The Effingham
Democrat, Thursday, January 28, 1875
There is only one thing,
which has apparently been wanting to render Mr. Hodebeck's happiness complete. This want no longer
exists, for after six consecutive feminine arrivals at his house, the
monotony of the thing is at last broken, and the seventh-Oh happy
event!-is a boy!!! Now let Lee, Tom, Joe and Max cheer up, for after
such manifestations of heavenly blessings, surely there is yet hope
even for them.
Tally another for Bent Rinehart, it's a boy too. Good enough.
