Joseph H. Johnson, husband of the:
Long and Eventful Life
On March 7, 1842, there was born
in the state of Pennsylvania Miss
Nancy Rakes, now a resident of Un
ion, residing at the home of her
daughter, Mrs. John Clarence, and
who with the coming week is to cele
brate her 92nd birthday.
After residing in her native state
for a number of years and attending
the schools of those days, she came
west and was married to a gentleman
by the name of Rakes. A few years
later, he passed away and still later
she was married to a gentleman by
the name of Clarence, who in turn
passed away.
During the past few years, she has
been making her home with her
daughter, Mrs. John Clarence.
The span of years lived by this
aged lady covers many changes in the

liven of individuals and the history of
our nation. Her birth occurred when
the country was less than half as
eld as it is now, nineteen years be-
frre the opening of the Civil war, all
the incidents of which are still fresh
in her mind. She also recalis many
details of the assassination of Tresi
dent Lincoln and hundreds of events
that are not recorded in the history
becks and which are not generally
known by the people of the country
of less mature years.
In the celebration of her birthday
a week hence she will receive the
well-wishes of a large number of
friends and acquaintances. Her's has
indeed been a long and eventful life
during which she has seen the coun
try develop from its raw state to a
finely cultivated condition, with in
numerable towns and villages, an
ever changing transportation system,
of which the airplane is the latest
vehicle of travel, and the invention
or perfection of almost every known
mechanical device in use today. To
hark back to that cold, gray dawn of
March 77, 1S-12, when she first saw
the light of day, would take one thru
a changing panorama of scenes as
variable as could be found in any like
period of time in the history of the
entire world.
Krs. ITancy KcNamee Better
Mrs. Nancy McXamee, who was
seriously ill for so long a time and
whose recovery was a matter of much
joncern by her family and friends.
is now showing marked improvement
which will be good news to her many
friends. She is now able to be up and
about and even to do some house
work. During her illness, Amos was
the cook and proved himself a good
hand at that. However good he was
it the turning out of flapjacks (pan
akes to you), he was unable to con
vince his dog of their goodness, the
animal actually refusing to eat the
coking of Amos, but always licked
the platter clean when Grandmoth
er baked the cakes.

File Action in District Court to
Have Eeal Estate Removed
A petition has b?en filed in the;
district court in which John and
Mary Zatopek, owners of land in the j
northwest part of tin.- city, ask that j
their real estate be- set out from the
corporate limits of the city and be
made a part of Plattsmouth precinct, i
The petitioners i t present in their j
petition that the lund in question,
uS.25 acres, is used -xcludvtly for !
farming purposes and that the prop
erty has no ad"vantr.re from being a
part of the city, that no water or
light service is given them, that th&
land was never platted and laid out
in blocks and stretti; and ccnists of j
out lots. ( j

allowed the release of acreage from j
the corporate limits of the city, al.se
in that section of tho city, while a j
similar suit filed by residents of the j
south part of the city was denied as
public improvements had been made
in that section.

The Veterans Vet? rs League is s.
national organiation iuw terming in ,
:ve-r "00 congressional districts, hav- j
ing a membership of veterans of all
vars, and members of their families i
cf votnig age.
The veteran has resented the ac
ion of congress cutting off over half
i million men from receiving bene
fits, reducing widows pensions to J15
per month, and authori ing regula
tions which have seriously effected a
great number of deserving veterans,
and caused untold suffering. Deter
mined to place their case before the
voters in a manner which will meet
with public approval, the veterans
all over the country are organiing
non-partisan political groups, of
which the First District organization
s a part.
The first activities of the new or- j
?anization have been taking a val-
ant part in the election of Mayor La- j
Guardia of New York, who was a ma-
jor in the World war, and aiding in
the defeat of the chairman of the Na- '
tional Economy League in Vermont;
for congress. Every congressional
district in California is organized,
and one congressional district in New
York has over 25,000 members.
