DAVIES-HIBBS NUPTIALS

Trinity Episcopal Church at Manassas was the scene of  pretty marriage at 10 o'clock yesterday morning, when Miss Maidie Davies of Manassas, wedded Mr. E. Humphrey Hibbs, also of that place. The ceremony was performed in the presence of a large gathering of friends of the two families by Rev. W. H. K. Pendleton, the rector.

The bride was handsomely attired in a traveling gown and was given in marriage by her uncle, Mr. J. B. T. Thornton, member of the state constitutional convention from Prince William county. There was no bridesmaid nor best man. Messrs. J. Jenkyn Davies, Hawes Buckner Davies and William Willis Davies, brothers of the bride, and Mr. E. B. Giddings, the business partner of the groom, were the ushers.

Immediately after the ceremony the bride and groom left for the northern bridal tour. Upon their return they will reside in Prince William county.
