When, within one minute of the legal time for a wedding, the couple appeared they were given a hearty cheer by a large ezowd.
The church was crowded an hour before three o'clock. The vicar arrived at Évo minutes to three, and he walked up to the chancel scompanied by the vicar of the parish, the Rer. Llewellyn Lloyd Davies. He looked anxious na he discussed the pos sibility of getting the sermony over before three o'clock. Then it was noticed that the bride bid not arrived.
The suspensa lasted three minutes, and then there was a sigh of relief when a shout went up from the crowd outside that the lady was coming.
It was now only about two minutes be jure three o'clock. The vicar said he would be pusula to perform the ceremony in the asual order, hat would begin at the part of the service containing the interrogatorise to the bride and bridegroom.
Those were put by the vicar and re sponded to by Mr. Müller and his bride. The wards were herriedly spoken and the zing was placed on the girl's finger. The ceremony was rapidly conzluded and the party sushed into the vestry. barea re attached to the register just a
