The Google News Archive doesn't have copies of the 1914 papers, but you could contact Sharon Sanders at The Missourian to see if they are available locally. Good luck. Bob,

I am going thru old photos and have one of my grandmother. On the edge of the card board "frame" there is what I think is kind of a seal that says 1914 and handwritten next to the "seal" it says I think Murillo or maybe murrillo. I tried to find a photgrapher named Murillo in the Cape area but so far didn't try St. Louis. Do you know of or where to look up this Murillo. My grandmother graduated from what was the Normal School in Cape in 1909. She is the daughter of the Robert Taylor that was in the picture I sent you before of all the people standing in front of the school house. Bob Reese Dear Ken,

Yes, like many others, my brother, mother and I were subjects of his camera lens. The photo was taken for a feature that shared one of my mother's recipes in a Marquette Cement Company publication.

All of Frony's 4x5 negatives have been scanned by an intern (wow, I wish I could find one of those). 2. Fred's vehicle for introducing Frony's photos to a new audience is his blog, <a href="http://www.semissourian.com/blogs/flynch" rel="nofollow">F8 and Be There</a> in The Southeast Missourian. It's worth signing up for the RSS feed so you don't miss any. [Editor's note: the name of Fred's blog is taken from the classic answer a photographer gave when asked he managed to take a spectacular spot news photo: "F/8 and be there."] "With help from our librarian, Sharon Sanders, I am presenting a historical look at Cape Girardeau through Frony's lens. I have begun with buildings from the 40s and 50s which no longer exist. Any news stories or historical information is included in the blogs," Fred wrote. I'm glad to see The Missourian is actively preserving the community's history by digitizing the work of someone who documented the big and little stores of Southeast Missouri for more than half a century.
