"Position of prominence as well as family of distinction may well be claimed with especial merit by Jesse P. Rich, the young county attorney of Bear Lake county. His father, William L. Rich, is very well known in this locality as well as others throughout the West. Of California birth and of residence since 1864 in the state of Idaho, William Rich has become an eminent agricultural citizen, politician and churchman. He has also been very well known in his capacity of state senator, having held office in that highest state body for two terms. For several terms he served as mayor of Paris; he is a member of the board of regents of Fielding Academy, and he is first counsellor to Bear Lake, Utah. William L. Rich married in Salt Lake City Miss Ella Pomeroy. In that same city was born to them on April 8, 1883, the son who has become so well known as Jesse P. Rich".
