Billings-Pickett of Durham
Correspondence of the Observer

Durham, Oct 17, - After the prayer meeting service at the Second Baptist Church
last night, a few minutes after 9 o'clock, there was a very pretty marriage,
this coming as a surprise to many of the friends of the parties. The couple had
kept to themselves and a few intimate friends the fact that there was to be a
marriage, and when Rev. W. C. Barrett, pastor of  the church, said that there
would be a marriage in a few minutes there was much surprise. Mr. C.L. Billings
and Miss Coy Pickett were the contracting parties. Both popular and well known,
the bride being the daughter of Mr. L. G. Pickett, who lives on West Chapel Hill
street, and is a prominent citizen. The groom holds a position with a grocery
firm on Main street. The bridal party consisted of Mr. J. M Cheek, best man, and
Miss Ira Pickett, sister of the bride, as maid of honor, Messers. J. T. Beaver,
C. T. Council, L. P. Wilson and S. U. Pickard, ushers. The bride wore a gown of
crepe de chine over taffeta, trimmed in point lace. She carried a shower bouquet
of bride's roses.
