Marriage
On the 5th inst. by the Rev. Mr. Sheridan, Mr. Edward Carlisle to Miss Mercy Powers all of this village [Binghamton, Broome Co. NY].
Death
At the residence of the Rev. S.W. Brace in this village [Binghamton, Broome Co. NY] on Saturday evening last, Miss Frances E. [Pardee] only child of Charles and Eliza Pardee of Skaneateles, Onondaga County [NY], aged fifteen years and six months.
In this event, we record another of those mysterious dispensations which Divine Providence sometimes sends, filling many hearts with anguish, many eyes with tears, and shrouding a whole community with gloom and sadness.
The deceased left her happy home on Tuesday, the 27th of May, for a visit of a few weeks to her friends in this place. She had been slightly indisposed at intervals for a few months past, but not so much so as to cause any serious apprehensions for her safety, and when she left home, she was all life and animation - her sparkling eye - her cheerful voice and looks of health filling the hearts of her parents with fond hopes and joyous anticipations of years of domestic happiness and love. Before her arrival at this place however, she complained of some slight degree of illness, and the morning after, it was thought necessary by her anxious friends to call in medical advice. No serious apprehensions were entertained as to the result until Thursday evening last, when, after spending a part of the afternoon in cheerful conversation with her friends, and even herself trying to hum a favorite air which she had requested might be sung to her, the insidious disease which was preying upon her appeared to effect the brain and soon after reason forsook its throne, and but once only from that time, did she give any signs of returning consciousness. Death had securely marked her for its own, and neither prayers nor tears, no anxious friends, nor wealth nor skill could save her from the grave. She lingered until Saturday evening about six o'clock and died!
To attempt to describe at this time her loveliness or speak of her worth would only probe the wounds we fain would heal. They are and will ever be, embalmed in the fond affections of her numerous relatives and friend who "Had only seen her but to love, / To know her but to praise."
Her remains, accompanied by her deeply afflicted parents and a few friends, left this place on Sunday morning for Skaneateles for interment.
