“…saying something about one of the best friends I ever had in my life. For over twenty years I have had teh privilge of serving brother Eli Anderson as a banker and during all this time I haver never doubted his word and not once have I questioned his judgment. You know most all of our old pioneer stock has just about been exhausted, but here has never been a truer pioneer than brother Eli.”
“…the poets have written:
Men of high and good intent
Are not produced by accident.
Its by desire and by design
and not by chance that men grow fine.”
Also mentioned in p. 13 of the his history regarding The Flying ‘A’ Ranch in Strevell, ID.: “They (Eli and Ella) worked hard, believing it was the future for their family.”
-I believe they were (and are still) right. (BKA, 2007)
