?b?Nadeau Couple Celebrates Sixieth Wedding Anniver'y?/b?
Nadeau, Aug. 11 -
A tiny little great grandmother, tremulous and just a little bewildered, in her dress of white satin and her veil and orange blossoms, and the proud great grandfather, who stood smiling at her side, enjoying the bustle and excitement were the center of interest in a family gathering of over one hundred relatives Monday.
The couple was Mr. and Mrs. Telesphore Gauthier of Nadeau, residents of that community since 1881. The occasion was the sixieth anniversary of their wedding.
The anniversary celebration brought members of the family from all parts of the ensure, from as far away as New York City, New Jersey, and from any number of other places in a reunion in honor of the aged couple. Among them were children, grandchildren and great grand children of Mr. and Mrs. Gauthier whose descendants, 128 persons, number 10 children, all of whom were present, sixty-nine grandchildren and forty-nine great grandchildren.
The celebration of the anniversary itself had as its background, St. Bruno's church, which has been the parish church of the family. It opened with religious services in the morning, a selema high mass at 10 o'clock, at which the couple renewed the vows they had taken sixty years ago, in Alfred, Ontario, Canada, when Mr. Gauthier , then a young man of seventeen, took Catherine LeClaire as his bride. Rev. Father Sperlein, pastor of St. Bruno's church, was celebrant of the mass; Rev. Father Joseph Hollinger, of Hermansville, was decon; Rev. Father James Miller of Menominee, sub-decon, and Rev. Father D. Joseph Breault, of Bark River, master of ceremonies, Rev. Father Joseph Schaul, of Spalding, was in the sanctuary. The sermon, a beautiful tribute to the aged couple and their example of a happy home and family life, was delivered by the Rt. Rev. Msgr. Raymond G. Jacques of Escanaba.
Attending them at the service were Mrs. Jerry Beaudwin of Magnolia, and Napoleon Gauthier of Detroit.
?i?Anniversary Dinner?/i?
Following the service, the couple was surrounded by relatives and friends in the large church yard, where they received the congratulations of family and friends, while a group of women of the parish busied themselves with last minute details arranging the long tables in the yard for the anniversary dinner.
This was served a short time following the service. Seated at one table were Mr. and Mrs. Gauthier, their ten children and the visiting clergymen. The centerpiece of this table, a large four-layer wedding cake, iced in pink and white, made by William Barker of Manistique, one of the grandsons. Other members of the family and friends were seated at other tables, arranged near by. Cut flowers were used on all tables. The menu was delicious and was well served. In charge of preparing and serving the dinner, were Mesdames J. Larch, D. Paquette, L. Varhon, A. Fish, A. Dantine, P. Poupore, E. Dupone, O. Lawin and E. Trembly and Misses M. Sperlein, E. Poupore, G. Paquette, H. Nadeau and O. Perras.
Following the dinner Mr. and Mrs. Gauthier were presented with a purse, the gift of their family. The remainder of the afternoon was spent in visiting and receiving the congratulations of members of the community.

Nadeau Couple Celebrates Sixtieth Wedding Anniver'y
Nadeau, Aug. 11 -
A tiny little great grandmother, tremulous and just a little bewildered, in her dress of white satin and her veil and orange blossoms, and the proud great grandfather, who stood smiling at her side, enjoying the bustle and excitement were the center of interest in a family gathering of over one hundred relatives Monday.
The couple was Mr. and Mrs. Telesphore Gauthier of Nadeau, residents of that community since 1881. The occasion was the sixieth anniversary of their wedding.
The anniversary celebration brought members of the family from all parts of the ensure, from as far away as New York City, New Jersey, and from any number of other places in a reunion in honor of the aged couple. Among them were children, grandchildren and great grand children of Mr. and Mrs. Gauthier whose descendants, 128 persons, number 10 children, all of whom were present, sixty-nine grandchildren and forty-nine great grandchildren.
The celebration of the anniversary itself had as its background, St. Bruno's church, which has been the parish church of the family. It opened with religious services in the morning, a selema high mass at 10 o'clock, at which the couple renewed the vows they had taken sixty years ago, in Alfred, Ontario, Canada, when Mr. Gauthier , then a young man of seventeen, took Catherine LeClaire as his bride. Rev. Father Sperlein, pastor of St. Bruno's church, was celebrant of the mass; Rev. Father Joseph Hollinger, of Hermansville, was decon; Rev. Father James Miller of Menominee, sub-decon, and Rev. Father D. Joseph Breault, of Bark River, master of ceremonies, Rev. Father Joseph Schaul, of Spalding, was in the sanctuary. The sermon, a beautiful tribute to the aged couple and their example of a happy home and family life, was delivered by the Rt. Rev. Msgr. Raymond G. Jacques of Escanaba.
Attending them at the service were Mrs. Jerry Beaudwin of Magnolia, and Napoleon Gauthier of Detroit.
Anniversary Dinner
Following the service, the couple was surrounded by relatives and friends in the large church yard, where they received the congratulations of family and friends, while a group of women of the parish busied themselves with last minute details arranging the long tables in the yard for the anniversary dinner.
This was served a short time following the service. Seated at one table were Mr. and Mrs. Gauthier, their ten children and the visiting clergymen. The centerpiece of this table, a large four-layer wedding cake, iced in pink and white, made by William Barker of Manistique, one of the grandsons. Other members of the family and friends were seated at other tables, arranged near by. Cut flowers were used on all tables. The menu was delicious and was well served. In charge of preparing and serving the dinner, were Mesdames J. Larch, D. Paquette, L. Varhon, A. Fish, A. Dantine, P. Poupore, E. Dupone, O. Lawin and E. Trembly and Misses M. Sperlein, E. Poupore, G. Paquette, H. Nadeau and O. Perras.
Following the dinner Mr. and Mrs. Gauthier were presented with a purse, the gift of their family. The remainder of the afternoon was spent in visiting and receiving the congratulations of members of the community.
