A very happy occasion occurred last Saturday evening, October 21, when the golden wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. George Strong, of this village, was celebrated at their present home, the Lowman Homestead.  Returning from a visit with a daughter in Treadwell in the early evening, they found nearly 100 of their old friends, relatives and neighbors assembled to great them.  It was a complete surprise.  As they entered the house, they were greeted by strains of Mendelssohn's Wedding March.  Soon the bride and groom took their places to receive the congratulations of their friends.  Flowers in abundance and other beautiful gifts were presented to them.  Frank Banner, of Madison, Wis., a brother of Mrs. Strong, who stood as best man at the wedding fifty years ago, was present.  It was their first meeting in ten years.  One of the happy events of this occasion was the presence of all their seven children.  These were:  William Strong and family, of Virginia; Lewis Strong and family, of Towanda, Pa.; Mr. and Mrs. Kueneneman, of Tredwell;  Frank Strong and family, of Binghamton; Lloyd Strong and family, of West Bainbridge; and Miss Alice Strong, of Bainbridge.  The dining room was most attractively decorated with autumn leaves, yellow roses and yellow chrysanthemums.  A beautiful wedding cake was brought from Binghamton by Mr. Frank Strong and occupied the place of honor on the table.  Delicious refreshments were served by the guests. It was a most happy and delightful anniversary and will long be remembered by all who were present.  [Bainbridge News & Republican, Oct. 26, 1933]
