Rogers Calaboose (05-12-15)

One of my informants is Jack Brooks from the Taylor, Texas area.  He follows the website and has shared information in the past.  Today, he was in the Taylor library an he stumbled upon an interesting article about the town of Rogers, Texas in Bell County).  This is just the kind of information that I hope to find.  A first-hand account of a calaboose in 1930.  I found it to be most interesting and says something that Rhonda and I said when we first saw the little calaboose in Gause, Texas.  “Cold as Amarillo in the winter and hot as blazes in the summer.”
