An Old Gentleman With Patriotic Sons. Jacob Kendig, of Orrstown, aged 70 years, father of H. B. Kendig and the late A. J. Kendig, is in the city. The object of his visit is to take a little daughter of the latter son to his home in Franklin county, and care for her. Mr. Kendig is the father of sixteen children, nine of whom are still living, Mr. H. B. Kendig, of this city, being the oldest. There were five of his sons in the army, two of whom, A. R. and W. H. Kendig, were killed, and H. B. and J. R. were wounded. S. W. Kendig was only 17 years old when he went into the service as a bugler at the headquarters of Generals Gregg, Sheridan and Custer. The old gentleman is still hale and hearty and can kick a foot-ball with the youngest. Of course he is a stalwart Republican. Morning Tribune, Altoona, Pa., Thursday, November 25, 1880
