Only the three youngeSt of tb? Ulm” l teen were hers, she said, for the drsr. Mrs. Ilought had died peacefully af- ter having given birth to sixteen. The second Mrs. llouglit, a fine, tall woman, apparently about thirty. Wo! nursing the baby, Charlel Ediiard. who was ten months old. Gladys, 1 ‘gee feur, and Beatrice, aged two,

tugged at her skirts. '

"1 cum ten you about them all."

she said, "You seo, you can’t think

Of all their iiainos."

Mrs. Hought, however, managed to remember eleven of the sixteen child-_T r.-n who formed the first family. Tho oidest, she believed, was about forty- five. Two or three of the family are

dead.

Summarized, the names and des-

tinies of those members of the Hought family who are not forgotten are as

follows:

Leonard, a. joincr, works at Don-`

caster.

Margaret married a Shoemaker and

lives at Lincoln. '

Elizabeth is the wife of a foreman

foundry worker employed at Lin-

coln. `

Kate is married to an agent living

at Lincoln. `

Walter is a fitter in a Lincoln

workshop.

Tom. a. tailor, works at Lincoln. , Edith, who is unmarried, is 3, clerk in a Lincoln ofllce. _

Lily married a. grocer's aSSista.nt i

living at Grantham.

Jessie is a mother's help at Gran-

tham.

_Elsie is in service at Halifax. E Florrie married a Wagoner and lfvol

at Claxby. The Hought family is an admirable

example of Lincolnshire country folk generally. Tealby is a paradise on a hill. Tree-io;-|.i~;l downs decline on to stretches of meadowland and corn, and woods of fir, in which rabbits and squirrels start at your footstep _ as you pass.

The younger generation preferred -

the congested towns, however, and have fled from the land. Out of twenty-two young men reared in a row of houses at Nocton sixteen have forsaken the country for the town.

In 1a.rge_fa.milies, it inlaid, some

af the older ones have to leave home from Sheer lack of accommodation. That is not the chief reason however, The Gllgineoring shops at Sheffield, Grantham, and Lincoln seems to have swallowed the young active' lives which should have. stayed on the land.

of the ripe young manhood which on the land lives to a green old age and leaves behind it many young lives to_ renew its strength in other generations.

Where Lincolnshire folk have stay.
