 A Centenarian Harvester at West Rainton. - It will be interesting to our 
 readers to know that at West Rainton there is now living an old lady, 
 named Jane Thompson, widow of the late Mr Philip Thompson, farmer, who is in her hundredth year. She is possessed of all her 
 faculties, is remarkably active, and takes great interest in the 
 management of her farm, on which she has resided for upwards of sixty years. During the recent hay harvest she was daily in the fields, and 
 at present may be seen watching with much interest the ingathering of her 
 wheat crops. Mrs Thompson often takes journeys to Sunderland and other towns by rail, and on Sunday last attended the Wesleyan 
 Chapel at Rainton.
