Tillidge'97Medcraf.
The marriage of Mr. Charles Henry Tillidge, of Rockhampton, and Miss Lily Medcraf, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. Medcrif, was quietly celebrated at the residence of the bride's parents, Rose-leigh, The Range, Rockhampton, on Wed-nesday morning, May 11 (writes our Rockhampton correspondent). The bride was given away by her father, and the Rev. J. Bongers, pastor of the Murray-street Congregational Church, officiated. The drawing-room, in which the cere-mony took place, was charmingly arrang-ed with white lilies (in compliment to the bride's name) and asparagus plumosus. The bride was attired in a dainty gown of white Swiss robing over a princesse lawn slip .The bodice was prettily tuck-
ed and inlet with broderie Anglaise, and finished with a demi-empire sash and ends of merveilleux ribbon. The semi-empire skirt was arranged with a front panel of broderie Anglaise, and was also finely tucked. Her soft white silk hat was orna-mented with white feathers. Miss Rose Medcraf (sister of the bride) was brides-maid, and Mr. A. B. Catt acted as bestman. Miss Mederaf was prettily dressed in rose du barry striped silk eolienne, over a pale blue slip, relieved with cream and soutached in pale blue. A braided belt and a black hat with white plumes completed her costume. Immediatelyafter the ceremony a wedding breakfast was served in the dining room, and the usual toasts honoured. The decorations on the table were again carried out in white water lilies and asparagus plumo-sus, and a handsome wedding cake was a prominent feature. Mrs. Medcraf wore a very effective floral voile costume, trimmed with cream guipure lace and touches of black silk, and a stylish floral toque. The bride and bridegroom, who were the recipients of numerous valuable presents, left by the Cooma for the North. The honeymoon is being spent at Cairns and the Banon Falls. The bride's going away gown was of navy blue silk, worn with a navy blue Sicilian travelling coat with long revers soutached with braid. She also wore a navy blue hat.
