30yr Old MD Find Gets Returned


"A piece of Mason City history has been returned after being found more than 30 years ago in southern Iowa.

R.J. Piatt of Glenwood, Mo., found a police commissioner lapel pin belonging to a Mason City man named S.A. Koch while prospecting with a metal detector at a home in Ottumwa sometime in the late 1970s or early 1980s.

Historical documents list Koch as a Mason City councilman in 1919-21."
