From reader George Howry comes this newspaper clipping and commentary...
The section crew was with the Northern Pacific railroad. Mike Howry was my grandfather. The newspaper had some ads from Cavalier, ND but I'm guessing it was the Grand Forks Herald.
Marguerite Nevens Jenson is the writer; she wrote "Thru the Years" for the Cavalier Chronicle. She was born in Neche, married Harold Jenson in Hallock, and died this past spring May 8, 2009 at the age of 100.

Thanks for the information, Val. Much appreciated...
ReplyDelete...and thanks for the encouraging comments. It's nice to know others enjoy our local history. Although I'd write this anyways, it's rewarding to know it's blessing others in some way...
