Ritter, B. - 1881

The Shot Gun.--
The pigeon shooting match at the Kemper House last Saturday was more largely attended than on the previous Saturday and was attended with more gratifying results.  The birds were not as lively as could have been wished, but the day was faultless.  Everything was passed off without a hitch; he best of good feeling prevailed throughout.  In the first match Dr. Reamsnyder bore off the honors, but was closely followed by B. Ritter, who killed all his birds - one falling out of bounds.  A. Bollinger drew out after his fourth shot.

In the second match Milton Hallacher stepped to the front, as he did the Saturday before.  As will be seen by the score, Mr. H. just saved himself by a clean score.  Owing to the lateness of the hour, ties were not shot off.

The following is the score:
C. Butzer…………………1 0 0 1 0        |    A. Adams…………………0 1 1 1 0
