One cf the most delightful social
events of the ?eason was the Colonial
party at the home of Mrs. L. M.

hardt Wednesday, at which time Mrs.

to his mail box, almost a quarter of a
mile away, every day for his mail,
and would read his paper (having
subscribed to The Augusta Chronicle
for 73 years, reading it first when it
w’as a small weekly) if his eye-sight
were good. Some members of the
family will usually read to him.
Capt. Coward comes into Aiken at
least once a week, driving with one
of his sons or grandsons. “I never
fail to attend services at my church,
though,” he said when admitting that
he does sometimes miss a, week in
going to town. He has long been a
member of the Millbrook Baptist
church,, which is in sight of his home.
His house, he built himself when he
first moved to his present property
about 60 years ago.
Although possessing a wonderful
constitution and having taken fine
care of himself, Capt. Coward says
that he ha? not escaped a number of
illnesses. A year ago, he was con
fined to his bed for three months
with pneumonia, and he says that he
didn’t think he woulld ever get up,
but says that once .when he was
working"for the -abroad that he had
measles and surely thought he would
die. He also had typhoid fever at
that time. H e still retains his teeth,
only having had one or two pulled.
When asked to what he attributed
hi? remarkable age, Capt. Coward
says that he has never deceived any
one, and that he has always tried to
treat his fellow-man right.
“And I never was much to frolic,”
he added. Congratulated on his
birthday and told that it was hoped
he w‘culd have many more, he repli
ed that he does not greatly desire
much longer life. “I liv$ in th e past,”
the venerable old man said simply.
Bom about a mile from the present
Village cf Dunbarton, Capt. Coward,
a son cf James and Harriet Coward,
was one of five children. All have
passed on. His father he doesn’t re
member, having died when he was
very young, but his mother lived to
an cld age, said to have been over
100 at her death. In 1856 Capt. Cow
ard came to Aiken and maYried Miss
Frances Burckhalter, daughter of
the late Mr. and Mrs. Martin B.
Burckhalter. For a time, they lived
near Dunarton, but later moved to
Aiken, where Mrs. Coward "died in
March, 1874. He married Miss Jose
phine Owens, daughter of MY. and
Mr ; . Ellis Owens, of Dunbarton, who
still is living and shares his old age
with him.
B;rn to Capt. Cow r ard have been
20 children, 11 by his first wife and
nine by his ?€cond. Eight, four from
each union, aie now* living. Of the
20 children, there were three sets of
twins. There are 44 grandchildren,
and 30 great grandchildren.
