Long-A Day of Pleasure Unalloyed. The custom of family reunions is nc new. Even in the time of Job tb beautiful custom was in vogue. Ur fortunately the custom is not as prf valent as it should be. There is notl ing more beautiful than the gatherin of relatives and fr!ends at the ol home around one common board i bonds of Christian love and fellowshi] Last Saturday one of the good, ol time family reunions was held at tb home of Mr. Luther M. Long. Amon those present on this happy occasio were the eleven chnaren, but on who was detained at home on accour of illness in the family; many of th grandchildren, Mr. Thos. Blair, fathe of Mrs. J. J. Long; Mr. T. E. Wickei Mrs. Jacob Sease, Mr. Joe Epting, Mi and Mrs. J. B. Reagin, Rev. John I Moose, and Rev. Edward Fulenwide: pastor of the family. Two large tables in the cool shad yard groaned beneath the weight of dinner fit for a king. After all ha eaten, and enjoyed themselves to tb fullest extent, Rev. J. J. Long mad a short speech and calld upon Rev: Edward Fulenwider and J. B. Moosi who responded in short addresses c encouragement and congratulation All seemed happy and cheerful, bi the happiest of all were Mr. and Mn Long, whose smiling faces bespok their feelings. To add even mor pleasure to the occasion, and shol the esteem in which these loving pal ents are held, the children presente them a nice purse of money. The occasion was a most happy onw and will linger long in the hearts c those who were fortunate enough t be present. May a kind Father eve bless these parents, and their childrei who, except in the case of Rev. J. Long, who has a large church in Nort Carolina and is doing a most excellen work, have settled on and around th old home. There are very few in stances like this now, where the chi] dren have been content and satisfie to live near their parents and forr such a large, fine community. An< best of all there is not, in commioa homely but expressive phrase, a singl black sheep in the- large flock. The large community made up a the Longs, Reagins, Seases, Eptings etc., is a fine one, and had we man; mre such this country would 'o much better off. E. F.
