Family
Reunion at Samuel Latta's
At
this season of the year there are banquets and social events of unusual
importance, but there has nothing occurred this holiday season more enjoyable than the family reunion held
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Latta of Moose Ridge, on Christmas Day, when
their children and grandchildren were all home to spend Christmas under the
parental roof and family fireside.
Mr.
and Mrs. Latta are pioneers in whom all their acquaintances have full
confidence and entertain a high respect.
The
pleasure of assembling at such a home and the satisfaction experienced by the
old folks as they entertained an honorable and intelligent family, makes such a
gathering almost sacred.
The
assemblage numbered 22, and at high 12 all sat down to a fine dinner, well
prepared for the occasion.
The afternoon was spent in a
social manner and the children were treated to oranges, bananas, nuts and
candy.
