Mr. and Mrs. Lawton Today Celebrate 55 Years Married Life

Today is their fifty-fifth wedding anniversary, Mr. and Mrs. D.
T. Lawton of 321 Apple street, informed their friends this
morning. That is, Mr. Lawton told the news to the Scottish Rite
Masons attending the spring reunion in this city, and Mrs. Lawton
says it is true.

Married in Estherville, Emmett county, Iowa, in 1875, they came
to Medford 42 years ago and have been living here ever since.
Although they have added five years to a golden wedding
anniversary they aren't tired of matrimony in the Rogue River
valley.

Their three children also live in southern Oregon. They are Mrs.
Myrtle Forbes of Jacksonville, Mrs. Grace Pankey and Leon Lawton
of Medford.
