FETTERS
FAMILY
The sixth reunion of the Fetters family was held at the pleasant
country
home of Mr. and Mrs. Jocob Saul, one mile east of Williams Center,
Ohio.
Early in the morning buggies and automobiles began to arrive with
friends
from Fremont, Angola, Hudson, Pleasant Lake and Lorth Liberty, Indiana,
Hicksville, Edgerton and Bryan, Ohio, and surrounding country until the
number reached 113. The forenoon was spent in greetings and
becoming
acquainted with new relatives. At the noon hour all gathered in
the
large
grove east of the house where two long tables loaded with good things
to
ead,
such as only wives and mothers know how to prepare. After dinner
the
meeting
was called to order by D. H. Reese, acting president in the absence of
H.D.Fetters, of West Salem, Ohio, and an interesting program was
rendered,
although the threatening weather brought it to a close sooner than
intended.
After the progaram the business session followed. It was decided
to
hold the
next reunion at the home of John Saul, Melbourn, Ohio, the third
Wednesday
of
August, 1913. The following officers were elected for next year:
D.H.Reese,
president; O.V.Fetters, vice-president; Mrs. D.H.Reese, secretary; Levi
Fetters, treasurer. Too much in praise of Mr. and Mrs. Levi
Fetters
cannot
be said for thir generous hospitality and hearty welcome to all.
In
departing for their home all expressed the hope to meet again next year.
