Andrew* Prather Jones

1857 - 1929  (72 years)

Letter - 1903, 11/ (about), Winter

from Stephen Lovelady Jones, typed on Waco-Times Hearld letterhead, to his cousin, Berry Butts. Speaks of the convenience of paved roads.

Letter is not dated, but he states he will celebrate 17 years with the paper, He was editor for the Waco Daily in 1887. Assuming that was his entry position, 17 year anniversary would be May 1904, indicating this letter might have been written winter 1903/1904.
On that basis, the trip to Beaumont would have been summer 1903, possibly for a reunion. The reunions rotated between Waco, Palestine and Beaumont. We know 1901 was Waco, 1902 then in Palestine, and 1903 in Beaumont.
