The Ive's Settlement correspondent will excuse me for not answering his question in my last.  I did have reference to Miss Mary Foote, and the lucky suitor is William Pearce of Rogers Hollow.  May she spend the rest of her days in peace and happiness.  [Bainbridge Republican, June 7, 1877]
 
 
Bowers - Austin
A very pretty home wedding occurred at the residence of John Austin, in Guilford Center [Chenango Co., NY^], Wednesday of last week, when his daughter, Florence Annie Emma, was united in marriage to Charles Amos Bowers, of North Norwich [Chenango Co., NY].  The rooms were tastefully decorated with evergreens and potted plants, the color scheme being blue and white.  At precisely noon the bride and groom entered the wedding room to the strains of Lohengrin's bridal march played by Miss Mary Walker, of Oxford.  The ceremony was performed in a very impressive manner by Rev. A.C. Salls, of Guilford Center.  The bride was handsomely gowned in blue foulard trimmed with white chiffon and applique and carried a shower bouquet of bridal roses.  The wedding dinner was served under the direction of C. Toby, the caterer, and the whole event was one of the most joyous that has taken place in this locality in a long time.  The bride is a graduate of Norwich High School and for some time has been a teacher in the Guilford Center schools.  After a brief wedding trip Mr. and Mrs. Bowers will make their home with the bride's father at Guilford Center, where the groom is extensively engaged in the lumber business.  [About 1905]
