Kilborns Move to Terminal Island Home
Dear Herald reports Joe Kilborn and family have moved to Terminal Island near Long Beach after months of negotiating to buy a general store. The oceanfront residence offers a grand harbor view with torpedo boats practicing nearby and Catalina Island visible across the bay. Kilborn notes a small local population, richer prices locally, and invites friends from the East to visit. Mrs Kilborn suffers lumbago and neuralgia, while St. Louis and other ships visit nearby shores, and historical notes on Dominguez and Mexican War sites add local context.
