well, it was interesting to me

While looking for something else, I found a bound bundle of photocopies my grandfather had sent me for Christmas in 1987. It was a chapter from Pioneer Days in the Southwest, printed in 1909, and this chapter was written by Grand-dad's grandfather, George B. Ely, who was born in 1840.
I thought of scanning it, then had a thought, which led to my finding this.
It's the whole book, and a cleaner copy than my photocopied one. I sent it out to a number of relatives, most of whom are also great-great-grandchildren of George Ely.
Hm. I have more things to do today, but suspect I won't get to them. Somewhat tuckered.
