The Schools In The Schools and a Galbraith Marker Legend
In 1917 the Schools in The Schools on Chester and Main housed the post office with John Q. Baker as editor and postmaster, Richard Dowling his assistant. Dowling bought a rejected stone becoming the Galbraith marker. Longfellow wrote a poem about Victor Galbraith Crout wrote the story. McKinley Junior High pupils have read and studied these works about Galbraith. A Monterey Mexico post board warns Beware stranger Fate's innocent victim lies buried here. Legend says a true bugle echoes on calm nights near the site.
