DWARFS’ WEDDING.
CHATTERING SPECTATORS REBUKED IN CHURCH. So great was the noise made bv chattering spectators that a wedding service at Holy Trinity Church, Weymouth, was three times interrupted while the clergyman called for silence. The heads of the bride and bridegroom did not reach the rails of the altar, for they were two dwarfs, Miss Eliza Victoria Wallbridge, 3ft. 2in., and Mr, Alfred Goodwin, a travelling showman, who stands 3ft. 4in. The wedding present of the bridegroom’s employer to the couple was a specially made caravan and furniture.
