The last days of the old Episcopal Church bid fair to be its most brilliant.  It certainly takes the lead in the matrimonial line. Thursday afternoon last the spacious church was again crowded to its utmost capacity by a gay and happy company, who assembled to witness the ceremony of uniting Henry M. Tefft, Esq., and Miss Sophia E. Weiler in the holy bands of wedlock.  As on previous occasions, the Church was profusely decked with evergreens and flowers, and no pains had been spared to make the occasion in all respects a joyous one. The organ pealed forth sweet notes of welcome, and the bright sun without, and the sunny hearts within, all contributed to render the scene one of pleasure and enjoyment for all.  The ceremony occupied but a few moments, and the happy couple - now one - passed from the church man and wife.  The wedding party then adjourned to the residence of the bride's parents, where congratulations were offered.  The many elegant bridal presents were viewed with admiration, and the refreshments also received proper attention.  In the evening the bride and groom repaired to their home on West Street, where they were joined by near friends, and the festivities were continued.  Later in the evening they were serenaded by the Handel and Haydn Society, of which Mrs. Tefft is a member. Witaker this occasion to tender our congratulations to the happy couple and wish them unalloyed happiness in their journey together through life.

Deaths

JOHNSON:  In this village [Norwich, Chenango Co. NY] June 14th, George Johnson, aged 20 years.

WATERS:  In North Norwich [Chenango Co. NY], June 15th Miss Maria A. Waters, aged 59 years.

BURDICK:  In Mcdonough [Chenango Co. NY], June 9th, Miss Sarah L. [Burdick] daughter of William R. Burdick, aged nearly 26? years. 

LOWNSBERRY:  In Oxford [Chenango Co. NY], June 11th, Mr. Jared D. Lownsbery, aged 79 years.

Pitcher [Chenango Co. NY]:  It is with regret that we announce the sudden death of the widow of John Corning, who resided with her son Burdette Corning on the Brackel.  Mrs. Corning was taken suddenly ill on Monday of last week, with typhoid pneumonia, and died on Thursday.

FULLER:  In Lincklaen [Chenango Co. NY], June 4th, Orello C. [Fuller] eldest son of CR. and Augusta K. Fuller, aged 16 years, 8 months, 15 days.

We learn that Orello, a son of Chauncey Fuller of Lincklaen, aged about 17 years, died suddenly last Friday.  The young man arose on Sabbath morning and commenced making preparations for church, but remarked that he did not feel very well, and thought he would stay home.  When the family returned from church he was in bed and was soon taken vomiting which continued until his death.  A postmortem examination held on Saturday reveled a bad condition of the bowels.  A large accumulation of matter was found in the abdominal cavity, which indicated an inflammation of long standing, but the young man had never complained of pain and worked every day previous to his sickness. Register

Lincklaen:  Last week we noted an accident which befell one of the members of O.R. Fuller's family, little thinking that we should be called on to chronicle a very painful bereavement to the same family this week. The oldest son, Orello C. died on Friday the 4th, after a brief illness of but five days.  During his sickness his case presented symptoms of so strange a nature, that the physician in attendance requested a postmortem examination, which was granted.  Seven of the profession were present and the cause of his death was found to be acute inflammation of the bowels, which was of so bad a nature that at least two pounds of matter had formed around the inflamed parts. This might have been years in forming and would have proved fatal immediately to a person advanced in years, but on account of his rapid growth it had not been noticed before. The family have the sympathy of the entire community in their great bereavement.  [Chenango telegraph, Norwich, NY, June 17, 1875]

Chenango Telegraph, Norwich, NY, June 17, 1875

Marriage

Lincklaen [Chenango Co. NY]:  One of those happy events, which it is our lot to chronicle occasionally transpired at the residence of Mrs. R.W. Richmond in New Woodstock, on the 8th, Mr. S. Albert Preston, one of our young men embarked in the "sea of matrimony," taking with him one of the fairest of the fair, Miss D. Carrie Richmond.  The marriage was solemnized with feastings and rejoicings, Rev. J. Tolman officiating, after which the happy couple departed on their wedding tour, taking with them the best wishes of many friends. We feel as one said directly after the ceremony, "Our loss is their gain" and wish them very many anniversaries of as pleasing a character as was this their marriage reception.  Among the many and valuable presents to the bride, the one which attracted the most attention, not on account of its worth pecuniarily, but from its age and history, was a gilt trimmed China tea set over one hundred years old.  The set we believe was complete and of course highly prized.

Deaths

CUMMINGS:  In this village [Norwich, Chenango Co. NY], June 4th, of diphtheria, Cora E. [Cummings] daughter of Stephen and Emily Cummings, aged 7 years.

Mother, dear, we crossed the wave / Of death's deep rolling tide, / To the land beyond the grave / That lies on the other side. / Twas when evening shades drew nigh, / That told of closing day, / I breathed my last, faint sigh, / And passed from earth away.

You have loving children left, / To bless declining years, / Your life's not all bereft / Look up through falling tears. / We shall meet beyond the river, / Whose shores are clad in living green, / Where the sunlight's ceaseless quiver / Amid bright Angel's forms are seen.  J.S.

ATKINS:  In Otselic [Chenango Co. NY], May 19th, 1875, of scarlet fever, Dever [Atkins] son of George H. and Phebe K. Atkins, aged 3 years.

The loved ones of our home the dark angel bore, / To roam with the bright ones on a deathless shore.

RYDER:  Near Beaver Meadow [Chenango Co. NY], June 7th, 1875, Charles Lansing, only son of Daniel and Louisa Ryder, aged three years.

We have lain our darling down to sleep / With the tender flowers of spring, / And our hearts are sad and heavy now, / Though he flies with angel wings.

The warm breath of another spring / Will open the floweret's eyes. / And well we know our Lantie dear/ Shall bloom in Paradise.

J.F. Wheeler, formerly a resident of this town [Lincklaen, Chenango Co. NY], and now Superintendent of the County House in Madison Co., was in town on Wednesday last.

NY].  We learn that he has procured a family burial spot at the latter place.
