the affair 1t may be said that the hall would
have looked better if Willis had torn down
those wheezy old strips of bunting that have
done service SO long, but then it would seem
too much like the parting of old friends.
About seventy couples were in attendance
and the old hall was very well filled. Sew

that they were invited out. The visitors
said that they were invited toe, and that
there was plenty of time. Nevertheless Mr..

bell rang, he came to the conclusion that the

and found Mr.. Holland and wife at the head
of the procession Then some one exclaimed
" Surprises" and he recognized the fact
that it was his tin wedding.
Mr.. Simeon Gay bore alOft fine wedding
cake, and the remainder of the sixty or
more guests were chiefly loaded down with |
tinware. Among the assorted tinware was
