February 21, 1924 "The funeral services for Mrs. Corrina Esther Sutherland, whose death occurred early last week at her home in Crook, were held Saturday afternoon at the First Baptist church in Sterling, Rev. E. Payne officiating. A large number of friends assembled to pay their final tribute to the life of Mrs. Sutherland, one who spent forty-seven years as a resident of Logan county. A few years ago she moved to Denver, but since last November has lived with her daughter, Mrs. Forrest Salisbury, at Crook.
Four children survive; Clara, who is now Mrs. Tenant of Marengo, Ill.; Helen, now Mrs. Forrest Salisbury of Crook: Earl who lives in Los Angeles, and Ray, a resident of Portland, Ore. There is also one surviving sister, Mrs. Henry, of Excelsior Springs, Mo. and one brother, William C. Harris of Sterling. Mrs. Sutherland was a member of the Baptist church for many years.
Burial was made in the Sterling cemetery, the following acting as pallbearers: Glen Morris, Ned Fish, Howard Simpson, and Charles Simpson. A quartet, composed of Mrs. Harry Karnhart, Mrs. E. Payne, T. K. Sutherland, and W. Mabry King, sang several songs, Miss Dorothy Dring playing the accompaniment.
In speaking of the life of Mrs. Sutherland, Rev. Mr. Payne said "Mrs. Sutherland helped to lay the foundations of the things that you and I enjoy today. There wae no Starling when she came here; no town, no railroads, no society. LIke other pioneers, she helped to lay the foundations and that is a very essential part of any kind of structure. The early pioneers laid this structure wisely and they laid it well. What we owe to the early pioneers of this western country, we will never know. Mrs. Sutherland was one of these pioneers."
March 1916 "The busy store conducted by the Harris brothers is the center of commercial activity in Padroni. Especially is this true at mail times, since one corner of the salesroom is occupied by the village post office. The Bell long distance telephone booth occupies another corner, the balance of the store being devoted to the various lines of goods which go to make up a large and well-arranged stock. A full assortment of staple and fancy groceries is carried and includes leading brands of canned, packaged and bottled goods, cured meats, fresh and dried fruits, hats, gloves, men’s furnishings, dry goods, patent medicines, notions, harness, etc., are also handled: also large quantities of produce - butter, eggs, poultry - are bought, sold and shipped.
Victor flour is received in large shipments and turned over at close prices. Soft drinks are served. A basement and outside warehouse are utilized for the storage of vegetables and reserve stock.
The firm consists of C. M. Harris (who is postmaster) and J A. Harris. The boys own both building and business, also a large ice house in connection. and an irrigated ranch four miles south of town. Mr. J. A. Harris, . who is never too busy to radiate a choice brand of optimism, operates the ranch. In winter he cuts ice - also in the summer for that matter.
Mr. C. M. Harris spends his idle moments in taking kodak pictures and in writing fire and life insurance. The gentlemen were born and raised in Logan county and are both good examples of what we can produce in the way of wide-awake, hustling, progressive business men."
