Pioneer Days in Montana Stories and Minstrels

A long oral reminiscence recounts Butte entertainment fads old and the crowd dynamics of rough venues. It recalls a failed minstrel group in Loeber hall, a bungled serenade by George Todd, wild funerals in Beartown and Deer Lodge, and a minister’s humorous early wedding tale with a skeptical crowd. The piece blends recollections of miners, gamblers, and pioneers with colorful city memory and a parson known as the peoples preacher.
