The groom is a linotype operator on the Washington Herald and during frequent visits to Norwich has made numerous warm friends.  Mr. and Mrs. Mallard are spending a part of their honeymoon in Norwich as guests of Dr. and Mrs. Westcott and will visit Niagara falls before journeying to Washington to take up their residence.

Gilbert - Spencer

Afton Enterprise, January 7, 1887

At an early hour Christmas morning over fifty invited guests assembled in the handsome parlors of the lovely country home of Henry Spencer, of Coventry, to celebrate the marriage ceremony of his eldest daughter, Miss Jesse [Spencer], to Mr. Charles Gilbert, the Rev. S.H. Wood officiating. The bride was attired with modest simplicity, and looked very pretty in her brown satin  intercepted with white satin bows.  Her sister acted as bride's maid and wore an olive green satin.  Mr. B. Bassett was "best man."  The music on this occasion was superb, professor DeForest Foote presiding at the piano, ably assisted in vocal music by Miss Myrta Barnes, of Harpursville and Mr. and Mrs. Sumner Foote.  A bridal souvenir written by Mrs. Belle Hinckley Fell, of New Orleans, and read by the author, was dedicated to the bride. A large number of beautiful and useful presents were presented to the happy couple.  Great credit is due the parents of the bride who were untiring in their efforts to promote the pleasure of their guests, and the occasion will long and happily be remembered by those present.
