Thanks Nancy, for posting this. You've given me a glimpse into what my family was doing on a sunny holiday over a hundred years ago. And a new clue - they must have moved from Whitehead to the 'Center' of town. I've got a collection of these columns, but I had not seen this one. > Mr. & Mrs. Clinton BRASIE & family spent the 4th at the home of his > parents at the Center. Gail, Ohio
