EARLY MORNING MARRIAGE
FAI8?N-KIKKW00?.
For some days thc cards have announ
ced the marriage of Dr. Julius A. Faison
to Miss Jessie Kirkwood. This happy
event took place at the elegant homo of
R. L. Kirkwood in Rast Beunettsvllle,
thc brother of the bride, on Wednesday
morning nt 6 o'clock, December 11th.
On account of the early morning hour
of this marriage, Mr. and Mrs R. Lee
Kirkwood gave a reception Tuesday eve

groom. This elegant social function was
served at 6 o'clock, and when the editor
of'the DEMOCRAT arrived thc Kirkwood
home was elegantly lighted with electri
city and the entire premises was envel
oped in nu atmosphere of gaiety and
good cheer. The wedding presents were
on exhibition in thc parlors, and never
have I witnessed a prettier, more costly
and numerous collection of gifts from the
many friends of the popular contracting
parties-many of them from out of town
friends.
Misses Pollock of Cheraw, and Hen
derson of Waltcrboro, S. C., cousins of
the bride, met the guests at the door, as
sisted by Mr. Kirkwood, and conducted
them into thc parlors.
At 6.30 supper wa? announced, the
long table extending diagonally across
the spacious dining room. The good
things were served by polite and atten
tive servants in several courses, and it
has rarely been my good fortune to enjoy
such an elaborate repast, of all the good
and rare things so bountifully served on
this occasion.
The following persons were present
and enjoyed the festivities of the occasion
Dr. J. A. Faison, Miss Jessie Kirkwood,
Miss Sallie Henderson of Waltcrboro, S.
C., Miss Annie Maie Ricaud, Mr. Edwin
Gully, Norfolk, Va., Mr. Rob't Ricaud,

the beautiful Methodist marriage cere
mony, which made them one. The min
ister stood within a crescent of ferns and
pot plants, and as soon as congratulations
were extended the couple were driven to
the Coast Line Depot where they boarded
the 7 o'clock train for points in Florida.
The DKMOCHAT wishes them a happy and
joyous trip and safe return home to their
friends.
