    A correspondent writes: -- A pretty wedding was quietly celebrated at “The Colls,” Mundijong, on the 14th inst., only relatives being present. The contracting parties were Mr. E. W. Gilleland, only son of the late Mr. Alec. Gilleland and Mrs. Bertram, of  “St. Roman’s,” Springvale, Melbourne, and Miss Elsie Neate, Mundijong. The bride looked very graceful in a charming empire frock of white ninon, and the usual orange blossoms were worn. She was attended by her sister, Miss Jean Neate, who wore a beautiful semi-empire frock of soft cream material, handsomely embroidered. Mr. Stacey acted as best man. The Rev. A. S. C. James, of St. Andrew’s, Perth, performed the ceremony. After luncheon the bride and bridegroom drove to Armadale. Many beautiful and costly presents were received from friends in Western Australia and the Eastern States.
