Friends and relatives called during the afternoon to extend congratulations and the birthday recipient received many lovely cards and gifts. Among guests present was Mrs. Lavina Salisbury, also a resident at Eventide. A social time was spent and the hostess served a dainty lunch assisted by Mrs. Morris Lawrence and Mrs. James Robertson.

Prior to that time she lived for many years on Tait street, coming to Canada from England in 1905. She has lived since that time in Galt and will be remembered by many oldtimers. During her younger years she I was an active worker in Women's groups at Trinity church, where she is a member. Besides Leonard on Stanley street, there are two other sons, Reginald of Byron, Onario [sic], and Reginald of Byron, Ontario, and daughter. The Evening Reporter, Galt, Saturday, Jan. 26, 1957
