DAVIS - GRAY
Married on the evening of the 24th inst. at the residence of the Bride's
mother, near DeSotoville, Choctaw County, Ala. Mr. WILLIAM C. DAVIS, of Hamilton,
to Miss MAUDE GRAY, of DeSotoville. In addition to our good wishes
for this couple in last week's paper we wish to add a few more. While the
fair bride is personally unknown to ye Editor, Mr. DAVIS, in our short
acquaintance has impressed s most favorably as being one of "Nature's Noblemen,"
and our faith in his cleverness and ability leaves no room in which to doubt
that in so vital a matter as this, he has shown more than usual tact, so
we will take it for granted that the fair lady of his choice is all that
his fond heart deems her. May life for them be one long sweet dream of love
and peace. Trouble and cares will come to them - they do to all of us - but
may love and firm and abiding faith in each other help them to bear the burdens
of life. When old age comes on may he be able to say: And still beloved
till life grows cold, Will wander 'neath a genial sky And only know that
we are old By counting happy years gone by. Old time who changes all below
To wean men gently from the grave Hath brought us no increase of woe And
leaves us all he ever gave. - (Hamilton News Press, July 25, 1895)
It is with the greatest pleasure that we copy from the Birmingham News of
July 19th 1895 the following just tribute to our distinguished townsman,
Hon. W. C. DAVIS, on the eve of his marriage. "Cards are out announcing
the approaching marriage of Hon. W. C. DAVIS, of Hamilton to Miss MAUDE GRAY,
of DeSotoville, Ala. Mr. DAVIS is one of the most promising young attorneys
of West Alabama. A man of sterling worth and fearless determination, he made
for himself a reputation in the last session of the State Legislature second
to none in the state. Although an inland county, Marion has a representative
who took the lead in all matters coming before the House. The bride-to-be
is one of the State's most charming young ladies, sweet and thoroughly womanly.
She will be a fit helpmeet for Marion's gifted son. - (Hamilton News Press,
