(By our Auburn correspondent)
Beraniller United Church was

Lilies last Saturday afternoon,
March 28, 1959, when. Margaret
Gail Gardner became the bride
of William Donald Bowra, Strat-
ford.
Rev. Stanley Moote officiated at
the ceremony. The bride is the
daughter of Mrs. Keith Gardner
and the late Keith Gardner, Col-
borne township, and the groom is
the son of Mr. and Mrs. George
Bowra, Goderich,
The bride, given in marriage by
her uncle, Eric Gardner, Kitchen-
er, was lovely in a white gown of
silk organdy, fashioned on prin-
cess lines with a large flowing
skirt. The rounded neckline was
accented with pearls and her fin-
ger-length veil was held in place
by Lily-of-the-valley and orange
blossom headdress. She carried a
white prayer book covered with
red rose buds and stephanotis.
Mrs. Hugh Faegan ,was her sis-
ter's matron of honour, wearing a
gown of ice-blue crystallette in
ballerina length, matching hat and
gloves, and carried a nosegay of
white 'mums and pink carnations.
Little Miss Sandra Faegan,
niece of the bride was the pretty
flewer-girl wearing embroidered
yellow nylon marquisette dress
and carrying a nosegay of small
flowers,
The groom was attended by
Jack Hicks, Toronto, and the ush-
ers were Elmer Jenkins, Goderich,
and Hugh ,Faegan, Colborne Town-
ship,
Traditional wedding music was
played by Mrs. Ben Straughan,
Colborne, and the soloist, Mrs.
Betty Chisholm, Goderich, (sister
of the groom) sang the Lord's
Prayer and Because.
Following the service a recept-
ion was held at the Club Grill.
For a wedding trip to United
States, the bride chose a navy
blue dress with white accessories
and a powder blue coat. On their
return they will reside in Strat-
ford. Guests were present from
