Narrative

From the Deepwater World:
Twin girls were born to Dr. and Mrs. E. H. Henry last Thursday, and it was thought for a time that Deepwater was going to lose Grandpa Goodwin. He came up missing and the last we saw of him he was headed north with his hat in his hand, going at a two by four gait to break the news to Grandma. The Dr. was able to get down town Friday morning and received the congratulations of his friends. The little ladies weighed 8 1/4 lbs each.

Narrative

Glenn likes to tell the story that on Dec. 21, 1905 he learned that the world was round. He was at Aunt Stella's house for a Geography lesson when it was interrupted by a boy bounding in and yelling "Run home Glenn, you have two baby sisters." - Ruth Henry West
