    3. Friday January 12,1906 A wedding took place yesterday week at "Bonnie Brae" Coleraine, when Miss Mary Ann WATSON, daughter of Mr and Mrs Richard DRUMMOND, was married to Mr Henry KNIGHT, of Natimuk, by the Rev. David MILLAR. The bride was costumed in cream voile, trimmed with silk ruche and lace, and had also the usual wreath and veil. Miss Marjory R. DRUMMOND, who carried out the duties of bridesmaid, was in grey voile, with gnipure trimming and white lace. Mr CREAN, of Hamilton, was best man. The bride, writes the Albion, became the happy possessor of a watch and chain given by the family, besides a cheque from the bridegroom. The latter received from the ' better half ' a gold breast pin, and the bridesmaid was presented with a gold chain by the bridegroom. After the ceremony the wedding party sat down to an elaborate spread, at which the table decorations were very fine. The Rev. D. MILLAR proposed the toast of the bride and bridegroom, which was responded to by Mr Knight. Mr G. DRUMMOND proposed the toast of the bridesmaid, which was responded to by Mr CREAN, and that of the parents, was safely entrusted to Mr. MOORE, Mr. Richard DRUMMOND suitably replied. The presents were valuable and plentiful. WEST WIMMERA MAIL WEB SITE www.ballaratgenealogy.org.au/goroke/index.html Daryl Crabtree Gladstone C.Qld Australia
