t PRETTY WEDDING
IN SOCIAL GAFFNEY
GAFFNEY GIRL AND CHARLOTTE
MAN JOINED FOR LIFE.
The Nuptilals Wednesday Afternoon
of Miss Eve Gertrude Ross and Mr.
Harry Pritchard Shaw.
The marriage of Miss Eva Gertrude
Ross, of this city, to Mr. Harry Pritch
ard Shaw, of Charlotte N. C., in the
First Baptist church Wednesday after
noon was perhaps the most interest
ing social event that has taken place
in Gaffney for some time. Long be
fore the bridal party arrived the
church had been lilled with friends of
the young couple, not only from South
Carolina, but many from North Caro
lina and Georgia.
An attractive musical programme
was rendered before the ceremony
soclates and much admired wherever
she Is known. The groom is a son
of Mr. William E. Shaw, of Char
lotte, ami is well known and popular
there. He is a traveling salesman for
the Shaw Harness Company.
A pretty little incident occurred
when the bride had donned her going-
away gown, and, standing at the head
of the staircase, threw the bridal bou
quet to her maids, who were grouped
below. Miss Bessie Kendrick caught
the bouquet, which, they say, is a
sure indication that she will be the
next one to be led to the altar .
A Fatal Accident.
Frank Stanley, a young white man
of Asheville and employed by J. M.
English & Co., met with an accident
on the local yards of the Southern
Railway late Tuesday afternoon that
resulted in death shortly before mid
night that night. Young Stanley was
struck by the pilot of an engine,
knocked down, the front wheels of
the engine passing over his body,
severing both legs and otherwise in
juring him. The unfortunate man
was picked up in an unconscious con
dition and taken to the waiting room
of the station, and a physician sum
