Grandfather (Biography, written by Beulah Boone) As I sit looking into the face of grandfathers' picture, which mother has hanging on the wail In har room. I ask her to relate his life to me.' I find that his life history Is very short, but sasy to write a biography from , Alfred Whales*, my grandfathers' name, was born February 12, lggo. a* a small boy he enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere of a country home hear, what is now known as. Lotatsburg. He lived a roaming life with his rnotber and father for many years. He loved all nature, add spent many hours roaming the woods. Mother said that grandfather often made the statement, "I know the woods about my home, as wall as the Indians knew their homes." -?. At a early age be was married. He moved several mltee from his mother "d. f*h?' he and his wife made their home In a small log cot tage. In several years the happiness of [The Best Purgative for hflB the bis married life ru broken when his wtfe died. There were two boys and two girls left In his care In 18S3 be was called to serve In be Civil War. Leaving the children with a nurse be went to war as a soldier under the leadership of Robert E. Lee. Recelv lug no severe lnjtgrles he returned In IMS. After several years he was married to his second wife On April 9, 1886 there was born latheir home a girl Annie This was my mother. Mother being the oldest girl was very with the way grandfather related his experiences as a boy and soldier. My grandfather died at the age of 82. As I look at his picture now I know he must have been a hardwork ing farmer. His face Is wrinkled and seems tanned by the hot sun. Al though his gray hair Is nicely combed with a part on the left side, at the time the picture waa made he wore a plain coat, shirt and necktie. I sym pathise with grandfather for his many hardships. He did not have a chance to get an education as we do to-day.
