60 Years Ago
July 7, 1887
Turner celebrated tha glor
i o u s Fou th. Gen. Slocum
delivered the address. The
band from Ft. Randall was
there and discoursed soul
stiriing strains. I. W. Martin,
formerly of O’Neill, aLo ad
dressed the gathering. Mr.
and Mrs. Finley Lyons, of
O’Neill, aided them with their
vocal music. The general
said there were between 800
and 1,000 people there, and a
more orderly crowd he has
not seen in many a year. The
celebration was under the
auspices of the GAR boys and
was participated in by the
people of Turner, Greeley,
Bruch Creek, Chelsea and a
good many from Paddock and
along the Niobrara. O’Neill
celebrants were scattered all
over the country, meanwhile,
and all report good times
where they were.
Tom Campbell, as deputy
postmaster at Shamrock, is
the right man in the right
place. He is accomodating
to all. For instance: A blo
oming young lady timidly but
in a very sweet tone of voice
inquires, “Is there a letter
for me?” Tom gives her a
bewitching smile that com
pensates for the absence of
the expected missive, and, al
though there are only two
mails a day. she calls at least
five times daily. Hence, we
again say, the right man in
the right place.
An Indian band from Gen

“The Little Tycoon,” given
at the opera house last Thurs
day evening by the musical
Union, proved to be the
crowning effort of this or
ganization. Many of the Jap
anese costumes were original
and striking. The solo parts
without exception were car
ried in a manner that would
do credit to a professional.
Among those we wish to
mention: Miss Tess O’SuL

‘Teddy.”
A large crowd from O’Neill
