Slaughter Beach


phere and made the day just right
for the crowds who look forward to
Big Thursday from year to year as
their own day at the beach. All re-
ports conflict as to the number of
people here for the day. In the by

horse and buggy one could make a
fairly accurate count of the people,
but automobile parking can be so
compact that one does not appreci-
ate lust how many there can be. The
"strong man" was here and venders
of all kinds. Really, it was big
day.
