Uncle Joe Patterson.

Uncle Joe Patterson, of the Valley
House, was the recipient of some nice
presents on New Years Eve, the present
alton of which was as much surprise
as it was affecting to Mr.. Patterson The
presents were from his family and their
prove that these same qualities of mind
and heart that make Uncle Joe so emf
nently popular as a Landlord, have
also made him a worthy and respected
husband and father of a family, that he
may we'll feel proud of. The presents
consisted of fine, reclining rocking
chair, manufactured by G. Street, of Gin
cinnati, and cost $500, with ottoman +;
also, pair fine worked slippers, with case;
bronze cigar case, with cigars and light
ers; a watch guard, with gold mountings;
silk handkerchief, socks, cane, &c. The
presents were bought, or contributed, by
the children, and Mrs. Patterson. Mr.
Patterson-has eight children living, his
two oldest sons and one daughter are liv-
ing in Iowa, one daughter in Columbus,
Ohio, one at Steward Town, on the M. q
c. R. R., and three sons that are single.
The presents had been mostly pur-
chased in Columbus, and unknown to
Mr.. Patterson, had been shipped to the
Valley House, on New Years Eve. Mr..
NJ L. Vanpelt, Mr.. & Mrs. Elton, broth
er and brother-in-law and sister of Mrs,
Patterson had arrived from Hillsboro' to
spend few days in a visit with them,
and while all were at supper on that
evening, the presents had been placed in
he room, and after the meal was over,
,he family, friends, guests and attaches,
n all about 80 persons, were assembled |

music furnished by Mr.. Laird and Mr..
Rolin, at the instrument, and Mr.. Dun
gan, with violin accompaniment. Dur
ing the playing of one piece, Uncle Joe
was called in and seated, wholly uncon-
scious of what was to follow. At the
close of the piece Mr.. Vanpelt, who had
been requested to make the presentation,
stepped forward and addressed him as
follows:
Mr.. PATTERSON: The assembled guests
and friends, have called upon me to pre-
sent to you New Years gift, and with
that, an address, conveying, in my own
language, the feelings and sentiments
that have prompted the donor of these
beautiful presents, your children, your
family and your friends, to you. their
worthy parent and father, and recipient
of these. This duty is as embarrassing
as it is pleasant, for I have never been
called upon before to make formal ad-
dress or speech to brother-in-law. Now
if it was to be made to a mother-in.la
and there had been an unpleasantness in
the family, can imagine, that 1 might
extemporize speech with little or no
embarrassment; and our own relations
have been SO very intimate, that the idea
OF an address to you the intimation of
which L had but few moments ago, pre-
sented first, the novel, if not the ridicu-
lous aspect.
But when look around upon these
assembled guests, of friends, family and
relatives, and when l remember the many
years of our very pleasant relations, and
when 1 look back few years in the past,
and remember, your then united family,
existing in that most enduring relations
of home, of father, mother, brothers, and
sisters; when | remember this, l can we'll
realize what this moment is to your heart
A moment fraught with the richest bless
ings, and the happiest emotions that can
only come to one like yourself, after a
long life of pure domestic rectitude, and
parental duty; and now, though time
and events have separated yourself and
those loved ones, though miles of distance
intervenes between those you love, those
same sacred ties Of kindred and affection
exists, and they remember that kind in
dulgent father, when he tenderly and
lovingly cared for them in their youth,
and remember him by presenting to you
these beautiful and costly presents, with
greetings for the coming New Year. And
knowing, as l do, the tender relations
existing in your family as we'll as know
your own worthingness, beg of you, in
their name and in their behalf, to accept
them, assured that your feelings will tell
you they have been prompted by the
most enduring sentiments of filiaI love
and respect, and that your own heart, if
not your lips, will respond with the same
holy affections.
Mr.. Patterson was deeply affected, as

and affection from his children. X
