HOARD-DYGERT. In Herkimer at the home of the bride's stepfather on the 11th inst. by Rev. L. J. Fletcher, Tyron A. Hoard, D. D. S. and Jennie A. Dygert, stepdaughter of Hon. Amos H. Prescott. "We learn that this wedding was a very delightful and brilliant one. The mansion of the Judge was brilliantly decorated with flowers; a large marriage bell made of flowers, fern, ivy and similax marked the place the ceremony was to be performed; and large tents, well lighted and finely carpeted, were erected on the lawn adjoining the house, in which refreshments were served. A band of music enlivened the occasion, and between four and five hundred guests sat down to the wedding feast. ED."(Christian Leader, Utica, 21 Sep 1878)
