A Belated Honeymoon Trip.

Mr and Mrs. J. Hoffhines of this city will start next week on a honeymoon trip which has been delayed just fifty years.but that will not prevent them from enjoying it. When they were married Mr. Hoffhines promised his bride a honeymoon trip whenever he could find the time. It has been just fifty years since they were married, and during all that time Mr. Hoffhines has been so busy with business affairs that he could not get away, but now they are going back to visit the scenes of their childhood in Ohio, expecting to be gone a couple of weeks, stopping on the way in Chicago to visit their two daughters, Mrs. Amy Truesdell and Mrs. C. H. Simmons.

Transcriber's Note: Jonas Hoffhines and Alice Fraizer were married on Easter Sunday, April 1, 1866 at Lima, Ohio.
