THE MARRIAGE OF MISS MAUDE LEWES, OF LLANLEAR. Wednesday was eagerly looked forward to in the Vale of Aeron by high and low as the day fixed to join the hand of Miss Louisa Maude Lewes, the second daughter of Lieut. Col. Lewes, of Llanlear, to Captain Arthur Connop Newland, late 21 Hussars, now residing at Llanfair, Cardiganshire. The weather turned out at its best, and the day from early dawn was ushered in with a full forest chorus, ringing of bells, and other preliminaries to the day's rejoicings. Also from an early hour the well-wishers of the Llanlear family were busily engaged in putting up prepared and improvised bunting. The entrance gate to Llanlear was tastefully decorated, and bore mottoes expressing good wishes over it. Further on, the Penlone and Cwmrodyn villiagers turned out a creditable arch and suitable mottoes. Another very good arch had been.;erected by Mr Lloyd, of Talsarn, and Mr Evans, Gilbwn, which was profuse in bunting. Mr Davies, of Berthneuadd, greeted the young pair with his home-made emblems of Faith, Hope, and Charity, while the New Inn and Hendrelas failed not to show their feelings. At Glanwern gate an imposing arch had been erected with the motto "God bless the happy pair," which everyone that passed under it re-echoed. At the local Board School the master came out with an arch and May your sky be ever clear," was wished to the young pair,and "Amarodlawen iMaudeLewes" to the popular bride. The Felinfach villagers, on another good arch, wished them good luck" and a "welcome." The Lloyd jack party had a very neat little arch, with acceptable wishes inscribed thereon. Mr Jenkins, of Aeron Villa, on an elaborate and artistic arch, greeted the Captain and Mrs Newland with warm wishes of the good things of this world. The public-houses of Ystrad vied with each other to show respect in mottoes and bunting. The entrance to the churchyard and church were tastefully deco- rated. Besides these public tokens of respect and congratulations the evening witnessed not less that nine bonfires on the tops of the surrounding hills. That lighted on the top of Allfcygigfran by MrHughes, of Gellyaeron, Mr Davies, of Gilfachfran, Mr Jones, Bhiwonon, Mr Jenkins, Blaenplwyf, and others, was beautiful and imposing, and seen 12 miles round, the combustibles being oil, pitch, and dried gorse while that lighted on Penbryn was successfully kept up for hours. The wedding party began to arrive at the Llanfihangel Ystrad church soon after eleven o'clock. The bridegroom was accompanied by his best man, Mr Cressy Bingham Newland, brother of the bride- groom. The bride walked up the aisle of the church on the arm of her father, followed by her bridesmaids -Miss Lewes, Miss Gertrude Lewes, Miss Florence Lewes, sisters of the bride, Miss Griffith, Miss Mary Mott, and Miss Vaughan,_ of Brynog. The bride was dressed in rich cream satin, with train, and wreath of real orange blossoms and real Honiton lace veil. The bridesmaids were dressed in cream-sprigged muslin, Valenciennes lace and pale blue ribbons, cream bon- nets with blue aigrettes, and each carried a bouquet of forget-me-nots, the gift of the best man, and wore a gold bangle, the gift of the bridegroom. The guests were the following :-Sir Prysc Pryse and Lady Pryse, Gogerddan Mrs Lewis, Llanayron Capt and Mrs Newland, Nantgwilit; Major and Mrs Price Lewes, Tyglyn Ayron; Mrs Davies-Evans, Highmead the Rev Rhys Lloyd, Troedyraur Bec- tory Major and Mrs Howell, Noyadd Trefawr Mr Lewis, Boyal Artillery Capt Vaughan and Miss Vaughan, Brynog; Miss Emily Connop, Miss Ohailotta Harford, Miss Mott, Capt Jones-Parry, Capt Thomas Lewes, Mr Cressy B. Newland, Miss Fletcher, Professor CuUey, Lampetar; Mr John Griffith, Miss Cater, and Miss Grace Lewes. The wedding party beiog in the chancel, the door was thrown open to the throng who had come to the chuichyard to elJjoy and admire the procession. To say that the spacious church was soon over-crowded would he less than the fact, for scores failed to squeeze themselves into it. The ceremony was per- formed by the Rev Rbys Lloyd, of Troedyraur, and the bride was given away by her father. Before the ceremony the choir, under the leadership of Mr D. Evans, sang Jerusalem the Golden," and at the conclusion, "The voice that breathed o'er Eden," with very good effect. The Vale of Aeron brass baud did excellent service during the day.

Your many virtuous qualities have long been mani- fest to all of us, and we shall greatly miss your ever kind attentions to our welfare but we are solaced by the bright prospects of your being equally endeared and endearing in an equally exalted position and in a yet more useful sphere of life. We ask your gracious acceptance of this the accompanying token of our humble but hearty congratulations and sincere good wishes for your future happiness.—We are, madam, yours respectfully, JOHN JENKINS, and 26 other tenants. In response to the above address, Miss Maude sent the following kind and gracious acknowledgment:— Gentlemen,—I thank you most heartily for yonr very kind wishes and feelings expressed in the ad- dress with which you have presented me. The beauti- ful present of a Derby breakfast service is a most welcome and thoughtful gift, and is one that will daily remind me of all my neighbours and friends in the vale of Ayron. I feel quite unable to find words to express how much I appreciate your kind gift, of itself a most costly and valuable present, but the value is to me much enhanced by your added expres- sion of good will and kindness. I regret "extremely I am unable to thank you individually, and believe me, gentlemen, yours sincerely, LOUISA MAUDE LEWES. To Mr John Jenkins, and all my other friends who contributed in this kind gift. At two o'clock the tenants and their wives, to the number of 40, sat down to a substantial dinner at the Red Lion, Talsarn, where a number of interesting toasts and addresses were made, of which a full report will appear next week.
