WEDDINGS - Gordon & Robertson
A pretty wedding was quietly celebrated on Wednesday, March 7, at North Terrace, Adelaide, between Evelyn Minnie, only daughter of Dr. and Mrs. W. Robertson, and Mr. Linley Gordon, of Mantung, SA. The bride, who was given away by her father, was a dainty figure in a white crepe de chine coat and skirt, worn with a white plush turban, encircled with gold roses, and she carried a faint pink posey. Pastor Franklyn officiated. After the ceremony afternoon tea was served. The table was decked with palest-pink roses, and watsonia. Later in the afternoon the bride and bridegroom left by the express for Melbourne en route to America. The bride travelled in a navy crepe de chine coat frock. A number of friends were at the station to say farewell and von voyage. Among those present at the ceremony were Mrs. W. Robertson (bride's mother), wearing a white crepe de chine coat and skirt, and black-and-white hat; Mrs. Fowler Stewart, Mrs. William Green, Misa Madge Magarey, Mr. and Mrs. Eric Robertson, Master Douglas Robertson, Mrs Scott, Misses Scott, Mr. and Mrs. George Trott, and Miss Ethelwyn Trott.
