Thursday, 21 Mar 1861 Volume 2, Number 31 Married at the residence of the bride's mother, on Thursday, the 14th inst., by the Rev. L. R. Powell, Mr. Thomas Williams of Cambria twp., to Miss Mary Ann Davis of this place. With the above announcement we received a large and delicious pound-cake and a gold dollar! (That pound was a misnomer; there were about five pounds to the cake.) It never rains but it pours, and when it pours it comes down in large quantities. The happy Thomas and his estimable young bride have our thanks for the kind remembrance of the printer. If our wishes were of avail, then indeed would only the silver lining of the clouds be revealed to their vision during their stay in this world of cares and troubles. We sincerely hope their wedded life may prove to be all their fancy painted it; may they experience the full measure of bliss which is sure to follow the linking together of "two souls with but a single thought, two hearts that beat as one" and may prosperity ever attend them.
