Palmer, with the bride's uncle, Mr. Palmer performing the ceremony. In the living room an improvised altar was formed of ferns and Autumn leaves and on either side were tall pedestal baskets filled with gladioli and dahlias. The bride entered on the arm of her grandfather, C.L. McWaters, Sr., of Macon, who gave her in marriage. She wore a lovely cinnamon brown costume suit trimmed with red fox fur and black accessories. Her corsage was of yellow roses and lilies of the valley. Miss McWaters is the only daughter of Mrs. Mamie McWaters Kea of Adrian and the late DeWitt H. McWaters of Macon. Mr. Scarboro is the son of Mrs. Minnie Willis Scarboro of Dublin and the late William Thomas Scarboro. Following the wedding, Rev. and Mrs. Palmer served individual cakes and ice cream at an informal reception. In the dining room the bride's table was overlaid with a hand made lace cover and held as its central decoration a crystal bowl of white chrysanthemums illuminated by burning white tapers in crystal holders at each end of the table. Among those attending the wedding were Mr. and Mrs. C.L. McWaters, Sr., Mrs. C.L. McWaters, Jr., Beth McWaters and C.L. McWaters, III, of Macon, Mrs. Mamie Kea and Mrs. I.S. Hughes of Adrian and W.R.
