Edge-Duke Nuptials.
One of the lovliest weddings of the
season was solemnized Monday, when
Miss Leila Edna Duke, only daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. John Blackman Duke,
was united in marriage to Mr. Lac.
Day Edge of Groveland.
The marriage ceremony was per
formed in St. James Methodist Epis
copal church, Monday afternoon at 5
o'clock, by the Eev. S. Grady, pastor
of the church, in the presence of a
large assemblage of relatives and
friends. The church was a bower of
ferns, bamboo, palms, plumosa, with
cut flowers in profusion. Intertwin
ed in the foliage were candles which
added a subdued light. The ushers
were Heniy S. McKenzie, Tim. Mer
rill, Ralph Tavel and Marvin DuPont.
In the half hour that preceded the
ceremony, Mrs. W. G. Tilghman at the
organ and Miss Grace Urie, violinist,
rendered exquisite music, and shortly
before the bridal party entered, Miss
Irene Lewis sang most charmingly "O
Promise Me.". At the appointed
time the organ modulated into the Lo
hengrin wedding processional and the
bridal party entered first the ushers,
Ralph Tavel, Marvin DuPont, Henry
S. McKenzie and Tim Merrill, junior.
At the left came little Ruth Brown
ing s flower erirl. dressed in dainty
white scattering rose petals in the
path; then followed little Caroline Van
Brunt daintily attired in pink, carry
in the rintr. hidden in a nest of lillies
of the valley. At the left entered the
bridesmaid, Miss Kate Edge, with the
groomsman, Mr. Will Walton, at the
right; Miss Bertha Edge came next,
as maid of honor, with Mr. Clarence
Carlton of Arcadia, as best man.
Then followed Miss Duke, carrying
bride's roses and lillies of the valley,
leaning on the arm of her brother,
Clyde Duke who gave her away. As
the bridal party were grouped around
the altar, Dr. Grady read the short
but impressive ring service. While
the tows were being plighted the or
gan and violin played softly and as
the bridal party left the church, broke
into the Mendelssohn wedding reces
sional. The happy young couple af
ter being "showered with congratula
tions and well-wishes a,nd rice at their
car left at 5:45 for Jacksonville and
then to Cuba where they will spe.
short honeymoon, and upon their re
turn will reside in Groveland. where
the groom has prepared a furnished
bungalow.

here that the lovers met four years
ago and the happy event of Monday
was the result of this romance,

of sterling character, and his home is
in Groveland where he is connected
