Bale of 62 year old cotton on display at Troup warehouse
A fragmentary report notes a 62 year old bale of jute and cotton on display at the Troup warehouse. The bale, once part of a long crop by C. C. Jones near Long Crane Creek, was nearly disintegrated yet still suitable for spinning after inspection. The bale's history includes shipment to St Louis for a World's Fair exhibit and later storage at the farmer C. Bam Jonesy’s Cochran area farm, Harris County.
