One of the most interesting occasions
which has transpired in this city for long
lime was the event of the golden wedding
If Mr.. and Mrs. John Wagner Mr. Wag-
ner was born in February, 1906, in Fleissen,
Germany and his wife, who is about the
Iame age, came from Matzen. They were
blessed with seven children, all living, for
y-seven grandchildren, and one great
,randchild. They came to Kenosha the
18th day Of June, 1850, and have resided in
his vicinity since that time. 1t is singu-
ar circumstance that Mr.. Wagner celebrates
1is seventy-seventh birthday on the same
lay with his golden wedding. A large
amily gathering were present; the gifts
by filial affectien were many and
beautiful. The festivities of the occasion
we're unmarried by any disturbance, and all
vent as merry as when the marriage bells
ang for the same happy couple fifty years
Igo in the fatherland.
