      CAIN'S RUN
      February 1906
      Mrs. G.A. Dye, on the strength of the oil boom, has traded her thoroughbred leghorn rooster to George Board for a buggy. Mr. Dye was so well pleased with the buggy that he made Mr. Board a present of a calf that he had no use for. Mr. Board is also very proud of his rooster.

  - Death Notes
    - Note from Phyllis (Dye) Slater: My grandma, Margaret L. Wyatt Dye was raised by her grandma Wyatt, (Louisa Butcher Wyatt) on Cain's run.....Grandma Margaret never went to school and could not read or write but she raised a wonderful family....A great mother and had to be a hard worker, especially in those days...I remember a story that they told about the house burning down and they lived in the barn for a year until they could build it back. I believe it was Asa who was born in the barn... Not sure it was Asa, but believe I am correct.
