Silver WeddingMr. John Dennison Marion and lady celebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary of their marriage, on Saturday last December 30th, at their residence in Preston [Chenango Co. NY].  The affair was in every way a perfect success.  A party of relatives and friends, numbering over sixty, assembled at an early hour in honor of the occasion. At the proper time, supper was announced, to attempt a description of which would be useless.  Suffice it to say that "Den," who is notorious as a generous provider, out did himself.  Supper over, the presents, of which there were a goodly number, beautiful and valuable, were presented to Mr. and Mrs. Marion, by Dr. Dwight, of Preston, who, on behalf of the friends, made a few eloquent and appropriate remarks.  Mr. Marion's reply was short and to the point, but the voice of a true heart could be heard in every word.  Letters of congratulation and of regrets for absence were read, and as the approaching Sabbath warned us to rest, we wended our way homeward, after bidding the "Bride and Groom" a cheerful good night.  May the Supreme Ruler, in his providence, permit them to live in health and happiness to celebrate their "Golden Wedding."

Sherburne News, Sherburne, NY, January 4, 1872

Death

Two weeks ago, we announced the death of our former fellow townsmen, Hon. Clark Burnham, and now it becomes our painful duty to record the death of his widow, Mrs. Fanny Burnham, who died in Utica [Oneida Co. NY], on Wednesday morning Jan. 3d, aged sixty-three years.  The deceased was a sister of Dea. William Avery, who will be remembered as a former resident of our town.  She was highly esteemed by all who knew her for her good sense and her many Christian and social virtues.  Her death following so closely upon that of her husband is a sad affliction to the surviving children and elicits the warm sympathy of the many friends of this family.
