Indian Butte County achieved national prominence through one of its distinguished citizens last week when word came from Providence, Rhode Island, that a Colonel Linton Jessup, wealthy manufacturer of that town, had died and left all his property to nearest kin. After great search it was discovered that said nearest relative was a man living right in the heart of our own glorious county, being none other than that lovable stormy petrel known as Lin Jessup, sometimes called ‘Cyclone.’
