she died three years later at the age OF

AN OLD BIBLE,

George w. Dishong Of Ayr
township handed us last Satur-
day, an old bible that accidentally
fell into his possession few
years ago. 1t was printed in
Philadelphia 90 years ago, and
was at one time the property of
Joseph Hynson Calder aud VIM.
A. Calder. Who the Calders are
we do not know; but the family
record, which has no doubt been
lost to the family, is in good
state of preservation. We pub
lish few of the entries
Jos. H. Calder was born May
1s, 1916.
Eliza Calder was born January
4, 1879.
William Alexander Calder, son
of JOS. and Eliza Calder was born
December 13, 1903.
James Calder died of a wound
in his shoulder in the engage
ment between the Iris and the
Trumbull, Captain Nicholson,
September 6, 1881.
Alexander Calder and Mary
Hynson were married August IL,
1762.
Just in this connection, we are
led to call attention to the matter
of family records. 1t is only
when we attempt to trace back
our ancestry that we find of what
value family records would be,
and how hard it is to get informa-
tion from them.
In addition to recording the
name of the child born, the place
of birth, and the name of the pa
rents should be entered as well.
The entry of death should al
ways state place, as well as time
of death. 1t would not require
much time to note the cause of
death, and any other items that
might, in time, become of much
interest.
1t is the duty of heads of fam
lies to preserve in some substan-
tial form the family history; and
this should be handed down along
the line of posterity. How many
families there are whose ances-
try is a blank. We owe it to the
future historian and genealogist
that we keep correctly record
of the present and pass it along.
