Laurinburg, N. C, April 3.
This evening at the home of the
bride's parents was solemnized
the marriage of Miss Ruby
Hynes McKay to Rev. William
Chas. Barrett, of Durham.
The occasion .was necessarily a
very quiet one owing to the re
cent death of the bride's brother,
but the scene was one of unusual
beauty. )'. The decorations ; con
sisted of potted plants and white
carnations, a lovely arch from
which a 'wedding bell was sus
pended " and under ; which the
bridal party stood was a feature.
The guests were met at the
door by Misses-Lelia 'May Gill, of
Laurinburg; Helen McLendon, of
Wadesboro, and L. Ruby Reid, of
Wake Forest. '
The ; bride came in with her
her maid of honor, Miss Robertta
Coble, of Laurinburg, and joined
thegrpom, who had proceeded
them with his best man. Mr.
W. H. Weatherspoon, Jr., of
Durham.
Mendlesshon's wedding march
was beautifully rendered by Mrs.
J. T. ' Fields, who entered with
the bride's brother, Mr. A. G. !
McKay, and while the bride's
pastor, Rev. W. H. Whitehead,
performed the impressive ring
ceremony she played' "The Flow
er Song.";
The bride was charmingly at
tired in a going away gown of
grey voile over taffeta with hat
and gloves to match and carried
bride's roses. The maid of honor
wore blue silk with hat to match
and carried white carnations.
The bride is a graduate of the
BaptkU University for- Women
and is one of the 'most popular
young women of the state.
The groom a graduate of Wake
Forest college and the" Southern
Baptist Theological Seminary, is
pastor of the Second - Baptist
church of Durham and is one of
the brightest and most promising
young men in the denomination.
Mr. and Mrs. Barrett arrived
in the city last week and are
for the present at the parson
age of the Second Baptist church,
having taken rooms with Mr.
and Mrs. E. J. Whitaker, with
whom Mr. Barrett has been liv
