the Duke OF Westminster. The we'd
ding is regarded as the great social
event OF the year, aud Eaton Hall,
where the ceremony took place, Is the
most resplendent OF all the stately
homes OF England. The ceremony was
conducted by the Rev. q. A. Robins,
vicar OF EcclestOn, Chester, the Rev.
Canon Gerrls, chaplin OF the Duke OF
Westminster, and the Hon. Andrew +.
