LATE FOR WEDDING
A marriage has been arranged, and will take place at the Cathe dral Church of St. Mary, Palmers ton-place, between Captain Ron- ald Edward Warlow, the Gordon Highlanders, and Eda, daughter of the late Mr. J. E. and Mrs. J. E. New York, Hedin, of Buffalo, U.S.A.
The wedding has not taken place and this is why. Miss Hedin sailed from New York on April 27, 1940. On May 8 she landed in France, planning to fly to Lon-
don.
In March this year she reached Portugal. For three months she tried to get to England. Then she caught the Clipper to New York.
"I have been told there is no chance of my being able to get from here to England as an or- dinary passenger," she said. "So I am going to Canada to enlist as a nurse for active service England."
