Mr. and Mrs. Weum, who are both over 60 years old, have enjoyed very few of this world’s pleasures, unless one considers hard work a pleasure, and not a few of its vicisitudes, but this has not spoiled their genial friendly natures. Mr. Weum is a shoemaker by trade and the merry tap of his pegging hammer was heard in many a home in the old country.
