Marriage of Miss Phinizy
and Mr. Henry B. Garrett
V
Never has there been celebrated In
Augusta or the vicinity a more beau
tiful marriage than was that of Miss
lsaetta Phinizy and Mr. Henry B. Gar
rett which took place last night ac
nine o'clock at Villa Marlon, the sum
mer home of the Stewart Phinizys in
Grovetown. The most exquisite taste
was evidenced in all the beautiful de
tails of the decorations and the entire
affair was one of flawless beauty.
Villa Marion was like nothing so
much as a gorgeous jewel set amid an
exquisite mosaiac of flowers, a tangle
or roses and honeysuckles, flowering
shrubs and the delicate green of vines.
The entire house was outlined in fairy
lights which . were used about the
piazzas, the windows and as high up
as the gables and amid the trees and
shrubbery of the grove about the house
were used hundreds of pink lantersn
with their alluring gleam. Indoors the
house was one mass of bloom. The
lower floor was massed in flowers,
roses and sweet peas, lilac blooms and
all the fragrant blossoms that are now
so beautifully abundant. In the big
reception hall with its pink hangings
the flowers were all in pink tones with
hundreds of pink sweet peas and roses,
with the lights all veiled in rose color
ed shades, and the mantel candles of
softest rose. The two rooms to the
right were in white and pink, pink in
the front room and pure white in the
rear where the altar was erected bo
lore which the ceremony was perform
ed. Forming an aisle from winding
stairway to the altar with its flower
and gleaming lights were white pedes
tals on which rested fancy baskets
filled with sweet peas, in the room in
which the ceremony was performed
pure white were used while those in
the hall and other drawing rooms were
in delicate pink tones. Bearden’s or
chestra. screened by palms, discoursed
a delightful musical program during
the arrival of the many guests and an
nounced the coming of the bridal par
ty with the opening strains of Lohen
grin’s wedding march. T{ie bridal
party which formed in the upper hall
descended the stairs in pairs and were
led by Miss Georgia Hull with Miss
Eleanor Teague, followed by Mr. Hen
ry Raworth with Mr. William T. Gary,
Miss Harriet Calhoun of Atlanta, with
Miss Marion Goldsmith of Atlanta,
Mr. Albert Davidson with Mr. Pendle
ton King, Miss Marion Phinizy with
Elizabeth Cozart. Mr. Bernard Stulb
with Mr. Irvin Branch, Miss Mary Lou
Phinizy with Miss Nellie Phinizy of
Athens, and Mr. Arthur Clarke of At
lanta, with Mr. Geddings Jowitt. These
slowly advanced to the altar and
grouped themselves picturesquely about
and awaited the entrance of the bride
who was attended by her father, and
directly preceded by her maid of hon
or, Miss Laura Tobin, who entered
alone. The groom with his best man,
Van Holt Garrett entered from the side
and met the bride at the altar*vvhere
the impressive ceremony of the Epis
copal church was performed by Rev.
G. Sherwood Whitney, of St. Paul’s.
Lovely beyond description was the
beautiful young bride in her gown of
lustrous satin completely enveloped in
a diaphonous mist of delicate tulle
embroidered In seed pearls, and finish
ished with duchesse lace. The' veil
was off the face and confined
to the dark hair in cap effect with a
coronet of orange blossoms. Her flow

Miss Tobin wore a beautiful gown
of pink taffeta, the narrow skirt of
which was finished with tiny pinked
ruffles and made with a puffed tunic.
The bodice was formed of silver lace
over delicate pink chiffon. With this
was worn silver slippers. Miss Tobin
carried an armful of long stemmed
Radiance roses. The other maids all
wore gowns of pink and white, the
skirts aeeordlan plaited and being

white lilacs were used exclusively on
the table, filling a large central silver
vase and also smaller vases which
formed a circle of bloom about the
centre.

in dainty little French bouquets for
the maids and pink rosebuds for the
men.
Other guests were served on tables
placed on the breezy piazzas, and still

Albany, Ga—Right Rev. F. F. Reese,
Episcopal bishop of Oeorgia, in pre

Bishop Reese says he cannot bring
himself to believe this would be the
safe and wise settlement of the vexed

Bishop Reese very earnestly advo
