that neither they those with whom
they came in contact have been disappoint-
ed. They realized all expectations INDUCED

The only note of regret at the wedding
party today of Miss Van Reypen and Baron
| Serge Alexander Korf is the fact that the
| ceremony takes away from this city as
well as country young woman whose men,
| requirements hri MT
| one who has many warm friends. The
| Greek ceremony, with its symbolical rites
| and then the Episcopal marriage service,
| will be witnessed by a group of countrymen
| both of the groom and the bride, well
| the relatives of the latter and her lifelong
| associates. Those who witnessed the mar
| riage at the Russian embassy two years ago
will be ready for the mystic but highly i'm
pressive movements of the Greek archbishop
| and attendants, but those to whom it will
| be new have strange experience ahead of
| them. The reception will bring together
very notable company. The formal wit
neSses to the ceremony will be Mr.. Theo
| Hansen. first secretary of the Russian en-
| bassy: Col. Raspopoff, military attache of
| the Russian embassy; Baron Schilling Rus
| sian vice consul in New York; Mr.. B. &c

| Julia Streeter of Concord, n. H; Mrs. Ed
| ward Marshall of Pennsylvania and Mrs.
| David Fairchild.
