Ole Bull


Ole (pronounced OH-lay) Bull was a colorful entertainer who visted Richburg.  With a company of fifty musicians, he journeyed from New York, via Bath, stopping at the Richardson Tavern.  It posed quite a problem including finding beds and food for so many but Mrs. Richardson sent out to the settlers for assistance and a fine supper was prepared for them.  Afterwards Ole Bull and his musicians played for dancing.

    The Fall Home Show is sponsored the Heritage AFlame and the information that I got was that Pampered Chef, Mary Kay, Cakes by Brenda and many more were going to be there. The last I heard was there could be possibly 50 or more vendors there.
