BRUCEFIELD
•
'The folowing clipped from the
Idaho Statesman, may have some in-
terest for residents of Brucefield and
environs who will retneunber George
A. McLeod, a former resident, now
judge at Halley Blaine County, Ida-
ho. Judge McLeod is a brother of
Mrs. R. Pearson, .Goderich township.
Judge McLeod is doing a very impor-
tant work for his county one for
which future • generations will .• be
grateful:
iHAILEY—Inspired to preserve the
history of his county from the begin-
ning until the .present, because so
many of the old pioneers are passing
George McLeod, probate judge of
Blaine county, has completed a 12,000
word text, tracing the growth and de-
velopment• of an area that began as
Alturas country but since has been di-
vided into seven counties.
A feeling 'that 'the memory of
events that transpired in the natal
days of old Alturas county was grad-
ualiy slipping' promoted his work, the
author admitted, as well as the dis-
covery. of several irksome errors in
the work of other history recorders.
The judge carefully checked ail state-
ments that needed anthentioation and
oven coresponded with the land office
in Washington and Commissioner C.
C. Moor, former governor of Idaho.
The judge i himself is qualified to
record many things from memory. He
has been a resident of Wood river
section since 1886 and has been • in
nubile office for 30 'years, serving as
deputy and ;chief officer at yarious
posts. ,
Judge Mcl,eod's history is now ran -
fling by installments •. in the Haley
Times, and will probably be issued in
aok from later.
The history records ;. the political
oves perbtaining to :the life of Altur-
s county, then covering the area now
vided into Blaine. Elmore Goodin,
erome, Lincoln, Cassia and Mini -
deka counties. He tells of the events
and wordy battles that accompanied
every mo e to create a new. county,
Rellevne and Hailey, although less
than five miles apart, were one time
