Wollaston Lee was among them.

To Maria's utter astonishment, he did not seem to realize his trying position as a rejected suitor.

He was attired in a new suit, and wore a white rosebud in his coat, and Maria glanced at him with mingled admiration and disdain.
Maria sat directly in front of the pulpit, with Mrs.Jonas White and Lillian.

Mrs.White had a new gown of some thin black stuff, profusely ornamented with jet, and Lillian had a new pink silk gown, and wore a great bunch of roses.

The situation, with regard to Maria, in connection with the wedding ceremony and the bridal trip, had been a very perplexing one.
