The ceremony was performed by, the Rev. Samuel W. Moore, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, who has known the bride since her childhood. The beautiful ring service being used. The bride, a most attractive young lady, is the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Burress. She was reared in Bluefleld, Va., and graduated from the high school there. She is a girl of fine character, quiet and unassuming and of a lovable disposition. She wore a most becoming ensemble suit of penny-brown with accessories to match. The groom is the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. L.F. Atkinson, and is well known in Bluefield, having been druggist at the White Pharmacy several years ago.

His many friends in Bluefield and in Florida will congratulate him on his good fortune in winning such a lovely young bride. Immediately after the ceremony, the happy young couple left on the 9:30 morning train for the sunshine and flowers of Florida, and will make their future home in Deland.
