This place is the junction of the two
lines of the Burlington & Missouri River Railroad in Nebraska, that
have
been described. It is about four miles
east of Red Cloud. Its site is a pleasant one, but being so near the county
metropolis--Red Cloud--it has never
yet grown to be a village. It is merely a flag station. There is one little
store
and post office here. A good flouring
mill, though small, was built in 1876, by Polley & Son, who still operate
it
and do a good business.
