Uiggs, which appeared in the Bristol Daily Herald of August 23 will be of interest to their many friends in North Carolina : "On Tuesday, August 21, 1906, Cold Spring Presbyterian church, Sullivan county, Tennessee, was the scene of marriage ceremony of unusually wide spread and much sincere interest. The great popularity of the contracting parties, Mr. Henry E. Biggs and Miss Nelle Pemberton, was sufficient within itself to furnish this ;but with this, and yet apart from it, the peculiarly a flee tionate identity and relationship of the bride to her community, which all the way from girlhood s innocent peri od to young womanhood has been dis tinct and positive in all things that make for the development of a beauti ful and noble character, loaned fresh charm to the occasion. "The hour was high noon : the day was typioal of late summer, with just enough clouds flecking tha sky to break and banish the heat of the sun. All that loving hearts could wish and tender bands could do bad been done in the way of decorations. And this goodly house of God had veritably been transformed into an edifice of ferns, palms, southern smilax and native evergreens. Symmetrically arranged above the altar were two immense arohes of evergreens, while in the rear and conforming thereto, were studied an hundred tapering candles that lighted up and gave added lustre to an already brilliant prospect. The entire interior of the church was scenic in appearance and was pleasing to look upon. "The following young ladies and gentlemen composed the bridal party : Miss Nan Cowan, of Holston valley ; Miss Leta Barrett Cassell,of Zanesville, Ohio ; Miss Ollie May King, of Breck inridge, Minnesota ; Miss Anna Claira Roove, of Bristol ; Miss Emma A.Bell, of Cloverdale, Tennessee, and Miss Mary Pemberton, of Holston Valley ; Dr. Henry Dulaney, of Blountville, Tennessee : Mr. Bruce Bushong, of Bristol, Tennessee ; Mr. Herman Black ley, of Bristol, Tennessee ; Dr. James A. White, of Williamston, North Caro- ina, and Mr. Lindsay Bunting, of Bristol, Tennessee. "Mls3 Lillian Foster Wallace, of Bristol, was maid of honor, and Mr. Richard G. Allabrook.of Tarboro, North Carolina, was best man. Down either aisle first a gentleman and then a lady alternating unat tended while entering retiring by couples and crossing right and left mmediately in front of the altar the party entered the church to the strains of Lohengrin's wedding march, which was skillfully rendered on the organ by Miss Irene McDowell, of Bristol, ac companied by the Bristol orchestra, and arranged itself about the altar. "During this and before Its conclu sion, Mrs. lajior uowan, oi .Bristol. with sweet, clear voice, beautifully sane "All For You." "The groom approached from the right entrance with his best man ; the bride was accompanied, to the altar by her brother, Mr. Tom Pemberton. "Here they were met by Rev. J. Al bert Wallace, of Bristol, the bride's pastor, who, with a ceremony replete with beauty aud tendsr though solemn injunctions in which the ring was used as a symbol to seal the covenant thus entered into, took their marriage vows and pronounced them 'no more twain but one.' "The bridesmaids were charmingly gowned in while net oyer green, with black picture bats and carried aspara gus ferns tied with green tulle. The mam of honor In white net over white with white picture hat and car rying white astors tied with green tulle, looked a perfect picture of petite femi nine grace and beauty as she preceded the bride to the altar. 'The groom and his attendants wore Prince Alberta with silk hats. "The bride, always comely in person and never appearing more so than this day, was bewitchingly gowned In a cre ation of white satin princess trimmed with old lace and pearls, in veil caught with a pearl and diamond brooch, the gift of the groom. She carried white brides roses tied with white satin rib bon. "Immediately upon the conclusion of the ceremony the entire party, to gether with numbers of lnyited guests, hurried back in carriages to the home of the bride's mother, Mrs. Sue C. Pemberton, where a wedding breakfast elaborate in detail and preparation and fit for the gods was served. The deco rations here were in perfect accord with the natural beauty of this elegant and ever hospitable home. "Mrs. Taylor Cowan, with remarka ble ease and skill, presided at the punch bowl, while Mrs. F. B. Bell served coffee on the lawn 'neath the foliage of a noble oak. "At six o'clock the party drove across the country to Bristol and were tbe guests of the groom at luncheon at HotelHamilton from 9 :30 to 11 :30 p.m. thoroughly enjoyable repast of all the delicacies and viands of the season ; after which tbe bride and groom 'mid a perfect shower of rice, good wishes and good-byes boarded the midnight train for Knoxville, Tennessee, thence on to the sapphire country of Western North Carolina and later to Canada on a bridal tour. "Tbe bride is the only daughter of Mrs. Sue C. Pemberton, of Holston Valley, and the number of ber friends is limited only by the number of her ac quaintances, not only here among her people who know her best, but also in North Carolina, Georgia, and other Southern States. "She is cultured, accomplished and finely endowed with a sweet Christian character of wonderful pqnlpoise. "The groom is of an honorable and distinguished North Carolina family no less honorable than distinguished for all the virtues and manly traits of character that make up ideal citizen ship. He himself has won distinction in the insurance world, and is at pres ent located at Raleigh, North Carolina, with the Mutual Life of New York, where ho is both prominent and uni versally esteemed."
