"POPULAR COUPLE MARRIED"

"Chris Thompson and Miss Laura Caillavet United"

"Wedding at Catholic Church This Afternoon"

"A beautiful wedding took place at the Catholic church this afternoon when Miss 
Laura Caillavet, one of the most popular young ladies of this city, was married 
to Christopher Thompson, a rising young contractor of this coast. Rev. Father 
Alphonse Kettels, officiating. The church was crowded with the friends of the 
contracting parties and was decorated with flowers and ablaze with lights. 
Oswell Mauffray of Bay St. Louis acted as best man and the bride's sister, Miss 
Anita Caillavet, as maid of honor. Fred Abbley and Miss Viola Caillavet, acted 
as groomsman and bridesmaid and Hilda Caillavet was the ring bearer. Mr. and 
Mrs. Thompson will leave for Buras, La, on the evening train where they will 
remain until an extensive contract, which Mr. Thompson with his brother Mr. O. 
E. Thompson, has at that place, is completed. The bride is the daughter of Capt. 
and Mrs. F. A. Caillavet of this city. She was reared and educated in Biloxi and 
for eight years has been organist at the Catholic church".

Additional Comments:
The wedding announcement is verified to have been published on Sept. 14, 1904; 
however the Harrison County Marriage Data Base has the date of marriage as Sept 
15, 1904.
