TOWANDA, PA., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 28, 18S1.
MCQUISTON —MONTAX YE.—ALTHOUGH NO in
vitations were issued, the •ftcsbyterian
church was filled yesterdajypjSmioon with
an interested audience, calleflwgether to wit
ness the nuptials of Mr. JAMF.S MCQUISTON,
of Pittsburg and Mrs. LIZZIE D. MONTANYE,
of this place. At 1:30 the bride and groom
marched up the aisle preceded by the ushers,
and presented themselves before Rev. Doctor
STEWART, who proceeded to pronounce the
impressiva ceremony which made " the twain
one," in a most reverential manner, the or
gan meanwhile discoursing low, sweet mu
sic.
Among those present from out of town we
noticed Col. PIOI.LET, and Mrs. DEWING, of
Wysox, Mrs. WIREMAN, Harrisburg, Mrs.
It. A. PACKER, .Mrs. KOSENMULLER, Mr. and

Mr. and Mrs. MCQUISTON left on train 9
for Philadelphia and will proceed to their
home in Pittsburg. Mr. MCQ. is a leading
business man of the " smoky city " and holds
a high social position, which his wife will

There is a little romance connected with
the match. Some twenty years ago, the bride
—then Miss LIZZIE SALSBURY—attended
school in Pittsburg, where her father then
resided, her mother be ing dead, and the gen
tleman she has now wedded was a suitor for
her hand. They parted; both in time married.
Some years since his wife died and learning
that his first love, Mrs. MONTANYK,

which was yesterday consummated, we trust,
happily for both of them. May they long he
spared to each other and enjoy all the connu
bial bliss possible, is the sincere wish of hosts
of friends.
The only way that a good entertainment
can be brought to Towanda, is by subscrip

best of the kind before the public. ALFRED
J. KNIGHT'S Lyceum Combination. The
HELEN POTTER Pleiades, (new company this
season) and the CAKRENO Concert party.
The price of tickets for the course has been
placed at a very reasonable figure. Any one
desiring to encourage this effort can learn the
full particulars by calling on Mr. CROSS.
