Family Reunion Held in the Home of Mr. Archibald P. Smith, Old Residence of Smiths
NEW HEBRON, Aug. 12 - On Sunday, August 6, the Smith family held a reunion at the home of Archibald P. Smith, at the old family home, one mile south of New Hebron. During the morning, relatives of the family came from every direction, each group lugging a load of good things to eat which were spread at the noon hour and a feast was enjoyed by all present, more than 100 people were present, and the old hill was covered with folks as they gathered around the table under the old elm tree that stands in front of the home, picnic fashion.
Some three quarters of a century ago, two Smith brothers, Henry Smith and Pipkin Smith settled in this community. They married sisters, namely, Lavina and Caroline Beasley, both of Copiah county. To Henry and Lavina Smith were born five children, namely: John A., Lawrence. D., Archie P., and Emily and Matilda. Emily married the late P. Myers of this place and Matilda is now Mrs. John L. Weathersby of Monticello. To Pipkin and Caroline Smith were born two children, namely: Jesse P. Smith who lives near this place just over the line in Jefferson Davis county and Amanda, who married the late I. N. Bush, and who is the mother of the Bush family of the New Hebron community.
It was the birthday of Archie P. Smith. Just how old he is was not given out but he himself is now a grandfather by a good many years. He still lives in the house where he was born, and which is a great deal older than he. Incidentally as one examines one of these old ante bellum homes he is impressed with the manner in which they carry and hide their age. The old house seems to defy time and weather. Many are the homes in this community that it has seen built, thrive and decay, and like Tennyson's brook it seems to go on forever. Those old buildings are scattered here and there over this community, built in the long, long ago, by those thrifty pioneer citizens, who chose with meticulous care every piece of timber that went into the building, and you will always find nearby the old dug well that served its day but many years ago caved and has gone out of use.
As one mingled with the crowd present Sunday, one was impressed that the two grandfather Smiths above referred to certainly faithfully obeyed the injunction to "multiply and replenish the earth." A good time was had by all. After dinner, the crowd was entertained with music by a string band. The youngsters drove to the nearby swimming hole for an hour's fun. It was a day when every one could find some sort of entertainment entirely to his liking. The older ones enjoyed meeting and talking with people that they had not seen for years. All pronounced it a most pleasant day, and said goodbye with regrets that the day was too short.
As one sat on the broad gallery and watched the stream of cars pass all day, he could but wonder what Grandfather Henry Smith would say and think could he but see that speed and comfort on the roads that he could scarcely get over with an ox wagon. One wonders what Grandmother Lavina Smith would say, she who wore skirts that swept the ground, when women did not even have ankles, could she see her little granddaughters in their bathing suits with beautiful rippling muscles as they swim like ducks. We are for both of them. Refuse to take sides.
