The columns have been reprinted in two books which are available at the Navigator Newspaper based in Albion/Grayville Ill. They are so interesting I can read them over and over. Remember Johnny Appman?? Articles about him amd his dog. Well worth the small price. Contact the Navigator Newspaper for copies. Incidentally there has been a new library built in Grayville whoch is called the Groff Library. much history available there. rita sturm pawly. pawlyr@yahoo.com Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
