when babe in arms, and this has
been her home ever since, with the

union, two of whom have passed
away, Mrs. Dick Ruffridge, of
Greene, Iowa, who passed away in
1914, and son William who passed
away in 1912. The surviving chill
dren, all of whom were in attend

man for Swift & Co., of South st.
Paul; Lawrence Seim, DEBORAH;

cellent and highly esteemed resi-
dents all these years and they have
hundreds of friends who join with
US in extending to them many happy
returns of the day. They are both
enjoying the best of health and it is
the wish of all their friends that
they may be spared to celebrate
their diamond wedding together.
