Amherst Woman Medal Winning Scottish Dancer
A Crown Hill Avenue resident in Amherst, Mrs. James Henry, is a medal-winning Scottish dancer who keeps her trophies in a cedar chest.

She has performed in Elyria, Lorain, and Cleveland, praising the sailor's hornpipe as the most graceful while noting a slight sword contact disqualification rule.
