Knows How to Shoot
The Daily Mail (Indiana), 15 Aug 1900


A girl of 14, Lucille Mulhall by name, divided honors with Gov. Roosevelt at the rough riders' reunion in Oklahoma. She gave an exhibition of her prowess with the lasso and rifle, adn was congratulated by the Governor, who said not one of his rough riders could do better. Last year Lucille took premiums for lassoing wild steers against competitors from Canada to Mexico. She can also play Chopin, make a mayonnaise dressing and quote Browning. These latter accomplishments are a concession to her mother. The reunion was Miss Mulhall's last appearance as a cowgirl. She will soon go to a convent school to be made into a young lady after the ideas of her mother, who is a cultured Southern woman.
