Exum, who was called to Elm Citv a few days aeo account of the sickness of the little child of Mr. J. W. Watson, returned home Tuesday evening to look after her little boy who has measles. We were pleased to meet ex-Sheriff A. B. Baines in town Tuesday and to see him looking so hale and hearty at his advanced age. He was elected Sheriff in 1848 and served eight years making orfe of the best Sheriffs the county ever had. The town officers elected on Mon day are all Democrats and are : B. F. Taylor, Mayor ; J.

The burglary case from Rocky Mount was tried on Tuesday and the three negroes : Walter Moore, Joe Perdue and Asa Saunders go to the penitentiary. X. X, X. Last Thursday dawned fair and bright and the sun shone resplend ently down upon a happy party of Wil sonians who boarded the "Shoo Fly" train hi re, bound for LaGrange to be presei.; at the marriage of their friend and p pular prosperous towns man, Mr. Arthur S. Copeland, who was to wed, at four o'clock that ai ternoon, M.ss Hattie Wootten, one of LaGrange's fairest daughters. Those who went- from Wilson were : Dr. J. H. Cordon, Dr. W. S. Ander son, Dr. E. K. Wright, Messrs Her bert Rountree, R. B. Whitehead, J. M. Wagner, S. A. Woodard, R. E. Copeland, C. F. Wilson, of Wilson, and N. E. Edgerton, of Selma. Ar riving at Goldsboro, carriages were in waiting for the party and soon we were all driving through the fertile fields which lay between the two towns. It was a merry party and the glorious spring day was enjoyed to the fullest extent. An elegant dinner was en joyed at the Fields Hotel, and all ar rangements for the happy nup tials consummated. At three o'clock the doors i of the Methodist Protestant church were thrown open and friends and relatives were shown to seats. Before the hour appointed the church was comfortably hilled. Promptly at the hour appointed the orgari, so ably presided over by Mrs. C. P. Barrow, pealed forth the familiar tones of the wedding march and the bridal party entered the church in the following order : Rev. Dr. J. H. Cordon and Dr. W. S. Andeison down the central aisle, followed by J. M. Wagner and R. B. Whitehead ; then came down each side aisle Her bert Rountree and S. A. Woodard, followed by the ushers, D. H. Crock ett and C. F. Wilson, E. K. Wright and N. E. Edgerton ; the brides maids, Misses Lillian Dillon and Nan nie Darden came down the central aisle, attended on each side aisle by Arthur Wootten and Sam Wootten ; the groom came down the right aisle on the arm of his brother, K. h.. Copeland,. and took his position in front of Dr. Cordon, where he was joined by the bride who came down the central aisle supported by her Maid of Honor, Miss Hattie Bynum. The party were gracefhlly grouped about the altar and Dr. Cordon very touchingly and impressively pro nounced the words that linked to gether two fond lives forever and aye. It was a tender scene. 1 here, in the presence of assembled relatives and friends, in God's Holy Temple, amid the hush and solemnity of the auspicious occasion, these two young people calmly and lovingly plighted their troth and took upon themselves everlasting vows. After the ceremony the party took . seats in the waiting carriages to be driven to the home of the bride to say the final adieus. But before they could leave the church many friends crowded around to extend congratula tions and hearty good wishes, and it must have been an attestation of affection and esteem extremely gratifying to the fortunate groom and his lovely bride. The church was beautifully decor ated. The pulpit was a great pyra mid of evergreens and flowers and a lovely arch, with two significantly interwoven hearts suspended from its kevstone. graced the window in the rear, while in on corner steod a harp woven of flowers, symbolical of the "concord of sweet sounds" to the music of which their lives are forever attuned. The entire party, after bidding farewell to the immediate family, left at once for Goldsboro, where the haDDV couple boarded the "Shoo Fly" for a tour to Northern cities. They were the recipients ot many handsome and valuable presents. The gToom is a popular, pros nerous voung man of Wilson and the bride is a lovelv woman, admired in her own home for her sweet dis position, many virtues, and excellent traits of character. The Advance is most sincerely hannv in extending its best wishes 1 I J - e . and hones life mav have in store tor j j them all the happiness they pate. (SPECIAL COR. TO THE ADVANCE).
