OVERALL - ROBINS.
As briefly mentioned in a previous issue the marriage of Mr. Henry Overall and Miss Avie Robins took place on July 25, at the residence of the bride's step-father (Mr. Geo. Glare), the guests being relatives and intimate friends. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Vineer.

Afterwards at the wedding breakfast the customary toasts were honored. The bride, who was given away by her stepfather, was beautifully arrayed in ivory taffeta and crepe de chene, richly embroidered and finished with-silk stitchery.

The customary veil drawn over the hair and encircled with a bandeau of orange blossom completed a very pleasing attire. The bride was attended by her cousin, Miss May Robins, who was very prettily attired in ivory crepe de chene, trimmed with silk lace and cable stitching and wore a gold pendant brooch, the gift of the bridegroom. Little Topsy Roberts, after the ceremony, placed a lucky horse shoe, trimmed with-satin streamers and orange blossom, on the arm of the bride. The bride's travelling dress was a brown costume with a nigger-brown hat and wore a set of black furs, the gift of the bridegroom.
