JACOB MANN'S BIRTHDAY.
Payson, Ill., March 19. -- Jacob Mann celebrated his seventy-fourth birthday on Wednesday with a family dinner at the home of his son, Stanley, and wife.

Payson, Ill., Jan. 24. -- Quietly and without ostentation, on Wednedsday, January 21, was celebrated the golden wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Jacob G. Mann, most respected and beloved residents of Payson township.
The happy event was held at the Mann home, two miles south, and one mile east of the village, where Mr. and Mrs. Mann have spent the greater part of their wedded life.
It was on January 21, 1875, that Jacob G. Mann was united in marriage to Miss Caroline Ruby. Through this half century, they have lived to witness the greatest development in southern Adams county, of any other two persons now residents. This improvement not only represents their own farm and homestead, but the community, as well.
We say this because their settlement dates back to when it was a wilderness of heavy wooded land. The original [?] was but a few acres, nevertheless Mr. Mann began clearing and farming, and continued it, until today it is one of the best in the county.
Agricultural pursuit, in that time, did not have the convenience of the modern farmer. Plowing and harrowing around stumps did not go on so pleasantly. Yet withal, Mr. Mann labored on, clearing a little each year. The winter season was devoted to disposing of the wood, logs, or lumber. The farm today is well under cultivation, except where the creek passes through, and the timber used for private use or [?] for stock.
Their first home was a primitive house of logs, with the customary basement. This was later improved, and his modern home was built eighteen years ago.
Mr. and Mrs. Mann have two sons and one daughter: John C. Mann of St. Joseph, Missouri; Stanley J. Mann of Payson; and Mrs. Frank J. Scranton of Payson.
They have nine grandchildren. Miss Pearl, John and Donald, children of Mr. and Mrs. John C. Mann; Minton, Charles and baby Irene, children of Mr. and Mrs. Stanley J. Mann; Amos, Harry, and Rose Myrtle, children of Mr. and Mrs. Frank J. Scranton.
Eighteen years ago, Mr. and Mrs. Mann relinquished the farm management to their son, Stanley J., and their son in law, Frank J. Scranton. The latter occupies the comfortable home with the parents, and the son has built for his occupancy a beautiful bungalow on the southwest corner of the estate.
In religious affiliation, Mr. and Mrs. Mann have been members of the Congregational church at Payson, for many years. For the past twenty-one years, he has been a Deacon. In politics, he is a Democrat. Mr. Mann is seventy-eight years of age, and his wife is seventy-five.
They enjoy the acquaintance of an endless number of friends, who certainly extend to them the heartiest congratulations, and wish for them many more anniversaries of their wedding.
