Quite a sacrifice it was those men but they; doubled the population of Coffeyville by their enterprise. Some of them have now, passed to their reward but the good they did for this town will gather momentum for years and years to come.

Also who would like, to have their names go down in a list of the people who opposed this great. improvement for this gopd town and have futare generations point the finger of scorn at them? It is easy enough to knock but the fruits of knocking are just as certain as are the results of boosting.
