A GOLDEN DAY.
John L. Brown and Wife Have a Happy Time at Morrow
John L. Brown and wife, of Morrow, celebrated their
golden wedding at their residence on the 7th of November. A large company
assembled to honor the occasion, among whom were Mrs. George S.
Gray, of Mt. Auburn, Cincinnati; the Mesdames Resor,
of Clifton, Cincinnati, nieces of Mrs. Brown; A.
N. Couden and wife, the Misses Jane and Lizzie Patterson,
of Clarksville; Judge and Mrs. Mooar, of South Lebanon,
and twenty or thirty others who partook of a bountifeast of good things,
and had a most agreeable day. In the evening the young people called to
pity their tribute of regard and esteem, and made merry until a late hour.
Many golden tokens of appreciation of the givers found their way into
the hands of the young couple, who bid fair to outlive many of their young
guests. It is very seldom that one sees so hale and well preserved a couple
retaining their vigor and comeliness to the fiftieth anniversary of their
marriage. Three children and seven grandchildren were present, while two
of the sons, with several others of the grandchildren, were unable-to
be present.
