Person:Molly Scott (1)

Hugh Scott settled on the northeast quarter of section 28, in Center township in 1870, and with his family, now resides in Sioux City. He was a resident of Center township for many years, eleven of his children having been born in that township.Three of Mr. Scott's daughters, Mollie, Jeanne, and Bessie, have obtained a large and enviable reputation as musicians. Mollie has given piano recitals in most of the large cities of the United States. Bessie as a violinist has toured the country successfully. Jeanne has lately received flattering notices in the press, among others the St. Louis Globe as follows: "The pianist, Miss Jennie Scott, played the Liszt arrangement of the 'Erl King' with exquisite expression and with a technique well nigh flawless. After four recalls she responded with Chopin's charming and dainty 'Berceuse' . Miss Scott received a beautiful bouquet at the close of her second number."
