was attended by a large number of guests and many members of the public, who were allowed to sit in the gallery! There were surprisingly few cricketers among those present, though there were many cricket enthusiasts in the crowd which gathered outside the church.

FIVE BRIDESMAIDS

Sir Harry Peat gave his daughter sway. Her dress of ivory satin had a draped collar falling over the long sleeves. A vell of old Brussels lace was held in place. by a chaplet of orange buds, and she carried a bouquet of white and pink orchid sprays.

In attendance were five brides- maids: Miss Jean Anderson, acting as train-bearer, Miss Mary Peat (sister of the bride), Miss Mar- garet Peat (cousin) Miss Marjorie Savill, and Miss Pansy Grace. They wore dresses of ciel blue silk net, hemmed with silk, over taffeta to match, with head-wreaths of amali blue velvet flowers to tone. Bouquets in Victorian posy shape of pink and blue flowers with Jade pendants on fine neckchains, were the gifts of the bridegroom.
