Spirit of Democracy July 11, 1895 Sardis Too late for last week. Last Thursday evening three merry couples spent the evening very pleasantly at the home of Mrs. Wint Paden until a late hour, when refreshments were served. Those present were: Mr. Leroy Suter, Miss Dove Paden, Lonzo Richardson, Emma Stoehr, Bert Humphrey and Erna Deiter. Miss Carrie Heartleap, who has been the happy guest of Mrs. Flora Goodwin, returned to her home at Hannibal Friday. Mr. and Mrs. Warren Gano and children were at New Martinsville over Sunday, the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Rist. The basket picnic across the river Sunday was a happy event. All report having had a great time. Mr. Rotcherson of Moundsville stopped at the Cunningham house this week. We are very sorry to say that they didn't get any oil at the Nesbitt well. Mr. Hubacher and son Oscar were at Clarington Thursday. Mr. Henry Thompson has been all smiles; it's another girl. transcribed by Sara Richardson Kelly re: Richardson, Suter, Griffith, Nesbitt, Deiter
