Altho I grew up in Reno, I didn't know there was a Mizpah there either.
When my son told me the story, I guess I just automatically switched to
Tonopah. I was in Tonopah the week before so maybe it wasn't so strange.
Sorry for the miss info. And altho the story is sad no matter where it
happened, I'm still relieved it was in Tonopah.

You are right, I looked at the article. I wasn't aware of a 2nd Mizpah.
Thank you.
