Some of the senior citizens from here and of the surrounding territory may be interested in this item: Michael Tower of 601 So. Ave. A., Port Ales, N. M., is much interested in tracing some of his relatives.  Mrs. Sam Jones, deceased, whose maiden name was Cotton, is one of their aunts, once lived on the farm now occupied by the Martin family with the Cotton family. Edith Cotton married Ben Pierce and is now seriously ill in Washington State.  Maybe someone would also remember the Cottons, who lived in the Cotton School District in the now northern portion of the Town of Mentor. Would be of interest to know if both Cotton families; were relatives.
