Surprise Wedding Anniversary.
Between 150 and 200 friends met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Serfling on Saturday, July 6th, at about 9 o’clock p. m., and completely took possession of their home; it being the 25th anniversary of their wedding on July 4th, the friends decided to celebrate the event on Saturday evening.
The beautiful lawn was splendidly lighted up with lamps and lanterns and willing hands spread tables with a most bountiful and very tasty repast and at 10 o’clock as many as could be seated comfortably sat down to the feast. A handsome purse having been taken up in the meantime was presented to Mr. and Mrs. Serfling by Mr. Abe Privat in a short but well chosen speech.
After all had been supplied with the good things, under which the tables fairly groaned, the evening was spent in social chat until about 12 o’clock when the gathering dispersed, all agreeing that they had spent a most pleasant and agreeable evening and one long to be remembered by everyone present.
