TIN WEDDING-Mr. and Mrs John Wheeler
of Cumberland Mills, celebrated the tenth an
niversary of their wedding on Monday evening.
large and happy company of friends were
present. The guests learned how many arti-
cles useful and ornamental to the household
can be made of tin, by looking at table load
cd with gifts A speech of presentation, ex-
pressing the congratulaton and good wishes of
friends, was made by Rev. j. E. Fullerton.
The response of the bridegroom was such as
we should expect from General Grant under
the same circumstances. The guests then re-
paired to the dining rooms where an elegant
table of refreshments had been set, or spread
through the parlors, and spent an hour of So
cial enjoyment.
That the tin may be followed by the silver
and the silver by the golden, is the wish of all
their friends
