Afterword
After writing the preceding material I was looking through the Carroll Centennial Souvenir booklet and was struck by the connections between the following photo and my memories.
After writing the preceding material I was looking through the Carroll Centennial Souvenir booklet and was struck by the connections between the following photo and my memories.
This is a picture of the Carroll Blues Baseball Team. Pictured are John Kistler, Elmer Arnett, Charles Kistler, Will King, W. A. Sands, Wes Rowe, Mace Winters, James “Monk” Stith, Homer Coffman, Charles Holms, Jim Kiner and Ray Gorham.
I figure the photo was taken shortly before the turn of the century, about 1898. My memoir years occur about 50 years later. Yet there are time threads connecting the two that says something about what it is like to grow up in a small town.
In Neighborhood and Neighbors we met Mace Winter’s widow Effie.
On Oberle Avenue we met Charlie Kistler.
On Mill Street we met John Kistler.
On Canal Street we met James “Monk” Stith’s widow Lizzy.
And on High Street I was kissed by Jim Kiner.
We didn’t meet Elmer Arnett in my memoir but he was my Great Uncle. He was the brother of my Grandmother Martha Arnett Ridgway. And their mother was my Great Grandmother Elizabeth Boyd Arnett who lived in Carroll and died in 1921.
Another interesting observation about this photo is the fact that major league baseball did not start to become racially integrated until 1947, about fifty years later.
