The house was handsomely decorated with yellow crysanthemums and music was furnished by Ohlsen's orchestra, which was stationed on an inclosed porch. Over four hundred guests were received, people being present from Indianapolis, Muncie, Frankfort and Lafayette. Elegant refreshments were served during the afternoon. The host and hostess, who are well preserved for their age, were warmly congratulated and were the recipients of many beautiful and costly presents. Their home is one of the most hospitable in the county and no people are held in higher esteem. ~~ John and Christena Fox Sumwalt were my 3rd great grandparents.
