The Nevada Appeal yesterday had a look back at the Morning Appeal from 1878, with stories therein about the 4th of July party and the Sutro Tunnel. They also had a look forward to August 16, when downtown Carson will be celebrating the Sesquicentennial with a variety of events. They linked to Fred Nietz’ eventsnevada.com, where there is a schedule of events posted for that day. Apparently Abraham Lincoln will be making an appearance, so we should all show up for that.
