Marriages (July 4)

Arnold - Gibbs
Chenango Semi-Weekly Telegraph, October 12, 1887
Last Wednesday evening, Oct. 5th, about sixty invited guests assembled at the residence of Mr. Fred Gibbs, of Guilford [Chenango Co., NY], to witness the marriage of Mr. Delos R. Arnold and Miss Frances J. Gibbs.  At 8 o'clock the house was well filled.  Oxford and Norwich joined Guilford in the happy event.  Every room in the house was tastefully and beautifully decorated with evergreens and flowers. The wedding march was played by Miss Susie Walworth of Norwich as the bride and bridegroom marched toward and arch of evergreen, in the midst of which was a large and beautiful wedding bell, where the marriage ceremony as performed by Rev. J.L. Jones, and the two were made one.  After the usual congratulations the tables were spread and loaded with all manner of good things, in the best style, which fully satisfied the taste and appetite of the hungry, and happy crowd. The presents were many and very valuable, and they were all useful. Among them was presented by the bride's Sunday School class of seven young ladies, Thackery's complete works in ten volumes. The rest of the evening was spent most happily in social chat and song, and at a late hour the bride and bridegroom departed under a shower of rice and good wishes and took the train at Norwich for New York, on their wedding trip.  May great prosperity and constant joy attend them ever more.
