"Fairfield Ledger Weekly", February 18, 1869

A Golden Wedding.--- The like never before occu rred [sic] in Fairfield, that we are aware of, and it may be many years ere it occurs again; but it did take place on Thursday last, February 11th, 1869. On that day Mr. A. H. and Mrs. Isabell BROWN celebrated their Golden Wedding. The occasion was one of rejoicing. The aged couple, who are yet active and healthy were surrounded by some of their children and friends, and pleasure beamed from every face. From the Golden Wedding we received a full share of cake, and while we cannot wish them many “happy returns of the day,” we do hope that their declining years may be peaceful and happy, and that their hereafter may be bright and glorious.
