Poer Returns to Pecos After Lamesa Visit
W. E. Poer, who began business at Lamesa, has come back to Pecos and likely will stay through winter. He found Lamesa a lively town but no family accommodations, so he returned home. His Lamesa venture would have paused this winter, as Poer is a man who wants to stay busy both winter and summer.
