were to be in attendance at so festive

er. The bride and groom of forty
years ago were presented with a beau
tiful leather couch and a chair to
match from their friends on the Pra-
irie, besides many nice gifts of linen,
silver and cut glass from other
friends. Mr.. De Koyer responded in
a very interesting speech in which he
noted the many changes which had
taken place since they have resided
on the farm on Webster Prairie. Only
two farms in that vicinity still have
families of the same name residing
on them. The farms are the McGin-
mis- and the Cobleigh farm. His speech
was much enjoyed. A delicious sup
per was served after which the guests
left for their homes with many good
wishes for their neighbors, Mr.. and
Mrs. De Koyer, and with hopes of
their celebrating their golden wed
ding, which is not so far away.
