Emery Harris Celebrates His 79th
Birthday Anniversary On Sunday
Emery Harris celebrat
birthday anniversary
in Carverton with "open house for
his friends and family Sunday after-
noon and evening.
Mr. Harris was born July 6, 1861,
on Harris Hill on the farm now
owned by Dr. G. L. Howell. His
mother was Cordelia Frantz who
died in 1901 and his father Elias
Harris who lived until the grand
old age of 81 and was then killed
by a trolley car that ran into his
horse and buggy back in 1912.
When Emery was only 4 the fam-
ily moved to Carverton in the very
house where Mr. Harris now does
his own housekeeping. There are
two other children living, Mrs. Amy
DeWolfe of Dallas and Charlie, who
is such a familiar figure at the Dal-
las bank and whom we have a nice
visit with at the postoffice every
morning.
In March 25, 1885, Mr. Harris
married Etta Rice at her home in
Lehman and became the father of
four children: Mrs. Bessie Casterlin
of Manchester, Conn., Mrs. Bertha
Kraus of Wyalusing, Hiram Harris
of Mt. Zion and Mrs. Sarah Rogers
of Bloomsburg. He now has 17
grandchildren and 5 great grand-
children. The Harrises were fortu-
nate for they enjoyed 52 years to-
| gether, Mrs. Harris dying only three
years ago, in 1937.
Generally so contented alone,
reading and pottering around the
house, Mr. Harris seemed delighted
when the Krauses and the Harrises
and a good many of the grandchil-
dren brought their dinners out to
the farm and spent Sunday with
him. Not a birthday cake but a
tremendous luscious shortcake help-
ed him celebrate.
