Three years after Girgess and Hanson bought five buffalo and moved them to a farm six miles east of Poitsyula, the herd dwindled as animals disliked captivity and led to a costly spectacle for sightseers. The firm's affairs are now in receivership while a local banker faces jail at Sioux City over rent disputes. A separate note mentions a 30 day sentence or 160 fine for Riley after insanity examiners declared him sane. A nine room house is for rent near the post office.
