Pr NEWS OF THE DAY The L. E. Downey grocery was closed today for invoice. As soon as the invoice is made the new proprietor, Arnold Priest, will open the store to the public. [Rochester Sentinel, Monday, January 3, 1910] PRIEST GROCERY SOLD Considerable surprise in Rochester’s commercial world was caused today, when it was learned that A. M. Priest had sold his grocery to Frank Marsh who has conducted a similar business in the same block for several years. The Priest grocery stock will be invoiced this evening and the new owner will take possession at once. The Marsh grocery stock will be moved to the room now occupied by Priest, and the two stocks will be consolidated. Mr. Priest, the retiring owner, retained his huckster wagons and will pay his entire attention to his different routes. Both stores enjoy a good business and Mr. Marsh will surely continue his excellent patronage. [Rochester Sentinel, Tuesday, May 10, 1910] PRIEST DAIRY [Rochester, Indiana] PRIEST DAIRY IS SOLD TO MISHAWAKA PEOPLE A deal was closed Tuesday in which The Priest Dairy, operated for the past several years by Arnold Priest and sons Robert and Donald, became the property of Mr. and Mrs. Harry H. Hogue. The Hogues assumed active management of the business at once and will retain Robert and Donald Priest in their service. Hogues formerly lived in Mishawaka, where for the past few years he has been engaged in kindred work to that which he is now in. Accompanying the family, was Mr. Isaac Hogue, father of the new dairy proprietor who will make his residence on the dairy farm west of Rochester. Mr. Priest has purchased a grocery and meat market in Mishawaka and has taken over the active management of the business. [The News-Sentinel, Thursday, January 20, 1927] PRINCE WILLIAM OF SWEDEN [Rochester, Indiana] PRINCE WILLIAM, SWEDEN, PASSES THRU ROCHESTER Prince William of Sweden, second son of King Gustav V, passed through this city at noon today by motor while on his way from South Bend to Indianapolis, where he will lecture Wednesday evening. The royal visitor is on a lecture tour of the United States. The prince, who is a big game hunter of world wide renown, is lecturing on the subject “Hunting Big Game in Pygmy Land.” Prince William was met in South Bend this morning by a delegation of Indianapolis business men headed by Col.

[The News-Sentinel, Wednesday, October 12, 1927] PRIZE BULL DAY [Rochester, Indiana] UNDERWOOD PRIZE BULL TO BE PRESENTED TO THE COMMUNITY OF ROCHESTER ON MARCH 11TH T. M. Palmer, Farm Products Agent of the Erie Railroad company arrived in Rochester yesterday afternoon and is making arrangements for the awarding of the Underwood prize bull which Rochester won through the close co-operation in making the Better Bull Special such a big success last fall. The local Young Men’s Business Association through their president Mr. Otto Carlson, R. S. Lundin the County Agricultural Agent and others are working closely with Mr. Palmer in arranging for a big program for March 11th at which time President Underwood of the Erie
Pr railroad will present Fouracres Horace Brown, the bull from his prize herd at Wauwautosa, Wis., to the community of Rochester. Fouracres Horace Brown, No. 233,743, was born October 12th, 1923, is solid color, has black tongue and switch, and is a son of Fouracres Majesty Houpla and Fouracres Fairy Cupid, who has a silver medal register of merit record as a three year old with 645 pounds fat and just recently completed a record of 790 pounds fat. As soon as more of the details for the program are worked out, they will be announced through the Rochester News-Sentinel. [NOTE: See Prize Bull Day] [The News-Sentinel, Rochester, Indiana, Tuesday, February 3, 1925] WILL HOLD “BULL DAY” PROGRAM IN GYMNASIUM An important meeting will be held in the new [Whitmer] gymnasium in Rochester on March 11th at 1:30 p.m. when President Underwood of the Erie railroad will present a fine Jersey bull to the Rochester community for having the best attendance and for showing the greatest interest and co-operation when the “Better Bull Special” was run across Northern Indiana last fall. Twelve communities in northern Indiana competed for the bull. Mr. Underwood’s bull will be a very valuable asset to our community. The bull is from a family of very high production. His dam produced 790 pounds of butterfat in the year just ended. How good this production is may be realized when one knows that the production of the average Indiana cow is only 161 pounds of butterfat. The bull will be used by Jersey cattle men who are interested in breeding good animals. A bull club will be formed of these men and the bull will be turned over to them. On March 11th, which will be known as Prize Bull Day the program will consist of talks by President Underwood, Director G. I. Christie of Purdue University, and Mr. W. H. Senour of Brookville, Ind. The plans call for a trial of the scrub bull. There will be judges, lawyers, jury, witnesses, and everything else necessary for a regular trial. Following the trial will come the funeral of the scrub bull, with numerous pall bearers, and a funeral sermon by Mr. Senour, Roy S. Lundin, county agricultural, has announced. [The News-Sentinel, Rochester, Indiana, Saturday, February 21, 1925] PRIZE BULL DAY BRINGS THRONGS IN FOR PROGRAM “Prize Bull Day,” the date, time and place of which had been before the people of Fulton county for many weeks, occupied the attention of the farmers and merchants today and they flocked to the [Whitmer] gymnasium [SE corner Sixth & Fulton] in large numbers shortly after noon to be present at the program and to witness the giving away of “Four Acres Horace Brown, 233743, prize bull of the herd of Frederick Underwood, president of the Erie railroad. The program was started a little late in order to allow the Erie officials to be present. They arrived at 1:40 on the Erie from Chicago in a private car and went immediately to the gymnasium. While word was received early this morning that President Underwood was delayed elsewhere and would not be present, later advise stated that he reached Chicago late last night and might be here. In case however the honor guest was absent his place in the ceremony was to be taken by Robbins, vice president of the Erie. About ten high officials from the executive offices at Chicago came for the celebration. Earlier arrivals were T. M. Palmer, farm production agent and Luther D. Fuller, chief agricultural agent who with Roy Lundin, county agent and Robert Shafer, president of the Young Men’s Business Association had charge of the details of the program. Others early on the scene were G. I. Christie, director of the Purdue university extension bureau, and W. H. Senour, of the American Jersey Cattle club. Several others prominent in agricultural work were expected to attend. The program was opened with music after which Mr. Lundin introduced Henry A. Barnhart who presided at the meeting. Robert Shafer was scheduled for a short talk after which was to come an explanation of the affair by Mr. Fuller. The address of the day was to be given by
