Benjamin E. Dobson and wife were one of the earliest settlors in the county. He kept a store in Deloit in the town’s early history, where the Robertson Studio now stands, and lived in the house on the next corner east, now the Cose property. There are many old friends here that kindly remember them. Her husband and four children are left to mourn her loss.
