  Wed. Feb. 25, 1925 -- WEDDING BELLS - St. John's Newspaper. BATTCOCK - BROWNE The Oratory of the Presentation Convent, Cathedral Square, was the scene of a very pretty wedding on Sunday evening, Feb. 22nd, when Miss Anna M. BROWNE, daughter of Mr. Patrick BROWNE, H. M. Customs, was united in matrimony to Mr. Peter L. BATTCOCK, of the Nfld. Government Railway Machine shops. The ceremony was performed by right Rev. Monsignor McDERMOTT, V.G. The bride entered the church leaning on the arm of her father, whilst sister Mary Josephine played the Wedding March. She was prettily attired in brown silk crepe-de-chene, with black picture hat, and carried a bouquet of carnations and tulips; and was attended by Miss BATTCOCK, sister of the groom. Mr. Peter BROWNE, brother of the bride, acted as best man. After the ceremony the wedding party proceeded to the home of the bride's parents, Gower Street when supper was partaken of and the usual toasts honoured. Many and costly were the presents received, showing the esteem in which they are held by their many friends, who join in wishing them many years of wedded bliss.
