Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Record of the Golden Wedding of Rev. George Duffield, D.D., And Isabella Graham Bethune Duffield: Celebrated by the Family at the Homestead in Detroit, September 11, 1867 Simply as a day, the 11th of September, 1867, "so cool, so calm, so bright," was absolutely perfect, and the moon being full, and rising early, the night was as perfect as the day. "It was just such a day as this," said the groom, "that we were married fifty years ago;" and those of us who knew the extent of his weather-wisdom, could trust him on this point, when we could not trust others. This morning, it is reported that father did not take his triple observation of the thermometer, barometer, and dew-point weathercock, nor take his noon walk in the garden. His various grapes and multitudinous pears must, therefore, for this once, take care of themselves. What are all the trees in the garden, compared to the "family tree," which on this occasion puts forth all its leaves and branches, and covers itself with golden fruit? Henry with Fanny, and the baby "that belongs to the family," is the only one that has not yet flown from the old nest. George and Augusta, with Sam and Maggie and Ed, are here from the prairies of Illinois. Bethune brings in Mary, and "Georgie and Thunie Duff" from Grosse Pointe. Belle and the Doctor, with Morse and Duff, Bell, and Mamie Stewart, are also on hand from the Pointe, and all in good time in spite of patients and the State Fair. Sam makes a short cut through the garden, with Addie, and George, and Dan, and Babie Bell. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
