Fifty Years Wedded and a Golden Wedding Delay
A fragmented poem and notice recounts a fiftieth wedding anniversary from 1833 in Cazenovia. It humorously questions a Golden Wedding while describing gifts, mannerly restraint, and a call for friends to contribute toward a future celebration as the couple nears fifty more years. The piece blends verse with a local printing note and ends with a printing house reference.
