A PIONEER

The death of Mrs. Ella Win
chester Felt at Denver, calls to
mind the fact that she was the
pioneer settler in what issnow the
richest agricultural part of the
San Luis valley.
She with her two sons and two
daughters built the first house and
barn in what is known q the Robb
district twenty-five years ago
Her husband, at the-tim of his
death, kept the fremont hotel in
Chicago. At about that time Chas.
E. Pratt, of Chicago, came to the
valley and surveyed aud plated a
town eight miles north Of Monte
Vista on the Gunbarrel road and
named it Bloomfield. Pratt had
no title to the ground upon which
he proposed to build . town-a
part of it was government land and
part belonged to the canal COM
paDy.
Pratt then returned To- Chicago
and began the ssle Of town lots.
Mrs. Felt became the purchaser of
few lots and Robt. Campbell and
others also invested in The new
town. Mrs. Felt came here and
built two-story house "a her lots
and at one time the town boosted
Of II residences.
Mrs Felt soon after Pc empted
a quarter section Of government
land and moved her towa building
there. When the new settlers be-
gan TO come to the valley, Mrs.
Felt provided them with meals and
lodging.
Mrs. Felt was a refinia and Gull
tured lady, q good entertainer and
business woman. She 1cnt her

daughter, Mary, married Frank
Anderson. receiver of the U. s.
land office at Del Norte at one
time and now doing business in
Chicago. The other daughter
married Fred Hyatt, now a resi-
dent Of the valley.
About a year ago Mrs. Felt met
with an accident, falling down
stairs. from which she did not
fully recover. She WAS about Is
years Of age at the time Of her
death.
