Imad Yaacoub Haddad

... Joy came twofold on the feast of Epiphany, the sixth of last January, for a boy was born to Mrs. Juliette Haddad and Mr. Yaacoub Haddad, and they named him "Imad," in blessed allusion to the divine baptism...

The birth took place at the American Hospital at the hands of Dr. Ibrahim Mufarrij — and it was a surprise to everyone, for the birth came three weeks ahead of the appointed date; but the child and his mother left the hospital for home enjoying perfect health, and were received with cries of welcome and joy by family and neighbors, foremost among them Imad's two little sisters, Aida and May.

Our heartfelt congratulations to Imad's mother and father, and to him health and long life.
