| Headline | Todd & Carter Married |
| Text | Married, Sunday, Nov 3, at the residence of the bride's parents on Kings Prairie, D. Todd and Miss S. G. Carter, Rev. Qualls officiating. About 10 o'clock a.m. the invited guests began to assemble at the residence of Squire Carter and before 11 o'clock the house was filled. A few minutes after 11 the bride and groom entered the sitting room and the impressive ceremony was performed, which made them one. The bride never appeared to better advantage. She was dressed in a cream-colored Henrietta made in the lutes style trimmed in white satin ribbon and white lace. In her hair she wore a small bouquet of white chrysanthemums and pink geraniums. After receiving the congregations of their friends they prepared to the New Liberty church, where an able discourse was delivered by Rev. Dutton, after which they returned to the bride's home to partake of the sumptuous dinner prepared by the bride's mother. The next morning a number of guests assembled at Mr. J. Todd's to spend a short time in a social manner, and join at the dinner table to do amble justice to what the groom's mother had so liberty and nicely arranged. |
