J.M. Boland. A very large attendance was present to witness the ceremony, which was performed in a most solemn and impressive manner by Rev. H.C. Brewton. The church was most beautifully decorated with flowers, cedar and evergreen by the young ladies of Butler, in token of their love and esteem for the bride. Immediately over the chancel railing was an arch from the center of which hung the marriage bell, while upon either side were some of the rarest flowers that bloom. At 5 o’clock the bride and groom were escorted from the parsonage to the church by their attendants. Mr. H.P. Wallace with Miss Lucyne Daniel first entered the church and filing to the right took position near the altar; Mr. R.S. West with Miss Ella Cameron, of Americus, came second and took a position near the altar to the left; Mr. Arthur Hill, of Schley County, with Miss Bessie McCants, came third and took a position to the right; Col. W.E. Steed with Miss Mattie Ligon, of Geneva, came fourth and took a position to the left, forming a circle in which the bride and groom should stand to make their solemn vow. Thus while the wedding march was being most beautifully played on the organ by Miss Lena Bateman, the bride, dressed in a very costly trimmed dove colored silk and the groom in a handsome Prince Albert marched steadily to the altar, over whom the marriage bell was ringing, and with a few well chosen words by Mr. Brewton, Miss Cameron and Mr. Boland were made one. No congratulations were allowed as the bride and groom were expecting to leave on the 6 p.m. train for Macon to attend the South Georgia Conference. At 3 o’clock an elegant reception was given at the residence of the bride’s father at which a large number of friends and relatives of the family were present. The bride is the accomplished daughter of Mr. John A. Cameron, for several years the organist of the Methodist Sabbath school and corresponding secretary of the Woman’s Missionary Society, besides a valuable assistant in all religious enterprises. Mr. Boland is a very acceptable minister of the South Ga. Conference who has been pastor of Crowell’s Circuit the present year. The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Boland, extend to them many congratulations, and will every pray that their lot may be cast in pleasant places.
