Jasper County Democrat, Volume 15, Number 33, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 27 July 1912 — Yes, a “Member of the Gould Family.” [ARTICLE]

Yes, a “Member of the Gould Family.”

Speaking of the latest hot air dope in the Purtelle electric railroad matter, wherein “Percival Steele, a member of the Gould family,” writes Dr. Merry of Mt. Ayr -that the “matter of building the road, and the completion thereof is being pushed as rapidly as all the circumstances in connection therewith will permit,” the Hammond Times says: “Those who know Purtelle say that a letter from Percival Steele, referred to with awe as being a member of the Gould family, is discredited at the start from the fact that Steele has been associated with Purtelle all along.”
