Saturday evening the 9th inst, marked
another mile stone in the life of one of
Wenonah's Oldest citizens, whose good wife
thought it advisable to celebrate in a
pleasant reunion of friends. The services
OF Vogt, the florist, and caterer Chaplain
were brought into requisition, the former
completely transforming the parlor of the
mansion into garden of chrysanthemums
in the centre of which was a huge bell
formed of sprigs Of Norway spruce fringed
with oak leaves, the work of one of the
guests. The head of the house had been at
his place of business all day and returned
home on the $50 train, to find his home
brilliantly Illuminated, beyy of happy
faces filling the parlor. The good wife
received him at the door and conducted him
to a place under the bell to receive the con-
gratulations of the friends assembled.
After the serving of substantial luncheon,
the evening was spent in pleasant CONVEX
sation and musicale. The guest departed
at a late hour with many good wishes to
