Bowman, the shoe man, came over to the Herald office and looking quite young, told U3 Tuesday, June 14, would be his FIFTIETH wedding anniversary. Yes, siree, married for fifty years all to the same woman. That’s the way to talk.Mr. Bowman, however, failed to celebrate, as his good wife has been in Borger w’ith a daughter for several days. Anyway, he remembered the day without her assistance, and that means quite a bit for a man.Grandpa Bowman says he and his wife were united in marriage inMcKinney, Texas, June 14, 1882. They have become parents of ten children and all are living except one son who was killed by an electric current. Six girls and three sons live.Now don’t anybody think A. A. Bowman is old. He and his w'ife are the same age and not quite seventy, hale and hearty.
