Auburn, N. C., Dec. 30--The beautiful home of Edward Pool yesterday was the scene of one of the prettiest weddings of the season, when Miss Sadie Ethel Branch became the bride of Samuel Douglas Phillips. The parlor had been tastily decorated with evergreens and holly, and the words that made these young people man and wife were spoken by Squire Trury Pool.

The bride was becomingly attired in a gown of white and wore orange blossoms and looked beautiful. She is the daughter of Newton Branch and is a popular and accomplished young woman. The bridegroom is a young man of character and is held in esteem by hundreds.

******************************************

Mrs. Sadie Branch Phillips, near Auburn, N. C., on June 4th, was killed by a lightning stroke and was found near the clothes-wire. She was a member of Ebenezer Methodist Church. She leaves an aged father, four brothers and one sister and a devoted husband and a host of friends to mourn their loss. She was a devoted wife and a good neighbor. None knew her but to love her. While it pleased our Heavenly Father to take from our midst our friend and neighbor, we submit to His will. Her remains were laid to rest by the side of her mother in the family burying ground amidst a large host of friends. The funeral was conducted by her pastor, Rev. G. W. Fisher. May the father of all mercies comfort the heart-broken husband and help him to so live that he will meet her in heaven where parting will be no more.
