    The Wedding 10 July 1912

    The Methodist Church at Chewton was the scene of a very pretty wedding on the 10th inst. The contracting parties were Miss Ada Ebbott third daughter of Mr John Ebbott, Mining Manager of Chewton and the Rev Walter Thomas Johns son of Mr and Mrs Johns of Chewton. The church was beautifully decorated by the many friends of the coupe and the ceremony was performed by the Rev Joseph Nicholson. The bride was given away by her father and the bridesmaids were Miss Beatrice Ebbott, sister of the bride and Miss Ella Kidd of Bendigo. Mr William Smith was the best man and Mr Stanley Ebbott, groomsman. The bridegroom's gift to the bride was a watch and chain, the bride's gift to the bridegroom a travelling case, and the bridegrooms to the bridesmaids, gold brooches.

    After the ceremony, a reception was held in the school hall, about 70 guests were present. A number of congratulatory messages were read and the usual toasts were honoured. After the breakfast Mr and Mrs Johns drove to Castlemaine Railway Station and travelled by Express to Bendigo on their way to Cohuna, where Mr Johns is present stationed, carrying with them the good wishes of their many friends.

    In the evening there was a particularly happy gathering of about 90 guests in the School Hall in honour of the occasion. The Mayor (Cr W Ebbott) presided. A good programme of music and suitable amusements was provided and a very enjoyable evening was spent.

    Among the many handsome and useful presents including several cheques was one from the members of the church choir of which Mrs Johns was a member and another from about thirty of young ladies and gentleman of the church which was presented to Miss Ebbott on the 2nd at a very pleasant social evening.
