Six O’clock.
Sunday evening at 0 o’clock at the
home of the bride’s parents on Chero
kee avenue Mr. Lawrence Workman
and Miss Ida Sanders were united in
the holy bonds of matrimony by Rev.
Arch C. Cree. The ceremony was
performed in the tastefully decorated
parlor in the presence of a number of
friends of the contracting parties.
Sheriff W. W. Thomas and Miss Belle
Jolly and Mr. Frank Jordan and Miss
Clara Tillotson were the attendants.
The bride was attired in a becoming
suit of grey trimmed in white satin.
The bridesmaids wore white organdie.
The gentlemen wore the conventional
black. The little group made a pretty
picture to look upon. After the cer
emony the bride and groom and in
vited guests repaired to the dining
room, where a feast of good things
awaited their attention. Mrs. San
ders, the bride’s mother, is a good old
mother in Israel, and hud left noth
ing undone to promote the happiness
and comfort of the occasion. She en
tertained royally in her good old
motherly way and made ail feel per
fectly at home.
The bride is a daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Monroe Sanders, well and favor
ably known in this community, and
is a sweet little woman who will add
joy and happiness to the life of the
young gallant who has won her Mr.
Workman is a juiet, industrious
young man employed by the Gaffney
Manufacturing Company and will
doubtless prove worthy of the trust
imposed in him.
The Ledger joins their many friends
in extending them best wishes for a
long, prosperous and happy married
life.
Mayor'll Court.
His Honor only had a few Sunday
sinners before him yesterday morn
ing, and from a monetary standpoint
it was nothing to brag on. But some
good resulted. His Honor sent one
culprit to the county’s good road
class. One case was referred to Mag
istrate Phillip’s court. It will bo
heard from later.
Mr. K. M. <>alTney KeniKiiH.
Mr. It. M. Gaffney, the only agent
the Southern Railway has ever had
at their depot in this city, he having
held the position for nearly thirty
years, has resigned and will be suc
ceeded by Mr. A. L. Palmer, of the
State of Iowa.
Mr. Gaffney is one of our foremost
citizens and has made a most careful
and enterprising officer. He has al
ways been as accomodating to the
public as was consistent with the in
terest of the railway company. While
he always recognized the rights of
the public, the interests of his com
pany was his main thought, and
faithfully has he guarded and pro
tected them. His many friends here
would be glad for him to retain his
old post, but all recognize that after
so long a tour of “duty so faithfully
performed” he is entitled to a rest,
and all wish him happiness and suc
cess in any new field of business he
may enter.
We welcome Mr. Palmer to our ris
ing city and trust that his stay with
us may be both pleasant and profit
able.

a long illness, in her fortieth year,
