The fifteenth marriage anniversary,
"crystsl wedding" Of Rev. S. C. Swallow, Pre-
siding Elder Of the Altoona NJ. r. district and
bis lady, was celebrated by fifty or more Of his
friends and neghbors at his home in Tyrone,

and exceedingly tasteful and handsome, The
party was gotten up unknown to the reverend
gentleman, and was quite surprise to him, but
they had grand supper and pleasant time never
iheless.
