Blair
Railroad Depot, c. 1909
East end of
1880 (wooden) depot with a crowd of students.
Caption reads: "In 1909, when Reed O'Hanlon, Winfield
Ross and Erwin Miles won a state debating tournament, school was
dismissed so students could meet the train. Nearly every
teen-ager in town was at the station, but the modest champions
failed to show up."
