Last Friday evening, November 23d,
being the fortieth milestone in the
welded life of Charles McNamee and
wife, near Deakyneville, this county,
it was decided that the event should be
celebrated by gathering of their
children and friends. Although the
day was disagreeable, by evening there
gathered a pleasant company, and not
the least pleasant was the smiling bride
and groom of forty years, each looking
young and very we'll, considering the
years they had passed. A very beauti-
full and wel-filled table was spread the
length Of the large dining room, til >
centre being graced by large wedding
cake. After all had done ample Justice
to the supper the bride and groom were
presented with many useful and valua-
BILE presents, each pair of gold spec
tacles, silver spoons, china ware, linen
and other articles, one that was ad.
mired by the company being cake
presented by friend, ornamented with
birds and green vines. The evening
was spent in social chat, with vocal
music and prayer by Mr.. John farrell,
an aged and respected neighbor. The
company dispersed at seasonabe
hour, wishing the bride and groom of
tie occasion many returns of their we'd
ding anniversary.
