In honor of our esteemed fellow citizen and pioneer of Salt Lake and Bear Lake Valley, John A Sutton, who has just passed the 78th mile stone looking many years younger. The company consisted of his missionary sons with their wives and some of their sons and daughters and a jolly crowd were telling of their missionary experience and singing the songs of Zion, for there is lots of sunshine in their hearts and many were the congratulations to their father hoping he will live many years to counsel and advise his children.

It was regretted very much the absence of his tow oldest and two youngest sons and his two great grandchildren which was unavoidable.
