“Between the Creeks” Gwen Pettit This is a compilation of weekly newspaper columns on local history written by Gwen Pettit during 1986-1992 for the Allen Leader and the Allen American in Allen, Texas. Most of these articles were initially written and published, then run again later with changes and additions made. I compiled these articles from the Allen American on microfilm at the Allen Public Library and from the Allen Leader newspapers provided by Mike Williams. Then, I typed them into the computer and indexed them in 2006-07. Lois Curtis and then Rick Mann, Managing Editor of the Allen American gave permission for them to be reprinted on April 30, 2007, [email protected]. Please, contact me to obtain a free copy on a CD. I have given a copy of this to the Allen Public Library, the Harrington Library in Plano, the McKinney Library, the Allen Independent School District and the Lovejoy School District. Tom Keener of the Allen Heritage Guild has better copies of all these photographs and is currently working on an Allen history book. Keener offices at the Allen Public Library. Gwen was a longtime Allen resident with an avid interest in this area’s history. Some of her sources were: Pioneering in North Texas by Capt. Roy and Helen Hall, The History of Collin County by Stambaugh & Stambaugh, The Brown Papers by George Pearis Brown, The Peters Colony of Texas by Seymour V. Conner, Collin County census & tax records and verbal history from local long-time residents of the county. She does not document all of her sources. -

Cover photos by (clockwise from top left): Bob Nichols, Don Poggensee, Jerry Walker, and Jeff Vanuga, USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service. CEAP—Strengthening the science base for natural resource conservation The Conservation Effects Assessment Project (CEAP) was initiated by USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), Agricultural Research Service (ARS), and Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service (CSREES—now National Institute of Food and Agriculture [NIFA]) in response to a general call for better accountability of how society would benefit from the 2002 Farm Bill’s substantial increase in conservation program funding (Mausbach and Dedrick 2004). The original goals of CEAP were to estimate conservation benefits for reporting at the national and regional levels and to establish the scientific understanding of the effects and benefits of conservation practices at the watershed scale. As CEAP evolved, the scope was expanded to provide research and assessment on how to best use conservation practices in managing agricultural landscapes to protect and enhance environmental quality. CEAP activities are organized into three interconnected efforts: Bibliographies, literature reviews, and scientific workshops to establish what is known about the environmental effects of conservation practices at the field and watershed scale. -

EXPERIENCES of a PACKER in WASHINGTON TERRITORY MINING CAMPS DURING the SIXTIES (Concluded from Vol
EXPERIENCES OF A PACKER IN WASHINGTON TERRITORY MINING CAMPS DURING THE SIXTIES (Concluded from Vol. XIX., page 293). Well, that morning when Patterson reached the barber shop he found Pinkham in the barber shop getting shaved; Patterson just walked over to the barber chair, drew out a big dragoon six shooter and placing it against Pinkhams ear shot him through the head. After he was shot Pinkham jumped up and ran to the front door, and fell there dead. I was right there at the time and saw him lying there in a pool of blood. Patterson "gave himself up," and his crowd being in control of things he was later acquitted by a packed or intimidated jury. Patterson was a bad man, he had killed a sea captain in Portland, and murdered a number of men in "self defense." When a bad man wanted to commit murder with impunity he picked a quarrel with his vic tim and killed "in self defense." In going from Walla Walla to the Kootenay mining district we traveled over the Mullan Road to the crossing of the Touchet River, the site of the present town of Prescott; thence to the Snake River, which we crossed sometimes at Silcott's or Lyons Ferry and sometimes at Texas Ferry. We struck the Mullan Road again at Rock Creek and followed it to the crossing of the Spokane River, or Herrin's Bridge, as the place was then called. This bridge was located near the Idaho line, about a half mile above the place where Col. -

The Old Oregon Trail As Told by the Trailers” Compiled by W
The following is reproduced from “The Old Oregon Trail as told by the Trailers” compiled by W. W. Stevens, published in The Baker Morning Democrat from Oct. 1912 through April 1913. This copy is made from a typewritten draft corrected in ink which is stored in the Oregon Room of Baker County Library. Spelling, capitalization and punctuation of the original have been maintained, except in the case of a clear typographical error. In case of an editorial word choice, the editor selected the inked, handwritten correction. Following the text, the editor has also provided an index of historic people, events and places. The Old Oregon Trail as told by the Trailers While it is yet possible to get from first mouth some of the reliable history of the old Oregon Trail, the dangers encountered and the hardships endured by the early emigrants and adventurers that passed through and settled up this country, the writer hereof has recently interviewed several of the oldest citizens with the object in view of gleaning, collecting and preserving such reminiscences as seem to be of historical importance and perhaps of interest to those who are to come after us. After the long and hazardous journey made by Hunt, Crooks & Co., across the continent in 1811-12 in the interests of John Jacob Astor, there were few excursions made through all these western wilds or deserts, as they were then termed, except by occasional hunters and trappers until about the year 1842, then the fame of the great Oregon country began to spread through the east or what was then the western borderland of civilization. -
