Imagine being away from town 65 years and still takes the hometown paper! We neyer saw a woman o! ber years mO bright, aient and a mind as keen as a nazon as she reminisced about the good old days wben she iived here.

Naturally we wanted to get some in!qrmation about the Diamond Wedding, although it took place four months ago, to pass on to our readers. The celebration was somewhat o! a surprise as several carloads o! old friends came from Brant- ford, as well as many neigh- hors called to offer congratula- tions. Among messages receiv- cd wap a cable from Queen Elizabeth's private secrctary, telegram from Prime Minister St. Laurent and a beautiful scrol !rom Hon. Arthur Welsh, Ontario Provincial Secretary.

Four Generations in Attendance Christening at St. John's Church An event o! considerable in- terest in Bowmanville was the cbnistening on Sunday, October ylOth, in St. John's Anglican yChunch o! Elizabeth Ann Etcher. Four generations were present at tbis eVent. The baby's moth- en is Mrs. Gladys Etchen, and ber cfather is Artbur Etcher, o! High 9Street; the grandmotber, Mrs. 1Benny King, o! Elgin Street, and st h e great-grandmothen, Mrs. -JQhn Poolton, Elgin St., were tpresent. Elizabeth Ann Etcber wore a christening robe that was used by ber grandmotber. Elizabeth Ann Poolton (Mrs. King) over bal! a century ago. The gown was puncbased in Willington Quay, Northumberland, Englànd, in 1896, and was brought to Bowmanville 43 .years ago. Since that time, it bas been used by at least 25 relatives o! its ownen, Mns. King. Another link with the past Is a silver spoon which was given to the baby recently by ber gneat-grandmothen, Mrs. Isabella Poolton. In this spoon are teetb marks of Mrs. #Poolton's great- grand! ather. Presuming that the original owncrs wenc the parents, o! the child whose teeth- marks are in the spoon, Eliza- beth Ann is then their great- great-great-great-great grand- daughter. Elizabeth Ann Etcher, to her family, is Elizabeth Ann the !ourth. Three o! the four Eliza- beth Anns werc present at the chnistening. The one who was not present was Elizabeth Ann McPbail <Mrs. William Poolton). Present were Mrs. Poolton's daughter, Elizabeth Ann (Mrs. George Graham, Sr.), ber grand- daugbter, Elizabeth Ann (Mrs. Ben. King), who is a niece o! Mrs. Graham. and o! course, Elizabeth Ann Etcher, great- great grand-daughtcr. Among those present were Mn. and Mrs. Jack Poolton, the baby's great grandparents, and Mn. and Mns.
