all fashionable London was thrilled the
other day, the common folks crowding
around the church doors, when Miss Daisy
CORVALLIS West was enthusiastically made

Hans Heinrich, eldest son of the Prince
and Princess of Pless, of the Schloss OF
Furstenstein, Silesia, and the bride the
eldest daughter of Colonel William Corn
wallis West, member of parliament and
of family not unknown in American war
and diplomacy.
Among those present were the Prince OF
Wales, Duke and Duchess of Connaught,
Duke of Teck, Prince and Princess Of SAKE
Weimar, the German, Turkish, Russian
and Italian ambassadors, Mr.. Henry White
and Commander Emory, of the United
States. Prince and Princess Malcolm Khan,
and long array of ordinary lords, ladies,
counts, knights and esquires; but the
great interest appears to have been in
the dresses and presents. st. Margaret's
church, Westminster, where the ceremony
took place, was in blaze of silks, jewels
and costly decorations, and at the town
residence of Miss Fleetwood Wilson, where
the reception was held, a long dining room
table was literally loaded with gifts, rang
ing from necklaces of pearls and diamonds
down to sapphire bracelets.
