• Notes

  Newspaper: SHEATHER-JONES. A pretty wedding was celebrated at the Wesleyan Church on Wednesday last, the participating parties being Mr. Herbert Joseph, second son of Mr and Mrs Sheather, of Sydney, the Miss Hannah Grace, third daughter of Mr and Mrs Joseph Jones, of Adjungbilly, Rev H Skuse being the celebrant. The bride (who was given away by her father) was dressed in white voile with hand-embroidered net over dress, hat en suite. She wore a gold brooch with neck chain and cross and carried a boquet of orange blossoms (the gifts of the bride- groom). Miss Lily Jones (sister of the bride) and Miss Emily Marsh (cousin of the bride) were the bridesmaids, both gowned in white muslin trimmed with embroidery, with white silk hats en suite, and both wore gold brooches (gifts of the bridegroom). Mr. Albert Woods capably filled the role of best man. The ceremony over, the company adjourned to the Oddfellows' Hall where a sumptuous wedding break- fast was provided. Rev. H. Skuse occupied the chair, and after justice had been done to the good things provided, proposed the toast of the 'Bride and Bridegroom' in a happy speech The bridegroom suitably responded and proposed the toast of the 'Bridesmaids,' Mr. A. Woods responding. Rev. H. Skuse then proposed the health of the 'Par- of the Bride and Bridegroom,' Mr. J.Jones responding. The bride's travelling dress was of navy blue serge with Oriental trimmings, hat to match. She wore a sealskin muff and fur (the gift of the bride- groom). Numerous and costly were the presents they received. The happy pair left, amid showers of rice and confetti, by the train en route for Albury, where the honey- moon is to be spent. We wish our young friends health, wealth and prosperity in the future. Their home will be Cootamundra.
