WHAT STOCKTONITES WERE DOING 98 YEARS AGO

Body
Mr. and Mrs. George Maddy arrived from Oklahoma City last Saturday. By Monday George had become the owner of the J. B. Graham property on Second Street south and at once commenced clearing the grounds preparatory to the erection of three $5,000.00 residences of different designs to face east. George is an expert stucco builder and has several forces of hands on construction in Oklahoma. Within three weeks he will have materials and workmen on the ground and will commence simultaneously of the three houses. They will be sold on the installment plan. He will engage in stucco building on a large scale in Stockton and no doubt many new homes will go up this season in Stockton. We confidently look for a large building program this year, in addition to the completion of the courthouse and the erection of the big high school building.
