Fortieth Memorial Fragments From Diller Nebraska July Celebrations
Forty years ago George Bixby traveled from Chicago due to his father's illness while green apples sold at 10c a peck in Diller. Fourth of July honors were held at Rock Creek with Rev Grossman, S M Bailey, and Peter Jansen addressing crowds. The Harbine celebration drew the largest attendance, with baseball, horse racing, a dance, fireworks, and the Diller Cornet Band in new uniforms praised for music. Odell’s 40-year recall described a parade, picnic, greased pig, and a ball game with Diller, plus praise for the band and uniforms with blue caps and silver-braided coats.
