Golden Wedding. — The golden wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Beswick Bulmer was celebrated on the 26th March at the Belle Vue Hall, Tuncurry.

Previous to the ball being opened, Mr. Bulmer was presented with a case of silver-mounted pipes, and Mrs. Bulmer with a gold brooch, by local friends, as mementos of the occasion. Several useful presents were also sent from their relatives in Sydney, who were unavoidably prevented from attending. At midnight a sumptuous repast was laid on tho stage, to which fuil justice was done, and dancing then continued until the "wee sina' hours," one and all appearing to have thoroughly enjoyed them selves. Mr. Beswick Bulmer came to the Manning River some 60 years ago and has resided in various parts of the district. He is 77 years of age, and Mrs. Bulmer some years younger. They are both hale and hearty, and it is to be hoped they may yet enjoy many years of happiness. [2]
