GOLDEN WEDDING
Will Be Celebrated To-Morrow With
Another Ceremony

Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Kemper, living at No. 4 Kentucky avenue, Covington will celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of their marriage at the Mother of God Church tomorrow morning. A reception and a duplicate of the marriage ceremony, performed in the same church half a century ago, will be the features of the celebration.
The couple were born in Alphouse, Germany, and were sweethearts before the two families came to America. Both moved to Cincinnati, and the courtship, started in the old country, was renewed in this city. They secured a residence in Covington, and have lived there ever since. They had 10 children of whom five are living--Mrs. Mary Kornerman [sic], Mrs. George Kohorst, Joseph, Henry and William Kemper, all engaged in business in Covington.
Mr. Kemper is 79 years of age, and his wife is eight years younger. They are both in good health.
