TOBACCO FROM 1862
EXCHANGE HAS INTERESTING
STORY OF STORED ROCKVILLE 5
SMOKUM. STRONG? YOU BET!

The following is taken from the CAL
ena Gazette:
The proprietor of the little store at
Rockville, Grant county, has in his
possession two barrels of tobacco
that has been in storage since the civ
il war. The proprietor of the store in
after he left his wife and son took
charge of the store. Shortly after the
fathers entrance into the union army
two barrels of loose tobacco arrived.
The wife. not being familiar with the
revenue laws, and feeling somewhat
stimid in regard to the matter, told
her son to put the tobacco in the eel
lar. There it has remained ever since.
1t is in good condition, perfectly dry
and well seasoned. It's little strong
for the new beginner but just right
for the old-timer.
