occupation listed as druggist and photographer

"Reminiscences of the long ago : being a historical sketch of the early settlement of Bethlehem, now Carmel and vicinity with an account of the Indians and of the doings and makeshifts of the early pioneers who have passed away with a partial list of their names and a list of the dead of Bethlehem-Carmel, an account of merchandising and other branches of business, accidents, suicides, shootings, fires, etc. up to l9ll"
Newspapers: Our first newspaper, "The Carmel Signal," was first issued October 13th, 1889, by L. J. Patty and L. J. Small, but after a time Mr. Patty dropped out and it was edited and published by L. J. Small, and later by Ed E. Small, Vern Patty, George Bowen and Hal Small, each had charg-e of it, but the day of discontinuance arrived August 10th, 1893. After this another was published for a short time by "Shorty" from Tipton I think called "The Carmel Register." Later commenced the "Carmel Star" by Verne Patty, and now we have the "Carmel Standard," published by Roberts and Patty, which, let us hope, may be long" continued.
