A LONG LIFE
LIVED IN FIVE REIGNS Nearly all of us have lived in two reigns, most of us have lived in three, some of us have lived in four, and at least one of us has lived in five. She was an old lady of 107, Miss Janetta Hynde, who has just passed a\yay at her home in West Kirby. She remembers going into mourning as a child on the death of William the Fourth, and she went into mourning on the death of George the Fifth —two mournings across a span of a century. The bells of the parish church rang their full peal on her 107th birthday last September.
