SWEET WEDDING BELLS.
THEY HANGOUT MERRILY LAST
EVENING.
Mr. William Fletcher Smith and Miss
Freelove Henry Jefferies Uni
ted in the Holy Bonds
of Wedlock.
PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS.
YOU ARE INVITED
The Presbyterian Church in this
city is one of the most beautiful lit
tle edifices in the country but it never
presented a prettier or more lovely
appearance than it did last evening.
The occasion was the uniting in the
holy bonds of wedlock of Mr. William
Fletcher Smith and Miss Freelove
Henry Jefferies, two of Gaffney’s
most popular young people. At 8:30
o'clock, the hour set fur the cer
many, the church was filled with
friends and admirers of the young
couple and it was hut a moment later
that the soft sweet tones from the
organ, as Prof. Waller Chambers
deftly handled the keys and the de
lightful strainsof Mendelssohn's wed
ding march of de Koven’s ’’Oh prom
ise me,” floated out upon the u ; r and
announced the arrival of tiie wedding
party. What had previously been a
chatter-box now became silent, noth
ing save the strains of the music was
to be heard as the wedding party pro
ceeded down the isle. First in order
came the u.-hers—Messrs. C. W.
Moorman, William Johnson, Lucian
Hopper and Misses Ethel V. Nance,
Hessie Dent and Fannie Fort. '1 hose
were followed by the attendants on
the bridal couple—Mr. Tlios. Drown
and Miss Rosa Gaffney, Mr. John
Smith and Miss Addie McArthur,
Mr. Hope Whyte and Miss Ida E.
Wood, Mr. Joe McArthur and .Miss
Sarah Jefferies. Next came the little
flower girls—Helen Gooding. Daisy
Wilkins and Sarah Carpenter—who
looked as preGy as could be and acted
their parts like veterans. Then came
the bride and groom. And ne’er d d
bride look more lovely. Attired in
a neatfitting and becoming wedding
dress of Duchess satin she bore in her
hands a boquet of bridal roses and
ma ; o!en hair ferns, presenting a pic
ture fit for an artist. The crown was
artistically caught with orange blos
soms and her wealth of golden tresses
showed to beautiful effect. The
groom was attired Jin the convention
al black cutaway and presented a
handsome appearance.
As the couples came in and ar
ranged themselves around the alter
which had been decorated with a
bank of Spanish moss, palms, ferns,
cut liowers and chrysanthemums,
every eye became strained to catch a
glimpse of the bridal party and every
ear was nerved to catch the voice of
the Man of God us he pronounced
them man and wife. When the Rev.
T. M. Dent had concluded the cere
mony the Rev. G. E. Robertson in
voked devine blessing upon the oc
casion, the organ peeled forth
Lohengrin’s Bridal March “Fuithfu’
and true,” and the party retired to
the home of the grooms parents, Mr.
and Mrs. W. H. Smith, corner Race
and Johnson streets, where a recep
tion and supper was tendered the
gay and festive party. The supper
was in every respect an ideal one and
the evening was most pleasantly
spent. It was in the small hours of
the approaching dawn when the
guests retired to their respective
homes.
7 HE COSTUMES.
The young ladies composing the
bridal party were exceedingly pretty
and most becomingly attired. The
following is an inadequate description
of the costumes:
Miss Rosa Gaffney—Point lace over
pink silk.

gandie over white taffeta silk.
Miss Sarah Jefferies—White organ
die over white taffeta silk.

THE PRESENTS.
The presents were numeious and
consisted of valuable and costly gold
and silver ware and other useful
presents suitable for such an occa
sion.
This was the first church wedding
in the city in several years and the
occasion will go down as one of the
social events in society circles.
The young couple have the heart
felt wishes of a host of admiring
friends who wish them long life and
much happiness.
