Notes WEDDING.
GALLAGHER - HARFORD
At the Salvation Army Citadel Manchester street, yesterday, a very interesting wedding was celebrated, the contracting parties being Mr H. Gallagher and Miss E. Harford (daughter of Mr and Mrs G. J. Harford). The bride, who was given away by her father, was neatly attired in the Salvation Army costume, and wore the white silk wedding sash, with a spray of orange blossom. Lieut. Bessie Harford (from Onehunga) acted as bridesmaid, and Mr T. Hill acted as groomsman. Alma Bain and Thelma Edwards were flower girls, and were dressed in cream and wore pale blue sashes. They carried baskets of flowers. Brigadier Carmichael, from Wellington, conducted the ceremony. Mrs James, of Feilding, played the "Wedding March," and the Salvation Army Band, of which Mr H. Gallapher is a member, played a suitable selection. The hall was tastefully decorated for the occasion by friends of the bride. As the happy couple left the hall, they were greeted with showers of confetti and rice. The wedding party and guests then adjourned to Whitehead's tea rooms, where a very happy time was spent, the usual toasts being called for and many pleasing speeches made. The presents received by the bride and bridegroom have been numerous, amongst the number being a handsome marble clock, suitably inscribed, presented by the members of tbe band. Messrs W. H. Bain and Co. and staff, of which Mr H. Gallagher is a member, presented him with a handsome oak and silver salad bowl. After the wedding breakfast, the happy couple left for Palmerston North by motor.
