CINDBEGIF P FLOWN OFF FIELL COUPLEDISAPPEAR (Continued from First Page) Asked on whose orders they were acting, they would omly reply “the bos.” The man superintending the mechanics’ work declined to say anything sbeut the plane. Destination Secret New York, May 28 UPM—The ho oyméon destination of Colenel Charlés A. Lindbergh and his bride, the former Anne Morrow, like so many of the Lone Eagle's flights was enveloped in complete secrecy to- day. - After the couple left the Morrow 'home at Englewood, N. J., yesterday following their marri they drop- ped completely from sight. Newse paper vigils at flying fields, steam- ship piers, railroad terminals and even highways leading out of Naw York, yielded no trace of the new- lyweds. There were scores of rumors and theories, but none of them was con- firmed. One report was that an amphibian plane had landed last night in Hempstead harbor outside the Long Island estate of Harry Guggenheim, intimate friend of the filer, and that the honeymooners had sailed on 8. R. Guggenheim's yacht Trillora. The yacht was the harbor last night but was gone this morning, Believe Plane Blind The preparation for flight of Colonel Lindbergh’s speedy biplanc at Roosevelt Field was believed to be a blind to throw newapaper chas- ers off the acent. In this connection it was also pointed out that an aer- ial honeymoon by the couple wouid be anything but private, with pet. haps every airport in the country besieged by reporters and photo- graphers. The belief that Colonel and Mrs. Lindbergh might sail on some ocean liner under assumed names received some support. Meanwhile, anxions city editors of newspapers kept their staffs keyed up waiting for the break” when the nd,” be that earth, sky or sea, Englewood, N. J., May 28 (®-- Taking a ing world completely by surpri Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh and his bride, the fol mer Anne Morrow, were away on a secret honeymooh trip today. The marriage took place without Pprevious announcement at ¢ p. m. yesterday in the drawing room of the home of the bride’s father, Am- bassador Dwight W. Morrow. an hour later the couple drove away from the: estate unaccompa- nied, apparently bound for Now York. Rev Dr. William Adams Brown, professor of systematic theology at Union Theological seminary, per- formed the ceremony in which a simplified form of the marriage service, with the word “obey” omit. ted, was used. He is a Presbyterian as are members of the Morrow fam- ily. Mr.: Morrow is .a member of the seminary boa®d and Re and Dr. Brown are old friends. Only Relatives Present The ambassador and Mrs. Morrow, the bride’s two sisters, Elisabeth and. “landing” from Constance, General and Mra, Jay || Johnson Merrow, brother and s ter-in-law of the ambassador, Miss Alice Morrow, his sister, and Mrs. Evangeline Lindbergh, mother of Holiday Fixings For The honeymooners | M the greom, made up the wedding So quickly and quietly was the wedding held that it was 6:30 p. m. befere the public knew that th marriage, on which its attention had been centered since announcement of the engagement February 13 last had taken place. ‘The only explanation for the un- ‘| expectedness of the event was fur- nished by Mrs. Edwin L. Mcllvaine of Meadville, Pa., aister of Ambasss. dor Morrew. A telegram from her brother said: “Anne and Charles married very quietly this afternoon. Betty and 1 regret your absence, but there seemed no other way after the sud. n decision last night.” Mra. Mcllvaine said she was in- formed by telephone that the wed- ding was advanced at the request of Miss Morrow because she was annoyed by the publicity and the insistence of reporters and curiosity seekers for information. Wears Chifion Dress The welding was utterly infor. mal. The bride wore a simple white chiffon dress, made by Miss Mary Smith, an Englewood dres- maker, who has sewed for the Morrow family for years. The bride had.a short’ veil and in her un. sloved hands she carried a bouquet of blue larkspur which had been picked in the gardens of the Mor. row estate by her flance a few mo- ments before the ceremony. Colonel Lindbergh’ wore a blue business suit -of the sort that has been his favorite garb in flights about the country. Each witness of ceremony was given a piece of the wedding cake. Dr. Brown, describing the wed. ding, sald: “There were no special decora. tions. The very simplest wedding ceremony was used at the request of ti family. It was a very un- usual and very brief ritual, design- ed to use & minimum of words and time, . No Attendants Used “There was no best man and there were no bridal attendants Ambamsador Morrow gave his daughter away. The bride was very charming and very lovely. “Miss Morrow was quite composed during the entire ceremony. Colonel Lindbergh was entirely at ease. He 't any nerves. 'He was so far from being a nerv. BRING YOUR ous bridegreom that there was no fumbling ‘of the ring and I dida't oven see it." Dr. Brown explained that he omits the word “obey’ from the marriage service unless requested to use it. He said the other omissions were at the suggestion of Colenel Lindbergh. Postlbjlity that the couple were planning a flying honeymoon was seen {n orders received at Roosevelt field from Colonel Lindbergh that his Blue Falcon plane be conditioned and ready for flight. At the field the oply information obtainable was that a faulty ofl line had been repaired and the plane found in perfect condition after l test flight. Not Expected in Maine Dispatchies from North Haven, Me., where the Morrows have a sum- mer home, quoted Mrs. Hubert O. Grant, wife of the caretaker, as say- ing that there had been no instruc- tions to prepare for the arrival of Colonel Lindbergh . %nd his bride and that the house was being reno- vated and painted. After the wedding it was learned that the marriage license was ob- tained by Colenel Lindbergh five days ago, May 22."the s¢cond anni- versary of his historic landing at Le Bourget field, Paria, John A. Hanson, registrar of the Englewood board of health, who issued the li- cense, was pledged to secrecy. Official announcement of the wed. ding was made by A. H. Springer, Ambassador Morrow's secretary. It read: “Mr. and Mrs. Dwight W. Morrow announce the marri of their daughter, Anne, to Charles A. Lind- ber| t Englewood, N. J. 21, 1929." The announcement was tele. phoned to the press at 6:25 p. m. Neither Mr. Springer nor the am- bassador, who departed after the marriage for . Washington, would amplity the formal statement. Colonel Lindbergh is 27 years old and his bride is 22. Their romance began when Lindbergh was recelved at the American embassy in Mexico City on his good will tour December 14, 1927. At that time Miss Morrow was a senior at 8mith college. where she had made something of & name for herself as a poet with contribu- tions to college publications.

Colonel Lindbergh and Miss Anne, however, were seen in each other’s company with increasing frequency until all doubt was set at rest last February 12 when Ambassador Mor- row anounced their engagement in Mexico City. At that time Colonel Lindbergh was in Cuba on a good- will tour. Two weeks after the announce- ment he was in Mexico City again. While en this visit to his flancee he began teaching her to fly. On Feb- ruary 27 the couple figured in an accident. One of the landing wheels of the plane fell off which forced the colonel to make a landing on one wheel. The plane tipped over on its nose and while Miss Morrow escaped with a shaking up, his shoulder was | dislocated.
