DAUGHTER OF FORMER EDITOR DIES
Word reached friends in Blair the first of the week that Mrs. Dora Sprague Johnson had passed away on Saturday night at her home in La Crescento, California.
Mrs. Johnson was the daughter of E. B. Sprague, former editor of the Blair Republican and was reared in Blair. After her marriage she moved to California where she has since resided. Older Blair residents will remember the Sprague family. Mr. Sprague built and resided in the home now occupied by Frank Simpson on east Colfax street.
