INVITATIONS TO THE CENTENNIAL MASQUERADE AT WHEELOCK'S HALL

This bit of history was photocopied and sent to Editor Florence Hutchison by Mrs. Emily Sievers.  
She sent the original invitational to the Scott County Historical Society. Donna Kilroy, Scott County
ILGenWeb Coordinator, re transcibed these for use on this page.  Thanks, Donna!

We think this is a unique document which will benefit many of our family historians who may have 
had ancestors or collateral relatives attending this Masquerade. Wouldn't it be great to see what 
kind of costumes and masks all of these people wore in 1876 in Winchester, Illinois?  Perhaps 
researchers could find some old catalogues with clothing designs for this period of time that might 
"give us a peek" into the costumes of that historic era.
