Town of Tully

Submitted by Mike Winner



This is a file of local news articles appearing in the TULLY, N.Y., TIMES issue of April 27, 1907.  This old newspaper was scanned and translated into a searchable computer data base, so that names and events of local interest might be more readily available for genealogists and historians who work with computers.

Surnames and places are for local items of interest only, and include those items appearing in legal notices, local news items, correspondence, classified advertisements, obituaries, and the like. Names, places, and events given in national and international news items or in large block advertisements are not included.

The names and places are exactly as they appear in the newspaper. During the scanning and translation processes, the computer was trained to recognize the typography of the newspaper and many words were questioned and cross-checked for accuracy. A subsequent checking of spelling revealed a number of apparent errors, but, except for a few obvious and very minor typographical errors, no attempt was made to correct apparent misspellings of any word, or to change the editorial style of the paper, such as capitalization or punctuation. A few surnames have variations, such as an “ei - ie” transposition, or a missing “e” at the end of the name. Searches should take into account possible misspellings.

Indexes of surnames and places are provided at the end of the file for a quick reference.

BASE BALL TEAM ASSURED

Meeting held Tuesday evening at Citizen’s Club--Officers Elected and Money
Subscribed--Will be known As the Tully Base Ball Club.

        Notwithstanding the unfavorable weather, a number of citizens met at the
Citizen’s Club rooms on Tuesday evening and took preliminary steps toward
securing a base ball team here for the season now about to open.
        Dr. Bliss called the meeting to order and Dr. Leonard was selected for the
chairman. “Than” Pierce was clerk. J.M. Slayton was elected president of the
organization and the club will be known as the Tully Base Ball Club. J.T.
Crofoot was elected secretary and treasurer.
        A committee on the solicitation of funds was elected, namely James Pierce,
jr., C.P. Remore and F.J. Carr. These gentlemen, together with J.T. Crofoot
and J.M. Slayton were named as a board of directors.
        The club will probably be made up [of] last year’s Tully Farms team, with the
possible exception of Sanford, Russell and George Tuttle. Tuttle and Russell
are non-residents now and Sanford has signed with Geneva. Both he and Russell
may, however, play with Tully if arrangements can be made. It is intended to
secure Gaughn and Kelch of Syracuse, who have played with last year’s team.
        The Solvay Process company have contributed liberally and will permit the men
off-time, as last year. All that is necessary now is for the citizens to
contribute liberally and Tully will have a winning team for 1907. Meet the
committee with liberal contributions. We may have a game on decoration day.
