the little winged memories beat back
the echoes, until all had caught up
spirit OF congeniality and had entered
upon day Of contemplated pleasure.
1t was at the home of our grand father,
Mr.. Richard Willett, ST., on Dec. 80, '96,
that we met to enjoy the hospitality often
shown to us severally but seldom united
ly.
Every heart beat with rapture as he
joined the number assembled before him
and felt that his presence added one link
to chain of paternity that has many
links missing.
OF the two score and ten necessary to
form perfect union twenty-three were
all that the day could summons forth,
and we, though comparatively few, par
took OF a bounteous feast which had been
so kindly prepared by the loving hands
OF grandmother.
Our grandparents sat at their usual
places, while the four brothers, Judson,
Jesse, Dick and Jimmie, with their wives,
filed the seats that had been vacant for
so many years, and their children occu-
pied second table.
When all had partaken OF the repast
we repaired to the sitting-room where
We listened to the experiences OF our
fathers and grand father, particularly to
the experiences Of our Texan uncle who
has been in the West for tie past twelve
years. How he, in his roamings, found
the only Girl for him in the Lone Star
State, and how he happened to bring
her, as our aunt, to this the State OF her
birth. Though SHE had been a Texan
by adoption for quite a while, we are
glad to recognize in her the characteriz.

il was suggested that Roy, their five-year
old son, our Western cousin, give us his

from our Western home TO meet you on
this Xmas day. But remember, dear
grandpa and grandma, there's place for
you and me when our last Christmas
day IS are Ger, We will meet to part no

For the enjoyment OF our grand par

OF their iayorite hymns which brought
tears to the eyes OF the older ones, at the
thought OF the seven absent voices that
once had harmonic d so we'll With theirs,
