         Quiet Marriage
         (Received too late for last week)
         
         At the residence of MR. JOHN DAVEY at 11 a.m.
       Oct. 23d, there were married, by Rev. R. R. Davies,
       pastor of the Congregational church, MR. FLORIEN C.
       FRY of Schenectady, N.Y., to MISS THOMAZINE DAVEY,
       the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. DAVEY of this
       city.
       
         The bridegroom is a draughtsman in the General
       Electric works of Schenectady and is a young man
       of excellent standing in his community, a member
       of the Congregational church in the above city,
       and of bright prospects for a successful career.
       
         The bride is well known in this city as intelli-
       gent, energetic, dignified, well formed and attract-
       ive, of excellent character, a member of the Congre-
       gational church and of its Y.P.S.C.E. Her departure
       is a felt loss to the circles in which she has
       moved.
       
         The bride looked beautiful in her bridal dress of
       white, bearing in her hand a cluster of white roses,
       accompanied by her brother, ERNEST, and sister,
       GEORGIANA, who acted as best man and bridesmaid,
       and these were attended by other members of the
       family and the invited guests.
       
         The officiating clergyman spoke of the marriage
       relation as a mutual bond of love, of respect, of
       confidence and of fidelity, and of duties and actions
       as of equal character. The golden ring given as a
       token and expressive of the marriage covenant, was
       referred to as a fitting symbol of perpetualness
       and purity, and declared them "legally wedded hus-
       band and wife." The knot was well tied. May it never
       be cut by any hand but that of nature, and that many
       years hence when life's work has been well accomp-
       lished.
       
         The young couple start out with happy auguries
       and with the heartiest wishes for their success
       by many friends. The presents given by friends
       here and elsewhere we understand were numerous,
       valuable and useful, which doubtless will remind
       the young people of the place they held in the
       affections and esteem of many. May their skies
       be bright and their way plain and smooth.
