N. S. McKINSEY.—The editor of the Advocate was born in Downieville, California,
in 1855. He received a business education, and learned the art of telegraphy. He
made his first appearance in Lassen county in 1877, having charge of the
construction of the first line of telegraph to this county. After its
completion, he remained in charge of the Susanville office one year. He then
went into the newspaper business in Modoc county, in which he is now engaged
with D. C. Slater. In 1881 they purchased the Lassen Advocate, since which time
Mr. McKinsey has lived in Susanville, and occupied the position of editor and
manager of that paper. He was married December 23, 1879, to Miss Louisa B.
Slater, born in Janesville, in this county, September 29, 1861.
