Cummings, Mr./Mrs. Geo. (Family Reunion - 30 AUG 1925)

Sunday, Aug. 30 was rather an eventful day for Grandpa Cummings.

Mr. and Mrs. Geo. L. Cummings from Salem, Ore., who have been visiting his brother for some time, returned to Whitehall a week ago.

Sunday morning they returned for a final visit before starting back for Oregon, and were accompanied by several cars of relatives.

The crowd consisted of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. L. Cummings, Salem Ore., Mrs. Nellie Morden and family, Mr. and Mrs. Ole Settingsgaard and family of Whitehall, Wis., Mr. and Mrs. Alva Cummings and family of Alma Center, Wis., Mrs. Ida Stone, Zering, Iowa.

After many handshakes and greetings, the party, with Grandpa Cummings, Mr. and Mrs. John Arends and Theresa and Rue Cummings, drove to the City Park for a picnic dinner.

When all were seated, a roll call was taken, which number 32 guests in all.

The appropriate hymn, "Bless be the Tie" was sung and everyone there did justice to the bounteous dinner.

Several family group picture were taken as mementos of the occasion.

The day was a happy one for all, and especially for Mr. Cummings, who will, within days, celebrate his 84th birthday.
