MORRISTOWN HORSE SHOW HELD IN RAIN; Children's Pony Jumping Class One of the New Features of Exhibition New York Times, 8 October 1915: "Five children, none over 15 years, took part in the pony jumping class...Miss Ruth Brady rode Miss Helen Fiske's Maidstone, with which she took the reserve...." Could this portrait be the same equestrian Miss Ruth Brady, a few years later? www.christies.com/lotFinder/lot_details.aspx?intObjectID=...

Luther and Nicholas Tucker were the sons of Carll Tucker (1881-1956; Yale 1904) and the former Marcia Myers Brady (b. 1884). The Tuckers were members of the Rumson Country Club of Rumson NJ. Given Marcia's maiden name, it's probably reasonable to assume that the Brady children and Tucker children here were cousins. Luther Tucker (1909-2000) also attended Yale, and earned a divinity degree from the Episcopal Theological School. He was based in Shanghai while regional secretary of th World Student Christian Association (1938-1940), and became rector of the Indian Hill Church in Cincinnati. He married Josephine Pullman, and was father of four (Elizabeth, Marcia, Naomi, and Luther Jr.). He died while swimming off Old Lyme in the summer of 2000, age 91. articles.courant.com/2000-07-25/news/0007250608_1_seven-g...

Also, six children, but only five names? So one of these is a mystery girl!

Millicent Vernon Hammond Fenwick (1910-1992) became a Congresswoman in 1975. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millicent_Fenwick The child next to her might be her sister Mary Stevens Hammond.

You're right about the flirting! Straight to the big sizes to look at all the delicious details, especially the glances and giggles, captured forever - what a delight. The pattern Mass is fascinating too, it reminds me of Buddhists circling stupas. Thanks again for sharing the library's collection, it's truly a national treasure!

I expect this cargo ship was blessed shortly before/after the dance. (As we see continues at the Pattern in those Irish Times photos)

Love the girl on the wall playing the squeezebox.

Beautiful!

Her Royal Highness, in her speech, said: "I have small doubt that the people of Mackay and district will overcome their future problems with that same energy and determination which was shown by their pioneer forefathers who settled here in the closing years of last century”. Queen Elizabeth was also reported to have said in conversation: "I have loved every minute of it, but I don't have time to see everything I would like to”. At 12.05 pm, the royal couple left the showgrounds and headed for the Mackay Airport, then to Casey Avenue, where the Mackay Pipe Band performed. There were 3000-plus people at the farewell to the royal couple, who were leaving for Rockhampton on a TAA Royal Convair. Source: www.couriermail.com.au/news/queensland/mackay/making-hist...
