Silver Wedding.

Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Sherwin were
the recipients of pleasant and COM
plete surprise on Monday evening by
nearly four score Of their friends and
neigh bors, who gathered at their
pleasant home in east Brookings to
assist in celebrating their twenty
fifth anniversary.
The company, heavy laden with
choice refreshments, knocked for ad-
mission at the Sherwin home at about
$50 o'clock only to find the lady Of
the house quietly enjoying her even
ing reading by the peaceful fireside.
1t is needless to add that her aston
ishment was great as she came to the
door and this large crowd completely
filled the house, thronging in from
front door and rear.
Mr. Sherwin, who was enjoying q
game Of cribbage at the house Of
neighbor, was summoned to appear at
home, but suspecting nothing, in
sisted on playing the game out, much
to the amusement Of his host, DR..
Colgrove, and the unlimited guests
who had assem- bled to do him honor.
His arrival was therefore greeted
with shouts of laughter and showers
Of congratulations from his assem- bled
friends, and for once the genial gen.
tleman was almost fioored. The ev-
ening was passed very pleasantly in
spite Of the crowded condition of the
house, and at midnight the jolly
crowd began to disperss, leaving their
best wishes for future happiness and
many happy returns of the day.
During the evening Rev. w. NJ.
Jennings, 10 few we'll chosen words,
congratulated the happy couple and,
in behalf Of those sembled, pre-
sented them with a beautiful silver
tea set as reminder OF the occasion
and as token Of the high regard in
which they are held by their friends
and neighbors.
The REGISTER joins in the congrat-
ulations showered upon this worthy
couple and considers it an honor to
class them among its friends. They
are numbered among our very best
citizens and their excellent qualities
Of mind and heart have drawn a large
following Of friends who delight to do
them honor. May the future hold in
store life's richest blessings and the
same joy and peace mark their de-
clining years that has, for quarter of
century, followed them in their
married life.
