John Dutton, of route 1, Bangor, called to see us one day last week. He
says his son John, who is in the Coast Artillery at Ft. Crockett,
Texas,
expects to leave for oversea duty in the near future. He is a great
baseball palyer and according to some newspaper clippings, Mr. Dutton
stands right at the top as a pitcher.
John Dutton, who resides at Duttontown, is considered one of the best
mellon grower in Blount county. He tells us that from three acres he
sold $662.00 worth of melons the past season. A number of these melons
were hauled to Birmingham, some of them bringing almost a dollar each.
