THE FRY FAMILY. A very pleasant reunion of members of the FRY family residing in this county was held at the residence of J. C. FRY at Libertyville Friday last. It was arranged in honor of Capt. W. K. FRY, of Middleport, Ohio, who has been visiting in this county for several days.

Among the elder ones present were the four brothers, Simon C., Geo C., and W. K. FRY, the three former having their wives and children with them. All told there were 39 members of the family, old and young, present, among whom were Mr. and Mrs. J. J. WELDAY, of this city, and in addition, a number of friends and neighbors who aided in the merry making. An excellent dinner was served in the grove, tables being provided for the little folks as well as the older ones, and it was late in the evening ere the company dispersed. The FRYs are all well known citizens of Jefferson County.....
