Their Thirteenth Anniversary.
Friday last was the thirteenth anniversary of the wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Fred S. Parker, and a number of their friends concluded that a surprise would be the proper thing to celebrate the occasion. Accordingly the party assembled, to the number of twenty-five, at the residence of Mrs. Ditmar, and proceeded to the Parker residence at 9 o'clock. So closely had the arrangements been guarded, that Mr. Parker and his estimable wife were completely surprised when the party invaded their household unannounced and took possession. After greetings were exchanged the company enjoyed themselves at cards until luncheon was served, the guests not forgetting to bring a goodly supply of refreshments with them. During the evening a cut class water service was presented to Mr. and Mrs. Parker by the friends assembled, Judge Fleming making the presentation remarks, which were feelingly responded to by Mr. Parker. The guests departed at 1 o'clock after having passed a very enjoyable evening, and wishing their hosts long life and many recurrences of the pleasant occasion. Among those present were: Mr. and Mrs. John Nevers, Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Fleming, Mr. and Mrs. S. F. Alderman, Mr. and Mrs. H. Spalding, Mr. and Mrs. A. V. Snyder, Mr. and Mrs. N. H. Ingersoll, Mr. and Mrs. D. D. Smith, Mr. and Mrs. Gifford, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Forsyth, Mrs. Fannie Smith, Miss Bessie Mulrine, Miss Amy Lowey, W. S. McClenahan and Dr. J. L. Camp.
