Braswell-Webb
The Daily Herald, 25 June 1914
At 2 o'clock this afternoon the home on Adams street of Captain and Mrs. John A. Webb will be the scene of a quiet
marriage, their beautiful daughter, Miss Clara Belle, becoming that hour the bride of Mr. Braswell of San Antonio,
Texas, Rev. W. H. Benton officiating, and no attendants serving either the bride or groom, save the honored father
of the bride, with whom she enters the flower-filled parlor to assume her marriage vows amid her own best beloved
and Mr. Branwell's (sic) closest kindred and friends. Immediately afterward the young people will start out on
their journey to San Antonio, and will be followed along every step by the loving good wishes of their many Jackson
friends. This is the city of the bride's nativity and Mr. Braswell has lived here for number of years until his
departure a year ago for San Antonio, in which city he had the exceedingly good fortune to find relatives at once,
and to get into desirable business connections, so that his removable from the old state was a blessing rather
than the disappointment his friends feared it might be.—Jackson News Miss Clara Bell Webb is well known here, where
she has visited many times and once when she came as a sponsor for the Camp of U.C.V. from Jackson when they attended
the state reunion here. A pretty compliment to Miss Webb was the presentation of a Confederate pin to her by the
camp in Jackson, to which her father belongs, engraved as follows: To you, our dear young member friend With loving
thoughts this pin we send And hope the colors graven there May ever their fullest meaning bear. The "blue"
for "loyal hearts and true Our fathers bore, the four year thru; The "red" for that brave crimson
tide. Our fathers yielded when they died. So wear this pin and ne'er forget That you're a "Daughter of a Vet."
