BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION
Lynne, Fla, August s, 1912.


To the Editor Ocala Banner:
Wednesday. August eth, vas the
18th anniversary OF the birth Of
Grandmother" Perkins. The custom
has been for many years for the chill
dren and grandchildren to invite the
neighborhood and all who will, to
come and celebrate with them on the
21st of June and the It'll of August
the birthdays OF Father and Mother
Perkins. About two years ago the
Angel Reaper came and called old
Father Perkins 10 his reward, after
he had passed his four score years.
mother Of tifty-three, who with many
others met beneath the evergreen
oaks at the home of her oldest son,
John W. Perkins, on Wednesday, and
partook of a delicious dinner and
spent the day in social intercourse.
Very nearly all the Lynne and
Conner neighborhoods look forward
with pleasure to the celebration of
this anniversary, the only sad feature
being the declining form of her who
all meet to do honor, her hair whiten-
ed from the touch of many wintry
winds and her cheeks furroWed from
the corroding hand of time, yet bless
ed with health, strength and mind,
her single aim is to love her Master,
her children. and to set examples be-
fore them worthy of emulation when
she shall be called to meet him who
has gone before. She has been bless
ed OF God to raise a family of sons
and daughters who have made the
world better by having lived in it.
Grandchildren and friends from
Martin, Griner Farm, Silver Springs,
Ocala, oxford, Moss Bluff and Elec-
ira were her to meet with loved ones
and mingle with friends Capt J. L.
Smoak and Capt. Allan Gibson could
| not withstand the temptations, but
left their busy craft floating on the
crystal waters of the Oklawaha. and
came to get something good to eat and
mingle with friends.
Yours, for another good dinner.
