OTHER SOCIAL EVENTS
----------
One hundred three
members of the Ridlin and Bright families held their
annual reunion last Saturday, the park at the school building No.3 in this city
being the scene of the very happy gathering. A fried chicken dinner was
the feature of the sumptuous dinner at the noon hour. Officers for the
coming year were selected and the next annual reunion will be held at the
home of Warren Robertson of Adams, who was elected president. Miss
Hazel Wright, of St. Paul, was re-elected as secretary-treasurer. On
behalf of the families present, the officers asked the Democrat to thank the
members of the school board for the use of the grounds which formed an admirable
place for the reunion. Nearly all of those present are residents of Shelby
and Decatur counties. Among those from a distance were ex-Sheriff
S. D. Leffler, of Jasper county, Illinois, and Mrs. Jessie Olcott, of
Louisville, Ky.
