Nov. 1900
Rev. Dr. Daniel J. Hauer, who has just celebrated the ninety-fourth anniversary of his birth at his home in Hanover, Pa., is the oldest Lutheran minister in America.
With perfect health, in full possession of all his faculties, his interest in current events as lively as ever, Dr Hauer is spending his old age in calm enjoyment and soothing retrospect.
He is surrounded by his children, his grandchildren and his great grandchildren, who lovingly anticipate his few wants and brighten the evening of his days with their affectionate solicitude.
The aged clergyman was born in the famous old town of Frederick, Maryland.

Solomon when arrayed in all his royal glory never wore a shirt waist.
The worst Christian watchers are those who are taking cat-naps.
To repel one's cross is to make it heavier. — Amiel.
Goliath was the first man to wear a bang on his forehead.
The dice of God are always loaded.
When a fellow borrows trouble there is often the devil to pay.
Too often we value outward show more than inward worth.
