Circumstances occurred last
Saturday which made T. C. Hen
derson greatly enjoy the day—
his 72nd birthday. About 12 or
15 years ago he was cutting out
the brush along the line of a
small tract of land which he was
planning to deed to Oak Grove
Baptist church, and the brush
jerked his watch chain from his
pocket without his realizing it at
the time. When he found that the
chain was lost,- he searched dil
igently for it but in the brush
and leaves he failed to find it.
Last Saturday James Henderson
was cutting wood near the place
where the chain was lost and his
little three-year-old son was play
ing near by. He saw the end of
the chain “tickin’ up” and pulled
it from the bedded leaves. He was
greatly pleased with the find and
with delight presented it to his
granddad, who rejoiced because
of the return of the chain and
liberally compensated his grand
son for the find. The cake for
this birthday occasion was pre
pared by the daughter, Mrs. Lu
cille Owen. She decorated the
cake nicely, hpt when it came to
the candles she said, “Six dozen
candles is too many for a cake
for my dad,” so she left them all
off.
