He found an old attic filled with historical treasures and met the little lady who has guarded the attic's secrets for more than half a century. Minerva Proctor, proprietress of the quaint Antimony Hotel (Garfield County) invited Dr. Cooley into her rural hotel- boarding house attic and together they examined its con tents. Diary of 1871 Foremost in Cooley's discovery was a diary dated 1871 written by a Doctor W. Schock who migrated west to prospect for gold. Also included in the attic cache j were brochures, letters and books concerning the Socialist Party in Utah, plus medical and law books belonging to "Doc" Schock" as he later became known. Mrs. Proctor was raised in the old hotel and as a young girl watched while a great-uncla partner and close friend of Doc Schock, stored his records in the old attic. Schock's diary, described his trip west as a young man who on July 12 proudly wrote: "Able to bite my mustache." The Schock mustache became a permanent part of his makeup.
