Butler was about the q,iietest place
that one could have found Y Monday;
July 4th. No celebration had been
planned and those who remained in
town were compelled to stayin the
house to keep out of the rain which
fell during the greater part Of the
day. Many made an carry start for
Nevada and some few to Rich Hill
and Amsterdam, where celebrations
were scheduled to be held. But those
who failed to get an early start were
doomed to spend the day at home IS
rain commenced falling about 10
O'Clock and in a few minutes the
roads were impassable. Several of
those who had started to Neyaday
where the Butler. team was billed 20
play ball that afternoon, abandoned
their automobiles at Rich Hill and
took the train for the remainder Of
the trip. Some Of those who did
finish the trip in their cars failed to
get back until some time Tuesday.
The Butler band. IS strong. under
the direction Of Pro-, Eisk, went to
Nevada, where they furnished the
music for the celebration. It is need
less to say that they made their usual
hit as that is a foregone conclusion.
Herbert WeMott, the vocal soloist,
sang several songs in his usual in
imitable manner.
