Neid McGehee and Mr. Edward Bardwell and Mr. Grier Maxwell and Mr. Marion 
McCoy, entering by twos, going right and left, crossing in front of the chancel 
and taking a position where the bridal party was to be grouped.  Then came the 
bride with her maid of honor, Miss Lucile Kimbrough, going to the left, and the 
groom with Mr. A. Dana Brown, entering to the right and meeting the bride in 
front of the chancel.

Miss Elizabeth Ragland presided at the organ and Misses Mattie Mae Kimbrough, 
Caroline Dennis, Mrs. W.K. Kimbrough and W.O. DeLoache and Mrs. J.M. Heath sang 
the bridal chorus.

After the ceremony at the church, an elegant reception was given at the home of
