Scope and content
Herbert W. Johnson and his wife Eleanor, while visiting relatives near Fort Peak, Montana, discovered a fossil bed with bones of several dinosaurs. Geologists are working to uncover a second dinosaur located because of Johnson's find. They will have to move fast as the location will soon be under water when the Fort Peck Dam is completed. The bone held by Mr. Johnson is one of several which protruded from the skull of the dinosaur and were used for fighting. (T.Times 2/1/1938, p.2).
