Dr. Lee "Bud" Pattison, of Winona Lake and South Bend, is reported to have one of Warsaw's old landmarks in his yard at his home in South Bend. Dr. Pattison, who is blind, has had the old cigar store Indian, which stood for nearly half a century at the corner of Buffalo and Center streets or the corner now occupied by the Crownover Jewelry Store, painted in multi-colors, and floodlights show it off at night to passers-by. The old cigar store until sold some time ago by Chris Gilbertson was one of Warsaw's old landmarks. The old cast iron Indian weighs approximately 700 pounds.
Fifty-five years ago Theodore Evans, 84, left Warsaw, his old home town, after a boyhood in Pierceton, and went west. After a residence of many years in the west he returned to Indiana and is now located at Lagrange. Yesterday he visited The Times office and recalled that in 1856 he came to Warsaw as a small boy and during the Civil War hauled lumber from Pierceton to Warsaw by ox cart. While in Warsaw he is visiting his cousins, Hiram Ulrey, Levi Noggle and nephews, Andrew and Albert Sloane.
