      The marriage was solemnised at the Parish Church on Tuesday, the Rector (Rev. H.W.N.Cave) officiating, of Miss Alice Souter, Chedburgh, and Mr Alfred Avis, The Pear Tree Inn, Whepstead. The bride was dressed in white Jap silk with veil and wreath or orange blossom, and she carried a bouquet of roses and ferns.
      She was attended by Miss G.Knight (a friend) and Miss K.Avis (sister of bridegroom); they wore dresses of Saxe blue eolienne*, with large black tulle hats trimmed with Saxe blue roses and gold braid. Both carried bouquets of sweet peas and roses, and wore gold and turquoise and pearl brooches, the gifts of the bridegroom.
      Mr Hailstone, Great Barton, acted as best man. The bride was given away by her eldest brother, Mr H.Souter (London).
      *Eolienne is a lightweight fabric with a ribbed (corded) surface.
