travels along life's pathway together
for half century meeting and battling
its sunshine and storms, its trials and
hardships. One or the other falls by

That happy event falls to the lot of

and fate has dealt gently with them,
the occasion is pleasant one ineeed.
Mr.. and Mrs. Aaron G. Hubbell are

his home and stay with a young
lady cousin all night as he was Obliged
10 go To his farm in the country and
she was afraid TO stay alone. She OBJ
jected saying she had TO be back to the
boarding house by nine o'clock. Teat
urged her TO go up and call on his
cousin for short time which she did
he following and when inside of his
rooms he locked the doors. There was
no person in the shape of cousin
