IND you hear about the marriage Of
~ Miss Evelyn Longman, the sculp-
tress, on Monday, to Mr.. Nathaniel
Horton Batchelder, headmaster of the
Loomis School in Windsor, Conn. The
wedding was out Of doors, in a glade on
the estate Of Mr.. and Mrs. Daniel
French, at Stockbridge, Mass.
The brides costume was decidedly
unusual in that 1t was of medieval cut,
and 1t was of deep cream satin trimmed
with gold and pearls. Instead of the
conventional bridal veil of tulle or lace,
the bride wore a veil of gold net which
was arranged on her hair under coro-

commissioned to design marble por

stitution. The new Mrs. Batchelder is
the only woman sculptor member of the
National Academy of Design. She will
not give up her work, but will continue
her profession while living in Windsor.
