IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO
From the Files of
The Anaheim Gazette
By MRS HENRY KUCHEL
75 Years Ago ...
October 27, 1880
The ceremony which for better or worse, linked the lives and fortunes of Hippoyte Cahen and Miss A. A. Meyerholz took place at the residence of the bride's parents on Saturday night. The bride was dressed with exquisite taste and if she ever looked fairer or happier than during the moment preceding the utterances of the fateful words by the officiating Judge, it was when receiving the warm and cordial congratulations of her relatives and few intimate friends who were present. Judge Bailey prefaced the stereotyped formula of the marriage ceremony with a few apt and well chosen words of counsel and advice, in which he spoke of the esteem in which the bride and groom were held and augured the happiest results from the union. The banquet which followed the marriage ceremony was so tempting that the guests lingered at the table until a late hour, and even then there was a reluctant parting, for it seems a grievous sin to leave such a quantity of superb cookery untasted. Mr. and Mrs. Cahen are now comfortably settled in their residence on Lemon street, and were the recipients of a serenade from the Anaheim Brass Band on Monday night. We hope—the present to say that it is the belief of all the farmers who have grown the cane this year that a veritable agricultural bonanza has been struck at last.
Dr. Geo. H. Bailey, who has been sojourning in the mountains for a week or two, brought us a tarantula story which beats anything we have yet recorded regarding these animals. A man and his wife who recently settled upon some land between the Chi-no rancho and the hills told the doctor that they had killed seven hundred and fifty tarantulas in one month. The wife killed forty in the yard in a few minutes one evening. (Dr. Bailey, a pioneer Anaheim physician, was the father-in-law of the Old Time Editor).
A meeting will be held at Metz hall this evening to organize a "Garfield and Arthur" club. All Republicans are invited to attend and help along the good work.
Mr. Alexander Gardiner of Orangethorpe left for Globe, Arizona Territory, on Thursday. His family will remain here.
Capt. H. Wiede has bought eighty acres of land in the Canyon de Santa Ana ranch about seventy-five miles northwest of San Diego.

The banquet which followed the marriage ceremony was so tempting that the guests lingered at the table until a late hour, and even then there was a reluctant parting, for it seems a grievous sin to leave such a quantity of superb cookery untasted. Mr. and Mrs. Cahen are now comfortably settled in their residence on Lemon street, and were the recipients of a serenade from the Anaheim Brass Band on Monday night. We hope—and in so doing we but echo the wish of their legion of friends—that the young couple will realize all their dreams of happiness and that the future has in store for them nothing but what will make life a pleasure and the thoughts of their marriage day one of the pleasantest of memories.
Mrs. F. A. Gates of Garden Grove has our thanks for a can of sorghum syrup made from cane grown by him this year. Mr. Gates has given us some facts in regard to this industry which we will present to our readers at some length next week. Suffice it for hall this evening to organize a "Garfield and Arthur" club. All Republicans are invited to attend and help along the good work.
Mr. Alexander Gardiner of Orangethorpe left for Globe, Arizona Territory, on Thursday. His family will remain here.
Capt. H. Wiede has bought eighty acres of land in the Canyon de Santa Ana rancho, about seven miles east of Anaheim and has therefore become a permanent resident. There are six acres remaining of old bearing vine so his purchase, besides numerous fruit trees, and he will plant a large vineyard this coming season. We bid the captain a welcome to our valley and hope he will enjoy all prosperity.
At a meeting of the Directors of the Anaheim Water Company on Saturday, Mr. John P. Zeyn was appointed a member of the Board, vice Theo Reiser resigned, Mr. Dreyfus was elected president of the company and Mr. Har
