The leafy month of June will not, it is
understood, witness some of the weddings
which have been talked of as possibilities
for that period. Some of the engagements
that would have naturally led up to these
events have been of such lengthy duration
that all parties concerned have grown used
to waiting, and, all things considered, the
wedding day can be just as easily post
poned till next autumn. But there will be
many pretty weddings in June, just the
same, although only few of them may
have any but local interest. Ii would be
quite in the line of the matrimonial events
with which society has been entertained
all the spring to have an engagement an
nounced within the coming fortnight that
will Rave an especial interest even at this
coming everyday affairs, and are really
no longer creating any especial furore.
