Old Friends Meet
After years, Dick Potter, Stillwater county court house custodian, and William Lipsey of Molt were reunited by a radio broadcast.
As boys they were employed on the east fork of Spring creek near Lewistown, but with the job done, separated.
A short time ago, Rev. H. S. Tool devoted a weekly broadcast to Lewistown and in concluding thanked Potter for his assistance in gathering material. Lipsey was listening and heard the name.
Coming to town, he looked Potter up, only to discover he had been seeing him several times a year on visits to the court house, but failed to recognize him.
