CORINTH Mr.. Ricnarl Robbie.
celebrated his Golden Wedding on
the I'D of March last, under circum.
stances OF II highly pleasing nature.
About one hundred of his friends
and neighbors, without notice to
MIR. Robe, assembled at the old
homestead, where 10 was born and
had lived his 53 years of married
life. After the ceremony Of the
golden nuptials, a splendid wedding
feast WAS displayed, prepared by the
guests, VINO had come to extend
their happy congratulations to the
venerable pair.
Numerous presents OF value and
comfort were presented by the fami.
" and friends, through q. 9. Sar.
gent. and were thankfully received
and happily responded to, on the
part OF Mr.. Robbie, by the Rev. q. N.
Winch.
The occasion was one OF great in.
terest, and was participated in by
many of the same generation OF Mr..
Robe, while all contributed their
good cheer and merry welcomes to
render the anniversary festival one
of pleasure and happiness.
But alas! the happiness of the
hour was soon shaded into sorrow
and mourning.
Scarcely had the family returned
to their homes, ere they were re.
summoned to the death bed of their
aged father.
Mr.. ltobie was born in 1907 and
died on the 25th of March last. lie
was kind husband, an indulgent
and faithful father, a neighbor of the
highest worth and respect an honor
ed and esteemed citizen. AT the
fireside aud in the family his kind
and wise cOunsels will he missed,
and the community will look in
vain, for spirit more genial and a
heart that pulsates in closer sylnpa-
thy with humanity.
Honest, frugal and Industrious,
Mr.. Robbie had always been one of
our most worthy trusted citizens,
and one in whose judgement was
entire safety and confidence. Low
ing and prudent in all his acts and
counsels, very few have surpassed
him in his devotion and interest to
his family. Neighbors and children
have, respectively, lost kind and
sympathetic friend, and a loving
and ever indulgent father. X.
