A GOLDEN WEDDING CELEBRATION.
Last Saturday was the 5Oth anniver-
sary of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs
Jerome Smailey of Lake district.
Elaborate preparation was made
by their children in this county
to properly and joyously observe the
day at their parents home. AS he has
been a consistant, faithful member of
Rising Sun lodge, No. q, F. & A. M,
at Washington Depot for IS years,
several of the members expected to
extend their congratulations in person
to the respected couple on that day,
but the rain prevented full consum-
nation of plans and although their
home was we'll filled during the day
by the children with husbands and
wives and grandchildren and also the
other near relatives OF the pair, many
were prevented from joining in the
celebration by the weather. Mr. and
Mrs Smalley have been long and most
favorably known in this near vicinity
for nearly three-quarters of a century
and truly deserve all the respect and
regard of the community. May their
lives glide on together for many years
to come in contentment and comfort.
