Englewood, N. j., May 2S.-Lindy
and Anne are married.
In surprise ceremony remark
ably simple and with only MEM
bers of their immediate families
and two friends of the fiier's father
present, the foremost air hero of
his day and the shy, slender poetic
daughter of Ambassador and Mrs.
Dwight w. Morrow were made man
and wife at p. m, Monday in the
Morrow mansion just outside En-.
glewood.
Immediately thereafter Colonel
Lindbergh and his bride roared out
of the Morrow gate in his motor
car for an unannounced honey
moon spot, far-if Lindbergh can
make it so-from the prying pub
years of his fame.
There were rumors of a flying
honeymoon. Indeed Indy with his
fair for secret moves, may have
taken to the air-a lone eagle no
longer-with Anne an hour after
the ceremony.
Soon after 5 p. M, a large dark
airplane appeared over the Morrow
estate, circled it three times flying
low, dipped in salute and then
Strengthened out in a northerly
course. Arthur H. Springer, Nor
rows secretary, who gave out the
news of the wedding, said it might
have been the honeymooning coup
lie.
1t was wedding in complete ac-
cord with Lindy's reserved manner
of life. Instead of the elaborate
fete that had been planned at the
splendid Morrow estate with not
ables of finance, politics and society
present, it was as modest as that
of any Jersey farmland and his
sweetheart.
AT family council, it was learn
ed, a decision was reached TO have
the wedding at once and to make it
as simple as possible. It was UNI
derstood Miss Morrow requested
the change in plans. Her nerves
were worn, it is said, by the crowds
of insistent reporters and camera
men who have been keeping the
Morrow family in a state of seige-
The wedding service was con-
Quoted in the drawing room of the
Morrow home, hiden from the
street in the woods at the top Of
high hill at Englewood, the house
in which the bride was born %
years ago. The ceremony was per-
formed by the Rev. DR.. William
Adams Brown, professor of syste-
matte theology in Union Theologi-
cal Seminary and close friend Of
Ambassador Morrow.
/" There were no bridesmaids.
There was no best man. There was
no altar and the room had not been
decorated for the occasion. There
were only a few flowers about
lilies of the valley, punches of
larkspur and tulips grown in the
garden of the estate-as on any
other day.
Miss Morrow was dressed beauti-
fully but with simplicity BETTING
the nature of the cere-,ony. Her
had been made by. Mrs. Mary
Smith, dressmaker of Englewood,
who has made clothes for the
daughters of the Morrow household
since they were. children. Miss
Morrow wore a short net veil but
was ungloved. She carried bou-
quet of larkspur and columbine
plucked by her fiance a few min
utes before.
Lindbergh was dressed in blue
business suit of the sort he has
made familiar, he wearing so often
on his flights.
The ceremony was a very abbre-
waited form of the Episcopalian
and Presbyterian ritual and the
word "obey" was omitted. This had
been asked by Colonel Lindbergh
himself several days ago. it was
learned, when he went to DR..
Brown and requested him to per-
form the marriage.
Such complete secrecy had been
observed that even the servants
worked about the estate through
the period of the ceremony without
suspicion that the marriage was
being held and the usual collation.
following the wedding was dis
rcnsed with so that none except
those actually attending the we'd
ding should be present Those who
cav the ceremony were Ar1bassa-
dor and Mrs. Morrow, Dwight, Jr.,
Elizabeth and Constance; Miss
Alice Morrow, Anne's aunt; Gener-
al James A. Morrow, her uncle and
his family; Mrs. Evangeline Lind
bcrgh and Mr.. and Mrs. G.. w.
Hulst, of New York City. Hulst is
Morrow's New York attorney.
Lindbergh, calm and selfpossess-
ed, made the response in a steady
voice. Miss Morrow wcs as nflur-
ried. Ambassador Morrow gave the
bride away.
After congratulations the bride
went upstairs and changed to a
dark blue travelling drcs5 topped
of with blue turban hat of felt
and straw. When she returned she
