Barton & Bailey

This photo was taken in 1915. The Barton & Bailey show folded in Montana and Wm. P. Hall paid the freight to get it back to his farm. Incidentally, John Barton continued to pay his debt to Wm. P. Hall and a couple years later a note is found in the Wm. P. Hall papers at CWM that says his debt was paid in full.

That's not to say that other people didn't pay their debts, but Mr. Barton's note is the only one that still survives.
