Historical site named for Mattox's grandpa
Jane and Mrs. Bill Mattox visit Adele Mattox and Mr. and Mrs. Barry Dunham in Oklahoma City during May. They planned to attend the opening of the William Harrison Clayton National Historic Site in Fort Smith Arkansas. Judge Clayton, Mrs. Mattox's grandfather, was a Union Army colonel and later a federal Indian Territory judge. Dunham's emergency operation led the group to stay in Oklahoma City where he is improving. Mrs. Mattox studied six weeks at Texas Tech summer school then visited Jane in Alpine. Jane attends Sul Ross, lifeguards daily at the university.
