Nixdorf, Mr./Mrs. Ernest (Gold-8 Jul 1923)

On Sunday, July 8th, 1923, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Nixdorf, celebrated their golden wedding at the Gus Nixdorf home. About forty relatives and near neighbors gathered and heard them take again the vows pledged fifty years ago. Rev. Keiper read the ceremony and it was beautiful indeed.

The bride and groom were both attired in black, the only touch of color was the bride's gold crown and the groom's bouquet.

At the eventide a bounteous repast was spread and everyone had a most pleasant time.

The out of town guests were Mr. and Mrs. L. Burmeister, Milwaukee, and Mrs. John Nixdorf of Chicago.

As it is not often that a couple has the privilege of living together for such a span of years, we feel that it is a time for rejoicing and we with their many Dorchester friends offer our congratulations on this great event. Not only to the couple but to their children and children's children is this an event that will ever stand out in their memory.
