I may be slowing down a little bit the next couple of weeks. This week
is going to be a busy one, our daughter is having a bridal shower on
Thursday, and on Friday my husband and I will leave for Indy for the
weekend to attend a church conference. Our church is sponsoring the
conference, and I'm always put in charge of food, etc. The wedding is
on the 15th of May and will be small, but there will be a reception BBQ
afterward so will have to prepare for that also.
I told a friend of mine that I may not be able to afford it, but I'll
sure be ready for a trip to the library in Fort Wayne when all of this
is over! Of course, I'm always up for a trip to Fort Wayne! ;-)

MARRIED
On Thursday, the 5th inst., by the Rev. Mr. MILLER, MR. G.A. DURKEE to
MISS SALOME ELLIS--all of this county.
--The printer's would like to acknowledge the receipt of a delicious
Bride's Cake, about the size of an old fashioned Pone, but done up in
the most tasteful style. Of course the happy pair have the best wishes
of the craft.
--On Sunday evening last, in this city, by A.B. SLAUGHTER, Esq.., MR.
ULYSSES COOK to MRS. MARY CALHOUN.
--May they live a thousand years!
DIED
In this city on Wednesday, the 4th inst., after a short illness, MRS.
ELIZABETH, wife of MR. JACOB HOMAN, in the 31st year of her age.
--Indianapolis papers please copy.
--On the evening of the same day, JAMES QUIGLEY, son of HENRY and
ELIZABETH A. QUIGLEY.
--In Montgomery county, In., on the 16th ult., MR. ISAAC WHITE, in the
72nd year of his age. The deceased was a native of Maryland, and in the
latter part of his life a resident of this State. During his stay upon
Earth he was endeared to all who knew him, by his upright walk as a
Christian and virtuous living. But it was the Methodist Episcopal
Church (of which he was an acceptable member for more than 50 years,)
that his virtues shone most conspiculy [sic], and there his loss will be
particularly felt. The friends and relatives of the deceased, while
they are afflicted with this heavy dispensation of Divine Providence,
have the consoling reflection to cheer them that he has departed from
this world of affliction and sin, to that of Eternal Blessedness; for he
lived and died in hope of Heaven.
