      Miss Cole left Liverpool for Cape Town on December 22nd travelling on the Runic which was expected to reach its destination 10th January 1924 and arrangements were made for an immediate wedding. However as the Runic was a day late leaving England the time of her arrival at the Cape was somewhat uncertain. After the wedding the couple intended to spend a week in Cape Town on honeymoon and then to commence their 1,300 mile journey to Bulawayo in time for the new term which opened in February.

      Miss Day was the daughter of Mr and Mrs F Day of Pontycymmer.
