Silver Wedding.
Twenty-five years ago yesterday
Cashier Sutherland Was a pretty good
looking young man' and Miss Rose
Alger was hurrying around much as
the maidens of today do on the day
they wed. Wednesday evening they
celebrated what is known as the silver wedding, about fifty of their
friends attending and making merry.
It was interesting to bear rehearsed
the days long gone by, though to both
of them those early days seem as but
yesterday, and if as today, the newspaperman of twenty-five years ago,l in
writing up the wedding.closedby wishing the newly .wedded pair a "happy
and prosperous wedded life," he certainly has had his wish fulfilled
whether he knows it or not. They
were presented with a very Pice silver
sugar and creamer and a berry dish,.J
tokens of the esteem in which they
have always been held by the citizens
of Clare. That they may continue to
enjoy life another twenty-flye years
aud celebrate their golden wedding is
the wish of the Sentinel and their
large list of warm personal friends.
