In st. Bartholomew's Church, Amid
Elaborate Floral Decorations, Vivien
Gould Becomes Bride of Lord
Deeies-PoIice Keep Guard.

Gould, second daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs George Gould and a granddaugh-
ter of the late Jay Gould, is now Lady
Decies. The ceremony that united her
with Colonel John Graham Hope
Horsley- d. S. o., fifth Bar
on Decies. was performed by Bishop
David H. Greer of the diocese of New
York, assisted by the Rev. DR.. Leigh
ton II. Parks, rector of ST. Barthoo-
news church.
Outside of St. Bartholomew's there
was a notable absence of confusion
and of the crowding excitement which
accompanied the wedding of Marjorie
Gould to anthony J. Drexel, Jr., last
April. The police kept the situation
well in hand, and, although there was
some objection made to the arbitrary
closing of Madison avenue to foot and
heavy vehicle traffic, the scheme at
least saved the disorder which other
wise would have resulted.
The police officers and men arrived
on the scene three hours before the
wedding. AT that time there were al

men, mostly the latter, in the street in
front of the church and extending
around the corner into Forty-fourth
street. The space in front Of the
church was cleared. The lines beyond
which only those possessing cards to
the church or credentials from the po-
lice department could go left prac
Gcally block free in all directions
from the church and prevented jos

ding hour when the first of the maroon
cOlored closed automobiles of the Gould
family arrived. The crowd to the north
and west of the church noted the big
white flowers in the buttonholes of the
chauffeurS and grooms and crowded
bit TO try to get peak inside. The
bridesmaids were objects of interest,
which caused more crowding, and then
came car from which stepped Miss
Edith Gould, the maid of honor: Diana
Dalziel, one of the flower girls. and
then little Miss Gloria Gould appeared
in the doorway of the machine. ma
room liyeried groom picked little Miss
Gloria up in his arms and deposited
her safe and with dress unsoiled on
the steps of the church.
Mrs. George J. Gould and Kingdom
and JAY Gould all passed the same
long distance scrutiny. Then there
was pause while the ordinary guests,
in whom the crowds were not intense
ly interested, kept filing into the
church Half dozen mounted police
men came cantering down Madison
avenue shooing traffic out Of the way,
and behind them came the last of the
Gould machines containing the bride
and her father, George ]. Gould. Mr.
Gould handed his daughter from the
carriage in such a way that the bat
terry of photographers stretched this
way and that to get good shot at
her, but she did not rush into the
church and, without turning, heard a
dozen or more shutters click before she
reached the steps.
The crowd waited quietly enough for
the return to the street of the party
on which the bronze doors had closed
Some of the watchers on the outskirts
Of the crowd decided by this time that
there was not much use in hanging
around at that distance and moved
along on their own affairs. The deser.
tiOnS reduced the pressure on the front
ranks and made the task of the police
still easier. When quick activity OF
the policemen on the street indicated
that the service was over, one of the
maroon automobiles stopped in from
of the center opening of the tent, @
lane was cleared through those privi
legged to enter its limits, and then the
bronze door was thrown back Lady
