Price-Darrow
Ackley
To the Editor of the Agitator: For some time past there has been
talk in the family of Mr. Roswell Ackley of celebrating the 50th anniversary
of his wedding day. By 10 o’clock this morning teams began to arrive,
each with its load of happy relatives. The company being assembled,
conversation and music enabled them to pass the time very pleasantly.
A committee, consisting of Mrs. S. A. Yale, Mrs. Jane Ackley, Mr. C. C.
Ackley and Mr. A. Sweazey, was appointed to present the gifts, and that
duty was discharged with a few appropriate remarks, indicating the abiding
affection felt for the aged parents by their descendants. Finally,
supper being announced, the bride and groom were seated at the head of
the table, flanked by a groom’s man and bride’s maid who were present at
the wedding just 50 years ago. The long table furnished “ample room
and verge enough” for the accommodation of more than a score of the family,
and it was literally loaded with a wealth of luxuries. After supper
there was more music, and then Mr. Sweazey read an original poem written
for the occasion. Mr. C. C. Ackley then gave a brief history of the
family in the shape of an extemporaneous address. He said his father
was left alone early in life--his father dying when Roswell was eight years
old, and his mother when he was 13. The youth first learned the clothier’s
trade, then that of tanner, blacksmith, shoemaker and carpenter.
He went to school but five months in his life, and yet he has been called
a good business man. Fifty years ago he gave his hand and heart to
Almira Southworth in marriage. At that time the young couple had
but $270 that they could call their own. They have since raised eight
children, and, thank God, all of them are alive to-day. To rear these
children in poverty was a severe task indeed. Some years they were
obliged to live in old houses so cold that water would freeze within three
feet of the fire. On the 1st of February, 1848, after a week’s journey,
they arrived here in Clymer from Tompkins county, NY, and settled upon
the farm which they now occupy.--They moved into an old log house which
is still on the farm, and they had a tough match to support their large
family. The mother would spin, knit and sew, pick berries in the
summer, and in the fall and winter dry apples, while father would make
shoes nights and browse his cows and oxen by day in the spring. We
used boiled peas and beans in the place of potatoes; but then we had cowslips,
dandelions and other greens for dessert. We have been days and weeks
without any milling, except some wheat bran, but we were fortunate enough
to have a good sieve to sift our bran. We were compelled to go to
Jasper, NY, to mill. There were a few acres cleared and an orchard
set out when we arrived, and the latter did us great service. We
had apples raw, stewed, baked and fried, and having so great a variety
we did not complain. We followed father to the forest by break of
day, and in a little while the woods began to disappear before our axes.
But notwithstanding these early struggles the family has been a fortunate
one. The boys all grew up, and when the war broke out six of us took
part in suppressing the rebellion. Two were commissioned and one
a non-commissioned officer, and at the close of the struggle we were all
permitted to return to our old home and loved ones. We all have,
indeed, many things to be thankful for. Parents! you have done all
in your power to keep this large family together. It must be consoling
to know that your children have all settled within two miles of the old
homestead. You have seen your descendants increase to 53, and in
the half century only three deaths have occurred in the family. And
if the property was equally divided each one would be in good shape.
Mr. Roswell Ackley then arose, and with utterance choked with emotion he
thanked all present for their presence and generous sentiments; and having
admonished all so to live as not to bring reproach on themselves or the
family, he resumed his seat amidst the profound emotion of all present.
