Timmins, Midland ave., was the scene of an enjoyable event on Wednesday of last week 'when a number of intimate friends and relatives gathered to extend congratulationsto Mr. and Mrs. Timmins, the bride 11 and groom of half a century ago.On the fifteenth day of July, 1859, Thomas Timmins and Martha Johnston were united in marriage at Manvers, Durham, by Rev. D. D. Rolstane. The bride was supported by Sarah Fallis and the groota by Christopher Chittick, who also entered into a marriage contract some time later and are now living at Lindsay.Following their marriage Mr. and Mrs, Timmins settled in Janetville, wliere they lived for about 22 years, when they removed to Midland, where they have lived almost continuously since with the exception o nine years 'spent in Lindsay and Pe-terboro. In all eight children were born to them, four boys and four girls, five of whom hre still alive —| Mrs. Pethic, of Peterboro, Robt. J. of Calgary, for years furniture dealer and undertaker in Midland; Miss Lilly, at home, H. Stanley in Winnipeg and Mrs Lane of Verigen, Sask. all of whom were in attendance at this anniversary with the exception of R. J. of Calgary. jDuring their long life Mr. and Mrs Timmins have be^n blessed with fair, ly good health, which is one of the greatest of God’s good gifts. Mr. and Mrs. Timmins have reached the allotted span of life, but are still quite smart and active, and from appearances will doubtless pass the j four scoi^e mark before the call comes to step up higher.We extend congratulations to the aged couple and wish them many more years of companionship in this life and a grand reunion with all their family in the life beyond.
