NOTED BLACKSMITH HAS ANNIVERSARY
Another milestone was reached today in the journey of life by John W. Blake, familiarly known as the Pennsylvania blacksmith.

Mr. Blake was born at Martinsburg on May 8, 1848. He served as blacksmith apprentice under his father, James Blake, but the Civil war broke out before his trade was completed and he enlisted on Feb. 22, 1864. He was assigned to the 122nd Pennsylvania infantry where he served one year. Mr. Blake was mustered out in November, 1865. After the war Mr. Blake started in to complete his chosen trade and built up the business which had suffered from neglect. He followed his trade at Martinsburg, Roaring Spring and at York where he blacksmithed and taught school for three years. He moved from Roaring Spring to Altoona where he served the Pennsylvania Railroad company in their blacksmith shop from December, 1890 to May 8, 1919, when he was retired at the age of 70 years, since which time he makes his home in Martinsburg. His wife, Mrs. Nancy Jane (Longenecker) Blake, died eight years ago. Mr. Blake has traveled very extensively since his retirement. Besides many trips to different states he made twelve trips to California where he spent the winters. Mr. Blake is still hale and hearty and says he never felt better in his life.
