Passing of Pioneers

One by one the original pioneers are making a pilgrimage to another land. Two of those who were in the history of Redington some years ago are gone. Fred Putney, who died at ■ Torrington in the summer of 1919, was about twenty-five years ago living on Pumpkin Creek a few miles west of Redington. Fred Putney weighed six hundred and sixty pounds, by far the largest resident of the North Platte valley. He had had made for him a specially constructed motor car with the steering wheel in the center, and before his death which he saw approaching he had measurements taken and a coffin made -- the largest ever made by the Denver casket makers. A part of the side walls of the house had to be removed to carry the casket through.
