"Local Man 91 Years Young"
Doc Webb of 104 N. Pike St., New Carlisle, OH., celebrated his ninety-first birthday recently, with an open house for a large group of friends and relatives.

Born in Letcher County, Ky., in 1887, Dock is a remarkably active man. He not only maintains his own home and tends a large garden there, but also looks after rental property which he owns nearby. In addition he still finds the time and energy to supervise various family projects.

When the unofficial "mayor of Pike St.," is asked about his prescription for longevity Dock, smiles and mentions the hard work and the vegetables he grows himself.  However, close relatives claim that while his affinity for vegetables-and in particular, mustard greens- play a part, his "plain old stubborn streak" is really the thing that keeps him going.

Helping Dock celebrate his birthday at the recent open house were his grandchildren, who planned the event. They are Jan and Joe Webb, Diana Webb Beatty, June Webb Ritchey, and Paul and Bonni Barrett, all of New Carlisle, Ohio.
