| gan to gather in front of George I. Gould's mansion at 891 Fifth ave- nue, at an early hour, and the ser vices of number of police were brought into requisition to keep the sidewalks clear. The men assigned for this duty had brushed up their best uniforms and best helmets, pol ished their buttons, donned new white gloves and altogether pre- sented decidedly natty appearance, Up to II o'clock there was nothing to reward the patience of tic crowd which by this time lined the oppo- site sidewalk and a portion of the roadway for a distance of nearly three blocks on either side of the Gould residence. One of the first carriages to arrive contained Arch Bishop Michael Corrigan, who was accompanied by two priests and q lay brother carrying a valise which contained the arehepiscopal vest ments. Then in rapid succession rode up the handsome equipages with the invited guests. These were mostly close personal
 friends of the groom and family and it was noticeable that the Four Hundred wasn't conspicuously or numerously represented. This ele- ment in New York high society did not patronize the Gould family dur ing the Wizards lifetime and, while it has shown indications of late of warming up towards George Gould, his wife, and brothers and sisters, there has been no evidences of cor dial reeiprocation. At 11s45 the guests assembled at the north end of the trio of spacious connected par lors. There were probably 200 guests in all. The altar, which had been erected at the south end, was in white and gold; the scores of tall, lighted candles in golden stands re- fiecting with gorgeous effect upon the golden embroidery. On and about the altar were tall golden stands filled with clusters of long, stemmed Easter lilies. The mantle pieces, windows and curved hooks of the parlors were also banked with brida, roses, Easter lilies and lilies of the valley in bewildcring confusion. Promptly on the stroke of F Archbishop Corrigan and his assistants entered the main parlor and took up their position on the right and left of the altar. A mo- ment later string orchestra, sta toned in the drawing room on the other side of the hall, burst forth in a soft, sweet melody, and the bridal party were heard descending the stairs. The bride entered the we'd ding parlor on the arm of her brother, next came Mrs. George Gould, escorted by the bridegroom's father, the Marquis de Castallene. Miss Helen Gould walked side by side with Count Jean de Castallene, the Counts younger brother, and who also of1iciated as best man. The bride and groom-elect stood in front of the altar and the Archbishop advanced to meet them. On the side of the groom were his younger brother, the Prince Del Drago of Spain, grandson of ex- Queen Isabella, Howard Gould, Broekholt Cutting and Raoul Duyal, the latter close friends of the Gould family. On the side of the bride were Miss Helen Gould as the maid of honor, Miss Anna Camerson, first bridesmaids and the remaining bridesmaids, Miss Beatrice Richard son and Miss Adie Montgomery. All being in readiness, the couple knelt upon the velvet cushions, and Archbishop Cor rigan proceeded with the marri- age ritual of the Roman Catholic Church. The groom was given away by his father and the bride by George Gould. The ceremony occupied over half an hour, and at its conclusion the couple were warmly congratu- lated by the distinguished ecclesi- astic. They at once proceeded to a second parlor, where they received the congratulations of the guests. Among these were M. Patenotre, Count zarona, of Germany; the Italian Ambassador, Marquis I'm nara1i They win sail for Paris on
