Somebody said Injun names don't count, but I gotta bring this one up. "Board Ruffey", yes that's what the cemetery marker says. I inquired of some old timers about it, and there was a confirmed story about Board. Around 1928 he became bedridden, helpless. It befell his nephew to care for Board, which was ok for a few days but the young nephew soon got a bellyful of Board messing the bedding. In a fit of rage the nephew struck Board repeatedly in the head with an axe. The town constable arrested the nephew, tried and convicted, he lived out his days in Folsom.


Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.
