p. 17 · Read in the full issue
A novel and unusual setting was chosen by Miss Betty Bunting, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Bunting, of Samarai, Papua, for her marriage to Mr. Reginald Prevost, of Sydney, on November 20. The ceremony was performed by Rev. V. W.
Thompson, on board the bridegroom’s yacht Tanda, in Sydney Harbour. Con forming to a time-honoured nautical
custom, a floral garland and white satin pennant were flown at the yacht’s mast head.
Mr. L. V. Waterhouse, well-known in New Guinea, gave the bride away, and Mr. Ron Mackellar was best man. After the ceremony the newly married couple entertained over 300 guests, including a number of prominent Islands people, at Kirribilli.
