Marriages (August 29)

Nineveh [Broome Co., NY]:  The tenth anniversary of the wedding of the Rev. Wm. H. Sawtelle and wife was celebrated at the Parsonage on the evening of the 11th inst., in the form of a surprise and tin wedding, by the members of the Presbyterian church and society.  They first met at the residence of Mr. Franklin Edgerton then moved in procession to the Parsonage with their tin supplies and made a grand rush into the abode of the quiet home of the Dominie, where the evening was spent in a very sociable and agreeable manner by all, old and young.  In the course of the evening the tin ware, with other valuable presents were arranged and an appropriate and well-timed speech was made by Mr. G. Root, to which the groom of ten years made a pleasant and fitting reply.  With the tin ware and other presents, which were all useful and valuable, was a well filled purse of greenbacks.  Aside from the members of the Society were Mr. E.C. Smith, wife and family, Mrs. E.A. Smith, Mr. Corry Beadsley and wife, Mr G.W. Edgerton, wife and family, Mr. A. Manderville and wife all from South Coventry; W.E. Newton and wife from Coventryville, and Mr. A.B. Smith and wife from Greene.  As the hour of departure drew near all were invited to the lower room of the Parsonage and united in prayer with Mr. G.W. Edgerton, after which the company were entertained with singing and music from the piano.  On the whole it was a very pleasant and satisfactory surprise and no doubt will result in cementing the bond of union between pastor and people.  [Bainbridge Republican, Dec. 16, 1876]
