A FAMILY ENGAGEMENT
The most interesting engagement «*f the week, says a London correspondent, that of Mr. Brinsley Sheridan Plunket with Miss Aileen Guinness, is likely to lead to an early autumn wedding. It should be a notable ceremony. for the prospective bride and bridegroom are connected with many well-known people, and Miss Guinness will be able to choose a most attractive group of bridesmaids from her own and her groom’s relations, which may be the relations of both, since in | the Flunket-Guinness engagement, a ! point which seems to have been over- | looked is that the prospective bride and bridegroom are second cousins in this -way: Mr. Brinsley Flunket’s grandmother. Lady Plunket. wife ot' Lord Plunket, who was Archbishop of Dublin, was the only daughter of Sir Benjamin Guinness, head of the famous brewery, and a great-aunt of Miss Aileen Guinness. Miss Guinness is a grand-daughter of Lord Tveagh. Mr Plunket is just 24. and Miss Guinness is a year younger.
