  Notes	WEDDING AT KIHIKIHI. WESTGATE - RUSHBROOKE A very pretty wedding was solemnised in Christ's Church, Kihikihi, on Monday last, by Rev. F. W Clarke, when Miss Alice Mary Rushbrooke, eldest daughter of Mr and Mrs E. E. Rushbrooke, of Kihikihi, late of Great Ellingham, Norfolk, England, was married to Mr William Arthur Westgate, fourth son of Mr and Mrs Albert Westgate, of New Buckenham, Norfolk, England. The bride, who was given away by her father, looked very becoming in her dress of cream cashmere trimmed with lace insertion, and she also wore a wreath and veil. She was attended by her sister Miss Bertha Louise Rushbrooke, who wore a peacock blue costume with hat to match. The bride's brother, Mr Alban George Rushbrooke fulfilled the duties of best man. The happy couple left by the express for Wellington en route for England by the "lonic," the bride wearing a navy blue cloth costume with hat to match. A reception was afterwards held at the home of the bride's parents, when besides some colonial friends a great number of Old Country, especially ex-Norfolk, friends were present to wish the newly-wedded pair every happiness and bon voyage.
