The following from a Winnipeg pa- per has reference to the marriage of a former young man of Exeter, to a pop- ular young lady of Winnipeg:—"One of the very pretty events of the season was solemnized to -day at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Watson Kilbourne, 235 Donald street, when their daughter, Edna Louis, was united in marriage with Mr. Aquilla Snell, of Exeter. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Arch Deacon Fortin. The bride looked charming attired in white crepe de chene over white taffeta with vat and orange blossoms and carrying a beau- tiful bouquet of white bridal;roses. She was escorted to; the alter by her father, who gave her away. She was assisted by her sister, Miss I110 Kil- bourne, who looked very pretty, hand- somely gowned in pale blue crepe de chene and carrying a bouquet of pink roses. The groom was assisted by Mr. Jas. Black, of this city. After the cere- mony a dainty wedding repast was served and the happy couple received the congratulations of those present. Mr. and Mrs. Snell left on the:North- ern Pacific train for a six weeks' trip to Chicago, Toronto and otherEastern cities. The many costly and beautiful presents received were an indication of the popularity of the bride and those who knew her< will wish her a happy future. New plaid silk for swell shirt waists.

L! . iv 'fuE' M N endquar.'ters for the C1"elebr ded W. E. Sandford Ready 1f;rde Clothing. Rev. Ten Eyck Resigns. At a special vestry meeting of the s Trivitt fliemorial church, held on Mon- day night last, the Rev. J. W. Ten Eyck, who has been rector of the par vi ish for the past four years tendered bis resignation, to take effect after Sunday 18 next. The Rev.gentlemaan being pres- ent gave his reasons for the step he a purposed taking, namely to again at- d tend College and thus better equip himself for the duties that devolve up- of on him as a minister of the gospel. In tendering his resignation he stated that it was one of the hardest trials of M his life and particularly since entering H the ministry, but be felt in justice to himself and the calling he had chosen to pursue, it was the proper thing to ni do, and therefore asked the vestry to R consider it favorably to his wishes. A large number of those present expres- in sed their deepest regretsand sorrow ho at his intentions, after which it was. moved, seconded and carried that his resignation be accepted and that a suitable address be drafted, setting. forth Mr. Ten Eyck's many good qual- ities as a minister and as an expression of reward and appreciation of his ser- vices during his incumbency in the parish. It may be said that a minis- ter more worthy of these expressions of personal esteem and approval has not at any time ministered among the congregation of the Trivitt Memorial. He has been a most active and faith- ful worker in all his relations with the church and markedly devouted in his ministrations among; the sick or less fortunate of the people. It is safe to say that few clergymen have left here whose departure will be more regret- ted. Rev. Ten Eyck stood high in the esteem of the people of every other de- nomination; his religion was ofa deep- ly spiritual sort,' free from cant and bigotry, and in his dealings with men he was straightforward and courage- ous. He was not afraid to act out his conviction and his religion was not of cloistered kind which secluded itself from the actual life of men. The church has prospered under his incumbency, and in religious work no one could have been more assiduous or earnest for the spiritual welfare of everyone who attended the church. The best wishes of the members of his church and many friends, accompany him and may the most High prosper his efforts in that which he is about to engage, is the wish of the ADVOCATE.
