rlanned to visit her.

Thompson is wonderfully well preserved, and possesses a memory that is remarkable. She is also able to sulerintend her household and take an interest, in passing events. Coming of a family that was long lived, it is not so uncommon to her that today she reached the age of 100 years. Born in Kentucky. She is the daughter of the late James and Drucilla Burns, and was born on the farm of her father in Lewis county. Kentucky, on May 18, 1820. The family was of Virginia origin, where Mr. Burns was born in 1778, and where he spent the years during and following the revolutionary

war. Tn the war of 1812 he shouldered a musket in defense of his country. Her father died in 1878 at the age of 1 00 years. For the first nine years of lier life Mrs. Thompson lived in the "Blue Jbiss" state, coming with her j arentto Indiana in 1S29, after her father had established a log cabin home in a. forest clearing in Rush county. T,ater this home was supplanted with a large brick home, the first in this section. The schooling of that day was very crude, says Mrs. Thompson, and the teachers of the "spare the rod and f-noil the child" kind, the disposition of one teacher causing him to receive punishment from fathers of the pupils on one occasion. Was Married in 1845. Her marriaee to Alfred Ore est Thompson occurred in 1843 and the couple moved to Shelbv county nenr St. Paul in 18.31. Since 1883 Mrs. Thompson has lived in the pretty home which she now occupies in Waldron. Speaking of the living conditions at the time of her marriage, Mrs. Thompson says flint people lived very simply and only few had carpets on the floors of their homes. One of the first things she can rememher doing niter her marriage is the making of a rag rucr for the floor of her home, which placed her in an enviable position among her neighbors. Stoves were rarely used and because

her parents did not possess one shelf

and her husband also did without this commodity.
