THE PEOPLE WHO' SELL IT FOR' LESS ’
The Alexander family.
Referring to the reunion of the
Alexander family held Saturday
at the old homestead, it might be
well to recall some facts in con-
nection with the early settlement
of this section.
The parental stock of this fam-
ily settled in Lampasas county
in 1856, and the children have
grown up here, the youngest,
Stephen, being as stated, now 66
years of age. Some time since
this same Stephen Alexander
stated to this writer that of the
nine living children, he could
visit all of them in a day on
horseback, and n®t be wearied
at night. «
Physically this family are all
strong, as indicated by their ages
at the present time. They grew
up to'endure hardships, to under,
go peyils of frontier life, and to
know how to live with economy
and proper management. For
nearly twenty years after they
settled in this immediate section
the Indians made periodical raids
into the country, and they did
their share of the work in re?
deeming this section to the white
face race.
These are also a prolific people
as the number present indicates,
it being stated that sixty-six j
were present, and forty of them
remained to supper. While the
writer is not informed as to the
number absent, it is, safe to say
that a number of the grand-
children and great-grand-chil-
dren were unavoidably in a dis-
tant part of the country when
this reunion was held. The fact
that the children of Samuel Al-
exander and his good wife live
right around the old homestead
does not preclude the wandering
of the younger generation to
more remote parts of the world.
The Alexanders are among the
best people of the country—hon-
est, sober, upright in their deal-
