A peculiar puff and rattle was heard and all eyes were on the road to see where the strange noise came from. When the strange noise came nearer t hey saw a carriage without horses coming like a mighty wind. And lo! It was Fred and his family.

This was the first automobile on these grounds and what a treat for the children when later in the day, as many as could be crowded in the car were given a ride."
