The President Godfather

Father of ten children, a farm worker from Voinsles, Mr. Gabriel Boyer, who gives an admirable example of attachment to the land, since his four eldest children, all boys, aged nineteen, seventeen, fifteen and thirteen respectively, work with him on the Grisien farm, operated by Mr. Bachelier, mayor of this commune, has offered Mr. Doumergue, President of the Republic, to be the godfather of his last-born, aged seven months.
Mr. Doumergue, to show his concern for this particularly interesting Brie worker, responded favorably by sending him a gift of 50 francs for his godson.
Mrs. Hardy, wife of the general councilor of the canton, mayor of Fonte-nay-Trésigny, has agreed to be the godmother of young Boyer. The baptism ceremony will take place today, at 9:30 a.m., in the humble church of Voinsles.
