May 2, 1913 – In a brazen move, a local dairy farmer has reportedly been swindled out of his prized herd. W. S. Barlle, a respected member of the community, had entrusted his dairy operation to a trusted neighbor, Mr. Olson, living on Gilbert Creek just north of the city. But sources close to the investigation reveal that Mr. Olson’s intentions may have been far from altruistic.
