WILLIAM M. MILLER & EMMA E. PEARNE
 MARRIAGE

   On Thursday evening, occurred in Oxford a very happy social event that has been the topic of society gossip and expectancy in Oxford, for some time past.  The occasion was the marriage of Miss Emma E., daughter of B. M. Pearne to Wm. M. Miller, a prominent citizen and well known Oxford merchant.  The ceremony was performed by Rev. H. N. Payne, of the Congregational Church, at the house of the bride's father at 7:30 o'clock.

   The house with the aid of friendly hands had been decorated with a profusion of flowers and everything possible done worthy the occasion.  Among the guests present were, G. H. Perkins, partner of the groom, and wife, Hon. S. Bundy and wife, Hon. E. B. Prindle, and Mrs. H. G. Prindle, of Norwich; Rev. Stephen Bush and wife, of Waterford; Mrs. Harmon Hubbard, of Cortland; Miss Sarah H. Hubbard, of Vassar College; Miss Nellie J. Pearne, of Cortland; Miss Clara Pearne, of Philadelphia; Miss Hattie Arnold and Wesley U. Pearne, of Middletown, Conn.; Miss Libbie R. Bundy, of New Haven; Mr. Hatch of Owego; and a wealth of gifts testified the good will and affection of the friends of the happy people.  Mr. and Mrs. Miller left on the 8:30 P. M. train for New York, whence on Saturday they are to sail for Europe, upon a tour of several months duration.  They enjoy the company of W. R. Mygatt, Esq. and wife, and Miss Mai Mygatt, as far as New York.  The heartiest well wishes of all go with them.
