Beautiful Marriage of Miss Brit
tingham and Mr. Otro W. Hinson
One of the most beautiful home
weddings that has occurred in Au
gusta, and one marked by an unusual
elaborateness, was that of Miss Mary
Grace Brittingham and Mr. Otho Wil
liam Hinson, of Atlanta' which was
solemnized at six o'clock yesterday
afternoon at the handsome Britting
ham home, on upper Broad Street, the
ceremony, which was impressively
performed by Father Macready, S. J.,
assisted by Father Lonergan, S. J.,
being followed by a reception at which
the good wishes of an hundred and
fifty or more friends were received;
additional sentiment being given to
the occasion by the fact that it was
the anniversary of the mariage ot
the bride’s parents.
The handsome Brittingham home
was ablaze with light and adorned
with hundreds of Easter lilies which
with palms and bamboo made an ef
fective background for the handsome
gowns worn by the guests. Hundreds
of Easter lilies in all their purity
were used. Mantel vases were filled
with lilies, cabinets, book cases and
buffet were adorned with lilies, and
wherever artistic taste could sug
gest or the eye rest there was the
fragrant beauty of lilies.
As the blended strains of piano and
violin from the skilled fingers of Mrs.
Samuel Battle and Senor Andonegui,
pealed through the rooms the bridal
entourage swept down the winding
stairway, crossed the reception hall
and entered through the front drawing
room to the rear drawing room to
the improvised altar which had been
reared of palms and cathedral candles
and lilies. First came the ribbon
baerers, six small girl friends
of the bride, Misses Margaret
O’Connor. Mary Doris, Eugenia
Conlon, Nan Armstrong, Loretta
O’Leary and Louise O’Connor, who
wore dainty little dresses of lace and
carried the satin ribbons that formed
the aisle for the bridal party. Next
came the ushers. "Mr. Lewis' W. -Dixon
with Mr. Thomas H. Brittingham, who
were Tolllwed by the bride’s maid,
Miss Susie Brittingham, who entered
with Mr. Vernon Tork. .of Charleston,
and who was very girlish and
pretty in a gown of white net made
with a double tunic from which fell
a frill of delicate lace, and finished
with a crushed girdle of - soft white
satin which was caught in a graceful
..bow just below the tunic. Her flow
ers were a shower of white sweet
peas, and caught in the prettily ar
ranged coiffure was a spray of sweet
peas.
Next to advance down the satin
barred aisle was the maid-of-honor,
Miss Anita Brittingham, who enter
ed alone wearing a handsome gown
of white satin striped flesse fash
ioned with a graceful train and tunic.
A girdle of satin banded the waist
and a short tulle v.ei! held by a satin
bandeau completed this becoming
toilette. Miss Brittingham carried an
armful of lilies.
The bride entered with her father,
and was directly preceded by her
small brother. Master George L. Brit
tingham, who cnvri- .1 the golden cir-
M on a whit" satin cushion.
The rroom entered from th" rear
under the escort of his best man, Mr.
Beniamin F. Be-r'"'l, of Atlanta, ana
met the bride at the altar.
The bride was very girlish and love
)v in her wedding gown of heavy
w bite bridal channelise with long court
train, and tunic and bodice of exquis
ite princess lace finished with pearls.
The long tulle veil which completely
enveloped the graceful figure was
held to the hair by a Castle cap of
princess lace trimmed with valley
lilies. No bouquet was earired but
Instead the bride carried a white satin
bound prayer book, a piece of her
wedding gown forming the covers,

and depending from it was a graceful
little shower of valley lilies that was
used for a marker.
During the impressive ceremony ac
cording to the ritual of the Catholic
Chilrcb. Miss Margaret Battle’s ex
quisite voice was effectively heard in
de Koven’s “O Promise Me.”
After the ceremony and congratula
tions had been received the guests
adjourned to the dining room where
an elaborate supper was served. The
bride’s table was very lovely and was
covered with a cloth of cluny lace
over green satin. In the center was
a large cut glass vase filled with
Easter lilies which were repeated in
the decorations of the cakes and bon
bons. especially handsome and elab
orate being the bride's cake with its
flowers that rivaled nature's. Stream
ers of delicate mist-like tulle were
suspended from the central chande
lier to the four corners of the room,
giving the appearance of the entire
room being canopied with tulle. Hand
some cut glass candelabra held gleam
ing green and silver shaded candles,
and elegant comports and trays were
filled witi bonbons and con
fections done in white and green
Easter lilies, the entire ser
vice of the exquisitely appoint
ed table being of glittering cut
glass, in the elaborate supper serv
ed the lily idea was carried out most
artistically throughout the several
courses.
The very delightful popularity that
both bride and groom enjoy was tes
tified to by the unusually large num
ber of elegant gifts dispalyed in one
of the upper rooms.
Mrs. Hinson is the second daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. T. G. Brittingham
and there is no young woman in Au
gusta who more merits the love in
which she is held by all who know her
and her removal to Atlanta will be a
decided loss to Augusta’s social and
musical circles. She has been a dili
gent pupil of the masters for several
years, having only recently completed
a course in a well known school of
Nashville, Tenn. Not only is she tal
ented musically, but she possesses a
mind that sparkles and scintillates,
and the happy nature and disposition
that is as beautiful as it is rare.
Mr. Hinson is a descendant of one
of South Carolina’s best old families
and has a character and personality
that makes him worthy of his dainty
young bride. Mr. Hinson is district
manager of the Atlanta branch of a
large New York corporation, and al
though quite young, has already made
wanderful strides in the business
world.
Mr. and Mrs. Hinson will be the
guests of Mr. and Mrs. Brittingham
for a week-end and will upon their
going to Atlanta make their home in
Inman Park.
Mrs. Brittingham received her
guests wearing a superb gown of
white satin with draperies of black
chiffon, finished with cut jet and bril
liants. and graciously dispensed tne
hospitality that is such an inherent
1 art of her nature.

Wells and Mr. Paul Hill Slade was a
beautiful event of yesterday afternoon,
taking place at the home of the bride
in North Augusta and being attended

and groom and a very few close friends
only. The ceremony was performed
by Rev. C. E. Peele, of Grace Methodist
church.
There were no. attendants and the
bride entered with the groom and wore a
stylish tailored suit of tango cloth
worn with accessories to correspond,
and carried a shower of bride roses.
Despite the fact that no cards had
