A WEDDING.

we're united IN marriage.
In announcing this event we inn
part nothing that is new or unex-
pected to the inhabitants of Homo
lulu. The occasion was one
amounting, il may almost be said,
TO national rejoicing. So great
was the kindly interest felt by all
classes of our city, that long before
the appointed hour, the cathedral
was crowded by an assemblage, all
in gay attire, amongst whom were
noticed many leading officials and
citizens, as well as officers from the
warships in port, met together to do
homage to, and wish blessings upon
the happy couple upon this, the one
great solemn occasion of their lives.
Many people were, by reason of
the great crush, unable to gain adj
mission to the regular entrance to
the church, but few succeeded in
getting in by the vestry door.
The peals of the organ, playing
Mendelssohn's Grand Wedding
March, announced the approaching
bride from the vestry, escorted by
Mr.. Godfrey Brown, and followed
by the following bridesmaids and
groomsmen: Miss Won Holt, Miss
Glade, Miss Mabel Rhodes, and
Miss Mist; Mr.. Meyer, Mr.. j.
Dowsett, Mr.. Muller, and Mr..
Cecil Brown.
The service was full choral
throughout. The opening hymn
GLOW welcome was the CALL" sung
with much feeling by the choir,
brought up an unusual brilliancy to
many an eye, and many voice be-
came tremulous. The bride was
"given away" by Mr.. Godfrey
Brown.
The entire ceremony was one of
great impressiveness. The large
assemblage hushed to deep silence
whilst the service was read in solemn
tones, broken slightly by emotion,
by the Rev. A. Macintosh. The
happy, yet fearful faces around,
created scene that was touching in
| the extreme.
A reception was held after the
service at the residence Of the Rev.
Mr.. Macintosh, where there was a
brilliant and numerous assemblage.
The wedding presents displayed
were simply magnificent, and quite
too numerous to even attempt an
enumeration.
The following address to Miss
Bertha Won Holt was received by
her from the members of the choir
of st. Andrews second congrega-
ton:
The undersigned members of the
choir of the second English speak
ing congregation of St. Andrew
Cathedral desire to express to Miss
Bertha Won Holt, their sincere, and
earnest good wishes on the occasion
of her approaching marriage for
her happiness and welfare. They
desire also to assure her of their
high appreciation of the constant
efforts she has made for the main
tenance and improvement of the
musical portion, at the Cathedral
and to thank her for her unvarying
kindness, and helpfulness toward
her fellow singers. They hope that
her future life, may at all times be
blessed in spiritual and temporal
respects of Almighty God.

The departure of the happy pair
this afternoon, for their home on
Kauai, will leave n blank in our
midst that will not readily be filed,
as leading soprano at st. Andrews
choir, as kindly spirit ministering
to the wants of the poor, for her
numberless good qualities and in
tluence for good in many quarters.
Miss Bertha Won Holt will be missed
indeed.
We wish her and her luck hus
band all prosperity and happiness.
