The
Early Days in Rivers Reminiscences of Town’s Founders
A reminiscence piece recalls Rivers eleven years ago with portraits of early residents and figures. Hoskins ran a rooming house in the Korman block before vanishing, William Fish Harris Newton appeared as a devout ex-booze dealer, and Harry Gaston built a quick news service after a lively stint as a paper hawker. Dad Poston is noted as a baseball booster, while W. R. Head the first mayor is praised for honesty and leadership. Reverend R. H. Fotheringham is highlighted for his temperate service and popular appeal.
