Because of the bad weather and the almost impassable condition of the roads it hardly expected that many would able to respond to the invitations sent out, but notwithstanding the heavy down pour a goodly company gathered to offer their best wishes and many beautiful gifts. Two large tables were spread in the spacious dining room, seating some 32 persons, who greatly enjoyed the good things provided. A salient feature of the evening was the singing of old time songs while Mrs. Winblad and Mr. Stair, obliged at the piano. The guests had the pleasure of meeting Mr. and Mrs. Lattin's daughters, Mrs. Poole and Mrs. Winblad, of New York, who came down specially for the occasion. The rooms were beautifully decorated with palms, ferns, crotons and flowers. Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. Paysant, Mr. and Mrs. Gooravin, Mrs. Sophie Hamert and daughter, Mrs. Rice, Miss Lou Davis, Mr. and Mrs. James Hill, Mrs. Weigriff, Mrs. Conley, Mr. Star Keller, the Misses Bertha and Ella Keller, Mr. Grosvenor, Mrs. Poole, Mrs. Winblad, her son Earl, Mr. and Mrs. Pomeroy and her children, Mabel and Mary, Gilbert Herman, Mr. and Mrs. Jarvis Lattin and Mr. Stair. In the early morning hours the party broke up, all, before departing, wishing their host and hostess many more years of happy married life."
