Times are hard and money is
“skase,” cotton is all, gathered
of
wife at the Baptist church in Per
ry, Wednesday morning, Decem
ber 4th, 1901. ,
Mrs. L. M. Paul was at the or
gan ; Dr. Braselton with cornet.
Miss Lula Houser sang “Love
Triumphant” in a delightful man
ner, introductory to the ceremo
ny-
In harmony with the sweet tones
of organ and cornet the ushers and
reception girls marched down the
middle aisle and occupied front
«seats. Then from the Baptistry
came the brides-maids, and
marched up the side aisles to the
front door, where they were join
ed by the groomsmen; and in
couples they marched d,own the
middle aisle and arranged them
selves on either side, in front of
the pulpit. Then came the mat
rons of honor,—the bride with
her brother, Mr. Hugh Lawson,
and the groom with his best man,
Mr. James Harrison.
Directly following the brides
maids from the Baptistry, came
the the pages and flower girls,-
small boys and girls beautifully
dressed in white; and they formed
a group near the pulpit just as
the bride aud groom met in front
of the minister and chancel.
Then in a most impressive man
ner the marriage ceremony was
pronounced by Rev. Albert S.
Dix, pastor of the Perry Baptist
church.
The church was beautifully dec
orated with palms and ferns,
while the bride and other ladies
of the party held beautiful flow
ers.
The attendants were: Miss Ida
Willingham with Mr, Alva Da
vis ; Miss Kate Martin with Mr.
Charles Reid; Miss Nora Ed
wards with Mr. Thomas Fields;
Miss Annie Wellons with Mr.
Duke Pearce; Miss Clara Dasher
with Mr. R. P. Ketchum; Miss
Louise Riley with Mr. Robert
Feagin; Miss Corine Baldwin with
Mr. Carl De Vaughn; Mrs. Hugh
Lawson and Mrs. B. L, Battle,
matrons of honor ;j Miss Rosa
lind Davis as maid of honor, and
Mr. James Harrison best man.
After the ceremony the invited
guests repaired to the home of
Mrs. C. T. Lawson, where an ele
gant reception was given. * The
bridal party left Perry on the af
ternoon train for their future
home at riiontezuma.
Ushers and reception girls:

Social circles and matrimonial
affairs are up-to-date.
We had a very interesting court
at Hayneville last Saturday. Cols
M. Kunz of Perry And M. S-
Means were on hand, and ex.
pounded the law in a graceful
style. Col. M. S. Means pawed
the floor and raised the dust;
whereupon Col. Kunz in reply
shook the court room and raised
the shingles from the roof. All
cases continued until the first
Saturday in January, 1902. The
high sheriff, J. W. Mercer, was
ordered by the Judges, F. C. Hen
derson and J, T. Ellis, to sell all
property levied on to pay costs,
Judge J, T, Ellis made a nice de
cision in a claim case, declaring
that he sustained the claim re
gardless of the form of law.
We were respectfully invited to
dinner to Judge J. T. Ellis’, in
company with Col. Kunz and en
joyed a good dinner. Col. Kunz
loves pot-liquor and greens.
• I will remember that little girl
for the nice .cake she gave me Sun

about it when she comes home
from Cordeie.

Where To Buy Mules.
The best place to buy anything
is where you can get > what you
want at the lowest price. Mr. C.
M. Branon, at 520 Popular street,
Macon, Ga., says he is ready to
prove that he sold good mules last
winter anff spring cheaper than
they coul^d be bought anywhere in
Georgia south of Atlanta. He is
at the front again this season,and
all he asks is that people who
want mules will see his animals
and hear his prices.
He sells horses also, but makes
a specialty of good mules at cheap
prices.
Remember the place, 520 Pop
lar street, Macon, Ga.

Prof. W. W. Driskell, Principal.
Misses Annie Holleman and Mary Kil-

This is a graded school of high order,
and under competent instructors it read
ily ranks with the best high schools of
the state.
The incidental fee must be paid in
cash to the secretary and treasurer of
the board, Mr. B. O. Holtzclaw, before
pupils will be permitted to enter the
school.
It will be more beneficial to the chil
dren, more agreeable to the teachers and
more satisfactory to the Board of Edu-
catiouand and parents if each child is
permitted to enter on the first day of the
term and not be allowed to miss even
one recitation during the entire session.
Good Board cgn be obfcaipqd in private
families at from $8 to $10 per month.
