Thanksgiving notes and dances at Prado Ranch
The Prado notes recount a Thanksgiving gathering at the ranch home of R. D. West with visitors from Los Angeles Santa Ana and Riverside. Harry Cooper leaves for Los Angeles to join his mother and move to San Francisco. Church and Sunday school attendance were strong, with many local visitors and a funeral in Colton. The piece ends urging support for local Corona and Prado merchants and promoting DeWitts Kidney and Bladder Pills sold by R F Billings.
