CARL w. ACKERMAN

An active life that spans ninty-nine
years of the most eventful ones in the
history of the world, is the unusual
distinction of Walter Tatton Carpen-
ter who quietly celebrated his ninty-
ninth anniversary Saturday.
Mr.. Carpenter is the oldest living
resident of Wayne county. pioneer
Friend, and has been a member of the
republican party since it's organiza-
ton. He recalls with the greatest in
terest the battle of WATERLOO; the pro-
mitigation of the Monroe Doctrine;
the Inauguration of Andrew Jackson,
the fifth president of the United
States, and the meteorological shower
of 1888 He also remembers his first
visit to Richmond in 1887, when he
attended the Indiana Yearly Meeting
of Friends.
Has Seen an Airship.
When the representative of the Pal
IdQluul Sd" ulul dI Ills uOuuc IuIo
week, Richmond's grand old man re-
called the invention of the telegraph
and telephone and the experiments of
Fulton with his steam boat on the
Hudson, where he was born. But Mr..
Carpenter has not only lived in the
past but lives in the present. He has
ridden in automobiles, manufactured
by his grandsons, conversed over the
telephone and witnessed the flight of
airships. Few lives if any span such
an eventful career.
Mr.. Carpenter, although confined to
his home on the National road-a
road that was built when he was a
boy-is in good health. He has suf-
fered for many years with bronchitis
but his present condition is the best
that could be expected for a man of
his advanced years. Although grey
haired and hard of hearing. he talks
fluently of past history and present
events.
When Walter r. Carpenter was
born at Schenectady, N. Y, January
1, 1911, Richmond was not on the
map. The court house was just being
built at Salisbury, Ind, and at that
time the Wayne county court was
held in the woods. south of the city,
on the farm of Richard Rue. At that
time the fourth president of the Unit
ed States had been in office but two
years. The residence of Mr.. Carpen-
ter in New York state lasted but two
and one half years, for in 1913 his
father and his small family moved to
Clinton county, Ohio.
When Napoleon Fought.
While he was growing up on his
fathers farm in Clinton county, Napo-
leon was fighting the English in
France. While in Clinton county he
received his first education, but it was
very meager. Three months during
the winter he attended the little log
school house, the other nine months
of each year he spent on the farm.
After short stay in Clinton county
his father died, when but forty-five
years of age.
In speaking of this event Mr.. Car
penter's son, Charles G. Carpenter
said that his mother had frequently
told him, that the doctors at that time
