Ills Eighty. Fifth Birthday.


eighty-fith birthday yesterday. A
few invited guests partook of a
sumptious dinner at Mr.. Miller's
beautiful home near town, and
none seemed to enjoy the good
things more than the old gentle-
man himself. Mr.. Miller is one
of the few old residents left with
us. He is a grandson of William
Clendenin, who fought in the bat
tie of Point Pleasant, in 1774, and
he saw Lafayette when he stopped
-at Gallipolis on his way to WASH
ington.
Mr.. Miller was the first captain
of the steamboat Gallipolis, built
at Gallipolis, Ohio, in 1881; was
Sheriff of Mason County twelve
years, and president of our bank
for twenty-five years. Retiring
from the Merchants National
Bank as its president in 1879, he
sought the quietude of his home
on his farm, near town: where he
is always glad to meet his friends,
and very much enjoys relating his
early struggles in life, when thrown
upon his own resources. May he
live to celebrate many more birth
days, and round up the century.

Popular Monthly's Great Lee Articles.
There is no American, living OF
dead, North or South, who stood
nearer the hearts of the people, OF
whose memory is held more sacred
affection, than General Robert Il.
Lee. All on this side of the wiped
out but never-to- be-forgotten line
feel that they know him; but there
is still much of his history and
that of his family and his ances-
tors that has never yet been told.
On this account the Register is
pleased to note the announcement
of Fr0nh Le8lie'S Popular Month
In regarding the series of notable
Lee papers that begin in the Feb
ruary issue. The first is "The
Ancestors of General Robert g..
Lee and the Times in Which They
Lived" by Mrs. Judge Roger a.
Pryor, of New York. The whole
series, beginning with the earliest
colonial times down to the present
date, will be enriched with numer-
GUS portraits and illustrations of
special interest, heretofore imprint
ed, and large speaking likeness
in water colors of General Lee.
Altogether these articles will form
a valuable addition to the history of
the great men of the nation.
