Wedding -- The marriage of Mr. Thomas Watters, J.P. and Parish Councillor, Glenample, and Miss Marian Stewart, only daughter of the late Mr. Duncan Stewart, Monachyle, was celebrated on Tuesday. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. D. Cameron, B.D., minister of the parish, assisted by the Rev. D. M. Macrae, M.A., Free Church, Lochearnhead, brother-in-law of the bridegroom. The bridesmaids were Miss Stewart, Milton, Callander, and Miss Jeanie M. Macrae, Lochearnhead. Mr. T. D. Paton, Perth, acted as best man. The marriage was to have taken place at Craigruie, the residence of the bride's brother, Mr. J.M. Stewart MacDonald of Monachyle, but owing to the recent death of the father the event took place very quietly at Monachyle. Among the presents sent by public bodies were a pair of beautiful silver candelabra and diamond and peral bracelet from the Breadalbane Agricultural Association, Mr. Watters being for several years Vice-President. He is also President of the Breadalbane Lochearnhead Club, and the members presented him with a pair of silver and ivory curling stone handles and a silver-mounted broom. The servants on the Monachyle estate gave a silver tea tray, and those at Glenample gave a marble dining-room timepiece. There were nearly 200 private presents."
