Wedding.
BRANDON. Oct. I, 1872

BRANDON, Oct. l, 1877.
Dear Herald: At ten o'clock Tues
day morning | had the pleasure of being
present at the wedding of Theodore w.
Fisher, Esq, of Burlington, Vt, to
Juliette K. Hawkins, at the residence of J.
@. Hawkins, ESQ, Brandon. The Off
ciating cl rgyman was Rev. Franklin
TuXbury. The recent illness of Mr..
TuXbury came very near depriving the
interested parties and friends of Inspires
ence at the marriage ceremony, he was
almost unable, as to strength of body, to
officiate, but his strength of mind and
purpose to do this act, brought him
promptly to the place and time, and it
is impossible for those present to convey
to others the impressions created by his
deep feeling and the anxiety, though
feeble in health, to fill his full share of
the official duties. His personal regard
for those he united was fully shown.
About one hundred couples were pres
ent at the reception and partook of the
bOunteOus delieacies of which the tables
were laid. Everything combined to
make this wedding certainly one of the
most elegant that has come off in this
vicinity for a long while. Among the
many substantial and costly tokens pre-
sented to the bride and groom, we no
ticed one by the parents of the bride, a
family Bible of much more intrinsic val
ne than all, which | have no doubt will
be their sure guide in life The new
ly married pair with several friends left
Brandon at three o'clock to-day for Bur
lington, the new home, where to the sur
prise of the bride, she will find a new
house furnished throughout ready to re-
ceiye her. Many were the kind wishes
and many the regrets as she left Bran
don. All friends bid them a long and
happy life and Brandon never lost or
Burlington gained more beautiful or
accomplished bride than in this case.
From your bachelor friend Y.
