Ballard Family Reunion.
AUGUST 1908.

As usual, the Ballsrds had \ cloud less day for their annual gathering. The rain of the night before so damp ened the ground that the tribe was \ little slow about getting there, 50 that il was high noon before ali were there when we counted noses and found ll9 in all
 As We looked over the crowi we could but think that from the pres- ent outlook there was no danger of the tribe becoming extinct. Such lot of young, bright and healthy children. some, to ee sure, had but strain of Ballard blood. yet could claim enough to eatitle them 10 a place among them. The old original stock was only repre- sented by one-to wit, uncle Salem Ballard.
 Our chairman, on taking his seat spoke very feelinely, and with tears in his eyes, Of the absence of Uncle AL bertus Bruce and wife, who heretofore, for twenty years, have never failed to  be present, and their kind, eheerful faces and faeetioas remarks, always drew applause from all present. Their enfeehIed condition, even though the day was so propitieus, prevented their being present. The kind hearts of some al their nieces, who were present, prom pted them to do what they could and they gladly filled box with some of the choicest cuts and forwarded them by special messenger,
 There Is seemingly nothing that can produce and foster such kind and iey- ing feelings among us all as these an uual gatherings, and they are annual iy ardently looked forward to as red letter days in our calendar.

BALLARD HISTORY, 1901-ns.
 "Time and tide walt for no man. not even for Ballard. Once more old almost before we realize It we are again assembled here in Nichols Grove, at the annual reunion of our Ballard fa- mily. Ii seems that We have but clos cd our eyes and opened them, so Imi- lar k this gathering tn the one of last year. Nearly all the cousins unelcs and aunts are here to greet Us with Just as happy smile and hearty hand shake as ef yefe, Me feel in our hearts great yelling up of thankfulness to our Heavenly Father, who has dealt with Ills so well during lhe past year.
 Your Historian has endeaNored 10 keep in touch with the various Bai- lards, and believe we have the records of our additions and losses correct; but if any one can add to the report, we should be glad to have them do so.
 Biribs
 Four little people have been brought 10 the homes of our young folks by the kind stork.
 On September 10, 1907, daughter, Alice Azubah, made her first appear ance at the home of Frank and Bertha Ballard Ramsdell
 After this small girl came, the stork must have migrated, for he did not re- turn to New England, at least to the Ballard families until April 27, i9os, when he left q son, George Harvey, to George and Susan Clemence, of South bridge.
 On May 23, l9os, another girl baby came to the home Of MT. and Mrs. W.T. liam Alton. She k named Florence Marion.
 MT. and Mrs. Herbert Alton wei comed small lady guest, Lois Marsh, on July lst, 1908.
 Marriages.
 The youths and maidens of our elan seem to have inherited Puritan shy ness: and gossip has il that some Of them must get over their timidity or they must soon be dubbed "old maids, y "bachelors," etc.
 In West. Newton, April 2d, l9os, Clara Louise Carpenter, youngest daughter of Vernon and the late O. sette Ballard Carpenter, WIS united in marriage to Clarence Haskall, Of Au- burndale, Mass.
 There are a few dear faces that we know we are never to see until we cross the dark river and go to the great, glad Reunion, where there will be no more parting. We have had but three of our family taken from us during the past year.
 On Nov. 18th, 1907, AIonzo,o. Wood ard, one of our older cousins, was laid to rest aged 72.
 In southbridge, Dec. 24th, 1907, Gym thia ttemenee, aged year, months, A days, was taken ffc.a her earthly home, and those who dearly loved her sweet baoy ways, to live In the bright gardens of the angels.
