FAMILY RE- -UNIoN.-On the 18th ;n,t
there was reunion of the Chapman

Will long be iememb bered by both parents
and children. On this occasion the pa-

and five daughters, were present. OF
these, one son and three daughters are
married, and all the bers of their
families were also present, except one
daughters husband, w. c. Given ESQ.,,

This was an interesting gathering.
made so by the family's being long sep
arated, one son, Geo. P. Chapman and
Mrs. W. Z. Given having been residents
OF California for many years. This re-
union (or rather union perhaps we should
call lt was much priced from the fact
that 1t never occurred before, all the mem
bers OF the family never having sat to-
gether beneath the parental roof at the
same time.
The parents Of this family settled in
Sterling on the farm on which they now
live some forty five years ago, and have
hewn out Of the wilderness by incessant
toll an honorable livelihood, and are now
blessed with comfortable home in which
to spend their re remaining years. That
they have lived to see all of their children
Except one who died in early childhood
soon after their arrival to Michigan) ar
rive at manhood and womanhood, and TO
see them gather around the festive board
must have been source of great gratti-
cation to them.
The party after partaking of a sumptu-
Gus dinner repaired to the parlOr, where
the time was pleasantly spent in social
conversation, music and singing. At
night-fall the friends separated, and we
can but think that all lad the silent
prayer in their hearts that they might be
spared to gather at the old homestead
again, and often too, to enjoy such reun-
ions and at last 20 be gathered at that
great reunion, where parting shall be un-
known, an unbroken family. J.w.P.
