Foster Items Reflect Local Social Ties and Weather
Foster notes show visits by G B Beckett family and Ruth Bechet, Clyde Phillipe of Lafayette in Benson Hill, and J W Phillips’s business trip to Danville. Lena Burghart returns sick, Inez and Ida Gouty host a Sunday School social, Wes Royce and Mamie Cook wed near Clinton, and talk of a new farmer cooperative elevator. A blizzard disrupts travel as trains run late and business slows. A local ad promotes granite or marble stonework from SASTEL.
