K~~gar et .S:a:u.11crs Bowm~n was born in Dur ango, Colorado , December 8, 1905, the t hir d · child of Thomas and Etta Bowman. The Bm•nna.ns lived at 760 3rd · Ave nue. Uarga.re t has wonderful memor i es of this h ous-e, since · she lived there until she was married. Just do1m the street across fro~ Smiley Jr. High was the school.· All twelve grades were in· the one building until the high school was built.· ·1,farga:ret' s older brother, Bi11 was out _of school and Lona, her only sister was. in 12th grade when Margr;.ret · started first grade. 11 We didn't keep our olr.r.l horses and buggy. Most. everythi.pg we needed was close and the area had good public transportation, too. The to~m had a st1·eetcar ·which all the children loved to ride. We co11ld go all the way up to .Animas Cityj almost as far as the present location of the Silver Spur Restaurant, for picnics at Animas Park. This was up the hiJ.J.. among the trees and rocks with a good view across the valley. Sometimes, on the 4th of July and on other occasions we went to Brookside Park lo.cated o;n Main where the Chamber of Commerce O.ffice is now. l'here were s,lings and slides and the creek where the children could play~ If anyone wanted t-o go to Silvc~ton or Telluride or Ignacio, they could ride the train ub ich was without question the fastest and most comfortab.le way to travel . . Whenever Dad- 11eedeq. private transportation, he would hire a "ha.ck 11 from orie of th~J livery stables. This included a driver and made a good impression oh visito:rs arriving on the train. . " · · · · ~ _ Our f amily_,.-ras .greatly irm.olved-in church. · On· Sund~y mornings ·we · attended Sunday SchooJ_ an<i Church. On 2-..:nda.y evening we went to Christian Endeaver. Then on Wednesday e~ening was Prayer meeting. On Sundays there· w-as no playing, no sl1ows or other entertainment. We read our Sunday Sch0ol Lesson 01.· did something quiet. Occassiona.lly, . Pad took us to the / Vienna Restaurant after church and once in a vhile he would take me for a , ~ walk. Otherwise, Sundays were quiet arid rather unexciting." · .. Both of Margaret I s · parents were i r;:-c-:-;j g:ran ts j_nto this part. of the couutry. Thomas was horn in Wisconsin, His parents were named Dibley. When both of them died, he was adopted by the Bm11.nan :family. Boys cannot stay a·way from exciting events. This was true of Thomas when the Ci7il War started .. He just b!J.d to go, and· ho ha_d to practice a l ittle deception to join the Union Ar:rry at the age of 16. Of course, Thomas had been taught never to 1:te. .B:~i'ore go:tng to the induction center he wrote the number 17 on a :p:tece of paper and placed the paper in his shoe so that he could s-.1ear in. good c ons.cience that he was over 17. .After re turning from the •CiviJ. Was, Thomas e~tered Madison University where he stayed until he acquired. a Pb..n degree in science. In the 187O 1 s and 188O's opportunities were wide open in every direction of this developing country~ Thomas chose to co~e to Colorado to work as a metalurgist. First te came to Silverton prospectj_ng on his o"tim and working for the mines. Later, he moved dmm to Animas City at."1.d went to work for the smelter. In 1887 Thomas noticed a new girl in tm·m. Etta Louisa Summe1·s ctune to Durango from Ohio to escape the damp climate of the east. She stayed with her sister, the ·wife of· the Rev. James Coffman, who established thG first Heth~dist Church in Durango. Etta t aught school in Durango for one yea.r. After Thonas and Etta were merried, Tom continued working at the smelter for a number of years. Before Margaret was boxn they decided to open a book and stationery store on main street. TlD T.E. Bowman Boo!-r and Statione1·y Store w2.s located right next to Pennys. The busin8ss was operated until Th omas di Bd in 1923. Durango is full of new busin~sses "id th n ew naJI1.e s, bu t a n imber of' the old ones are still there. ( Among t hem a re the Strater, Graden s, Parson's Drug, Richey's and TaylorRaymond Jewellers . The New Yor k Bakery 'ims Purrung' s Bakei-y a.."1.d the General \ - J �Pal.mer was the Savoy· Hotel. Margaret had krnnm Lawrence Wisel'1..an since 8th grade •.They were casna.l friends at school and in the yeaI's f'ollowing she saw La1•ll"ence now and then ,--- --- on the street. · After f~nishing school Margaret attended business college \..".·· in Greeley. Once while she was home· Sam Gilcrest called to ask her to · go on a blind date. To her su.rprize the blind date uas Lawrence Wiseman. From then on there ·was no o~e else. Margaret was- offered .a job at Pueblo, but Lm~Tence changed her mind. They were m!lrrled in 1927. Lal'r.i."ence ·was working at Durango F...ardware for several years until it went backrupt during the depression. After that he worked at wha.tever he •· could find. Suddenly, a totally unexpected opportunity .a ppeared. Hr. Biggs who 01med i3iggs H4rdware in Ignacio asked Lawrence to_ run the bus:tness for him. Lawrence didn't ki.'1ow ho11 to figure a ·ooard foot, but was delighted for the opportunity. He rented a room in Ignacio and rode the train back and forth from Durango on week-ends. In 1932 Margaret and he1~ mother moved to Ignacio so Lawrence could stop the commuting. At first they rented the house where Hotts now live and later moved across the street. During the depression years Lawrence sold hay and grain which he had taken in as payments on bills • .Af'ter living all her lj_fe in a larger tm-m Margaret was uncertain how· she would like living · in Ignacio. However, after a few weeks here, Margaret decided she was very ha.ppy wi. th her new home. Today she says she would.."l 't ·want to live any other :place. In 1950 Lai',Tence bought out Mr. Biggs and changed the name of the store. 11 Li.fe i.n -Ig~1aeio ·was -d:iffer en-t ,- of c ourse, -i n- t he e-arly:..--yeaFs-.· -- W€ -ha d to go to bed at 10:00 P . H. because t he l ights went off. I remeinber once we had a ·g roup of friends f rom Durango for a supp er :party, We told. t hem they . would have to leave before 10:00 because the l ights go out. They laughed like they didn't believe it and decided to stay. Sure enough when 10:00 r:_:.:. _o I c~ock came everything went black and our friends had a time of it finding ~ thci~ coc:.ts and ha ts • 11 11La-wrence and I liked to travel. In fact that was . our favorite passtim.e .. We to;)k t rips all over this country-and a few overseas to Hawaii and Jamaica 11 and Bermuda. Once we ,;-.rent to New York City to see the musicals. My Fair r...ady11vas going strong when ve were t here. Our favorite kind of trip was simply to go to the airport and buy the first tuo tickets available wherever it was. Going like this we never lmew ,-1here we would find ourselves, but we found some of the most interesting places. Arriving without reservations was uncer·tain, b"J.t we always had good luck. 11 Lawrence enjoyed his work and especially enjoyed the people in Ignacio. After he sold the store to Tom, Lawrence continued to work for him·part of tb.-e time. However, it also gave the Wisema11 1 s more free time to travel or follow•other passtimes. Lawrence died sudd~nly in February of 1976. The people of this area miss him very much f or his friendli ness and good s pirit. And, of course, Margaret misses h im , but she is for tun?te because all her memories of Lawrence are good ones. We wish Margaret and her family many years of happiness and good health.

H~- ·pa?tents- we-re- Gustave ttlvin Y..iiler and Wilhimi"na Kr.ate 1-!iiller, both of whom _,i-mmigrate-d- fror:i- Germany when they were teen-agers. Gustave-• s family was fairly wealthy. Therefore when he got to Uew York, he attended school to learn English. Wilhimina couldn 1 t afford school wheri she arrived at Baltimore. · 1 11 ' Howe·v er Martha recalls, 11 My mother spoke good English with no accent, while my Dad for all his schooling always had a heavy German broque. 11 11 Both my parents were naturalized citizens with-in a year. They met at the Am.ana Colo_n y near Des Hoines, Iowa where they got jobs. Two years later they got married. Dad worked in a Brewery, then took up far □ing first in I6wa then in northern Wisconsin where I was born, the youngest of 10. These are my brothers and sisters in order. The oldest was l·li.nnie, then Emma, Ann, Marie (who died at age 2), Hargaret, Augusta, Elvina, Ed, Paul, and Martha.·~• · 11 Dad far□ ed in the sUTI1Iner and was a logger in winter. I remember he saved the tamarack bark to sell to the tannery. rfo one ever irrigates anything in \·l i sc ons in. Most of the t iI!l.e the re ' s too much water, Our river bottom land was like a sponge rauch of the yea~, It was a trick to raise hay theTe. Only at certain times could we work and only witp oxen. They never bog down. After the hay was cut we raked it1by hand -with wooden rakes with pegs for teeth. I can still remember my Dad carving new pegs for the rakes, 11 11 1 never saw anybody ride a horse till we moved- to Colorado. Ey brother even hitched an ox to our buggy to deliver Cream to tm,m. 11 11 Wisconsin is wonderful for wild fruit and nuts, blueberries, cranberrie'"', raspberries, etc. , and hickory, hazelnuts, butternuts, chestnuts. "i;fe gathered two sacks full of them and put them in the attic of the wood shed to dry e..nd cure. Every fall _our neighbors cut and shipped box car loads of greenery to the cities for Christmas wreaths. My mother taught Ee to card and spin wool thread when_ I was 10. I wish I had a spinning -wheel now. It was fun. 11 · 11 I might still be in Wisconsin if our Doctor hadn't told Dad1 mother's health would be better at a highe,r altitude. _Dad headed west, intending to go as far as Oregon where E:re-.a lived. But in Denver: Dad_met: Mr •.-Rbffmans ·who was looking for someone to manage the lli:H Ranch south of Oxford. Dad agreed to take the job for 2 months to see if he liked · it. .ltfter a :month he sent for us. All that were left a-t hoI!l.e were -Mother, IDY 2 brothers ·and me. I didn't like it at first. I was accustomed to a nice home with a lawn. I I!li.ssed r:iy friends. I attended the old white s..c_hool at Oxford. (It's been moved to Amy l•icCaw' s place) I met Horace and Ralph Buchanan, the Boyce . girls, J"im and J"ack Turner, J"ohn Olbert, the- Hayden kids and many others. Hy first teacher was Nyrtle HcChesney from Allison. Later she married Anthony Morris. Soon we n.oved riear the Pine River Switch to prove out some homestead land and rlayed there until I was married at 15. 11 Martha and Gustave Semler, who□ she married in 1919, farmed near Oxford for a year then moved to Sable Canyon on Spring Creek. ThereHartha plowed with 3 _horses, helped run the binder a.nd .shock ands.tac~ 45 acres of grain. Later they worked another place on Spring ·creek which had regular irrigation. 11 We went to Ignacio about every 2. weeks for business or supplies. Frora Ignacio it took 3~-4 hours to ride to Durango if you had a horse with a good running walk. 11 "I remember our nail carrier·, l-lel vin Walker, drove a . wagon with a cover over 1 t and a stove inside. He arrived at our box at 4: 00 P. 1I • and then 1 �~ m/ _ · 'hri.d tCI' go all the way back to Ignacio. Art~ur Capell used a car when he took over that route." rfartha had five children: Paul lives west of Ignacio; Herbert died at r -')~itzsinmons Army Hospital at the age of 22; Betty lives at Olathe; Bill lives north of Ignacio; and lfichael lives at Sheridan, Wyomng. One summer when Paul was a baby, Gustave took a heard of Arthur Jones' sheep to pasture up near the needle .i(ountains. In mid-summer 1-fartha took little Paul on horseback to the Ca.op . It snowed, rained and hailed every day. In late summer she helped nove the herd back to Spring Creek. nI could pack a burro and n:ove ca.op like a man, then." The Ser:ilers lived in Durango, Dulce and Ft. Lewis before moving to.the Chromister Place one rd.le north of Otiord. This was depression time and life was very hard. For 9 nonths 2-: artha ~ilked 30 cows morning and evening. 11 1-~y ha..'"ld.s swelled to twice their size . It was too much work, but in a depression, you do what you have to do. I, also, broke horses to ride or to plow;, for ~25 per head. We lost the far.r:;i north of Oxford. From then on I r ai sed and supported my c.hildren alone. We noved to Ignacio. Paul was only 13, but we triedJto far□ tne James :place (-where Candelaria subdivision is l ocated). :foxt. 1re lived on the Johannson Place at Tiff any and ran the crea.I!l station for Shaeffers. In the spring I dropped corn (planted) all day 1-ong for ::.51 . 50. I anq. the older children 1,rorked at ·w hatever we could to survive. When Paul went to the war, he sent us an a.llottr:1ent which made life easier. 11 Today Hartha has 15 grandchildren and J+ great-gra..11.dchildren to enjoy. She has a nouse full of =enentoes and nenories of her Parents and of a life· of :pioneering in . the north woods and the western nountains. La.rtha still bas spunk a.n.d. energy and a weal th of s1:ills ·w;,,u.ch she will share with others if they want to learn. and she tells greatstories, many of which ·we don't have roon to tell here. by Shelby Sm.th ~-Ielco:--e to our J~11uary Social 1·,11.en January 27, 1978 1Tnere: Senior Center Time : 12:00 Noon Allison - £rboles - Please bring desserts Tm·m of Ignacio ?lease bring vegetab~es & Salads Rural area 1-Iear C::: N' •· H. of Ignacio- Please bring TI:.ain dishes ..., • ,O{j ' ' ~ ..____..-i if ,,-._,.....>-::,,,;;;__ ' ~ , ~ b.....r::J;',1 -~~~-=;~ ~~-~-4 1~11~ .

It was October 17, 1886. Little Harry was a strong, healthy boy. At that time most of the Utes could still hunt with bows and arrows and as Harry grew up he was taught t o make his own weapons and to hunt the old way. In those days there were only a very few Mexicans and Anglos in the area. A few agency pftople and one or two store owners and their families were here . Otherwise tribal members had the land to· themselves . As a child and a young man Harry led a life most American children would envy today. He fished and hunted He learned the crafts and traditions of his people, participating in the dances and feasts . He helped his father and grandfather and played boyhood games all the while untroubled by the shadow of school . All good things seem to have a way of ending . In 1899 when Har ry was 13 his grandfather put an end to the free and ea~y l ife . Onehalf mile north of the agency was a mission school taught by the blacksmith ' s daughter. Harry went .. The best thing he remembers about school that year was the two week Christmas vacation . He had no idea what plans his grandfather had for him for the following.school year . "One day a man I ' d never seen before showed up at our place . My grandfather told me I was going with him to the Ft. Lewis School to learn English. I didn ' t know anything about it until they told me to get into the wagon . There wasn't any chance to run away or anything . " Harry went to school two years at Ft . Lewis . He learned English, farming techniques and a few other subjects . "That was enough school for me," Harry states. At the age of 18 Harry decided it was time to earn some money of ~is own . His f irst job was with the agency. It was hard work, often with a pick and shovel, but a person couldn't be choosey. Jobs weren ' t too plentiful . To the best of his memory, Harry earned $1.25 per day. That doesn't sould like much, but $ . 25 would buy a lot of groceries in 1905. By t~en Harry was living on Spring Creek and rode a horse to work every day . i it was a fairly long ride and tiresome, especially when there was farm work to do at home, too. When asked how he met his wife, Harry smiled and said, "It was different then. If you wanted to marry a girl, you would go ask her father . He might say ' no ' or he might say 'yes'. If he said 'yes'~ he would call his daughter out and you would take her home with you and you were married . 11 S.ometimes the girl's mother or grandmo ther would object to the match . When that happened, the grandmother might put the couple to the smoke test. This consisted of putting the couple in a teepee, building a s moky fire inside the teepee and sealing up the tent flaps . As the teepee fil l ed with smoke, eyes smartee and breathing became difficult . If the boy broke out for fresh air before the time allotted by the grandmother, shP. ran him off and he couldn't come back. If he . endured the smoke until the grandmother was satisfied, she would open the teepee and the couple was free to marry . Harry married Mary Tobias . Unfortunately, Mary died about 3 years later and there were no children. Afterward Harry moved to Taos and mar ried a tribal member there . A daughter was soon born . Harry likes the Taos people very much and still goes occasionally to visit his daughte and her children . After about three years in Taos, he moved back to the �., Pine River Valley. ·Personal travel was very slow when Harry was young. A trip to the J Uinta Reservation in Utah required 15 days with a horse and buggy. For this reason, when trips were made, people stayed a while·. Time for another one probably wouldn 1 t come for some while. Harry's brother Bob was appointed Tribal judge and held that post for several years. Whenever Bob was needed to hear a case, the tribal police would have to ride a horse out to Spring Creek to bring him in. After a while this became so inconvenient that the tribe suggested that Bob and Harry take an assignment of land nearer the town. The new assigned land is about 2 miles east of town and Harry has lived there ey:e:r si[!ce • .About 13 years ago Bob and Harry wer e given an unusual opportunity. They were offered the chance to adopt a baby boy. Most -men in their 60 1 s would not be interested in giving their lives to the care of a child. Many would not feel competent, but Bob and Harry did. They raised little Ross from an infant, loved him and gaye him good care. The County Welfare Department questioned the sui tability of this arrangement several times, but could find no fault with the care Eob and Harry were giving the baby. Bob died in 1972. Harry and Ross still live on the farm. When Harry is not gardening, he is involved in craft work for which he and all his people should be proud. Harry makes bows, arrows, spears, dru~s, and feathered ornaments for use on ceremonial occassions. His work is very beautiful and valuable. Not many people·skilled in these crafts '\ remain. Harry is looking forward to his 89th birthday this fall. That's getting pretty old, but Harry doesn't act it. He stilL works his garuen and gets around very well. We wish him many more peaceful, happy and productive years. by Shelby Smith REMEMBERED When I shall quit this mortal shore And mosey round on earth no more, Don1 t weep, don 1 t sigh, don't sob I may have found a better job.

Author unkno·wn Mrs. 'Wilda CrtgJ.er a.nd her daughter Mrs. Thelma Jones from Indio, 13.lifornia are spending the summer in Ignacio. They are living in Hrs. J·u.lia Engler's home. Nrs. Crigler's son Connard Burks and Mrs. Burks came with them from Baldwin Park, California and then went on to visit her relatives in Kansas and Oklahoma. The Criglers were longtime Ignacio residents coming here from Craig in 1921. Both Thelma and Connard graduated from Ignacio High. Mr. Crigler - P.J. - was the Rio Grande Western Station agent in Ignacio for 32 years. In those days there were two passenger trains a day and any number of freight trains a month. While living in Ignacio the Criglers built six new homes and remodeled two others and were among the first residents to put bathrooms in their homes. Later they built two new houses by Columbus bridge, above Bayfield. During the years in Ignacio the family took an active part in the community. Hr. Crigler died in November 1972. With the exception of four summers they have spent every summer in the Ignacio-Bayfield area.

Try simple exercise and herbal teas to relax. 5) Sure reeipes for s]eep Many people stay awake only ·when they have something profoundly worrying them, have eaten too late or have overeaten. Cold feet. poor breathing habits and bad circulation also cause sleeplessness. But most insomniacs are clever, creative people who simply cannot - or will not - let their minds stop working. There are ways to retrain the too-active mind: Before going to bed, do a little exercise - some stretching at least; get into a full warm tub, or take a cold foot bath or sitz" bath; pop into bed; drink an herb tea. Breathe deeply three or four times, holding the last breath as long as you can; repeat several times. Lying on your back. slowiy and precisely concentrate on your feet. Say to yourself, ''lily feet are heavy." Think of each part of your ·body in the same way: legs, stomach, chest, arms, neck. lips, nose, eyes, head. If you have thoroughly concentrated, you can fall asleep immediately. If you still are slightly awake, lift your right foot, tense it, relax it suddenly; repeat with the left. Lift your right hand, clench it, drop it suddenly; repeat with the left. Tighten your face in a grimace, then relax. If you are still resisting, mentally write the number 3 - as slowly as you can three times; you should be fast asleep seconds later. Since relaxed sleep is one of the keys to good health, all great herbalist-healers are preoccupied with sleeping aids. A cold one- to three-minute foot bath with water up to the calves, according to 19th-century· herbalist Father Kneipp, will "cure fatigue and produce sound and wholesome sleep." He also claims a cold three- to five-minute semibath - either kneeling in water so the thighs are covered, or sitting in water up to the stomach "regulates circulation, expels unhealthy gases, and makes the body impervious to catching colds." Calcium and vitamin D are nature's most readily available nightcaps. Warm a glass of whole or skim milk, add a taqlespoon of honey: The calcium tranquilizes; the honey helps the body retain fluids, thus keeping the kidneys from alerting you during the night. Many herbs are used as nightcap teas. Add 1 teaspoon to a cup of boiling water. steep 15 minutes, strain. Add honey if you like - particularly if getting up frequently is a problem. The most effective herb sleepproducer in my view is valerian; it was prescribed to relieve strain brought on by air raids in World War II. Peppermint tea is delicate and aromatic. Chamomile tea is a traditional tranquili,zer. Aromatic woodruff can greatly improve, even prolong, one's sleep. To make tea, use hot - not boiling - water. Sage tea plus honey brings on a sense of calm. We had a "sleep jar" when I was a child that contained a teaspoon of sage and rosemary to every 2 tablespoons of peppermint; use 1 teaspoon of the combined herbs for a cup of tea. Early American settlers used both red bergamot and pennyroyal teas for relaxed sleep. Lemon balm tea removes spasms and '' ~ - ~~ ~~ tensions that prevent sleep. Cowslips have been used for centuries in England for nightly tea. American herbalist Jethro Kloss advises a warm bath and hot tea for immediate sleep. He suggests lady's slipper, valerian, catnip, skullcap or hops steeped in a cup of boiling water for 20 minutes. Kloss says these herbs· induce sleep and t,one up the stomach and nerves. Hot lemonade or grapefruit juice, with or without honey, is an excellent substitute. The Germans use ground anise with honey in warm milk as their bedtime drink. The Dutch use tablet of aniseed in a glass of l-. milk. Grated nutmeg, lemon and boiling water can be used . . Dr. Deforest Jarvis, author of "Folk Medicine," prefers apple, grape and cranberry juices to citrus juices. He also suggests a daily drink of 2 teaspoons cider vinegar in a glass of water before breakfast. This is marvelous for getting the body started and is an effective cure for constipation - another problem that can affect sleep. Did your grandmother have a sleep pillow - a tiny herb cushion covered with gay fabric? These are good for invalids and anyone in need of extra help in sleeping. Crush the dried leaves of lavender, rosebuds, or any pleasantsmelling herbs; add a fixitive; enclose in two men's handkerchiefs. (The pillow should be quite flat.) :Make a washable "pillowcase" of colorful fabric. Pin to the bed-pillow ticking. �POW~WOW - - 0 The Fourcorners Inter-Tribal POW-WOW will be held at Mancos on Saturday, July 27, 1974. ,About a thousand dollars in prizes will be offered to participants, Dancing: will be held from 2 P.M. to 5 P.M.

(GORMAlf) JONES Charlotte Gorman was born in Chicago, the daughter of William and Frances Gorman, both of whom were Canadian i mmigrants born near Toronto, Ontario. ·when William and Francis met in Chicago in 1900, she was working as a bookkeeper·ror t he Balti~ore and Ohio Railroad . William worked for the Chicago Street Railr oad Co . which operated horse-drawn street cars all over the Chicago Metro ar ea . Women were supposedl y unliberated in 1900, but Frances played golf often and well. Both she and William were interested in the theater. Years later Charlotte says s he recalls hearing them talking about the Barrymores and th~ Drews and other f amous acting families of that period. Host recreation in Chicago during the summer centered around Lake Michigan . "In the summer my mother and her brothers and sisters usually rented a houseboat on the lake. The boat was moored to a pier off the shore several miles from. town. The only access to town was a pac~et boat which came along once a day . If we wanted to go to town for shopping or to send mail , we raised a flag on the boat as a signal for the pack3t boat to stop . These vacations were a cool relaxing time of swimming , fishing, sunbathing and r est. 11 Charlotte's memories of Chicago , such as those above, have been reinforced by her par ents, since she was only about four years old when t he Germans moved to the Ozar ks.. Before William retired he began dabbling in the buying and selling of real estate. He moved the family on to one of his plots near Ironton and Burbank, Miss ouri, about 90 miles south of St. Louis. During t he year and a half t he Gormans were there, William was the post master in Ironton. Then William heard of the Loma Land Development Co., which was opening farming land in the Colorado River Valley west of Grand Junction and Fruita. William and many other easterners invested in far mland there. A Presbyterian Mission was opened at Loma and is still operating, but the farm projects did not do so well. Neither the Germans nor the other easterners had heard of alkali land. Most of the farms at Loma proved largely unsuitable for irrigated farming. Therefore the Gormans moved to Orchard Heights near Fruita. Then began some of the most enj oyable years of Charlotte's life. "Orchard Heights was a beautiful place. We could look right up into the Colorado National Monument from our yard. The orchards, mostly apples, occupied hundreds of acres. Our place was rented from a New Yor k State man who had planted every kind of apple we knew about and many varieties we never knew the names of . 11 Charlotte and her br other, Douglas traveled to school at Fruita 3 miles away in a horse - drawn school bus. The bus consisted of a wagon with seats along the sides and benches for ,the little ones down the middl e . It was roofed and had black oil -cloth curtains which could be closed during bad weather. . "All the young ones in our area played "hide-and-go-seek ' and went swimming during the warm months . During winter we had community parties or went ice s kating on t he stock ponds . 11 Fall was a time of work, a time of apple picking and potato digging and of constructing apple boxes . The grower s built their own appl e boxes from pre-cut sticks .a nd boards . Charlotte remembers doing her share of nailing. Then the apples were pa cked , hauled to the Railroad Depot and shipped. Farm children have opportunities for varieties of pets largely unavailable to city kids. Charlotte remembers one pet lamb which became a nuisance 1n the neighborhood. ) �:2_ "He would follow our buggy wherever we went. Once he followed us all the way to Loma where he made himself a nuisance in the flower beds. Almost the whole town turned out to make sure he followed us when we left." When Charlotte was about.10 years old, her parents moved to another place near Fruita where they attended a country school for gr~des 4-8. William grew potatoes and tomatoes as well as apples there. "While we were there a counle of burros ca!!l.e to live with us. They just showed up. Douglas would try to ride one of them to school, but he usually didn't make it. About halfway there the burro. would turn around and head for home and Doug would have to walk all the way to school ·anyway. 11 Charlotte loved to read and did a lot of WTiting, too. At the age of 9 she announced that she intended to be a newspaper reporter. 11 I don 1 t know why I said that, but it nmst have been a premonition of things to come. 11 In high school Charlotte especially enjoyed English, dramatics and journalism. She was the editor of the first Fruita High School newspaper. In college, Charlotte majored in journalism and would have accepted a job on the Grand Junction newspaper, but the wages were · too low. Instead she taught .school in Fruita for l+ years. i ; r first came to the San Juan Basin to visit a college friend who lived in Cortez. I stayed. in Durango a while at the SterJ_ing Hotel which was operated by Lawrence Wiseman's mother. Mrs. Wiseman and I became good friends and she took me ~Tith her on a visit to Ignacio to see Lawrence and Hargaret. It was on this visit that I met my future husband. Fay Jones worked at the sugar beet mill in Brighton during the fall and early winter. During spring and sumruer he came back to Ignacio to help his. aunt and uncle run the Comme!'cial Hotel which was located on Goddard Ave. where the recent Bill Liese auto repair shop is located. 11 The hotel has burned down: 'since then. but in its day Charlotte says it was a very nice place and.an interesting place to stay. "All kind of travelBrs, including Washington officials hereon Tribal business were there. The parlor was a place of lively conversation and fun in the evenings. The restaurant served delicious food. A complete Sunday dinner cost $.40." Inflation operated then, too. Charlotte says Louis Morris recalls what a blow i t was when the Sunday di nners increased f ram $. l+o to $ . 50 per =i_eal. 11 I s tayed there in tb.e hotel several days. They were so snort handed that I was offe:i:'eo. a job and took it. It ·was there I got a cquainted with Fay. We got married ~n November ,of 1933 . Fay worked i n t h e mill i n Brighton t ill Christmas time. Then we ca~e back to Ignacio. 11 _ Since steady jobs were almost ~mpossible to find during those depression years, when Fay a..~d Charlotte got a chance to buy the Ignacio Chieftan, they took it. At that time the Chieftan was located in otehalf of the building now occupied by Rudy's Lounge. The other half of the building was Mr. Stauffer 1 s Barber Shop ( Jessie Hott's father ) . Charlotte was the editor and renorter and Fay was the publi sher a~d advertising manager ; . It wasn't- easy to keep a newspaper alive during the 30 1 s. Many subscriptj_ons were paid in pr oduce rather than with cash. One man paid his with strawberries for years. The Joneses ha,,e three children: Malcom lives in La Porte, Texas, Jacqueline Rea lives in Denver and Kathleen Rosenberg lives in Oakland, New Jersey. �4- -3 Fay died in 1968. Since ~hen Charlotte has spent quite a bit of time traveling. She has been to Canada twice· to visit relatives and on a bus tour of Mexico. No one is surprized that Charlotte can't quit writing. She has written a number of short stories and is currently working on a history of the Presbyterian Church in this area. Every month Mrs. Jones voluntarily supplies most of the news for tfu.is newsletter. A healthy interest in life is rewarding and invigorating. Charlotte certainly has this. 11 When I first ca,ne to Ignacio~ I thought it was a· fascinatine place with its variety of cultures and traditions and its beautiful surroundings. I still do. 11 Shelby Smith JlJLY SOCIAL Welcome to our July 25 social~ DATE: WHERE: WHE!f: HOW: .July 25, 1975 Ute Park 12.00 noon Pot luck We hope to make this a good old summertime social in the park.

You tested the oven temperature by opening the door and thrusting your hand inside? You tossed an apple peeling on the hot coal range to correct a .musty or unpleasant odor in the .house? You filled the kerosene lamps, trimmed the wicks, and washed the glass chimneys every morning? 1 Petticoats had drawstrings? You ironed everything-starched :corset covers, open drawers and I petticoats edged with Hamburg ! lace ruffles with another plain "dust ruffle" underneath? ' It took at least an hour in full :sunlight on a warm day to dry your long hair? Mother heated her curling tongs by putting them into the top of the glass chimney of the lighted i•erosene lamp? i :, You had to allow an extra ten minutes for lacing up your high laced shoes? You folded over your long-legged underwear to get it inside your long black cotton stockings? The school principal threw away the \in ari nki ng cup that used to be kept on the top of the pump in the school yard, and each child had to bring a cup from home for his own use? You provided fertilizer for your potted plants by taking a s~all shovel and a paper bag and looking in the street for some suitable horse buns (manure}? You had to remember to empty the drip pan under the ice box before you went to bed? You shaved a cake of soap into the wash boiler and boiled the white clothes o.n the top of the kitchen range? �Sunday, July second was the dat e of the Payne family reunion at the home of Glen and Evelyn Payne east of Ignacio.

As the old DC:RGistation was transformed into the Parish Hall it underwent a~other paint job. It was also used as a Day Care Center, the American Legion Hall etc. Reflecting the earnest and outspoken nature of the people of Ignacio the arishioners were asked for a. resident priest. Over early opposition their voices began to be heard in· various d:Loceasan meetings throughout Southwestern Colorado. ·In 1975, a missionary priest from the Order of the Divine rdora i,:issionaries offered his services to Bishop Busell to serve the co~. .rrrrunity for three years. On April 5, 1976 the Parish began the new experience of having a full time pr·iest, Fr. Donald Castonguay. Paint and local talent concerted the old baggage room of the depot to a suitable office and rectory. At the present tir:::e the building is also being used for church services as the St. Ignatius Catholic Church is being torn down and plans for a new building a1~e in the !!:aking for the third time in this century.

I do not r emember him since he died shortly after I was born, but my mother told me he was a blacksmith at the old Indian Agency north of town. Before my □other married John , she was married to Julian Buck. My half-brother, Daniel Buck , attended the Sa.nta Fe Indian School, but died while he \-;as still a young man. My two half-sisters were July Turner and Ellen Watts. July was kicked by a horse and died while she was a young girl . 11 "I was born February 22, 1901.t-, at the Southern Ute Agency. The long white building where I was born is still there. The first place I t..:an remember living was a canvas wigwam l<;>cated just across the bridge east from Ignacio . Since· my mother was a widow, she worked very hard making beadwork and beaded rtoccasins and l eather saddles to sell. She taught I!le to do beaded belts and moccasins . 11 "When I was 5 years old she sent me to the Southern Ute Boarding School. Dolly Watts, Edith Burch and Ollie Tyler started at the sar::e time. We all cried. We were afraid and we didn 1 t want to go . It was just as bad as we thought it would be. The big girls pinched us and teased us . The next year I got to go to Spring Creek School. It was a small country school with a lot of Anglo children. That's where I learned English." "In 1918 was the terrible flu epidemic and my mother died from pneumonia. I went to live with my cousin Page Hright at La Boca. I helped herd the sheep and do other work. It was at La Boca School I finished 8th grade. A few years later I met Amos Eagle. Amos liked to do farm work. He had worked as a farm laborer at Rocky Ford . We were married at the court house in Durango. Our first ho::ue was a 3 room aqobe house on my mother 1 s Spring Creek Allotment. It was a warm house and big enough for us at that tine. Amos was a good farmer. He raised hay and gr ains and sheep and cattle. He sold cows whenever we needed money . In the winter he sold hay from a big haystack to the white people. We had many good neighbors. We helped them and they helped us. I can remember helping the white ladies can cherries and other food for winter. Amos had a buggy with a top which we drove to Ignacio on Saturdays to buy food and see the people." 11 Sometimes today at the store I see people which I remember from those days, but they are old ladies now and I have forgotten their names. I remember the San Ignacio Fiesta many years ago. The Spanish people put up little stands to sell fruit and tortillas and there were foot races .and horse races. 11 11 • Amos and I had 4 children and adopted one. Ivy is the oldest, then Mildred, who died when she ·was a baby, Lenora, who died of fever when she was 12 and Judy. Also we adopted Beverly." "We sold my mother's al.lottment to the tribe and moved to town about 1956. Amos died 6 years ago." "I always liked the Bear Dance and used to cook food for the feasts . With one hand stiff, I can't do my beadwork and I can't cook very easily, but I still like to - go to the powwow to .listen and watch. 11 interviewed by Shelby Smith �·• L anan Bryan , now in the U.

NELSON & ENOLA Ten year old Nelson and his family had bedded down for the night. Their covered wagon was parked beside the trail, its huge wheels braced with rocks on the sloping meadow. The hobbled team was silent. Soft snores came from the tents. Unknown to the family, large flakes of snow had begun to fall. Suddenly, the silence of night was broken by the drumming of hoofs and the clatter of wagon wheels on the rocky mountain trail. A voice out of the night shouted, "Wake up! Wake up! J:.t ":11 all fall at once. Get off the pass! 11 The family came alive. By the.time cooking utensils and camping gear were thrown into the wagon and the team hitched, several inches of snow had settled to the ground. Though the crest of the pass was only a few hundred yeards up the trail, the snow was slick on the rocks and the high altitude made the horses heave f:or breath. Desperate slow progress was made until one ·of the young boys, leaning over the right front side of the wagon. seat , lost his balance and fell to the ground in front of the wagon wheel, forcing the wagon to stop. Once stopped , Mr. Mackey never moved it a.gain. The sharp crest of the pass was only 40 yards away, but the horses were winded and could do no more. Nelson's father unhitched one of the horses and rode o~f into the night. Mrs. Mackey and the children gathered rocks as a base for a fire in the wagon and closed the flaps. By mid- morning of the next day Mr. Mackey and some loggers he found do'\im the mountainside, returned with two teams with bob-sleds. The family unloaded all they could and travel 30 miles down the pass to the small to"m of Crooked River, Oregon where they spent the rest of the winter. Nelson Hamil ton Mackey was born in Te::as on August 7, 1898. Most Americans 11 have a desire to see new horizons, but Nelson's father had it stronge He never spent more than one winter in any one place until he was too old to travel anymore," Nelson recalls. Because of the travel Nelson never spent much time in grammar school, but he learned a good deal from his travels. Besides he's been to college, "I went in the front door of one and out the back one day. That was enough for me." When the Mackeys did settle down, they chose the Animas valley 2½ miles north of Aztec. Nelson went to work for the Pointer and Baldwin Cattle Co. as a cow puncher. Grazing land for the herd was the reservation land in the region of Charcoal Canyon (Chaco Canyon) 70 mi. south of Farmington. Before long Nelson was foreman of the outfit and took pride in the rough and ready way of life of the range. One Christmas Mr. Pointer, Nelson and several other hands went to Farmington for the holidays. Early Christmas morning Nelson's group was pretty well bored and decided to rouse up the town. Their plan included a race down main street with pistols firing, a circle of the Post Office and the Bank and a grand escape across the Bloomfield Bridge into the country. According to Nelson, 11 It .was working fine. We ripped down Main, shooting up the tovm, circled the Post Office and Bank and were off. Every man woman and child was out in the streets yelling that the Post Office had been robbed. 11 As Nelson went careening around a corner behind several other hands, his horse sli pped and threw him. 11 I slid on one side of my face clear to the other side of the street. Before I could pull myself up Charlie Lewis, the Marshall, had me by the back of the neck and was saying, 'I've got one of em anyway.' �,;z { Just then ¥.i.r. Pointer came a galloping up from another direction and yelled, 'Turn him loose, we just about had them till he rell. 1 The other hands rode like heck for the river and hid out. The Marshall swallowed our tale. If he had ever found out about our part in it he'd have killed us. 11 When WW I started all of Nelson's hands were drafted in one day. Nelson was exempted to manage the herd. He was left almost alone with a large herd in an empty land. Mr. Pointer finally brought 12 Navajo boys 10-14 years of age to help him move the cattle. nwe managed, 11 Nelson says, 11 but I told Baldwin if we ever have another war, they aren ' t going to exempt me. I 'd rather go to war. " . 7,-~. In 1923 an argument among Nelson and some his buddies resulted in ·an unexpected and wonderful tripo One of his friends was reading Zane Gray 's .novel The Riders of ~qe Purnle Sa_g__~. In it Zane · tells about a Mormon settlement in -the Grand Canyon and describes the geography and unusual features of that area. Nelson and his buddies got into a hot argument about whether the setting of the story was real or not9 The dispute got so heated that the whole bunch packed their bed rolls and cooking gear andset out for the Grand Canyon to see for themselves. Except for the time Nelson and his horse fell down a bluff into the San Juan River and lost all his gear~ the trip was a great adventure. "We found everythi.ng we ·went to see, 1 Nelson says. In the summer· of 1923 when Nelson wat, 25, his father told him about a pretty littJ.e long-haired girl living on the next place~ "He knew I ·was shy, but I went up to my Dad I s place soon after th.at and my sisters made me acquainted with Enola Hansen o She was 17 years old a...".ld pretty . Her hair was all pinned up. I wanted to s ee how long it was, so I pulled a few l)ins out and took it down. Then I decided I'd kiss her once before she ·went home. I was shy before tlw,t, but I got OY6l' .Lt: when I met th.at girl. WheJ.1 her folks heard she had been over here with a wild co:vrboy, they put a quick stop to that. 11 From then on Enola ar:.d Nelson had to take what chances they could to see one another . The next s ummer when Enola was 18 Nelson told Mr. Hansen he 1 d like to marry Enola. Mr. Hansen thought about it a minute and replied, "I don I t k.."1.ow what good it would do you kids to get married, 11 One of Enola 1 s sisters 11 replied, What good did it do you and Mama to get married?" He didn't have any answer to that, so Nelson and Enola took the chance, went to Aztec and got married. Shortly afterward they moved to Arizona for a year. One character they met there, they'll never forget. Coming home one day they found an outla.w in their house. His name was Cotton .James (the Cotton came from his pale blond hair). Mr. James said, 11 I reckon I ' ll stay here a while. 11 Nelson replied, 11 I dontt see why we can't get along together. 11 The reason Cotton wanted to stay was simple. He had a severe gunshot wound in his upper chest and was treating himself. His unorthodox method of treatment included pouring hot vinegar into the wound and drinking vinegar with sugar. 11He cured himself, too, 11 Enola recalls. Nelson never expected to be put in jail for marrying Enola, but it very nearly happened a short time after Cotton came to live with them. Apparently,,_ since Enola was very small and could have passed for younger than her 1~ years, someone started the rumor that Nelson was living unmarried ~Tith a 12 year old girl. The marshall pounded on the door, accused Nelson of living 1v.lth a minor and was proceeding to arrest him. ) Cotton stuck a shotgun out a window in the l1arshall 1 s .face and told him, I'm sending Mrs. Mackey out with her marriage license. You read it and read it good and then get yours·elf' off this place quick. 11 The �3- Marshall did ash~ was told and appeared very happy to leave. ·When the Mackeys moved back to the San Juan Valley, autos were beginning to appear in the area. There probably weren't more than 2~3 cars in Aztec at the time, but the town marshall had put up a 15' mph speed limit sign at each end or t own . Nelson was driving his team with a wagon the first time he saw the sign. Immediately he whj_pped his horses up a...Tld whipped them all the ·way th.rough town, scattering people right and left . The marsh.all on his little motorcycle came putting after him and stopped Nel son at the other edge of toi,m. After a good cussing, the marshall asked what was the big idea or racing through towr.i.o Nelson replied that he had seen the new speed l imit posted and was just trying to make it. The first cuss ing he· got •ii as nothing compared to the one he •got then. . Tlie Hackeys lived on Yellowjacket Hill a while, then moved ' to Spring Creek, then settled on .M iddle Mesa south of Allison. It was wild country down there in 1935. No road existed. Nelson cut his own road up the mesa . They ran cattle, made hay and rais ed a little grain on dry lando There was one poor road to Tiffany. Most of their shopping ·was done ,-Tith Frank Leonard in Ignacio or ·with Morris Levy·at the s t ore :i.n Tiffany. Occasionally, Nelson and Enola would catch the train at Tiffany for some shopping in Durango. . Five child:r.en were born to the Hackeys. Allis Enola, 1.925; Rose v., 1929; Nelson Pinkie, 1932; Janie Pearl, 1934 (Janie is now deceased); and Jack Melvin, 1937. Living in so isolated a place as Hiddle Mesa vas in those days made the children very shy. 11 Whenever anyone ,-10uld ride up, which happened only rarely, the kids would run for the hill above the house and stay there until t he stranger s were goJ",P.. 11 The kids were put to work clearing the land with a grubbing hoe. Nelson followed ·with the team and cha:tns for the la:cger shrubs and trees. As e£.. ch child reached 18, Nelson offered tbem 40 e.cres or ~~40.00. They al ways took the 40 acres. In 1949 Drummond Proctor, a car salesman, told Nelson it was time for him to trade for a car. Drummond knew that Nelson had never driven a car in his life, but he said, "You take your buggy on home and send Pinkie over in a few days. I'll teach him how to drive and he can bring the car home and teach you. 11 The deal was made. Pinkie got his lessons and headed home. The only problem was the road. It was suitable for buggy wheels. The car high centered on a rock. The pan was knocked orr and the engine burned up before the car ever got home. Nelson worked for the Trask Lumber Company for five years. The good in·c·ome was very attractive, but once Middle Mesa became home neither Enola or Nelson could stay away from it very long. June 21, 1974 was the ~,fa,ckey's 50th Wedding Anniversary. It is apparent their long years together have not dimned their affection for one another. "Mister has al·ways liked to kiss the girls, but I never get jealous," Enola says with a smile. W.aa t she clearly · knows is that no other "girl" will ever catch his eye quite like the little longhaired girl he met at Riverside in the summer of 1 23. May they both have all the happiness and good memories which 50 years of loyalty, and child-rearing and hard work can bring.

Some fo t.he audience giggled, others bellowed out loud . A few prepared to wa lk out. Then the concert began. Mar garet Steinbuch of Cinc innati, a lifelong violinist and now a conve1i. to the carpenter's ~aw, bent her instrument slightly and pl ayed. Out ca111e a haunting sound, a cross behvecn a wail and a twang, beautifully in tune. The audie1ice hushed. She opened with "Beautiful Ohio," her theme song. Then she went into "Autumn Leaves" and "Hawa iia n Wedd ing Song." F or a fi nale , she push -pulled her bow a-::-ross · the saw's s mooth edge to •~xecute a victorious polka. Her a udience clapped a n a ccompanimt'nt. T he concert ended in a burst of appla use. Mrs. Steinbuch began playing the musical saw four yea1·s ago and now gives concerts throughout Ohio, Rentucky and Indiana. She has a lso launched a crusade to perpetuate the musical saw as a n a rt form . ''I'm afraid t he saw is dy ing out as a m us ical instrument," she says, "and if my concer ts can prevent this, I'll have achieved my goal. · "I'm 70. To my knowledge there's not another person in Cincinnati playing the saw. I'm teaching the young woman neA"t door ho\v to play, but I want chj]dren all over the count ry to g ive it a try. If their m usical g randparents will learn t o play it, they ca n teach it to their gi·a ndchild ren. \Vhat a w onderful w ay to bridge the gener ation gap." If you love a garden but are physically u nable to t end a regula i.- one, i-ain gutters are your answer. White aluminum industrial rain gutters, 5 inches ·,-.,_.ide by 5 inches deep, can be installed on t errace, porch, or in the house. Buy whatever length yo u want, install it where it's most convenient, then a rra nge small potted p.lants inside it. The only wor k fo r yo u will be wat ering your flower s a nd hetbs when needed (with no worry about spillage on t il e, rug or other floori ng), and rearranging them whe n the mood strikes. With the garden so high, even a person in a wheelchair can have a full-fledged garden at his fingertips -literally! Charles D.
