WROXETER—Mr. and Mrs.
George Galbraith held open
house on Sunday, August 14 to
celebrate their diamond wed-
ding anniversary. The bride
and groom of 60 years ago are
enjoying reasonably good health
and have keen memories of in-
teresting happenings of days
gone by as well as the present,
Mr. Galbraith is still able to
drive his car and they enjoy an
outing.
Both were residents of Or-
ange Hill, a small hamlet in
Howick Township. Mrs. Gal-
braith, the former Grace How-
ard, was a daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Hugh Hamel Howard and
Mr. Galbraith was the son of
Mr. and Mrs, Bdward Galbraith.
They were married at the
bride's home on a warm, sunny
day by the Rev. C. P, Wells,
B, A. B.D. of the Methodist
Church. The church was situat.
ed on the groom's farm at
Orange Hill as was the school
house. Their only attendant
was a little flower girl, niece
of the bride, Gladys Warrell,
and following the ceremony
they left by train for a honey-
moon in Toronto, Hamilton and
other points. The first car seen
in Orange Hill belonged to a
cousin of the bride who came
from Tennessee. On their re-
turn home they resided on the
groom's farm until they retired
to Wroxeter in 1966.
They have a family of three
daughters, Mrs. S. M. (Nellie)
Burnell of Denver, Colorado
who could not attend this hap-
py occasion, Mrs. Reg (Gean)
Watson and Mrs. Carson (Al-
ma) Watson both of Brussels,
and two sons, Ward, of Rich-
mond, Virginia and Ken on the
home farm at Orange Hill. One
son, Howard, died at the age
of 4 years in 1916. They have
11 grandsons and one grand-
daughter and six great-grand-
children.
The happy couple received
telegrams, cards and letters
from the Queen, Premier John
Robarts, John piefenbaker,
Prime Minister L. B. Pearson,
Andrew Thompson, Marvin
Howe and Murray Gaunt. They
were also the recipients ofmany
