Pearsall, Nellie - 1898

Rode on Their Wheels.

Saturday morning at four o’clock, a number of our young folks left Jeannette on their wheels, bound for Kissell Springs, a distance of thirty-six miles.  At 9:30 they breakfasted at Ligonier, having made the thirty mile run in five and one-half hours.  {text illegible} reached their destination later, very tired but still enthusiastic.  They returned home Tuesday afternoon by rail, and all were pleased with the manner in which they had spent their glorious Fourth.  Those of the party were the Misses Lilly Blaze, Nellie and Elizabeth Pearsall, Messrs. Joe Blaze and Fred Ewald.
