Jodhua LaRose of Clay Township Celebrate Their GoldenWedding.Pottu angerthat I and tl cold hTheYesterday, November 11,1897, marked fifty years in the married history of Mr. and Mrs. Joshua LaBoae, and thehappy occasion was modestly and fittingly celebrated at their home in Clay township.Some fifty of their friends and relatives assembled at 10 o^clock, and about 1 o’clock enjoyed a most elegant dinner. The day was spent in a most pleasing manner, reminiscences of the early coon hunt, the old busking bee, and the famous red ear, all of which, and much more, entered into the lives of the boys and girls of the “airly days.” And along in the evening, when the sun hung low in the prairied west, with kind words and staunch good-byes, these invited guests took their ways to their several homes.Joshua LaBose, the second of the four children of Philip J. and Mary (Scherer) LaRose, that grew to their majority, was born October 31, 1823, in Preble county, Ohio, and in 1834 came with bis parents to Clay township, settling on the farm which be has occupied during all these sixty-three years, and on which his father died March 27, 1870, aged 91 years, 1 month and 11 days. His mother died in April, 1845, aged 59 years, 1 month and 1 day. The family comes from the sturdy Huguenots.On November 11, 1847—just a half century yesterday—Mr. LaRose was married to Amanda Jones of Bethlehem township. They had three children, Alice Ann, wife of Jesse Swi-gart, who in turn have had eleven cblldreu, ten living, among them three pairs of twins; Dr. Noah J. LaRose of Lucerne, father of four children, three living; and Mrs. Dora Skinner, deceased.
