CARMICHAEL-SIMMONS.
A wedding of much interest to a
wide circle of friends took place last
Monday evening at 8:30 o’clock at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Simmons,
on Star street, when their daughter,
Miss Marguerite, became the bride of
James R. Carmichael.
On entering the home the guests
were met by Mesdames H. C. McAn-
ally and Raymond Carter who in turn
presented them to the out of town
guests. Then Miss Dewey Belle Swope
led the way to the Bride’s Book which
was presided over by Misses Sarah
Carmichael and Pearl Dulaney. In
an adjoining room were found the
many beautiful and handsome gifts
to the bridal couple, shown by Miss
Winnie Hardin.
At the hour named Miss Pauline
Foster struck the opening chords of
“Beauty’s Eyes,” by Tosti, which was
sung in an impressive manner by
Messrs. Robert and Edward Grant,
cousins of the groom. Following this
song Mrs. F. C. Allen gave “Until,’*
in her most charming soprano. As
she softly glided into the familiar
strains of Lohengrin’s wedding march
the bridal party slowly entered.
Leading the way little Miss Annie
Laura Carter was a perfect fairy in
her dainty white frock caught with
pink roses as she scattered rose petals
in the pathway of the bride. N'ekt
came the only attendants, Mr. Claud
Leatherwood and Miss Jennie B. Stan-
ley, the latter gowned in a creation of
pink taffeta and gold lace carrying an
arm boquet of pink carnations. The
bride and groom following were met
by Rev, Edgar W. Williams to be
joined in the holy bond of wedlock.
The ceremony which was beautiful
in wards and impressive in thoughts,
was said while sweet notes of music
filled the room. The ring was placed
upon the finger of the bride and the
words pronounced which made them
husband and wife. Following con-
gratulations the guests entered the
dining room where Misses Georgia
Voyles and Margaret Stone presided
at the punch bowl.
The bride wore a beautiful gown of
white satin and georgette crepe, trim-
med with pearls. Her only ornaments
was an exquisite strand of these same
rare gems of the sea. She carried a
boquet of bridal roses. The home
was artistically decorated in a pro-
fusion of roses and ferns. A novel
feature was the dainty canopy Under
which the ceremony was performed.
This was composed of tulle and clus-
ters of dainty pink roses. Falling

Marguerite. She is endowed with all
qualities which tend to make a perfect

her?

a number of years, during which time
he has made a large circle of friends.

DEATH OF.S. W. BOLTON.
The body of S. W. Bolton arrived
over the T. & P. at noon, the remains
being met by a number of friends at
the station and taken to Willow Wild
cemetery, where a funeral service
over the body was conducted by Elder
F. W. O’Malley, pastor of the First
Christian church of this city*
For a number of years Mr. Bolton
lived in Bonham.. He came to Texas
in 1881 from Loneoak, Ark., where he
was born on January 20, 1856. Soon
after his arrival in this city he mar-
ried Miss Mattie Reich, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Owen Reich of this city.
To them were born three children,
Misses iMertie and Berlie and Owen
Bolton. The latter, the only son, died
June 19, 1910. Deceased was the
brother of Mrs. S. J. Stevenson, for-
merly of Bonham, but now of Quanah,
who is the last survivor of the family.
Mr. Bolton is survived by his second
wife, whom The Favorite understands
he married in Gainesville.
Mr. Bolton had been living in Dal-
las, and up to yesterday morning was
in good health. He is thought to have
died from a stroke of paralysis, death
occurring soon after the stroke.
Si Bolton, as he was known by many
was a good man.* He attend strictly
to his own affairs, never going out of
the even walk of a quiet life to molest
others in their daily lives. For a
number of years he was a contractor
here, being in business with O. H.
Reich, his father-in-law. Many struc-
tures in this city, particularly busi-
ness houses, are the handiwork of the
firm. He was an honest, conscientious
man, and his departure from among
men is regretted by all who knew
him.
