WEDDING DELIS
RINCJERBILY,
Mr. Brown and Miss Wood
Are Made One.
A BEAUTIFUL WEDDING.
The* Cbnri-li Wan (Tmv.lvil to the Doom by
The FrlemiH of the Contracting I’artlcx—
A Reception at the Ifoinc of the Itrbte
anil (.room.
One of the prettiest weddings that
has taken place in (Laffney this sea
son took place at the first Baptist
Church Wednesday evening. It was
a social event that will long be re
membered in this city. Although
the weather was inclement every
nook and corner in the prettily dec
orated church was filled to overflow
ing long before the hour announced
for the ceremony to be performed.
The ushers were taxed to their full
est extent to provide seats for the
throng and many there were who
were compelled to stand.
Promptly at 8:80 the strains of
Mendelssohn’s wedding march peeled
forth from the’orgun. Mr. Westrope
was the organist and he never played
better. The buzz of conversation
that had been going on ceased and all
eyes were turned toward the entrance.
First came the ushers, then the at
tendants and then the bride and
groom. Never was bridal couple
more composed. They marched down
tht right aisle and were met on the
rostum by the Rev. B. P. Robertson
who invoked God’s blessing on the
ordinance and then began the cere
mony which made the couple hus
band and wife. During the cere
mony Miss Carroll sang in a sweet,
tender strain “Oh promise me.” At
the conclusion of the ceremony the
bride and groom descended the ros
tum and left the church by the left
aisle. They were followed by the
attendants in regular order.
The church was very pretty dec
orated with ferns and evergreens.
From the chundalier swung five
streamers that led to different points
on the walls. The rostum and aisles
were covered with white. The rear
of the rostum was banked with ferns
and evergreens, before which was a
pair of candlesticks in which were
burning candles that gave it a pretty
eflect. The organ was literally cov
ered with evergeens and almost com
pletely shielded Mr. Westrope and
Miss Carroll. Just before ascending
the rostum the bride and groom
passed under an archway of ever
greens from which was suspended
B. W. in large golden letters. This
signified that the bride elect entered
as Beona Wood. On descending they
passed under a similar archway from
which was suspended B. B., which
signified that she was then Beona
Brown.
The bride was attired in an elegant
wedding gown of white satin and was
as a pretty as apicture. The groom
wore the conventional black and was
altogether manly and dignified.
The attendants were Miss Nellie
Wood and Mr. Thos. L. Brown, Miss
Mary Brown and Mr. James W.
Brown, of Cowpens, Miss Ida Wood
and Mpynard Smith, Miss Florence
Griffith and Mr. Wardlaw Moorman.
The ushers were Cut. J. G. Wardlaw,
Dr. J. N. Nesbitt, Dr. C. T. Lip
scomb, Messrs. D. C. Ross, T. B.
Clarkson and J. E. McArthur.
When the bridal party reached the
vestibule of the church they entered
carriages and were driven to the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Brown on
Limestone Avenue, where a reception
was held. The house was packed
with the friends of the young couple.
Refreshments were served and con
gratulation extended. The presents
were numerous and consisted of gold
and silverware, useful and arnamen-
tal pieces of bousehould goods, etc.
An hour or so was most delightfully
spent and those in attendance were
reluctant to withdraw.
The bride is one of Gaffney’s favor
ites. She is a lady of sweet and
amiable disposition and has won her
way into the hearts of all by her un
selfish devotion to her friends and
her kindness towards the poor and
needy. The groom is a most estima
ble young gentleman, a true friend
to his friends and will no doubt
make an ideal husband. The friends
of both will wish them all manner of
good fori une and a longlife of hap
piness.
Among those from other places
who were in attendance upon the
wedding were: Mrs. J. N. Cudd and
children, Mr. Robert Cudd and Mr.
A. 1’. Cudd, of Spartanburg, the
guests of Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Car
penter; Dr. and Mrs. B. R Brown, of
Racolet, the guests of Mr. Moses
Wood; Messrs. Horace and Ben Hill
Brown, of Cowpons, the guests of Mr.
and Mrs. R. S. Lipscomb, Miss Mol-
lio Brown, of I’acolet, the guest of
Miss Nellie Wood. Miss Idell Brown
and Master Taul Brown, sister and
brother of the groom, came over from
Spartanburg for the wedding.

Drummer Moiinlaln.
Out about one mile to the north
east of the city limits stands Drum
mer Mountain, a commanding eleva
tion above the city which is aid to
have been named “Drummer” be
cause a man Gibson, who was a
drummer in the American army dur
ing the Revolution onced lived on it,
and was after the war called “Drum
mer Gibson.” [He has many de
scendants still living in this section.]
Drummer Mountain is one of the
finest sites in Gaffney surroundings.
The assent from every direction is
graded to the summit, which is a fine
plateau of considerable extent.
Drummer Mountain will be in de
mand some day. When some rich
man who has retained a sense of the
beautiful begins look around for
some spot to beautify and Jtake a long
intended rest. Then will Drummer
-Mountain bob up higher and its
splendid possibilities be utilized.
Parsnip Coaplailon.
It does not require an expert to de«
tect the sufferer from kidney trouble.
The hollow cheeks, the sunken eyes,
the dark, puffy circles under the eyes
the sallow parsnip-colored complex
ion indicates it.
A physician would ask if you had
rheumatism, a dull pain or ache in the
back or over the hips, stomach trou
ble, desire to urinate often or a burn
ing or scalding in passing it; if after
passing there is an unsatisfied feel
ing us if it inu^t be at once repeated,
or if the urine has a brick dust de
posit or strong odor.
When these symptoms are present,
no time should be lost in removing
the cause.
Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh
of the bladder, infisination, causing
stoppage, ami sometimes requiring
the drawing of llm urine with instru
ments. or may run into llrighi’s dis
ease, the most dangerous slage of
kidney trouble.
Dr. Kilmer’s .Swamp-Root, the
great discovery of the eminent kid
ney and bladder specialist, is a posi
tive remedy for such diseases. Its
reputation is world-wide and it is so
easy to get at any drug store that no
one need suffer any length of time for
want of it.
However, If you prefer to first test
Its wonderful merits, mention The
Ledger and write to Dr. Kilmer Jl Co.,
Binghamton, N. Y. for a sample hot-
Me and book telling all about it, both
sent absolutely free by mall.

Bond, Dellinger, Byursville and Maud.
By this arrangement all the post-
offices In western Cherokee will have

business stand point, seems a neces
sity.

Several gentlemen interested in the
future welfare of Gaffney have deter
mined to make an effort to form a
municipal league. The object of
the leauge will bo to promote the so
cial welfare of the working people of
