Mr. J.T. NEWBORN'S BIRTHDAY

Mr. J.T. Newborn's 59th birthday was enjoyed by a large crowd. All of his 
children and grandchildren were there. He has 7 children and 14 grandchildren, 
besides neighbors and friends.  The table was long and wide, with cakes, pies, 
custards, and all kinds of vegetables and lemonade.  Mr. Newborn remained at 
the table as long as there was anyone there. He enjoyed all the gifts and 
especially the one Mr. W.A. Brown of Edwardsville sent him. You bet he puffed 
smoke all the afternoon.

The younger people and a few of the older ones joined in a ball game in the 
afternoon. The oldest man being 60 years old made a home run!  Mr. J.T. 
enjoyed the day very much, and looked as though he would have liked to have 
been in all the games.

Look out for J.T. on the 29th of July 1928 for we all will all be there and 
bring the kids.  We hope Mr. Newborn will live to see many more happy birthday 
dinners.
