Shaft& Weesner
Tin Wedding at Clements
Friday, October 16, 1885 was the tenth anniversary of the wedding
of Clay Shaft and wife, nee Miss Ella Weesner. Friends and neighbors were not forgetful of the fact and at about 7 o'clock the old game
of "tin-tin" began to be played at a lively rate, and to the surprise of the recipients of the shining articles.
A bountiful supper was spread, consisting of everything that county wives know best how to prepare and all went as merry as it did ten years ago when the blushing couple were first made man and wife.
Among the guest from abroad were Mr and Mrs John Henning and Mrs Keller of Emporia. Mr and Mrs Weesner and A. Balentine of Safford; and Mr Jon Murphy of Indian Territory.
