W. H. Jenkins Reunion

Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Jenkins, on the 4th inst. had a reunion of their family, 13 sons, 3 daughters, 5 daughters-in-law, 1 son-in-law and 10 grand children at their home near Cork. All in perfect health and participated heartily in the splendid dinner prepared for the occasion. It is remarkable that this large family has never been invaded by death. The parents look to be just in the prime of life. It was a very enjoyable day to the family and neighbors present. A short and sweet thanksgiving service was conducted by Rev. Jesse Mays, which was closed by Alex Price with an earnest affecting prayer bringing joy to our hearts and tears to our eyes. D. S. G.
