Montana
A view from 1939:
HYSHAM, (2,667 alt., 258 pop.), seat of Treasure
County, was named for Charles Hysham, owner of the Flying
E brand, whose cattle range extended more than 70 miles across
the county.
Large fossil beds lie on both sides of the river here. Moss agates found in
the vicinity are for sale in the town.
