Interest
A WEDDING of particular interest A to old Territorians took place on November 10 in Sydney when Mi’. “Ted” Taylor and Mrs. Marion Nelson were married at St. Canice’s Church, King’s Cross (Sydney), at a somewhat unique ceremony in that the bride’s four children and a couple of grand-children were in attendance and her eldest daughter, Miss Elrae Nelson, was a brides maid. , , Mr. Tom Prince, also an old Tern torian, supported the groom as best-man and after the formalities an Islands get-together was staged at the home of Mrs. Hector Wales, at Rose Bay. .
Ted Taylor has been associated with TNG ever since 1914. After spending a few months in Nauru with the Occupation Force, when that phosphate island was taken over from the Germans, he took up duties in New Guinea and soon made himself a valued officer in the Department of Native Affairs.
For some time he was Director of District Services and will always be remembered for his work in that
department.—GOßDON T.
