Submitted by Mike Winner



This is a file of local news articles appearing in the TULLY, N.Y., TIMES issue of June 15, 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.

Church in East Syracuse.
 

It is expected that the newly appointed assistant pastor of St. Agnes’ will
preach his first sermon on Sunday, June 23. The Catholic Sun says of him.
“Father Sheehan was born in Tully about twenty-five years ago. His college
course preliminary to his entrance to the Rochester Seminary, was spent in St.
Michael’s College in Toronto. There he stayed until he was 20 years old, when
his course at the institution was ended. By his brilliant work in the college,
he not only won the approval of the instructors, receiving honorary degrees,
but secured the institution’s highest honors. For this he was given a
scholarship to the American college at Rome, Italy. Father Sheehan chose St.
Bernard’s Seminary as the institution in which he would complete his course,
“That he will ably fill the place left vacant by the Rev. Father Moore and act
as a most able assistant to the Rev. Father Ryan, pastor of the church, is
gathered from a letter received from Bishop Ludden. In the letter Father
Sheehan is given very high recommendations both for his ability and the
earnestness which he has displayed in pursuit of a proper equipment for the
duties of the priesthood.”
Father Sheehan will celebrate solemn high mass as St. Leo’s church here
Sunday, June 16.

Locals.

Mrs. Charles Davis died at 4.30 a. m. Tuesday at her home at Davis grove at
the foot of Otisco lake as the result of an over dose of morphine. The drug
was taken between 7 and 8 o’clock on Monday morning and Dr. Barker was
immediately called. Mrs. Davis had been in poor health for several years,
having a chronic ailment and being in a very nervous condition. It is said
that several times during the past year Mrs. Davis told members of the family
that she had some morphine hidden away and that she intended to take it some
time. She was 43 years of age.

Edward Payson Weston, the pedestrian, who broke the record between
Philadelphia and New York in May of 1906 and now in his 69th year, plans to
duplicate or excel his performance of forty years ago, when he walked from
Portland, Me., to Chicago, a distance of 1,256 miles, in thirty days.
According to his plans, he will start from the postoffice in Portland at 5
o’clock on October 29 and traveling over the route he used before will reach
the Chicago postoffice at 2 o’clock November 28. As he does not walk on
Sunday, this schedule gives him only twenty-six days to cover the distance and
making an average of fifty miles a day necessary. Mr. Weston will be
accompanied by a party of newspaper men, who will use an automobile. He passes
through parts of ten States and more than 300 cities.

BASEBALL

Tully Wins From Cortland.

The Cortland Independents came to Tully on Saturday last and played the Tully
Independents on the high school grounds and were defeated by a score of 10 to
3. The game was a good one being at times fast and exciting. The features were
Sanford’s pitching for Tully, he holding Cortland to four hits in eight
innings. In the ninth Pierce relieved him arid pitched the last innings
allowing Cortland one hit and then a double play shut them off.
Another feature was the heavy batting of the Tully team, they making eleven
hits, three or them being two-base hits and one three-base, McGuire, second
base for Tully, also made a good play. With second base held by a runner, the
next man for Cortland tried to drop the ball just over the infield. McGuire
ran back after it and while running, slipped and fell, but throwing up his
right hand, caught the ball and while lying on the ground, threw with a short
arm throw to Kelch on second and almost caught the runner, who was off his
base, but got back just in time. The Cortland boys played a good game but were
unable to connect with the ball when hits meant runs. The only good play made
by Cortland was the triple play against Tully, aided by stupid base running on
the part of Tully, when Cortland caught three men off bases and bagged all
three. This makes two straight wins for Tully and it is hoped they will not
lose a game this season.

A good crowd were present and saw an excellent game with plenty or excitement.

not see the first of the game as it started early in the afternoon. It is
intended to start all games on time.

The Cortland correspondent of the the Post Standard and also the Cortland
papers were away off when they said that the Independents won the game here
Saturday. At no time was the game in doubt.

Leroy Russell, formerly second baseman for the Tully team, is working for the
Western Union Telegraph company, at Hoboken, N. J. “Jack” was missed in the
game game Saturday

The Tully team will not go to Cortland Saturday as previously announced.

Sanford, who is playing with Oswego of the Empire League, won his game with
Fulton Monday, striking out five men and had one run to his credit. The score
stood 7 to 3. Fulton tried two pitchers.

The Oswego fans are very much pleased with Earl Sanford’s pitching. The Oswego
Times of Tuesday says of the game with Fulton on Monday which Oswego won 7 to
3: “Sandford’s two wallops were well placed but came inopportunely, as a
hitting pitcher he is the goods.” “Sanford pitched great ball, and was as cool
as an ice box.”

Catcher Lydon of the Banner A. C., who played against the Hanover Stars at
Syracuse on Sunday, got in the way of one of Jimmie Pierce’s swift in-shoots
and was laid out, the ball striking him in the head. The game was then stopped
as the Banners had no other catcher. The game is to be played over again later
on.
