The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1914-08-29

It present consists OF John Henry
Fisher Of South .Newfane and his
laughter, Mrs. Ira NJ. Ingram, with
whom he lives on the old homestead,
and seven sons, all of within, with Mrs.
Ingram attended the reunion with their
families A remarkable circumstance
IS that the whole family had not been
together in over - years, and no death
in the family has taken place since the
departure, about that number of years
ago. of the wife and mother, Mrs. Jane
Peek Fisher, who will be remembered
bv the older residents of the town as
one of Newfane 5 most capable women,
whose sweet, Christian character and
influence not only left its mark on her
own immediate family, but on the en-
tire neighborhood as well.
Left with a large family, some of
them quite young, John Henry Fisher
heroically shouldered the responsibility |
of father and mother. and how well he |
did it is evidenced by the fact that all |
have grown up to mature manhood and
womanhoOd with high moral ideals, in
dustrious civic and Christian activities, |
and are passing these virtues along tol
their children.
Economic necessity and the limited
opportunities of Il small town COMPEL
ed the children early to scatter, and
one by one to leave the home nest, IN
til "Grandpa Fisher, as he is now
called. was left alone. Since that time
he has lived most of the time ON the
old home place, with his only daughter,
Mrs Ira Ingram. He has always de
lighted IN history and travel. and be
sides spending year with his only
win in Kansas has snant much fine
with his sons. who have been scattered
in various st.+es bu+ who are now
sa++lad in the mare aasterIv mart of the
