Local social notes and farm life in Sisseton
The Sisseton Standard lists community tidbits from May 1919 including visits, illnesses, and work. Tina Knutson’s relief visit, Mrs. Hagen’s trip to Wist, and Emil Schakowski’s knee injury lead a chain of family and farming updates. Neighborly farming contracts near Good Will note land leases by W. L. Bickford and Ben Faribault. Henry Grona u’s lumber delivery and Barney Lotter barn party highlight local life with mentions of relatives tied to Rev. Renville and French war era connections. A late obituary for Lovie Bubzuk and short travel mentions conclude with fishing season optimism.
