- The Horsham Times, 7 Feb 1905
SOCIAL
A marriage of more than passing interest was celebrated on the 1st. inst. at "Fernleigh" (writes our Noradjuha correspondent) Noradjuha, the residence of the bride's uncles, Messrs. Symons Bros. The contracting parties were Mr. Fred Walter, fifth son of Mr. A.W. Walter, J.P., of "Oakleigh", and Eva, eldest daughter of Mr. Geo. Hill, of Noradjuha. Both families have for many years been settled in the Noradjuha district, each being well known and highly respected amongst a wide circle of friends. The bridegroom, by his abilities and willingness to assist in all matters of local interest, has proved himself a most useful and valuable member of the community; and as his marriage means departure, he will be very much missed. The local Methodist Church, of which he has been secretary and choir leader for a number of years, will especially miss his help. Of the bride, it is a high tribute to say that she has inherited the qualities of her highly respected parents; and as a most estimable young lady, .... a position she is well qualified to occupy. The Rev. W. Davey performed the ceremony, and the bridegroom was attended by Mr. S. Walter and Mr. L. Hill. The bride was handsomely gowned in creme crepe de chine bodice with tucked chiffon yoke and insertion with goffered chiffon frill; full sleeves, with lace cuff and frill of goffered chiffon falling from the elbow, finished with silk belt. The skirt shirred at the waist with deep tucked frill and insertion, court train, and usual wreath and veil, and handsome shower bouquet. The bridesmaids were Miss Lily Hill and Miss Phenie Walter. The former was frocked in a tussore silk trimmed with insertion and medallions, and brown velvet belt. The latter wore a cream taffeta skirt and Japanese silk blouse, with lace and frills as trimming, and black velvet streamers. They carried bouquets of pink and white roses and asparagus fern. The brides going away dress was a French grey cashmere, prettily made with yoke of white lace, and net frill edged with insertion, bodice finished with black ribbon velvet streamers; black picture hat. The bride was the recipient of many valuable and useful presents, including number of cheques. After the wedding breakfast, at which the usual toasts were proposed and honoured, the newly - married pair left for Horsham, en route for Adelaide, where the honeymoon is to be spent. Mr. and Mrs. Walter have been asked by their friends to spend a couple of days at Noradjuha on their return, after which they will proceed to their future home at Heathfield in the Casterton district.
