Saranac Advertiser
HASKINS, MARY B. (BAIRD) (MRS. ALPHUS):
   THE ADVERTISER, SARANAC, MICH.; January 30, 1896:  "Last Saturday evening the
friends and relatives of Miss Mary Baird gathered at her home to remind her that
it was her 19th birthday.  While she was at church they took possession of the
house and upon her return she met with a surprise.  Friends from Lake Odessa,
Keene and other places were present, also her uncle Miles Dodds, of Dakota. 
After spending a pleasant evening with games and music, supper was served and
guests departed about 1 o'clock.  Miss Baird will no doubt remember her 19th
birthday.   --One who was there."
