Notes for Mary Jane Startin
125"It would not be early history without the mention of Mrs. Stewart (sic), the hotel woman there. She weighed about 250 pounds, and could handle all situations. She'd just take a drunk by the collar, drag him to the door, and he would land in the sand bank. She had a heart of gold. If there was any sickness, or anyone was in trouble, she was right there with a helping hand. Church people, drunks, and all alike respected her."
