It was rumored early in the week that Frank Alysworth was going west this week, but it was not said that he would be married before going.  That was the case, however.  The happy event occurred at 8 p.m. Tuesday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Peters at Chenango Forks, when Mr. Frank Alysworth and Miss Lizzie K. Mastin were married by the Rev. Mr. Davis.  The wedding was very quiet, only a few friends being present at the ceremony.  Frank came here Wednesday to bid his parents good-bye, leaving here on No. 3, and the young couple left on the Chicago sleeper last night for Nebraska where they will visit with his aunt for a few weeks when they will go to Colorado in a hope that Frank's health will be improved by the change of climate.  The best wishes of their many friends go with them.  The Broome County Herald has this to say of the bride in speaking of the event:  "Miss Mastin is one of Chenango Forks [Broome Co., NY] most estimable young ladies and will carry the best wishes of a host of friends wherever the pathways of life may lead her.  [Notation:  June 2, 1896]
