Ing when John Charnock sat on the,
porch overlooking the pale waters Of
Hampton Roads past Newport /. News
and Old Point Comfort and the blue
waters Of the Chesapeake and the
bluer ocean beyond. The motor car
was stopped outside the. great gate
at the end Of the long avenue of trees
which led 10 the river road. It could

porch to; thezterrace and from the ter.
race to the lower level Of the lawn.
He did rot recognize the tall, slender

AZ and 'Bn we're stationed overhead

The details OF the wedding we're espe-
cially lovely. The bridal coIors Of
green and white were developed by the
employment Of varieties of flowers of
this hue The parlor was converted
into veritable little garden by the use
of quantities of ferns and white roses
that we're banked in every available re-
cess and which formed the background
for the altar. Miss Alethea Mary Bon
ner furnished the nuptial music, render
ing Mendelssohn's Wedding March
as professional and a love lyric dur
ing the ceremony.
The brides sweet loneliness was en-
lanced by her going-away gown, tan
ailored suit, with hand-embroidered
Messeline blouse to match A becom-
ng Tuscan hat, with touches of blue,
her toilet. She carried a
hover bouquet OF brides roses and
lies Of the valley.
