Frederick Fair Draws Huge Crowd in Rain Event
Fifty years ago the Frederick Fair drew an enormous crowd despite rain. The first B and O train brought 640 passengers. Mystic Shriners from Washington arrived around 10 am. Admiral Schley could not attend. Gambling games on the grounds aroused surprise as swindling in nature. Two valuable horses owned by Gilmer Schley were found dead and injured in a quarry near Schley's lime kiln. A scholarship examination at Charlotte was won by Lee Hammond of New Market for a three year term. The Arnold Steck Company produced Under The Lion's Paw at the Cir Opera House, though seats were scarce.
