Martinsville Republican, 7 January 1886:

"Birthday Dinner.
Uncle Balam Bolin was born in eastern Kentucky, on the south fork of the Kentucky river, in Clay county in 1829. When four years old emigrated with his parents to Morgan county, Indiana, in which county he has lived continually ever since. On August 10, 1862, he enlisted in the 67th Regt., Ind. volunteers, was taken prisoner with his regiment at Manfordsville, Kentucky, about September 15th or 20th. While a paroled prisoner he was taken sick, and confined to the hospital some eight month, and then discharged on account of disability, for which he is now drawing a pension. On the 4th inst. being the 57th anniversary of his birthday, the boys decoyed the old man off several miles into the woods for the ostensible purpose to hunt rabbits, continuing their chase until about noon, in the meantime his friends and relatives to the number of sixty or seventy had assembled at his residence and prepared a sumptous dinner; it looked as though enough to feed a regiment. When uncle Baalam got in about noon with his game expecting to have a roast and was ushered into the crowd, saw the feast prepared for him, to say the least the surprise was complete. Uncle Balam -- well he laughed and cried all at the same time. After all had partaken of the feast and passed the usual compliments, the afternoon was spent in having a general good time. We hope he may live to enjoy many such happy birthdays."
