    • 1925 'WEDDING.

      The wedding of Miss Constance Mary Molloy and Lieut. John Edward Barrett was celebrated at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception on Wednesday last, the Rev. Father Prinderville officiating.

      The service was fully choral, and Miss Kitty Cieve sang Millards Ave Maria. Mr. Taylor presiding at the organ. The church had been beautifully decorated for the occasion,the altar being massed with white arum lilies. The Misses Kathleen Molloy (sister to the bride) and Nellie Barrett {sister to the bridegroom) were the bridesmaids, and Major C. A. Kelly and Lieut. Boyes best man and groomsman respectively.

      The bride who entered the church on the arm of her father. Mr. T. O. A Molloy, looked charming in her bridal robes and long white veil (exquisitely embroidered by the Home of the Good Shepherd), and she carried a sheaf of white lilies.

      After the ceremony the bridal couple left the church under an arch of swords held by the military friends and companions of the bride groom. The reception was held at St. George's Hall, which had been garlanded in wisteria and streamers in two shades of mauve, the facade of the balcony was beautiful, hanging with these garlands, appearing like an Italiai'Pergola with its spring like festoons. Under this the hall was arranged as a drawing room where Mr. Molloy and Mr and Mrs Barrett received the guests, who then passed on to congratulate the newly married couple.

      Supper was then served and the usual toasts were honored, the chairman of the proceedings being the Hon. John Nicholson M.L.C The beautiful presents were displayed on the stage. A musical programme was arranged by Mrs' Rose Atkinson, those contributing being Mr. Byrn Samuel, Mr. T. T. Newton, and Mr. Billy Edwards. The decorations were done by Abearns, and the supper was in the hands of Mrs. I. Reilly.

      The arrangements were all made by the bride's sister, Miss Kathleen Molloy to whom tribute was paid in the toast to the bridesmaids proposed by Mr Nicholson and seconded by the bridegroom. The Lieut, and Mrs. Barrett left on their honeymoon, which is being spent motoring in the South West and at Bunbury. The going away frock was soft grey crepe Roma with touches of White and mauve and grcy and mauve hat to match
