My field is railroad history I have written several articles about railroad history that have been published. I have something that I will be glad to share with you if you will e-mail me back with your e-mail address. I have as a file on my computer a copy of 'THE OFFICIAL HOTEL AND RAILWAY GUIDE FOR TEXAS, OKLAHOMA TERRITORY AND INDIAN TERRITORY' DECEMBER 1905 EDITION. I will be more than glad to send it to you as an attachment then you can burn it to a "CD" or download it as a file on your computer. This is a rare find and I am sure you will like it.

Moseley Sun, 25 Jul 2010 20:58:33 +0000 http://www.AbandonedOK.com/?page_id=991#comment-1429 I noticed on "Ghost Towns" that there are two towns you didn't mention. One is Hayward 5 miles east of Covington in Eastern Garfield County. There use to be a thriving town and a school there, a high school until 1958 I have playewd basket ball there. Another is Salt Fork, Oklahoma between Hunter (Garfield County) and Lamont ( S.E. Grant County) There used to be a town there but all is gone now. You might want to feature them on your map of ghost towns. Philip Moseley Guthrie,Oklahoma I noticed on “Ghost Towns” that there are two towns you didn’t mention.

I do not know what qualifies as a ghost town, but I can guarantee you that Witcher was nowhere to be found and Hale was essentially some rednecks side yard.. did I mention they probably had guns as they ran outside to see what their dogs were barking at? (me) Although, if you pass Haile St (which is pretty much a driveway) and turn right on the next street there is an abandoned school bus and creepy shed. But you have to drive through an overgrown road. I do not recommend if you do not want your car to be scratched. My question is, when was the last time this was updated?
