Major B. S. Burton and Wife
Celebrate fortieth Wedding
Anniversary
As the hand of the clock reached
half past elevetr today it marked
the fortieth wedding anniversary
of Major and Mrs. B. 8. Burton.
Just forty years ago today Mr. and
Mrs. B. 8. Burton were united in
marriage in the little city of
Bloomfield, Ky. Thirty-two years
ago they came to Texas, locating in
this city, where they have since
resided.
Today Mr. and Mrs. Burton are
celebrating the eventful affair of
forty years ago. It must indeed
be a source of pleasure to look
back over a period of forty years
of marital bliss into which is
crowded many tender thoughts
and possibly some sorrow?, of
which time, the great healer, has
softened and chastened until the
memories of them are only a sweet
pain. Forty years of companion-
ship, of love, of happiness, the vi-
cissitudes of the past forgotten in
the happiness of today.
“Uncle Burton” and his good
wife are known to nearly every
man, woman and child in Bonham
and every one that knows them
loves and respects them. “Uncle

they were all good. “A Minia-

were easily the best of the bill, in

to see. “A Miniature Circus”

“Colonel Chenoweth was a very
prominent and well-known gentle-
man and a native of Harrodsburg,
though he had not lived here for
many years. During the Civil war
he was a member of Morgan’s com
mand. He first served as captain
and was promoted to colonel and
acted as brigadier general during
the last year of the war in place of
General Lyon, which was the
highest commission issued to any
one who went from Mercer county
duriug the war. At the close of
the strife he studied law and prac-
ticed here for sometime aud repre
seuted this district for two terms
in the State senate.
“Afterwards he went to Texas,
where he became a circuit judge.
He was also put in charge of the
Confederate Home. He was first
auditor of the treasury department
under Cleveland. Two years ago
he attended the Confederate re-
union at Richmond, Va., and was
taken ill while there and was never
able to return to his home. The
local chapter of the Danghters of
the Confederacy is named in his
honor, ‘The Colouel J. Q. Cheno-
weth Chapter.’ Colonel Cheno
weth was a man of intellect as well
as a gallant soldier.
“He was of strikingly handsome
appearance, and a gentleman re
marked to the writer that when
Morgan made hi* famous raid
through Kentucky and entered
Harrodsburg, Morgan, with Colo
nel Chenoweth and Captain Gabe
Alexander, was riding at the heau
of the troops, all of them in full
regalia, and never in his life, he
said, had he seen three such splen-
did specimens of manhood. As
they passed through Harrodsburg
the Confederate women of the town
presented General Morgan’s men
with a handsome silk flag. Miss
Scotia Inscip, a beautiful girl from
Ohio, who was visiting here, made
the presentation speech, standing
on the old stone carriage steps that
are still in front of |UU- Smith’s
residence, which was then a hand-
some apartment house and hotel.
Colonel Chenoweth received the
flag and thanked    donor iu
