Baker, who has served as pastor of churches in North Dakota for 40 years, and Mrs. Baker, 807 Fourth St., will celebrate their golden wedding‘ anniversary at their home here Thanksgiving day. { Present for the occasion will be their two children, Mrs. M. E. Todd, Minneapolis, and Lyman Baker, 820 | Mandan St., deputy state tax commis- sioner together with his wife and family. Mrs. Todd will arrive this evening. Rev. Baker was married to Miss Margaret E. Sim, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Sim of Peabody, Mass., at her home 50 years ago on ‘Thanksgiv- ing day, which that year fell on Nov. 30. Throughout the years they have followed the custom of celebrating j their wedding anniversary on Thanks- giving day, De:cended from a family of Ameri- gan patriots, Rev. Baker’s great-great- great-great-grandfather was William Baker, born in Boston, in 1655. His great-great grandfather fought in the battle of Lexington and a great-great { uncle in the battle of Bunker Hill. John Locke,.his maternal great-great grandfather, Served with the New Hampshire troops in the Revolution- ary War. Famed Minister Ancestor Mrs. Baker also is a descendant of hardy Puritan stock. The famous preacher of the Pilgrims, John Rob- inson, who accompanied them on their | flight to Holland, was her ancestor. Although he never came to America, his son, Isaac, came over on the next | boat after the Mayflower, landing at | Barnstable, Cape Cod, and later set- tling at Lynn, Mass. Rev. Baker, who will be 79 years of age next April 9, and looks 10 years younger, was born at South Boston, the son of Joseph and Elizabeth Baker. He attended the grade schools and was graduated from English high school, Boston, in 1870. Upon graduation he was offered a scholarship in the Massachusetts In- stitute of Technology, but preferring to go to work entered the office of Henry W. Wilson, a civil engineer, where he remained for five years. He had intended to enter Boston Uni- versity in 1876 to enroll for a the- ological course, but a serious illness with brain fever made this plan im- possible. That same year he moved to Pea: body, Mass., and engaged in the grain business in an effort to regain his health. During this time he renewed his interest in religious work and held tae, Positions in the church at Pea- ly. One year following their marriage in 1882, Rev. and Mrs. Baker moved } to a farm at Methuen, Mass., where they supplied milk to a route of 200 customers and built up a spring water business of 800 customers. Here also! he entered heartily into church work, In December, 1890, through the soli- citation of Rev. A. McGregor, a for- mer pastor, Rev. Baker was induced to come to North Dakota and was given a Methodist charge at Emer- ado, leaving his family at Methuen until his status as a pastor was fixed. Work Was Arduous ‘The work was arduous, Rev. Baker | recalls, for in addition to preaching two sermons a day, sometimes in out- | lying districts, he also had much studying to do in order to be admitted | to the ministry. Much to his delight he subsequently passed the four-year examinations with grades of 90 to 95. His next pastorate after Emerado ‘was Pembina, where he remained un- til 1896, with a brief trip east to settle up an estate. That same year he} moved to Forest River with his fam-! ily, where he remained as pastor of | the Methodist church for two years. From Forest River, he went to the Methodist church in Wahpeton, a pas- torate he held for five years. Desiring | to remain there for the schools, Rev. Baker accepted pastorates in Wynd- mere and Barney, but lived in Wah- | peton. At this time he again took up| his old profession of civil engineering, serving as city engineer at Wahpeton | and Breckenridge and drainage engi- neer of Richland county. ‘The family remaineti at Wahpeton | until June, 1916, when Rev. Baker be- | came pastor of the Congregational | church at Amenia, a position he held for five years. He next accepted a call to the Con- gregational church at: Hancock, Min) where he served as pastor until his! retirement from the ministry Nov. 1929, They came to Bismarck in 1930.
