Activi

There are others that were active officially and otherwise in the early history of which brief mention should be made, aside from references to them in some of the stories told in this work. There was J. E. Marsteller, who came in eighteen eighty-six, when Harrison (then called Summit) was a tent town; who worked first at the carpenter trade and then for a long time was engaged in mercantile lines. There is Geo. Gerlock, cowpuncher, business man, banker; John A.

Anderson, who came cut to the Emmons & Brewster ranch in the early days ; Ed. F. Pontius, who has been in public and semipublic life for about thirty-five years ; the Davis family, the Schnurrs, the Jordans, the McGinleys, the Halls, the Lowrys. the Wertz's, the Meyers. Fred now being county treasurer; the Cherrys, Earl Cherry being the county clerk and to whom this chronicler feels a debt of gratitude for assistance in compiling this history.

The list of officials in Sioux county for efficiency from beginning to the present time, stand high in the counties of the Panhandle. The records were and are well kept, and these that we have met are splendidly courteous and will go out of their way to accommodate the public and the stranger.
