Fort Davis Home Nears Completion in Frazer Canyon
Fort Davis correspondent reports Jim Kapy is building a stone seven room ranch home for his bride in Frazer Canyon, four to five miles up Frazer off Lampinanyon, about sixteen miles from Fort Davis. Jim McElroy directs the work on the old D. M. Ward ranch, now Sim Bapy’s. The Kapy family, married late December, will move into the new house soon, while nearby properties include the old Ward and Powell ranches. Concurrent notes mention others visiting, a centenarian death, and local road officials praised for orderly highway offices.
