A Beautiful Home Wedding

A beautiful home wedding occurred today at high noon when Miss Sudie Hackney, the popular and talented daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Hackney was united in marriage to Mr. Grayson Luttrell, a prominent business man of Baltimore.

The palatial residence was beautiful in its floral decorations of cut flower and palms and ferns. The music was furnished by the Garber-Davis orchestra, and to the strains of the wedding march the happy couple attended only by pretty little Margaret Richardson, niece of the bride, preceded them in making a way with ribbons to where Rev. Mr. Stewart, pastor of the Christian church, stood, and united them in the holy bonds of matrimony. Following the ceremony the party left for northern cities where they will tour for three weeks before making their home in Baltimore.

The presents were numerous and handsome, attesting to the popularity of the couple who carry with them to their home the best wishes of a host of friends.
