40 A surprise to Spencer Cline
On the 13th of August, Mr. Spencer Cline, who lives in Blount township, on the Newtown road, reached his 75th year. He was sent by his good wife, Rachael, to the store for some soda, which she didn't need, but made an excuse to get him away. Then the neighbors came in with baskets laden with good things and spread a table with food fit for a king. They also brought a lot of nice presents. So when Mr. Cline returned home he was astonished, surprised, laughed until the tears run from his eyes, and shook hands all round. Thirty took dinner, had a joyful time and went away wishing Mr. Cline many more birthdays. The News extends congratulations also to both Spencer and Rachael.
