Has anyone ever read the above named book? I have one in my possession and will copy the preface for you written by the author: In the preparation of Down One Hundred Years, I have had the unfaltering support of W.A. Reed, William Zunkel, Burbank Halstead, John Lundquist, Grover Hamilton, Ernie Michael, Olin Rippey, Dr E.J. Hines, Arvid Miller, Dr C.D. Scott, and Pete Iltis. I am greatly indebted to these men for their splendid cooperation. L. Dale Ahern copyright 1938, Winterset, Iowa. There are many interesting stories in this book. When I have time, I might include some of the stories if anyone is interested. I may be mistaken but believe Mr Ahern was a teacher in the Leon Schools in the 30's. Jack you might know about him.
