that of Miss Sadie Edwards Richards,
of Liberty Hill, and Thomas Patterson
McCrae, of Denmark, solemnized
at the home of tne bride's father,
John G. Richards, on Thursday evenin
e- at. 8:20 o'clock.
Never was the old Southern home
with its long piazzas and its large,
spacious parlors more beautiful. The
entire lower floor was thrown together,
and Southern smilax was
draped in great profusion from the
walls and ceilings. Here and there
graceful ferns and tall stately palms
served to transform the halls, parlors
and dining room into a veritable
fairyland.
At the sound of the first notes of
Mendelssohn's wedding march, ren-i
dered by Miss Frank Richards, of Lib- j
erty Hill, Dr. C. M. Richards, uncle,
of the bride, and pastor at Davidson I

and Margaret Richards, sisters
of tho bride: Miss Julia McCrae. sis-!
ter of the bridesgroom, and Missj
Marguerita Tolbert, of Laurens, de-j
scended the stairs and took their
places about the improvised altar.
Their dresses were of white organdie
and net with satin girdles and they
carried large bouquets of Killarneyi
roses, tied with pink tulle. The maid;
of honor, Miss Keturah Richards, sis- \
ter of the bride, entered alone. She.
wore a lovely gown of net and satin,
over pink. The little ring bearer,!
Jean Richards, carried the ring in!
the heart of a beautiful white rose.
Just preceding the bride came the
two flower girls, Jane Leighton Richards,
of Davidson college, and Elizabeth
Jennings, of Winnsboro. They
scattered flowers from baskets in the
path of the bride, who entered on the
arm of her father and was given in J
marriage to the bridegroom at the)
altar, where he met her with his best!
man, Dr. Walter B. Gillam, of Den-j
mark. The bride was a vision of;
loveliness in her bridal gown of white
chiffon, taffeta and silk net, the skirt j
made short and full with tunic. A:
dainty wreath of orange blossoms
held her filmy veil in place. The
bridal bouquet, a shower of bride
roses and orange blossoms, completi
ed her toilet.
Standing under an arch of green;
and white, from which a large wed- :
ding bell was Suspended, the bride
and bridegroom made their vows.

brilliant reception to about 100
guests. Mrs. Virginia Clarke, of
Camden, and Mrs. R. C. Workman,
of Greenville, received the guests in
the dining room, where Misses Virginia
and Mildred Richards and Miss
