At 5:30 p.m. Sept. 7, the Friends of Elisha Morgan Mansion will present “An Evening at Milders Inn” at the Morgan Mansion city park, 6181 Ross Rd. The cost is $40 per person.

        “We'll authentically go back in time to Milders Inn,” said Helen Wessel, a group spokeswoman. “We hope people will join us and live one evening in the early 20th century.”

        The inn, which stood on the northwest corner of Nilles Road at Pleasant Avenue (U.S. 127), served locally grown food and attracted many Reds players from the 1939-1940 teams.

        At an outside garden, songwriter Dud Mecum played piano and Ray Milders sang. The place peaked from 1920 to 1942.

        Under an open tent, the Friends will serve a Milders menu specialty -- fried chicken, mashed potatoes, fresh vegetables and homemade dessert.

        John Bercaw will perform as Dud Mecum and Bill Walters as Ray Milders. Dud's daughter, Ginny Mecum (formerly of the Cal Collins Trio), will sing songs of the era.

        Mrs. Wessel would like to hear from people who've heard stories about Milders Inn. She may be reached at 868-9829.

        For further information on the event, call 863-0083.
