"Lady wishes join another in dogs' boarding home; trial first as paying guest."

Bournemouth Daily Echo.


"The wedding was a quiet one. The bridegroom's party, who motored from Colombo, were met some distance away from the Walauwa by a procession of forty-five elephants, dancers, etc., and was conducted to the bride's residence, where they were welcomed. Shortly after the arrival of the bridegroom's party, a wedding breakfast was served, seventy-five sitting down to a sumptuous repast."—Ceylon Observer.

We wonder how many elephants, dancers and guests are required for a noisy wedding, This, we note, was a quiet one.
