  An occasion of much pleasure and genuine enjoyment to a large circle of 
friends of the happy principals come off at the residence of Colonel Wm. Espy, 
in Scott township, last night.  It was the marriage of Miss Anna L., one of 
the younger daughters of Col. Espy, to Rev. D.A. duff, of the U.P. church, 
Stewart-station.  Half-past eight o’clock was the time fixed for the ceremony,
