Ill f r ed letters and church notes from Estherville area
A jagged, fragmentary Bakersfield era article records a church meeting at Riverside Church in Inez and reports on ice storms breaking telephone lines. It includes a wedding notice for Archie Myhre and Julia Nelson at the Nelsons' home, with Rev. Hannon officiating, a dinner, and family details. Also noted is the death of Albert Lippert near Wallingford, age 24, a Holstein cattle enthusiast, with funeral arrangements and survivors listed. A local poem about a grocer's dream closes the piece.
