A LONDON WEDDING LADY NINA OGILVIE-GRANT. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

LONDON, 12th August. This afternoon, St. Margaret's Church, Westminster, was the scene of the wedding of Sir Lees Knowles, Bart., C.V.0., and Lady Nina Ogilvie-Grant, youngest daughter of the tenth Earl of Seafield and the Dowager Countess of Seafield. The bridegroom is the eldest son of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Knowles, of (Westwood, Pendlebury; his father was High Sheriff of Lancashire in 1892-3. The church was very full, and naturally thera was a goodly sprinkling of khaki, and another feature was the presence of a number of members of the Salvation Army. The Earl of Seafield was to have given his sister away, but he had to leave for Scotland, so that her brother, the Hon. Trevor Ogilvie-Grant performed this duty. (The Rector of St. Margaret's (Canon Carnegie, M.A.) omciated, assisted by the Bey. Joseph Kingsmill, D.D. (a relative of the bride), and the Eev. Herbert Leigh-Mallery, M.A. (a relative^of the bridegroom). Lady Nina was in a gown of white crepe de chine and silver, lace-embroidered in silver thistles. The full court team of soft white satin was lined with silver tissue and trimmed with white heather and tulle. Her veil, of Limerick lace, was the gift of the Misses Alice and Annie Lee. White carnations and white roses, with one red rose for Lancashire, and white, heather for Scotland, composed the bridal bouquet, and the jewels worn were diamond necklace, earings, • and ring, the gift of the bridegroom. The little train-bearer was Miss Joan OgilvieGrant, daughter of the Hon. Trevor and Mrs. Ogilvie-Grant; she was dressed in pale blue soft satin and- ninon, bordered with pale blue forget-me-nots, and a cap to match. There were two bridesmaids — Lady Caroline Ogilvie-Grant (sister of the 'bride), and Miss Olive Mary Pilkington (niece of -the * bridegroom). They wore pale pink satin and ninon, and carried bouquets of pale pink carnations and white heather; their hats of black velvet, large in shape, had a long ostrich feather falling picturesquely behind. Captain Sydney Lomer, formerly of the Lancashire Fusiliers, and now of the King's Royal Rifles, was best man. Among the numerous congregation one noticed Lady Seafield, dressed in cream crepe de chine and a rose-trimmed hat; the Dowager-Countess of Seafield, in brown; Mrs. Studholme (late of Christchurch), the Due de Chateauthierry, the Hon. Trevor, and Mrs. Ogilvie-Grant. From the church the guests went to Claridge's Hotel for the reception. Ireland has been selected for the honeymoon, and the bridal going-away dress was of dark brown ninon and silk, with a coat of crepe de chine of similar colour, and a hat of brown trimmed with wings of bine.
