The Cathedral was decorated with graceful palms and quantities of roses; infleed, it was a veritable "Rose wedding. The Rev. Copley Moyle efficiated, assisted by the Rev. Croie Rees, B.N. Lieutenant H. F. Hurd-Wood was the best man." The bride, who was given away by her father, looked charming in a beautiful ivory satin gowa, the bridal veil being arranged with: sprays of orange blossom. She carried a simple bouquet of white roses, presented. by Mrs. Layton; and was attended by Miss Joyce Ham, wearing old rose taffeta, and by Master Lyn and Miss Pamela Dodwell & sweet little couple, in a paler shade of pink. All three carried, old- fashioned posies of pink rosebuds. The bride's mother, in grey and black char meuse and picture hat to match, curried

a bouquet of sweet peas. The happy

A large gathering of friends attended the reception at "Taikoo."

He said they had mat together to pay an affectionate tribute to the only daughter of their old and tried friends, Mr. and Mrs. Edkins- anyone could consider a man an old friend with whom he had played, golf and travelled on the tram for twenty years. Mr. Edkins had long been pillar of British commerce in China, and the bride's mother, unsparing of her strength, had always been foremost in good works. (Applause.) Wo rejoice with them to-

To-day they see their only daughter happily married to the man of her choice, who has before him an bonourable career in the service of the King-they are happy parents. As for the bride, I can tell you nothing about her that you do not already know. Her childhood, which is not long behind her, was spent among us. Look at the bride, radiant, blushing, charming-if I were a Frenchmany I should say adorable. (Cheers.) She has been worthily won, and Hongkong does not grudge this prize to the British Navy. She is leaving us, alas, all too soon, but she and her hus band will go from us with every good wish and with a prayer from us all that they may speedily retarn to their old home where they will find "nons "but friends."
