Hattie Clifford McGhee Bell is 90, born April 20, 1884 near Martinsville, Va. She was nine when the Irish McGhees came west to Texas where they lived eight years before locating at Chickasha, Indian Territory in 1901.

She was valedictorian of her Chickasha high school class in 1905.

She visited friends at the new town of Carnegie where she met and married Melvin L. Bell in 1906.

They first farmed on Gawkey Creek but soon bought the home place 6 1/2 miles southeast of Carnegie. She has lived in town the past few years, but hops in and goes out to the farm every time the car starts. She wanted to go to the Carnegie rodeo or any place where the action is.
