WEDDING BELLS

MORIARTY. A quiet but interesting ceremony was performed at St. Patrick's Church, Greymouth, on January 12, when Miss Minnie Francis Moriarty, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T. Moriarty, of Stillwater, was united in the bonds of Matrimony to Mr. James Anthony Shelley, fifth son of Mr. and Mrs. J. Shelley, of Christchurch. The ceremony was performed by the Very Rev. Dean Carew, who celebrated the Nuptial Mass. The bride, who was given away by her father, was attired in a gown of ivory crepe-de-chine, and wore the usual wreath and veil. She was attended by her two sisters (Misses Kate and Christina Moriarty), both of whom were prettily attired for the occasion. Mr. Joseph Shelley carried out the duties of best man. After the wedding breakfast the happy couple left on a short honeymoon to South Westland, prior to leaving for their future home in Canterbury. Mr. and Mrs. Shelley carry with them the best wishes of a large circle of friends for their future happiness and prosperity.
