Miss Dollie Brazill and Mrs. J. W. McKane of Omaha, who is visiting at the Brazil home, decided that the wind was just right Monday afternoon to take a fine sail on the lake and both being expert sailors they were able to maneuver their boat about the lake in a manner to excite the envy of all the other sailors on the lake. However, when they were ready to return home they were at a loss how to start on the homeward course and as a result were compelled to land near the well and started to walk around the lake, via town, to their home. They arrived here about 10 o'clock and after refreshing themselves at Gavins' restaurant, made the balance of the trip home with a horse and buggy.
