No formality in the arrangements was observed, the graceful clusters of flowers relieved with fine traces of greenery being far more charming than any formal deco rative scheme could have been. The spring colors expressed in the sweet peas were reflected in the lovely or gandie frocks of the brides attendants.
 The service was read promptly at 6:15 o'clock by Rev. Bertrand Cocks of the Trinity Pro- cathedral
