MRS. LENA MERRILL CELEBRATES 60th BIRTHDAY

October 21st is a significant date int he life of Mrs. Lena Merrill who lives 
near Micaville. Sunday morning, Mrs. Merrill went to work as usual to prepare 
some dinner. In a short time the children and grandchildren came in with well 
filled baskets. Those present were Mrs. Sallie Traylor, Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher 
Traylor, Mr. and Mrs. Elbert Traylor and family from Carrollton,  Mr. and Mrs. 
Willie Merrill from Heflin, Mr. and Mrs. Emory Merrill and family, Mr. Alta 
Traylor from Gadsden, Misses Louise and Lizzie May Merill, and Mr. Homer 
Merrill.

At eleven o'clock the crowd went to church at Micaville and heard a most 
inspiring sermon by Bro. Skinner. After church they all came home ready to 
partake of the good dinner.

The table was spread out in the yard near the well. It was laden with tempting 
refreshments which all enjoyed very much.  While at the table a picture was 
made of the family.  After dinner the family gathered in the living room to 
enjoy talking of by-gone days and the many blessings which have daily been 
poured out on them all.  We took our departure for home feeling cheerful and 
happy that we had lived to see that day, and trust that we may have the 
pleasure of attending more such birthdays.  A friend.
