Mrs. Robertson Weds William R. Asbury

Gainesville, Ga., November 4 – Captain and Mrs. Edgar B. Dunlap, of 
Gainesville, announce the marriage of their sister, Mrs. Maggie Dunlap 
Robertson to William Rufus Asbury, of Clarksville, the ceremony taking place 
at four o’clock Tuesday afternoon at the home of Captain and Mrs. Dunlap on 
Riverside drive in the presence of the immediate families of the bride and 
groom.  The Reverend Ernest F. Campbell, pastor of the First Baptist church, 
officiated, using the ring ceremony.

Mr. and Mrs. Asbury departed after the service for a sojourn of three weeks in 
Florida.  They will return by boat to Savannah, and will go to the lovely 
colonial home of Mr. Asbury in Clarkesville.

The bride was handsomely gowned in a traveling costume of navy blue poiret 
twill, fastening  on the left side and heavily braided in a conventional 
design in narrow black silk braid.  A bronze cord ending in two long narrow 
tassels of red silk outlined the movenage waist line and added a French touch 
to the ensemble.  Her hat was a high-crowned model of black panne velvet with 
aigrette of black burnt goose across the front, and a softening drapery of 
black lace embroidered in gold over the narrow trim.  Her corsage bouquet was 
of orchids and lilies of the valley.

The news of the marriage will be of cordial interest to a wide circle of 
friends of both families who are among the prominent citizens of north 
Georgia.  The bride was formerly Miss Maggie Dunlap, eldest daughter of the 
late Colonel and Mrs. Samuel C. Dunlap, who were influential factors in the 
social, political and business life of North Georgia for half a century, and 
is one of the most beloved women in Gainesville.  She has many friends 
throughout Georgia, Florida and Texas where she has often visited.

Mr. Asbury is a well-known and substantial business man of north Georgia, 
making his home in Clarkesville, Georgia, where he will introduce his bride to 
a wide circle of friends.
