n Midgett Gilbert Seven o'clock Wednesday, March 6th, was the beginning of an ideal spring day., Ere the first rays of the morning Bun had lighted the eastern hills the in habitants of our usually quiet little city were astir, and soon began to gather at 807, Washing ton Street, the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. Wiggins Gilbert where, at 7:15 their charming daughter. Miss Blanche Whealon Gilbert, became the bride of Mr. Henry S. iuidgttt The parlor was beautifully dec orated in ferns, ivy, potted plants and natural flowers. The golden rod, plum and apple blossoms filled the room with sweet per fume of orchard and hill-side. while the'birds in the trees with out added sweet anthems of mel ody to the scene within. At the appointed hour the cur tains were drawn and from nu merous tapirs flickered soft lights sparkling by the reflection of an hundred chandaliers. An altar of purity had been erected and decorated near the center of the room; before it a white mat, upon which stood Rev . N. Harrison, pastor of the M. E Church. From the reception hall came the sweet strains of the piano under the artistic touch of Miss Zola McConnico, while the soft, musical v:ice of Miss Virgie Rodwell rendered "Dawning." As the last note died away the bridal couple crossed the recep tion hall and entered the parlor to the soft strains of Lohngrin'sj Bridal March, while the minister in that soft, loving tone so nat ural to the man, solemnly and impressively performed the cere mony, as the swett notes of "Souvenir" drifted out upon the still morning air. The bride, beautiful at all times, never looked sweeter than on this occasion, attired in a neat fitting costume of brown cloth and chiffons with hat and gloves; to match, while the groom looked his best in a tailored suit of con ventional black. Immediately after the cere mony the bridal party were driv en to the A. C- L. depot where they boarded the West bound train. The groom is known to us as a Plymouth boy ; jolly, good n tured, big hearted Henry Mid gett, now a trusted employe of the government at Norfolk, Va. The bride has a large circle of social and business friends, with a voice full of power and music; trained to lead choirs, with beau ty of face and character that goes to the making of a social belle. Experienced in banking for years as book-keeper at the Bank of Plymouth, and later as assistant Cashier of Washington County Bank, she became a favorite with our people and will be sadly -missed in the church, social and commercial life of our town. In offering our best wishes and congratulations tD this happy couple whose lives since ,child hood have been lived one for the other as sweethearts, we com mend them to tha care of new friends in their adopted home.
