BUCYRUS CENTENNIAL
The centennial of the city of Bucyrus,
Ohio, was
most appropriately celebrated in a
program of exercises
extending from October 2 to 5, 1921.
There were ad-
dresses by Honorable Harry L. Davis,
Governor of
Ohio, Honorable Hugh L. Nichols, former
Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court of Ohio, Honorable
Benson W.
Hough, Judge of the Supreme Court, Mrs.
Frank H.
Alfred, great-granddaughter of Samuel
Norton, one of
the founders of Bucyrus, Nevin O.
Winter, the well-
known writer of Toledo, Ohio, Honorable
Smith W.
Bennett and other prominent citizens.
The exercises
throughout were interspersed with music
selected espe-
cially for the occasion and this
feature of the program
culminated in a grand musical
entertainment by the
Bucyrus centennial chorus on Thursday
evening,
October 5. This was repeated on the
following evening.
An interesting feature of the musical
program was the
rendition of Colonel Kilbourne's Bucyrus
Song by the
centennial chorus. The words of this
song are found
on a subsequent page of the QUARTERLY.
The entire program of the centennial
may be said
to have reached its height of interest
and enthusiasm in
the remarkable pageant which was
presented on Tues-
