It will be observed that the rate OF
interest did not rise In New York by
quite a full half per cent. This was
because the interest rate in New York,
prior to the 1905 law, was somewhat
increased by the liability of mort
cages to taxation as personal property.
The falling off of the amount Of
money loaned was very great in the
county Of New York.
In 1906 the law was so amend
ed as to provide for one single
tax at that time of record, imposed on
all mortgages recorded on and after
July /, 1906 All mortgages made on
and after that date have been liable
to a single recording tax of onehalf
of one per cent, and are thereafter
exempt from all other taxation. The
effect Of this change In the law i'm
mediately appeared both in the de-
cline in the rate Of interest and In
the increase in the amount of money
loaned. | present the figures for the

All these statistics were made up in the
following way: The total amount of

interest charge on all the mortgages was
computed and then divided by the

upon the transaction must fall ultimately
upon the borrower Of money.

THE CELEBRATION OF A GOLDEN WEDDING.

THE CELEBRATION OF A GOLDEN
 WEDDING.
 Friends, relatives and neighbors to the number of about 100 gathered at the home of Mir and Mrs Jerome R. Morgan in Elmwood, on Monday night, and gave them a surprise, the occasion being the 5Oth anniversary of their marriage. On November 25, 1857, Miss Cornelia Benedict and Jerome R. Nor gan were united in marriage by Rev Stephen J. Stebbins, now deceased, in Southbury. George Northrop of Bridge port and the brides sister, Dr Celeste A. Benedict, also, of Bridgeport, were best man and bridesmaid at the time. Others now living, that were present at the wedding of 50 years ago, were Mrs Margaret Sutliff of Bristol, Polly Taylor of Danbury, the brides brother, Charles Benedict of Newtown, and Ed win Short of Bethel. It was very un- fortunate that owing to i'll health, none of these were able to be present at the gathering, last week Monday night. Among the older friends and associates of the aged bride and groom, that were present, were MT and Mrs Henry c. Judd, MT and Mrs Granville Andrews, Lyman Whitehead and G. w. Wheeler. Others present were friends and rela- tives from Great Plain, Shelton, Nor walk, Danbury and Bethel. Among the most interesting events of the evening were the presentation by Rev MT Lounsbury, in behalt of the friends and neighbors, of beautiful tea and dinner set and large rug. MT Louns- bury's speech was full of wit, and he also spoke with much feeling about this, their golden wedding. The rela- tives also presented MT and Mrs Morgan with a sum of money in gold. After serving bountiful repast, the guests joined in singing, "Blest be the tie that binds, and "Auld Lang Syne," both very appropriate for the occasion. Will liam Weston also entertained the guests with phonograph selections, one of which seemed made for the occasion, being entitled, the Golden Wedding" There were also recitations by Mrs w. B. Eastman and Miss Kate M. Judd. Among other gifts omitted in the above were 50 very large, beautiful yellow chrysanthemums. About midnight the guests departed after wishing the host and hostess many happy returns of other anniversaries and hoping that they may both be spared to celebrate their diamond wedding.

 CHRIST CHURCH.

lHklsl lHLkGH.
 Redlands. Cal. Nov. :. lg0i,
 My dear Brother Jepson and Stephen Sanford: thank you cordially for your kind invitation to be present. next Sunday and Monday. in my old parish church at Bedding. Flying ma. chimes are not yet in use in California, but if living l shall be there in spirit. It is no small honor to have been one of the successors of the great John Beach and 1t is through the favor of Divine Providence that my life has been prolonged two years beyond that of the first resident pastor who had spent fifty years in the ministry. There were some mistakes in my History of the Parish and one or two typograph- ical errors. But l must be brief and can only give single item which will be of special interest and from mem- ory. read in n Hartford newspaper in 1883 that the steamers New England and Water Witch were racing when the boiler of the former burst and caused the death of the two Lay delegates from Christ church, Bedding, to Dio- cesian convention. John M. Heron and Dr Samuel B. Whiting. This should have been part of my contribution to the story of the parish in 1880. have always regretted that there was not in Mir Todd's History of Bedding a more fullsketch of the Rev John Read, probably the first churchman in the present town. lhave found some inter esting notices in the Connecticut Mag. azine but cannot give them now.
 With much love to all my old par ishioners and all the dear brethren ir Christ who will be present at the an niversary, and many thanks for youl kind remembrance of me while in "a far country" May Good Lord bless you and keep you till we meet again ir land which to me is not very far off.

After 50 years of welded life their son and wife gave reception to their friends and rela- tives, many who attended the wedding were present to congratulate the bride and groom of half a century. They came from Hartford, Stratford, Derby and vicinity. A number of useful and ornamental momentoes were left to re- mind them of the day. Their four score years sit lightly; the groom is as straight as in youth, the bride as gentle and stable. They have three grandsons to cheer them at the beginning of their second half century of married life. One brother, few years younger, was present.
