Lexington, Nov. 24—R.J. Wagoner of Lexington township, is now nearly 80 years old, he stated Saturday, and has never been a juror in court and never received a dollar of public money otherwise. He is the father of 17 children, 10 sons and 7 daughters, all of them members of the Democratic party.
Mr. Wagoner is a Confederate veteran and always attends all reunions that are within reach, including a number of the southern reunions, the state and county meetings. His appearance and vigor do not indicate his nearly four score years.
