FROM OK TEAM
To AUTO CARS

LAS ANIMAS, Colo, The last
of the monuments marking the Santa
Fe trail in Colorado was unveiled
at old Fort Bent recently by the
Daughters of the Revolution The
monument as we'll as the ground
on which it stands was donated by
A. E. Reynolds of Denver, This place
is interesting to Mr.. Reynolds as the
place where he began business in
Colorado.
This stands on the south side Of
the Santa Fe trail not far from the
Arkansas river. The Santa Fe trail
has now become one OF the great
automobile highways OF Colorado Al
points all along the route monuments
are placed, on which the words San
Ia Fe Trail reminds the tourist
that he is travelling the same route
the early pioneers followed and over
which rolled freight TO Santa Fe ana
the southeast.
The chief address of the day was
delivered TO Mrs. H l.. Lubers. grand
daughter of William Bent. who came
into the upper Arkansas valley in
1924 The place marked is the site
of the original Fort Bent. probably
the first habtation of white men Ia
Colorado. 1t was the scene of many
battles in the Indian and Civil wars.
