      SEES KIN: READY TO DIE
      AGED WOMAN CALLS REUNION

      Mrs. Large, Pioneer of City, who fears she may expire during
      winter, relates settler stories at family gathering.

      A birthday anniversary gathering was held yesterday at the home of Mr. and
      Mrs. I.N. Medsker, 1415 Montecalm St. in honor of Mrs. Eliza Anna Large,
      who is 87 years old today. More than fifty relatives were present and partook of
      the family reunion diner and had their pictures taken in a group with Mrs. Large
      in the center. Nineteen grandchildren and eighteen great-grandchildren were
      present.

      Mrs. Large has been in poor health during the last two years, and it was at
      her request that all her relatives in Indiana gathered at the home of her daugh-
      ter yesterday. She said that she wanted to see them all together, fearing that she
      may not live through the winter.

      "Children, I am ready to die now, since I have seen you all and know you are all
      well and happy, as soon as the Lord wants to call me", she told the relatives
      and then asked to be excused from the merrymaking circle and retired early in
      the afternoon.

      The six living children, out of a family of twelve, who were present yesterday,
      are Mrs. Frank Jackson of Greensburg, IND., and the others from this city are
      Mrs. I.N. Medsker, Mrs. William Rosemeyer, Mrs. David McCoy, H.D. Richardson and
      John Large.

      Tells Settler Stories

      Stories of the early days, the settler days, when Indianapolis was a small
      country town, surrounded by woods filled with wild game and Indians, were
      told during the day by the great-grandmother to here many descendants. Mrs.
      Large is the only member of her family, save here own children. Her husband
      Michael Large, died three years ago. She has lived in this city ever since she was
      5 years old, and said she remembered distinctly of coming here in a covered
      wagon from her home in Fairmont County, Ohio. She said she came through
      Cincinnati entering Indianapolis by the Michigan road. For twenty-five years
      she lived on Washington street, then known as Main Street. She said most of the
      bouses were built of logs, and while Indians did not bother the inhabitants of the
      town much, they were numerous and a contant dread was entertained.

      She told stories in her weak and hesitating voice of how she had joined the
      Strange Chapel, a Methodist Church, one of the first to be founded here, when
      she was a young girl: how the preacher rode a hourse and how the congreations
      shouted and "carried on" in revival meeting times. She said it was not un-
      common for men to go to church with a gun over their sholders. The chapel,
      she said, was some place on Senate avenue, then known as Mississippi street.
      The Court House was made of logs and stood on Main street, near Pogue's Run.

      The first train that passed through here, a J.M. I., she said she saw, and
      that all the cars were flat and were not covered. When the Court House was
      built there were but three churches and five stores. Two sons enlisted in the
      civil war, the surviving one being H.D. Richardson.

      Mrs. Large is a devoted Christian. Her eyesight is so poor that she asks different
      members of the family to read from the Bible to her every day. She had her
      picture taken yesterday with a Bible in her lap.
