PRETTY HOME WEO- DliiG WEDNESDAY, A Pacolet Man Weds One of Gaffney’s Fair Maidens. A POPULAR COUPLE. The Ceremony Was Performed at the Home of the Itride's Parents by Kev. It. P. Koberlson In the Presence of Only a Pew Friends of the llrlde and Groom. There was u very pretty home wed ding Wednesday evening at the resi dence of Prof. It. O. Sams on Victoria avenue, when Miss Minnie Lou Sams, of this city, was united in marriage to Mr. Walton Whitnor Brown, of Paco- let. It was strictly a home wedding, and the ceremony was performed by Rev. B. P. Robertson in the presence ot only a few close friends of the bride and groom. The room in which the marriage vows were spoken was tastefully and exquisitely decorated with roses and ferns, and the handsome garbs and still handsomer faces of the bridal party, added to the artificial beauty of the surroundings, all conspired to form a scene of entrancing loveliness. After the wedding ceremony came the supper, which was composed of all the delicacies and good f hings to eat that the most dainty and fastidi ous epicure could desire. The bridesmaids were Misses An nie Miller, Ida Brown and Addie Sams, the last two being the sisters of the groom and bride respectively ; and the groomsmen were Messrs. Willie Poole and H. A. Meetze, of Pacolet Mills, and Louis Hagood, a cousin of the bride, of King’s Moun tain, N. C. The bride is next to the youngest daughter of Prof. R. O. Sams. She is a young lady who pos sesses many personal attractions and many amiable qualities both of heart and mind. SJie is.cultured and re fined to the highest degree and is very popular in the social circles of our city. The groom is a descendant of one of the oldest and most prominent families of this section of the coun try. He is a manly young man of many noble traits of character and is loved and respected by his associates. He is at present a trusted employee in the ekrical department of the Pacolet Manufacturing Company and stands high in the esteem of his employers. These happy young people etart out in their new life under the most favorable auspices They have youth, health, love, friends and everything that tends to the promotion of hap piness, and their pathway appears bright and smooth before them Their many friends and admirers wish for them a happy and prosper ous life, in which The Ledger hear tily joins. Mr. and Mrs. Brown left for Paco let shortly after the ceremony, which place they will make their future home. A NEW INDUSTRY. The GHiruefr I.lve $tn,:k Company lias li©<-u OrgunixfU.

We regret to learn of the death of Mr. John F. Crawley which occurred Tuesday afternoon at his home near Roebuck, in Spartanburg county. He was the father of Dr. S B. Craw ley, of this city, and had lived to see a ripe old age, though he had been in ill health for a long time. We take the following from the Spartanburg Journal of the 16th inst: “John F. Crawley died at his home near Roebuck yesterday, after a long and painful illness. He was about 70 years of age. The funeral was at Bethlehem Baptist church today. Ho leaves four sons and two daugh ters. Mr. Crawley was a man who pre served all his life the strongest friend ship and confidence of the people. He was a man all trusted and liked to deal with. An incident in the life of Mr. Crawley is worthy of mention. His father came to this county from North Carolina in the 30’s and bought the valuable estate on which the lately deceased spent most of his life. The senior Crawley disappear ed, it was thought, by foul means, when the son was a small boy. One Littlejohn, through some machina tions, succeeded in getting hold ot the property. When he became of age, John F. Crawley entered suit for the property and the case became one of the most interesting In the history of the courts. Simpson Bobo represented young Crawley and in this case brought himself to the head of the bar. The great Judge O’Neale presided, and it is on record that he said that if bones could be found on the place, Littlejohn could be convicted of murder. John F. Crawley won the case." Wood’s Seeds.

BOILS CARBUNCLES These unwelcome visitors usually appear in the spring or summer, when the blood is making an extra effort to free itself from the many impurities that have accumulated during the winter months. Carbuncles, which are more painful and dangerous, come most freo iently on the back of the neck, eating great holes in the flesh, exhaust the strength and often prove fatal. 'Boils are regarded by some j)eople as blessings, and they patiently and uncomplainingly endure the pain and inconvenience under the mistaken idea that their health is Wing benefftted, that their blood is too thick anyway, and this is Nature’s plan of thinning it. The blood is not too rich or too thick, but is diseased—is full of p Baneful Boils is full of poison—and ig of serious internal Many an old sore, running ulcer, Dangerous Carbuncles Mr. R. M. Pratt, Cave, S. C.. writes : “For twenty years X was sorely afflicted with l«>ils and carbuncles caused by impure blyod. It is impo. •ible to describe my suffering ; part of the time being unable to work or sleep. Several doctors treated me, and I tried all the so-called blood remedies, but nothing seemed to do me any good. During the summer of 188S I was per suaded to try 8. S. S., amlaftertaking several bottles wa > entirely cured, and have had no return of these painful pests up to the present time." »P unless relieved the entire system will suffer. The boil or carbuncle gives warning of serious internal troubles, which are only waiting for a favorable opportunity to develop. even cancer, is the result of a neglected boil. Keep the blood pure, and it will keep the skin clear of all the irritating impurities that cause these painful, disfiguring diseases. S. S.
