Martin, and Mr. Wilmer Scarborough, on Thursday evening at 7:30 o’clock, at their charming country place at Osshatchie, the Rev. L.W. Colson, of St. Paul’s church reading the marriage ceremony, was the social event of the week. Music was furnished by Mrs. Frank Dudley and Miss Jessie B. Henry. A garland of smilax interspersed with large bows of white tulle held by Misses Ethel Scarborough, Martha Martin, Maidell Roberts of Valdosta; Alice Johnson, Martha Lewis, of Macon; Eula Kirven, Marie Spivey, of Talbotton, and Eliza Hill, of Greenville, all wearing lingerie dresses, formed an aisle for the bridal party. The matron of honor, Mrs. P.B. Browning, was followed by the bride’s sister, Miss Ruth Martin, as maid of honor, wearing a dainty frock of lingerie and carrying an arm cluster of daffodils, showered with feathery ferns. The bride entered with her father and was lovely in her wedding gown of crepe meteor, and her long tulle veil fell over a shower bouquet of bride’s roses and lilies of the valley. Mr. Claud Scarborough was his brother’s best man. Immediately after the ceremony a buffet supper was given in honor of the bride and groom. – Condensed from Columbus Correspondent in Atlanta Journal The Talbotton New Era Thursday, March 23, 1911 Page Six Local News Col. and Mrs. J.H.
