        GILLIES-PREECE.

        The marriage took place at St. Paul's Church, Porth, on Thursday of Dr. Dugald Gillies, Caerau, Bridgend (son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Gillies, Toyvallich, Argyllshire), and Miss Hilda Mary Preece, youngest daughter of Mr. John Preece, ironmonger, Porth, and the late Mrs. Preece. The bride, who was given away by her father, was frocked in ivory georgette trimmed with silver, wore a veil of embroidered net with a wreath of orange blossoms, and carried a shower bouquet of pink carnations, lilies, and white heather. She was attended by the Misses Georgie and Netta Gillies, sisters of the bridegroom (in frocks of powder-blue crep de chine), and Miss Mary Summers and Miss Joyce Parsons (in pale pink crepe de chine and wearing silver hair wreaths). Each carried bouquets of pink carnations. Dr. J. C. McMillan, Bo'ness, was the best man, and the Vicar of St. Paul's (the Rev. A. J. Millard) conducted the ceremony.

        After a reception at the Church-hall Mr. and Mrs. Gillies left for Scotland for the honeymoon.
