Story of Early Grove
Farm and Business
Comes From Cell
Row River Country in Pi ¿lu res
X
Years ago there lived in Cottage
Grove a young man of some talent,
an observing eye and a retentive
memory. He was an eye witness
of some of the stirring events in |
the early history of the city. To- .
day he is in prison.
For what 1
crime we know not. He has sub- |
mil ted his story to The Sentinel
under tho pen name of Jay Bee ,
and it will be commenced in an j
early ¡«¿mo as uu addition to the ■
“ Pioneer
Footprints”
material j
which The Sentinel publishes.
Many of the characters in the |
story will be recognized. Others
probably will not, except possibly ■
by old timers. Some are yet living 1
and are known to many. The story
probably would not be of great ;
interest to others, but it should be |
to readers of The Sentinel. The |
first installment probably will ap­
pear next Monday. Five or more j
issues will bo required to complete
tho story.
