The ceremony took place at the residence of the brides parents, where a large number of relatives and friends had congregated. Misses R and E Rae acted as bridesmaids, and Mr F Rae as best man. the bride looked very nice in a fawn dress trimmed with silk and white lace to match, with the orthodox veil and wreath, the bridesmaids being dressed in shot material. The bride was given away by her father. After the ceremony the bridal party and guests were entertained at afternoon tea, when the usual toasts were duely honoured. In the evening a dance was given, which was kept going by a large number of friends until the small hours of the morning. The music was supplied by Mr O Whetton and Mr F Lorgelly, while Mr F Johnstone acted as M.C. A few songs were sung during the evening, which helped to make things enjoyable. The list of presents wetre numerous and pretty, some being very valuable."
