On making an official visit
here, for the purpose of install
ing Agent Covnick: it was our
privilege to interview Mr.. ]. S.
Olds, Route agent for the U. S.
Express Company. He was a
member of the B6le expedition
in 1883, and while in camp at
st. Cloud, received the first
news of the Indian massacre
at Breckenridge. He showed
relics and photos of old Fort
Abercrombie, in which. our Wis
itor was much interested: hav-
ing been at thefort in the early
days. Our name being attrac-
tive, produced the pleasing in
formation, that our guest was
intimately acquainted with
Major A. N. Edwards, and it at
forded him much pleasure to
know that the Major was the
esteemed and efficient Consul
General at Montreal, Canada.
He had also heard of and seen
the "Wicked partner" of the
Forum. The paper met with
his cordial appreciation. Years
have dealtlightly with Comrade
Olds; he speaks With the vivac-
ity of q soldier: the intelligence
of one who has been raise d:
embodying the courtesy of the
true gentleman. AS souve-
mir of his pleasant call, we gave
him six inch spike from the
Generals quarters at the old
"fort". He assured us that we
had "struck nail in the right
place." And we were glad to
meet an appreciative friend oi
our press companions.
