Clinton Couple Mctr'k
65th Wedding Day
Saturday was an eventful day
in the lives` of Mr. and Mrs.
Ernest H. Epps, Clinton, for
they celebrated their 65th wed-
ding anniversary.
On June 1, 1897, the couple
married in London at the Tal-
bot Street Baptist parsonage.
Although they were from Bur-
ford, in the . Brantford -Wood-
stock area, they lived in Ayl-
mer following their marriage.
There Mr. Epps made a mod-
est living -as a. blacksmith,
earning the sum of 40 cents
for removing four shoes, an
Si for shodding a horse. Th
price paid today to shoe a race-
horse—about the only kind of
a horse left — runs anywhere
from $15 to $30," said Mr. Epps.
After five years they moved
to Varna in Huron County,
where Mr. Epps continued his
trade until 1918 when he 'form-
ed the Epps Transport Com-
pany
In 1934 they moved to Clin:
ton where seven years later Mr,
Epps sold his business to the
Hanover Transport Co.
Today, at the age of 86, M.
Epps is still an active citizen.
As regular as clockwork each
day he is on the job at the
Ellwood Epps Sport Shop,
known all across Canada and
the United States, and owned
by his son Ellwood. There he
assists in packing and shipping
the orders.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Epps have
contributed in many ways to
the community. They are mem-
bers of the Wesley -Willis Unit-
ed Church, where Mr. Epps is
an elder. and a life member of
the Men's Club.
Airs. Epps is the former
Elizabeth Wingarden, who be-
fore her marriage was a seam-
stress. At the age of 85 she has
a record of achievement in wo-
men's groups, being a life mem-
ber of the WMS -and the Good-
will Club, as well as a member
of the Woman's Association be-
fore it was amalgamated into
the United Church Women. She
is a life member of the Clinton
Women's Institute, and at the
present time she is chairlady
d of her ward of the Clinton Pro -
e gressive Conservative Associa-
tion.
Their family includes three
sobs, Clifford and Ellwood, both
of Clinton; Lorne, London; and
one daughter, Mrs. M. E. (Eva)
Clarke, Seaforth; eight grand-
children and 18 great-grandchil-
dren. All were present for Sat-
urday's • celebration, • with the
exception of a grandson, Prof.
Ernest G. Clarke, a member of
the staff of the University of
Toronto, as head of its Far
East Department. Prof. Clarke

degree at the University of Lie -
den. Mr. Epps's only surviving
sister, Mrs. Etta Crich, Welland,
