BRAUD -- STEPHENSON

An event of interest, owing to the social prominence of the contracting parties, 
was the marriage of H. Clay Braud, Jr., the handsome young son of Hon. H. C. 
Braud, of Burnside, and Miss Renie Stephenson, the lovely daughter of Mr. and 
Mrs. J. W. Stephenson, of Riverton plantation, which was solemnized in the 
presence of a large gathering of relatives and friends at the Burnside Chapel on 
Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, Rev. Quincy Ewing of Napoleonville officiating. 
Miss Rena Landry rendered the wedding march exquisitely as the bridal party 
entered the pretty little chapel, which was beautifully decorated for the 
occasion with mosses, palms, cut flowers and festoons of evergreens. The 
attendants were Miss Virgie Braud, sister of the groom, maid of honor; R. N. 
Siator, best man; Misses Marjorie Hanson and Rowena Boote, bridesmaids, and H. 
Vernon Sims and Claiborne Bel, ushers. After the ceremony the bridal party 
repaired to the spacious residence of the bride's parents, where a delightful 
reception was tendered the newly mated pair. Mr. and Mrs. Braud left on the 
afternoon Mississippi Valley train for Memphis, Tenn., from whence they will 
journey west for a stay several weeks. Upon their return they will make their 
home at Burnside, where the groom is assisting his father in the management of 
the Houmas Central store and in the performance of the thousand and one other 
duties which Mr. Braud is called upon to discharge in his capacity as 
representative at Burnside of the big Miles concern.
