WEDDING KELL — COOPER On the afternoon of the Kings Birthday (June 3) a pretty wedding took place at the Tumut Presbyterian Church, where Miss Jessie Kirk Cooper, youngest daughter of Mrs. Clara Cooper, of Russell-street, and the late James K. Cooper, was united in holy wedlock with Harry Arthur James Kell, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. James Kell of "Riverview," Lacma lac, Rev. Walton being the marriage celebrant. The interior of the church had been ornately decorated with suitable blooms, and the cermony was performed 'neath an arch of white flowers and a wedding bell suspended overhead, the decorations being un dertaken by young lady friends of the bride. A large number of rela tives and interested friends and well wishers assembled to witness the happy event. The bride, who was escorted up the aisle to the altar by her brother, Herbert, who gave her away, was charmingly attired in white georgette over, crepe-dechene, diamante trimmings, with orthodox wreath and veil (lent by her cousin, Mrs. C. C. Campbell, 'Burnside,' Gilmore) . She was attended by her sister (Mrs. Edgar Ibbotson) as matron of honor, who wore pink, race over crepe-de-chene and tulle head dress, and a necklet of crystal beads. (gift of the bridegroom). The bou quets were composed of delicate blooms from the gardens of Dr. Browne and Mrs. Owen Dowling. Mr. John Kell ('groom's cousin), filled the role of best man. Miss ''Pops" Walton persided at the organ, playing "The Voice that Breathed O'er Eden" as the bride entered the church, and The Wedding March as the newlywedded left the church. The recep tion was held in the hall next the residence of the bride's mother, who, robed in black satin, received the guests. The room was beautifully de corated by the bride's friends. The mother of the bridegroom's dress was of black crepe-de-chene, putty trim mings. The bride's aunt, Mrs. A. McLennan (Randwick) wore satin crepe-de-chene. Mr. Harry Cooper (brother of the bride) came from West Wyalong to be present at the wedding. Rev. J. Walton occupied the chair at the breakfast. In front of the bride and bridegroom was a handsome 3-decker wedding cake, made and presented by the bride's brother, Tom, the delicate ornamen tations being gifts from Messrs Henry Berry and Co., Sydney. The usual toast list was gone through, the Chairman proposing the principal one, and hoping that beneficent Pro vidence would bestow upon them health, bliss and prosperity. A large display of useful and costly wedding presents were received, besides a cheque for a substantial sum from the parents of the 'groom, and others of lesser value from other relatives. The bride presented the groom with a travelling rug and the groom his bride with a leather suit-case. Amid showers of confetti, Mr. and Mrs. Kell left per motor car on their honeymoon tour, which includes the Yarrangobilly Caves, Bega, Berry and Sydney. The bride travelled in a dress of beige satin with blue trim mings, hat to tone. Their future home will be at Tumut.
