L. J. Cully
Lexington. For nearly 60 years have the venerable L.J. Cully and wife, of this vicinity, traveled together life's highway. Mr. Cully is aged 86 and his wife 85 years and time's withering touch has deeply furrowed their features. Mr. Cully's vigorous intellect is yet clear and he reads with zest all important questions which absorb the public mind. He cherishes fondly the righteous creed of the Republican party and McKinly's election thrilled his heart with the fervor of youth. The ravages of time have clouded his genial and cultured wife's once bright intellect. In all of life's trials and asperities their spirits have ever flowed with the hope and joy of youth and they are most highly esteemed for their fine elements of brain and character.
