Short - Carruthers	A Joyous Wedding The Marriage of Major Short and Miss Carruthers - A Popular Event. At half past eleven o’clock this morning the Rev. M. W. Maclean, of Belleville, cousin of the bride, united in marriage Major Charles J. Short, of “B” Battery, R. C. A., and Miss Carruthers, eldest daughter of John Carruthers Esq., of this city. The ceremony was performed at “Annandale,” the beautiful residence of the bride’s father, and was of a very quiet nature, the only guests being immediate relatives of the bride and the groom’s brothers-in-arms. The Major wore his full dress uniform, and was attended by Captain Sheppard, A. D. C. to Lieutenant-Governor Robitaille, Quebec, also in uniform. The bridesmaids were Miss Maud Carruthers, sister of the bride, and Miss Gunn, her cousin. THE LADIES DRESSES The bride was dressed in white satin brimmed with Valencia lace and orange blossoms: ornaments, diamonds. Miss Maud Carruthers - White lace over pink satin; diamond ornaments and pink rosebuds. Miss Gunn - White China crape and lace; pink rosebuds. Mrs. Carruthers, mother of the bride - Garnet velvet, white lace, and diamonds. Mrs. J. Bell Carruthers - White satin, pearl trimmings, diamond ornaments. Mrs. A.

The band of “B” Battery was stationed on the lawn, and immediately after the ceremony performed Mendellsohn’s Wedding March. The guest invited from the city were: Mr. and Mrs. Gunn, and Masters Gunn, Mr. and the Misses Matthews, Mr., Mrs. and the Masters Craig, Mr and Mrs G. Davidson, the Rev. M.

Fages, and Messrs Nelles, Hesketh, Benson and Thompson. The bride received a large number of very beautiful and costly presents, tokens of the high esteem in which the happy couple are held by all their friends. Nature also was propitious and donned her most attractive attire for the occasion, the sun shining brightly and filling all the land with joy and gladness, an indication, we trust, of a happy and joyous journey through life. In the afternoon the party repaired to the Cape boat, accompanied by their friends, who remained with them on the Pierrepont until it was time for her to start. The soldiers left the barrocks with ropes for the purpose of pulling the carriage with the newly-wedded couple to the wharf, but were too late, the latter having driven down before they arrived. They then went in double time to the wharf and boarding the steamer several got the Major on their shoulders and carried him around the dock, followed by the remainder of the men cheering all the while. After landing him again a general hand shaking was indulged in and all sorts of congratulations were extended towards him. After the friends and relatives again bade good-bye, the steamer, with her flags flying, sailed out from the dock. The officers and men of “B” Battalion were again heard from with three cheers for Major and Mrs. Short, and “For he’s a jolly good fellow.” An old long-legged boot and a slipper were thrown after the party on the steamer. At seven o’clock last evening, Major Short was the recipient of two very handsome presents from the Garrison and Mounted divisions of “B” Battery. The former was a magnificent gold-lined water pitcher of chased silver, with goblets and ice bowl complete, and bore the inscription: “Presented to Major Short by the non-commissioned officers and men of “B” Battery, R. C. A., on the eve of his wedding, with their best wishes.” The latter was also a handsome silver water pitcher and goblet, bearing the inscription: ”Presented to Major C. J. Short by the non-commissioned officers and men of the Mounted division of “B” Battery, R.C.A. The presentation was made by Staff-Sergt. Lyndon and Kerley, and was accompanied by an address, which was read by Sergt. Major Lavie. The Major was very much affected by the kindness of the men, and returned them his sincere thanks. He appreciated the gifts very highly. Shortly afterwards, the Major was entertained at dinner by the members and honorary members of the mess, when his health was heartily toasted, and eulogistic speeches were made by Surgeon-Major Neilson and the Hon. M. Kirkpatrick After dinner the Major was greatly surprised at receiving a congratulatory address from his charger, “King Tom.” It was in French, nicely printed in gold on a heavy gilt edged arc, and was adored at its head with two beautiful silver moths. Shortly after midnight, a band consisting of horns, bugles and drums, serenaded Miss Carruthers, and made night hideous with their terrific din. The music of the big drum was particularly remarkable for its very independent and irregular time, and invited anything but sweet repose. Major Short’s brother officers gave him a handsome hammered silver smoking tray and a beautiful antique salad bowl, inlaid with silver. The present was a valuable one and was purchased in new York.

The ushers were Dr. Garnett Greer, of Peterboro’, Mr. Hubert Ryan, Kingston, Mr. Henry Lovell, Toronto, and Mr. Edward Wood, Kingston. Each was given a fraternity pin by the groom.
