Richardson and his family. These family reunions are very interesting to r*e. I love to see them ? ?J 4-I.a r,r\f\A oVioor which tV)PV al Aim CXiC gWVI v>iiWi J ways bring. When' the children of a household grow up and set up homes of their own, and many times separated far from one another, it is good for them to make a pilgrimage once in a while back to the old home,< and call up the memories of the a . happy days of the past when they ^ played together and roamed over the hills and in the valleys in happy and innocent childhood together. It helps to keep alive that loyalty which is the strength of our very government itself. In fact state and country loy . alty, or in other words patriotism, must be born in the home, and there is nothing so beautiful in this world as true loyalty among the children of the same household. Loyalty to the parents of the home and loyalty one to the other. Ana 1 am pieasea to see and to attend and to hear of so many of these family reunions in) this day. I trust the practice may be kept up. It will make better citirzens of us all. In the case of the Richardsons most of them have settled and set up their homes within sight, so to speak, of the ancestral home, and those who have not are not very far away. In fact I have designated the community Richardsonville. And at one of the* polling places near by out of an enrolment of 46 if I am not mistaken 4 some 18 of the number are Richardsons. And all good, honest, hard working and substantial citizens of the community and getting on in the world and taking an interest in their church and their school as all good: citizens do. Peter Richardson and his wife, Nancy Kelly, settled on the place now owned and in a house that stood very near the spot on which is now the home of T. P. Richardson, and they reared six sons and one daughter all of whom, except one son, B) B. Richardson, are now living within a radius of one mile of the old home of Peter Richardson. I remember the old home very well, because as a) very small boy I walked through the yard every morning' and afternoori when I attended th*- school taught by ^ n iable H I-Lai^A ir kalrv at Lll^l C 1^ ll^ip uw >s a broader service I Power Laundr : you should think of liar and family washi re than that. modern Power I lything that can be c >r gasoline and naptl* it Mrs. Wright in the yard of the home j of the Rev.
