HOWE - CARNEY

Monday afternoon, May 10, Mr. Edwin G. Howe, of Rochester, N. Y., youngest son of the late Hon. Jacob Howe, was married to Miss Sarah E. Carney, daughter of P. Carney, Esq., of Hopewell, the ceremony being performed by the Rev. Dennis English of St. Mary's church. After the wedding a reception was held at the residence of the bride's parents. The presents were numerous and costly. Lack of space prevents an extended list, but among them was an elegant set of pearls from the groom's sister, Mrs. Wm. H. Gorsline of Rochester. The happy couple left the same afternoon for a trip through the west, carrying with them the good wishes of a host of friends in this section and Rochester, where the groom is well known and highly esteemed.
