Celebrate Their 73rd Birthday
Prominent citizen and wife celebrate their 73rd birthday at their splendid country home about five miles from Jesup of Mr. and Mrs. George W. Hires. They celebrated their 73rd birthday March 8th, 1923 with a good old time barbecue and chicken dinner with good old cakes and pies and plenty of nice hot coffee and various other good eats prepared by them and relatives and their friends. The feast was spread on a long table in front of the house with chairs for the older people to be seated. To those who were present, ‘twas a beautiful sight.’ Besides these two dear old people who have reared a family of several children surrounded by seven loving children, 22 grandchildren and quite a large number of friends. We hope they will live to enjoy many more happy birthdays. Among the children present were T. A. Hires and family of Odum.
