A Family Reunion

Last Saturday, July 6th, Rev. and Mrs. John Locke gave their children and 
grandchildren a gala day at their sweet old home.  The occasion was an ideal 
family reunion and enjoyed in an ideal manner.  We spent the morning in talking 
over the good old days of the past, taking stock of our many present blessings 
and achievements and listening to music, such as none can render save those 
having the talent and training of Rev. Locke’s daughters.  When the dinner hour 
arrived we were invited out to the long table under the shade of the trees.  
Then and there was saw the long boasted “Old Virginia hospitality” laid in the 
shade.  The table was covered with breads of every desirable kind and flavor.  
The dishes piled high with fish, flesh and fowl, with coffee, postum, lemonade 
and deep well water all near at hand, and cold creams of various flavors in 
abundance.  The eye was charmed, the heart inspired to higher things, the 
thirst quenched and the appetite appeased by the many moral and physical sweets 
that day supplied.
