The bridegroom was accompanied by Dr. Maitland as best man, and the bride, who was given away by her step-father, Mr. Charles Cope, was charmingly dressed in soft white silk with chiffon draperies, a spray of orange blossoms under the long tulle veil, which was fastened by a gold star, and she carried a lovely bouquet of bridal flowers. Four bridesmaids were in attendance — the Misses Lillian and Rosie Turner (sisters of the bride), Miss Eyre Curlewis (sister of the bridegroom), and Miss Marian Sargood. They were dressed alike in toilettes of cream crepon and white satin, dainty fichus of cream chiffon, and cream-tinted picture hats trimmed with white satin. Their bouquets of yellow and white chrysanthemums were tied with yellow streamers, and the groud really formed what is so often described as "a very pretty wedding."

Cope entertained their friends in a large marquee erected on the lawn, and gaily decorated with flags. The company present included Mr. and Mrs. F.
