NEWS FROM 100 YEARS AGO

 

 

Friday, 11-28-1913, The Otoe Union:

Taylor Graham was building a "basement barn" on his lots

(where the old firehouse is now.) Myra (Willard) Everest

died and was buried in the Unadilla cemetery. Frank Yeigh

was filling his pond in anticipation of the "ice harvest".

A "weary traveler" stopped at Carper's harness shop and

said he was broke. After a while, Carper learned the man was

a steeple jack and had worked on some tall buildings in

Chicago. Carper paid to put him up in the hotel and got him

a job with the elevator putting the iron sheeting

on their building.
