chester by-the-sea and will be performed by
6ev. rather Ryan, the pastor Of st. Margaret'i
Chapel at that place. Miss Eustis became a
Catholic early in the spring just before she left
Aiken, s. e., where, with her aunt, Miss Celes-
tive Eustis, and brother, Mr.. W. G. Eustis, she
had spent the winter. Her wedding will be
very quiet and will take place in the morning,
.ne pride wearing her travelling dress and
only the family circle on both sides with few
intimate friends will be present After a

Will go abroad in November and probably
spend next winter in Ireland, the guests of Mr..
W: e. Eustis at his place near Dublin. Mr..
Hitchcock spent last winter there with Mr..
Eustis. who has leased for three years more a
splendid estate not far from Dublin, where he
VIII spend SIX months Of every year to enjoy
the pleasures of country life and the hunting.
Mr.. Hitchcock and the bride-elect share his
tastes in this regard and could look forward to
nothing more delightful than Q chance for q
winters hunting in Ireland.
Where the young couple will eventually make
their home is as yet indefinite, but the chances
are that they will spend part Of each year in
the Corcoran mansion. The three grandchil-
dren, Mr.. George Eustis, Mr.. W. G. Eustis and
the bride-elect, decided last winter that they
would not rent the mansion, but would keep 1t
as their residence whenever they happened to
be in this city, which of late years has not been
at long intervals They are, however, too fond
Of the memories which cluster about their old
home to be anxious to have strangers living in
it.
Ex-senator Eustis and family are now ct
Manchester, and 30 are Mr.. and Mrs George
Eustis. 1t is their intention to go abroad next
winter, or perhaps in the spring, and remain
at least two or three years, while the education
dam
Eustis, receives its finishing touches.
The engagement Of Miss Eustis and Mr..
Hitchcock was known last winter to their fam
lilies and is the result Of an acquaintance
which dates back at least three years. It has
been received with the greatest pleasure, and
it is said that if Miss Eustis' relatives could
themselves have selected husband for her
their choice would have fallen exactlywhere hers
did. The same may be said Of the Hitchcock
family. who have been for years devoted to the
bride-elect. The groom's mother has been
lately making her a visit, and the groom him
self is now a guest at the Eustis' villa. He
spent fortnight here in May at the Corcoran
mansion and has made acquaintance in society
here.
