Beeman recalls dawn of The Comanche Chief in 1873
G A Beeman, editor of The Comanche Chief, recounts pioneer days in Comanche County. He recalls near empty county luck, printing on a Washington hand press, making ink from lamp black, wrapping papers for issues, and early editors Nabers and Hill shaping the paper. He notes clashes with locals, the risk of retribution, and the rough but chivalrous spirit of frontier journalism. Bear McDaniel visits Dallas.
