    • August 1916 - Horr & Early Family Reunion
      Prattsbugh NY News 1914-1917 - 0387.pdf

      H o r r - E a r l e y Reunion.
      The eighth annual reunion of the Horr
      and Early families was held at the home
      of Mr. and Mrs. Francis Cross of Pulteney,
      August 16, 1016.
      The morning was spent very pleasant
      ly In greeting old friends aud talking
      over old times. At 2 o'clock a bountiful
      dinner was served to which all did ample
      justice. After dinner a short program,
      consisting of songs and recitations was
      glvcMi. Several friends of the family
      consented to take part aud their efforts
      were much appreciated and enjoyed by
      all. Another pleasing feature of the
      pregrnm was a soug by Mrs. Elisha Horr
      emltled, " Silver Threads among the
      Gold." which was very effectively rendered
      and brought tears to many eyes
      The oldest representatives of the family
      were Mr. Willliini Ron- who is in his
      ninety Uourlh year and Mr. Elisha P.
      Horr of Denver who is in his 78th year.
      They had not seen each other for many
      years and their meeting proved so
      effective that it served as an inspiration
      for the following poem:
      At the home of F. S. Cross on August 16,
      The Horr family gathered from everywhere I
      ween,
      To exchange friendly greeting and talk over
      old times;
      Their glad hearts were beating with fond
      memories chimes.
      Two old brothers gray with years
      Greeted each other with smiles and tears.
      Fifty One years had passed away
      Since they had parted to make their own way.
      One seventy eight and one ninety three,
      One that was lame and could not see;
      Wrinkles of care were on each face,
      But the family ties, time could not erase,
      R. M.
