A DECEMBER WEDDING

One of the prettiest home weddings of the season occurred Sunday afternoon, 
Dec. 17th, at 3 o'clock at the home of the bride's parents at Glenn, Georgia 
when Miss Nellie Cook became the bride of Mr. Hubert Young Lester.  The parlor 
and hall were artistically decorated for the occasion with holly, smilax and 
ferns, the color scheme of red and green being carried out, symbolic of the 
holiday season.  Lighted candles gave an added touch of charm and cast a warm 
glow over the already lovely decorations.

Miss Elizabeth Cook sang several numbers, and to the strains of Mendelssohn's 
wedding march by Miss Annie Ray Crockett, with violin accompaniment by Mr. 
Ambrose Lester, the bridal couple entered the parlor with their attendants, 
Miss Elizabeth Cook, sister of the bride, and Mr. J.T. Lester, brother of the 
groom, proceeding to the altar, where they were met by Rev. Mr. Robertson who 
performed the ceremony.

The bride is one of Heard county's loveliest young women and her personal 
magnetism has won for her many friends.  Mr. Lester is a worthy representative 
of an old and prosperous Heard county family.  The bridal party left 
immediately for a short stay witht he bride's sister, Mrs. J.O. Wilson in 
Roanoke, after which they will return to their home in Liberty.
