On Monday evening, December 28, a pleasant company of relatives and friends gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Melvin Yale to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their wedding day.  Mr. and Mrs. Yale having been inveigled from their home, the company assembled early in the evening to await their return.  The surprise was most complete and joyous.  After a season of congratulation and good wishes, Rev. L.B. Yale, the minister who officiated on that first wedding day, 20 years ago, stood once again before them, with words of sincere pleasure for their happy useful married life.  Rev. G.A. Place responded in behalf of the groom.  Then followed the "Twenties Anniversary" by Miss Anna E. Hidley, and as a token of deep respect, words of kindly recommendation by D.A. Gilbert, Mr. Yale's employee.  The refreshments served later were excellent.  The presents, tokens of the affection with which Mr. and Mrs. Yale are regarded, were elegant.  We could not desire to attend a happier gathering and would wish the wedded pair all future joy.  [Compiler note:  Melvin Yale and Polly Pearsall were married 28 Dec. 1865]
