Robert, and granddaughter Helm, Mrs. Mary Taylor and daughter, Ella, Abe Shoemaker, Mrs. Ellen Rayn and daughter. Cor;t. Lewis Anderson and Wm. Letz. The history as written by K. E. Shoemaker and read by Mrs. George • Shoemaker follows: "The days of youth are the scenes of bnoyaney of love, grandeur and gladness. Who will deny the added touch of splendor, the warmth of , color, and the happiness of satisfaction that the dreatfis of youth lend to those whose years have become golden? Who could care to forget those days that bespeak this senti- . ment? 1 1 dan see her pink sunbonnet and the little checkered dress, that . she wore when I first kissed he.- u.i 1 she answered that caress, with the . wiittrn declaration that as surely a 8 , tbe vino grew round the stump, she loved me, that old sweet-heart, of mine. I Those are the scenes that are as sacred as the old family bible or the , old fashioned hymn book. 1 Not unlike this figure of romance ' was the happy courtship of one John P. Shoemaker and Sarsh E Taylor. . This congenial association was more ■ firmly bound when the two were happily united in marriage, by Squire Williams on January 17th, 1575 at the home of the bride’s parents, Theo-j dore and Hannah Taylor in Wells ' ■ county. Only four of those who were! witnesses to the ceremony are living , today; they being Mary E. Taylor, Theodore Taylor. Dan P. and Belle Shoemaker, all of Geneva. } After tlteir marriage John P. and Ellen at the ages of twonty thn o and I twenty-one resp'ectively went to liv' as renters on what was known as the John Glendening farm in Jenn I township, Jay county.

Unlimited because there flows frur.l the heart, of each of their children a reverence for father and mother that rings true, is sincere and obedient. Unlimited because reirhbors and friends have learned to know and speak of them as individuals who have earnestly helped to make their community a pleasant place in which to love.
