P. w. SKEMP REACHES
HIS DIST MILESTONE.

Wednesday was the ninety first
birthday anniversary of Mr. P W.
Skemp, whose home is at Rutledge,
across the river from this city on the
Wisconsin side. Mr.. Skemp is here
on a visit with his sons, the Messrs.
Skemp and daughter, Mrs. ]. E. He'd
ley, and the ninety-one years have ap-
parently left little trace on the hale
and hearty man.
TCpsam, England, was Mr. Skemp's
birthplace and he came to Dubuque in
1853. For years he was member Of
the dry goods firm of Ackley, Skemp
& AdinselI. After giving up business
he engaged in farming and for years
has conducted his farm near here.
While not as active as formerly,
Mr.. Skemp is by no means retired
farmer and still cares for his garden.
A simple, busy life is perhaps the Sc
cret Of Mr.. Skemp's length Of years
and good health. He is as alert men
tally as a young man and has not
many equals when it comes to gard
ening. That he may continue to en-
Joy his peaceful, happy life for many
years to come is the wish of a legion
of Dubuque friends.
The above is from the Times-Jour-
nal of Dubuque. Mr.. Skemp is the
father Of Fred A. Skemp Of James
town. we'll known here. There are
three other sons namely: Harry and
Chas. of Dubuque and Thomas Of La
Crosse; two daughters, Mrs Mae He'd
ley Of Dubuque, and Mrs. Emily Jones
Of Oelwein, La. Also nineteen grand
children.
