A GOLDEN WEDDING.

Of Mr. and Mrs. George Jacobus Was Celebrated.

Last Saturday evening at their home, in this city Mr. and Mrs. George Jacobus celebrated their golden wedding. The occasion was also Mr. Jacobus' 75th birthday. There were about 100 guests present and the venerable couple were apparently as happy as on the occasion 50 years ago when they started on the journey of life together. The presents were useful, beautiful and elegant. Among the many remembrances were $75 in gold coin, three chairs, a lamp, a clock, spoons and many other articles. The supper which was served, to those who came before dark, upon the lawn, and to the later guests in the dining room, was a masterpiece of the culinary art. The occasion was a most happy and enjoyable one throughout. All present had a first rate good time and wished Mr. and Mrs. Jacobus many more years of wedded happiness.
