HAPPY WEDDING TO OCCUR THIS EVENING
----------------------------
At the elegant new home of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. McMURRAY, in this place 
[Roanoke], at 9 o'clock this evening, their oldest daughter, Miss Edith, 
will be married to Mr. C. A. PYE. Rev. S. L. DOBBS will perform the 
ceremony. Miss Julia Belle BEVIS will play the wedding march, to the strains 
of which the betrothed will enter the parlor, preceded by Mr. D. B. LONG and 
Miss Linda BOULWARE.

After receiving the congratulations and good wishes of friends, Mr. and Mrs. 
PYE will take passage on the 10:45 A. B. & A. [Atlanta, Birmingham & 
Atlantic Railroad train] for Brunswick [GA], to spend a week at St. Simon's 
Island. Upon their return trip to Roanoke they will spend a few days with 
the groom's parents near Fort Valley, Ga.

Mr. PYE is ticket agent at the A. B. & A. depot, and is one of our most 
worthy young men. Both young people have many friends to wish them bon 
voyage through life.

[Excerpt from] ROANOKE LIVELY IN SOCIAL REALM
-----------------------
Last Thursday afternoon [25 May] the Philathea class, with Mrs. A. R. NOEL 
as hostess, gave a lawn party complimentary to their fellow-member, Miss 
Edith McMURRAY, who is soon to become Mrs. C. A. PYE. Among other 
interesting features was the presentation by the class to Miss McMURRAY of a 
handsome cut glass vase. This was gracefully done by Miss CHEWNING, the 
president.
