Biggest Lawrence county reunion draws large soldier crowd
The Sumner Lawrence county reunion set records with 230 total soldiers on the second day, six Civil War veterans and three Spanish War veterans, plus lively scenes including the band and displays. Mayor Jones closed gambling spindles on day one. H F Wheeler led arrangements but fell ill. A local obit notes William Adam Price, born April 24 1868 in Lakin township, died July 20 1901, leaving a wife and four children and a two thousand dollar Woodmen pension.
