H., EttUirprite and give It in full, as it may not prove uninteresting to our readers: The golden wedding of Mr. G. G. Pag- and wife was celebrated at their residence in cambridgeport, Mas*., 01 the evening of November lfltli. Mr. Page was horn in Dorc lester, N. H.. Nov. 28. 1807. Mrs. Page »*as born In Hebron, N. Hampshire. April 6th, 180Q. At the age of seven years he wont to flehro" and made his home with Isaac Crosby ou Tenny Hill for six years, and then lived- a year with Samuel Brown in Bridgewater. At the age ot seventeen he walked to Brighton ami found employment at farming. One year later he went to Cambridge, where he found employment, and re­ mained eight years. He then went to Weiitworth. N. H.. and worked on a farm nine yeors. In 1*44 he returned to Boston and purchased! a piece of land in Cambridgeport. and upon this property he erected a small frame building for the manufacture of boxes using a horse to furnish the power to run the machinery. Soon steam power took the place of horse power, and progress ita« been mude in every dS- rectonof box manufacture. Twice Mr. Page's buildings have been laid in ruin by fire and twice rebuilt, and to­ day the-large brick structure stands as a monument of his persevering indus­ try. Ou Nov. 15th 183-2, Mr. Page wa» married in Charlestown. Mass.. by Rev. Mr. Everett, to the ladr now his devo­ ted wife. The event of the Afty gold­ en year® was celebrated by a gather- ing of their children and grandchil­ dren. and to the surprise and joy of all Ir. Wesley Ladd. the only brother of ilr*.

At 7 o'clock the company gathered around the well filled tables. wh»*re all seemed golden and. iiappv- After su >p<*r tli" worthy couple were ushered into the parlor, where they fomiii some beautiful presents await­ ing rliem--tokens of children's and grandchildren's love and esteem. When.the time arrived'for the good­ byes to he spoken, each felt It was an evening long to he remembered--a gol leu link added to .memory** chain. Mr. I add infoi m* us that the occa­ sion was a very enjovahle one to him. and will long he remembered as one of the green spots in his declining years. From the above account it will be seen that the fifty years had not beer, pass­ ed by Mr. and Mrs. Page without the usual vicisitudes 'of Jife. but yet the}' had. by a persevering and straight­ forward course arrived at their fiftieth anniversary witli little to regret, ami many, thing® to he thankful for.

No question was asked what was to bs done with the stoves, as it was of course .known' that they were bought to bo sold. They Were told and we became the purchaser.
