LOVERS OF FIFTY

YEARS AGO

Back To Village As Man And Wife

SEPTUAGENARIANS WED

Fifty years ago Helen and Jih were youthful lovers in the pretty Suffolk village of Wrentham, yet it was not until a few weeks ago that wedding bells rang for them.

It was, with pained astonishment that John, half a century ago, a sturdy young fellow, heard that Helen had gone to London.

-After that they rarely met, and the courtship, se ardently begun, faded. But the dreams of youth a delighted have come true, and John, grey and bent, met Helen at the altar.

In the marriage register they

were entered as:

"John Hall aged 72, widower, of Wrentham;

"Helen Reeves, aged 70, widow, of Leslie Grove, East Croydon, Sur
