Her lace edged veil ot net which formed a second train, was embroidered in each corner with lace motifs, and she carried a sheaf of white roses and gladioli. Attending as bridesmaids were Misses E. McGougan, and E. Hammond who were frocked similarly in gowns of powder blue and delphinium blue georgette, with golden velvet flowers finishing the neckline and sleeves. They wore topknots of delphiniums, and their bouquets were of apricot shaded roses and dahlias. L.A.C. A. E. Hammond, brother of the bridegroom, was best man and Mr J.
