The Beacham-Smoot Wedding at Portsmouth, Va.
   St. Paul’s Church, Portsmouth, Va., was the scene
of a very pretty wedding Thursday afternoon, the
contracting parties being Miss Mamie M. Beacham, of
Craney Island, Va., daughter of Gunner E.J. Beacham,
of the U.S. Navy, and Mr. F.P. Smoot, of this city.
The ceremony was performed by Rev. Father Hanly, after
which the bridal party proceeded to the steamer George
Leary for this city. A wedding breakfast was served at
the residence of the groom’s father, at which were the
members of the family. The bride was attired in a very
pretty traveling dress of gold brown and Henrietta
cloth. The groom is the son of Mr. John W. Smoot, of
East Washington. The ushers were Mr. J.H. Dickinson
and Mr. W.B. Clements, of Portsmouth, Va. They will be
pleased to see their friends at their new home, 707 D
street southeast.
