- Notes: Wedding. THOMPSON—KNOX. A very pretty military wedding was solemnised in St. Clement's Church, Yass, on Wednesday afternoon, when Sergeant Raymond George Thompson, 20th Batt., A.I.F., of Stanley, Victoria, was united in the bonds of holy matrimony to Eliza, third daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Knox, of Yass. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. W. Holliday. As the bride entered the church on the arm of her father, the organist, Mr. Fletcher, played the Wedding March. The bride, who was attired in a dress of crepe-dechine with pretty hat to match, looked charming. She carried a shower bouquet of white stocks and sweet pea tied with the bridegroom's colors, and wore a gold wristlet watch, gift of the bridegroom. The bridesmaids were Misses Annie Knox and Ruth Duddleston, the bridegroom's gift being a cameo brooch. The bridegroom and his best man, Private Jack Duddleson, wore their military uniforms. The bride's gift to the bridegroom was a gold watch chain. After the ceremony the wedding party proceeded to the Club House Hotel, where the wedding breakfast was generously and hospitably provided by Mrs. Duddleston. The usual nuptial toasts were proposed and honored. After a very pleasant time, the happy couple left by train for Sydney, where the honeymoon will be spent. The presents were numerous and costly. |
