Christ Church in Binghamton [Broome Co. NY], was well filled with fashionably attired ladies and gentlemen on Thursday evening, December 26th, 1872, who had gathered to witness the ceremony of marriage between John R. VanWagenen, of this village [Oxford, Chenango Co. NY], and Miss Clara Lester, of Binghamton. The Church was very handsomely decorated, being in holiday dress, the music was most excellent, and the ceremony was impressive. After the ceremony a brilliant reception was given at the residence of the bride's father, at which there were many invited guests present from this place. a large number of invitations were also issued to witness the ceremony. The bridegroom procured a special train of the D.L.&W.E. Co., for the accommodation of those invited, which left this station at 3:15 P.M. having started from Norwich with a few invited guests. A large number of relatives (representing three generations we believe) and friends went down on the train, returning after the reception. The trip and occasion was very much enjoyed by all. We extend our congratulations to our distinguished fellow townsman and wish him and his a long, happy and prosperous life.

Silas Seeley: died in Oxford [Chenango Co. NY], Sept. 27, 1872. Br. Seeley was born May 12, 1822 in Oxford, a few miles from where he died. He was converted in 1854, under the labors of Elder Spencer, and united with the Baptist Church where he continued an acceptable member until 1865, when he united with the M.E. Church, and remained an active and efficient member and officer of the same till his death, holding at that time the office of trustee, steward, and S.S. Superintendent. Always punctual, earnest, and faithful; acting from principle, he secured the confidence of the church and the people. A Christian man, he enjoyed religion, and exemplified its principles by an upright, consistent life, and died as he lived, at peace with God and his fellow man; living up to the command "to owe no man anything, but to love one another." His temporal, spiritual and eternal interests were all wisely settled long before sickness prostrated his body and weakened his mind. In his last sickness, he trusted and rested in his Redeemer and said "I leave all with Jesus," and died in hope after an illness of a few weeks. Br. Seeley possessed in an eminent degree such characteristics that cannot be too highly commended; a willingness to work in any way and anywhere, under favorable or unfavorable circumstances, for the cause of Christ, striving to make his ability the -?- of his usefulness. He married Abigail Nickerson May 9th, 1849, who is now left a childless widow to mourn his loss, but not as those without hope. The lord comfort and sustain her. Northern Advocate
