MATAKOHE.
Our district, which is usually so quiet, is now roused into a state of matrimonial activity. The week before last the union of Mr T. Downey with Miss P. Barne was celebrated K y a party and dance in the hall, the usual amount of dancing, feasting, flirting, etc., being indulged in to a goodly extent. Last week Hymen tied the knot which bound Miss Pheasant and Mr George Ovens so tightly together. Next week will witness another wedding:, but the bride this time hails from the rural district of Taupaki. The boys are mustering up old tin-cans, etc., so that the young couple will get a lively reception upon their arrival. ..Which of the brothers is it to be, Lizzie ? Make ■up your mind quickly — Sandy or Bill ?... Who is the bachelor that is always staring at a cer f ain young lady ? Too bad of you, John ; pluck up cmrasre and learn your fate at once, else you will be too late.
