began with the prescribed Anglican formula:
 Dearly beloved, we are gathered here in the sight of God. to join together this man and this woman in holy matrimony. which is an honorable estate. and therefore is not by any to be enter prised, nor taken in hand, unadvis- edly, lightly, or wantonly, to satisfy mems carnal lusts and appetites, like brute beasts that have no under standing; but reverently, discreetly, advisedly, and in the fear Of God, a.
 Edward, Albert, etc, wilt thou have this woman to thy welded wife to live together after Gods ordi- nance in the holy state of natri- mony: wilt thou love her, comfort her, honor and keep her in sickness and in health; and, forsak:pg all other, keep thee only unto him, so long as ye both shall live?"
 T will" (Response).
 Wallis Warfield, wilt thou have this man to thy welded husband, to live together after Gods ordi- nance in the holy state of matri- mony? Wilt thou obey him and serve him, love, honor and keep h1m in sickness and in health, and, forsak- ing all other, keep thee only unto him, as long as yc both shall live?"
 T will" (Response).
 "Who giveth this woman to be married to this man?"
 Herman L. Rogers, the dukes old friend, stepped slightly forward to give the bride away.
 They Joined Hands
 The duke and his duchess then joined hands, and, repeated after the minister: T, Albert Edward etc. (Wallis WarfielO take thee, Wallis Warfield (Albert Edward etc.) to my welded wife (husband) to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part, according to Gods holy or dinance; and therefore | plight (give) my troth."
 The couple then unclasped their hands and the duke put the wedding ring of Welsh gold on the book. The minister picked 1t up and returned it to the duke, who slipped it on the fourth finger of the left hand of his duchess.
 Holding her hand, with his finger on the ring, he recited:
 With this ring thee wed, with my body I thee worship, and with all my worldly goods I thee endow: in the name of ther Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen"
 The minister then concluded the service with the prescribed prayers and psalm, including the following prayer:
 Almighty God, who at the begin- ming did create our first parents, Adam and Eve, and did sanctlfy and join them together in marriage: pour upon you the richest of His grace, sanctify and bless you, that we may please Him both in body and soul, and live together in holy love unto your lives end. Amen"
 Famous Organist There
 As the duke and duchess Knelt on their white silk cushions in the music room where this ceremony was solemnized, gay flowers every where, the sun shining in the win- dows, the strains of the organ echoed through the rambling cha teau.
 Organist Marcel Dupre, famous in the United States and Canada as well as his France, inaugure tor of the famous Wanamaker organ in America, played all through the ceremony, softly as the service went on. He sat in the library at .l!s stops. Around him were the servants of the chateau whom the duke espe- cially invited to the ceremony.
 The duchess was beautiful. They would not let her rank as royal duchess, "her royal highness," but she was gracious, serene figure as she knelt at the altar-cheSt.
 Her gown was of Wallis blue. a pale shade like hyacinth. It was floor length, Sandal-llke shoes showing beneath
 Must Be Public
 We were told that outside, in deference to French law which pre- scribes that civil wedding ceremonies must be public, gendarmes threw open the gates as Mayor Mercier be- gan his lines. The gates changed cl,,,t ac tl,ic civ;l oaran,Ony, apdaJ
 The wedding for history was en- tered in the mayors official register immediately after that of Alexis Sanger, farmer, to Solange G,laltier. dress maker, the last couple the mayor had married.
 AS the ceremony ended and the guests and the newlyweds gathered in the great library for coneratula- tionS, photographers were admitted to photograph his royal highness the Duke of Windsor and her grace the duchess.
 One topic of comment, as the ten sion eased, was that the shy duke did not kiss his bride after either civil or religious ceremony.
 We had noticed that he was nerv- ous. But not once did he give in to his old habit of f1ddling with his necktie. His boyish, earnest voice was firm and clear in the responses.
 Duke Talks With Guests
 When the ceremony was complet- ed, the duke strolled among his guests. In talking with w. Cum mings Graham, British consul at Nantes, the duke learned that Gra- ham previously had been stationed in Ecuador and displayed great in- tereSt.
 He launched into an animated conversation about South America and revealed wide knowledge of names and places.
 T understand Ecuador's capital. Quito, is at a very high altitude" he remarked. T have been in most of South America but not there"
