           The marriage of Miss Myrtle Roblin, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D.W. Roblin, of Carman, Man., to Philip Hammond took place quietly on Saturday, May 6, at the residence of the bride's parents. The ceremony was performed at high noon by the Rev. Mr. Wilson, of the Methodist Church, in the presence of the immediate friends and relatives of the bride and bridegroom. Promptly to the music of Mendelssohn's Wedding March, played by Miss. Grace Hammond, sister of the bridegroom, the bride entered, accompanied by her father. She wore a three-piece costume of French-blue faille, the coat opening over a bodice of maize georgette crepe, with touches of black and gold. Her bouquet was of bridal roses and lilies of the valley. Her only attendant was Miss. Beatrice Campbell wearing a dainty gown of white embroidered voile, which was brightened by her cluster of pink roses. The bridegroom was assisted by Mr. B. Trotter, of this city. The bridegroom's gift to the bride was a pendant of pink cameos and pearls, a cameo ring to the bridesmaid, and gold cufflinks to the best man. After luncheon was served, Mr. And Mrs. Hammond, amid showers of confetti and good wishes, left for Winnipeg, where they will reside. [2]
