LONDON, May 22,
At St. George's Chapel, Windsor, during the recital of the committal words, Mr Hall-Jones, New Zealand High Commissioner, who was just behind the Royal personages, fell in a faint.
Those standing near fanned him and he partly recovered. He was carried out during the Benediction. Mr John Burns, President oi the Board of Trade, and two constables promptly assisted Mr Hall-Jones and carried him on a stretcher to a neighbouring house where he re-
covered. A Territorial ambulance later conveyed Mr Hall-Jones to the Military Knight's quarters, where he remained for the rest of the afternoon. King George and Queens Mary and Alexandra enquired as to his condition.
