Brilliant Gathering at the Bromwell- Scott Nuptinls—Personal Notes, The marriage last night of Miss Letitia Green Scott, daughter of Mrs. Matthew Thompson Scott, to Lieut. Charles Sum- mers Bromwell, Corps of Engineers, U.S.A., formed one of the most beautiful spec- tacles which has marked the season of nuptial events. The house, which is roomy and most artistic in its permanent decora- tions, was given a charming effect by the lavish use of palms and June blossoms— sweet peas and roses. The hall looked re- freshingly cool, with the masses of green arranged about the fireplace, and in the drawing room asparagus garlands were hung around the walls over the embroider- ed panels. In the bay window a bower was formed of tall, overarching palms, and near this the couple stood to be married, and under it they held their reception. The guests had all assembled in the drawing room around Mrs. Scott and Mrs. Steven- son when the bridal party descended. The ers, Messrs. Sprigg Camden, Mr. Walter cox, Mr. Scott Bullitt of Louisville, and Mr. Carl Vrooman of Baltimore, preceded the bride and her attendants, and, by stretching white ribbons from the bower to the hallway, formed an aisle. Miss Julia Scott, as maid of honor, and Miss Brom- well, as bridesmaid, came first. They wore dainty white muslin dresses, trimmed with lace, and carried bouquets of pink sweet peas. Little Miss Helene Black, gowned in a handsome frock of white brocaded satin, wore a wreath of white blossoms, and as she walked ahead of the bride, strewed her path with sweet pea blossoms. The b was escorted by her uncle, Vice President Stevenson. At the bower the groom and his best man, Mr. Henry A. Bostwick of the ith Regiment, with the officiating clergyman, Radcliffe. The handsome bride looked particularly attractive in her bridal finery. Her gown was of elegant white satin, and the fichu of exquisitely fine lace that formed the yok> and trimmed the shvulders was first worn by her grandmother. A half wreath of orange blossoms held her veil, and her bouquet was of lilies of the valley and white sweet peas. After the ceremony a sumptuous ¢ of seasonable dainties, followed by ices 2 sweets, was enjoyed. The table in the din- ing room was decked with vines and sweet peas. A pyramid of wedding cake boxes was piled in the hall. They were oblong white boxes, bore the double monogram in silver and were tled with white ribbons. An enormous silvef bow] of champagne punch was the center of attraction in the library. The wedding presents arranged in an upstairs room formed another fascinat- ing spot to the guests. There has seldom been seen a more valuable and more beau- tiful collection of gifts. When the couple came yn stairs to start on their wedding journey the bride was arrayed in a stylish costume of dark blue cloth, with a jacket which had revers of fawn-colored silk. After a honeymoon jaunt Lieut. and Mrs. Bromwell will pro- ceed to Yellowstone Park, where the for- mer has been detalled for survey work. Mrs. Scott was handsomely gowned kK silk, trimmed with point lace. Mrs. venson was also in black,with the bodice of chiffon covered with Brussels applique. Mrs. John F. Black wore white satin and point lace. Other guests of the household present were Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Green Stevenson, Miss Winston of Missouri, Katharine Winston, of the Mr. and Mrs. John Y.; Mrs. Royal Hart, Mrs. Douglas Pat. ten, Marietta, Ohio; Mr. Scott Bullitt and Mr. James Bullitt of Louisville, Ky.; Miss Nina Gillette of Illinois, Miss Frances Wendling, Charlestown, W.
