The bride entered the drawing room on the arm of her uncle, Mr. R. W. Young, to the strains of the wedding march played by Mr. Hector Dallimore. The bride was charmingly gowned in pink satin faced crepe with fur trimming and carried a bouquet of pink carnations. Little Evelyn Turner, niece of the bride acted as train bearer. The bridesmaid was Miss Pearl E. Munroe of Perth and wore a gown of yellow crepe with fur trimming, and carried a bouquet of white carnations. Mr. Charles Symington acted as groomsman. During the signing of the register, Miss Roberta Jamieson of Almonte, sang "0 Promise Me." The groom's gift to the bride was a string of Delta Pearls, to the bridesmaid a silver pendant, to the pianist a pair of silver cuff links and to the soloist a necklace. Messrs. H. Giles and R.
