Quincy. ILL.,, January 24-Leonard
Roeder today celebrated the 10th an
nivcrsary OF his birth. and although
totally blind. he still retains. to re-
markable degree, his vigor and
strength. and is able to wait on him
self almost entirely.
Mr.. Roeder recalls two distinct wars.
one which involved most Of the nations
Of Europe and in which he actively
participated at Waterloo at the age Of
fifteen. and the other the civil strife in
America. which he watched with in
terest as a man Of sixty.
Coming from Germany in 1913. Mr.
Roeder settled in Quincy. where he was
married the following year to a Miss
Dame. Mrs. Louise Burman Of this
city. now over eighty years Of age. is
the only resident remaining in Quincy
who Is known to have witnessed the
marriage. Mr.. Roeder's wife died sew
eral years ago. and since then he has
been living at the home Of his adopted
daughter. Mrs. John P. Liebig.
Although Mr.. Roeder still goes about
the house with considerable freedom,
he spends most Of the time in his room.
He still enjoys the companionship of
the family. and his old friends. but
since he has become blind he cares less
for the presence Of strangers. The
centenarian subsists chiefly on a diet
Of crackers and milk.
