At 30 second mark the pic of the Old City Hall. It shows a giant wall behind it. What was the purpose of this wall?

The music is a bit too loud it overs the narration nonetheless I'm proud of my hometown of Wichita

Nice slideshow, but the choice of background music was VERY distracting and made it hard to focus on the narration. Some gentle piano music, like what's played in the background of the Ken Burns documentaries, would have been much more effective!

Catherine McCarty, then a widow, was the only woman to sign the Petition to incorporate Wichita in 1870. She ran the City Laundry operation and was also a landowner. She is not recognized as she should be, sadly. Having contracted "consumption," she moved further west for her health, with fellow petition signatory William H. Antrim whom she married in 1873. She died in Silver City, New Mexico in 1874. Had she remained healthy, I suspect she would have remained and become one of the well known pioneers of Wichita. Her two sons, Henry McCarty and Joseph McCarty, were fostered around following her death, though by then they were using their step father's name, Antrim. Joseph Antrim lived a gambler's life until 1930, while Henry went to Arizona before returning to New Mexico, just in time to become tangled in the Lincoln County War. Young Henry was going by the name William H. Bonney by then, but due to his youth and slight build he was often referred to as Kid, or "the Kid." It was only due to an unfriendly newspaper editor that he was dubbed as "Billy the Kid," a few months before he died. Wichita pioneer Catherine McCarty's oldest son became the most wanted man in New Mexico before he turned 21, a milestone he was likely still shy of when killed in Fort Sumner by Pat Garrett in July of 1881.

I always liked that Purina building downtown maybe central street. Looked like it had some age to it. Also the fife and drum restaurant was kind of a neat building. That gas station they showed was kind of neat. But before I was born. I think Salina had one like that when I was a kid was in the movie up the academy. And I've been trying to locate pictures of it.

The cost if living is descent. There are run down area, like ghettos you know not to go to. The good jobs went out and so for some people you need to work 2 jobs. I have learned there's things to do, you just have to look. Museums, Keeper of the Plains, Cow town, and restaurants galore. Anything you want. We have all kinds of shopping. A zoo. Spice Merchant for the people who love to experiment with all sorts of cooking. We really do have it all, but people have become quite cold, since CV.

I was born in Wesley hospital. Lived in Wichita until 8th grade. I did see an awful lot of racism in Wichita. Richard LA munyon that police chief seemed to be awfully racist. And the way that canal route was elevated over that part of town reeked of racism. I did also see a lot of dogmatic narrow mindedness where people wouldn't admit where problems like that existed.
