Bowcock-Tarver Wedding Takes Place On Monday

An event of early November marked by widespread interest and characterized by 
beautiful simplicity, was the wedding of Miss Bob Tarver and Dr. Harold 
Matthew Bowcock, which was solemnized on Monday afternoon at 5 o’clock at the 
First Presbyterian church.

The Rev. J. Sprole Lyons performed the ceremony, which was witnessed by only 
relatives and a few close friends.

Mr. Charles Sheldon at the organ played the beautiful wedding 
music, “Cantilene Nuptiale,” by Dubois; “Calm as the Night,” by 
Bohm, “Romance,” by Sheppard; “Nuptial March” by Barnard;”Intermezzo,” by 
Hollins, and “Reverie,” by St. Claire, were among the selections rendered by 
Mr. Sheldon.

Beautiful Church

The church was beautiful with a lovely display of foliage plants, palms and 
magnificent white chrysanthemums.  The altar was banked with a perfect mass of 
palms and in its center were two-branched candelabra of heavy hammered brass, 
holding white wax burning tapers.  At either side of this, were tall floor 
baskets holding massive white chrysanthemums.

Miss Mary Estes Tarver was maid of honor and her sister’s only attendant.  She 
was becomingly gowned in tan embroidered georgette, banded in fur.  Her hat 
was also of tan.

Dr. Henry Cliff Sauls, was best man.  The bride and groom entered together.

Lovely Bride

The charming bride was lovely in an ensemble suit of rustic bengaline, trimmed 
in baby leopard.  Her attractive hat was of brown ribbon.

Mrs. C.M. Bowcock, mother of the groom, wore brown moiré trimmed in beige, 
with a hat of matching brown.

During the evening Dr. and Mrs. Bowcock left for New Orleans for their wedding 
trip.  On their return they will be at home to their friends at the St. 
Andrews apartments on West Peachtree street.
