Bounds’celebrate 75 years of marriage

Slim and Betty Bounds celebrated their 75th wedding anniversary on Sunday, Oct. 15, at their home with a drop-in celebration with family and friends. They were married on Oct. 15, 1948, in the back of a jewelry store in Pocahontas, AR; they eloped. Betty was supposed to go to the cotton field that day, but she told her mother she couldn’t find her bonnet. So, they left without her and told her to find it and join them. Once they were gone, Slim swooped in, picked her up, and headed to Pocahontas.
