Land values and town growth echo in a Napolean Homestead note
In Baltimore and Napoleon reminiscences, the piece contrasts land boom era growth with steady development after railroads. It notes Mottit’s likely prosperity from rich surrounding country, praises Editor McMaster, and laughs at G A Bryant’s old fashioned beauty photo from 1893. It ends with a cordial wish for the long life of the Napoleon editor’s pioneer father.
