Brown – Wallace

Eatonton, Ga., June 24 –

The marriage of Miss Carrie Brown, of this city, and Rev. Hugh Smead Wallace, 
of Sweetwater, Tenn., was an important social event of the week past in 
Eatonton.  The wedding took place at the First Baptist Church at 10 o’clock on 
Wednesday morning.  The church was beautifully and tastefully decorated for the 
occasion with palms, ferns, trailing vines and crepe myrtle, very effectively 
carrying out a color scheme of pink and green.  The ushers were Frank Dennis, 
Harvey Wilson, Ed Willett Ingram and Captain Phelps, of Atlanta, a foster 
father of the groom who wore a suit of Confederate gray, and carried the sword 
he bore through the Civil War.  Miss Elizabeth Brown was maid of honor and 
Emmet C. Cole, of Rome, best man for the happy occasion.  Promptly at 10 
o’clock the bridal party entered the church, where the nuptial vows were said 
before Rev. G.W. Garner, the bride’s pastor.  Miss Roberta Sparks rendered the 
wedding march as the couple entered and left the church.  Miss Brown is the 
oldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Y. Brown, a music graduate of Shorter 
College, and a young woman possessing all those personal attractions that make 
an attractive Southern gentlewoman, with a wide circle of friends in her home 
city.  Mr. Wallace is an alumnus of the Georgia State University, originally 
from Atlanta and head of the Greater Georgia movement at the state university 
several years ago.  He also numbers a wide circle of friends throughout the 
state.  Immediately after the ceremony Mr. and Mrs. Wallace left for their 
future home in Sweetwater, Tenn.
