FAMOUS FAMILIES. I # FASHIBHABlE VfEDDlHG AT ST. I MAKABT S CHBSL Two well known families wile united by the marriage which took place at St. Margaret's Church, Westminster, on Thursday, of Lieutenant Robert B. I/lliot, of the 3rd Argyll and Sutherland High- landers, son of Mr. T. R. B. Elliot, of Clifton Paxfe, Kelso. Roxburghshire, in the South of Scotland, with Miss Eleanor Mary Williams-Drum mend, the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. Dudley Wiliiams-Drhmmond, of flafodneddyn, Carmarthenshire. The bridegroom, whD is a cousin of Lord Joicey, and whose mother was the daughter of the late Colonel John Joicey. M.P. for North-West Durham, belongs to an eminent Scottish family, especially well known among agricultural students r throughout the Kingdom as having been I for generations in the forefront of agri- cultural development and science, and as having farmed on a large scale in their beautiful home of Clifton Park in the Cheviot Hills. The grandfather of the bridegroom was the originator of the well known Clifton Park experiments in grass growing, which, since the year lR56 have continually been developed on the home farm of Clifton-on-Boijrnont, extending to I some 1,250 acres, and have been the sub- ject of a leetwe before the agricultural department of the University College, Aberystwyth. The hride. a scion of one of the most ^distinguished county families in the Principality, is well known and liighly popular in West Wales, in the public life of which the Willia.ms-Drummond family have always ta.ken a foremost and active interest. Like many other popular marriages in thiv. time of iiatio'-n;,Il crisis, the wedding w*, a very quiet one owing to the war, where more than one relative of the bride hove already fallen in the service of their King and country. Nevertheless, there was a large and distinguished gathering present at the church to witness the in- Veresting ceremony. The bride was given '■•■away by her father, and was attended as "bridesmaids by her sister. Miss Katherine Williams-Drummond, and by the Misses Maud and Frances Elliot, fliRters of the bridegroom. As best man. the bridegroom had Capt. Colquhoun. of Colqiihoun, his brother I officer in the 3rd Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders. The officiating clergy were the liev. Canon Cadnegy. Dean of West- ninsfer. and the Rev. the Hon. Nigel j Dampbell, Canon of Westminster. A reception was held after the cere- lIony. at which the immediate friends Lnd immediate relatives attended. The toiy»,vmoon is being spent in Oxfordshire. and the bridal couple will later come to Walec. There was a galaxy of costly presents, among tho public presentations being those from the Golden Grove, Edwinsford, and Llethrcadfan tenantry, friends at LJangathen and at Ferryside. and the household staff at Hafodneddyu.

THE BOUNDARIES OF THE BOnOiiGH.…
THE BOUNDARIES OF THE BOnOiiGH. s 1 RURAL COUNCIL'S I PROTEST. IETTER T9 THE SWARSEA CORPORATION THE COST QUESTION. The following are copies of letters which have passed between the Clerk to the Swansea Rural District Council and the Clerk to the Swansea Corpora- tion, with reference to the extension of the borough boundaries:— [Copy.] Swansea Rural District Council. Alexandra-iDad, Swansea, October 23rd, 1914. Dear Sir,At a meeting of the General Purpose; Committee of the above Council, held on Wednesday, at which, a majority of Hw m(nheJ's of the Council were pre- ?cnt, tha proposal application of the Swansea, Corporation for extension of the Borough Boundaries was considered. After t-areftil consideration, the opinion was unanimously expressed that the Council would have no alternative than to oppose to the utmost of its power the application, which, if granted, would inter alii) not only dismember the Rural District, but hamper and impede the work of the Rural Disfrie* Council, wliioli they venture to think has been satisfac- torily performed from every point of view, and impose serious financial loss and obligation on such parts of the Rural Dis- trict as would not be included. The members, however, conscientiousl y believe it would be a grievous mistake and a great pilar if the application is launched. | and cost r ncl pneriçe. which will easily run irio many thousands ox bounds, in- ii 1 cursed (\U(;i!. -dAg W-U&t Y4VPA the opposition during the present grave National crisis, when all the authorities interested in, or affected hy the applica- tion have other, more serious, and nobler work which require their attention, and j so many calls are being, and will inevit-j ably be made upon them, upon the rate- payers, and upon the public generally. I The members are all of the opinion that now is the very time for retrenchment in j every direction possible, lather than for i payment of la?e sums to Counsel and tit"l many expert and othpr w?tn?s?s v.'ho?e services will he called in all round, and I, that the money whieh would be thrown away, if not wasted in this way, could i he very much better spent in finding I employment for the many workmen who are now, and the many more who are I likely to be out of employment by reason of the war and the consequent dislocation i of trade in all directions. ¡ It may be contended that the cost Willi not be 'o great because the application is one to the Local Government Board for a Provifional Order, but you a"e well j awar 'that even if the application werR! granted eithN in its entirety or in part bv the Board (which is not anticipated), the opposition could, and probably will, still be continued in Parliament, so that: ultimately the cost will be greater than it the application were made straightway; to Parliament by Bill. Such appears-to; have been the rule in all recent applica-1 tions where the opposition has been carried not only into the Parliamentary Committee Rooms, but into Parliament itself, and this with. success ultimately to i the opposition. Though the prospect of increasing the rapidly growing burden of rates in this I way did not appeal to the members, yet as they are convinced that the applica- tion when made must be in the public interest and in the interest of the dis- trict they represent be opposed on the merits, they instructed me to suggest, without prejudice to the position of our respective Councils, and without further expression of opinion' on the merits of the application, that as in the case of the' proposed Cardiff application, a truce j should be called, if not until the War is concluded, in any until the posi- tion and obligations of tiio country, and more particularly of the ratepayers in this neighbourhood, have improved, or, to some extent, been restored to their nor- mal condition. I hope you will appreciate the fact that I am writing this letter on instructions, and sha)I he pleased. therefore, it you will III it b(,f" .your (?nincll?r MtM,. if-- lel, ?9  m it. thelUselves to an application at the present juiictur.e-Yours faithfully, (Signed) Edward Harris, H.

Edward IIarri, Esq., I Clerk to the Swansea Rural District. Council, Alexandra-road, Swansea. [Copy.] Town Clerk's Office, The Guildhall, Swansea. 30th October, UH4. Swansea Extension, 191.5. Dear Sir,—With furthar reference to your letter of the 23rd instant, I have to say that I submitted the same to the Swansea Town Council yesterday. They saw no reason to depart from their decision which had been already arrived at to proceed with the above seheme, i more especially as the bulk of the pre- liminary work in connection with it has been got through and the preliminary expense (mffst of v-hich vrà!i! be wasted if the scheme were not now to nroceed) incurred. I may also say that they, are proceeding with a drainage scheme which is so urgently needed.—Yours faithfully, H. Lang Coath, Town Clerk. Edward Harris, Clerk to the Swansea Rural District Council, Alexandra-road, Swansea. Sketty Rates. 1 (To the Editor.)
