The Rev. H. POST moves to Idaho. The Rev. Harry T. POST, Episcopal clergyman of Spokane for several years, is being transferred to Kellogg, ID, to take charge of the Kellogg-Wallace field. The Rev. Mr. Post was formerly in charge of St. David's and Epiphany missions in Spokane. For more than a year he has had charge of St. Paul's misson at Cheney, and has been with the FERA service. His family will move to Kellogg. 2. Big front page photograph of Frank HAWKS, famous speed flyer who came to Spokane yesterday afternoon in the interest of the Will ROGERS memorial fund and, because he arrived and hour and a half ahead of scheduled time, there was no reception committee to greet him. He didn't mind at all, for he was "half frozen" from flying through "soupy," cold weathre from Missoula, MT, so he headed for the restaurant in the Administration building at FELTS field for a cup of hot coffe. Between sips from the steaming cup he lit up his corn cob pipe. "Brrh," he shivered, " as he released the colar of his heavy flying clothes and took off his gloves, "That was a cold trip across Montana. I didn't remain in the air more than one and one-half hours at a time if it was possible, it was too darn cold...too cool for comfort in a fast open ship." It was his first visit to Spokane since 1928. Although Spokane was experiencing record cold temperature, he seemed like a summer resort in compa! rison to MT, said Captain Frank HAWKS, noted flyer and holder of the transcontinental nonstop record. He had left North Beach airport, NYC, October 18, for 40 days of flying which will take him over every state in the union, visiting 125 cities and traveling 25,000 miles. He rode into FELTS field at high speed and didn't attempt to throttle down much when he landed, but side-slipped into a beautiful but most difficult maneuver for a perfect three-point landing. A low morning temperature of 14 below was recorded at the home of J. B. FELTS in Opportunity. 3. Photo -- Rewarded for saving a pigeon: Thomas A.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Frost Classification: Biography Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/3BC.2ACE/1698 Message Board Post: Purchased vintage picture postcard in Spokane at an antique fair recently showing an older gentleman with a head of beautiful white hair, white shirt, tie, vest, and pants, standing in front of his office. On the front of the building below the window it reads: "Reliable Information Regarding the Great Calgary Oil Fields," Stocks in All Leading Companies Bought, Sold." The postcard was never mailed and does not give a signature or name, but someone has written, "My father, J. W. Frost, taken about 1910 at his office in Spokane. Will you kindly return this picture." In the adjoining open doorway of the same building is an electric company with a large sign. Mr. Frost's address appears to read S106A and the electric company is 106. An old Spokane city directory at the Spokane Public Library should be able to pin down this gentleman's identity and business.

The Chronicle did not start in 1800, there was no one here to read it before Lewis and Clark even came to the Northwest. I think the earliest the Library has for the Chronicle is about 1880 or 1881.

I don't know that the phone book will have all the Catholic Cemeteries listed, (don't know of a town that does list them all), I do have a web address & phone number for the Catholic Dioceses of Spokane, they should know ALL the Catholic Cemeteries around Spokane. You may want to ask them about all the Catholic Cemeteries in Spokane County instead of just the city, as the County isn't small. www.dioceseofspokane.org Communications Office ph# (509) - 358 - 7340 Bishops's Office ph# (509) - 358 - 7305 Chancery Office ph# (509) 358 - 7300 As far as finding out death information, you'll need to know what newspapers were in operation in 1937, & in what town of Spokane County William died in.
