Shaefferstown News Highlights Lime Use and Local Events
Lime is increasingly favored as fertilizer with unprecedented fall burning in the region. St Pauls Reformed Church saw a large communion attendance and over $36 raised for benevolent causes. The Rev A J Bachman and wife recently settled in the parsonage, while widow Kratzer’s 87 years obituary noted lack of life insurance. Lebanon fair drew big crowds, with top horse racing and Carlisle Indians showcasing archery and music. Cold autumn mornings and evasive pilferage worried locals as dope rumors circulated. A near fatal gas incident at Frank Evans household prompted a dramatic rescue, ending with Bricker discovering his missing clothes after a comic scramble.
