S. Lupo, near Monticello, to participate in the celebration of their "Golden Wedding." Although the day was dark and clocdy and there was an almost constant downpour of rain, all of the invited guests were preseut and not one had sent an excuse. The very fact of rain, so much needed upen the thirsty fleld3, served to increase the joyfuloes3 and grateful spirit of the occasion, and the merriment and laughter within was a spontaneous and happy accompaniment to the patter of rain on the roof. There is a ?p:rit of sad sweetness that possesses the heart in standing before a couple that has passed the mueiu tune siunu vi luariicu m-. When we reflect upon the contrast of the first and second wedding. A youth and maid in the strength and hopefulness of youth stand before us; and in the hope and faith of young life look forward to a life rchose difficulties seem email, wheire trials few and the dark cloud of sorrow finds no place ia their hesven of happiness. The years have rolled. The joys have been many, bat trials have come too, a good fight has been foaght. Life's, path was r.ot so smooth ?8 they expected, and the bowed form, the wrinkles and silvered hair but mark the mile stones, and are witnesses to the rough places along the'way. On the occasion our hearts responded to a feeling of profound honor and respect a3 we stood in the presence of such a noble pair. Two who had through the years preserved such an honorable name and bad so successfully reared their children in the "nurture and admonition of the Lord." Of iiicse tbere are eight children and twenty-six grandchildren, all of whom were present 011 this bappy occasion. Th3 number of guests pressut, including children and grandchildren, unmoored aoout sixty. In iLe presence of the standing assembly the couple entered when Ju.v. II. L Baaksof the XI. E. Church iu appropriate aud well chosen words, remarked upon the honored and exemplary life of this consecrated,*-^* and recommended ihe exatrp' _ (heir lives to a!! present. Rc ~~A. McDowell fittingly gave a eIi ^ review of the life of this minister y.' the gospel and gave praise to his worthy helpmeet who would share not only his worldly praise, but that to come.

Scott, of Longtown, to which Rev. Lupo very touchingly responded. Prayer was offered by Rev. Banks, and the congratulations which followed were sincere and appropriate. Among the presents given was a iarge comfortable willow rocker presented to Rev. Lnpo by theMonticello Sunday School. Air. W. D. Davis in a few chosen words made the presentation. Also a pair of gold spectacles apiece from their children. Their daughter Mrs. E. D. Lnpo, of Atlanta, brought a handsome golden cake .vbich, with an elegant centerpiece in gold, adorned the main table. The dinner was served at high noon and was all that a wedding feast could be. In the afternoon j Mr. Reckling photographed the lamny group, after which the assembled guests, servants and all were photographed on the rocks in the yard. This picture will serve as au appropriate souvenior and happy reminder of a pleasant occasion The pleasures of the afternoou were adaed to much by the recitations in dialect of Miss Irene Lupo of Atlanta. This yonng lady is one of the few who has successfully attained the accomplishment of dialect speaking. To this honored couple we extend our best wishes and desire that tney may vet be spared to celebrate their "Diamond Wedding." July 28, '99. E II M. Q?What noise a... - oyster?
