Lawn Fete at Perry homestead deemed a sweeping success
The Lawn Fete at the Perry homestead Silver Creek drew thousands for a well orchestrated event. Italian Mandolin Club and Merreshoff Marine Band entertained under trees and electric lights. Dozens of booths showcased crafts, food, and novelty attractions as the debt committee of Bristol Y M C A praised organizers led by A F Shepard and Frederick I Johnson. The celebration featured a Venetian Canal explosion and a family pig weight guess, with profits benefiting the local Y M C A debt drive.
