Constable Harve Albee’s 50 years of steady service
The Lena Star profiles Harve Albee who has held the constable office since 1843, never faced an opponent, and endured dangers from Indians and criminals. He weighs 206 pounds and twice survived bullet wounds and an ax attack, yet never let a criminal escape. The piece also rebukes state legislative behavior and recounts party votes on silver coinage, concluding with an ad for DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve.
