The Taggart Re-union.
The Taggart Re-unlon held at the residence of Mrs. Minerva Lyman and Mrs. Ada Lyman, In Roulette, on the 5th Inst., was one of the most pleasant occasion our vllllage has known.
The day was all that could be desired, warm and pleasant, while each one present seemed desirous of making others happy.
Where so many were present, ranging In age from the silver-haired veteran of seventy-two, to the Innocent pratler of a year, the different Btages of lire were well represented.
First in order was the greeting oi friends as they arrived from different points, and the hearty salutations spoke to the strength of family and friendship ties. Some time was spent In merry games, after which many gathered round the organ and rendered a choice selection of soul-stirring music. Soon came the summons to the dining room where was spread a most beautiful repast, to which the guests did ample justice. The tea was especially good from the fact that the water In which It was maae, was boiled in an Iron tea kettle over two hundred years old. An Iron orane- hmk and chain was also exhibited which was manufactured In Ireland, and has been in possession of the Taggart family for about the same length of time.
After dinner the young people gathered on the lawn to enjoy a few games, after which the entire company were called to the front of the house, where L. R. Bliss, of Coudersport, was making ready to photograph the scene. This picture will make a desirable souvenir of the time, for which he will have many orders.
More music was then called for, and with Miss Maty Taggart at the organ, assisted by Addie Knickerbacker, Len Taggart, Nellie Taggart, Lettie Craven, Luman Andrews, Edith Pomeroy, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Williams, Nettie Nelson, Mabel White, Sadie Lyman, Ellen Lyman, Miss Mary Bird, Mrs. J. M. Spafford, Mrs. Alice Walmsley, Mrs. Mary Earle, Mrs. O. B. Webb, Mrs. R. L. White, Mrs. Hattie Chesbro, Mrs. Helen Taggart, Mrs. G. W. Warner, C. M. Pomeroy, L. K. Bliss and Dayton Pomeroy. Some old fashioned pieces, such as "Auld Lang Syne" and "Coronation," with "What Shall the Harvest be," was given in a way that seemed to join all hearts in one.
Soon began preparations for those living at a distance to leave, and it is sincerely hoped that all those who were present will be permitted to meet again at the reunion next year, which was understood to be appointed at the residence of J. M. Spafford, in Lymansvllle.
---ONE WHO ENJOYED IT.
