Towns that never had a post office usually did not survive for long. Such is the brief history of Telegraph. A silver lode called the Tecumseh give rise to a tiny village of log cabins that housed no more than a hundred persons. Despite the confidence of a brilliant future, the Tecumseh closed down within a year and so did the town leaving hardly a trace.Courtesy Henry Chenoweth.
