A SILVER WEDDING.
And a GenuineHs urpr,seNlparty.

Ana eehunemS urprtseRfhrty'
One of those pleasing, social oc-
casions that makes all the world
seem nearer kim" occurred in this
village last Saturday evening. A
few days before, it transpired that
this would be the twenty-fifth ami
versary of the marriage of Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. A, Shatmck, and one or
two friends quietly circulated the
word and on the evening in question
over forty of their neighbors dropped
in upon them, taking them completely
by surprise, no inkling of the matter
having reached them, Mr.. Shattuck
was on the street and had to be sent
for, while his good wife had seated
herself by window to listen to a
street vendor of soap, when the first
arrival awoke her from a dreamy rev.
erie to realization that her house
was in state of siege. The guests,
to make amends, possibly, for their
forced presence, brought with them
abundance of refreshments, which
were served in due time and enjoyed
without stint. Socially the occasion
was very pleasant, Mr.. and Mrs.
Shattuck making each and everyone
feel at home. On the center table
the friends had arranged few, but
very neat and costly, presents, testi-
monlals of good will and an appreci-
alton of good citizenship wherein this
worthy couple take high rank. AT
an appropriate time States Attorney
Cudworth in a very feeling and pleas
ant manner made tender of those
to the host and hostess together with
the good will of their visitors and
their earnest desire that they might
live to celebrate their golden we'd
ding. Mr.. Shattuck very pleasantly
and appropriately responded. Pleas
ant remarks, appropriate to the occa.
sion, were also made by Rev. W. A.
Bryant.
Among the presents we note the
following, all of silver: An elegant
cake basket on which was engraved
1S65-1S90, a neat individual salt
and pepper stand, pie knife, cake
knife, berry spoon and butter knife.
In addition to the above was leathe,
pocket case filled with cigars. This
latter of course was intended espec,
Tally. for William who enjoys the fra
grant weed"
Ara late hour the company broke
up and retired to their homes feeling
none the worse for their part il
showing their neighborly appreciation
of this worthy couple.

Death of an old Esteemed Citizen

With much regret we announce the
death of one of Londonderry's old
and esteemed citizens, Emery L..
Harrington, which occurred early last
Saturday morning, at the age of 6S
years, 5 months and IL days.
Mr.. Harrington was native of
this town and resided here all his life
and for the last 33 years on the farm
on which he died. In 1913 he mar
ried Emily French of Bennington, a
most estimable lady, who survives
him. He represented this town in
the state legislature in 1872, and
was a man highly esteemed, by all
who knew him, as an honest, up
right citizen whose word was as good
as his bond. For many years he
was a faithful and consistent member
eff the Baptist church and died in the
Christian faith as one who ssworked
while it was yet day" He leaves a
widow but no children.
Funeral services were held last
Sunday at the family residence, Rev.
o. P. Fuller officiating. A large
number of friends and neighbors at
tended.

Our happenings last week etc. were
as follows.
A hot wave struck us the forepart
of the week and made everybody puff
and perspie. Later it was delight

The notary's seal is OF frequent use
nowadays. Chronic diarrhea, rheu-

undertakers need expect no immedi-

petions from this particular locality.
