Dunbar 273-2934 The citizens have an almost "frantic" interest in their Post Office in Rough and Ready so whether we do or don't get anew one, just now, everyone at least wants to know all he can about the old ones past. The first post office was operating in Rough and Ready when California was still a territory. The mail came by mule back out of Sacramento as early as the fall of 1849. Mr. Alexander M, Blanton served as postmaster, probably operating as a territorial appointee. Mr. Marcus Nutting became the first federal appointee on July 28, 1851. The mail was distributed at the hotel desk in the old Downey House (where the market center is now.) How many of the hotel owners ever became official postmaster, I haven't found out yet, but most of them did the work, Mary Downey, J. M. Walling, H. Schroeder and many others. When Mrs. Gertrude Fippin became postmaster she wanted the post office nearer home and they built a small building beside the old John Fippin home. I remained there several years before being returned to the hotel, In 1943, the towns population had decreased to approximately 200 people, due to the economic devastation caused by the war, and the post office was closed. Mrs, Letitia Vroman was postmistress at the time and the . family moved to a defense plant area to find work, On June 16, 1948, the post office was reopened in the present building, built by Andy Rogers. There was an impressive ceremony. Mr. George G. Rolfe, postal inspector of Sacramento, was on hand to dedicate the post office and administer the oath of office to Mrs, Geneva Rogers, the new postmistress. A stage coach driven by "Ned" Granholm with Frank Fippin as shotgun, delivered the first mail. Dignitaries came by stage, by horse and buggy, and even by the Twin Cities bus. There was a full day of revelry TAISEN that, believe it or not, doesn't register over $1.00. You can bet he won't actually be using it in the service station, It was purchased for the Bennallack Grocery Store in 1913. It has the elaborate cast bronze face plate, all scrolls and curliques, which had become practically the company's trademark until recently. Brownie was polishing it up to look pretty and bolting it down so it wouldn't
wander off. * Mr. and Mrs, Frank O'Neal have both been ill. They seem to be recuperating nicely now. It's good to have Mary back to her usual joyous self. She was quite concerned for her husband for a few days. %* In the spring "a young man's fancy --"'. This happens to young women, too, I missed the big event when it happened to Miss Judy K, Cleek of Hilaire Acres. She became the bride of Archie ‘M. Cooper on April 20. They are both members of the 1969 NUHS graduating class. Judy works at the rangers office in Nevada City inher spare time. They have been making their home in Grass Valley. ape David Seigfried was transferred from the San Diego Naval Training Base to the Treasure Island Base for extended training, David's elected field is electronics and he has done so well with it that he may be able to stay in the "Naval Training" field. so his new base would be Mare Island. So nice and handy to home, his mother tells me, * Mrs. Noreen Harwood has been in Salt Lake City visiting relatives and attending to some business matters. Now that school is out she will be joined by her husband and youngest son who plan to bring her home with them. Cinthia Harwood who was hurt in a night skiing accident last winter is still recuperating with unhappy broken bones, and not able to make the trip. Oldest son Terry Airman lst Class is still at Nellis Air Force Base out of Las Vegas, Nevada, * Mr. and Mrs. Luther Hill and their three children got their beautiful new double trailer home (24 ft. by something or other long) last Tuesday. They live almost at the end of the Wildwood Acres road, Mr. Hill is an experienced upholsterer and plans a shop in the area in the near future. At present, he has set his equipment up at home. The Hills are neighbors of the Van Johnsons, oF ok Also close neighbors are the Harold Brown family of Concord, The Browns have four sons but two have already flown the nest. They started their new home last weekend. While the house is being built they are camping in a big 15 x 35' tent, The scenery there is beautiful, There is swimming available in a nearby lake, and Deer Creek is close by for fishing, but 'm afraid this will be a working .. Campsite for a while, I IE a Sierratrio selected for Mini-corps job ROCKLIN — Three Sierra College students have been selected from over a thousand applicants from northern California to. work this summer on a Mini-Corps project.

J, DeLay, commander of the Grass Valley area of the California Highway Patrol advises. Two sections of the California Vehicle Code prohibit throwing things on highways, he said. us 28112 ~=prohibits throwing bottles, cans, garbage, glass, paper, or any subject likely to injure or damage traffic, or any offensive material of any kind, while Section 23111 prohibits throwing lighted cigarettes, cigars, ashes or other flame or glowing substance onto the highway. ; "These laws are enforced, But if drivers and passengers in vehicles use ash trays and keep other litter in a bag we'll have nothing to enforce, and that will suit us just fine." — The CHP commander also noted that citizens can assist in enforcing Section 23111 by reporting to the Department of Motor Vehicles the license number of any motor vehicle from which they see flaming or glowing substances thrown, The Department of Motor Vehicles will pass this information, together with the name of the registered owner of the vehicle, tothe State Division of Forestry, who will take appropriate action against the violator.
