Durham, Dec. 20 - News reaches here from the eastern part of the State, in the 
shape of invitations, telling of a popular social event to take place during 
the holidays, this being the marriage of Mr. Benjamin S. Skinner, of this 
city, and Miss Mary S. Winborne, who lives near Tyner, Chowan County. The 
ceremony will be performed Thursday morning, December 26th, at 10:30 a.m. at 
the bride's home. A card accompanying the invitation reads: "At home after the 
1st of January, Durham, North Carolina."

This will be a very popular social event. Mr. Skinner, who has made Durham his 
home for about four years, is principal in the city schools. He was first 
connected with the city high school and since then has been principal of the 
North Durham, the Fuller and, at present, the Morehead school. He is a 
graduate of the State University in both the academic and law departments. He 
is the son of Mr. Joshua Skinner, of Hertford, Perquimans county, a member of 
the well known Skinner family in eastern North Carolina, being related to the 
Skinners and Lewises of Raleigh, and the Lassiters, of Oxford. He is a young 
man of great ability and since coming here has made quite an enviable 
reputation as an educator.

Miss Winborne, who is to become his bride, is the daughter of the late Dr. 
R.H. Winborne, a well known physician of Chowan county. She is a graduate of 
the State Normal and a young lady who is prominent and popular in social 
circles throughout the State. She is a cousin of Judge B.B. Winborne, member 
of the Legislature, and closely related to ex-Congressmen Harry and T.G. 
Skinner, of the eastern district. This marriage will be a brillant and happy 
social event.
