Early Nebraska
Fourth Recounted
‘Creditable’ Public
Exercises
Although Christmas and other
holidays frequently were honored
more in the breach than in the
observance by the pioneers of
Nebraska, the Fourth of July
seems to have been almost al
ways celebrated as one of the
great days of the year.
The Nebraska Advertiser for
July 5. 1856. carried an account
of the grand and glorious Fourth
at the bustling river settlement
of Brownville, just one hundred
soars ago The early account is
reproduced here:
“The Fourth of July passed off
in the happiest manner. The at
tendance from our own and ad
joining counties of this territory
and Missouri, was large. Good
feeling, sociability, harmony and
a ‘good time in general.’ was the
order of the day. The public ex
ercises were creditable indeed
The vocal music, under the su
pervision of Capt. Thurber and
lady was as fine as any we ever
listened to. The Declaration of
Independence was read by Mr.
Lake, in a clear, audible and im
pressive manner In regard to the
dinner, all that is necessary to
say, is that ‘Uncle Ben White’
presided over getting up and ar
ranging the edibles. All the del
icacies and substantials of the
season weighed down the tables:
Buffalo meat, venison, barba
cued ox, roast sheep, hogs and
pigs enough to have fed the
whole territory. After ‘doing jus
tice to the tables,’ an hour passed
agreeably in delivering senti
ments and responses Toward the
decline of the day the company
dispersed, all feeling that it was
■good to be here.’
“The young folks had been for
some days making arrangements
for the ball of the season; and In
the evening the ‘beauty and gal
lantry’ of our place, Rockport and
Nemaha City, assembled at M’
Pherson’s hall, a new and com
modius building, rushed through
to completion for the occasion.
The ‘fiddle and bow' entered
llP°n the performance of duties
devolving upon them in celebrat
ing the day — the merry dance
commenced and continued until
toward the 'wee hours,' when all
I
repaired to the large room below,
where C. W Wheeler had pre
paired a supper. Here was an
other display of good things; un
surpassed bv any other supper
we sat down to All know how
the wimmin folks’ at the ’Buck
eye House’ get up the ’good things
i to eat.' The dance ’went on’ un
til broad daylight’ and the 'boys
went home with the girls in the
morning' Altogether .it was a
day long to be remembered in
Brownvillc.”
