At 8:30 o'clock last evening Miss Texie Edith Gryder, the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Gryder, and Mr. Daniel Wriston Byerly were married. The vows were solemnized at the home of the bride, on East Seventh street, Rev. C. T. Willingham, the acting pastor of the First Baptist church, officiating.

The home was prettily and artistically decorated for the occasion in a profusion of palms and ferns and seasonable plants. In the parlor, where the vows were taken, was arranged a huge bank of palms and ivy. Above this was suspended a wedding bell and under this the couple stood during the ceremony.

Just at the time appointed, Miss Annie Young began the sweet strains of Lohengrin's wedding march on the piano and the couple came down the stairs together, there being no attendants. The bride looked charming in a gown of white batiste, embroidered by hand, and carrying a boquet of bride roses and maiden hair ferns.

A large number of friends of the popular young couple were gathered in the home to witness the event.

After the ceremony Mr. and Mrs. Byerly went to the home of Mrs. C. C. Kennedy, on North Church street, where they will live until the spring, when they will build a residence.

The bride of last night is an attractive young woman and lovable. Mr. Byerly is a well-known young business man of the city, being a member of the firm of Davis & Byerly, who conduct grocery stores on Tryon and College streets. Both Mr. and Mrs. Byerly have large numbers of friends.
