WAITING AT THE CHURCH
CANCELLED WEDDING. A Liverpool bridegroom who cancelled his wedding just before the ceremony recently returned to his home after a lonely holiday which should have been spent with his bride. The intended bridegroom is Mr William Pearsall, aged 28, and the prospective bride Miss Edna Carroll, aged 23. Arrangements had" been made for the wedding at Christ ■ Church, Great Homer street, the honeymoon had been fixed at a .seaside place; carriages had been ordered, and the bride was dressing for the ceremony, when the dram-' atic news was received. Many fellowworkers assembled outside the church with confetti waiting for the bride who never came. { The bridegroom’s mother states that there had been something said, about her husband and her not being invited to the wedding until all the other guests had been invited, and her son was naturally very sore about it. He told Miss Carroll so. and she made a heated reply. That was the last word said between them, and although she got ready for the wedding, my son did not hear that she was willing to withdraw her remarks, s 9 refused to go on with the ceremony.
