Nov. 9, at Newry, William Bergen, a veteran soldier, 85 years old, to 
Margaret Down, also an ancient follower of the camp, and no novice in 
the field of Hymen, this being her fifth engagement.  The fair bride 
was ten years younger than the groom, but both had lost an eye, the old 
boy his right at Salamanca, the bride her left at Vinegar-Hill.
