To me, there's almost nothing more interesting than reading old news stories, learning about historical occurrences from (often biased) journalists who recorded it as it was related to them. The stories in this exhibit come from vintage local newspapers I have acquired over the past five years. Most of the articles presented here are specifically about Walla Walla, but several stories about other areas were too historically significant (or entertaining) to exclude.
