[Resource: BEHIND THESE MOUNTAINS ]
Judge W.C. Adam's
Thompson Falls. Excerpt--"It was claimed he [Dr. Knapp] came across the state line from Idaho to Trout Creek to attend some cases of typhoid fever," the newspaper reported. Knapp was found guilty in Judge W.C. Adam's court, and fined $50.00. This affected all of the small towns in the west end of the county, since medical help was so scarce. Noxon had Mrs. George Buck, who it was rumored lacked only her surgical degree in medical training, before she came to Noxon. Dr. Peek was in Thompson Falls. Mrs. Annie Allan, at Heron, and Mrs. Stella Bauer, at Noxon, were midwives."
A.S. Ainsworth
Thompson Falls. Excerpt--"The Inter-State Power Company, represented by A.S. Ainsworth, began condemnation proceedings against John Pugh (and wife), J. Anna Kline, Lois Laffay (sic, LaFey), John and Lottie Colbert, W.J. Johnson and J.P. Olson to get land near Heron for the proposed dam. H.O. Bond, Esq., represented the people in District Court, 4th Judicial District, Sanders County. The power company won, and the court awarded Pugh $892.50; Laffay (sic LaFey) and Kline, $2,362.50; and Colberg, Johnson and Olson $246. These amounts were later reduced under appeal."
