In HONOR OF
Mrs. Lemuel MAYORS Sixtieth Birth.
day Anniversary.

On Wednesday, August 10th, 1892,
your correspondent had the pleasure to
be present at a very pleasant surprise
given in honor OF the sixtieth birthday
anniversary Of Mrs. Lemuel Naylor. In
order that the surprise might be more
complete, Mrs. Naylor was sent from
home on pretended errand and when
she returned she found her home filed
with her many relatives who had chosen
this mode of expressing their love and
respect for her. Mrs. MAYORS maiden
name was Sophia Albert and she was
born August 10th, 1882. She was mar
ried to Lemuel Naylor November 4th,
1854, to which marriage there has
been born seven children, two dead and
five living.
The surprise was in the usual form-a
big dinner. To say that the dinner was
good one is putting it mildly. In fact
it was real banquet such as the Naylor
and Albert families know how to pre-
pare. 1t would be but an aggravation
to the reader to mention the many good
things we had to eat, but suffice it to
say that everything that is intended to
satiate the appetite was by tender hands
prepared.
After the repast was over many and
valuable gifts were presented to Mr..
and Mrs. Naylor, who received them
with grateful hearts.
Before the guests dispersed very at.
fectionate letters were read from mem.
bers of the Albert family now living in
the west. These letters express great
attachment and affection, such as only
loving brother or fond sister can write.
This was followed by brief speeches
from VIM. Albert, DR.. A. H. Beam, Rev.
Berby, J. D. Naylor and others. The
speeches were very appropriate--all ex-
pressing sincere sympathy for Mr..
Naylor, who has been sick for long
time.
The writer will long remember this
day as one of the most enjoyable of his
life. IL will long be remembered by all
present, and especially by the esteemed
lady in whose honor the event took
place.

spargur Reunion.

''Spargur Reunion" has become a
household word among the inhabitants
Of Paint township and the mere mention
of it brings such flood of memories
that it seems impossible to speak of the
one just ended without referring to the
past.
For eighteen successive summers, on
the Saturday nearest the 10th of August
(the anniversary of the first reunion)
the beautiful grove at the eastern edge
of our village has been filed with
happy throng of men, women and
children, each one bent on having at
least one day of solid pleasure.
1t was the original intention to con.
fine the reunion to the Spargur family
alone, but after few sessions had pass
ed an edict went forth that "Whosoever
will may come" That invitation, pro-
claimed far and wide, has met with such
hearty responses that the once small
family gathering has steadily increased
until on Saturday, August Goth, the
crowd numbered about eight thousand
souls. Uncle Joe Spargur, the recogniz.
ed "head" of the reunion, was present
as usual but bodily infirmities prevented
his taking an active part in the exercises
as on former occasions, J. A. w. Spar
CUR acted as chairman and opened the
exercises at 10 d. m. with few well
chosen remarks. Rev. w. j. Baker,
pastor OF the M. f. Church, then deliv.
cred the address OF welcome in his most
happy manner and dismissed the con.
gregation until after dinner.
The children on the grounds were
happy in their enjoyment of the merry
go.round and cheerfully paid their
boarded nickels into its Golfers. Grown
up children also watched its revolutions
with eager eyes, and wishful faces told
palmer than words that their hearts
echoed the song "Make me child again
just for to-day"
The afternoon session opened with
singing and prayer and then the vast
audience was charmingly entertained
by 'extemporaneous remarks" from o.
N. Sans and 6. L. Garrett, both former
Rainsboro boys OF whom the people here
feel Justly proud. The remainder Of
the evening was spent in hand shaking
and social intercourse and no one thought
of leaving the scene until the heart.stir.
ring strain of Home Sweet Home broke
upon the ear.
Good.byes were reluctantly spoken
and twilight had gathered when the last
guests departed. The reunion of 1892
is ended and nothing remains but pleas
ant memories.
The Greenfield brass band furnished
the music and did it we'll.
Nine hundred and sixty vehicles pass.
ed the post-office going to the grove up
to two o'clock and probably one-third
as many came in to the grounds from
the east.
Every village and neighborhood for
many miles in every direction were rep.
resented. In fact, visitors were here
from other States.
Among those who remained in the
neighborhood to visit were DR.. Hettin.
ger, of Indiana, Edward Gossett, of Hi
nois, Mrs. Mary West and Reuben Spar.
CUR, of Springfield, Ellsworth Warnock
and family and Edward and Zale Davis,
of Jeffersonville, and others from points

until the evening of the 18th. Las
Vegas never does anything by halves,
however, and therefore, to keep up
the traditional reputation of the

fer statehood, press convention and
convention of civil engineers. All
four conventions were pronounced
successes.
The irrigation convention was com.

try. The delegates from abroad and
the visitors generally were treated
with that courtesy and genuine hos
pitality that has always been dis
tinguishing characteristic of the
