When this estate was sold shortly
after Jefferson's death to James M.

is also evident that assessment for
taxation is as wild in Virginia as else

owner to be worth $1,000,000. although
he will sell for half is assessed for
less than $150,000.

A Surprise party was given Wednes-
day evening, Oct. IA, to John L. How
ard at the home of Mir and Mrs. w.
E. Overlook, where Mr. Howard has
hYed for the past nine years, when
some OF his High school mates and
his Sunday school class and few in
Vited friends gathered to help him cell
citrate his 21st birthday. 1t was a
complete surprise to him, for Miss Jo-
sephine Overlook, Mr. Overlook S
cousin, who is teaching at Razorvilie,
was made the scapegoat of the occa-
sion. She was invited to stay all night
and SO of course came directly from
school so as to have a good long eve-
ming. Mr.. overlook helped do the
chores and Miss Overlook, who is an
expert musician, was making loud
music on the organ after supper and
all were eagerly listening, when in
marched a lot of young ladies with
Miss Venetta Farrar at the head and
by the time John was little recov-
cred from this surprise in marched as
many more young men with Charles
Storer in the lead. Miss Venetta Far
rar and Miss Gladys Fulsome soon got
busy making fudge of very superior
quality. Then all gathered around the
table and a big Birthday cake was I'M
covered, with q candles in rose can
dlesticks upon it. These were lighted
and The two original poems written for
the occasion were read, one by Rev.
E. S. Ufford of Rockland and one by
Bernard S. Pitman of Appleton, both
intimate friends of Mr.. Howard. Then
the cake was cut and more supproses
were instore. One found in his piece a
ring, another a piece of money and
still another a wish-bone. They also
quoted conundrums and then all re-
paired to the lawn, where Mr.. Over
lock sent up four paper balloons, one
being 10 feet tall. All very reluctantly
left at a very late hour, wishing Mr.
Howard many happy returns of the
day. Many beautiful and useful pres
ents were given.
