Their Golden Wedding.
Fifty years ago yesterday Sir. and
Sirs. John Kries, of 315 South Ninth
street, were united In marriage in
Wurtsfleld. Germany, by tho Rev. John
Hand, of St. Anno church, and yester
day morning they were re-united by
the Rev. F. A. Flicker, at St. John's
German Catholic church, South Slain
avenue and Luzerne street, In the pres
ence of their six children, twenty-eight
grandchildren and two great grandchll-dron.
Following the second marriage cere-.
mony, the aged couple, their relatives
and friends repaired to the family homo
on South Ninth street, where they spent
the day and evening in feasting and
enjoyment. Sir. and Mrs. Kries were
kept busy all day long receiving the
congratulations and well wishes of
their friends nnd neighbors, who called
on them In largo numbers,
The couple came to America In IS.",
during the panic, and existing condi
tions wore such at that time that Sir.
Kries found much difllculty in securing
employment. Only live buildings were
then located on what is now Lackawan
na avenue, one of which, he says, was
a "soup house" on the present site of
the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern passenger station. The others were
the German Drug store, the Wyoming
house, the Towksbury house and Col
onel Scranton's residence.
Sir. Kries found employment at Rob
inson's tannery in Wayne county,
whore he worked for two years for lit
tle or no wages, and only received in
return food and clothing and shelter.
Today he Is 76 years of age, and his
wife Is 70, and neither of them look
to be over 50. Both are well preserved,
and he attributes his longevity to his
abstemious habits, having refrained
from the use of tobacco and liquor
nearly all his life.
He is a carpenter and cabinet maker
by trade, and helped to build the pres
ent Bellevue breaker, and spent twenty
six years In the employ of tho Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western com
pany. At the age of 60 years, he re
tired, and has since lived on his income
from rentals. When The Tribune cor-
