Spectators assembled at nine o’clock in the morning at the church. Some perched on the rails, of the Lady' Chapel, others climbing the niches Reserved for the sacred statues. The v,ergers vainly tried to stop, tjie public from standing on. the chairs. < When the invited guests, numbering seven hundred, arrived,.. they found that the aisles were a solid mass of people. Stalwart, policemen interlinked arms, and marched in front of the bride and bridegroom in order to force for them a way to.the Altar.
The wedding ceremony proved highly spectacular. The bride was wearing gold lace over gold laine, and a gold veil. There were eight bridesmaids wearing gowns of gold laine. Twenty-one suites of rooms wepo engaged at the Carlton Hotel for the bridegroom’s relations. The bridal reception, took the form of a huge afternoon dance. *
