About the Brinkley Argus -
I need to say a few things about this section. Although the Brinkley Argus is older than
1896, there are no existing copies before that year. Also, newspapers from Nov. 31, 1898 -
Feb. 9, 1906 are missing - at least according to the Arkansas History Commission.
The information in this section is from 1896-1898 and 1906-1912.
