"A large number Of her many
friends called on Mrs. Geraldine Tay-
lor last Sunday, the occasion being the
eighty-eighth anniversary Of her birth.
Mrs. Taylor is a remarkably well-pre-
served woman for one of her advanced
age. For more than seventy years
she has been a resident of Medina,
nearly all of which time her home was
in the same house, 267 South Court
street. Her memory is unusually
keen and she delights in recounting lo-
cal events that occurred during her
early days in Medina. The Sentinel
wishes Mrs. Taylor many more ami
versaries.
Relatives and friends, numbering
twenty-five or more, gathered at the
home of Sheriff Gehman on Tuesday
Of this week, in honor Of the eighty
/ fifth anniversary Of the birth Of his

the relatives present besides the i'm
! mediate family, were Mrs. Gehman's
sister, Mrs. Eli Roshon Of Montville
and the latter's daughters, Mrs. VIM.
Hosmer of Seville and Mrs. Chas. Ro-
shon. Mrs. Gehman enjoys excellent
health and is as spry as many women
Of half her age. The Sentinel con-

sition, to his already large collection
of curios, of grandfather" clock,
over eight feet high, which gives the
calendar months and days of the
month, also the changes Of moon. Mr..

linen.
/ 1t is house-cleaning time and peo-
pie often consign the magazines in
the attic to the paper-rag-man. The
Sylvester Libroary would be very
glad to get complete years of almost
any good periodical. They are val
liable for reference. 1t could give
broken years in exchange, but would
be glad to get unbroken files Of the
same.
Miss Wolcott of Medina recently
presented the Sylvester Library with d
handsomely framed picture Of the
presidents, up to date, for which the
library officials are very thankful.
