1t would be interesting to hear what our
readers would say If we wrote up the we'd
dings today as they did in 1888 in a semi
monthly newspaper devoted to womens in
tercsts and published in Philadelphia:
MARRIED
ON the 22d ult., by the Rev. Edmund s
James. Mr.. jeremiah Bill, of Southwark to
Miss Elizabeth Cost of Northern Liberties
TO sue for debts is very in
Except you fear to meet a loss.
But Lizzy, she received the Bill;
Poor Jerry had TO pay the Cost
In Winthrop. by the Rev. Mr.. Thurston
MIR. Alouzo Wood to Miss Abigail H.
Branch.
The Branch when separate from the tree
No genial influence will nourish
But now the Branch cleaves to the Wood,
No wonder IL it thrive and flourish.
