GEORGE MANUEL, Prop.
(“Princess Pats”) to whom she gave
the colors under which most ot* the re
giment made the supreme sacrifice,
her beauty, her gracious character and
her cleverness have made her a world
wide celebrity.
The* romance began in Canada when
Commander Ramsay was an aide to
the Puke of Connaught, then govern
or-General . When the great war
started. Commander Ramsay promptly
returned to active service in the roy d
navy and won the Distinguished Ser
vice ordei for valorous work at Gal!'
poli.
The princess is domestic and a
very clever needlewoman. making
man) of her own garments. She is
fond of outdoor sports and during h< c
tour of Canada with her father, the
governor general, she rode her spiri
t'd horse over the mountains at Harri
Springs. Alberta: beat her father :\t
golf on the local golf links and gav •
an exhibition of exiiei! swimming i i
the big swimming pool of the hotel.
The spirit of democracy now
conspicuous in Canada must have been
breathed in with the bracing Canad
ian air by the princess, for she re
fused to wed at least two kings an 1
chose instead an untitled but heroic
member of the king’s navy. She has
asked for ami received the consent of
the king for the renunciation of all
ier titles, princess and royal highness,
md she will hereafter be known in
l ady Patricia Ramsay.
LONDON. March 1. (By Mail)
Rarely, if ever, has a more radiantly
oeautiful bride knelt before the broad
'tops leading to the Sacrarium or*

Never, we may venture to say, lus
a prouder or a happier bridegroooi

der Ramsay, R. N*. The personal charm
• •f the couple, their great popularity
and the romantic court-ship were at •
tested by the crowds which lined the
route of the procession.
Thousands and thousands gathered
at the Ahbey. The happiness of the
•ample inflated the guests, and tin*
solemn service was tinged with irre
pressible gladness. Not for bOO years
has a royal bride been wealded in the
Abbey. One imagines the ancient waiU

U>ng before noon the guests began to

adorned in spring styles, fluttered in

It would be difficult indeed to dis

of the nave stood a guard of the Prin

Shortly before P2 o’clock the sud

sation. Entering from the west cloist
••’ door was the bridegroom accomp
anied by the groomsman. They we"»
conducted to a seat below the altar bv
a gentleman usher of his majesty.
\ pry manly he looked as he walked
down the broad aisle with short, firm
steps, his straight carriage betray
ing his acquaintance with the rolling
a warship’s bridge. On reaching his
seat he smildi and murmured a few
words to his companion.
A little later a royal fanfare was
heard without. The guests rose to
cieet their majesties, members of the
royal family, ushered by the deans
and canons. The royal party consisted
of King George, Queen Mar>-. Prince
of Wales, Prince Albert, Princess
Mary, Prince of Wales, Prince Albert.
Princess Mary, attended by lords and
ladies in waiting; Countess Minto,
