[or-roots] Meier & Franks

[Anne Comer]

Hi, all.        Does anyone remember a story that was posted here some 
years ago about a peddler who gave a new needle to an Oregon pioneer 
family whose precious needle had been lost?  I think he later founded 
Meier & Franks department store.   If anyone can dredge up that story, I 
would be grateful.

Thanks,   Anne

I have this message again because I am not sure if it got through to the 
list.  I beg your pardon if it gots to you twice, but better twice than 
not at all.  :-)
