Marriages (March 23)

Curley - Gayney

Chenango Union, August 8, 1907

Cornelius P. Curley and Miss Elizabeth T. Gayney were married at St. Paul's church [Norwich, Chenango Co., NY] Tuesday morning, Rev. John Hart officiating.  Friday evening, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Kearney, a linen shower was given in honor of Miss Gayney, about 25 friends being present.  At the wedding ceremony the bride and groom were accompanied by Edward Curley and Miss Julia Ellis.

 

Aldrich - Wilcox

Chenango Union, August 8, 1907

Mason Aldrich, employed by W.H. Dunne & Co., and Miss Helen Wilcox, cashier at the Chapman & Turner company, were married at the home of the bride's mother, Mrs. Henry Wilcox, Auburn street, Tuesday morning, Rev. J.L Ray officiating.  Only the immediate relatives of the bride and groom were present.  The wedding couple took the 9:47 Lackawanna train for a bridal trip and worried their friends about it a good deal.  The wedding guests and some friends of the bride and groom who were not wedding guests didn't propose to let the couple get out of town without proper (or improper) attention.  Passengers on the Ontario & Western 9:30 train were threatened with an avalanche of rice if they did not disclose the presence of the wedding party, which was supposed to be in hiding somewhere about the premises. Anyhow the carriage carrying the bride and groom had been seen to drive to the station.  There were no traces, however, and the rice bearers started uptown disconsolate.  Just as they crossed Silver street the Lackawanna train pulled in a few minutes late and a closed carriage hustled out of the driveway leading to the Scott mill, the horses making it on the run for the Lackawanna station. The rice bearers started on the run too and reached the train in time to perform their duty "Good and proper."
