Mr. Huntley and Miss Niven Wedded Under Auspicious Circumstances

Wadesboro, Nov. 16 - One of the prettiest home weddings ever celebrated in 
Anson County was solemnized at the handsome and spacious residence of Mr. John 
P. Niven of Morven yesterday afternoon. Just as the clock struck 2 the bridal 
party, in the following order, passed into the drawing room, where the 
ceremony was impressively performed by Rev. M.C. Arrowood of the Morven and 
Wadesboro Presbyterian churches: Misses Tollie Funk, Callie Niven, Allis Liles 
and Minnie Lowry, upon the arms of Messr. D.R. Niven, M.L. Ham, J.S. Ham and 
W.C. Dunn, respectively, who were followed by the contracting parties, Mr. 
Homer G. Huntley and Miss Islay Niven.

The entire house was artistically decorated with chrysanthemums and in the 
room in which the nuptials were performed was a large arch from the center of 
which hung a beautiful bell made of white chrysanthemums, under which the 
groom led his bride. 

Just preceeding the marriage the wedding party were given a most excellent 
dinning by the bride's father and immediately after the happy couple boarded 
the train for Columbia. Many were the hearfelt congratulations and good wishes 
that were showered upon them as they took their departure.
