Wooten Richardson sold the property on which most of downtown Ruston is located to Mr. Russ.

Also included in this book is the story of Miss Sophia Stone, (later Mrs. W H Cook jr) a famous Home Economics instructor for years in Ruston schools, about the day she and Henry Darby were kidnapped by Bonnie & Clyde.
