Excerpt from Celebration of the Golden Wedding of Dr. And Mrs. Lowell Smith: Nuuanu Valley, Honolulu

The fiftieth anniversary of the marriage of Dr. And Mrs. Lowell Smith occurred on Monday, October 2, 1882.

Owing to the sudden and lamented death of Mr. C. T. Dillingham, the celebration, which was origin ally to have been held at the residence of Mr. B. F. Dillingham', was postponed but the worthy pair received the congratulations of their friends, at their own residence in N unanu Valley, which for forty years had been their home. It was indeed an occa sion for congratulation, not only on account of the lengthened and felicitous character of their connubial life, as vouchsafed to them by a kind and overruling Providence; but, for the useful Christian work they had been enabled to perform during that period, as Christian Missionaries among a benighted people. Among these to-day, no names are better known, or more revered, than those of this venerable couple whose golden wedding day has so recently transpired. The name of Kamika and Kamika wahine will long remain fresh, in the memories of the Hawaiian people especially, as faithful, devoted, and indus trions servants in connection with the history of Christianity in these Islands.
