   Marriage Notes:

"WOOLLEY-THOMPSON

A quiet, but pretty wedding was celebrated at the residence of the bride's father, on Wednesday afternoon, when Miss Edith Woolley, second daughter of Mr. Edwin Woolley, of Burrundulla, and Mr. George Thompson, only son of Mr. George Thompson, of Broombee, were united in the holy bonds of matrimony. The Rev. W. W. Danks officiated at the ceremony. The bride was given away by her father, Mr. E. Woolley, --- Woolley (brother of the bride) acted as bridesmaid [sic], while Mr. Walter Woolley (grother [sic] of the bride) filled the role of best man. The breakfast was held at the residence of the bride's father, where the usual toasts were proposed and honored. The newly-married couple left by the night's mail train for Sydney, where the honeymoon will be spent.
(We greatly regret that in the report of this wedding, printed in Thursday's "Guardian" the name of the bridegroom was, by a typographical mistake, given as Tomkins instead of Thompson.)" 8
