MORRIS COUNTY CHRONICLE. FRIDAY JUNE 26 1903

I
fair was one of the most cheerful the
busy little house which stands at the
head of "The Bowl has had in some
time. The guests were all members of
the younger set, and their wit and
buoyancy added a spicy flavor to the
tasty inventions with which the table
was laden
The charming musicals morning,
afternoon and evening-which were so
prominent feature of the mid-Season
in town have been abandoned, but, of
course, will be revived when the fall
brings back to this city the devotees
of the soothing art.'' There are oc-
casional mornings of music given
by the younger element, but they are
not formal affairs and seem to be con-
fined to the very intimate friends of
the young women who give them.
They are end of the season incidents
and as a rule, impromptu. 1t may be
added, though, that they are all the
more enjoyable because Of the absolute
freedom from restraint which marks
them.
Miss Cornelia Van Wyck Halsey,
daughter of Mrs. Edmund Drake Hal
sey, of ''Good Rest" Rockaway, was
married to Frederic Rogers kellogg, of
New York, Wednesday afternoon at st.
Johns Church, Dover, in the presence Of
only their immediate relatives and init
mate friends. The ceremony, which
was performed by Rev Mr.. Pickslay,
was followed by a large and brilliant
reception at the home of the brides
mother at Rockaway, at which many
from this city were present.
The bride is connected with one of
the oldest and most distinguished Of
the Morris county families, and is dis
family related to the Essex county Hal
seys. She was gowned in a robe of
heavy white satin, cut en- train and
trimmed with old point lace Her
veil was of tulle, and is the same one
worn by the BRIDES mother at her
marriage. 1t was caught up with a
cluster of orange blossoms. Miss Vale
Ewing, of ST. Louis, was the maid of
honor, and Howard McWilliams was
the best man. The usherS were S.
Villas Beckwith, John N. B. Blair,
Irving T. Bush and Samuel Lever.
The Rockaway residence was trimmed
with quantities of flowers and palms,
the colors green and white predomi-
mating.
There was delightful musicale at
the Golf Club Wednesday which
seventy guests attended. 1t was one
of the club functions. The music was
furnished by VanBaar, Of New York,
with an orchestra of six pieces. No
special attempt at unusual decoration
was made, but enough had been done
to make formidable contrast with the
weather conditions as they existed out
of doors. The concert lasted from four
to six, and tea was served during it's
progress.
One of the social events of the sea-
son took place at high noon on Wednes-
day, when Miss Elizabeth Edwards,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. j. NJ. Ed
wards, of Madison avenue, was married
to Mr.. William A. Lockwood, of New
York. The ceremony was performed
at the home of the BRIDES parents by
the Rev. Mr.. Lockwood, father of the
bridegroom, assisted by Rev. DR.. Ste
venson, pastor of the Fifth Avenue
Presbyterian Church, of New York.
The best man was Samuel Lockwood,
uncle of the bridegroom, and the maid
OF honor was Miss Marion Edwards,
sister of the bride.
After brief wedding tour, Mr.. and
Mrs. Lockwood will return to Norris
town and remain here until Septem-
Der first, when they will take up their
permanent residence in New York city.
