Medora July 13 Herald Notes Local Travel and Developments
Saturday morning a special of five coaches carried President Howard Elliot and Superintendent B O Johnson through Medora. The Medora bridge to the stockyard spur was repaired, with a pile driver crew working two days. A second crew will fix the spur. heavy rains had nearly washed it away. A 25 car stock shipment is set for August 21, prompting the repairs. Judge Paxton issued a marriage license to C G Huffman and Isadora Holstion of Burkey. they wed with deputies as attendants and left by No 3. Plans for a Medora bank materialize with a brick 45 by 25 foot building on the old hotel site, aiming for a September opening. In a preliminary hearing, Joe Gerome, accused of stealing seven horses near Marmarth, waived examination and was sent to jail. district court action may be expedited with an extra court convened. Peter Stevens testified, but likely no testimony will be taken as Gerome pleads guilty. the case is viewed with little resistance.
