looking back toward the farmhouse from the pumping station. Rows are
waiting to be filled.

The pumping station.
Looks like a four cylinder engine with two carburators, gasoline
powered.
|
|
 |
I think this is the well
head itself. Looks like a diesel powered engine.

|
 |
Either the well head or
pumping station.

Another view of the
pumping station (or well head).

Grandad was very
interested in the life of outlaws. He owned a .44 caliber Russian made
Smith&Wesson that was confiiscated from a member of Jesse James Gang after a
robbery near Bardstown, Kentucky. He also left to me a double barrel Parker 12 guage shotgun that was borrowed and not returned. Pictures to follow. Poncho Villa was a favorite of his.
Here is a picture of Billy the Kid's grave taken in 1955. Another
current picture is next.
