Sunday Wheeling Criticised

New York, 1895

The Rev. W. P. Ferguson, in his remarks to the Methodist Sunday school at Patchogue on Sunday afternoon, severely criticised Sunday century runs participated in by cyclists from neighboring cities. He says that these runs to Patchogue are a nuisance and a desecration of the Sabbath.
