The mode of travel she referred to was horse and buggy and quite often horseback. Members were picked up all along the way and attending a session was quite an accomplishment requiring ad vance planning with much de pending on the weather. Another amusing story she told was how the local brewery in those days poured their waste down over a convenient hillside which bordered on a nice enrn pasture. Neighbors found it .nec essary to watch the family cow or she would come home 'tip.": ' from indulging in the mash.
