CELEBRATE 59TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY

Mr. And Mrs. Ed. Probasco Celebrate
59th Anniversary at Daughter's
Home in Moulton.

Fifty-nine years ago last Sunday Ed. Probasco, prosperous young farmer, was united in marriage to Miss Malinda McConnel, popular young lady living near Mt Ararat church at the home between Moulton and Centerville.
That happy day of many years ago was recalled at the home of their daughter, Mrs. H. P. Powers in Moulton. Sunday when they quietly passed their 59th anniversary.
Mr. and Mrs. Probasco are both in their 84th year but still vividly recall the many incidents of their early pioneer life. Most of their married life was spent near Centerville. For twenty-two years, they lived on their
farm near Golden City, Mo., moving to Moulton three years and took up their home with their daughter, Mrs. H. P. Powers.
Mr. Probasco is a Civil War veteran enlisting at the age of 17 with the 1st Missouri Cavalry and those hectic days of '64-'67 are clearly recalled by him.
The Tribune joins with their host of other friends in wishing them many more anniversaries and hopes that health and happiness may be
theirs down through their reclining years.
