Emmett Shelton, Sr, (1905-2000) tells of the challenges and reward in the sale of Mt. Stroder, more commonly known as Putnam's Hill. Prof. Mckorkell, from UT bought the tract for $3,000 in 1949. Emmett tells first-hand tales of building the Lakeshore Addition for access to the lake. Ike Young's still had been operating on the lake and a revenue agent had been killed. It is home to Little Bee Springs where Ben Thompson would hide. Lots of history...
The times, they are a changing!!!!
