Evans - Scogin Nuptials
Married at Newbern, Virginia, the ancestral home of the bride, on Wednesday evening, September 20, at half past 8 o'clock, Rev. James A. Huffard officiating, Miss Mamie Sue Scogin, of Dallas, to Mr. Charles R. Evans, of Roanoke, Virginia.
The wedding was a quiet one from the fact of its taking place while the bride with her mother and sisters were visiting relatives in the old home, where over fifty years ago the grandparents of the bride were duly married. It was indeed a feast of loving hearts, as many were reminded of that night so many pears ago, and tender memories dwelt in harmony with the friends who had gathered to bid God speed to the happy young couple. Mr. I. L. Hawkins, one of Roanoke's representative, business men, acted as best man, while Miss Fannie Virginia Scogin, sister of the bride, was maid of honor. Mr. Will R. Scogin, of St. Louis, and brother of the bride, with their mother and little sister, Mattibel, formed a pleasing picture as they stood near.
Immediately after the ceremony and loving congratulations had been extended - in the same old dining room where grandparents and friends had feasted - a veritable Virginia spread was very much enjoyed by the immediate friends and relatives of the contracting parties. On Thursday morning good-byes were said, the happy couple leaving for Washington and New York, where they will spend a month, returning to Roanoke, which in the future will be their home.
Miss Mamie Scogin formerly lived in this city with her parents, where the family occupied a high social position and were held in high esteem by a large number of friends. Miss Mamie was especially a favorite in Terrell society and was much missed when she removed with her parents several years ago to Dallas. Of Mr. Evans, the groom, we learn that he is a young man of excellent business qualities, being at present the cashier of the Roanoke Savings Bank. He is a brother of the ex-mayor of Roanoke, a place of over 20,000 inhabitants.
The many friends of Miss Mamie will be pleased to learn of the happy nuptial event, and will join with the Times-Star in wishing to the happy pair their full allotment of earthly happiness.
