- Excerpts from Anna... Letters in the Attic, written by Sally Anne Dare:
“Laurence's father was Arthur Newman Dare who had combined two local newspapers about 1880 into the Sherburne County Star News. He was its first editor and publisher. Laurence became the second, and his son Charles Fournier Dare, my husband, was the third.
In the attic of our home on Main Street [Elk River Minnesota], which Arthur was building in 1880, I have learned far more about the ancestry of my husband and our daughter, Jenny Sue, than all the facts told me by the family to date. In one of hundreds of letters to May Dare, saved in the attic before 1900, is mentioned the family's private nickname for the Star News: it was known as the GFJ, or the "Great Family Journal."
I also learned the reference to the house they built and in which we now live as "The Dare Mansion". I hadn't realized that while Arthur worked in the state capitol between 1903 and 1907, the Dares had moved to St. Paul when Arthur (or AND) was State Printer after representing Sherburne County for three terms in the state legislature, the last as speaker, the three St. Paul residences were therefore known as "The Dare Mansion," in their turn.”
