H. Pierson. The groom is a prominent young man of Illawara, La., and is a nephew of Mr. C. D. Pierson, popular traveling man, who comes into Vicksburg. The ceremony was performed by Dr. H. Sansom in his usual impressive manner. Mr. C. D. Pierson gave the bride away. We congratulate Mr. Pierson upon winning such a fair bride and wish for them the choicest of blessings and a life of happiness with but few adverse clouds, to break the monotony of continued sunshine.
