25.~In the
of the W House
at 4:30 o'clock this afternoon Jessie
Woodrow Wilson, second daughter of
the president, was made the wife of
Franc jowes Sayre. Rev, Sylvester
Beach of Princeton, N. J., performed
the ceremony
7 ire affair was very simple,
as had been requested by the bride,
and the number of guests was rather
small—distressingly so many per-
gons in official and social circles of
Washington who had expected to re
ceive invitations but were disappoint
ed.
Miss Margaret Woodrow Wilson,
eldest of the three daughters, acted
as maid of honor to her sister, and
Miss Eleanor Randolph Wilson, the
youngest, was one of the bridesmaids.
The three other bridesmaids were
Miss Adeline Mitchell Scott of Prince
ton, daughter of Prof. Willlam B
Beott; Miss Marjorie Brown of Atlan
ta, Pa. daughter of Mrs. Wilson's cous-
in, Col. B. T. Brown,
CG. White of Baltimore, a coliege friend
of the bride.
Dr. Grenfell Is Best Man.
Mr. Sayre was attended by his best
man, Dr. Wilfred T. Grenfell, the
mons medical missionary to the fisher.
men of the Labrador coast. The twe
men have long been fast friends and
Mr. Sayre spent two summers help
ing Dr. Grenfell with his work.
The ushers were Charles E. Hughes,
Jr, son of Justice Hughes of the Su-
preme court and a classmate of Mr
Bayre in the Harvard law school: Dr
Gilbert Horax of Montelair, N. J.
was a classmate at
in 1509 and now at Johns Hopkins uni
versity: Benjamin Burton of New
York city, and Dr. Scoville Clark of
Balem, Mass. was Mr. Sayre's
companion in Labrador and Newfound-
land.
Wedding Gown of Ivory Satin.
The bride's gown was of satin, of
& soft ivory tint, trimmed with beau-
tiful lace, both old and rare. It was
made in New York and the women

decorations. The east room, and in-
deed all the rooms In the president's
mansion, were beautiful indeed.
Depart on Their Honeymoon.
After the ceremony was completed
gratulations of the guests, refresh-
ments were served, and then Mr. and
Mrs. Sayre departed for their honey-
moon. Their plans include a visit to
the home of Miss Nevin, Mr. Sayre's
aunt, at Windsor Forges, near Church-
town, Pa., where they first met. After
January 1 they will live in Willlams-
town, Mass., for Mr. Sayre is to sever
his connection with the office of Dis.
trict Attorney Whitman in New York
and become assistant to Harry A. Gar
field, president of Williams college.
Real Test of Sympathy,
Anybody can sympathize with the
sufferings of a friend, but it requires a
very fine nature—it requires, in fact,
the nature of a true individualist-—to
sympathize with a friend's success.

There was one disappointment for
those who attended the wedding, for

Guests Limited to 400.
Those who were invited to witness
the wedding were mostly personal

close to four hundred. The list was

As might be expected, the streets
outside the White House were as
crowded as the police would permit
