daffodils, narcissus, roses, tulips and
greenery in profusion, all spooling to
us- of the wonderful Easter season,
After the services the Ladies' Aid took
the flowers to the shut-ins, to cheer
and brighten their day for them.

Mark the Completion of Sixty
Years of Married Life
Mr. and Mrs. John H. 1Vfredd of
Main Street, Exeter, celebrated the
sixtieth anniversary of their wedding
on Sunday, March 31st. John Henry
1VLiedd and Elizabeth Bruce were united
in marriage at the bride's home in
the Township of Cartwright on March
"31st, 1869. , The young couple im-
mediately came west to Huron Coun-
ty and settled on a -partly cleared.
farm on the seventh concession of
Mullett, undergoing in some measure,
the difficulties andprivatioins of
pioneer life and sharing in the tasks
of the church and community, they
made a worthy contribution of ser-
vice. For fifty-two: years they lived
and farmed in Huliett. There were
born to thein: seven children,, five
boys and two girls, five are still liv-
ing. They retired from the farm in
1921 and moved . to Exeter where
they have since resided.
On this happy gheasion, Mr. and
Mrs. t were d Mm m

Mrs, G. F. Craik of Windsor, was
linable to be present; but sent a lov-
ely gift -with her congratulations.
Congratulatory messages and gifts
were received front many relations
and friends, some orf whom were,un-
able to be present. The tribute of
flowers was splendid.'. Indeed,' the
rooms were beautiful with roses, Eas-
ter lilies and other spring flowers.
Rev. C. J. Moorhouse, their pastor,
conducted a shot.prcigram and spoke
in kindly reference to Mr, and Mrs.
Medd,
A spciai guest was Rev. D. Rogers
of St. Thomas, an old-time pastor and
friend. He 'gave a short address and
read a letter which he had written
to them a short time previously, The
closing paragraph expresses the
hopes and wishes of their luny_
friends. The letter follows:
"Dear brother J. H. and Mrs, Medd:
Living not very far from Cartwright
it is very probable that sixty years
ago this month, .I read in the Bow-
manville Statesman that John H. Medd
and Miss Elizabeth Bruce were uni-
ted in the bonds of holy matrimony by
Rev. Wm. McDonagh. The writer was
permitted and privileged to be the
Pastor ore this devout couple and to
be associated with thein in Christian
servlce over forty years ago. They
have now reached nearly, if not quite,
four score and four years—a long
time to live in this busy, bustling and,
out. of breath age, but there are not
wanting evidences that the hand of
God has led you during all these de-
cades.
And now, a Diamond Wedding.
When we remember what it signifies,
how much time is included, it i"s a
very notable event. Think of it, two
streams of existence running in the
one and the same channel for over
half a century. You have lived to
know the blessedness of age ,and
thank God, the enjoyment of it isnot
marred by physical pain or mental
incapacity. You are not invalids or
in your dotage.- The prophet's image
of a tree planted by the rivers of
water, whose leaf never withers, has
.been verified. You are still young -
if not in fact, in heart, in sympathy
and in..hope Religion has presided
at your table, watched over your
slumbers, directed your business and
sanctified your habits, Like Abra-
ham, - you cohnmanded your children
after you, and I trust they are all
with you in the fellowship of the
church, of duty, faith and hope. 0
let us magnify the Lord and exalt his
nave together.
I will close, hoping that the remain-
ing days inay be a pathway sloping
gently and restfully toward the set-
ting sun, and lit up with the promise
tlf a more glorious sunrise amid the
enchanting beauty of the delectable
mountains, Affectionately, D. Rog-
ers."
