Bertram, Rotorua, was married to the Rev. Matthew Lewis Calder, second son of the Rev. Jasper Calder. MB.E., and Mrs. Calder, of the Auckland City Mission. The bride has been an enthusiastic follower of the hunt and her father has been master of the hunt ever since its inception. In accordance with hunting traditions, she was, therefore, granted the privilege of an official hunt wedding, and the bridegroom, who is a member of the Cambridge Hunt Club, was himself in hunting costume, while a large number of huntsmen in full regalia formed a mounted guard of honour, complete with hounds, as the couple left the church after the ceremony. The bride and bridegroom Will make their home in Napier, where Mr. Calder has been. appointed to the Napier Cathedral.
