The marriage of Miss Mary Hill, 21 years old, of Sprague avenue, Bellevue, a teacher in the Bellevue public schools. to Captain Roy Hartley Henderson of Toronto, Can., serving in the English army, was solemnized in Toronto last Tuesday, Miss Hill's friends were told yesterday.
The wedding was the culmination of a love affair which started three years ago while Miss Hill was spending a vacation in Canada, where she met Henderson. then attending a university. After Miss Hill's return home the two corresponded. Last Christmas Henderson came to Bellevue, and, according to Miss Hill's intimates, asked her to become his wife. The answer, according to reports, was a negative one.
Returning to Toronto, Henderson joined the Canadian expeditionary force and soon attained the rank of captain.
Last week Miss Hill received a letter from Captain Henderson, explaining that he had joined the English army and again asking her to be his wife. She left for Toronto last Monday, telling no one of her plans. Thursday afternoon her soldier husband departed for France. Mrs. Henderson returned to Bellevue. She is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Hill.
