Marriage to Thomas Bowling
A pretty wedding took place at St John's Church, Moss Vale, on the 25th August, when Mr. T. J. Bowling (late of Queensland), eldest son of the late Mr. R. Bowling, of Burrow-house, Lancashire, England, was married to Mrs. J. W. Hester, eldest daughter of Mr. W. B. Smith, of Darbalara, Gundagai. The Rev. G. Sheppard was the officiating clergyman. The bride, who was given away by her father, wore a handsome tailor-made gown, of gray tweed; her hat was of green satin straw, trimmed with shaded cream and green poppies. After the ceremony the wedding party adjourned to Venata, the residence of the bride's brother-in-law, Mr. T. A. McCarthy, and later in the afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Bowling drove to Bowral, where the honeymoon will be spent. Only the immediate relatives of the bride and bridegroom were at the wedding, which was a very quiet one. Mrs. Bowling is a sister-in-law of Dr. Scott-Skirving. |
