 IS HELD ON LAWN
(Continued From First Page)

sachusetts car was sc,n approaching I bearing former President and Mrs. ! Calvin CoolidGc. As the machine | turned into the Trumbull driveway, q large din went up and the Coo- 1 lidgeS were accorded q great recep- ton. This display of enthusiasm failed to move the composure of the | former chief executive and he made no sign that he had heard the 1 crowd. Mrs. Coolidge smiled and waived. Evidently the arrival of the Coolidgcs was unexpected as no one was at the door to greet them. A state policeman admitted them to 1 the mansion.
 Shortly after, various persons be gan to hustle about the grounds of the estate and the interest of the | crowd began to grow to fever pitch as il was realized that the bridal party would soon leave for | the church. With the. passing of every minute, the proportion of the crowd increased When the space | in front of the home was filled the 1 curious began 10 take up their stand | on the opposite side of the street. 1 In spite of the large number of 1 people, the police were given little ] trouble and were not handicapped in their attempts 10 preserve order.
 The operations of the state police officers wcr" directed by Superin- tendcnt Frank .I. Nichols, who pa trolled the town in an automobile, accom- panied by five fellow officers.

 Exactly at &;45 o'clock, the bride groom. accompa.i"d by his best man. stephan Brown. came out of the house and started for the church. His appearance caused a great jam among the crowd as all struggled for a place of vantage to sec him. John. like his father, had a sober face and paid no attention 10 the crowd which started to clap. The car was given q clear space on the road and drove off at fast clip.

Henry Eoraback, national republican committeeman, , occupied the interest of the gather ing while awaiting the appearance 1 of the bride. At $40 o'clock, the bridal party started for the church. . FThn rt,- Il1 l. l taining the Coolidges. The ex- president was again accorded d i great reception from the crowd and astonishcd all by smiling and rais- ing his hat. This action on the part of Mir. Coolidge left the crowd in a dazc for it is very seldom that he departs from his staid appearance. Mrs. Coolidge appeared to be in great spirits and waved her hand 0 the crowd in an enthusiastic . manner. This action brought an- other round of cheers from the gathering. The second car in the assemblagc bore the bridesmaids while the third car contained the smiling bride and her parents, Gov ornor and Mrs. John H. Trumbull. All three greeted the gathering with broad smiles but did not raise their hands to wave.
 Women Admire Gowns
 i Florence. in comparison to John, appeared to be in good spirits. Cries of admiration arose from the women spectators as they caught gIimpScs of the beautiful satin gown of tn" bride. As soon as the party had disappeared down the road, servants and walters could be seen dashing in and out of the house as they made ready for the wedding reception.
 Exactly at 4:0S o'clock a car was heard speeding down the highway It proved to be the machine bearing the ncWlyWcds and the crowd went wild as they clappcd and shouted words of congratulation. The ma chine proceeded directly to the side door of the home where the couple was assisted from the car by state officer. Although John wore a serious look on his face, he shook hands warmly with the policeman.
 The rest of the bridal party re- turned home at intervals during the next 5 minutes. The cx-president had returned to his usual composurs by this time and paid no heed to the crowd
