Mr. and Mrs. Ruben Dettman of rural Dorchester observed their 40th Wedding Anniversary at a surprise party at the Mayville Town Hall on Saturday, October 17, 1970. Their children and grandchildren hosted the event.

They are: LeRoy of Rio, Mrs. Roland (Betty) Haufe, town of Mayville, Mrs. Dennis (Janet) Potocnik, Medford, and Dennis, town of Holton. Also present were five of the honored couple's thirteen grandchildren.
