Jan Walkington of Arlington Heights provided music. Alice Peet of Ringwood cut the wedding cake, Terri Benoy of Chicago was in charge of the guest book and Mary Kay Diedrich of McHenry presided at the serving table.. The bride was educated at McHenry high school and the Methodist Hospital School of Nursing in Madison. She is employed by the Kishwaukee Valley Medical Group, Woodstock. Mr. Adams graduated from Marian Central, high school, served with the Army, a year in Vietnam, and is now employed by Cristy Construction, Wonder Lake. t About 100 people froin all parts of the county filled the meeting room of Memorial hall, the American Legion building in Richmond, on Wednesday everting, April 16, at the spring meeting of the McHenry County Historical society. Everett Thomas, vice-president of the organization, greeted guests and introduced Richard Richardson, the director from Richmond in charge of the meeting, who, in turn, introduced several people who described historical items they had brought to display. William Gardiner of Solon Mills showed many interesting wood-working tools that had been collected by his father and grandfather, liietools were made of hardwood and'had been used for shaping the fancy trim that was popular in houses during the 1800's. Bessie Sebastian of Woodstock had formerly lived in the Keystone area of Richmond township, and she showed school books which had been used by her ancestors there just after the Civil War. She also read excerpts from letters and records describing their journey from Cambridge, England, to the Richmond area, where they settled about 1850. The journey had taken considerable time, since they were forced to rebuild their wagons and dwellings in which they had resided at other stops along the way. The account of life in the new country, with its experiences and hardships, was very interesting. One especially interesting story was of an early settler who traded his jackknife to an Indian for 100 acres of land. Charles Eldredge, Jr., of Richmond showed a portion of the collection of Indian artifacts collected by his grandfather during the period from 1875 to his death in 1931. There were spearheads and arrowheads which were over 200 years old, and some were as old as 800 years; stones for scraping skins, some meant to be used with a wooden handle, and some older ones which were for use by hand; axes, or stone mallets, which had deep notches for affixing handles, one axe weighing about 10 lbs. A stone club which Mr. Eldredge showed had been identified by the Field Museum as being of the Pre-Columbian period, used in hand to hand combat in times before Columbus arrived in America. Some fine, small stone carvings of animals were also known to be Pre-Columbian. All of the stone instruments and implements shown had been found in the Richmond- Burton area. Mrs. William Shotliff of Spring Grove showed a land grant dated 1843, and a mustache cup which had belonged to her husband's grandfather. Its age was estimated at close to 100 years, since the grandfather had been dead for 70 years. Mrs. Agnes Weber of Spring Grove displayed her mother's wedding dress and the picture of the wedding in which the dress was worn, and also the marriage licenses of both her parents and her husband's parents, and articles of clothing worn many years ago. John McDonald of Richmond demonstrated a corn-shock binder which coyld be used by one man working alone in a field. It was a rope with a mock-type end which was slung around the corn and which hooked to hold the corn in place until it was banded. He also showed a "birdstone" carved from a two-toned piece of rock. This tyi'w of Indian carving is believed to have been brought by the glacier to this area from the far Northwest, since it is not representative of the carvings of local Indian tribes. Robert Thompson of McHenry showed a "Bridgebuilder's Square" which was most unusual, since this type of square was used only for a short time, and its use was discontinued about 1910. Fred Schroederhad set up a typical old-fashioned drug store counter on a table, and proceeded to pretend to fill prescriptions using oldtime methods and appliances. He told stories which emphasized the importance of the drug store to the community, and of some of the fascinating and sometimes frightening things which had happened during his lifetime as a pharmacist in the community. He showed a picture of his drug store when it was known as O'Brien's Pharmacy and advertised as the largest in McHenry county. Mrs. Richardson called the audience's attention to many items which were displayed whose donors were not pre sent. An enlarged photograph of a lovely painting which had been painted by an itinerant farmworker about ~ o56 , showed the old mill-pond in Richmond, and the way the town looked at that time. The pictures in two 1872 Atlases of McHenry county which are on display had etchings of homes and farms, while photographs were used in the' 1908 Atlas which was also on display. Mr. Richardson told an amusing story about the habits of the turkeys that used to be one of the main products of the Richmond area, and showed a horseshoe with a rubber plug, or bumper which had been left by a city horse that had been shipped there to help in cutting ice. The mill-pond and area lakes are spring-fed and ice from them was in demand for Chicago. Horses were shipped out by box-car to help in cut- Old Fashioned Pitcher Glass Apr. 30 Baked Chicken COMPLETE Salad, Potatoes, Roll 79$ Sloppy Joes 19t Last Wed. of each month 6:00 P.M. to 11:00 P.M.'

Once there, the rubber- bumpered shoes of the horses, which were fine on the brick pavements of the city, had to be changed for a kind that would grip when working on ice. Mr. Richardson also showed a book of poems by Dr. S. Fillmore Bennett, who practiced medicine in Richmond, and was the composer of" The Sweet By and By". A beautiful and enlightening movie made in Williamsburg, Va.. was shown. It described the steps involved in the handmaking of wooden baskets, and the many uses to which baskets have been put over the years. Homemade cakes and cookies and coffee were then served by a committee of American Legion auxiliary ladies, from a table appropriately decorated with an antique coffee-grinder and ceramic high-button shoes filled with yellow and white daisies.

I YoofBaptistChurchWefcomesYou-Apr. 27-May ft Leonard Morris, junior student at Oklahoma Baptist university in Shawnee, Okla., and John Lynch, Sunday school superintendent, participated in plans for the Crusade of the American services in First Baptist church of McHenry. Fifteen-Day Revival At City Church Sunday, April 27, marks the beginning date for a fifteen-day revival crusade to be conducted at the First Baptist church of McHenry. Preparation and planning has been in operation for more than a year leading up to this series of revival and evangelistic services. Rev. Carl Jacobs, missionary from the Alton industrial area of Illinois, will be the visiting preacher. Beginning Sunday, May 3, Earl Halloway, minister of music from the First Baptist church of Memphis, Tenn., will be leading congregational singing, conducting the local Baptist choir and presenting solos during each evening service. "This revival is part of a larger effort known as the 'Crusade of the Americas'", explained John Lynch, deacon of the local Baptist church and director of the educational program for the church. "The entire year of 1969 has been designated as the year for special emphasis upon Jesus Christ as is evidenced by the theme of the Crusade, 'Christ the only Hope'. The emphasis will not conclude with the revival", Lynch continued, "but we expect it to be a very vital part of the effort". " Though revivals may today be considered somewhat 'oldfashioned"', said Pastor Chappell, "we have found they continue to meet a need which seems basic in the lives of people. From personal experience as well as from Bible study, I have found that Christians periodically need to renew their relationship with and vows to God." Services will begin each evening at 7:30 p.m. A time of congregational singing will be followed by Bible study and preaching. The public is invited to participate in ar\y and all of the services. As an additional part of tie revival emphasis, a picture will be taken of the First Baptist church this Sunday morning at 10:30. "The church is the people" , explained the pastor when asked why the picture would be made on Sunday morning. "This is the time when more of our people are present. We encourage everyone connected with the Baptist church in any way to be present for the ceremony**, concluded the Rev. Virgle L. C happell.
