Ava Willing Astor, who was constant
ly at Hopeland House during the ILL
ness of her son, will leave New York
today with her daughter, Miss Murie,,
for Ferneliffe, the Aston country place
at Rhinebeck. After the wedding
they will return to New York, and
they expect to sail on Saturday for
England.
The details of the wedding as now
arranged are in contrast with those
made originally. About siXty-five
guests will attend. There are to be
eight tables, each arranged for eight
persons. The brides table will be like
, the others except for the wedding
cake.
After the ceremony Mr.. and Mrs.
Astor will probably remain for some
time either at Hopeland House or at
Ferncliffe, which is not far away. 1t
was their purpose to tour France by
automobile and then to be entertained
by Mrs. Ava Willing Astor in London.
This original plan will be followed
out If Mr. Astor continues to improve
in health. He has been able to be
about the house during the last week
and his physicians have no fears of
a relapse.
