This Day in History: 1928-10-27
The annual Halloween party given by Mrs. Havemeyer for the residents of Darlington was a great success, despite the poor weather. Mrs. Havemeyer gives prizes for the best costumes. Particularly impressive among the adults was Miss Library holding her touch, a female impersonator and a young man who wins every year, dressed this time as Uncle Ikey. The children winning prizes were George and Martha Washington and the Gold Dust Twins. Everyone appreciates the wonderful dance music, the decorations and the plentiful refreshments all provided by Mrs. Havemeyer. (Bristow)
