PIONEER LANDMARK PASSES
LEBANON The first city map of Lebanon and its original
eeds given in 1855 by the founder, Jeremiah Ralston, were
found this week in the attic of the old Ralston home, above,
which is being razed. Although long abandoned as their home,
the property is still owned by one of the family, Hugh Kirk
Patrick, great grandson of the founder. Though countless rent
als the valuable papers remained intact and by chance were
recognized and saved from a trash fire through the alertness
of a city fireman.

Ralston Home at Lebanon
Lebanon The old Ralston
home, site of Lebanon's first per
manent dwelling, is being de
molished this week. Many have
visited the historic corner at Park
and Maple streets to have a last
look at the residence of the
founding family. Although -now
sadly worn and weather beaten,
It was once a gracious center of
community life where notables
from far and near were enter
tained. On Wednesday when boxes
of papers were being removed
from the attic an interesting doc
ument was retrieved by Fireman
George Wilcox just before it was
cast into a trash fire.
It was the original plat of
seven blocks given by Jeremiah
Ralston for founding the city of
T nhsnnn Thp si streets he
planned still bear the names he
gave them: Main, Second, Ash,
Sherman, Grant and Maple. The :
plot of ground from the Ralston
donation lano claim memoes me
present four city blocks west of
Main between Oak and Ash, and
the thren blocks west of Second
afreet between Sherman and Oak.
The document was signed by both
Jeremiah Ralston and his wife,
Jermima on June 1, 1855.
The frame structure now ne-:
Ing razed replaces Ralston's origi
nal home, an imposing two-story
structure built of small, perfect
ly matched logs with front pillars
of hand-hewen timbers. When
the Ralston wagon train arrived
here in September, 1847, the
only sign of white men's habita
tion was a low log cabin marking
the claim of William Hawk and
William Smith.
Ralston bought their holdings,
staked the corners of his dona
tion land claim and set about
provinding a suitable home lor

March Comes in
On Mild Tone
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Except for locally heavy snow
fall and some freezing rain in the
Eastern Great Lakes and upper
Ohio Valley regions, the coming
of March had little of the "like a
lion" aspect that is supposed to
guarantee mild weather late in the
month.
But that could change by night
fall. A cold wave was forecast
for the Dakotas. Nebraska, East
ern Montana, Minnesota and Iowa,
with temperatures ranging from
10 above in Southern Iowa to 15-20
below zero in North Dakota.
The much colder weather will
move into Kansas, Missouri, Wis
consin and Illinois Monday night
and Tuesday, the forecast said.
Temperatures around the coun
try early Monday were mostly
seasonable, although ranging down
to Grantsburg, Wis.'s 10 degrees.
It was near freezing in much of
the Midwest, well above Uut
along the Atlantic Seaboard, in
the 'teens and 20s in the Northern
Plains and Rocky Mountains.
Virginia and the Carolinas also
had snow at the higher elevations
but showers elsewhere. Snow on
the eastern slopes of the Rockies
and the Northern Plains ranged
up to Moufcraft, Wyo's three
inches.
