Lakeview, the county seat is also not "large" -- seems it has a 
population of around 3,000.  One goes to Bend or Klamath Falls for 
anything more than just "groceries, nails, and gunpowder" -- Bend or 
Medford for serious medical attention. If one is suddenly desperate, and 
know who to ask though, folks will find what one needs in their 
cupboards, woodshed, or pump house -- but then you have to reciprocate 
likewise.

Basically, everyone in Paisley knows everyone else personally.

The post office will deliver mail to my cousin Jessie, simply addressed 
to "Jessie, Paisley, OR".

And that is about the size of it.  Another reason this Frank Elder is 
such a mystery ...
