Newspaper cutting relating to Earl of Charleville's majority and wedding of his sister Lady Katherine Bury to Capt. Hutton

Newspaper cutting from the King’s County Chronicle, reporting on the banquet held in honour of the young Earl’s majority, for which he was astounded, “as all really good people are”. It was observed that down through the ages, the Bury family was praised for acting “paternally towards its tenantry and retainers with an undeviating eye to the solid advantage of the community”, and it was remarked that “Colonel and Mrs. Bury knew everybody”.
The cutting also concerns the marriage of Lady Katherine Beaujolois Arabella, eldest daughter of the late Earl of Charleville with Captain Edmund Bacon Hutton, the Royal Dragoons, Aide-de-Camp to His Excellency Earl Spencer, Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, youngest son of William Hutton, Esquire, of Gate Burton, Lincolnshire. The marriage took place at St. Catherine’s Church, Tullamore and was performed by the Reverend Graham Craig, rector.
The bride who was “magnificently dressed and attended by six fair bridesmaids, dressed in white, with pink trimmings”, was given away by her uncle, Colonel Bury. Following the wedding ceremony, the wedding gifts were displayed. The “costly presents” included a gift from the tenants of a tea kettle, a claret jug and a bracelet, while “not the least interesting article on the table was a tea caddy presented to her ladyship by the servants [which was] beautifully wrought in heavy silver”.

Bury, Charles William Francis, 4th earl of Charleville
