There was one disappointment for
those who attended the wedding, for
the gifts were not put on display. II
is known that these included many
beautiful and valuable articles sent
by relatives and personal friends of
the bride and groom and of their fam
lilies and by admirers of President
Wilson. Handsome presents we're
sent by both the senate and the house,
that of the latter being a diamond Ia
valliere which Miss Genevieve Clark,
daughter of the speaker, bought for
the representatives in New York.
Guests Limited to 400.
Those who were invited to witness
the wedding were mostly personal
friends and the number was kept down
close to four hundred. The list was
pared and revised several times, and
as has been said, the operation result
ed in many heartburnings. From the
house of representatives circle, for
instance, the only guests were Speaker
Champ Clark, Mrs Clark and Miss
Genevieve Clark, Marjory Leader I'm
derwood and Mrs. Underwood, and
Minority Leader Mann and Mrs. Mann.
AS might be expected. the streets
outside the White House we're as
crowded as the police would permit
with curious persons eager to watch
the arrival and departure of the guests
and trying to obtain through the win
dows a glimpse Of the doings within
The police arrangements were admir-
able and nothing happened, in the
White House or outside, to mar the
happy occasion.
The wedding of Mr.. Sayre and Miss
Wilson was the thirteenth to be cele-
brated in the White House, but the
bride has always considered 10 her
lucky number instead of a hoodoo.
There have been more than twenty
weddings in which either the bride or
groom resided in the White House,
and the last wedding ceremony per-
formed there was the one which united
Alice Roosevelt and Nicholas Long
worth. Today's event was much quiet
er than that one, and the guests not
nearly so numerous.

at 4:30 O'clock this afternoon Jessie
Woodrow Wilson, second daughter of
the president, was made the wife of
Francis Bowes Sayre. Rev. Sylvester
Beach of Princeton. N. j., performed
the ceremony.
The entire affair was very simple,
as had been requested by the bride,
and the number of guests was rather
small-distressingly so to many per-
sons in official and social circles of
Washington who had expected to re-
ceive invitations but were disappoint-
ed.
Miss Margaret Woodrow Wilson,
eldest of the three daughters, acted
as maid Of honor to her sister, and
Miss Eleanor Randolph Wilson, the
youngest, was one of the bridesmaids.
The three other bridesmaids were
Miss Adeline Mitchell Scott of Prince
ton, daughter of Prof. William B.
Scott; Miss Marjorie Brown of Allan.
Ia. Pa, daughter of Mrs. Wilson's cous-
in, Col. e. T. Brown, and Miss Mary
G. White of Baltimore, college friend
of the bride.
DR.. GrenfelI Is Best Man.
Mr.. Sayre was attended by his best
man, DR. Wilfred T. Grenfell, the ia
nous medical missionary to the fisher
men of the Labrador coast. The two
men have long been fast friends and
Mr.. Sayre spent two summers help
ing DR.. Grenfell with his work
The ushers were Charles E. Hughes,
Jr., son of Justice Hughes of the Su-
preme court and a classmate of Mr.
Sayre in the Harvard law school, Dr.
Gilbert Horax of Montclair, n. j., who
was a classmate at Williams college
in 1909 and now at Johns Hopkins uni
versity; Benjamin Burton of New
York city, and DR.. Scoville Clark of
Salem, Mass, who was Mr.. Sayre's
companion in Labrador and Newfound-
land.
Wedding Gown of Ivory Satin.
The brides gown was of satin, of
a soft ivory tint, trimmed with beau
tiful lace, both old and rare. 1t was
made in New York and the women
connoisseurs declared that it WAS
masterpiece. The lingerie in the
trOusseau is of the most dainty mate
rial and is all hand made. The maid
OF honor and bridesmaids were beauti-
,ully gowned and all looked their best
Coming right in the midst of the
chrysanthemum season, this was

that flower was used most profusely

mansion, were beautiful indeed

and the couple had received the con-
gratulations of the guests, refresh
ments were served, and then Mr.. and
