General Notes: Husband - Capt. Thomas Harris

---

He held that invincible enemy, death, at bay for 106 years. When 80 years old he was discovered planting an orchard of apple trees. With the officiousness of familiarity a neighbor said: "What are you doing that for, Captain? You'll never live to get any of the apples." But Captain Harris lived twenty-six years longer and enjoyed the fruit of his planting.
