Northey, of Northam, was married to Thomas Matthew, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Shaw, of Manchester, England. The Rev. W. B, Kirby performed the ceremony.
The bride entered the church on the arm of her brother, Mr. Joseph Northey, to the strains of the "Wedding March," and looked charming in a frock of white georgette relieved with a yoke and basque of silver tinsel lace. The skirt was peaked with tinsel edging, dipping gracefully giving the uneven hemline.
Her beautiful tulle veil handsomely embroidered, which formed the train, was held in place by a coronet of silver tinsel and orange blossom, and she carried a shower bouquet, of white chrysanthemums and creamy rosebuds.
She was attended by her sister Ella, who wore soft mauve crepe de chine, with uneven flared skirt and swathe sash. Her headdress was of pink tulle and. forget me nots, and her shower bouquet was of carnations and rosebuds to tone Mr. Robert Northey acted as best man.
