SEMI-WEEKLY INTERIOR JOURNAL, STANFORD, KY. FRIDAY, JULY 2, 1897 Page 1 Matrimonial
BRIGHT - McALISTER. - Promptly at high noon Wednesday Mr. H. R. Bright, of Mt. Sterling, and Mrs. Lizzie Portman McAlister, of this place, were united in matrimony at her pretty home on East Main Street. Eld J. T. Sharrard officiated and Mrs. James P. Bailey played in sweetest strains "Call Me Thine Own." The wedding was a very simple affair, there being no attendants and only immediate friends of the family present. The bride was attired in a handsome blue tailor made suit, with hat to match and never looked prettier than when leaning on the arm of the man of her choice. She is a charming little woman and he who has won her has every right to feel proud. That she will make him a true helpmeet in every sense of the word, there can be no doubt. The groom, who is circuit clerk of his county and a licensed lawyer, is well recommended and his appearance and deportment while here indicate him to be a gentleman in all that the word implies. He is a splendid speciman of manhood and a handsomer pair than he and his lovely wife would be hard to find. After the ceremony a lunch was enjoyed at her mother's after which Mr. and Mrs. Bright left for Louisville, where, after spending a few days they will go to Olympia Springs. Until September 1st they will live at Mr. Bright's home but will then go to house-keeping. The Interior Journal whose particular friend the bride is, joins their many friends in wishing them a long and useful life filled to overflowing with unalloyed happiness. Mrs. Bettie Rogers Reid and Mrs. Allie Cochran, aunt and sister of the groom, and Messrs. N. R. Bright, H. R. Prewitt, John M. Elliott, John F. King and Robert Winn, all of Mt. Sterling, attended the wedding. The ladies were guests of Mrs. McAlister and Mrs. Eliza Portman. (Kentuckiana Digital Library)
