Grace files suit to force Rural Telephone to install phone
Harold P. Ziegler petitions in district court seeking a mandamus against the Rural Telephone Co. of Anita to restore telephone service in Grace’s home. The filing claims the delay stems from Grace apologizing for his wife removing a prior unit and the firm demanding purchase of a new phone and installation fees before service can resume. The incident dated May 19 1913 follows repeated requests for replacement and service. A baby girl named Martha Louise born near Extra on May 23 weighs 10 1/2 pounds.
