Beadley, which is located one-fourth of a mile from the corners on the road to Guilford. After the arrival of the several guests,a bout the hour of eight, an ominous hush prevailed and Miss Clara, the only daughter of the hostess, now the center of attraction, gracefully entered the parlor and leaning on the arm of Mr. Lewis Woodruff, who gave her away to Riel, the oldest son of James L. Stead of this place. The marriage service was performed by the Rev. Mr. Wilson of Guilford. The congratulations which followed were hearty and multiplied; then came a feast abundant and delicious which would have done credit to a princess. The next morning the happy couple started on their bridal tour to visit friends of the bridegroom near Utica. We wish them a happy life, and may their gray hairs be crowned [with many happy years].

On Thursday, Jan. 31, occurred a pleasing event at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John C. Toby, it being the eleventh anniversary of their marriage. Mr. and Mrs. Foster Watkins of Guilford arrived the evening before, so that the groom, who was to be surprised the following day, might be at home. The day was perfect. The bright sun glinting, sleigh bells jingling, noses tingling. At 11 a.m. horses came prancing to the door bringing Yalevillettes. But where is John? "Down town with Foster," says his wife who was in on the secret. Soon back he came, and lo! the yard is half filled with cutters and the veranda full of people calling "Hello John! We thought we would make you a visit." In due time the tables were steaming with oyster soup and laden with many good things, to which, after songs and chatting, about forty-five visitors did ample justice. Soon good byes were said and all departed wishing the bride and groom and all present might enjoy many such bright happy days.
About fifty guests assembled at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Uriah Foote Wednesday evening, September 30th, '91, to witness the marriage of their daughter, Minnie J. to Charles G.
