    MARK GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY

    Canajoharie - A former Amsterdam couple, Mr and Mrs Lester Abeling of 32 Wheelock St, Canajoharie, celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary yesterday afternoon with an open house gathering given by their children.

    Abeling and the former Miss Katherine Duffy, both of Amsterdam, were married Nov 10, 1914, in St Mary's Church, Amsterdam, in a double wedding ceremony, the first held in that church. Married at the same time was Abeling's brother, Fred, and the former Miss Francis Kline.

    Mr and Mrs Abeling have been residents of the Canajoharie area for the past 40 years, Mr Abeling being in the garage business most fo that time. Presently he operates a garage on West Main Street, near the Thruway entrance.

    The couple have six living children: Robert, Canajoharie; James, Palatine Bridge; Mrs Carolyn Conrad, Fort Plain RD; Carl, Palatine Bridge; Mrs Katherine Frasier, Palatine Bridge; and Thomas, Waverly. They also have 15 grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

    The couple was entertained at their home yesterday afternoon by their children, and a host of their relatives and friends called to pay tribute to the local businessman and his wife.

    There were the four generations of the family present as the couple cut a tiered wedding cake in honor of the event. They were presented with a number of gifts, flowers and cards for the occasion and Mrs. Abeling.
