Page: Mr. and Mrs. C.H. Hammond, of 422 East State Street, arriving last evening from an extended visit in the east. Leaving here early in June, they first spent several months with a son and daughter in Detroit, Michigan. Later they were guests of another daughter at Three Rivers, from which point they made trips to neighboring towns, visiting friends and former neighbors of twenty-five years ago. In the seven months elapsing since leaving Redlands they have experienced a range and variety of weather from the sultry days of the eastern summer to zero weather with plenty of snow and good sleighing. On the return trip, at Rollins, Nevada, they ran through a blizzard, with the snow sifting into the sleepers and the thermometer down to 25 degrees below zero. Mr. Hammond came to Redlands when it was known as Lugonia, about twenty-two years ago, his family joining him several years later. While they thoroughly enjoyed their visit in the east, they are more than pleased to be at home again, feeling as they do that there is no place quite the equal, for a place of residence, to our own thriving little city, Redlands.
