On Christmas eve, l902, at the residence of MR. and MRS. C.R. RILEY, in Decatur City at 6 p.m., occurred the marriage of MR. ARTHUR WORDEN and MISS LUCY CAVE, the ceremony being performed by Justice C.R. Riley.

To the sweet strains of the bridal march from Lohengrin, played by Miss Pearl E. Riley, the couple entered the parlor, where under a beautiful evergreen arch, they were united for life. MR. ROY CAVE acted as best man and MISS PEARL RILEY as maid of honor. The bride wore a handsome gown of dove colored cloth with trimmings of white silk and applique. After the ceremony, the bridal party went to the Christmas exercises and upon returning were surprised to find that a dainty wedding supper had been prepared by the hostess, MRS. RILEY.

LUCY is the eldest daughter of MR. and MRS. EDGAR CAVE, and MR. WORDEN is a prosperous young farmer residing near Weldon. The happy couple will reside in Leon until March lst when they will remove to their farm near Weldon. We extend congratulations.
