COUSINS—GILL. A very pretty wedding was cele- brated in Brunkerville Methodist Church on Easter Sunday, when An- nie Noreene, second daughter of the late Mr. H. Gill, and Mrs. Gill, of Brunkerville, was married to Laur- el Henry, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. R. Cousins, of Preston, Sydney. Rev.F. Trafford Walker , of Kurri Kurri, officiated. The church was bright -with flow- ers, and the bridal party stood be- neath a lovely floral arch, erected for the ceremony. Entering the church on the arm of her eldest brother, the bride was an attractive figure In white crepe satin With long sleeves, and tailored cor- sage of silk matelasse lace. The softly cowled neckline was pinned with a pearl brooch, lent by her mo- ther, and the skirt, which formed a long train, was trimmed with a double tiered frill. Her embroidered tiulle veil was mounted on cut tulle. held in place with a coronet of orange blossoms, and her trailing Bouquet of white rosebuds, asters and dahlias was the gift of Mrs. C. Short, of Mount Vincent. Misses Mabel and Daphne Gill (sis- ters of the bride) were bridesmaids. They were prettily frocked in rose pink matelasse cloque, with cowl necklines caught with diamente clips, and long slit sleeves. Thelr halos were fashioned from pink tulle, and they carried bouquets of pink rose- buds, asters and dahlias, The rock- crystal necklaces were the gifts of the bridegroom. Little Loraine Buckpete, cousin of the bride, was flower girl, and car- ried a gold basket filled with blue forget-me-nots and pink rosebuds, to match her dainty blue georgette frock and halo of blue tulle. Mr. Cyril Bannister (Sydney) was best man, and Mr. Reg. Cousins (bro- ther of the groom) was groomsman. While the register was being sign- ed, Miss Nita Buckton, of Mount Vincent, sang 'My Prayer.' After the ceremony, a reception was held at the home of the bride, where Mrs. Gill received the guests wearing a smart costume of black silk matelasse, with a white vest and matching hat. Mrs. Cousins chose an ensemble of brown suede morocain and a hat to tone. When leaving the reception, the bride carried a handsome handbag, which was the gift of the bridegroom, and matched her frock of navy flat crepe, relieved with white, and mat- ching navy hat. Thirty guests were entertained at ,the reception, following which a large gathering of approximately 100 peo- ple were entertained at a dance held in Brunkerville Hall.
