Apparently the original family name was ISENMENGER. It was shortened when a civil war recruiting officer told Estelle's grandfather that the name was too long. (Estelle ISE was the wife of Admiral Felix GYGAX of Twin Creek.) �93 Letter from Kansas Published iin The Kansas Herald.of.Freedom~- An Independent Week~y Newspaper DevQlte'(fto Freedom, and the Interests of the Kansas TerrItory, by G.W.• Brown & Co., Wakarusa, Kansas Territory. Number 1, Volume 1, Saturday, Octo,ber 21, 1854. Since the publication of my former letters: in the E:a:. I have rec'ei ved hundreds of letters from al1~' parts of the country, enquIrl,ng about Kansas. Although wishing to impart all the information i'n my power', yet were I to devo,te all my time to' letter wri ting, one half at least would go unanswered. A few put me under personal obligations so that I am at least obliged to wd te to them., Others who letters may be unanswered win from thi s learn the reason why. One wants to know '-if the lands here are subject to p:eemption""? another "'if we get them for nothing or have to pay twenty-fIve cents an acre:, the cost of survey", etc.--Things'that are known all over the States weeks befo,re we can possibly' know them here, as we are fifty miles,: in Indian country, and the same distance from Westport, Missouri,our nearest postoffice. Another wants to know t·\'lhat kind of winters we have here, and what kind of summers?"' forgetting that I am Just from Ohio, and have no't resided in Kansas, yet three' weeks:. Another wants to know ''-i'f we have the ague here, and if so'o whether as bad as in I1linois?n;"-a place I never set foot upon--and so on ad infinJ:tum. But hundreds of questions are asked, and so far as 1 possibly can,;"I wish to give one general answer. The lands purchased' of the Indians embrace nearly fifteen millions of acres; of this, all except about eight hundred acres belonging to the Weas, south of the Kansas river and Iowas, north of said river, are subject to pre-emption. As to the Homestead bill, we know nothi'ng of it here, whether passed: or not, or whether it would apply to the Kans'as rands or not., I think the Shawnee lands, south of the Kansas river will be the first settled;: they appear to be settling fastest between the Kansas and Wakarusa rivers, on the California road. To reach here, a person coming by the Missouri river should 11and at Kansas, cross the Shawnee Reserve', thirty miles' to Wakarusa ferry and you come to' the promised land. As to holding claims here, I refer the reader' to theConsti tution of the' Mutual Settlers t, Association, which of course you will publish. These laws will be respected, and justice adminfstered here as peac,eably as iin the States. Claims: are, however, frequently sold by settlers. l' think this Terri tory is well watered';; springs exist in abundance'; prairie could not be richer;, timber may be scarce in places, yet limestone' and coal exist in abundance. IOuI' tiinber consis·ts principally of walnut, oak, cotton-\'lood, blue ash, etc'. SOil of all kinds, from clay loam to' rich, sandy' soil;; good clay, for brick or potter's ware, can be found. I am at: least five hundred feet above the Kansas river, and only three! mnes fl'om; 1:t, on the richest of soil. A pleasant breeze greets us from the so'uthwest; to inhale a draught of it is alinost equal to a drink of water. I am satisfied,that the country must be healthy, much more so than iin Ohio.--Possibly some may have the ague, along the river, or other streams on the low lands. I think no' difficul ty would be experienced iit securing a location for 8' tt>colony of any size", where water, timber and stone exist sufficient for all purposes; yet to secure a place now, emigrants wou'l'd have to go farther west. The Kansas river i:s nearly as large as the Mi;ssouri. Steambo'ats' �94 have been up one hundred and seventy-five miles, to Fort Riley, and I think with small boats it may' run that high the year around. There are good water pri v~leges in the Terri tory~ Horses, oxen, cows, an~ in fact, all kinds of stock are high-':'cows from $25 to $40; oxen, from $75 to $100 per yo'ke; good horses, from $100 to $1:50 per head. An ·kinds of furniture high--at least one'-thfrd higher than fin Ohio. Bacon $fe, per lb. Flour, $3'.50 per 100 lbs. Store goods a shade higher than in Ohio.' I speak o'f the Kansas market in Missouri. No,twi thstanding the threats and browr!:':beati'ng of the Missourians,. the greatest propo,rtion of the settlers here as' Northern peopre--nine-te'~i'trhs' of the balance honest SOutherners:, who are coming as they say, to get rid of s1'avery. 1 was much mi'staken in the character of the Missouri ans'., A few fanatics, who were: resolved to ext'end slavery' at an hazard's', seem: fo·r the time being to give tone to the whole peopre;' but a oetteracquaintance' convinces'me that the majori ty of the people condemned the violent resolu'tions p'assed at W¢s'tport and other places. But the die is c'ast., Westport wnl be another ALT~~. B'iI.'ood 1's in her heart.. Hundreds wtn shun here;: and Kansas" only' four miles further', wiTl reap the frui'ts' of he'r' ,'treason. nOo you a,app,rehend any serious difficulty with slaveholders?" is frequently asked •. 1 answer, no, although they have boasted and threatened much, ill. thev .. .m.~!!.Ql, fools, and well Rnow the shedding of Northern blood! to sustain sravery here, would end only with slavery itself.. Northern men need not fear.;' a1'1 they' have to do i;s to be true to themselves, and not coward-like', knucfde to the demands~ of these sl aveholders~. and padlock their lips;, and tt-wai t til: the proper time t'o meet this' question"'.. Now is the proper ti'me--now'i"s the time that the sliaveholders are movingneaven and earth to establish slavery here;: and now is the tiine,. like men, we should meet them, and not Hke cowards', cry', "Hush, be quiet', don It agi'tate' the questiion ~; wai t ti 1 we are stronger .. ',IIOne explanati:on is necessary here;, in speaking of missions" in my llast ]} did not make the proper distinction., My remarks' were true as to Johnson's mission;; but since I have become acquainted with Or~ Stin, a true man, who also h~s a mission here~ One word to newspapers which copy my articles·... Do not put words into my mouth which I never utter.. Copy exact from the' ERA, or not at aH. Much i,njusti'ce was; done me by a former artic'le by a' portion of the eastern: press'. Besides, those who copy my' sayings' wiill db me a favor' by' complYing with the' m~ourtesies of the press.~ One word to emigrants •. Those who have money can do welil here.. lands which can be got for nothing now, by paying a year' hence Government price, I honestly thfnk in two years: wi':!'l be worth $25: to $30' an acre. No new country ever settled one-fifti·eth part as fast as Kansas is now settlfng. Emi~rants; arri ving in scores;' tents are stret'ched al:l over the prairies;; cablns ..are going up f? alil directfons., Labor iiS plenty •. A" man, though ?oor, 1f he c'an and Wlll work, Can do well! here'. A'man with only a teami is: lndependent.. BUt to those who have no' means, can tt nor won't work, Kansas fs no place for you., Emigrants must expect to meet some hard'ships'~.. We' �95 have no ffne houses to receive you in;: everything is i'nconvenil,ent yet;; settlers are generally of be right kind, with pioneer hearts. SOciety: i;s good;; we are all sociable and accommodating, and the person who now has the wBl, and meets these difficulties" and gets' hi's cho,ice of the lands;, wim never regret it. Where rin Ohio todayl, with my knowledge of Kansas" I should lose no time coming back here', pitching my- tent" bui'ldfng a cabin,. and preparing for living •. Understand me, I urge nO' one to come; fo'r, as in ciH?new countries', many- chicken-hearted ones wil'l get homesick and leave. But if you have made up your mind, and are coming, now i~ the time.

Hancock. ,Margaretta Hancock, sworn, sqs: That she is thevife of petitioner~ and that in the years 185S aDd 1856 we were living on our claim two and • half miles from Lecompton. He was from Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, and a free~tate man~ and not in good odor with the people of Lecompton on account of his political opinions. In the year 18SS~ during the Wakarusa war, Mr. Hancock came to'Lawrence to save his 11fe~ and help~ while protecting himself, to protect others. While he was gone~ some men'from Lecompton came and threw do~ our fences, arid the cattle got in and destroyed our corn. There were nine or ten &cresin corn; it was sod corn. Mr. Hanrock had gathered a little of the corn to teed with before he came down to Lawrence; the rest destroyed. It was pretty good sod corn. This was all we lost of much value during that year. In the month of August or September, 1856, while lI\V' husband was absent-, having ned to save his 11£e-a company ot men, calling thanselves Kickapoo Rangers, about fUty in number, came to our house. It was Sundq morning. They were commanded bY one John Randolph. He paraded his men before the house, ordered ~e men to go in :and search the house, and take what they could t1nd tor the use of the southern &rnG"~ The men entered the bouse from both sides, began swearing, saying we had a store for the abolitionists at Lawrence,but they would not get it. Then they commenced plundering; some in one room; some in the other; some up stairs, turning over the beds"taldng the blankets, swearing they were too good tor abolitionists; inquired for Mr. Hancock; swore if they had him they would kill him. They took coffee, sugar~ crackers" meat, harness--several sets, &:0. They took all rrI3' provisions. I expostulated with them; told them they were gentlemen' to take all I had to eat, my husband being gone, and I having tll> little ones to attend to. MJ'. Lamb then took a piece of meat, some dried fruit, and a washpan full of coffee, and gave them to me. Captain Randolph got mad, ordered Hr. Lamb to leave ~s COlUp8l\Y, as his conduct was a disgrace to it; that he was a coward and a traitor: to his compq-. Lamb said he would not see a woman hungry. Pistols were drawn by' ~lph, who said the next thing taken out of the wagon he would shoot the man who did it.Lamb wanted to leave a sack of flower, but was compelled to give it up. Randolph made a speech, s~, among other things, he would go over with his things to I Lecompton, and come back again. They broke and destroyed evvr,ything they could lq their hands on that tbq did not carry 81tltq. That afternoon about 300 men came on h~rseback, accompanied by some wagonsJ picked up what they wanted, throwed down the fence; drove and rode through the cornfield, aet fire to the house three times, but it was put out. The barn and its contents they burnt down. There were in it ploughs, and chests of tools and ever;ytb.ing necessar:v to carry on a farm. B,etween the two visits on that dq I had obtained a guard from Colonel Cooke, and had ~ a few light things into the wagon. The last ~ who came even tried to rob the. wagon of the few th1ngs it contained, but were auccesstulq resisted by the I guard. . Myself and mother came back to the house atter the barn was burned, and~ waiting till dark, hid some things by oovering them up in the garden, wt they were all stolen, and broken up. The items in the house and barn, as .at down in the petition, were Q'llafried destroyed, or burned up at that time, except the items tor .poons. There -sq,: �33 were t_lve large spoons" silv8l'"worth 136" and 12 small ODeS, worth $lOJ these vere carried 11/I6tq. The pre.ems were lIOrth $1 per gallon. .Ten acres of corn and over were destroyed at the same time" the fence being thrown down. What they did DOt pack off, the c sttl. and hoga destroyed. An acre of potatoe a was also dug up and destroyed. Three horses were taken off. When Mr. Hancock Ca11l8 into the Territo1'1' he brought twenty-tive vagon loads of goods, such as 18 set out in hill petition" and two loads afterwards. her Margaretta: Hancock -I- mark Witness: Samuel A. ~an Sworn to before me April 29, 18,9 ------ Samuel A. ~an In the matter of the petition of Henry Eggert.

Hancock. Margaretta Hancock, sworn, says: That she is the wife of petitioner~ and that in the years, 1855 and 1856 we were living 'on our claim two and a;-half miles; from Lecompton. He was, from Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, and a free-5tate man~ and not in good odor with the people of Lecompton on accoWlt of his political opinions. In the ye~ 1855~ duririg the Wakarusa war~ Mr. Hancock came to Lawrence to save his l.1fe~ and help, while protecting himself, to protect others. 'While he was gone~ some me~ from Lecompton came and threw do~ our fences~ arid the cattle got in and destroyed our corn. The're were niri~ or ten 'acres in corn;' it was sod corn. Mr. Hanrock had gathered a little of the corn to feed with before he came down to Lawrence ;:the rest destroyed. It was pretty good sod corn. This was all we lost of much'./value during that year. . . , In the" month, of August or September, 1856, while Il\Y husband was absent-having fled to save his life~-a company of men, calling themselves Kickapoo Rangers ~ about fifty irl nUIllber, came to our house. It was SWl~ morning. They were commanded by one John Randolph~ He paraded his men before the house~ ordered !¥he men to go in and search the house, and take what they could find for the use of the southern artl\Y. The men entered the house from both sides, began swearing, s¢ng we had. ',', a store for the abolitionists at LaWrence,but they would not get it. Then they commenced plundering; some in one room;' some in the other; some up stairs, turning over the beds ~ taking the blankets, swearing they were too good for abolitionists; inquired for Mr. ~ancock;: swore if'they had him they would kill him. They took coffee, sugar~ crackers~ meat~ harness--several sets, &c. 'They took all my provisions. I expostulated with them; told them they were gentlemen to take all I had to eat, my husband being gone, and I having tu> little ones to attend to. M". Lamb then took a piece of meat,some dried fruit, and a washpan full of coffee, and gave them to me. Captain Randolph got mad, ordered Mr. Lamb to leave ,his compan;r, as' his conduct was' a aisgrace to it,;; that he was a' coward and a: trait OJ;" to his company. Lamb said he would not see a, woman hungry. Pistols were, drawn by Randolph, :who said the next thing taken out of the wagon he 'WOUld shoot' the man wo did it.Lamb wanted to leave a sack of flower, but was compelled to give it up. Randolph made a speech, saying~ among other things, he would go over with his thingstti Lecompton~ and come back again. They broke and destroyed everything they could lq their hands on that they, did not carry awa:y. That afternoon about 300 men came on horseback, accompariied by some wagonsJ: picked up what they wanted, throwed do~ the :fence; drove and rode through the cornf:l.eld~ set fire to the house three times~ lnl:t it was put out. The barn and its contents they burnt down. There were in it ploughs and chests of tools and ever,ything necessar,y to car.r,y on a farm. Between the two visits on that dq I had. obtained a guard from Colonel Cooke, and had thrown a few light things into >the wagon. The last body who came even tried to rob the wagon of the few things it contained, but were suceessful~ resisted by the guard.' . , Myself and mother came back to the hoUse atter' the barn was burned,' and, waiting t~ll dark, hid some things by covering them up in the garden, but they were all stolen and broken up. , '~he items in the house and barn, as set down in the petition~ were ~t:~a6-, ried aw:q~ destroyed~ or burned up at that time, except the items for ,8POOns~ Thera ... ~, " ' (,':~: �33 were twelve large spoons, silver,worth $36, and 12 small ones, worth $10; these were carried 81tlay. The preserves: were worth $1 per gallon. ,Ten acres, of corn and over were destroyed at the same time, the fence being thrown down. What they did not pack off, the cattle and hogs destroyed. .An acre of potatoes was also dug up and destroyed. Three horses were taken off. When Mr. Hancock came into the Territory he brought twenty-five wagon loads of goodS, such as is set out in his petition, and two 10~rafterwards;. Margaretta; -I- Hancock mark Witness: Samuel A.

Eagle-Beacon Anybo~y, �Presidents'! Letter As I 'write this message Thanksgiving has just passed and Christmas, will soon be upon us. How many of you have taken a few minutes to contemplate what our ancestors did on their holida.vs back in Lancaster, Pa., Pitt sylvania County, Va., Peoria, Ill., Oneida, N. y~, a' sod house in Nebraska, England, Holland, or a 'million other localitiest No doubt some were living in relative luxury with warm homes, plenty of food to eat and friends to share the pleasures;. otherS with below average material blessings, probab~ with large families to feed and house spent the d~ with relatives and thanked their Maker for what they had. Another group m~ have just arrived in a strange country with very littl~ money, sickness, and a foreign language to learn. Most of us can consider ourselves among the fortunate compared to the life them. We have about 41 members at present. Many are long time members and some have been bitten by the "Genie Bugll recently. Did you know there are several stages of the "Genie Disease ll ?' First, there is a little interest, it turns into a hobby; and then continues into a full time vocation. In the latter stages, genealogy becomes an obsession and is considered incurable. Many never get to what I consider the best part of genealogy--helping others. We constant~ write for help to far away places and expect answers or read material someone has sp~nt countless hours gathering and printing. I encourage more of our friends and members to be the"unselfish experts from Douglas County.1I Your executive cOlTllTlittee is working on plans for a workshop in the spring. Hopefully we can announce details of date, location, and program soon. Your president, Items: for Sale by the D. C. G. S. Back issues of "THE, PIONEER.

This is the practice among the society of Friends, and were it generally adopted, it would have many advantages. We should know at once, on seeing a lady's name, whether she was married or single, and if the former, what the name of her family was. And it iS'further to' be considered that the adoption of this rule of but a single first'name for girls would put an end forever to be whole brood of Emma Mevalindas and Euphemia Helen Lauras, and a style of nomenclature which is thoug~t by most persons to be ridiculous in the extreme. �--...... -- 51 - FROM RURA.1..

Make that Robert's Rules. : Some people rebel against rules;, parliamentary tactics put others to sleep; Evans scoffs. . "E~ewone has to go to meetings," he s,ays. "You go to Pl'A, a union meeting, even the Garden Club. You wouldn't play poker without knol-ling the hands and you shouldn't go to a meeting without knowing the rules." E,vans is touring the countrY' to tout a new13 revised edition of Robert's Rules of Order. He helped the Robert family--descendants of the original author--with the first overhaul of 'the manual in a decade. More than three million copies are in print. The rules' are used by virtually every goveriimeilt bod;y and deliberative assemb13 in America. Evans' stop in Massachusetts was' 'appropriate. It was, after all, in New Bedford that Henry Martyn Robert, an Army engineering officer, developed the original rules. ' , Legend has it that Robert, sent to southeastern Massachusetts by the Army in 1863 to recover from tropical fever, was, presiding over a church meeting and being battered by bombast he couldn't control. ; Robert resolved to stud;y parliamentary law and eventual13 developed his own rules based on guidelines set down by Thomas Jefferson in 1800 and refinad later by Luther BUShing, clerk of the Massachusetts House of Rep~sentatives, in 1844. Henry Robert published the rules with his own money in 1876;: no publisher would take the risk. A few of the Original manuals still exist. "Rules ~ what democracy is about," says E:vans, who was; the parlia-, mentarian for the Republican National Convention in 1968 and has been the power behind those who preside at a variety of national union meetings. " Robert· s original guidelines haven't, changed: Abide by the will of the m~ority; listen to the minority; consider one issue at a time;; give everyo:qe a chance to talk, and assure that the discussion is impersonal. --Full credit given to Dan Perkes" Assistant General Manager, Associated Press, APN-Wide World Photos and author of article,Dick Brand.

In 1946 the two streams of history merged into one to become The Evangelical United Brethren Church. THE UNITED BRETHREN CHURCH LaWrence, Kans as 1854-1946 Lawrence probably can claim the first permanent, continuous United arethren organization in the state of Kansas, altho' this WaBi a much discussed point for many years'. , A man whose name was Terrel, preached in Fort Scott and organized a', class there sometime during the year 1853. The group seems to have dis,banded during the Civil War Years. There was no mention of Fort Scott in the Conference notes until 1890 when a new group, was formed. In a letter to the "Religious Telescopell (official U. B. church paper) Josiah Terrel wrote, "I am glad that the Board of Missions has s,ent a missionary to Kansas. 1I He had reference to S. S. Snyder, the first regularly appointed missionary to the Kansas Mission. (He was the man for whom our local church w.as named.) Mr. Snyder was appointed by the Home Frontier and Foreign Missionary Society in June, 1854 and arrived in Kansas in October of that same year. He brought his family to Lawrence, a, community of about 600 persons; and staked out a claim near the edge of the settlement. He attended the first Hissour.L Conference which was held in Jasper County, Missouri at Short Creek Schoolhouse in November, 1854. It was here that the first United Brethren minister (S. S. Sn~der) met the first missionary to Kansas (Mr. Josiah Terrel). Rev. Snyder held services in a plank shanty located near the place 'Where the Granada Theater now s t a n d s . ' When it was learned that the Kansas Pacific Railroad would come through Lawrence on the north side of the Kaw River, the church fathers d~cided that Lawrence would make its growth north of the river, therefore they erected their second church there near-Bismarck Grove. ' Later a third was built at Fourth' and Locust Streets in North Lawrence. This building was used until 1914. : , William A. Cardwell, from the Indiana Conference, came to the Kansas Territory in l855-to work with S. S. Snyder. He (Cardwell) wrote on ARril 30, 1855 that he had a list of donations totalling $131.00 to be used in building a church in Lawrence, but that the building wasn't com- �90 c .. pleted until 1867. This reference must have been to the second meeting place, the one at Bismarck Grove. However, Mr. Cardwell went to Big Springs, west of Lawrence, where he organized -a: class, and succeeded in building a church late 'in the year 1856. This building at Big Springs; was the first church to b~ ,built for the United Brethren in the State of Kansas •. The Rev. S'. S. SI'l1der was the first man killed by the Quantrill Raiders in their 'attack on Lawrence. He had been commissioned a. Lieutenant of the Colored Troops in this area. This fact, combined with his preaching and his anti-slaver,y views prompted the raiders to seek him out and to murder him as 'they entered Lawrence on August 19, 1863. The first United Brethren Church building erected in Lawrence was named for this martyr--IIThe S. S. SI'l1der Memorialll '. At the time of his death the group was meeting in a hut at about the present site of the Granada Theatre, referred to earlier. ' . The Kansas Mission Conference of the Church of the United Brethren ~ Christ was' organized in October 30, 1857, with the Rev. S. S. SI'I1der as presiding elder. At a meeting of the Kansas Conference in April, 1867, it was reported that the church building at Lawrence was almost completed. The sixteenth Convention of the Conference was held in the new bUilding in 1871. Ver,y early in the period when settlers were coming to Lawrence, the Friends (Qu~ers) erected a very large native stone building on the land now occupied by the city baseball park at 11th and Delaware. The main purpose of this building was for their Conventions and Conferences so it was of necessity quite roomy. 'It is thought that, for a time before a permanent building was erected, the United Brethren used this building for their Church Services~ In the year 1914 anew brick building was completed at the corner of 17th and Vermont Streets. liThe S·. S. Snyder Memorial Churcn ll as it was known was dedicated October 3, 1915 at a cost of $15,000.00. This blP-lding burned on February 8, 1936. The Journal World for Februar,y 10, 1936 states that the building and its~:contents were a total loss, the firefighters being hampered by sub-zero temperatures. The Rev. C. L~ Huffman was pastor of' the church when the bw.:ldSmg burned, the Rev. C. L. Heatherington had just oompleted-'7 years of service in the Lawrence territor,y the previous December (1935) and the Rev. Arthur Ward arrived sometime in 1936 to serve 6 years with this congregation. With the arrival of Mr. Ward plans were made to erect a fine, new L-shaped building of native stone.· He spent long hours in pliiy'sical labor in the construction and building of the ba.sement for this proposed church, also, in his six years of service a substantial sum of money was raised to use in the building of the new structure. Because o~ many difficulties his dream of completing the super-structure was never realized. In 1942 he was assigned a charge near \vinfield;: Lawrence Deever succeeded him at Lawrence. By this ti..'1le the congregation had dwindled to a rilen "handful," and there was talk of merging. The official merger with the Evangelical Church began in March of 1946. With the uniting of the two denominations the Lawrence Church then became mown as the Evangelical-United Brethren Church. The work of the Kingdom moved forward. The be3utiful new church at 1501 Massachusetts was dedica~ . .' "ted in 1948 and has continued to move forward to a present membership of " ..,.... - -.' '.,'j �9i", 301. The basement structure was sold to the Immanuel Lutheran Church in 1948. PASTORS OF THE: UNITED BRE.THRBN CHURCH 1890- C. M. Hymes; 1911-lQ'-F. H. Testerman 1891- J. L. Oakes 1917-18- N. H.

THE EVANGELICAL CHURCH Lawrence, Kansas 1857-1946 Franklin, E;udora, Clearfield Circuit, 1857 Evangelical United Brethren Church 1946-1959 The Evangelical United Brethren Church is the oldest American born denomination. It was not the first denomination on Americal soil for other churches preceded it, having come here from Europe. It is not a sp:l,it off of any other church but was the result of a need and the meeting of that need. German speaking people emigrated to this continent, settled in Maryland and Pennsylvania'. There were no churches, no pastors, but men filled w1th;:)the Spirit from German Reform, Mennonite, Presbyterian, Lutheran, and Methodist denominations began bringing the word of God to early settlers. Our church is not an "ismll or a tarigent organization. It is sound, stable, and founded upon the fundamental doctrines of Christianity. , In 1804 Jacob Albright of Pennsylvania founded this organization especially' for the Gennan speaking people of Pennsylvania. The DiSCipline was very similar to that of the Methodist Church. We are indebted to the early ministers of Kansas for the history of our' church at this time, but they were History Nakai's and not History Writers. Appeals were made to the Eastern Conferences through the Evangelical Hessengerll and "Der Christ1iche Botschafter". The general mis~ sionary society made no provision for this type of work, the Conference had ,to make the provision and some, conferences were not interested in moving ;West. The Illinois conference was very sympathetic to the calls but -:.t~~~ so the reply was oi'ten,"no funds, no available men." ; .. �92 , Bishop Long was. very instrumental in getting a change in the Mission- ary Society so that funds would be available for this work in the West. Kansas was organized as a territory in 1854. The Government offered very liberal Homeste ad Laws, hence many Evangelicals emigrated to Kansas, took up homesteads, built homes, mostly of log or sod, tilled the soil,but there were no churches of their choice in which to worship. . As early of 1851 and 1858, Joseph Ettinger of Leavenworth and James Epley of Old Franklin (3:,miles S. E. of Lawrence) "Irate letters to the ItEvangelical Messenger" and "Der Christliche Botschafter" (church papers) to assist in publicizing the appeal for man to preach the gospel. This bore fruit, for July 4, 1858 George Fleisher arrived at Old Franklin and J. F. Shreiber in Nebraska. . Classes were established at Franklin, Eudora, Clearfield, Owl Creek, and near Humboldt, in fact our first church built in Kansas was at HumDolt. The people of this territory were hungry for the gospel message. A nrl.nister' s· charge consisted of a circuit made up of classes. Often a; circuit was 200 or even 300 miles in area. The people gathered in homes, ~chool house and store buildings. The mode of travel for the minister was horse back ,0; in a"buckboardlt accompanied with a Bible, Hymn Book and Church Discipline. 1860 was a famine year. Drought appeals were made to the eastern churches for help. Cash, food, and clothing were sent. The IIr-Iissionary Barrels" of those days were a blessing. Also the war clouds were gathering and there was great unrest among all people. , Then in 1861 the beginning of the Cinl War with Kansas, a~ free territory, next to Missouri, a slave state, brought on much border warfare. In fact, Rev. Snyder of the- United Brethren Church of Lawrence was the first man killed in Quantrill's Raid. Our work was greatly hindered. Many were called to the ~ and many met death by bush whackers and hostile Indians. , In spite of the hardships people were deeply interested and the average cpllected for the work in Kansas in 1861 was $3.00 per member. In 1862 pleas were made for the organization of a Kansas Conference. In 1864 the Iowa Conference met and organized the Kansas Conference, which comprised the entire state of Kansas. There were 50 claSses with a membership of 100. Camp meetings were, held near Eudora and Clearfield which was on the Lawrence Circuit. ManY were gloriously saved. The first Kansas Conference session was held at",:LeaveriwOrth in 1865. I In 1 years the work had grown to a membership of 116, 3 churches, 3 parsonages, 2 Sunday Schools with 54 scholars. Early ministers were not overpaid, the average annual salar,y for a single man was $125.00 plus $31.25 for table expense. A married man's salary twice as much' plus $25.00 for each child with $6.25 per year added table service. , In 1811 the Kansas Conference was iricorporated UIlIiier.the Kansas Law!. This gave them the right to do business legally. In 1861 Joseph Rahskopf (father of Ed Rahskopf of 1035 Pennsylvania Street of Lawrence ) was licensed to preach. In 1878 Peter Schumann (father of Katherine Schumann and grandfather of Ethelbert and Emerson Ott) was licensed to preach in Kansas. In 1881 Moses. Dissinger (father of our late Fred Dissinger) served this field. . In 1886 we had the sad misfortune of an abnormal boom. Eastern capital poured in, towns sprang up, real estate inflated and factories, where there was no reasonable grounds for success. �93\ Two years, later there came the depression and our work really faced a crisis. In 1890 S. A. Burgert (father of Ralph, Irma and Alice Nelson of our present congregation) was licensed and in 1890 was sent as the first missionary to Oklahome, liThe Striptl having been opened in 1889. It was ~ very rugged and immoral field. ; In 1893 the language question arose. The local fie Id or church decided to use either or both, the English and German. . In 1897 there was another depression and maQY fields were discontinued or consolidated. In 1899 The Kansas Conference ordered an organization in Lawrence but it failed to materalize. In 1901 F. H. Peek (father of"Harlan Peek of Lawrence) was licensed by the conference held at Willow Springs (now Worden). In 1909 the annual conference held at Jewell located a:j russion at Lawrence ,and appointed E;. J. Feitz as pastor. Thus in May, 1909 E. J. Feitz organized the work at La\'I1rence. The church was to be known as the Zion E;vangelical Church. The organization had 26 members and there was no church home. The first quarter~conference was held in June 1909 composed of the following: Presiding Elder D• Swart, J. Wuerth,P. Schumann, J. Rahskopf, J. Houk, W~. Fleisher, W. F. Zeeb and E. J. Feitz. . It was reported that the Swedish Lutheran Church at 1000 Connecticut Syreet, Lawrence, Kansas was disbanded and their church was for sale. The quarterly conference appointed a committee of five to negotiate for the purchase of the chtirch and in 1909 it was purchased for the swn of $1100.00. Next, the Annual Conference was petitioned for help to remodel the church. In 1911 the church was raised and resided, with labor largely done by the members. Jrnd on S'eptember 3, 1911 the "new church" was dedicated. E~il Wendland was the-pastor. The Ladies Aid was organized at church on October 23, 1913 and they met weekly for work. In Februar,y 1917 it was decided to improve the church building again. The basement was enlarged, a furnace was installed and it was resolved to buy a parsonage;: therefore one was purchased at 1009 Connecticut for $3500.00. In 1919 the Women's Missionar,y Society was organized. In about the year 1920 'the church was partially destroyed by fire. In March 4, 1946 the Zion Evahgelical Church and the United Brethren in Christ Church merged. To our knowledge this was the first merger on the local level of churches later to be known as The Evangelical United Brethren Church. This was brought about by the uniting of the two denominations November 16, 194q,' During the pastorate of Leland Young, 1945-58, ~ new church building at 1501 Massachusetts street was built and dedicated. A few statistics 1909-Church building, 1000 Connecticut St. purchased 1918-Parsonage at 1009 Connecticut St. was purchased 1948-the new church 1501 Hassachusetts St. was built and dedicated 1954-the new parsonage, 1530 Kentuc~ 1956-new cabin built at Forest Park, Topeka 1957-The II Annex" at 1507 Mass.

They set a very high standard for Christians of today. One characteristic of the early church was a consciousness of God's Program "Jesus, the Savious for a Lost World" and the courage to go forth in His power. . So m~ we in like manner go "forward".

' �97 r,A LOVE- THAT TRANSCENDS, SADNESS \\ Written by Willie !10rris; Not too long ago, in a small Southern town where I live, I was invited by friends to go With them and their children to the cemetery to help choose their burial plot. My friends are in the heartiest prime of'life and do not ~ticipate departing the Lord's earth immediately, and hence, far from being funereal, our search had an adventurous mood to it, like picking out a: Christmas tree. It was that hour before twilight, and the marvelous old graveyard with its cedars, and magnolias and flowering glades sang with the Mississippi springtime. The honeysuckled air was an affirmation of the tugs, cind tremors of living. My companions had spent all their lives in the town, and the names on even the oldest stones were as familiar to them as the people theysali'every day.IlLocation," the man of the family said, laughing. liAs the real-eetate magnates say, we want location." , At last they found a plot in the most veneral51e secti'on which was to their liking, having spurned a sha<tr spot which I had ~conunended under a: giant oak. I knew the caretakelI',. would soon have to come to this place of ~heir choice with a long, thin s'teel rod, shoving it into the ground every few inches to see if it struck forgotten coffins. If not, this plot was theirs. Our quest had been a tentative success, and we tetired elseiihere to celebrate. Their humor coincided with mine, for I am no stranger to graveyards~ With rare exceptions, ever since my childhood, they have suffused me not with foreboding but with a sense of belonging and, as I grow older, with a curious, ineffable tenderness. MY dog Pete and I go out into the cemeteries, not only to escape the telephone, and those living beings who place more demands on us than the dead ever would, but to feel a continuity with the now of the generations. "Living,1I William Faulkner wrote, lIis a process of getting rea<tr to be de ad for a long time." I have never been lonely in a:::.cemetery. They are perfect places to observe the slow changing of the seasons, and to absorb human history--the tragedies and anguishes, the violences and treacheries:; and always the guilts; and sorrows of vanished people. In a preternatural quiet, one can almost hear the pailpable, long-ago voices. I especially' like the, smail~toWn cemeteries of America: where"the children, come for picnics; and games, as' we did when I w.as growing up--wandering among the stones on our own, with no adults about, to :J;"egard the mystery and inevitability of death, on itsi terms and ours. I remember we would watch the funerals from afar in hushed "awe, and I believe that was when I became obsessed not with death itself but with the singular cOllUllunity of death and life together--and life's secrets, life's fe ars, life's surprises. Later, in high school, as I waited on a hill to play the echo to taps on my trumpet for the Korean War dead, the tableau below with its shining black hearse and the coffin enshrouded with the flag and the gathering mourners, was like a fO,lk drama, with the earth as its stage. , The great urban carileteries of New'Yo'rk City always filled me with horror, the mile after mile of crowded tombstones which no one ever seemed to visit, as if one could ~ anyone in there even if he wished to. Likewise, the suburban cemeteries of this generation with their carefully manicured lawns. an~' bronze plaques embedded in the ground, all imbued with affluence and a �98 artifice;;.. ~are much too remote for me. My favorites have alw~s been in the old, established places where people honor the long dead and the new. graves are in proximity with the most ancient. The churchyard cemeteries '. of England haunted me with the eternal rhythms of time.' In one of these, years ago as a student at Oxford, I found this inscription: Here lies Johnny Kongapod, Have mercy on him, gracious God. As he would on You if he was God, And You were Johnny Kongapod. Equally magnetic were the graveyards of eastern Long Island, with their patina of the past touched every so niellowly with the present. The cemetery of Wainscott, Long Island, only a few hundred yards from the Atlantic Ocean, sUrrounded the schoolhouse. I would watch the children playing at recess among the graves. Later I discov~red a man and his,)dfe juxtaposed ·under identical stones.. On the wife's tomb was \I Rest in Peace. II On the man IS. at the same level, was "No Comment." I admired the audacity of that. But it is the graveyards of Mississippi which are the most moving for me, having to do, I believe, with my belonging here. They spring from the e~rth itself, and beckon me time and again. The crumbling stones of my pljlople evoke in me the terrible enigmas of living. In a small Civi.l War cemetery which I came across recently, the markers stretching aw~ in a misty haze, it occurred to me that most of these boys had never even had ~Igirl friend. I have found a remote graveyard in the hills with photographs on many of the stones, some nearly one hundred years old, the women in bonnets and Sunday dresses, the men in overalls--"the short and simple arinals of the poor." I am drawn'here to the tiny grave of a little girl. Her name was Fairy Jumper, and she lived from April 14, 1914 to Jan. 16, 1919. There is a miniature lamb at the top of the stone, and the words:"A fairer bud of promise never bloomed." There are no other Jumpers around her, and there she is, my Fairy, in a far corner of that country burial ground, so forlorn and alone that it is difficult to bear. It was in this cemetery on a bleak Februar,y noon that I caught sight of four men digging a grave in the hard, unyielding soil. Atter a time they gave up. After they lett, a man drove toward me in a battered truck. He wanted to know if some fellows had been working on the grave. Yes, I said, but they went away. "Well, I can't finish all by myself." Wordlessly, I helped him dig. One lonesome, windswept afternoon my dog and I were sitting at the crest of' a hill in the town cemetery. DoWn below us, the acres of empty land were coyered with wildflowers. A new road was going in down there, the caretaker told me; the area was large enough to accommodate the next three generations. "With the economy so bad," I had asked him,"how can you be expanding?" He had replied: lilt comes in spurts. Not a one last week. Five put (lown the week before. It's a pretty ste ady business. II Sitting there now in the dappled sunshine, a middle-aged man and his middle-aged dog, gazing across '~a-a the untenanted terrain awaiting its dead, I thought of how each generation lives with its own exclusive solicitudes-the passions, the defeats, the victories, the sacrifices, the names and dates an~:, the faces, belong to each generation in its own passing, for much of every",: t~g except the most unforgettable is ~~on forgotten. And yet: though mucll is taken, much abides. I thought then'..of human beings, on this cinder of ~ planet out at the edge of the universe, hot knowing where we came from, why ,we are here, or where we might go after death--and yet we still laugh, and iCry, and' feel, and love. . ,<- -".,~)_ ' ; -r" + ',.~... ~ ~~. !'~' c..;c..... r \ .. _. ~_._ ' I . ___ i .- - .......-.- .. -"'~' . - ". -.. -. .......

A man by the name of S. S. Snyder came to Lawrence in October, 1854. He was sent as a missionary and staked out a claim near the edge of Lawrence connnunity, mich was. on~ about 600 persons. , During a period of years up to 1914, there were four different locations, most,· of them North of the Kansas River. In 1914 a new brick building was erected at the corner of 11th andVermont. It was known as "The S. S. Snyder Memorial" and was used until 1939 when the church was destroyed by fire. Efforts to raise money, keep the congregation together and build a new building were made but all efforts failed, and'in 1946 the United Brethren merged with the E:vangelical Church. This church was located at 1000 connecticut. - This history dates back to the year 1909. The Evangelical Annual Conference met in Jewell, Kansas. At this Conference a mission was l~cated in Law~nce and Rev. E. J. Fietz was appointed pastor. The church was named Zion E;vangelical. There was a group of 26 members but they had no church to go to fori worship. : Quarter~ Conference met in J\U1e~ 1909. There was a report that the Swedish Lutheran Church at 1000 Connecticut was for sale. This church was. purchased for $1,100.00. The building was in bad shape and needed much repair and remodeling. When the next Annual Conference met, they asked for financial help. The church was raised and re-sided with most of the labor being done by the men of the church. The new church was dedicated on September 3, 1911 with Einil Wendland as pastor. i The Ladies Aid was organized in 1913 and met each week for work. They also served many meals for 19~ and 25¢ a meal to help with the expenses of the church. It was decided in 1911 to improve the building again. So the basement was enlarged, a furnace was installed, and plans were made to purchase a parsonage. The house at 1009 Connecticut across the street from the church was purChased for $3,500.0Q~? . In 1919 a Woman IS Nissionary SOCiety was organized. Money for missions was ~ollected and sent to the missionaries. Nany da¥s were spent in sewing and large packages of clothing for infants and children and other needs of the missionaries, were sent. , The church was partially destroyed by fire in 1920. ,During the years the congregation had been grovling until in 1944, they felt, the need of more room and wished for a new church. The trustees were give~ the power to start a building fund. Their first effort brought in $2,200.00. I beUeve Rev. George Landes' was the pastor at the time. i In 1945 Leland and Elaiile Yourig were sent to the Lawrence Church. They were'a young and enthUSiastic couple who put forth every effort toward organizing and planning for the'new church. ;At Quarter~ Conference in 1945 it was voted to have the District Superintehdent, E. E. Erffmeyer, to present the building project to Annual Corif'erence~ In May of 1945 $10,000.00 was allowed. Then there was an appeal to the General Board of Missions for an additional $10,000.00. In 1941 the Confer.. ._ ence IYouth Fellowship made the Lawrence Church a miSSionary project with a goal :of $5,000.00. The church was still a mission at that time. During this I i, �tinie the United Brethren and Evangelical Churches merged. The merger took pl ace in 1 946,. Property was purchased at 15th and Massachusetts in November of 1945. This site was chosen because the lots were available. It was not far from the old location and was conveniently located in the town. : In 1946 Norman Goode was employed as architect and in iU.947 Ray Angeny was hired as contractor. During August, 1947 ground was broken for the new building and by October the corner stone was laid. Mooris Cleveland made a metal container to place the articles in and Lawrence 110nument Company Jfa.~ nished the corner stone. Items -in the corner stone are: a church hymnal, a ChUrch Discipline, a copy of blueprints for the new building, a list of churdl members, a list of building committee members, a few pieces of money, a copy of :Journal World newspaper, and a new copy of the HolY Bible. : The note burning service was held October 6, 1957 with District Superintendent Henry H. Vogel present. Leland H. Young continued to be the pastor until May, 1958. Work progressed rapidly and the church kept grov1ing spiritually as well as in membership. The Sunday out family put our letters in the church, 23 persons were taken into church membership. Work continued on the new building. R. O. Burgert spent most of his waking hours at the site to see that the project was carried out 'as it should be. lvIr. Burgert was Chairman of the; Building Committee. Leland Young put on his unionalls and spent many, many hours supervising and suggesting with much interest and concern for the best possible results. These men's ver,y lives and souls became entwined in the bricks and rafters of the building. Many others helped in various ways. During the weel~ 0'£ September 15-19, 1948, the church was dedicated with services each night and Sunday, both morning and afternoon, with a basket dinner at the noon hour. The dedication service was held Sunday afternoon wit~ presentation of memorials and gifts, as well as the building fund offering. BishopC. H. Stauffacher was present to give the dedication s~on. : Another parsonage \\las purchased in 1954 at 1530 Kentucky. : The church and Sunday School membership continued to grow until the class rooms were bursting at the seams. In 1957 a house and lot at 1507 was, bought for an annex to be used for class rooms. During this time the members of t,he church built a nice cabin in Forest Park to be used by the youth of the church. The house being used for an annex became unsafe and parking space was ii, need~d, so the house was razed and the house across 15th Street was bought for another annex. There was much more room for the children's classes and BibJ1 School. This did well for several years until it was condemned as unsafe and later was sold • •,The house directly back of the church was bought for a parsonage and later the house and lot south of the parsonage was purchased. The house was moved to make more spaces for parking. This connected Vermont Street with the parlq.ng lot. ,After the annex north of the church was not used, the children's classes were !brought back to the church. It seemed now was the ti."I1le to be'gin planning for an educational wing for the" church. During the 60's there were many triaL runs ,to get the project of building started. In 1972 the program of an addition was begun in earnest. When the Kvangelical United Brethren denomination and the Methodist denomination merged, we needed a name to distinguigh our identity in the tOivn and -Conference. After a fellowship dinner one evening in the church the name Central was decided upon as being the most suitable. I < , , �139 , Ground breaking for the new wing was one Sunday after the,'moe!ling wor- , shfp on November 12, 1972. Ernest Moore was pastor during this period of :,: building. The new educational wing was completed and consecrated on Palm Sund38", April 7, 1974. The architect was Will,Owens. The building committee was: Chairman, Stan Zaremba'; Secretary, B6b Schrock; Treasurer, Earlin Burgert. Others on the committee were Ken Jorgensen, director of construction, 0. H. Garber, John Kliewer, James Hiller, Frank Pippert, and Bob Street. OrVille Carey was Chairman of the TrUstee Board. The building was constructed at ',a cost of $150,000.00.' The Consecration Celebration was attended by Bishop Dixon, who gave the Consecration sermon,and a delicious luncheon which had been arranged and cooked by Lorraine Schrock and Lois Zaremba, and an open house followed. Later in the 70's the church underwent another rejuvenation. The room which had originally been the Chapel was made into a church parlor and named the Ingle Parlor. When the men's Bible -Class was no longer in existence, the rooin was made into a library and resource room. The old fellol-lship hall was remodeled and made into a youth Center. The old kitchen was enclosed and shelves were added to make storage room for tools and other equipment. A nice nursery room was made from some small classrooms. : --This history was prepared by Mrs. ott (Florence) Garber in 1979 and updated in 1981.

I I t·, �148 Name Changing Probably Started in the Days of Ancient Rome One of my sons, flipping through a new paperback called, liThe Book of People,1I wanted to know, why so many performers and other people in the 'public eye had changed their names, and how long this had been going on. Forever, I told him. It began, as so many other things did, among the ancient Romans .Those men who were called to the equestrian order, and had low or llvulgarll names, ,were newly named for the occasion, so that the former name would not disgrace :the dignity of the new position. , : According to Platina, the first pope who changed his name in ascending to the papal throne was Sergius II in 844, because his proper name was "Hog's mouth"--quite unsuitable to the pomp of the tiara. Europeans began changing their names in the Middle Ages, when surnames ,first came into vogue, because so many of the cognomens they bore were derogatory: liThe Bald, II liThe Lame;" liThe Short", liThe One-Eyed", and so forth. Then,as society ranked itself, from serfs up to the nobility, the families who were able to raise themselves 'an economic niche or two often added IIDe" or a IIVon" before their names, even when they were not entitled to. , Beethoven, in fact, was taken to a plebeian court when it was discovered that, despite the "vanll in his ,name, he was not of noble birth. His grandfather, a Flemish vintner, had simply appropriated the aristocratic prefix. for himself. And he was only one of many, in most E,uropean countries where patents of nobility prevailed. (In court, it is said, when Beethoven was questioned, he pointed to his head and heart, exclaiming, IIHy patent nobility is here and here 111) , In the New' World, immigrants changed their name s to blend wi th the ethnic majority~' Paul Revere's father, indeed, had changed his name from IIR1voire,'" upon arriving here from France. Much earlier, the great explorer Qiovanni Caboto, changed his name in middle 'age to John Cabot, when he moved from Venice to London and discovered Newfoundland for the British. , It has been going on ever since--not merely among performers, but in public life as well: at least four U. S. Presidents so disliked their first ~ames" that they abandoned them' for professional careers: Hiram Ulysses Grant, steven Grover Cleveland, Thomas Woodrol'll' Wilson, and John Calvin Collidge. , , ' , ' That probably began when CaiuaJuliua Caesar dropped his first name, too--no doubt ~oWiiig that his family name would live'Jon in KING, CZAR, and KAISER. There is far more in',.a: name than wide-eyed little Juliet ever reailized. a . r.' , t~\·~~ 'c- : ____ _ --Copied with' permission of The Wichita-E'agle-Beacon, Sydney J.

If you have material on Douglas County history, your family in Douglas Cou~ty, diaries, Bible records, school records, etc., please get them to Gra~e. We especially invite our out of state members to contribute in this way for the mutual benefit of everyone. I I Grace also needs typists, copiers and indexers., "I don't know how" is bot a good enough excuse, as none of us knew how until we did it. ! Jean Snedeger, and her committee have been worki~g :on reprinting several Lawrence City Directories so they will be available for purchase by anyone needing them. They have begun updating the county cemetery records for publication in the near future. Please call her if you can help.

Thanks to aTl who,took the time and effort to come to our meetings and instruct us in their specialities. If you have a special topic for a future program, let us know. : I , Sincerely, ; £)~~'.A'/LLh'"~ Donald ,Vaughn, President ********* : The Preemption Act was passed in 1841 by the U. S;. Congress in response totpe demands of the Western states that squatters b:e allowed to preempt lands. Pioneers often settled on public lands before they could be surveyed and kuctioned by the government. At first these claitns were not recognized, but ;in the 1830's temporary preemption laws were passed by Congress. Opposition: to preemption came from Eastern states where it was seen as a threat to their labor supply. A permanent preemption act was passed only after the East¢rn states had been placated by the principle of distribution (i. e., the proceeds of the government land sales would be distributed among the states according to population). Distribution was discarded in 1842, but the preemption principle survived. The act of 1841 permitted settlers to locate a clai* of 160 acres and after about fourteen months of residence to purchase it f1jom the government before public sale for as low as $1.25 an acre. After the passage (1862) of the HOMESTEAD ACT, the value of ,preemption for bona fide !settlers declined, and the practice more and more became a tool for spec~lators. Congress repealed the Preemption Act in;189l.

The rapidly growing Connecticut organization was founded in 1968 and alrea9y has more than 5,000 members. These are from every state in the Union and from many foreign countries; the journal thus becomes more than a regional publication. In the Connecticut Nutmegger can be found: A continuing series: Connecticut Births Before 1730. A continuing series: Connecticut Marriages Before 1750 •. A continuing series: Connecticut , Headsto~es Before 1800. An "Ancestry Service" listing alphabetically the lines ftom charts of members. Book· Reviews Bible Records Articles of general interest to genealogists. iS'the splendid article in the September 1977 ~issue, A good example Vol. X, page 205, bY1 George E. Williams on "Writing a Family Genealogy." Genealogical Queries. These are well-indexed, are not l~ited to Connecticut families but are preponderantly New England, Ne~ York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, and are notable for their spe:cificity. They perhaps represent the largest body of queries, except for the Genealogical Helper, in any ge~ealogical publication. The submitter of each query is identified by his special Nutmegger number. A list of these members and their addresses is updated every two months. Anyone wishing to correspond with an individual regarding a query can contacF Dr. Thomas Go-r-to;~-;~i ~-8&543_3 'fQr_th~_c_ur.r_ent_addr.ess_Qfl the submitter. �6 THE SWEDISH CEMETERY The Swedish Cemetery (also known as the Johnson Cemetery) is located on'a wooded hillside about one mile north of Lone Star, Kansas, on land (called the Adams Campus) now owned by the Kansas University Endowment Association. It is a small cemetery consisting of about sixteen graves enclosed bya rock fence. According to information compiled, by Ada Lindell for Will Hastie's Record of Cemeteries of Douglas County, Kansas, the land for the cemetery was donated by Mr. Lars JOHNSON who came to America from Sweden in 1855. "The first one to be buried in this cemetery was Mr. BERGMAN, who was born in Sweden, and died some time ,between the years 1855-1860. We have no record of who he was, except that he was a bachelor, a farmer and stone, mason." She further states that "the next were two men, father and son. J.S. EKMAN, born in Sweden May 31, 1816, died 1855; his son, Carl EKMAN, born in Sweden, was killed in 1863 during Quantre11's raid. These two stones are of sandstone and, the 1ettering'and dates are almost gone." The following graves are located on the east side of the cemetery in Row 1: Sidney F. HELLSTROM, 1871-1910 Elva HELLSTROM, 1875-1904 Otto HELLSTROM, 1884-1897 Row 2: Oscar HELLSTROM, 1842-1910, born in Sweden* Frans M. HELLSTROM, 1816-1884, born in Sweden* Clara G. HELLSTROM, 1820-1894, born in Sweden* Row '3: Carl E. BJORKLUND, Nov. 7, 1824-Dec. 24, 1895, born inSweden* Helena C. BJORKLUND - Wife, July 19, 1815-0ct. 3, 1893, born in Sweden* Johanna E. JOHNSON, 1810-1885, born in Sweden* Lars JOHNSON, 1811-1885, born in Sweden* Row 4: G.L. JOHNSON, 1849-1901 2 more stones which are unreadable G.L. JOHNSON was not listed in Hastie's book, but two others were for whom there were no stones: Gustave HELLSTROM, born in Sweden 1846, died 1905 Charles John AHLSTROM, born in Sweden 1816, died 1912 On the ,hillside northwest of this cemetery and across the stream lies the remains of the stone house and corncrib of the Hellstrom family £irthp1ace information was given by Ada Lindell in Will Hastie's Record of Cemeteries of Douglas County, 'Kansas.

The Census returns and petition will be kept at my office until the 10th inst. I hope all persons omitted on Census returns, or who wish to sign the Free-State petition will call and do so immediately.

This is the second issue of the Pioneer for 82-83. The new cover and other features have been well received. A big thanks to Editor Grace Embers and her many helpers. We could be facing a financial problem in the near future as postage has doubled to send the Pioneers out of town and the cost of printing and supplies is.up. We would appreciate hearing from our out of state members to help us decide if we should mail Pioneers only twice per year, make them smaller, charge a surcharge for mailing or come up with a better solution. Ilah Derrick has been busy answering genealogical problems sent in by people from the west coast to the east coast and even Europe. Thanks for your work, Ilah. A lot of credit for our good attendance at our meetings go to the Calling Committee headed by Dorothy Clarke with Irma Kidwell and Kathryn Bunton. Thanks for your faithful work.

OLD.ER HOMES IN LA.TtTRENCE ARE NUMEROUS From an article by Mrs. Ivan D. Rowe in the Lawrence Daily Journal \'10 rId , Thursday, December 8, 1960. The first house· in Lawrence lias builtin 1854.. A log cabin about: 18 by 24 feet erected by Clark Stearns from Missouri. The act of organizing the territories of Kansas and Nebraska passed' . Congress" May 30, 1854, and wi thin a few days after that,' Stearns arrived ~nd erected his cabin as a squatter's claim, for a farm. There i~ a cement marker at 615 Massachusetts Street which reads, "Site of the first house in Lawrence,. 60 feet east." In June of the same year, Achilles B. Wade built a cabin east of the present Water Wbrks, on Indiana Street. The old Babcock barn at 2239 West Drive was converted into a duplex by George K. Melvin. Mr. Melvin's grandparents were early settlers. Next door north on the Melvin property is a small house built and used by the Babcocks for the servants. At 623 Indiana, Adam Oliver brought his family from England in 1858 and to Lawrence in 1862. After Quantrill's Raid the family went to Canada for a short time, but soon returned to Lawrence and Oliver built the house at 802 Tennessee. Many people in Lawrence think the 802 Tennessee residence was the fitst house of the Olivers, but records show otherwise. Also in the' 800 block on Tennessee 1s 827 prese.ntly owned by Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Tait.This house was built on the edge of a ravine which was later filled, leaving the first floor below the ground level. _ The Robert Hr Miller house, 1111 East 19th Street, was built in 1858. It was' a farm' home then, and remained in the Miller family until 1952. The house at 743 Indiana Street was built by Hiram Towne, a well-known contractor. This house was rented by Towne to a WidOW·, r4rs. Emily Hoyt, but he reserved a room for himself. Mr. Towne also built North College •. Mr. F. W. Jaedicke, a. gunsmtt~ and hardware merchant, purchased the home in 1879 and the house has remained in the family, being presently owned by a daughter, Mrs. Otto A. Fischer. The house at 1008 Ohio was built by George W. Bell. The 718 Locust residence was built in 1869 by A. J. Dicker. Dicker came to Lawrence in 1868 and built his grocery and mea.t store in North Lawrence and a year later built his home east of the store in the following block. The home is now owned and occupied by Donald Dicke~. Other homes include: 1106 Rhode Island--occupied by Tom Delahunty and his sister was built about 1870 by Tom's f:3..ther, R •. Delahunty., He ';ias in the transfer business when he came to Lawrence in 1867. 702 Rhode Island--built by Julius Fischer in 1869. He was one of the original 15 Germans who were sent out in 1875 from Chicago, by a. German Association, to found the town of Eudora.

A rock wall partially encloses the cemetery. There are only two stones standing: one a footstone and the other a tombstone marking the graves of: Abbie VANCIL, died May 16, 1857, age 13 yrs. 2 mos •. Daniel VANCIL, died Jan. 3, 1864, age 50 yrs. 7 mos. 8 ds. The VANCIL family lived in the Bloomington area which lies in the valley about one mile north of the·cemetery. It is not known how many people were buried here, but there are depressions where some of the graves are located . . According to Ada Lindell in Will Hastie's Record of Cemeteries of Douglas County, Kansas, six other graves are marked with rocks at head and foot. Marshall J. JONES and Mary Ann HOLMES, both born near London, England, were married January 11, 1842, and came from Harper's Ferry, Va. to Kansas in the spring of 1856. They had four boys and four girls. Martha PARKER of the Clinton Lake Historical Society said that their great grandsons·, Olin and Howard PETEFISH, only knew of four children. Marshall was a deacon in the Baptist Church. Hastie states that Marshall preempted the farm on which this cemetery is a part, and that an indenture was made between Henry and Martha ULRICH (daughter of Marshall and Mary JONES) to the Jones Cemetery Association for $5.00 on August 25, 1884. The Trustees were: Henry ULRICH, James M. HALBERT, Michael CATHERMAN, J.W. MATNEY, and Thomas BOND. These records are on file in the Secretary of State's Office, Book 36, p. 336. Marshall, Mary Ann and their oldest son A1pheus Alexander are buried in this cemetery, all having died within a short time of each other. The birth, death and marriage information was obtained from the family .Bible which was later destroyed by fire. Marshall J.

He signed his' name Quantrill; he was born 31 July 1837 at Canal Dover, Ohio,. died 6 June 1865 in Louisville; was buried in hidden grave at St. John.' s Catholic Cemetery; in Dec 1887 his remains were moved to Canal Dover, Ohio.) . . Man known as T.•. G. Henderson died one. day last week at the home of Mrs. Parnell in Birmingham, Alabama.. Before he died he conf'ess'ed to her that he was Charles William Quantrell, the fam6us Missouri ou~lawr who was supposed to have been killed in a fight with Federal soldiers in Kentucky near the close of the .war. (Florence, A.la., Times, 17 Oct. 1.390.) . The Lawrence Massacre'~ . Up to this 'morning 128 bodies have been buried but it is still utterly impossible to obtain a complete list of theirnames~ as s6 many are so much disfigured as to prevent recognition, while others are still missing, and are supposed to be concealed in the woods nearby or, they may be in the ruins of the buildings, besides many left. with Lane in pursui t of Marmaduke and not yet returned •. Fifty of Quantrell'sgang who are citizens o~ Jackson County, Missouri, and are all well known here and have been considered Union men; many of them are paroled prisoners from Pemberton's army, and some· of them are from Price's command, from the fact that they are much sunburnt and have the appearance of having been long in the service. After they had some of them becama their. horses" there as to who they were accomplished the destruction of Lawrence, much intoxicated, but being strapped to were none left behind to give information or where they were from •. Aug. 22--The citizens of Lawrence, shot by QUantrell's band, number 108, incl ud ing the ~1aj or and his son. The inhabitant~ fled into ravines and bushes, where they were fired into by the guerrillas. Twenty-five negro recruits were shot. The guerrillas took all the money in the pockets of citizens and in houses. They stole ladies jewelry even the rings from their fingers. ~ ., �62 QUANTRILL, William Clarke--continued Jim Lane escaped on horseback, rallied about 200 m~n and followed Quantrell about 12 miles south of Lawrenc~, where a fight occurred,. the resul.t of which is unknow-rl. Quantrell is now retreatirig toward Missouri, burning everything on his route. No resistance was made at Lawrence, the people being shot down as they ran through the streets in their night clottles, and their. bodies thrown into 'wells and cisterns. The ci tizens had been expecting this raid and had organized into companied for defence, but from assurances that '~usmtrell would not invade K~nsas, their organizations were abandoned and the gue~rillas found them entirely defenceless. (Nashville Daily Union, 22 Aug 1863.) Quantrell's force reached the headwaters of Grand River, Cass County, Missouri, about noon on August 25, after burning Lawrence and. then divided into squads of from 40 to 50, and scattered in variOus. directions. Quantrell's men told many persons before reaching Lawrence that they were going to destroy the tOTl'ln, but by some strange fatality~ the people along the route, who might easily have gotten word to Lawrence, did not try. A messenger was sent by capt. Coleman to notify the people of Lawrence of Quantrell's appr'oach, but f~1.1ed to get through. (Nashville Daily Uni-on, 25 Aug 1 8 6 5 ) · . 'Quantrell's raid made 85 widows and 250 orphans. Dispatch, 28 Aug 1863.) (Nashville Aug 20--Guerrillas under Quantrell with SOO'men crossed into'Kansas near Gardner, 4 mile~ below Leavenworth, and started for Lawrence and pillaged stores, shot citizens and fired houses. (Nashville Dispatch, 22 Aug 1863.) Quantrell's band is now retreating toward Missouri, burning everything on the route. His force consists of guerrillas who have been robbing and murdering along the border for months~ (Nashville Dispatch 23 Aug 1863) , As of the 24th, 128 bodies have been buried at Lawrence, Kansas; others are missing and are probably in the ruins. (Nashville Dispatch,. 26 Aug 1863.) At. Lawrence, Kansas, 183 bodies have been buried and there are 182 b~ildings burned.

Because the first Naturalization )rct passed by Congress on 26 March 1790 provi ded that an ali en who desi red to become a ci tizen should apply- to 't-anycommon law court of record" i:n anyone of the states where he shan have resided' fo'r the term of one year at least"', he may have been naturalized in the Federal, State or Local Courts'. On 29 Jan 1795', Congress passed a new N'aturali zation Act requiring a res-· idence period of five years and renunciation of allegiances and titles of nobility as pre",requisi te to citizenship., This was amended on 18; June H798 to require' :r:esidence of fourteen years, and declaration of iintention for five years'., However this was repealed in 1802 when the Naturalization Law of 1795 was re-inacted~ Prior to the present Naturali zation Law (1952)', an applicant had to wait a11: least two years after filing a Declaration of Intention to become a citizen before he could file a Petition for Naturalization. This is no longer necess~ry. Records of naturali zation proceedings in the Federal Courts are usuarIy;: found in records of the Dfstrict Court in which the proceedings took prace. Records prior to 27 Sept 1906, may stillil be in custody of the court-, they may' have: been transferred'to the' National!, ArChives:, or they may have been transferred' to the Federal Records' Center operated by the GSA. Sfnce 1906:, dupTicates' of the records are deposited with the Commissioner of Immigration and Naturalization, Washington, D~ C~ I'n the late 1930"s', the WPJt began to make photographic copies' of the records and to index them. Copies and indexes filed by the courts in Maine, Massachusetts', New Hampshire and Rhode lsland 1787-1906, and for the District of Columbia' 1802;... 1.926" are now, in the Nationa11 Archives. Information on the records fnclude the place and date of birth of the alien, the country' from which he emigrated, name of the vessel, date and port of arrfvall, in the U. S., the name under which he traveled and more. An alien was permitted' to change his name at the time of his' apprication fo'r citizenship', which decree would be shown on the Naturali zation Certificate when issued. Advice from the Federal Records Center is that the federal law which prevented copying of a Naturali zation Certificate has been repealed~ and that an naturali zation records are public records;.

This box was found buried under a woodpile adjoining the SurveyorGeneral (Calhoun's) land office at Lecompton, February 2, 1858. It contained the returns of the election of December 21, 1857, for the Lecompton Constitution; also the results of the election of January 4, 1858, under said constitution, as sworn to by General Samuel Walker (Sheriff of Douglas County), by Governor Denver, G.W. Dietzler (Speaker of the House of Representatives), and C.W. Babcock, President of the Council of the Territorial Legislature of Kansas. This discovery is but one of the many important objects gained through the exertions of the "Board of Commissioners for the Investigation of Election Frauds." The board consists of Messers H.J. Adams, J.R. Abbott, Thomas Ewing, jr., D. Pickering and H.T. Green. Information has been received that the returns were under a woodpile, instead of having been sent to John Calhoun by a messenger from Platte county, Missouri as testified to under oath, on the 29th of January by General L.A. Maclean, Chief Clerk of the Surveyor-Genera1's office. The board applied to I. Miller, Judge of the Probate, who instructed Sheriff Walker to obtain the people's assistance and search for said returns. Having obtained the assistance of George Roberts, Lewis H. Tappan, Levi Ga1ts, A. Gunther, L. Hanscourt, J.R. White, D.B. Hones, R. Hutchins, I. Shepherd, S. Jerrold, H.J. King, J.F. Walker, J.B. Haines and C.H. Webster, they proceeded -from Lawrence to Lecompton where they arrived at 12 o'clock midnight, and procured this box and contents as above stated. This added infamy to the Lecompton convention and affixed to its president the name of "Candle Box Calhoun". When the people voted on the constitution in August 1858, there were 1,788 for and 11,300 against it." --copied by Pauline B. E1niff at Spencer Research Library, Lawrence, KS. ****** .. .

The number of people involved in low until the last ten years. A tremendous with both good and bad effects. have been involved in genealogy, for most of us to a big business genealogy had remained relatively growth has taken place since then The good effects? Many town, county and state genealogical societies have been formed, most publishing quarterlies and newsletters concerning their areas of interest. This has been a great help to searchers.in distant areas. Many genealogical publishing companies have begun business offering a wealth of books and data on most areas of the country. Numerous charts and filing systems and how to do it books are available. Several magazines such as the "Genealogical Helper" have been helpful to many. Professional genealogists are more than willing to help you for a fee. Workshops and conferences large and small offer speakers on a wide variety of subjects. Computers are being used to increase the ease of record keeping and retrieval. Bad effects? Some county courthouse officials refuse to help genealogists in any way, or .very grudgingly, because they are too busy or their records have been stolen. Some professional genealogists turn out to be not so professional. Some do not render the service paid for. Organizations such as "Beatrice B. Bailey" prey on the unsuspecting genealogist. The economic situation has limited some library services. Some such as Kansas City, Mo. are charging a user fee. The federal government has eliminated interlibrary loan of microfilmed census records and reduced other service. To use our time and money wisely, we need to be aware of what is offered for our use by libraries, societies, family associations, publishers, etc. If we plan to use a professional, choose with care and investigate thoroughly. Talk to other genealogists--they are more than willing to share ideas. Finally, do not take genealogy too seriously, but have fun.

O. ***** Herald of Freedom, Jan. 20, 1855, p. 2, c. 4 The First Baby The first birth in this city was on the 25th of October last. The Lawrence Association donated the boy a first class city lot, and named him Lawrence CARTER, after the city and his parents. We learn that the little fellow is quite healthy, and is growing finely. May he live to see our beautiful city ranking with the first in the Union in all that pertains to wealth, education, morality, and refinement. We may be allowed to say, in this connection, that the first white child born in Chicago is now but tt-Jenty-two years old, while the city boasts of a population of near 80,000. May not a destiny equally prosperous await our own Lawrence? --Jane Wiggins, Lawrence, KS �117 RURAL MAIL DELIVERY AND UNCOLLECTED LETTERS A letter from the General Services Administration dated lApril 1982, gives the following information concerning the "Lists of Letters Remaining in the Lawrence Post Office" which were published in The Herald of Freedom, 8 August 1857, 5 September 1857, and 1 October 1857. "The rural service began in 1896, but post offices in some cities and villages employed carriers to deliver mail before that date. Excerpts from the 1851 United States Postal Guide contain information on the advertisement of uncollected letters left in post offices." The 1851 United States Postal Guide states on page SO: "Advertising Letters.-Under the 5th section of the act of 3d Harch, 1851, providing for the advertising of uncalled for letters, the postmastergeneral has made the following regulations, viz.: When the gross receipts of the post-office for the then next preceding quarter shall not have exceeded $500, the postmaster shall advertise such uncalled for letters once in six weeks only: When such gross receipts shall have exceeded $500, and have not exceeded $1,000, the postmaster shall advertise once a month only: When such gross receipts shall have exceeded $1,000, and shall not have exceeded $7;500, the postmaster shall advertise twice a month: And when such gross receipts shall have exceeded $7,500, the postmaster shall advertise once a week." "Such advertisements are to be inserted in one newspaper only, which must be printed in the city, town, or village in which the post-office is situated, and must have the largest circulation within the range of delivery of said office of any paper issued weekly or oftener, printed in such city, town, or village. Should the publisher of such paper refuse to give such list of letters one insertion, at one cent for each letter,' the postmaster will designate some other paper for this service. He is also required to post in a conspicuous place in his office a copy of such list, on the day or day after the publication thereof." "If there is no newspaper printed in the city, town, or village where' the post-office is kept, or if the publishers of all the papers so printed shall refuse to advertise the letters for the price above mentioned, then manuscript lists of them are to be made out and posted at such public places in the town and neighborhood as shall appear best adapted for the information of the parties concerned. Refused letters are not to be advertised, nor those which the postmaster expects will be immediately taken from the office. Drop and box letters, circulars, free packets containing printed documents, speeches, or other printed matter, are not to be advertised." --Pauline B.Elniff, Lawrence, KS. * * * * ** From the Baldwin Ledger, January 28, 1921: "A big wolf hunt has been planned for the Vinland neighborhood next Sat. Jan 29. The round up will take place on the A.K. Stephens farm. W.D. Fordyce is the manager of the drive." --Ju~y M.

It is truly a society endeavor and without your help, we would not have the quality and variety which we now have. __ I Gra,c~~~bers, Editor: j____ _ ___ '1'; , �157 PRESIDENT'S LETTER The past two years have passed quickly. The Douglas County Genealogical Society has accomplished a great deal, but much work remains to be done. I have had the good fortune and opportunity to meet, in person and by correspondence, many endearing and interesting people. Some I will never see but the friendships made will be remembered for a long time. My own genealogy work has had to take a back seat to a great extent. But the rewarding experience of helping others has given me an insight into many ideas and methods of searching. I would recommend copying records for the Pioneer,indexing census records, working on cemetery projects, copying city and county records, etc., as an excellent way to practice, at home, the skills needed to do research in far away places where your ancestors lived. A great big thank you to all members and friends who have made the two y e 1:irs of my presidency enjoyable. Your help and cooperation is greatly appreciated. Sj5J/+ Donald Vaughn, President *** * HURT WHILE FLUSHING SEWERS John PATTERSON, A City Employee, Injured by Passing Team John PATTERSON, a city employee, was flushing sewers in the manhole just south of Winthrop St. at the east end of the old Windsor Hotel, this morning about 9 o'clock,when he was seriously hurt by one of a team of EVANS Transfer horses stepping into the open flushtank, and striking him on the head. The driver did not see that the tank was uncovered. One of the horses hind legs went down into the tank onto PATTERSON. The horse was rescued from his perilous position and then PATTERSON was taken out. A Doctor was at once , summoned, and after his injuries had been temporarily dressed he was taken to his home. Dr.' SELLARDS found him in great pain and suffering from a bad cut in the face. PATTERSON also complained of his side.

They reproduced the following article. No dates were given. A PATRIOTIC FAMILY We were asked to reproduce the clipping printed below, as the various branches of the KIDWELL family each wishes to preserve a copy in the family records. We do not know what paper it is taken from. We are glad to reprint the article with a few other facts we have learned of this unusual family of brothers. There were ten of them when the war broke out--William, George, Thomas, John, Luna, Henry, David, Joe, James and Joshua. All of them, except the last two, served through the war in the. Union army. James was in the service of the government as a mail carrier, and Joshua was too young. Thomas was killed in battle. David and Luna were killed by guerrillas in Missouri shortly after Lee's surrender. All the others lived to return to their home. Henry KIDWELL was the husband of the Mrs. KIDWELL now living in Barnard. He died in Eastern Kansas Nov. 24, 1889 and is buried in the soldiers' cemetery at Fort Scott. It will be noted that six of the KIDWELL boys were in one company; ItW.L. Roney, Co. F. 8th Mo. S, M. Cav. Marquette, Kansas, writes: "I send a list, alphabetically, of brothers in company to which I belonged. I was First Sergeant most of the time, and have called the roll so often that the names are all fresh in my memory. There were 23 sets of brothers in the company; six in one set, four in another, three in two sets, and the remainder pairs. The sets were as follows: Granvill F.

HOUGLAND From a Panel at WATKINS COMMUNITY MUSEUM Courtesy of Steve Jansen, Curator Many European immigrants settled in Lawrence in its early days. The 1860 census shows 88 from Ireland, 66 from Germany, 71 from England, 26 from Sweden, 16 from Wales, 7 from France, 7 from Scotland, 4 from Switzerland, 1 each from Denmark, Austria, Holland, Norway and Poland. Also listed 24 persons from Nova Scotia and 8 from New Brunswick. The year Lawrence was settled 1854 was a peak year for German immigration into the U. S. Germans eventually became the most numerous Europeans in the Town. In 1855 there were at least two Germans living in Lawrence. J. G. Sands, a saddlemaker and H. Katzenstein, a fabric dealer. The Territorial census (of 1855) show there were 115 Germans in the Territory. Germans were encouraged to emmigrate to Kansas by The New England Emmigrant ~Ai~ Company. __ . ____._____ ._ �169 NATIONAL GUARD MOBILIZED FOR THE DISPUTE .AND POSSIBLE WAR WITH MEXICO Abstracted from the Lawrence Daily Gazette; Lawrence, Kansas, Thursday, June 22, 1916. Contributed by Dorothy CLARKE, the daughter of Captain Samuel G. CLARK. GOOD-BYE SAID IN TEARS The Lawrence soldiers have gone. At 8:35 o'clock this morning, amid a roar of cheers, shouts of farewell, and a shriek of whistles, their troop train pulled slowly away from the Union Pacific station, with soldier boys showing at every window of three long cars, leaving a crowd of thousands behind,hat-and flags waving, and with many a tearful eye. The boys who left this morning included Co. H and the Hospital Corps, to which organization practically all the Lawrence boys belong. In.Company H were eighty men, with the exception of a few men who will join the command at Fort Riley and a recruiting detail which includes Lieutenant Guy WALLING, Corporal Clinton KANAGA, and privates George SMITH and Cameron SHAFFER. The Hospital Corps included forty-eight men, one or two of whom will also join their corps at the fort. The soldiers who left Lawrence today numbered 134, which included eighty in Company H, forty~four in the medical corps, and ten members of the supply company. Following is the complete list of the officers and men who left this morning. The following members of Company H left for Fort Riley this morning: Captain Samuel G. CLARK 2nd Lieut. Oscar C.

BEBOUT Ray J. MORGAN James Napoleon HODGES �171 PIONEER i'-UDlHFE Reprinted from J~n. 1959 This article was taken from Ford Times, Ford Meter Box Co., January, 1980. The hospital news in our local paper lists the births, and while there may be some babies born in private homes in this community they're either extremely rare or don't get into print. In most of our country nearly all deliveries are in ho~pitals, and doctors are in attendance at a large percentage of the others. As a result, loss of babies in childbirth is uncommon and loss of mothers has approached zero. The story of my grandmother makes an interesting contrast. She died before I was born but my mother told me memories of her childhood when Grandmother evideritly served as midwife for a large number of farm families back in the 1~70's. Grandmother had eight children of her own, did all the managing and much of the work in running the home on the farm, and still had time to help all the neighbors in times 'of illtiess, birth and death. Pay for such service was unthought of. Mother recalled many times when, as a little child, she would be awakened in the. night by a man coming to their home on horseback, hearing a short muffled conversation, then Grandmother riding away on a farm horse, lantern in one hand and a bag hanging on the saddle. Grandmother would generally be back at breakfast but none of the children felt bold enough to ask what had happened. They had learned that if they waited patiently for a while it would be ~entioned in a casual way th~t some neighbor had a baby born last night. There is no way of kriowing what losses, if any, my grandmother had in her midwife service. She was lacking in many things now considered necessary in obstetrics, and I suppose our present-day obstetricians wonder how Grandmother (and the countl.ess other "grandmothers" of a century ago) could do as well as she did. But no doctor could have served less selfishly or with more devotion and tender loving care, and these things may be almost as important in most cases.as.the modern techniques and equipment in our fine new hospitals.. .

Box 542, Portola, CA 96122 The following is a copy of a review by Louise M. EVERTON of a book by one of our members, Dr. Thomas GORTON. It appeared in the November-December, 1982 issue of The Genealogical Helper. SAMUEL GORTON OF RHODE ISLAND AND HIS DESCENDANTS, 1982. Published by Gateway Press, Inc. Written by and available from Thomas GORTON, 831 Illinois Street, Lawrence, KS ·66044. Hardbound, 6x9 inches, 568 pages, indexed, $30.00. An attempt to trace the lineage of as many living descendants of Samuel GORTON as possible and to. provide a new historical biography of the champion of political and religious freedom, drawing largely upon original source material, are the twofold, purposes of this history. Samuel GORTON, a towering Colonial figure of whom his descendants might well be proud, was an early Governor of Rhode Island and founder of the town of Warwick. He was born in . the chape1ry of Gorton, city of Manchester, Lancashire, England. He was baptized on 12 February 1592/93. Samuel married, sometime before 1630, Mary MAPLETT in England, they were parents to nine surviving children. Samuel and Mary, several small children and Mary's. middle-aged servant, Ellen ALDRIDGE, arrived in Boston from-England about March 1636/37. This family's movements to Plymouth, Aquidneck, Providence, Pawtuxet, Shawomet, back to England and then again returning to America are chronicled by the author. Twelve generations of the Samuel and Mary GORTON family are included in this fine history. A.numbering system has been used to easily identify each descendant. A fu11name index completes this fine history. �185 SLAVES IN LECOMPTON Yes, through research, we have found some interesting stories of the early slaves of Lecompton. In the Lawrence Daily Journal World, March 13,. 1933, it states "The first census of Kansas, taken February 28, 1855, showed there were 151 free Negros and 193 slaves. During the years 1854, 1855 and 1856, the slave population increased to over 400, owned by about fifty slaveholders. But when it became apparent that the Free State men were in the majority in Kansas ,. and the slave code was abolished by the first state legislature, February 23, 1860, the slave owners left the ~erritory and took their slaves with them. In 1855, Col. H.T. TITUS and GeorgeW. CLARKE, of Lecompton, jointly owned a slave named Ann CLARKE. She ran away to Topeka, but was arrested and returned to her masters; but soon after escaped again and succeeded in making her way, through the underground railway, to Chicago. Douglas City, a short distance below Lecompton, on the Kaw river, is one of the ghost towns of Douglas county. There were two slaveholders in Douglas City; Mr. ELLISON and Mr. WALLIS. A slave named Buck JONES, owned by Mr. DOUGLAS, in Lecompton, bought his freedom by working for wages in Lecompton. The Lecompton Union, (newspaper) in 1856, offered a reward of $50 for the return of "Judy" a slave, who was supposed to be secreted in Lawrence. A Mr. BROOKS, in Lecompton, in 1855-56, owned four slaves. Judge Rush ELMORE of the Kansas Territorial Supreme Court, brought fourteen slaves from Alabama to Lecompton; but soon removed them to his farm, one mile south of Tecumseh, in Shawnee county.' There were slaves in Jefferson County. A man named SKAGGS in Kentucky township, owned twenty-seven; but took them to Texas in 1859. Our subject was one of these slaves, as he is listed in the 1855 census, as living with his owner James SKAGGS, on the list of settlers on the Kansas Half Breed lands opposite Douglas City, east of Lecompton. Also is listed in this same census Mr. WID. F. BAYNE, whom our subject mentions in his article who was his wife's master. The following article was found in' "The Lecompton Sun"Friday, June 24, 1904.' We thought this article would be interesting to our readers, as this. slave Robert SKEGGS(SKAGGS) is buried at East View Cemetery, at Big Springs, Kansas. The home that he bought is now owned by Art and Ethel PETERSILIE on County Road 111025, northeast of Big'Springs in Douglas County. Robert SKEGGS (SKAGGS) who lives in the southwest part of this township, is the only man on earth who was a slave in the city of Lecompton. Our illustration is a pretty fair likeness of Mr. SKEGGS as he looks today. Mr. SKEGGS' history would read like a story from another world; as indeed it is. Half of his life was spent in slavery, he having been almost 40 years old when his master told him he was free .. The old gentleman says he is nearly 82 years old and the way he first learned his age was at the time of his old master's death when the appraisers were fixing the value of the slaves before dividing the property. His young master gave his age as the same as that of his sister and she was 25. His young master took him at.$700. though the slave trader in his old home in Kentucky said, if they would put him on the block he would start him at $1800. for he knew his trade would sell him well. He was a blacksmith. .His master, James SKEGGS, brought him to Kansas in 1853, and they settled and built a cabin in Jefferson county on the farm that Matt JONES sold to Charles STARK a few years ago. Mr. SKEGGS remembers when there was only one house in Lecompton and �186 that was a "whiskey house." When he was a slave he hewed, in the timber, the frame work for the house that Mr. LEAMER lived in for so many years and was torn down to give place to his present residence. When Kansas was admitted as a free state, his master took him to Texas where he worked six years a slave and two years a free man before he got money to come· back to Kansas and see. his '. wife's old master, Billy BAYNES, who lived near Williamstown in Jefferson county. The story of Mr. BAYNES' help and friendship and the magnanimous way in which he gave Mrs. SKEGGS her freedom. is a chapter by itself and can not be told at this time. Mr. SKEGGS spent his first year of. freedom farming .on the shares; he got the ninth row of corn or one bushel to the other man's eight. His wife worked for her clothes and victuals and the clothes and victuals of two of his sister,' s children that s_he was raising. The second year he got half and that year made enough to "come back" to Kansas. r. ROBERT SKEGGS Mr. SKEGGS and his wife are well respected by their neighbors. They are honest, peacable, hardworking, colored people. They own the farm where they live and owe no man a dollar. They are kind and hospitable and bear no resentment to the system that kept them in slavery so long, and yet so long ago that a new generation has grown up that never saw a human being that was once called the property of others. Mr. SKEGGS often comes to town when he has business here and never otherwise, for he is in no sense a loafer. He has promised to attend the celebration at Lecompton, July 4th, and if his wife is able to come he will bring her along. The old did not have from, "but I too, I could man says that when he was informed by his'master he was free, he a cent in the world, did not know where the next meal was coming didn't worry. I knew if I could make a living for myself and him get along some way with hi'mleft pff." Col. NACE, Mr. & Mrs. WID. LEAMER, and a. few other old settlers remember Mr. SKEGGS from slavery days and they say his word is reliable.

Several books have been.received from Mr. Amos A. LAWRENCE and Mrs. Mary WEBB, of Boston, for the Lawrence Athaeneum, and a large addition to those already received will be sent on to this city early in the spring, when navigation opens. . Our Athaeneum, though young and in its infancy, starts with fair prospects of becoming one of the first Literary Institutions in the country. May it prosper, and shed its benign influences over the minds of all the inhabitants of Kansas, is no doubt the ardent wish of its pioneer founders. --Jane Wiggins �187 DOUGLAS COUNTY - KANWAKA TOWNSHIP 1875 KANSAS STATE CENSUS Post Office - Lecompton Volume 19, Pages 1-21 Name Age Birth Where from Sex Color Occupation Place to KS Page VINCENT, J.

It was lithographed by L.D. BRADFORD and Co., of Boston, on a scale of 450 feet to the inch. Every lot is numbered on the different streets in regular order. It is an elegant piece of workmanship, and speaks well for the artists who were engaged upon it. The streets, thirty-two in number, running north and south, are named after the several States of the Union. Thirteen of the streets in the eastern part of the city are named after the thirteen original States. The balance of the streets west of Massachusetts street are named after the remaining nineteen States, in the order in which they were admitted into the Union - California street being at the extreme western limits of the city. - What has of late been called Main street is now named after the Old Bay State. - The streets running east and west are named in honor of distinguished men, who have done something in the sacred cause of liberty. Ten Parks are 'laid out within the city. Oread Mount is set apart for schools and churches; Capitol Hill for colleges, county buildings, etc. Five of these Parks have been named respectively in honor of Roger Williams, Washington, La Fayette, Hamilton, and Franklin. -Jane Wiggins, Lawrence, KS. �204 QUERIES Queries are free to members.

Many sizeable tasks have been undertaken. The gathering and preserving of the older records from our county is certainly going forward with great gusto. The largest project, 6f course, being the complete cemetery census of Douglas County. The many people who contributed to this mammoth task and will continue to contribute until it has been completed will have the unending gratitude of this writer. The many people, both local and those who are in touch by mail or telephone, contributed many hours of their time and interest although they were not in our society. To all of them, a big "THANKS". But, honorable mention must be made of the special people who helped read the stones in the severe cold last winter. This took much determination on their part and great dedication to the task set before them. 'Because they worked such long, cold hours, I want to here recognize each one: Harold Graves Wilma Vaughn I1ah,Derrick Peter Vo1ding Don Vaughn Maxine Hougland Judy Sweets Jane Wi.ggins Grace Embers Ruby Puckett Dorothy Wiggins Ramona Sedlak John Banta Jo Ann Transmeier Iona Spencer Shirley Herbert Pauline E1niff Vivian Clough Amy Corbett Maxine Graves Martha Parker Let's keep going forward. Sincerely, Jean Snedeger ******** EDITOR'S MESSAGE The one person who is missing from the list above without whom the Cemetery Project would not have progressed to where it is today is out President, Jean Snedeger. Her enthusiasm and dedication to this important task have been extraordinary. The record shows that during the past year she has copied more than 15,000 Douglas county cemetery stones. She deserves our sincere gratitude. I wish to thank all of those people who continue to contribute their time and material to "The Pioneer." If there are particular articles or records which you would like to see in future issues of "The Pioneer," please let me know. Your suggestions are always welcome.

Abstracted from an article by Edward Bumgardner in the Journal World, (Lawrence, Kansas), Saturday. August 23. 1941. The recent dismantllng of the old Quaker church in east Lawrence and the use of part of the material for the construction of a new temple of worship makes the present seem to be an appropriate time to recount briefly the history of the old church and pay tribute to the memory of some of the worthy citizens who were accustome~ to assemble under its roof. Soon after the settlement of Indiana Quakers at Springdale. Kansas in 1857. came the founding ot a Quaker settlement about ' twelve miles east of Lawrence. The 'first settlers were Jonathan and Phoebe MENDENHALL. Lev1 and Sarah WOODARD. and George ROGERS. This community was called Springfield. In 1869. Springfield. thereafter known as HESPER. requested a qUarterly meeting wh1ch wasse,t upon the f1fth of the th1rd month of 1870. At one time H'e'sper had a membership of 1400. . The "fIrst Quaker meeting 1n Lawrence was held in July. 1863. \:-- , less than a month before Quantril1"fs raid. In 1865. several . Quaker families settled 1n Lawrence. Washington HADLEY was the f1rst to settle here. He was to become the f1rst president of the National Bank of Lawrence. the president of the gas company. served two terms as mayor of Lawrence. and took an act1ve part in the format1on,of the yearly meeting after serving as the first clerk of the ReS'pST' Quarterly meeting. The f1rstpreacher for the Lawrence congregation was Mrs. M. Cox. who served from 1867 to 1879 without pay. She was succeeded by Wil11am NICHOLSON. The first supported pastor in the state was John VI~NEDGE. who ministered to the HOMESTEAD monthly meet1ngs in 1886. The first paid pastor in Lawrence was William WOOTEN. who served from 1897 to 1908. ' The Kansas Yearly Meet1ng of Friends was organized in 1872 and figured in notable migrat10n of Friends to Kansas. The Fr1ends ~eet1ng house stood on a knoll 1n east Lawrence from 1872 to the present summer (1941). Stone and lumber from the old structure were used in the new Friends church at ,S:ixteenth and New Hampshire streets. ' The first meet1ng 1n the new temple Was in October. 1872. The total attendance was estimated at 3000. That was more than the total number reported by the four qUarterly meetings. (Springdale had 536 members; Hesper 720; Cottonwood 594; and Spring River 767) . ..' ',i , Other Lawrence area Quakers mentioned in this rather lengthy article were: Richard A. COX. Mahlon H. NEWLIN. Albert L.• COX. "" John M. NEWLIN. Edmund STANLEY. Joh:ij D. MILES. Laban J. MILES. . . . . Mrs. A. HENLEY. and Walter Roscoe STUBBS. who later became Govet-n6r' of the state of Kansas.

Continue in this manner. listing as many of your ancestors as you have on your pedigree chart. The empty spaces on your pedigree chart are skipped completely on your Ahnentafel chart. 'l'hus. i f you kno..., the name of your paternal great-grandfather. but not the name of yC'ur paternal great-grandmother. you would list his name (#8). skip her·number (#9) and go on to person #10. Using the following examples of an actual pedigree and ahnentafel. it is easy to see in what manner the Ahnentafel was constructed. Gail lists herself as #1. followed by her father (#2) and her mother (1f3). She then lists her paternal grandparents (H4 and #5). her maternal grandparents (#6 and #7) and her paternal great-grandparents (#8.#9.#10 & #1.1) • Sl..nce the names of her maternal great-grandparents are at this time unknown. their numbers are not written on the Ahnentafel chart. Instead. the next number and name listed is that of the paternal greatgreat-grandfather (#16), whose name is known. Remember that a father's number is always twice that ~f his child's, while a mother's number is always one more than her husband's. Looking at our example. notice that the father of Frank Garrett (#4) is Marcus Garrett (2 X #4= #8) , while his mother is Clara Belle Speer (#8+1=#9). To find the child of Edwin M.• Jenkins (#10). simply divide by two and find that #5 (Nona Jenkins) is his daughter. Because of their compact quality, Ahnentafels are handy for exchanges with other genealogists and show at a glance which ancestors you have knowledge of and which ones you are still seeking. On the following page we show the Ahnentafel of one of our members. Gail' Garrett Van Loenen. what not try to construct· your ~ Ahnentafel. using the steps outlined above?

It was the first public burying ground for the use of citizens of Lawrence. Much of the early history of Lawrence may be reconstructed in the mind of the observer by reading the inscriptions on the moss covered and broken head stones in the cemetery. The cemetery is located southwest of the University, on the road leading from the campus to Number Six school. It is a six-acre plot, a little north of the center of the east side of the NE quarter of .section 2, township 13, range 19. According to information compiled by Elmer E. BROWN, the land where the cemetery is located was preempted by Aaron PERRY. It was established soon after the settlement of Lawrence and burial was by permission and without system or plot. Burials may have been. made prior to 1855 but the first burial by marked monument was that of Cornelius C&~BE~L. The inscription on the stone says that he died on April 22, 1855 at the age of 56 years. The second oldest burial, according to marked stones, was that of Carl G. RAU. The third burial was that of Thomas W. BARBER, who died on December 6, 1855. QUANTRILL's raid on August 21, 1863 added many new gra"es to the cemetery. Most of the victims were interred there but upon opening Oak Hill cemetery in 1865 many bodies of QUANTRILL's victims were moved to the new burial ground. A suitable monument was erected to the victims. According to stones remaining in the old burial grounds a large number of the victims of the raid still rest where they were first buried. The reinterment of the QUANTRILL victims was carried out in 1872. Elmer E. BROWN says the G.A.R., thru the efforts of C.W. SMITH, applied to the government for markers for the graves of the Wisconsin soldiers and these were finally received and set up by Charlie APITZ under the direction of SMITH. Some 20 of these markers are still in the Pioneer plot. BROWN says that thru the efforts of Mr. SMITH funds were raised to build a monument to the unknown dead of the Civil war. O. WHIPPLE, a plasterer and stone mason and a member of the G.A.R., built a monument of brick and plastered it. Metal letters forming an inscription were placed on it but have long since fallen away. BROWN says the cemetery was once surrounded by a well-laid dry rock wall fence. Boys after rabbits tore down the wall and the stone was gradually hauled away. �31 A black locust thicket grew over most of the ground and when the surroundi~g property came into the possession of N.A. GWIN, he made the proposition that if materials were furnished he would fence the ground and turn his herd of goats in to clean off the brush. The fence was built and the brush cleared away. Early in the history of the cemetery, N.P. DEMING found that the deed to property held by him to the north of the cemetery covered all or a part of the cemetery, and BROWN says C.W. SMITH raised $135 to purchase the land from DEMING. The deed was made on April 1, 1867. The following, written by W.C. SIMONS, is taken from the Lawrence Journal World of May 11, 1915: "BEAUTIFUL OLD FORGOTTEN CEMETERY" Tragic story of the early days of Lawrence written in stone where early martyrs rest. Records have been lost and many of the dead have been forgotten. The cemetery came into disuse more than forty years ago, when Oak Hill was opened. Within five minutes walk from Mount Oread, with its teeming life, is a quiet and beautiful city of the dead in which sleep those who passed away during the early daYS,,~/of Lawrence. Originally a stony knoll, overlooking the Wakarusa, it has now a spot of great beauty shaded by trees planted by loving hands many ago. ~ere sleep early settlers, men,who fell in the border warfare martyrs to freedom and beside them sleep little babes, who, if they lived, would now be old men and women, for this quiet and forgotten was used sixty years ago. become years as had cemetery Here, too, rest a large number of soldiers from Wisconsin regiments, probably little more than boys when they marched away from their homes in the sixties, and for half a century they have been resting with their faces turned toward the azure blue of a Kansas sky. The story of epidemics which swept away the little ones is told by a large number of little slabs bearing almost the same date. Perhaps it was scarlet fever, or diphtheria, before the modern anti-toxins of today were known, but whatever it was it robbed: the poor homes of the early settlers of Lawrence of their dearest treasures. Character there is also in the monuments still standing or lying broken on the ground. We find the ephemeral American policy of show in a stucco monument to "tile unknown dead and the solid, enduring work of the Germans in solid granite set about with iron posts and chains which show little wear for their half century of exposure. It was a long way to the old settler, perhaps two miles from Massachusetts s,treet and it was then up almost inaccessible hills, but those who were living followed the bodies of their dead and planted trees which have now grown to large proportions. Even these old trees show the marks of storms which have blown across the hill and have left broken branches and twisted trunks. �32 As nearly as can be learned, this old cemetery, which has been known as Oread,was opened in 1854 or 55,within a year after the town of Lawrence was founded. At the corner nearest the city are some evergreens which were planted by the late N.P. DEMING to mark the graves of his parents. Old Mr. DEMING loved trees and together with Chancellor MARVIN years ago planted the walnuts which have grown into the beautiful grove just north of the university buildings. The very large proportion of soldiers from the Third Wisconsin cavalry buried in the old cemetery is said to be due to the prevalence of an epidemic--Wi11iam CRUTCHFIELD says Cho1era--that was prevailing here while this regiment was in camp enroute to some more southerly point. Others admit the prevalence of disease but do not think it was cholera. Mr. EDWARDS and Mr. HUDDLESTON remember the unusual mortality among the Wisconsin men while the Third was temporarily here, but as stated, they do not agree with Mr. CRUTCHFIELD as to the cause. All the burials of the men from the Wisconsin regiment seem to have been made in the old cemetery, and more of them, in fact, than the old headstones disclose, because some of the bodies, none knows how many, have been taken up and sent East, and still others are in Oak Hill. The Wisconsin regiment did not have any fight while here, all are positive, and they are certain its mortality was caused by disease. Not a line of the original records about the old cemetery are in existence, so far as the Oak Hill cemetery officials 'and the old settlers know. The Rev. L.R. NICHOLS, who died in Lawrence in 1858 and was buried in the old cemetery and whose body is yet there, is described by William CRUTCHFIELD as "A young preacher, probably 21 years old, who did not have any pastorate, but 'preached around' here and there." He had not been ordained, Mr. CRUTCHFIELD thinks, but was a divinity student out getting experience. He died of a fever. Charles L. EDWARDS remembers distinctly the first death in Lawrence, and remembers seeing the funeral procession wind about the foot.and slopes of Mount Oread on its way westward. Mr. Edwards was not at the burial, but was very certain the interment was made in the old cemetery and that it was the first interment therein. The dead man was name~d POMEROY (from ANDRES history the name is Moses POMEROY)" and he was a near relative of S.C. POMEROY, afterwards United States senator from Kansas. David C. BUFFMAN, who is buried in the old cemetery, and who died September 17, 1856, was shot by men, probably "border Ruffians, II who robbed him of his horses while he was working±~ the field. He resisted, or at least protested, and was murdered in cold blood. He did not die at the time, but lingered, and was able to tell how he came to meet his death. This-incident Mr. EDWARDS remembers distinctly. Thomas W. BARBER, an uncle of O.P. BARBER, of Lawrence, died at a point on the highway four miles west of Lawrence, December 6, 1855, under the following circumstances; He and his brother Robert and Thomas PIERSON, brother-in-law of the BARBERS, were returning to their homes eight miles southwest of Lawrence, following the old California road. They had reached a point where their �33 route swerved from the California road toward the southwest when they saw at a distance to the northwest a party of men supposed by them to number a hundred or so. As they looked two of the three men rode away from the main body and "cutting across" intercepted them. The Lawrence men anticipated no trouble and did not run. As they came up to the two men one of the latter engaged the~ in conversation, and asked them where they were from. Thomas BARBER answered, "Lawrence." One of the two, a quite young man, then began to curse and said, "Why don't you fellows obey the law?" and pulling a pistol fired directly at Thomas BARBER's chest, and followed . it up with a shot aimed at Robert BARBER's groin. This second shot passed through the saddle seat and into the horse Robert BARBER was riding. All five then put spurs to their horses, riding directly away. from each other-one party eastward, the other westward. Robert BARBER, the only one of the Lawrence men armed, shot at the two retreating men several times, and it is thought he slightly wounded one of them. About a hundred yards west of where the shooting took place Thomas BARBER sank from his horse, saying he was shot. The others dismounted and Thomas died a few moments later. The slayer of BARBER was never identified. Thomas BARBER was born in 1814, and came to Kansas from New Paris, Ohio. Following is given the names and some of the data to be found on the stones: Caro1ita M., daughter of W. M. and M. L. BURHANS, July 25, 1868, aged 19 months At Rest, Jacob S., son of Absolom and Anna T. HOLCOMB, June 7, 1871, age 16 years. (This slab which stands erect has been used as a mark by hunters.) L. F. AHRBERG, June 12, 1865. L. M. HOLTZLANDER, Oct. 13, 1864. (This monument is leaning against a tree and the grave it formerly marked may have been opened.) A large stucco monument is marked with a copper slab upon which appeared originally in white letters the following inscription: "To the unknown dead Union Soldiers of the Civil war." A broken slab, with a hand pointing upwards, was marked: Frances M., wife ofJ.C. CUNNINGHAM, Aug. 12, 1864. "I know that my Redeemer liveth." Nearby are a large number of stones evidently furnished by the Federal government to mark the graves of soldiers. Simply the name and company is given and if one wishes further information there are somewhere the original rosters of the companies. Adam ARIS, Co. B. 1st. Wis. E.S. SMITH, Co. A. 1st. Wis.

These two stones, which bear the mark of Ech'lb'ry and Cribb LEAVENWORTH, evidently tell the sad story of two brothers called but two weeks apart. Margaret J. SWEEZER, Aug. 26, 1855, 2 years. Beside some large evergreens is a stone marked: - Martha GRAHAM, Mar. 11, 1858, Age 53. Louisa O. GRAHAM, Feb. 7, 1858, Age 17. "The Lord is my Shepherd I'll not want." Wife and Daughter of Jno. M. GRAHAM. James HALL, May 5, 1867. Age 54. At this grave is a locust tree nearly two feet in diameter and about it are a number of graves ~arked with ordinary stones. In the south-western part. of the cemetery are a lot of graves, no telling just how many, simply marked with the plain limestone pi~ked up in the cemetery and placed to mark the grave temporarily until a better mark could be secured. Those who placed their loved ones there have forgotten them and today there is probably no one who cares. Delia DILLARD, Died 1863. Age 73. A masonic insignia also marked the stone of John BERRY, Jan. 30, 1869. Age 25 years. "Meet me in Heaven" are the words above a carved hand holding a bouquet and below appears Samuel JONES, Feb. 5, 1868. Age 26. , In Memory of Francis KILLAM, May 25, 1857. Age 53. "Blessed' are Dead who die in the Lord." Mary Ann, Daughter of L.C. & E. PEET, April 10, 1857. Age 1 year. The best preserved grave and markings in the cemetery is the one which reads as follows:- Gatte. Carl G. RAU. Geb. 22 Mai 1827, Gest. 4 Nov. 1855. Gewidmet von der Wittwe Elise geb. MAIER, mit ihremkind. The stone is of solid granite and shows no wear while the four heavy iron posts connected with chains will stand for a hundred years to come. The best translation the writer could make is "Husband. Carl G. RAU born May 22, 1827, died Nov. 4, 1855. Erected by the widow, Elise born MAIER, with their child." In memory of Cornelius CAMPBELL Apr. 22, 1855. Age 56. is half buried. This stone �35 Thomas W. BARBER, born Feb. 22, 1814, died Dec. 6, 1855.

A stone upon which the name STEARNS and the date 64 could be made out was so deeply buried that the rest of the inscription could not be read. There is evidence of an old trail leading through the cemetery and Mrs. Paul R. BROOKS says that this road was open and used after the cemetery was abandoned, but was finally ordered closed. The grounds were not fenced until taken over by Mr. GWIN to be pastured by his goats. A concensus of the opinions of E. HUDDLESTON, William CRUTCHFIELD and Charles L. EDWARDS indicates pretty conclusively that the old cemetery which was deserted in 1865 was abandoned for the most part because it was comparatively inaccessible--much more so at least than the Oak Hill Cemetery. Much of the distance was up a stiff grade, and the new site proved so much more popular that after the new cemetery was opened internments out there practically ceased. The soil in the old cemetery is said to be for the most part not so fertile as in Oak Hill, and that fact had considerable influence in the abandonment. --LATER INFORMATION GATHERED IN 1939"":Alfred PEAKE.

No record of the location of Charles STARKWEATHER reports that the STARKWEATHER family was living over the ALLEN hardware store at the N.E. corner of Massachusetts and Seventh streets at the time of Quantrill's raid. Burials of the following members of the STARKWEATHER family were made in Pioneer cemetery. Mary E. MOORE, grandmother of Charles STARKWEATHER, was born in North Carolina, came to Kansas in April, 1863, died fall of 1872, aged about 80 years. John Noble STARKWEATHER, born in Vermont in 1828, came to Kansas in March, 1863, died in November, 1870. (Father of Charles STARKWEATHER) Oscar STARKWEATHER, born in Lawrence and died in 1868, age one year. Not a line of the original records about the old cemetery are in existence, so far as the Oak Hill cemetery officials and the old settlers knew. The date shown on the monument for Sarah PEAKE, Sept. 23, 1882, was the latest date to be found in the cemetery when Hastie compiled his Record of Cemeteries of Douglas County, Kansas, in 1939. This probably marks one of the last burials to be made in the nineteenth century in this cemetery. Burials were made again beginning in the 1960's.

Our membership means we are moving forward with great strides, and we welcome the new friendships, and the warm feeling that comes from working together. Our financial situation has never been better, enabling our society to undertake even more worthwhile projects. We now are incorporated, and have arranged for bulk mailing for our "Pioneers"·and Newsletters. It has been a busy six months of money-making projects. Our booth with the "Independence Day" celebration gained many memberships for us. Our bake sale at the Lawrence sidewalk bazaar brought together many of our members who not only donated "goodies" to sell, but endured the hot weather to work in the booth. Our workshop in September was a memorable success. With Arlene Eakle as our speaker, how could we fail? We all came away wishing we could hear more from this very knowledgeable lady. We have Hugh Stouppe and his daughter, Janet Payne, to thank, for the success of our booth at the Maple Leaf ~estival in Baldwin, they did a terrific job of organizing, which allowed us to become acquainted with many new people, and for the selling of our publications. A special thanks to Ramona Sedlak, and Maxine Hougland for,the garage sales which added over $450.00 to our bank account. This was a big job for these two hard working ladies. Honorable mention for Jane Wiggins who is responsible for our "Mini" workshop held the third Saturday afternoon of each month, at th~ Lawrence Public Library. This is a "help-day" for any member who wishes to attend. Jane is also responsible for our excellent Newsle.tter.. She is assisted by Zona Smith. This has been a very productive time for this society, but none of these events would have been possible without excellent board me~bers, committee chairman, and the many people who helped - each one a very important part of our society. Let's keep working together, and moving forward. Thanks to all for making the first half of this year a success.

Boy, what a buncQ" of b1g words. Let· s cut the red tape and $et r1ght down to what 1s MR. Whenever you sm1le. talk. or move a· muscle. a body funct10n takes place without your knowledge. The muscle creates Calc1um. In creat1ng calc1um. the mus:cle also develops heat. The heat 1s normally d1ss1pated by the body w1th no problem. e1ther ln a MH person or a non-MH person. So what ls the problem? The problem lles 1n the: MH person l:S.ng unknown to medical personnel. If a MH person rece1ves an lnhalatlonal anaesthetlc. used under normal condltlons. the anaesthetlc could falsely ask the body for more calclum. up to ).000 t1mes the normal amount. Thls causes a vast lncrease ln hea t. whlch lf not reversed. 1 s fa t a l . : Now I may ask. what 1s all thls med1cal talk dolng ln a genealoglcal publl'.ca.tl0n.'f Well. MH 1s a genea10g1cal' problem. Re search done by Dr. B. -.ftl'!J.. t,t .of Toronto. Canada, sho~s that her MR patlents trace thelr ancestors back to the Acadlan llne of DUPUIS.

I also have no formal educatlon beyond h1gh school. I th1nk thls 1s 1mportant to thls art1cle. I say thls because I may say someth1ng 1n th1s art1cle that mayor may not confllct w1th Dr. Br1tt.

I have talked w1 th varlous people, both lay and doctors. and have read various med1cal journal~ and MH pamphlets. It appears to me that MH 1s a product of ~ ethnlc group, w1th numerous Consangu1nous marr1ages. If th1s,be fact, then 1twould hold true w1th the 'descendants of Sylva1n DUPUIS and Franco1se LeBLANC. marrled ca. 1745. rehab. Assumpt10n 1767.

DEERCREEK-DIST-No.-48--~· L. There were at least two early schools in the Stull community before Kansas became a state. One was about one and one-haH miles south of Stull on the farm owned by August Kampschroeder. The other, dated about 1860, was two and one-haH miles southwest. of Stull near a rOck quarry on August Waiters' place. This was a two-room log cabin on a bluff at the foot of which was a well, and was a community undertaking taught by a parent or teacher paid by subscription. Children came to it from a good many miles .around; church and Sunclay school.also were held there with a Mr. Brown dOing the preaching and living in a house afterward occupied by Christy Petefish. The next schoolhouse was a frame building located about one-half mile west and one mile north of Stull on the southeast comer of what is now the farm of Wm Henry Jr. It was built by Peter Eberhart Sr., for the use of his own children, with a teacher hired and paid by him. A year or so later, John Damn Sr., and Jacob Hildenbrand offered to pay part of the expenses if their children . too, could go to this school. Other parents then asked for the same privilege and the enrollment thus increased. This school operated for at least five years. On August 1; 1879, E.S.

Trusplot was to return to the original estate, should its use for school purposes be terminated •. Mr. Eberhart's schoolhouse is assumed tei have been purchased by the district, and not being centrally located, was moved to this newly acquired site. This was done with a stump-puller and . horses. The building had to be anchored every fifty to one-hundred feet, winched forward far as it would go, then re-anchored further on and the process repeated as many times as necessary to get the job done. The task consumed two weeks. Apparently, education wasn't something to be rushed into. . When set on the new site, the schoolhouse faced east, ~d was furnished with walnut benches having at" least three pupils to each one. It was painted brown on the outside,and named' 'BroWn Jug" in consequence. However, the name was eventually discarded, the building painted white and re-named "Deer Creek, " for the little creek that flows nearby. An old record of 1886, shows the teacher's salary for that entire term was $210.00 and the cost of ,incidentals, $22:QQ.· _ . _ _ . _ __ _ ____ . ____ _ ' ', 'I. . -y'- -~- -- :" \ .I.

As we see it today, it is nothing but a small stream, hardly a rowboat can navigate on it. Many of us have seen the days when this river could rampage and vJipe out homes and many a crop land. VJith the lakes VJe now have, they keep this old river pretty \'/ell under control and we fear not of it flooding. There is a'very interesting story that has been passed down through the generations and also appeared in the first newspaper of Lecompton called ;Tb.~. Jecompton Union" in 1856 about a sidewheeler that navigated the Kansas river. At this time Mrs. Rachel Jane Todhunter, an early pioneer lady of Lecompton and some other ladies saw a side-wheeler called the ~Saerie QueenHtied up at the wharf. The ladies looked upon the beautiful deck of the side-wheeler and thought what a wonderful place to have a Ball. Mrs. Todhunter.was well acquainted v/ith tk. Geary, the governor of the Kansas Territory, so she and the ladies approached him and asked him to persuade the Captain of the boat to have a Ball that evening.on the boat. The Captain was agreeable, so the ladies hurried about the communi,ty spreading the vJord so everyone could prepare their costumes for the evening. The Captain readied the boat, the music was found and that evening the Ball was held. The ladies hadct,*~en their ball gowns out of their trunks and displayed their glittering attire for'the first time in the Kansas Territory. This was probably the first Ball he,ld in the Territory of Kansas. This shovJed the pioneers~ ability to contrive to have a wonderful time under such difficult circumstances-at that time. Another interesting article appeared in a later newspaper of Lecompton, called ,"The Kansas National ' Democrat' on Ivlarch 24, 1859 is as follows: -', \\The first trip of the season from Kansas City to this place via Kaw river VJas made by the Steamer"Silver Lake": Capt. vJilburn, on Monday last. It is a fine sternwhee1 steamer, capable of carrying 50 tons, and well calculated vIe think for the busine,ss of the river. Through the persuasions of our citizens, on Tuesday morning, the Captain went up the river as far as Topeka. We were informed by the Captain that some of the citizens of Lawrence endeavored to dissuade him from coming to this place, stating the river unnaiJigab1e. The Captain informs that the worst bar in the whole river, he found below Lawrence. We hope to see the~i1ver LakeUcontinue her trips regularly to this place and would urge upon our citizens the importance of extending to her a generous support.N Andther article in the same paper on May 12, 1859-~This week our wharf has been enlivened by the arrival of two steamboats, the GUS LINN and SILVER LAKE. The GUS LINN left Kan,sas City on the 10th instant, and reached here on the 12th, and then proceeded above as , far as Fort Riley. ~Je think that she will be able, as the river is in good boatable, order to reach that place. ' The, SILVER LAKE discharged all her freight here, and took on board a cargo of corn, and left for Kansas City.,It is the intention of the owners of these boats to run them the entire season up the Ka~, w~ich, from their light draught of water, vIe think they can. This enterprise, of navlg~t~ng the Kaw, should, and \"Je.have reason to believe will be warmly seconded b~ th~ cltlZens of the towns on the rlVer.

Tre~surer: I Sub~itted by Jane Wiggins, Lawrence, KS ._---_._---------------- --------- �"WAKARUSA Townshl p Boy Meets Girl In the spring of 1909 I met Hattie Mae ROSE. She had come to the ~rackett Rural School to take her ninth grade finals. She arrived on a horse equipped with a sidesaddle--the first I had ever seen. We got acquainted that day. Since she had to pass our place on her way to town, I also was able to see her occasionally then. Later on we sometimes went to the Baptist Church together on Sundays. From that point we began to take in an occasional show at the "Nickel", the first moving picture show west of the Mississippi River. After the show, we could be found at Wiedemann's Confectionary Shop",-' drinking hot chocolate topped with either whipped cream or ice cream, and for another f:ive cents, a bowl of oyster crackers to accompany it. Another thing about our early acquaintance that I shall never forget was rece~v~ng a valentine from Hattie. About this time Hattie joined the Baptist Church. Rev. D.C. BROWN was its pastor. I remember him particularly as being accustomed to riding out from Lawrence on his bicycle two Sunday afternoons each month to hold services in the Barker School House. We often attended and I still claim the Baptist Church as my own even though I never became a member of it. In the summer of 1910 I left home and went to work for S.M. GENTRY, a farmer who lived near enough to Hattie's home so that I could walk to see her frequently at her parents' home where she lived 'along with her four younger-not-too-angelic brothers. Cdurtship Via Horse and Saddle Hattie attended high school for one and one-half years, rooming with the Jay BOND family in Lawrence, but illness caused her to leave school and prevented her returning later, so 'she went to work as a clerk, first in the Housemen's Clothing Store, then at Barteldes Seed Store and later at the Kaw Valley Creamery. An incident occurred about 1912 that I recall vividly. Hattie was rooming at the Healey Home, 712 Kentucky Street, where several o,ther girls also stayed. One evening when I arrived by horseback to calIon Hattie, r was besieged by all the girls asking me to remain there for the night. I promptly refused until I learned that on the previous night a large black man had climbed through an open window on the porch into the room of one of the girls. He was frightened away by her screams. A call to the police only 1/2 block away brought a response thirty minutes later, and': to make sure their arrival was expected by everyone, they came with sir~ns blasting. So I consented to remain for the night on the porch. You never saw girls move so fast in preparing me a bed there. I tied my horse to a tree in Central Park, and fortunately no one came along in the night and turned him loose. Courtship Via Horse and Buggy One spring day in 1912, I walked to Lawrence, rented a horse and buggy for ,$1. 50, picked up Hattie, drove eight miles southwest of Lawrence to the farm: where my brother Bill and his wife Myrtle lived, and spent the evening there. On the way back to town the weather changed and we liked to freeze. I took Hattie back to her rooming house, returned the' horse to his stable, �97 walked the five miles back to my place of employment. This warmed me as the day which had started out warm and balmy had turned bitter cold to the discomfort of both of us. Later'.that spring I moved back to myoId home with my father as failing health forced him to sell the home. We moved to the farm in Pleasant Valley where my brother Bill was living. Later that summer I bought brother Bill out and my father and I established a partnership. During this time Hattie had returned to her parental home fourteen miles from me, so I usually drove to the ROSE home on Saturday nights and remained there until Sunday night. Once in awhile it was nearer Monday morning when I got home. Often I would fall asleep in the saddle and let my horse take me home. On one of these occasions, Hattie and I started out early on Sunday m'orning for a family reunion to be held at the home of Hattie's uncle and aunt, Jake and Nancy C~lliINGS,who lived eight miles southwest of Stull. By the time I had made that sixteen~ile trip plus fourteen miles back to my place, I had had a day! Start of Our Married Life After about six years of getting "acquainted", Hattie and I were married on April 28, 1915. It was wild crabapple time, all in bloom. The wedding took place at the ROSE home with Rev. O.C. BROWN, the pastor. Several close relatives were there. We left for our new home--borrowing a pillow and walking around the hill to our future home. I still live there. , Hattie's maternal grandparents, Joseph H. and Martha (RANDOLPH) HARRISON had settled here in 1854 and had homesteaded this farm. The house nestles co'sily just under the brow of a hill on the sunny southern slope. Much of the lumber for it was hauled from Leavenworth by ox-cart, and so well was it built by its owner-builder that it stands today in good condition. Three generations were born in this house: Lucy HARRISON (ROSE), Hattie ROSE (WIGGINS), and our daughter Elizabeth WIGGINS (SANDERS). The day before our wedding, we bought our furniture from the C.J. ERICKSEN Company--a cookstove, kitchen cabinet, bed springs, mattress, dresser, buffet, oak rocking chair, round oak table, and 6 oak chairs at $1..75 each. That is all I can remember--the total for all was $125.00 delivered. Mrs. ERICKSEN took off $5.00 because we paid cash. With the $5.00, we bought things at Frank STRONG and Clark PRINGLE's grocery store--pepper, salt, spices, sugar, flour, lard and other items. The cash we paid. for the furniture was borrowed from Jack KELSEY, a cattle buyer, also a friend. I still have the round oak table and oak rocking chair. A few days after we were married, we we~e shivareed by ten men. When they arrived we were sound asleep but not for long! One man set his shotgun on the window sill near our bed--BOOM--we were not long getting up! We thought we had to dress up, which took time in the near dark room. The men.said, "If.you don't come out soon, we are coming in after you!" A few days later some of the men came to our place. They took up a collection and ,bought us six nice silver spoons. We were shivareed again by the women and kids. Next about our eats--we had milk, made our own butter and cottage cheese, did not have much meat.·We often had tuna salad. Hattie would put aster leaves in a bowl to make it look nice. We had the aster bed in an old corn planter wheel. When bringing our mules by the aster bed from the pasture, they ate some of the asters and made Hattie very unhappy. Often I would hum, "Asters by the brookside make asters in the brook , " which never failed to get a rise out of her. �98 We took in less than $150.00 the first year. We had no telephone bills, no lights, no gas. We sold some cream--got a check for 5l¢, butterfat l7¢ per pound. We raised some potatoes. Hattie baked bread--the first was a dandy, later she became a champion. Hattie was a good cook, an expert at making sour cream raisin pie, using lard to make the pie crust. We had a few chickens, enough 'eggs to get by. Fried eggs good and brown are good eating if you are hungry. I still would like to have some sour cream raisin pie, also some raw fried potatoes crusty. We had one cow giving milk, two heifers to be fresh later, several small heifers. In 1916, we had more ground to farm. It was a wet year, we planted the corn the third time. It was getting late by that time and Jack Frost finished it. The second year we butchered a hog--had meat, lard and also a telephone. The first year we were married we did not have meat very often. We would buy 25 cents worth of round steak and have brown gravy--a treat. We raised a few chickens, tried to have one big enough to eat by the 4th of July. Sometimes it would not be too big--maybe two pounds. We also had h,omemade ice cream and angelfood cake. We were poor, but happy. ,One time my mother-in-law brought a fried young squirrel to a picnic we had. It sure was good. Now we won't even eat one. Mr. ROSE always h,ad a big garden--winter onions, surely good in early spring. Also parsnips, and some years when cabbage was plentiful, they would make a barrel of kraut. I~ was kept in the smokehouse. They gave us some when digging it out (it was frozen) and surely good raw. They also buried apples. The ROSE boys and I would run our arms back in a hole and get an apple--sometimes the apple would taste like the ground, but good. Hattie loved flowers and had lots of them. She enjoyed the clubs she belonged to and especially the Lawrence Flower Club for which she helped judge flower shows several times. We planted many flowers and trees throughout the years. This year I counted 43 different flowers and 37 trees and bushes that bloom annually on our place. In the spring, I have a "Flower Day" and invite the ladies in the neighborhood to come and enjoy the flowers a~d have refreshments with me. I look forward to this each year. I James Blaine Wiggins November 23, 1983 James B. Wiggins, the son of Ida Luona KEENER and Frank Dudley WIGGINS, was born November 23, 1893, on a farm outside of Lawrence, Ks. The home where he was born and grew up is still standing--the stone house loc.ated just west of the Virginiq Inn on Highway 40. It now houses the offices of' Heritage Realty, and is co-owned by a great granddaughter of Frank WI~GINS, Mrs. Sandra GARBER. Hattie Mae ROSE was the daughter of Lucy Jane HARRISON and Siegel Albert ROSE. She was born March 24, 1893, Wakarusa Township, and died Ja~uary 9, 1952 at Kansas City, Kansas. Jim and Hattie had two daughters: Martha Elizabeth (Mrs. Charles SANDERS) and Bernice Doris (Mrs. James KNOX). Jim recently celebrated his 90th birthday and still lives on the farm in northwest Douglas County where Hattie and he started their married life.

"Yes", replied his prosaic friend, "but the continued marriage rate suggests that it is still the home of the brave." --The American Legion Weekly .--.-- \() �I I I II ,I ,I J I _. I ""'\ ~ i Llttle dld we suspect what was ln store for us when-Paullne ELNIFF and I declded one day last fall to undertake the task of r abstractlng early Douglas County dlvorce records. In the flrst place. we dld not reallze what an lmmense project lt would be. There belng no lndex solely for dlvorce cases. lt was flrst necessary to slft through the Index of Clvll cases located at Spencer Research Llbrary on the Unlverslty of Kansas campus where many of the older court records are kept. We were looklng for cases ln whlch both plalntlff and defendant had the same surname. Then. armed wlth names. Case numbers and our natural curloslty. lt was down to the storage basement at the Judlclal and Law Enforcement Bulldlng where the old case flIes of Cl vll and Crlmlnal cases are stored ln metal ~<-;'. cablnets. Some of the flIes had surely not been opened slnce they were placed there a century or more ago judglng from the amo~t of dust on them. As we read each case. we were struck wlth the polgnancy of partlcular stQrles. amazed at the contemporary nature of others, but m~~nly surprlsed by the wealth of genealoglcal lnformatlon avallable. After readlng numerous cases. we came to the concluslon that dlvorce records are probably the most o(tlsunderstood and least utlllzed records avallable to genealoglsts. Why? Because we do no usually even conslder that one of our ancestors may have been dl vorced. Just thlnk about your own famlly tree. Sltuatlon I: Your great-grandmothermarrled your great-grandfather and 11ved together happlly untl1 death dld them part. You have seen thelr marrlage certlflcate whlch shows your great-grandmother's malden name. There ls nothlng to make you suspect that she may have been prevlously marrled and dlvorced. So, "Why check dlvorce records?" Answer: Our experlence readlng early Douglas County dlvorce cases has taught us that many of the women marrled flrst uslng thelr malden name, got a dlvorce ~ a return of thelr malden name, and marrled someone f!1lse uslng thelr malden ruune agalnL (Some women ;;"'o~$n:::;.the other· hand • requested that .the·!S~~~:;,~(~ tl:J:~Jr flrst husban<i be ~~stored to ":' them at the', tlme of dlvorce from1 thelr second husband). Moral: Check . dl voroe' record.s· in" yoUr ance-stor l-s- county justln 'case there was a prevlousmarrlage and dlvorce. 'fh.tuatlon II. You know that one of your great-grandfath~rs was married twlce, but you and your famlly have always assumed that hls flrst wife dled shortly after marrlage and he then remarrled. So, "Why check dlvorce records?" Answer: You may f1nd as we dld that many men were marrled a flrst tlme, dlyorced a year or two later, and then remarr1ed ln a year or so to someone els~. Even though some of the dl vor oed men' s bl0graphlcal sketche.s, t~."a:;::<?c:)l¢~Y::... hlstory revealed a flrst wlfe In'' some ln$tances, there was no ':ment~·.c:m that he was dlvorced from her, leavlng descendants to assume that the first wlfe died.

".;1" - - - - - - - ---------- ""'- I �Divorce records continued: l._ . ______ ~2-l -:- ---::-----.~~-:--.~ - ------~-- -~.- Situation III: You are absolutely sure that there are no divorces in your family, so "Why check early divorce records?" Answer: While it may be true that you are unlikely to find an ancestor who was divorced, it is quite pro:pable that one or more ~ ot your ancestors may have been subpoened in a divorce case as witness for.either the plaintiff or defendant. If so, your ancestor's depositia'lmay,give innumerable facts about himself arid otherrelatlves. ·.I~tor:a;hc::'~'Ch'eck early divorce records,;;-fol!.::~l),Qssi ble mention of your ancestor no matter fr9m what social level he came. _,~~ We found deposit10ns of witnesses from every economic and social level of the communi ty., in the Douglas County divorce records. NOW ••• lf we have convinced you t9 cons1der checking divorce records, here are some of the treasures wh1ch may await you: Name of the plaintiff and defendant; the date and place of their, marriage; wife's maiden name; children's names and ages; grounds for the divorce (if adultery-sometimes giving the name of the other person involved), (1f b1gamy-somet1mes gi1V1ng name and marr1age date of f1rst spouse), (1f cruelty or neglect-somet1mes g1ving dates and places of incidents 'of phys1cal or verbal abuse); military serv1ce; somet1mes real and personal property. occupations, ages, names of other relatives; letters or other papers in defendant's own writing answering allegations; newspaper notices of the pending divorce; names of sheriffs and other off1cials; and many other items of interest relat1ng to customs of the times and local h1story. In one:'~trouQYll~ng letter from a soon-to-be divorced woman of Douglas Courity"tc{'the Clerk of Court in 1864. we read the following: 1f it must be so i will g1 ve him a bill of d1 vorce. but ,:. ,';.." . would rather 11ve and enjoy l1fe happily with h1m than do ",. soc~,and lf the1r is any mercey in heaven and just1ce in law 1 hope i shall recelve my just dues." if • • • Below we begin the flrst installment of Abstracts of Divorces in Douglas County., 1864:;1884.

HIDING PLACE ,---- ANCESTORS _'.. OE~OST II h . . .-: If you've traced an ancestor to the' East coast of the United States and the trail has gone cold without a clue as to where the family came from. there is a strong possibility that they or their parents emigrated from Bermuda. Bermudians have been establishtng new family lines in the United States and Canada, since Bermudars colonization in 1612. Although every conceivable English name that. exists in the U.S. also exists in Bermuda. your chances of conn~eting with a Bermuda ancestor are particularly good if you are searching for a name somewhat less common in this country, or even rare.

According to an article in the Journal WOEld dated Oct 7 1937, the iron with which the jail was constructed was put on the steamboat. "Izetta" enroute to Lawrence but the "Izetta" became stuck on a sand bar at De Soto and the iron had to be unloaded and brought the rest of the way by wagons. According to the Republlca'n Journal. Lawrence. KS. Apr 27 1871 issue, a reporter who visited the jail in April of 1871 described a cellon the NE corner of the 2nd floor as IIdirty and squalid". Although the cell did contain a chair and desk, the mattress was ~escribed as being only one inch in thickness. Some of the prisoners whom the reporter saw on his visit were: Dr. John MEDLICOTT, charged with the murder of of Mr. I.M. RUTH ;"'the notorious I Cinda. Alex MONTGOMERY; SPRIGGS, the crazy man; a Folish lunatiC; two vagrants. one petty larceny (six months) and one attempt to kill (six months) ." The Douglas County courthouse was built in 1903 on the S.E. corner of Massachusetts and 11th St. A few years later the jail was located in a building :;.;::I?;.~':ot the courthouse where it remained until the construc't; tion of the new J"udicial and Law Enforcement Building adjacent to South Park in 1976.

MEDLICOTT was born about 1841 1n Ireland (or was of Irlsh descent)\ He was reared ln Marletta, Ohl0, served in the Army ln a W. Vlrglnla Reglment, wasdlsmlssed ln 1864,/-and studled Med1clne ln Clnnclnatl, Ohl0. In 1868, he marrled Mrs.- SarahE-. -DOYLE, a: wldow, "many years hls senlor" at Hagerstown, Maryland. They moved to Lawrence soon after and he opened a practlce at hls resldence. He was a member of the Eplscopal church. In 1871, hls parents were stll1 llvlng ln Mar1etta, Ohl0, he had one marrled slster ln Pennsylvanla. two ~rled slsters ln Kentucky (one brotherIn-law named WATSON, one named JONES) and one unmarrled slster ln Clnclnnatl, Ohl0. Hls In-laws, parents of Mrs. Sarah DOYLE MEDLICOTT had dle~ suddenly a few years before In.Maryland. Mr.s. Isaac M. RUTH (Ann Catherlne VOULLAIRE RUTH. also known as "Kate" or "Kltty") was sald to have been a French Creole. born ln the . South about 1836. Her malden name ls unknown, but her mother's name ln 1871 was "Mrs. MURRAY". ~j's-.-RUTH-was des·crlbed. as a- beautlful and well-educated woman who could speak several languages and had muslcal abillty. She went to St. Louls about 1853. where she marrled a young lawyer, Seymour VOULLAIRE, who afterwards became Dlstrlct Attorney of St. Louls. They ¢arrled, had s1x chlldren and remalned together at least ten years untll she became lnvolved with Mr. I~'M • .__IiUTH~ who was at that tl~e e1 ther a reporter for the Mlssouri fuu2(u~1i~:, '::_ ;,. 11can or a postal worker. Subsequently there was a shootlng lncla.ent �179 between Mr. RUTH ,and Mr. VOULLAIRE. both belng wounded. Soonafter. the VOULLAIRE's were dlvorced and on 29 Jan 1868 Mr. RUTH and MIS. VOULLAIRE were marrled ln St. Louls. It wasn't long before they ~, moved to Lawrence. where they 11ved wlth four of her chl1dren. (The VOULLAIRE chl1dren declded to adopt the name DeSPANGH. whlch was thelr maternal grandfather's surname. He was supposedly a French nobleman). It was ln Lawrence that Mrs. RUTH met Dr. MEDLICOTT. Isaac M. RUTH had llved ln Lawrence slnce the 1850's. He drove a mllk wagon for qulte a few years before he went to St. Louls. Hls father's name was also Isaac and he had at least one brother. named Davld. Hls flrst wlfe was a Mrs. BENNETT. a dl vorcee whom he probably marrled ln Kansas. She later dled suddenly. At the tlme of the Clvll War he went to St. Louls and became a clerk ln the Post Offlce (or a reporter for the Mlssourl Republlcan). After' hls death and autopsy. he was burled ln Westchester. Pennsylvanla. THE TRIALS_, E-~ Dr. MEDLICOTT had been ln the Lawrence jal1 fo~nearlyjhalf a year when hls trlal was moved to Garnett. Kansas (Aiiderson Co~J. Due to wldespread publlclty. lt was felt that he would not get a falr trlal ln Douglas County. ~WLRepy,bllcan Joy,[ni-l. a Lawrence newspape,r. gave detalled coverage of the trlal from Oct lO'to"'Dec 9 .~ :t$2f: Dozens of wltnesses from Lawrence and elsewhere"were'cal1ed. to' te-sti'fy,' Includlng such promlnent people as Gov. ROBINSON. John HUTCKINGS and Samuel WALKER. Doctors were called to testlfy about the morphlne found ln Mr. RUTH's body. (I t was reported that there was so much polson ln hls body that flles on the sheet thrown over hls body were polsoned and hundreds of them fell dead on the floor). Nelghbors suggested that Dr. MEDLICOTT may have polsoned a black woman and several cats as an experlment a few months before Mr. RUTH I S death. Much lnformatlon was glven about the llfestyle and hablts of the ' RUTH and MEDLICOTT families. Henry JOHNSON (allas Wm.

How he :spent the remainlng years of ...hls_life /' 1s not known. . .'~ But the f1nal chapter of Mrs. RUTH's life is no mystery. This woman, with "eyes black as coal emitting sparks that 19n1 te the t1nder of a suscept1ble heart" went to New Orleans where she met (and married?) Mr. KELLEY, an agent of a steamship line, had a son, Paul and moved wlth them and her other children to New York City about 1882. Twelve years after the RUTH murder ln Lawrence, Kansas, a couple was found dead in a murder-sulcide ~t an apartment buildlng on 22nd St. ln New York C1 ty. At first the~bo~l:~!!rwere ldentified as those of Horace B. SHEPARD and h1s w1fe •. But ln a few days the truth became known. The woman was none other than Ann Cather1ne VOULLAIRE RUTH. identified by her son, Belmont DeSPANGH. Unknown to her children and present husband(?), she had been living a double life as Mrs. KELLEY and Mrs. SHEPARD. It was believed that Mr. SHEPARD. a yound man in his 20's wlth a gentle manner and from a very flne family of Saybrook. Conn •• had recently learned of her past and that he had kllled her and himself out of shame or fear. Hls fam1ly. when informed of the tragedy, was devastated with grief. The former Mrs. RUTH was to be buried in Greenwood" cemetery. New Yorko:C~ty,. It was said that ::Ohis woman with the coal-blaCk eyes and vivacious temperament had "ruined four men".

Second. I lost near the same tlme. but a few days later. a valuable mare rode by a young man. the particulars of whlch I know.,nothlng further than his report. He sald she fell and killed herself. I have not seen or heard of the man for three years past. These two horses I drove from Indlana. and they were worth there $150 each. and more here. Thlrd, I loaned to Mr. LOWRY a mule to rlde durlng the winter of 1856. I went to Lawrence for her once and she was gone to Leavenworth. he did not know who had her. She was taken from him again and rode to Fort Scott. to organize the people for detence, & etc. Durlng this trip she was tied out to a tree over night 1n the snow several times with nothing to eat. and somt1mes travelled all da~without food. so I was told. When she returned to Lawrence. she was sick and never recovered. she lived a few months and died. She was a large mule. 16 hands hlgh. three'''years- old. coming four: I paid $175 for her in Missouri. Fourth. I lost a large red ox. which I believe was killed and eaten by the free-State army in Lawrence. in August. 1856. One of my neighbors. Ell HUDDLESTON. told me he thought he helped to dress him. It was common then to drive in cattle and kill them. Thlsc'ox was worth i50. ) Fifth. I lost a heifer which was kllled and eaten. A young man who has slnce worked for me helped to do 1 t: His name is Henry C. CARPENTEB. He 1s not in the Territory now. and I do not know where he ls. ,She was worth $25. The evidence substantiat1ng these claims is on file with General STRICKLER During the sUlDlller of 1856. while the free-State army was encamped near my house. a few days previous to the at~acks on Franklin. Fort Saunders. and Titus's fort. and for several days after. I was forced by circumstances and by my sense of duty to feed many men. My provision and grocery bill was three hundred dollars for these expenses. I was forced into the position of defending the country. and I was obliged to do it or run. G.W. HUTCHINSON is my witness'~ere also Captain BELL. and Dr. ROOT, and many others. There was no time from May tll1 September, 1856. that I d1d not have from two to three sick persons to take care ot, made sick. I believe, by exposure and hardship in defence of the Territory.

The HASKIN family who left two'months ago for Oklahoma is back again and has taken 'possession of the HARBAUGH farm near the river. They started from here. with two light teams and went allover the territory and when they could find no place like BISMARCK, they all gottogether one night at dark and said. "See here suppose we all journey northward to a colder climate." No sooner were these words spoken then all the family together arose and agreed to start at the dawn of day for a land that is fairer than Oklahoma. , An upper boy, a son of the late Dan BANKER, aged about 9 years turned in one day last week to Aunt Sibley WALKER for a home where he now'is unt1;.l a home is found for him.

About half way I between Lawrence and Lecompton thel',\were overtaken by _jLANE and\fALKEB., who were g~ing up to Lecompton to ::,:l. attend to some bus1nes~ at the Land Offlce. ~. .~, Some of the mob at that place ~had threatened, lt was rumored, to hang LANE lf he ever came there.

"Let's hang hlm" but there was nothlng at all of the serlous character of a mob. and the party rode along wlthout lnterruptlon to the Land Offlce. Slxty or seventy men stood around ln front of the offlce and seemed to be havlng a parley among themselves but no one attacked LANE nor was vl01ence threatened. Several frlends came up, however. and had ~ a whlspered conversatlon wlth hlm and advlsed hlm not to stay there as he certalnly would be attaeked.

It turned out afterward that lt was only the result of a drunken brawl, wlth whloh polltlos had nothlng whatever to do. The man had been stabbed and the perpetrator of the orlme had not at that tlme been found.

A stlll more amuslng and lmpresslve clrcumstance whlch the Presldent recalled with twlndllng eyes and an lnfectlous laugh, was that the Sherlff had ln the room ln whlch the magistrate sat all the prlsoners under hls charge.

The membership has doubled and continues to grow. Our finances were boosted through a booth at the Sidewalk Bazaar last summer and three rummage sales. Our library, housed in the Lawrence Public Library, continues to grow. I extend thanks to all who made these achievements possible. We have had a variety of guest speakers, as well as speakers from our own group. These included: Arlene Eakle - Workshop; Ronald Bremer - Seminar; Jim Martin - "Genealogy in General;" Don Hensen "Incorporation;" Sarah Judge - "Genealogy Fever;" Joyce Hensen "Value of a Good Newsletter;" Edna Welling - "Mormon Records;" Helmut and Ursulla Huelsbergen - "German Records;" Robert Burt "S ons of the American Revolution;" and Dale Nimz - slide show on "Old Houses in Lawrence." I, too, joined the ranks of speakers, glvlng sessions on "Genealogy, How to Begin," and on IIImmigration, Naturalization and Service Records. In addition, I spoke at a symposium in St. Joseph, Missouri, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the National Archives, on IIResearch in Court-_ houses and Alternative Sources," and gave a repeat performance on this for the Jefferson County Genealogical Society. It was also my . privilege to speak toa local senior citizens' group on family history in general. 1I We increased public awareness of our Society by having a booth at theLawrence Independence DaysCelebration and at the Maple Leaf Festival in Baldwin. In addition, newspaper updates regarding our cemeterytombstone project continue to interest the public. The logo adopted this year for wear onshir-ts or jackets has also created a visual awareness of the Society's presence in Douglas County. Thanks to our fine editor, we ~ere able to publish four excellent issues of liThe Pioneer," and always on time! Our Newsletter staff kept not only members, but also other societies, informed regarding our activities. The year also included a trip to Lecompton and Lane University, a Christmas party and covered dish dinner, incorporation of the Society, arrangements for bulk mailing, copying records, continuation of the many facets- of the cemetery-tombstone project, work wi th the 1875 census, and development of five-generation charts. A note of sadness invaded our IIgenealogy family" this year through th: death of three members: Hazel Lee Simmons, Terry Koder, and Ollve Stouppe. They- will be sorely missed by all of us. My thanks to each of you for your part in our many achievements during the past year, not the least of which-are the friendships which have developed as we worked together. Let's continue the good work so that the coming year will be even more rewarding. Sincerely, �2 f } . --------- -- i --~--- -, OLIVE L. STOUPPE August,. 18. 1984 ---_ ~ EDITOR t§ LETTER I. I ..

OUR PAST "Sometime in the early part of the Nineteenth Century, and somewhere in the state of Kentucky, two weddings occurred at two different times and places. Our interest still centers in those weddings ~ -_T~e ,first was that of Solomon PAINTER and Mary ADAMS. There were~'-rour children born to this couple: Samuel PAINTER, Sophia PAINTER ~ Hannah PAINTER and Isabelle PAINTER. Since there is no one here but us, I will say that Solomon PAINTER belonged to the poorer' class of easy g01ng Kentucky far,~ers. In these days I fear they might be classed as poor wh1tes or Hill B11l1es. Sophia PAINTER.married Eldredge HUGHES and emigrated to Missouri; Hannah PAINTER married Samuel HAMILTON and lived in Indiana; Isabelle PAINTER married a deaf and dumb man named DaVid ARNETT; and they also liv~d in Indiana. Some of the children of those families came to Missouri after the Civil War. Whenever you meet anyone wearing the naine of HUGHES, HAMILTON or ARNETT, go a lit~le easy and treat them with consideration for they may be. a dear relative. . The other wedding was that of Matthias VINKIRK or VANKIRK as it was called in after years, and Elizabeth WILSON. She was a distant relative of Daniel BQONE. Hence our fighting blood. They belonged to the well-to-do farming class and--if you please--lived in a hewed, double log house and owned a very valuable negro named Dave. Now please don't tell anyone but there were sixteen children in this family. I am not sure whether there were five boys and eleven girls or s1x boys and ten girls. Two of that large fanily are still :. living at this date; Mrs. Mary KIMES, age n1nety~three years, of' Holton, Kansas and Mrs. Adelia STONER, age n1nety-one, of Youngstown Illinois. . " There were so many in the family they were not g1 ven double,' names; or .In~yhap 1 t was not the custom then. The names of the boys 'THE PIONEER---Douglas Co.

The 'girls ,names~:: were: Sally. Nancy. Deborah. Mary. Adella. Ann. Amella. Kltty Ann and Rebecca. The two last mentloned dled ln early chl1dhood. Kltty Ann dled from burns recelved by her clothlng catchlng flre. Two others dled ln lnfancy. As thelr names are gone from my memory I eannot tell thelr sex as ln those days, the names told the story. Among the names,acqulred by the marrlage of the daughters, we have HAWKINS, PAINTER, BECKNER, KIMES, STONER, PERRY and TRACY. When you meet up wlth those names be on your guard and best behavlor for reasons glven above. After the 'death of Matthlas VINKIRK the famlly moved to Illlnols and nearly all except the PAINTERS grew qulte well-to-do or wealthy. And now comes a thlrd weddlng and the one ln whlch we are vltally lnterested: That of Samuel PAINTER, only son of Solomon and Mary PAINTER, and Nancy VINKIRK, second daughter of Matthlas and Ellzabeth VINKIRK. Thls weddlng took place the aforementloned, hewed, double log house on the seventh of January, elghteen hundred and forty ln the presence of three hundred guests. In The brlde had attalned the rlpe age of fourteen years, elght and one-half months. The gro:om was twenty three. They began thelr home llfe ln Kentucky; moved to Indlana and after one and one-half years there wen~ to the then sparsely settled, wlld reglon of Ililnols. They stayed there twenty-flve years and dld thelr share ln subdulng and peopllng that part of our country., They then moved to Mlssourl just after the Cl vl1 War and helped ln reconstruc.t16n:~of that state. In elg~t~en seventy-slx they moved to Kansas where they spent the remalnder of thelr 11ves. Samuel PAINTER dled at the age of elghtynlne years and elght months and Nancy PAINTER at the age of elghtyfour years and four months. Now I hope there are no eaves droppers around for I must tell the palnful .truth. There were twelve chlldren ln thls faml1y, four boys and elght glrls. The eldest, ,James Henry PAINTER, who became known ln adult 11fe as the Rev.J.H. PAINTER, was born ln Kentucky. All the rest were born lz;t I ll,lnols~' , One, boy ,Thomas Albert, and glrl, Adella Evellne, dled ln early chlldhood; whl1e an lnfant daughter llvedbut a brlef two hours and dled wlthout recelvlng a name. James Henry PAINTER marrled Katharlne CARTER and they were the parents of one boy and five girls. Four glrls are now 11vlng. For hls second wlfe he marrled Mrs. Nannle R. PIPER, who survives hlm~ Mary Ellzabeth PAINTER marrled James PHILlIPS. She dled at the age of sixteen leaving an infant daughter. She. is Dora King SPAWR and is still livlng. John William PAINTER married Maggie LOWER. There .\'~r.---­ were three boys and six glrls; three boys and four girls are living, Eliza Jane PAINTER married Jackson BENNETT.

REDDEN. Sec. State Board of Health. Dear Slr, i I . I I regret that the reports of deaths recelved during the last year are so Incomplete as to render t~ose that 'have been reoelved practlcally worthless. By comparing the burlal permits that were lssued by the olty olerk durlng the year 1886 wl th the reports of deaths made to thls office', I find the defect much greater than I had supposed. Instead of an Improvement In the mortuary reports durlng the year 1887. as was expected, I doubt whether SO per cent have been reported. A few physlclans who are In actlve praotlce have entlrely Ignored the law, and have not made· any reports of eIther deaths or birthsi while others have made partlal reports. The reports of births and marriages are more complete than durlng the prevlous year, yet they are not perfeot. The law requ1r1ng reports of oontaglous and 1nfectious dlseases to be made to the County Health Offloer at onoe by the physio1an In attendanoe. has lnno instance been observed. . I - Under these circumstances. I can only report my own observat10ns, and facts derl ved from 1nqulry and oonstan't watohfulness. Measles. mumps and whooplng cough have appeared In the oounty at different polnts. but In suoh a mlld form as to requlre very llttle medloal attentlon. Intermlttent and remlttent fevers have prevalled less than usual. We have had no small-pox or small-pox exoltement. hence no vacclnatlng has been done. A few cases of scarlet fever have been reported. but none fatal I It is posslble some or all may have been measles. Many Cases of death, due to oonsumptlon, and oancer In Itsvarlous torms, have occurred; cases of the latter have been unusually numerous •. Whlle we have not had any dlptheretio epldemlc. It has appeared In dlfferent tamilies, in varIous parts of the county. at varlous times durlng the year, wlth fatal results In numerous Instances. And the fact that It has been more tatal In rural dlstrlcts than In the ctty. would seem to Indl cate that its cause was due to impure water •••The Increasin~ frequency of diphtheria. with its tatal results. often strangling its vIct.ms in the most horrId manner, should guarantee the most thorough inVestigatIon. . For nearly two years we have had more or lesstyphold fever'constantly; durlng last. year It had almost entlrely abated, but early In July It appeared at several polnts in the city of Lawrence, also in the rural distrIcts, and has prevailed wlth unusual fatality. During ~he present month, deaths due to this cause have ooourred In Lawrence, and In at least flve townships outsIde the oity. Where the water that was used for drinklng pUrposes was examined, it was found to be impure. I. therefore reaffirm my views. which were expressed In former reports. that the typhoid fever wh1ch has prevaIled in this oounty was due to the use ot Impure water. If there Is any movement In the dIrection of better sanitation ••• I shall be glad to cast my mite In that directIon. ,. N. SIMMONS, M.D. \ .N.. SIMMONS.

"A Kansas edltor. llke all other ·editors. we suppose, ls··gilad occaslonally to get out of slght and hearlng of exchanges, types, presses, composltors, devlls, and all, and enjoy a day amld other scenes, even at the rlsk of belng called upon to make a speech or respond to a toast. At least, such was our feeling, as, on last S$.t.~day mornlng, we took a seat beslde the drl ver, on board a fourhonse wagon, containing the "Lawrence Cornet Band, lien route for bLINTON. Our way was up the valley of the Wakarusa and, as usual, as soon as we forgot our editorlal charge, we were longlng for a quarter-section of that splendld_9.ottom sweeplng back on to the upland just enough to glve us a 'good buildlng site. We were ready to shout, "A farmer's life is the .l,.fe for me, sir." And then, as we gazed upon those broad fertlle 'meadows, wlth the waving grass, we could not help thlnking of our boyhood days, when, tolilng amld the hliis ,,." and stumps, and rocks of " old Steuben," in New York, we spent tlme and labor enough to have made a farm here as rlch and beautlful as any New -York. can boast. -.The Valley of the Wakarusa resembles very much the far-famed ~ Valley of the Genesee, ln Western New York. It is full as wlde,' Ls as good solI, and sweeps back wltha gentle ascent to the high-rolling prairie. Indeed, had it not been for the lack of large farmhouses and fenced flelds, we could easlly have lmagined ourself on the Genesee flats below Genesco. We saw some flne flelds of corn thls slde of CLINTON, some contalning we should judge. from twenty to forty acres. CLINTON, THE TOWN Llke a great many other towns in Kansas, CLINTON 1s as yet, more ideal tl1an actual. Tl'l~ town is laid off on a couple of quarter sections of land adloining ~soUth~~,or_~tp.~e town of BLOOMINGTON). Some . trouble or dispute about the tltle of the latter town, caused, I -p~'lleve the laying out of CLINTON. A well~filled store forms already a part of the future village, and a steam mill is to be shortly erected. The locatlon ls very pleasant. and is backed up by a f1ne... country. The CELEBRATION was held in an adjolnlng grove. Abo'ut eleven o'clock the processlon formed at the store aforesald, and 'Under escort of the band, proceeded to the place of assembling. There was a large attendance, some flfteen hundred, I should judge, and in all sorts of v.ehicles, from good SUbstantial ox-teams to covered carrlages and gay horses. The ladles and bables formed well on to half the audlence.--a good.lndlcation thls of peace and prosperlty. Our Kansas ladies have not yet learned that important lesson of arlstocratlc high llfe. 'that lt is more proper for a lady to carry ln her arms a nasty poodle-dog than a sweet -and smiling babe. May they never learn ~ ~ ~ -." I itL ". ' The ORATION.--Now,dear reader, learn a lesson of the danger of allowlng your name to be used as a publlc speaker. We had observed our name on some large posters for thls celebratlon, but amld the array of Generals, Judges-," etc., wl th whlch 1 twas assoclated, we had culated on getting off 'wlth some "remarks ," occupylng say bout;'>fi,f:t;een or· twenty mlnutes.

TOASTS.--After dlnner, (It was a coldwater dlnner. reader,) came a goodly number of toasts wlth approprlate responses. We can't remember all of them, nor the names of near all the speakers. and as lt would appear lnvldlous to mentlon a portlonionlY. we wll1 only ", say. that the toasts embraced a good varlety of subjects. from liGen.

Most were situated in four or f.1 ve distinct' areas of the county,:; Stull (Dear Creek Settlement) in the NW: Eudora in the East: Worden in the South: Clearfield (Capt's creek): and Lawrence. The Pennsylvania German immigration into Douglas County began by 1855 and the first D~kard Church was organized in 1858. The EBERHAR'r and ULRICH fam'flies were two of many who settled in the Willow Springs area. Some of those German families who settled in the area of present-day Stull were: HILDENBRAND, GRESS, FRICKER, HElL, HOUK, BAHNMAIER, etc. In 1856, three members of a German Immigrant Settlement (or Society) from Chicago, called Deutsche Ansiedlungs Verein (or New Settlers Committee) were sent~out~':}as:::-B:rdo'ca:-t;1on commi ttee to chose a townsite for a German settlement. The three men were: H. HEIMANN, F. BARTELDES and C. SCHEIFER. Land for the settlement at presen,tday Eudora was deeded to the SOCiety by Chief Paschal FISH. Up until the late 1800's the German language was used in churches and and other gatherings of the Germans in that area. In Lawrence, many of the German merchant's stores of the last century were concentrated in the 700 and 800 block of Massachusetts St., such as stores owned by: William WIEDEMANN, who owned a popular ice cream and confectionary store: Charles ACHNING. hardware bUSiness: Leo STEINBERG, dry goods: Fred WIEMAN, cigar maker: 'and Carl NEUMANN, Central Drug Store (also called Deutsche Apotheker). A Turnhalle (or German gymnastic Club) was established in 1857 on the SW corner of 10th and N.Y. Sts. Later another Turnhalle was opened in 1867 at 9th and Rhode Island Sts. This stone building still stands today. A German newspaper , DIE GERMANIA ,<.:we;s:Cf:o.unded in 1877 by Gottlieb OEHRLE ~nd in later years Henry ALBACH was the editor and proprietor. Th1,s;:"'W~E9K~y,j'i:.paper was a popular one with local Germans up until the outbreak of ' World War I when its publication ceased. By 1890, there were 1,011 persons living in Douglas County who had been born in Germany, according to the Federal Census. Today hundreds of Douglas County citizens can trace their descent tr..om,one or more of the early German settlers in the county. ------- - - - - - ~----- ---- -- ----- - - - '- �57 _ A ~;;;;;~L;-I-'r~'r.~LE;.~.L~KN~O~WN~S;:O~U~R-GE-~;;;;;;;;;G~m~-~~iAN~~"~A~:l,;;I--EN~'~';;R~-EG~-~J.~S;~~A~-'r.;I~-O~N;;-R~-E~GQ~RD~-~-s~-~;;;;;~I '" by~' Ju.dy METCALF SWEETS~',~, A ver1table " g hIDd-m1ne fl of genealogical material reoently oame to our attent10n add we would be remiss 1f we did not share this wonderful "find" with our fellow genealog1sts.

I As a member of the firm of Pilla & Statler he i also carries on a brick manufacturing business. 'I In 1894 he erected a beautiful residence on a hill I overlooking the village and commanding a fine: view. At the time of the erection of the sweet I ,corn factory, in 1883. he was one of the principal contributors to the same and became a stockholder in the company. He is a stockholder and director of the Eudora Creamery Company, and I ,~as a stockholder in the Leis chemical works, of Lawrence, Kans. When the Kimball plow factory was started in Lawrence he assisted in the, organizatioti of the company controll.ing the, plant, but the enterprise did not prm'e successful. All movements of a progressive character where the benefit accrui"ng to the people is unquestionable have received' the impetus of his encouragement and practical aid. Since attaining his majority Mr. Pilla has always been a stanch RepUblican. As mayor of Eudora, and as a member of the city council, also as a school director, he has been able f!>'greati y promote local projects, and has given an.impetus to the welfare of his town and fellow·townsmen: In ~ IS7'I he received appointment as postmaster, and continued to fill the office until 1885. Prior I to this, from 1865 to IS7I. he served as assistant I postmaster, having practically the entire Charg~ of the office. Fraternally he is a member of Doric Lodge No. 83, A. F. & A.

In 1872 he enlarged the building and increased the quantity of stock carried. His store is now the lorgest of its kind in Eudora. In connection with the i mercantile department, for some years he carried ia stock of.. drugs, but this, is now discontinued.

It ls simply a 6ovetuous desire, without any show of right, and can be defended on po grounds of reason, justice or good nelghborship. The only plea set up 1s that Lawrence has made some outlays on roadsprincipally if not entirely in Leavenworth county-on thls side of the river. and therefore she ought to have a part of Jefferson countyl Who ever heard of Lawrence doing anything of the klnd not lmmediately for her own benefit? If she built roads it was because her citizens believed lt was for thelr lnterest to do so; and they never lnvested a dime in a road, except for an lnterested purpose; and they have ten'tlmes over recelved prlnclpal and lnterest for every cent they have thus expended on this side' of the river. But we have a counter-clalm to thls plea. It 1s thls. The citizens of Lawrence have taken wood and lumber from Jefferson county ln value a thousand-fold more than all the outlays on thls s1de of the rlver ln roads and everythlng else; and thls wood and lumber have been taken without renderlng ari equivalent to this county. These are the facts. Let them be known I Another claim set up ls, that a portion of thls county is convenient to Douglasl Indeedl If this plea is worth any thing, it is worth all the State, and Kansas may as well be annexed to Douglas at once as by piece-meal; for every t1me she extends her boundaries she w1ll lay alongs1de of contiguous territory, whlch it wlll be convenient to get hold of. This is worse than a robber's plea. It is the very essence of bad nelghborshlp. If we have a plece of land and choose to put our bu1ldings for our own convenlence or proflt, on one edge of the land doew that glve us a rlght to seize upon a portton of our neighbor's possesslons, simply because they are cont1guous? •• If the r1ver.

The first school was near Carlisle, Pennsylvania and directed by the original promoter of Indian education, Captain Richard H. Pratt. Plans for additional schools in more central locations were soon being developed. In July, 1881 the Lawrence Tribune observed that Lawrence had a good chance to be selected as the site of one of these schools. Major James M. Haworth, Inspector of Indian schools, was to decide where to place the schools. As an inducement to place a school here, local citizens worked hard in the summer of 1882 on a fund-raising campaign which netted $lO,OOO!which was used to purchase a 280 acre farm. The farm was offered as a campus for an Indian school and by the end of the year Haworth decided to locate a school here. In 1883, architect John G. Haskell prepared plans for two dormitories and a school building and work began on them in the fall. His brother, Dudley C. Haskell was then Chairman of the,.Indian Affairs Committee in the House of Representatives. He was an advocate of industrial training schools as worthwhile solutions to the Indian question. By 1883, Dudley Haskell was a rising Republican politician and a member of the powerful Ways and Means Committee. When Dudley Haskell died on December 16, 1883 from a chronic kidney disease known at that time as Bright's disease, he was a relatively young man. The Lawrence Journal stated four days later "Probably at no time in the history of our city has a death brought such universal sorrow and regret as that of our deceased statesman." Dudley Haskell's life left a distinct memory of his value and inspired a deep initial interest in 'the cause of Indian education which was assessed in the September 21, 1884 Lawrence Journal,. It stated that Dudley: �109 "'studied the Indian question closely • • • had he lived he would have accomplished a vast amount in aiding the. cause of Indian education:.l11 The newspaper spoke of the choice of Haskell as a name for the Lawrence Indian school as being "a merited compliment." Today Lawrence residents think of the name "Haskell'! and the Indian Junior College as unit~d which in one way ~epresents the commitment of the people of this area to Indian education. The Centenn:i.al Committee at Haskell has brought in many special programs and 'helped all of us to see the great div~rsity and rich culture of Native Americans. These Centennial activities are also leading to a rebil:;th of local support and interest in this federal school. ~,re invite your part:icipation in these activities. We hope you will visit the exhibit, "Haskell: 100 years" at the Watkins Community Museum.

Chief of the Sauk and Fox tribe was jalled overnight in the Lawrence jail with three companions. MO-ko-ho-ko. Ka-ka-pe-quode and Muscoe-tah. for the offense of "going to washington. DC." They were on their way there to see the "Great White Father" to protest the treaty p,:'oclaimed October 14. 1868 whereby the Sauk and Fox lands of Osage Co •• KS were ceded to the lI:overnment where it "went to settlers in lots of 160 acres. at not less than ·$1.50 per acre." The U.S. Commissioner of Indian Affairs. Charles Mix when he learned of their proposed visit to ~ashington. had adVised Thomas ~urphy. Indian Superindendant for Kansas that no d.elegation of Indians "in your superintendency will be allowed to visit this place during the present fiscal year ••• for the reason that there are no funds at the disposal of the Department ••• to use to defray their necessary expenses. Keokuk when read this statement replied that he had money enough to defray this expense and left with five others for Lawrence. Ks in November of 1868. Agent Wiley followed and made an aff1davit for the arrest of Keokuk and the other chiefs. The case was brought before the U.S. Commissioner. W.F. Montgomery and was set for the next term. Keokuk would not pay bail and was ordered to Jail. However. he eventual+y did reach his destination according to the New ~ Tribune 14 Deci.ember 1868 issue: " " '-" .. .

He was an interpreter for the Saawnee M1ssion Manual Labor School. his father had requested from the government. Hls wlfe and chlldren mlght have ~ied ln one of the terrlble cholera or smallpox epldemlcs that wiped out whole vlllages of Indlans as they came ln contact wlth the wh1te man. He was a cousln of the Shawnee Prophet. Paschal FISH, Jr. was also a blacksmlth for the government. a buslness man and a Methodist Minlster. He was descrlbed as a kind Chrlstlan man. Hls second wlfe was Hester Zane. daugher of Hannah (Dlcklnson) Zane. a Wyandot Indlan. They married Oct. 14 1847 and she died four and one half years later on Aprl1 17. 1852 Thelr chl1dren were: Obadlah-b. 1848; Eudora-b. 1850 and twins-Leander Jackson and Andrew-b. 1852. Eudora and Andrew went to 11ve wlth Grandmother Zane. Paschal must have remarrled between 1852 and 1855 as hls wlfe. Consort FISH dled ln the cholera epidemlc of 1855. Obadlah and Leander Jackson must have stayed w1th thelr father as they were 11v1ng ln 1860 and listed on Eudora's deed. Obad1ah 1s m1ss1ng on government rolls atter 1855 so may have d1ed then also.

Paschal's last wlte was Jane Qulnney and she went Wlth h1m to Oklahoma ln 1872 and ls on the Quapaw rolls and dled ln 1873.

Paschal requested a Mlssion School ln the Eudora area as his father had done and the Methodist Church started the Wakarusa Shawnee Indian Miss10n here ln 1851.

Phl1a.·· Pa' Dear Slr Permlt me to address a few 11nes to you. on a subject however. on whlch lt appears we feel allke. I am a mlsslonary of the Moravlan. (Unlted Brethran ohurch) and have been ln the Terrltory ever slnce 1846. wlth a short lnterruptlon. I have seen the operatlon on the frontler among the semlclvl1lzed Indlan and have seen the Indlan ln hls orlglnal state. And havlng been at the federal Clty for a number of tlmes about Indlan affalrs and havlng made the acqualntance of many agents for the Indlans. I recelved conslderatle lnslde lnto that branch of Government. And when courts were establlshed ln thls Terrltory I made lt an object to learn ln how far the Indlan would be protected by It. But. alasl all ls calculated to exterminate the Indlan and destroy or hlnder all the ggod whlch ls done by benevolent Socletles. The master stroke. however. to accompllsh·the object has been done a few weeks wlnce by the expoundlng of the laws ln relatlon for the protectlon of the Indlans. It ls declded by the U.S. Supreme Court for thls te~rltory. that there ls no law ln exlstance. by whlch a person can be reached\1). who trespasses on the Indlans rlghts and that the U.S. has no rlghts to prooecute a person maklng a settlement on Indlan's land. . For two years I followed up suoh cases. havlng seen hundred of cords of wool carrled away. bul1dlng timber and ralls. Have seen how the Indlan so11. was cultlvated by lntruders. houses bul1t on thelr land and maklng the effoltto drlve the Indlan from hls own home. I thought lt lmposslble that person. gullty of such cr1mes. and when 4 to 5 wltnesses stand ready to testlfy to It. should be dlsmlssea and yet some 20 such cases were a1smlssed. that have made settlements on not more than 4 sectlons of Indlan land and besldes these I saw about 50 other cases dlsmlssed. My haart fal1ed me and I was ready to cry: "Lord lt ls enough now. take away my llfe for I am no better than my fathers." I had no more hope. for lf the Indlans can not be proteoted. for the averlesloness7 of the whlte man • lf there ls no penalty that he has to fear. ·every stlck of tlmber wl11 be taken from the Indlan. he wl1l be harraseed day after day. and I have already wr1tten to the offlcers of my church that I conslder the mlsslon work closed ln Kansas and that I were ready to return home. But strange as lt may appear. lt ls so never the less that my mlnd recased to the east. I felt assured there was nO,'hope ln the west of a reactlon. ln the Indlan's behalf. but I had to belleve. If the east could only be enllghtened on the Indlan treatment and thelr wants. they were not so corrupt. but would yet rise up for the rescue of the Indlan: If there were only a man of splrlt and abll1ty to revele and arouse them. That ls my only hope: And lt was cheerlng beyond measure when a few days ago. on a vlslt ~o the Ottawa Indlans. I learned of my fr1end John JONES. that there were socletles formlng for that purpose. I read the proceedlngs of the meetlngs both of N.Y. and Phlld. I rejolnced at the splrlt manlfested ln the resolutlons. I read your remarks and a hope gleaned up ln my darkened vls1on. that the wlcked and destructlve course now pressed? towards the Indlans. may yet be arrested. If we were only left alone wlth them we could do much for thelr good. but the ru1nous course has gathered strength by lts age. and power by popularity and the missionary can now only think of how to remove the evil and he could see no way to accompllsh It. But the popular voice can. I do not expect much from christlan denomlnations in thls dlrectlon. the unlted masses can only effect It •. And. from the bottom of my heart I glve you God's speed. "Come ,over and help usl" I would now suggest that ln my oplnlon. you ought to lnvestlgate or see lt done. or at least age tate It. whether lt be a fact. that there ls no law or statute by whlch one can reach trespassers on Indlan rlghts. I know well that there is a penalty of one thousand dollars agalnst maklnga settlement and e. on Indlan lands • .But Judge Pettett declded "that slnce the land belongs to the Indian and not to the U.S. the U.S. has no rlght to. create a revenue out of that whlch does. not belong to it. that the Indlans should bring the suit. "Well we dld by lnjunct10n and by lndlctment for the Indlans and for the U.S. but nothlng would do'. And a Indlan to br1ng sult. ln hls name 1s nonsense • . How can a ward sue? Yet I am not a lawyer and do therefore not understand the law. Hop1ng that these llnes may flnd favor. I am. very respectfully yours. G.F.

JOliN CRIMP WATTS, who has made his home in Kansas since the fall. of 1856, was born near Plymouth, Devonshne, England, September 3, 1835, a son of John and Elizabeth (Crimp) Watts, natives of the same shire. His father, who was the son of a stone masen, leamed that trade at an early age and after a t;ille began to take contracts. While engaged i" filling a contract he accidentally fell from the belfry of a church and was so injured that hei died six months later. Besides his wife (whol came to Kansas and died here at the age of fifty-: six yt;::.r~) ;-.e left four children, of whom John I Crimp is the oldest and the only 5urvh-or. Isaac, I the secone: son, was a soldier in the British army and served in India, hu: resigned, came to' America and settled in Kansas, where he died. Thomas, who was also a soldier in India, came to Ka:JS3S in the early days and remained here until18i9, when he went east, and since then all trace of '~'m has be~n lost. Mary, the only daugh- i ter, married A. Woods, and died in Lawrence. After his father's death our subject was ap-; prentic~d to his partner, with whom he remained I until he was eighteen. In 1853 he came to America on the sailer "Rose," and landed in Quebe;: ~fter a voyage of eight weeks. Going to Cleve1a::;1, Ohio, he worked as a stone mason and hric:'12.yer. In 1854 he went to Chicago and Waukegon, Ill., in both of which places he found employment and began contracting. In the fall , o[ 1856 be qme to Kansas. He was then a young' man of twenty-one years. With all the enthusi- : asw of youth began life in a new country amid hardships and difficulties. Going to Pottawatomie County he took up the first claim near r Louisville, and there he built a house and made; improvements, retaiuing the place for four years. As he passed through Lawrence he had noticed some stone buildings, and thinking it might be possible for him to secure work, he returned to I I i ! I he I -- -- - - - - - .-- - - '- this city in February, 1857, and began contracting a::td building. In order to hold his claim on Rock Creek, every six months for two years he made a· trip to it, starting from Lawrence on foot at noon and w::lking twcnty-five miles tbat day, and twenty-nine the next, reacbing the land after dark. Four years after be had settled in Lawrence a m::1D offered him $1,000 for it. He accepted the offer, deposited tbe money in a bank which failed three days later, entailing a total loss to him. Undiscouraged, however, he continued his work as contractor, and in time became successful, he and his uncle, Abraham Watts, being partncrs. He built the Miller block, G. A. R. building, Poehler block. tbe grocery building owned by Jobn Jones, and many residences i:J : this city. About 1890 he practically retired from i business, although since then he has consen ted , to take a few important contracts, among them: tbat of the library building in the UniYersitr of i Kansas (1894), and the Fowler shops at the university (1898).. He is the owner of considerabie I valuable, property in Lawrence, and bas dealt ex- I tensh'ely in real est"te. During the antebellum I· days he experienced all the terrors oi border warfare, and remembers well tbe pe.rils of tbe Quan- I trell ra'id that brought deatb and disaster to the i people of Lawrence. At the time of the Price' raid he was mustered into Company A, Third i Kansas Militia, under Captain Wheeler as corporal, and went with his regiment down to the Blue.' In Lawrence Mr. Watts married Fannie, daughter o{ Thomas Collier, who came frolll Pennsylvania to Lawrence in 1857. They be·came the parents of six children, of whom Mary died at fourteen years, and the others are at home. Mr. Watts voted the Republican ticket until the Tilden campaign, since which time he has been a Democrat. He is serving his third term as chairman of the Democratic county committee. For three terms he represented the third and iourtb wards in -the city council, 'where he was chairman of the committee on streets, alleys and bridges. For two years he held the office of ,street commissioner. On the Republican ticket, in 1874, he was elected to tbe legislature, receh'ing a majority Of six-hllllOreQoverAlexanaer . Banks. In the session of 1875 he secured the, passage of a bill assessing property and stock at ' the place of their location. Not wishing to be the recipient of any favors from the railroads, he sent hack 'all passes presented to him~ For two years he was a director of the state penitentiary under Governor Glick. After becoming a Demo- I crat he was a candidate for sheriff and treasnrer I of Douglas County, bpt his party being in the! minority he failed of election. However, he over- I came a majority of o~e thousand and was defeat- : ed by only one hundred votes. He is a demitted member of the Odd Fellows, and belongs to the: .

I t stan.,,, 1n 1869 as a part ~f the Lawrence Circuit and later as a part cf the Eudora Circuit. In 1905 Deer Creek(now Stull) and Willow Springs comprised a circuit. ~ext we became a full-time appointment and the name was changed to Worden, for the community in which our church is located, rather than the township. The town of Willow Springs was an important stop on the Santa Fe Trail, was located 5 miles northeast of Worden(where the German Baptist Church is now located). The Willow Springs postoffice was closed November I, 1900. Worden's history as a post office address(although we still get mail addressed to Worden, Kansas)is found in KANSAS POST OFFICES by Robert W. Baughman: "A post office was es tab lished on September 22, 1884. John F. Schott was the first postmaster. This farming community is located east of Globe in south Douglas County. The post office was discontinued on May 31, 1895; reopened September 9, 1896, but was permanently closed on July IS, 1904." The question of where Worden got its name seems to have two possible answers. I am told by Raymond Schott, grandson of John Fredrick Schott, first and only Worden postmsster(this postoffice was located on the Fred Turner farm)that close to Oldenburg, Germany, where the Schott family came from, was a.town by the name of Worden. The Schott family had conections with the Worden Church, Miss Gertrude E. Schott was a member from 1909 until her death November 25, 1942. Two children of Hugo and Ethel Schott were baptized March 30, 1913; their namea were: Lola and Victor, grandchildren of the postmaster. If Mr. Schott was consulted about the name for the new postoffice, it-~y well have been named for Worden, Germany. However there is ;nother possiblity: ''Lorenzo J. Worden, born April 13, 1828, in Stephentown, N.Y. a descendant of Peter Worden of Clayton, England. Young Lorenzo was educated at Ithaca and Elmira Academies and taught school for eight years. He secured further education at Alfred University. On tour-through Virginia and North & South Carolina he witnessed the violence of slavery, and was determined to come to Kansas to help make it a Free State. He married Jane E. Wormley, June 7, l85~ and taught school one year to provide necessary funds to go to Kansas and participate in the struggle for freedom. They arrived in Lawrence, October 27, 1855. He located on a claim one mile west of Lawrence, and farmed until 1862, when he entered the office of internal revenue as chief clerk and assistant assessor for the State of Kansas, which pOSition he retained until 1870. He gained considerable respect in that office, and was elected state senator. He was made chairman of the committee on assessments and taxation. In 1873 he was appointed postmaster in Lawrence, second largest post office in the state. He was re-appointed by President Hayes, upon the almost unanimous petition of the City, in 1877. Mrs. Worden was a woman of fine intellectual qualification and finished education. Truly it may be said, never did wvman more devotedly sympathize with her husband, nor husband more affectionately appreciate the virtues of a good woman than have Mr. & Mrs. Worden." Much more has been written of Mr. Worden. In 1868 he purchased a t section of land just north of the Howard Broylea farm. Let us now look at the second possiblity of where Worden may have gotten its name. The fact of Mr. Worden oWlling land in this community, being in the Postal System, and a man of considerable prominence, would lead us to believe that, in seeking a name for the new postoffice. they might well have turned to the Honorable Lorenzo J. Worden, teacher, farmer, abolitionist, assessor, state senatori and postmaster. ''Worden Unincorporated" is only a spot on the map to the traveler's eye, or to those speeding down Highway 56(20th century Santa Fe Trail). If they blink their eyes, they may miss it completely! However, to the neighbors a~d friends of those tw~ places still carrying the.name Worden, Worden Ag. Service, and Worden United Methodist Church, they pleasant placea to stop. 'Vorden Unincorporated" will remain on the map and Jear to the hearts of many, while Echo, Willow Springs, Weaver, Franklin and countless other "hopeful cities" have disappeared. The final chapter on where Worden got its name may not yet be written, but at least we now have two possiblities.

The Douglas County Genealogical Society is a non-profit organization with regularly scheduled meetings the second Tuesday night of each month, 7:30 P.M., meeting place to be announced. Mini-workshops are held that same evening at 6:30 P.M. prior to the monthly meeting. Membership fees are $10.00 single, $11.00 family. The fiscal year is from July 1 to June 30 of the follOWing year. 199 200 �------- ------------ --' --l --------------------151 I THEPRESIDE~T'A;MRSBAGE As our year draws to a close, and as I complete my term as your president, we should take stock of our accomplishments as they relate to our goals as a genealogical society. First, as to numbers, we have nearly doubled our membership in the past two years. With 118 members two years ago, we increased this to 146 'members last year, and now we stand at 222 members on our rolls. More important than numbers however, are our achievements as a society, and the help we have provided to individuals and the public generally. What'we have accomplished is not the work of anyone person alone, nor is it the work of the board-excellent as it has been. Our accomplishments are the result of concerted efforts of the members, each contributing his or her special talent. A mouthpiece of our organization is, of course, our quarterly, "The Pioneer," which has been most capably edited by Judy Sweets, assisted by many contributors. This is an outstanding publication, one which we proudly distribute to individuals and societies allover the United States. Also widely distributed, and of no less importance, is the quarterly Newsletter, edited by Jane Wiggins. This serves as a "bulletin board" of events, both within and without our Society, which are of interest to the membership. , We have had excellent speakers and programs during the pas~ year, among them our own Dr. Thomas Gorton speaking on "Researching Pennsylvania Records;" Dr. Robert Hudson from the K.U. Medical Center speaking on "Nineteenth Century Medicine;" Haskell's Vice President Charles Geboe speaking on "Haskell Junior College" in this; the year of the Haskell Centennial; Chuck King from Second Impressions presenting a program on old photographs, entitled "Heritage;" Mary Burchell, from the ~.U. Law Library, giving US an overview of the facilities there and describing how these could aid genealogists; and Helen King from Topeka giving us an evening on "Using Maps in Genealogy." In addition, our programs included two panel discussitins in which the panel was composed of members of our Society: Donald Vaughn, Judy Sweets, Hugh Stouppe, Edna Welling, Mary Lou Winchell, and your president. Our Society was also the guest of the Topeka Genealogy Society when Attorney General Robert Stephan spoke on "Vital Statistics Closed to Most," a topic dear to our hearts and an issue which we have sought to resolve by having Senate Bill 319 become law. Thirteen members of our group visited the Legislature in Topeka in this regard. On the lighter side, Lawrence Chapman entertained us by playing the dulcimer, and explaining the instru~~nt and the songs, at our Christmas dinner. Other projects this year have included putting the five-generation charts into book form; continued work on the cemetery book; copying records of importance to genealogists, including 1875 Douglas County census records, m.arriage records, and naturalizations; maintaining a booth for two days at the 1984 "Independence Days," and again for two days at the "Maple Leaf Festival" in Baldwin. Special thanks to those who stood in the heat for the first and in the rain for the second. In the area of education, I have conducted three sessions, in addition to the regular meetings, on "Beginning Genealogy" ,at the Lawrence Public ' Library, and I have spoken on "Why Genealogy'.' to'th'e Eudora Historical Society and the Osage County Historical Society. Jane Wiggins has conducted a monthly mini-workshop for new members, and for those with special research problems, and these have been most appreciated. In addition, many of our members have attended fine area workshops, one of which was that of the Jefferson County Genealogical Society where we had a table and sold books and memberships. The Society was invited to attend the Haskell Centennial Convocation, and at least a dozen members attended. Special thanks go to Deanna Miles and Mike Yoder of the Lawrence Journal World for promotion of our Society and genealogy generally through an article which appeared on Sunday, September 23, 1984, and to the Lawrence Public Library and the Douglas County Historical Society for providing space for our meetings. ' Genealogy is clearly an activity which exemplifies the old adage, "The more you put inl:o it the more you get out of it." The opportunities for participation in our Society are endless, and I ext~nd my heartfelt thanks to all of you who attended meetings (monthly, board and comm,ittee); to those who spent hours on the telephone, or copying records, or planning and thinking; th~se who recruited new members; who walked miles through brambles, snow and ra1n for cemetery records; those who,drove their cars, wrote, typed, stapled, pasted, cut, searched, dug for old records, gave speeches, visited, indexed, studied, and proofread. The list goes on, but the rewards are boundless: FRIENDSHIP, TOGETHERNESS, LAUGHTER, HELPING, ACCOMPLISHMENT, PROGRESS, FUN, SUCCESS. Who can put a price on these? ' Sincerely, I '- �152 ------------ --, ;..~-~-- !~~t ,. EDITOR I~ MESSAGE -- ; In thls lssue we feature the territorlal period of Kansas (1854-1861). It was our plan to gather and compile as many. records of this period as possible. The Territorial days in Kansas were a time of excitement. confllct and turmoil in which pro-slavery and free-state factions battled each other. slaves traveled the "Vnderg:round !iai1road"ln search of a safe haven in one of the "free-state towns" such as Lawrence. and Indians began leaving for reservations in Oklahoma and elsewhere as their lands were claimed by white settlers from the East. Thls was also a time of great hardship for fami11es: homes were burned. husbands murdered. children died from cholera and other diseases and wives cooked and cared for the scores of newcomers who arrlved in the territory every daY.--And then in 1860 came the famine. This was the last straw for many emigrants who packed their belongings and lef,t,._~~.!... for those who:remained. there was help from agencies in the Zast who sent food and'other necessltles until the crisis was past. The records we publish in \,this lss.ue reflect the good tlmes and the bad.

Some of your wares would sell here well at good price. The merchants are getting in some Furniture and it sells like hot cakes. I have slept on the Ground for want of a bedstead untill within the last three Weeks. I made a rais (1) of a cot bed- . stead and thought I was in Town sure. I have been l1.veing all about since (I) camel'1ost of the Time have been teeming ~'Jit Was first rate business in the spring the Emi~ration WaS very great. Some of the Boats would land three hundred fore . this part of the Teritory. It Was 45 miles that they had to go by Land after leaving the boat. I had as good Teem as runs on the rout and I used to get as many Pasengers as I could Haul evry Time at 12.50 and allmost allways got a load back. The Eastern men not being used to New Country. would go as far as Lawrence. see the Elephant. stay over night and put back 1.n the morn1.ng. I d1.dn't like to see them go back b,ut was willing to take all the Dimes I could (honorably) out of them. I made it pay. I didn~t come out for nothing. I am a going to make fair i~est on my package money at least. I now have sold out the Team and gon over across the R1.ver amongst the Indians. Have rented the same Land that was Fenced and well cultivated. Everyting is up to the highest notch. Corn is worth $2". per bushel. Potatoes 'can't be had. I calculate to rais one thousand bushel corn _____ potatoes. I can't stop to write much now. I must go to work. It looked like rain but has cleared off now. ' t I I would like to write' all I know about the Teritory and will next Time- the news are scarce now-l suppose When our Missouri Legislature assemble, there will be some-l expect that they will have a great Time-I suppose you have heard what a Time we had at the Election-the Red Mouths carraid evrything and expect to do as they choos. I don't know but they may-that remains to be seen. I will send you the papers that you can know what is agoing on heare but you will have to make a liberal allowance for what you read-I sent you one Paper-must write whether you received or not-I am getting tired and must close. Please except these few imperfect lines. From your affectionate Cousen. Ralph C. DIX I J Direct to Lawrence, K.T.

It would seem that one would have the greatest success in finding divorces of that period 'at the, county 'levei.~However, our search at the county courthouse yielded only two divo~ces for the period' before 1861. These were found in Journal A in ;the probate court at the Judicial and Law , Enforcement Center in:Lawrence.

Since Kansas became a state, the district courts have had exclusive jurisdiction over' divorces. But it was not always thus. In 1855, when the first legislature met, it passed a law fixing the causes for divorce and directed, in Chapter' 62. that any court of chancery shall have jurisdiction in divorce and alimony." "The courts corresponded to -the present distri"ct',courts in ·Kans'asand the' clrcuit courts in Missouri ." , ;-- - - ' - ,--~)-c 0- ~4\-'--] ~,:-,--: _' '~"-v' , '. ',," '. The Le;glslatI:ve . .Assembly of the T~rritory ,of Kansas in 1859 outlined the causes for divorce-;as: I When the defendant at '~he tim,e of his marriage was impotent. When he had a lawful- ,wife then 11 ving • When he has committed adultery subs~qqent to the marriage. When he Willfully deserts his wife and absents himself without reasonable cause for the space of one year. 5. When after marriage he becomes addicted to habitual drunkenness., 6.

Governor. ' 1. 2• J., 4. ---------, �160 According to 1'1r. Howes. nThere were seventy-f1 ve d1 vorces granted by the terr1torial legls1atures of 1858.1859. 1860 and 1861. The practlce s:topped when Kansas became a state." He stated. "Forty divorces were authorized in 1860. ln a slng1e sess10n. almost onehalf the total for the four legislatures" ••• "A blll was lntroduced, referred to one branch or the other of the leglslature with recommendation that it be passed. The bill became a prlvate law and an actual divorce decree." A separate legislatuve b1ll was requlred for each divorce. They are not to be found 1n the statute books but as private laws. It seems the granting of d1vorces by the leglslature may have been somewhat of a racket or scandal. Sol Miller, ed1tor of the White Cloud Kansas Chlef, took notice of the legislation just after the close of the 1860 sessl0Ji:l_of. the Terri t-or1al legislature. M1ller wrote: ; --1 I ~ "We th1nk 1t would Ibe a jud1~10us move to app01nt a comm1ttee in each county 1n the terr1tory, whos,e duty it) shall be to use the._utmostd1l1gence to ascerta1n how many and what_uiarr1ed-persons 1n the territory were not d1vorced- in the late . leg1slature.

It is hoped that in the future add1t10nal divorce records w1ll come to light.

However, during a reeent~tr1p to the Kansas State Historical Society in Topeka we read an unpublished inventory of Douglas Co. records which was done in the 1930' s by the Works Progress Administration. To __ oar surprise this inventory stated that declarations of intention for the year 1856-1857 were to be found in a volume called "Journal A- in the oounty courthouse. Returning to Lawrence, we searched for this volume and found it not in the District Court office where the , other Declarations and Petitions are kept but in the Probate court office. All i thirty four declarations of intentions were copied and are included in this issue. ! I National QUite unexpectedly, While looking through the territorial court records at the Archives-Kansas City Branch, we found many Declarations of Intention I for the years, 1855-1858 in the record~books of Judicial District One and Two for Kansas Territory. (These,were nDp~ed~ are included in this issue). ~ I .i i The "Old" First Judicial District, established in November of 1854 included Douglas, Doniphan, Atchison. Leavenworth. Jefferson and Calhoun (now Jackson) oounties. Douglas County became part of JudiCial District Tio as of February 26, 1855 when the Second Jud101al D1striots were def1ned as including election d1stricts. 1. 2. 3; 4. 5. 6 and 17.

Lawrenc~; Kansas JLi:ne A ------- lit. 1860 "Bloominjiton. Kansas Territory. June 11. 1860- T.D. THACHER. ~sq. Dear 51.r: In an art1.cle 1.n the Lawrence nepubl1.can of the 7th 1.nstatlt. headed. "Br1.dg-e Destroyed". 1.t seems that your reporter has been mis1.nformed relat1.ve to the facts 1.n the case. It 1.s stated that "the br1.dge (north of Bloom1.ngton) 1.s a total wreck." 'i'hat 1.s a m1.stake. The br1.dge was 248 feet long. hav1.ng n1.ne abutments. Three of these are on the south side of the Wakarusa. supporting sixty feet of superstructure. and the remain1.ng six are on the north side of the stream supporting 108 feet of super structure. Each of these port1.ons are in excellent cond1.t1.on. and equal to any we1.ght 11.kely to pass over any road in Kansas. The part broken down 1.s the 80 feet span over the stream. and that 1.s not a "total loss". two thirds i.f not three-fourths of the mater1.al. such as flooring. joist or stringers. bolts. etc. having been carelully separated·and taken· care· of 1.n such a manner as to make them answer the same purpose again. The br1.dge was 1.mperfect. as is stated. be1.ng lower on our side than on the other. However. that Was not the cause of its giving away. One of the It 1.nch iron bolts broke on the side that was pronounced to be all rt~ht. The rod Was examined after the fall. and found to have a flaw. leaving only half inch in thickness of good iron. In regarci. to the bridge hav1.ng "cost the county some ~1.200". that is also an error. The great necessity of a bridge on the road from Bloom1.ngton to Lecompton 1.nduced many c1.tizens to subscr1.be for that purpose. When the list was presented to me. I noticed that it was headed by some bery liberal subscriptions. William JESSEE 'lIas down ~150~.Qliver BARBER $50; the rest were all smaller. none to exceel1 ~25. 'rhe',amoUnt subscribed for this public improvement Was about ~500. and Was expended on the bridge--hardly half building 1.t. Subsequently. the county (as it had done in other cases) appropriated ~400in county orders. which unfortunately were-orilty avall.aO.l.e at; aOout;-slitCt;y~c~'ht;-s-on-tt1e-doliar. and. therefore amount1.ng v1.rtually only to ~240. The bridge was finished by additional a1.d. pr1.ncipally. however. com1,ng (~om WilHam JESSEE'. ·who has appropriated more of h1. s pr1.vate means to the-accompl1.shment of this enterprise than was given by the county. \fr:t will now req u1.re about 'w20 0 to place the fallen span baCk 1.n a strtlm~. substant1.al and workmanHke manner. Hop1.ng that you w1.11 please make the__ :·::_-_-:~I;-;f!--:;i). necessary corrections 1.n this matter. I remain. '" 1,_ " Respectfully yours. F.n; BEl'iKAU -Reply: vre are obliged to Mr. BE.~AU for h1.s correct1.ons and hope the comparatively small amount necessary to repair the bridge will be immediately raised. and the br1.dge restored.--Editor. iiEPUBLICAN." Note: 'rhe William JESSEE ment1.oned as be1.ng a Hberal subscriber for the bridge :'l9.S the founder of BLOONINGTON on whose property the bridge was bunt on the 'tiakarusa. It was believed that he and his two daughters 'Here st1.11 buried beneath the parking lot at Clinton Lake.

This reCipe was printed in an article by Cecil Howes in the Kansas City Times, 13 IVlay 1942. / "Parch or brown field corn in a heavy skillet, stirring it won't burn, then pour sorgham over it (about the . ;same amount as for popcorn balls) and heat over fireplace coals stirring all the time until sorgham has been ,absorbed.

In 1884 he bought· the I place where he has since engaged in farming and ' ·' dealing in stock, making a specialty " of raising I Hereford cattle. The success that he has at-· itained proves him to be a man of energy and per- , : severance.

It seems that Walter SCOTT, the son of a wealthy farmer ln Falmyra townshlp. was very naturally averse to havlng hls parents - settle the qu~otlon of whom he should marry. He attempted to run away once before wl th Mlss Etta FINNEY, the glrl of hls cholti:e, but the old gentleman put a stop to It. He apparently gave up the ldea of acceptlng any glrl but the one hls father deslred. But Wednesday nlght the whole scheme was knocked hlgher thap a klte. In the nelghborhood where they 11ve, about flve ml1es south of Baldwln, was held at the school house a strawberry festlval. Walter took the glrl of his parent's choice there. But Mlss FINNEY was also there, and she bestowed on Walter that same sml1e that to hlm was worth more than all the sweetness of the tables laden with fruit. He longed to be wlth her above all others, and the deslre being mutual they soon drlfted together and had arranged for a 11ttle rlde where they mlght tell each other of the troubles that beset lovers where the old folks do not approve, and the fire of love that burned wlthln them and would not be quenched. They took the rlde. but were followed very soon by the other girl and her frlends. Walter's horses were the fleetest and he was soon out of reach of his pursuers. When he and Etta returned to the school house they found that the other company had gone home. and both knew that the very old Nick would be to pay. Resolvlng that they may as well suffer for a sheep as a lamb. the lovers concluded to take the team and drlve to Lawrence and get married. They arrl ved here about 4 0' clock and put up at the Place Ihouse where they sat ln the parlor and chatted untll breakfast tlme. After breakfast the parties started out to get a llcense, and after golng down to the court house they at last succeeded in flndlng Judge Foote and were getting ready to have the important knot tied when the marshal put in an appearance and sent the glrl to a hotel and took the boy with hlm. When Mr. SCOTT arrlved he at flrst consented but at last took lt back and left for hls home leaving the gartles here. The people ln the nelghborhood where they live were hunting for them most of the night. and thelr friends were glven a great scare.

The town-site. seleoted in Ootober 1853 was on the olaim of one. Lewis B. WALLACE. a strong pro-slavery man. Direotly north from Blue Mound a semioirole of timber stretohing along the bankS of the two streams between whioh it lay. the fertility of the soil yielding from 25 to 100 bushels of oorn an aore. all tended to make this site desirable for the looation of a town. The old California road leading from westport. MO •• thirty-e1ght miles east. aoross the wakarusa at Bluejaoket's ford. formed the main street of the town. and extended west through Lawrenoe and Leoompton. Three WALLACE boys: Lewis. Clark and John. and Jeremiah CHURCH. popularly known as "Jerry". a Virginian. and celebrated somewhat as a violinist. were the prinoiple founders of the town. It was named for the grandson of CHURCH. Franklin HULL. infant son of Dr. HULL and Mrs. HULL. daughter of CHUB.CH. It was founded as a pro-slavery town, a rival of Lawrenoe. a free-state strone hold. No buildings were ereoted. or other improvements made until the year 1854. In June of that year, immediately after the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska bill. building began. and soon there were several' houses. among whioh was a blook-house. ereoted for the keeping of militar.y supplies for the border ruffians from the border oounties of Missouri. who were fast flooking to Kansas, tog3ther with foroes from other southern states. with the intent of making Kansas a slave state. Many from Illinois. PennsylVania and other northern states settled in and near Franklin. who wished Kansas to be a free state. I There were two battles in Franklin. The first was on June 2. 1856. the seoond on August 12. the same year. These battles were a part of what was known as the Wakarusa war. whioh began over the killing of a man south of Lawrenoe. in the latter part of 1855 •• .0.5. HOYT. In the spring of 1857, hostilities apparently at an end. Franklin took a fresh start and grew in population. buildings and business. The town was inoorporated. Dr. R.L. WILLIAMS. who oame to the town from Illinois. and who afterwards served as a delegate from Douglas oounty. to the Wyandotte oonvention. ereoted a storyand a half stone store building and plaoed a stook of merohandise therein. A steam saw-mill. eighteen horse-power. in operation and turning out 5,000 feet of lumber a day. also paS3ed into the hands of Mr. WILLIAMS.~~t. this. time there were about forty buildings in the town. and more in oontemplation of being ereoted A stage line from Westpor~~leadin~west. and one from Leavenworth to LeRoy. oounty seat of Coffey oounty. passed through Franklin ••• " A two-story frame hotel was operated by Samuel CRANE, a land offioe was established by one of the WALLACE boys. and one of them had a store ••• The population numbered about 400.

Some of the houses were moved to Lawrenoe, among wh10h was the hotel, onoe known as the Plaoe house of New Hamps~1re Street. The sawm1l1 was moved to Jefferson oounty. on Mud oreedk and was operated there for many years by Dr. WILLIAMS. "The, post. off10e Was disoont1nued 1n Novermber, 1867. The townsite passed 1nto the hands of Dr. WILLIAMS and was operated by b1m for many years as a farm. About f1fteen years ago the stone house was torn down.

Caldwell In September, 1854, Rev. S.Y. LUM, of New York, was sent out as a missionary to Kansas,- by the Home Missionary Society. Arriving in Lawrence, he immediately commenced his work, preaching his first sermon October 1, 1854. The services were held in the "Pioneer Boarding House"-the only available building at that time . . After holding several meetings, an organization was perfected by him, including the following members: S~Y. LUM, Charles DICKSON, O.A. HANSCOM, O. HARLOW, L. LITCHFIELD and wife, S.C. POMEROY, Carrie R. LUM, Anna TAPPAN. The organization was named the "Plymouth Church," from the fact that the circumstances and aims of its founders, who were principally from New England, so nearly resembled those of the Plymouth Pilgrims. Services were held in the "Pioneer Boarding House" for a short time, when the rough board building, called "the church," was completed. During. the winter, the building was destroyed by fire. In March, 1855, the church commenced holding meetings in the St. Nicholas Hotel. Services were held here until a room was provided in the upper story of a frame building on Massachusets.street. In the autumn of 1855, they were compelled to relinquish the room for the use of the citizen soldiery. In the sUmIner of 1856, they moved into the "Emigrant Aid Building," which they occupied through the fall and winter, and later, a few weeks,the Unitarian Church. In the spring of 1856, the erection of a church edifice.was commenced, and the building partially completed in the spring of the year following, and services held in it. The building was finally completed in 1862. The structure is 40x65 feet, and built of limestone. Rev. S.Y. LUM officiated as pastor till the spring .of 1857, when he was succeeded in December of the same year, by Rev. D. CORDLEY. For eighteen years, Mr. CORDLEY had charge of the church, and was succeeded in May, 1876, by Rev. L.W. SPRING. Mr. SPRING remained till October, 1881, and was succeeded by the present incumbent, Rev. G. Hale SCOTT. In 1868, the church having progressed so rapidly, it was found necessary to erect a new edifice. This structure, one of the largest and finest buildings of its kind in the State, is constructed of brick, and is 60xl14 feet. The total cost, including a $4,000 pipe organ, was $40,000.

ComplIed by Judy Sweets- '~'-. �27 , ~nlon J_ __ _ _ •• __ __ L ~ ~i The Republican: Lawrence, Kansas, June 14, 1860 HORRIBLE MURDER! Midnight Attack on the House of Jos. Gardner (' -v\ ( ) On last Friday night, about midnight, the house of Mr. Joseph GARDNER-one of the most respected citizens of this county, living on Washington Creek--was attacked by a gang of armed assassins, who attempted to enter the house and murder its inmates. Mr. GARDNER and his family bravely defended themselves, and a colored man working for Mr. GARDNER, named Napoleon SIMPSON, going to the door during the attack, was fatally wounded, so that he died in less than an hour. Volley after volley was fired in at the windows, and it was only by a miracle that more of the inmates were not murdered. Mr. GARDNER is a quiet man, very highly esteemed by the community at large, and knows of no cause of enmity against him, except that he is a radical anti-slavery man, and never betrays the fleeing fugitive. It is supposed that the attack must have been made by a gang of wretches who are prowling about the Territory, stealing horses, kidnapping colored people, and committing like crimes. Those who think that the battle with the slave power is fought and won, on the soil of Kansas, will see that it is only just begun! We publish below the testimony taken before the coroner, in accordance with which a verdict was found that deceased came to his death at the hands of persons unknown: Joseph GARDNER, being duly sworn, testified as follows: A few minutes before one o'clock a.m. on the morning of June 9, 1860, three or more men, to me unknown, came to my house and attempted to force an entrance. To the question, "Who is there?" the reply was, "Open the door, sir." "What do you want?" was answered with the expression, "G-d D--m you, open the door!" The door was then opened, and I immediately discharged my revolver at a person standing nearby, supposed to be the one who had been talking to me. My shot was promptly answered, and as promptly repeated on my part. Again my shot was responded .to. But my third shot receiving no answer, I shut the door and went to a window, through which I discharged a shot at a man who was passing. This shot was very promptly answered by another man, at the side of the window. At the same moment, a heavy discharge of bird and buckshot came in at the other window, on the opposite side of the house. I then took my Sharp's rifle, with which I shot several times at two different men I saw retreating on horseback. On passing a window, a discharge of buckshot, twelve in number, was aimed at me, and lodged in the wall of my house, but a short distance from the bed in which my wife and two youngest children were. While I was thus engaged' in the defense of my self and home, my son, Theodore and a man in my employment by the name of Napoleon SIMPSON, were also engaged in the defense--each discharging several shots. Two shots were fired at my son, and one at Napoleon SIMPSON, which took effect in his left breast, when he fell to the floor, and died in about forty-five minutes. �28 Jos. GARDNER Con't: Question-- Did you see anyone that you could recognize in the future? Answer-- No. Q. Was anything found about the premises that,would tend to implicate any person? A. Nothing positive; but there were a few things that make up strong circumstantial evidence. Q. Have you those things in your possession? A. Yes. Mrs. Sarah GARDNER, being duly sworn, testified as follows: A few minutes before one o'clock, on the morning of the 9th inst., I was awakened by the dogs making a noise. My husband got out of bed and ~vent to the door, and asked, "Who is there?" Their reply.was, "Open the door, sir." My husband then asked, "What do you want?" The reply was, "G-d d-m you, "open the door!" in a very stern voice. The door was then opened and my husband then fired. Five different. shots were exchanged at the door. My husband then closed the door and went to a window, through which he discharged another shot from his revolver. A shot was fired in at the south window, which set fire to some cotton fabric under the same, which I immediately extinguished. My husband and Napoleon SIMPSON both went upstairs. About this time, I saw a man pass the north window, when I called to them to come down. Just after they came down, a heavy discharge of buckshot came in at the north window, from the direction. I saw the man. The shot lodged in the lining of the room, near the foot of my bed. My husband and Napoleon SIMPSON both fired from the north window. Napoleon SIMPSON then opened the door. and discharged a shot from the same, in a few seconds after which a shot was made, and he, the said Napoleon SIMPSON, fell to the floor, exclaiming, "Now, who did that?" He lived only about three-quarters of an hour after he fell. Q. Q. A. Q. Q. Did you see any person at the time he was shot? No. Was there any more shooting from those outside, after he fell? No. Do you know who first opened the door? A. No. How many persons did you see outside the house during the affray? A. One. A. . Mr. Theodore GARDNER, being duly sworn, testified as follows: Q. Where were you on the first alarm? A. Upstairs, in bed. Q. What did you first hear? A. The first word .1 heard spoken was, "What do you want?" I think it was by my father. The next I heard was a man, unknown to me, reply, "Open the door, G-d d-m you!" I next heard shooting. I saw one man, soon after the shooting at the door, leading a horse a short distance from the house, going northwest. He did not shoot while I saw him. I do .not know whether he had gun. This affray took place between twelve and one o'clock on Saturday morning, June 9th. "I do not think the affray lasted more than ten minutes. I heard a heavy shot, and immediately afterwards I heard Napoleon SIMPSON exclaim, "0 Lord!" who did that?" After he fell, I heard him.say, "Fight!· Fight hard!" I saw him lying on the floor upon his face. I heard no more shooting after he fell, by anyone outside. I do not know how long he lived, for I left soon after for assistance. Q. Did you see more than one man during this affray? A. Not positively. Q. Would you recognize the man you saw? A. No. �29 Jos. GARDNER con't: Miss Mary W. GARDNER, being duly sworn, testified: Q. Where were you at the time this affray took place? A. Upstairs, in bed. Q. What did you first hear? A. The barking of dogs. Q. At what time was this attack made? A.About one o'clock a.m. on the morning June 9th, 1860. Q. Did you hear any conversation at the door? A. I heard my father ask, "Who is there?" The reply was, "Open the door, sir." My father then asked, "What do you want?" The answer was, with an oath, "Open the door!" Q. What next occurred? A. I heard the door opened, and several shots followed, in quick succession. Q. Did you see any person during this time? A.. No. Q. About how long did the affray last? A. About ten minutes. Q. Did you remain upstairs all the time. A. Yes. Q. Did you hear or do you know anything in relation to the matter of the death of Napoleon SIMPSON? A. I heard the door opened, and some shooting soon after. I heard sometliing fall heavily upon. the floor, and at the same time I heard his voice exclaim. "0 Lord!" now who did that?" I afterwards heard groans, which I was confident proceeded from him. Q. Did you see him before he died, after the affray? A. No, when I first saw him he was dead, lying upon the floor. Q. Were there any shots fired through the room where you were? A. None that I know of. Dr. E.G. MACY, after being duly sworn, testified as follows: On the morning of the 9th of June, 1860, I and Dr. THOMPSON went to the house of Joseph GARDNER. As we went into the house we saw the dead body of Napoleon SIMPSON, lying upon the floor, on his left side and abdomen, face down, his shirt and sheet upon which he lay all covered with blood. After several of our neighbors had gathered, I and some of them washed and dressed him. By. moving the clothing that was under and upon him, we saw several pools of clotted or coagulated blood upon the floor. In turning him over, we saw a wound upon his body, consisting of two holes, each three-quarters of an inch in diameter, one inch apart, entering the body at the left superior portion of the thorax or chest--one hole or orifice below the clavicle or collar bone, the other orifice or hole immediately upon the bone, showing very evidently that the wounds were made by buckshot, discharged from a gun, forcing their way toward the lower and outer edge of the scapula or shoulder blade of the left side, some three or four of them passing out of the body on the left Side, just under the left arm; some two or three more balls of shots, were nearly;'through. I' cut. one of them out--it was of the largest size buckshot. His left shoulder was literally shot to atoms. Dr. THOMPSON picked up from the floor two or three small pieces of bone that had fallen out of the wounds. These wounds were the cause of his death. Q. Are you a physician? A. 1. am. Q. Did you see anything at Mr. GARDNER's house implicating any person? A. I saw scraps or fragments of. paper scatted upon the floor between the left window and stair-casing, indicating as though they had been shot from a gun; they were powder-burns. When the fragments were arranged as the pieces indicated or fitted, it read as I have shown you. �Jos. GARDNER Con't: 30 LETTER FROM MR. GARDNER Mr. Editor: In compliance with 'your request, to submit for the readers of your paper a statement, in connection with the testimony elicited at the coroner's inquest, held at my house, upon the dead body of Napoleon SIMPSON, as to the probable cause of such an attack, I say that I know of no cause, only that I have established the.reputation of hostility to slavery. What have I ever done to warrant such conduct7 The first thing that ever brought my name into.public notice.was my connection in July last, with the rescue of Dr. DOY? from his unjust imprisonment in St. Joseph, Mo. The circum~ . stances connected with this case are too well known ,in this community to require restipulation in this connection. In addition to this, I have, in connection with many others of our citizens, taken sides in the great dispute that is convulsing this nation from one extreme to the other. On one side we see the weak, the poor, the ignorant, contending for their liberty against the strong, the rich and powerful. There comes to my. door one of the former, asking for food and shelter and protection. My nature tells me to give him aid 'and comfort. ' I f a man is passing my house with a thousand dollars in his pocket, and I, know that a.short distance beyond, a company of highwaymen are in ambush, intending to rob' him of his treasure, it is my duty to inform him of his danger, and render him assistance. All good men would hold me responsible if I did not. If, in place of the supposed treasure, the traveler has himself, as it were, in his pocket, and I know the hunters to be upon his track, it is my duty to put him upon his guard, and, in the same .por,portion as "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" is more than the thousand dollars ,just so much more is the duty binding upon me to render him the necessary assistance. This proposition is so plain to my mind, that I know not how to attempt a demonstration. In fact, it is an axiom. And it is for holding these sentiments, and daring to express them, that I am thus hunted down .by midnight assassins. I know this to be the case from the 'fact that men in this vicinity, who are on friendly terms with me on other matters, are giving encouragement to this movement. One man, whom I helped to place in official position in this county, under the impression that he·had a soul, now says that he has about as much respect for those men who made the attack upon my house as he has for me. Others have said that they wished it had been me, instead of SIMPSON, who got shot. And this is very evident, for he had been sold but a short' time ago for$I,500, to a slave trader who had bought him for a southern market. This is the reason why he left the home of his childhood. He had made his escape to a land of safety, but returned to rescue his wife and children from the prison house of slavery, thus establishing his bravery as well as his affection for his family. While he was lying upon my floor, weltering in his blood, I asked what I could do for him. The only reply he made was, "Fightf Fight hard!" Talk about the expressions of great generals on the field of battle. A braver man never bled or died, not fought in a better cause than that same Napoleon SIMPSON. It is said by some of my neighbors that I can no longer live in this county. They mistake their man, if they suppose they can frighten me by any such threats. Never, while' I have an existence on this earth, will I ask any man where I shall live, or what I shall say: or do. I have a family, who are dependent upon.my exertions, to a considerable extent, for the means of subsistence. While I am unmolested, their comfort is my only study. If the cause in which I feel so deep an interest has friends enough �31 Jos. GARDNER con't: in this vicinity to sustain ourselves, joining hands with me for mutual protection and self-defense, it is all well enough. When you hear of this point being taken or surrendered " count· me and many valued friends among those who have gone from works to rewards. If this attack had endangered no one but myself, I should feel vastly different. . But when it comes to discharging shot promiscuously into a house occupied by innocent women and harmless children, it is too much for our nature to withstand. I may not live to see an end of American slavery, but while I do live, no man shall exceed me in hostility to that institution, only as he has the ability. to hate with a more deadly hatred than is in my power to do. But I have said enough, and yet less would not seem to meet the case. I have the honor to be Yours for Freedom, JOSEPH GARDNER' 1-- - -, - - - -., - --- ~'-"----,".-.--~. -._- I The Joseph GARDNER cabin i was located. in the southern part of Clinton Township on land which is now owned'by M.

November 16, 1897 EUDORA The memories of,old Chas. 'BLUE 'JACKET who died a few days ago in the Indian Territory, is not forgotten by over two dozen of the old settlers now with us. BLUE JACKET lived four miles up Wakarusa creek and left there over thirty years ago. He was a half breed Indian and established what was then known as "Blue Jacket's crossing." In early history this was the only crossing on this creek for twenty miles away, and there he lived during early Kansas troubles and kept a kind of hotel for free state men as well as Mrs. STEVENS. After Kansas was admitted to the sisterhood of states the tribe to which he belonged were moved to the southeast with Shawnee town as headquarters. Twenty-six years ago the tribe went to the Indian territory with BLUE JACKET as one of their chiefs. Some two weeks ago he came back to Wyandotte county to locate the grave of one of the prophets, and while there he was taken sick, and lived only a few days after reaching home. The tribe wished to locate their Jacket's grave to erect a monument there. BLUE JACKET was 80 years old and had twenty-six sons and daughters, ten of whom are now living over in Wyandotte county and the rest scattered over the territory. He was here when the village of Eudora was laid out and for' years was a conspicuous figure on the streets. He came to the state sixty-five years ago when a yoth of 15 years of age. He was widely known in later years as a preacher of some talent as a pulpit orator among his Indian friends. November 16, 1900 KAW VALLEY Young Thos.

The Independent, Oskalo~sa, Ks., Feb. 18, 1865 THE'FRAUD CONSUMATED Money and persevering efforts in a wicked cause ,have succeeded with the citizens of Lawrence in robbing us of a portion of our territory. No scheme of the kind was ever more unjust; no similar attempt more flagrantly outrageous; and the rights of part'ies interested never more ruthlessly trampled upon by unprin~ipled tyranny. Without justice ,or the shadow of right; without any but the robber's plea; against the, expressed wishes of nine-tenths of the people on the cut-off,this vile measure has been pushed through the legiklature by means of corruption and bribery. No unprejudiced member voted for the bill on the merits of the measure. Misrepresentation, bribery and promises of place' or help on the part of Lawrence, did the work, which was conceived in villainy and consummated in fraud and corruption. I HON. M.R. DUTTON Made a strong fight on the County Line bill, and deserves and has the thanks of his constituents for the same, we believe, unanimously. But the money and promises qf'Lawrence were too much. What could not be carried by fair means w~s rushed through by pressure. Lawrence men were at the capital for three or four weeks, using every means to rush their criminal measure througli.;,knowing that they could not,make a showing on the merits of the case, 'they commenced by 'raising a corruption fund, variously set down at ftom eight thousand ,to forty thousand dollars; and upon this and lobby work they relied exclusively.' They well knew that the people on the territory did not wish to leave this county and go to theirs. They knew they had not an argument to use founded in justice and right; ,but they hadmoney.;..-and even the bones of their dead were conjured up to help them!--an.d against this our representative, upon whom 'the whole brunt of the,battle fell, could not successfully contend.

We have known the deceased since a prattling babe, and in her girlhood I days, her mature years, land as a Wife, and mother, and during each year of our acquaintance our love and admiration for her has increased. Kate was an obediant daughter, a lovkng and kind sister, and a most devoted,unselfish wife. She was a Christi~n in its true sense, charitable to the poor, attentive to the ailing, and kind iind.gentle to all. In her death all have lost a friend, and all who knew her deeply mourn her loss. To her bereaved husband, and to her sad and sorrowing fa~ily we truly and deeply sympathize.

' There were twelve charter members. Among them were Abraham ROTHROCK and wife; Steven STUDEBAKER and wife; Daniel STUDEBAKER and wife; Daniel KEENY(?) and wife; Jacob }U\RKL~Y and wife; Isaac B. HOOVER; and David KINZIE. At this meeting the first election was held among the Brethren in the State of Kansas, with Danie] STUDEBAKER being elected to the ministry, Isaac B. HOOVER, to the office ,of Deacon, and Abraham ROTHROCK chosen as Elder in charge. The first recorded Worship service held by this group was May '22, 1859 at the Jacob ULRICH home. (This was a Love Feast service.)* During the drouth year,s of, the 1860' s this group was very active in administering aid to fellow Brethren and friends who were in need. On Dec. 22, 1863, Jacoh ULRICH, the prime mover of the congregation died! On May 28, 1864, John C. METSKER was elected to the office of Deacon. Also in 1864, James E. HI~Y was elected to the ministry. The first building used'forworship was bought March 19, 1864, and was used until Nov. 23, 1869, when it was sold. The first building the congregation erected was in 1877, at the present site of Pleasant Grove, Kansas. This building is no longer ~tanding. I April 2, 1881, this:congregation separated with the eastern section of area staying at the Pl~asant Grove site, and chose the' name Pleasant Grove, for their name, with James E. HILKEY, being elected Elder in charge. The western section of the;area retained the name of Washington Creek, and Peter BRUBAKER was elected Elder in charge. The Weybright School was used for Worship service until 1885, when the present building was erected. John C. METSKER was a ~trong moving force in building this church. On On Sept. 13; 1885, thebuilding'wasdedicated, with love feast being held at this time.

The Love Feast or full communion, which includes the ceremony of footwashing, was observed as a reenactment of the Lord's last supper with His disciples in the upper room before His betrayal. and crucifixion. The scriptural basis for the Love Feast is found in John, Chapter 13.; Here.we read, speaking ... of Jesus, 'He riseth.fromst,lpper, and laid aside'his garments, arid. took a towel, and girded himself. After that he poureth water into a basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the 'towel with which he was girded. After ,he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was seated again, ;he said, unto them, Know ye what I have done to you? Ye call me Haster and Lord; and ye say well; for so I am. If I, then, your Lord and H~ster,have washed your feet, ye also. ought to wash one another's feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.' The Brethren combined all three elements found in John 13; that is, supper, footw:ashing, and the breaking of bread and drinking of the cup, and called it: their Love Feast or full communion."

Kelley C~~L CREEK iI :-'~ ~ L'BRAR~-- . __ VIt:JJ.,A.I'!IJ.KnN, -, _ North of Baldwin City in Palmyra Township, Douglas County, Kansas, a number of home sites were located along the Coal Creek. This area was known as Coal Creek until the construction of the Leavenworth, Lawrence and Galveston Railroad facilitated the establishment of a post office on September 25, 1868. This post office was housed in the farm home of the postmaster, George CUTTER. It was called Vin1and although the application had specified the spelling to be Vineland, since this area was well-known for the large Concord vineyards near~by, especially in the William E. Barnes Nursery. There were sixteen postmasters--two of them--George CUTTER and Thomas BAKER serving two terms. This is a copy of the list of Vin1and Postmasters as recorded by the National Archives and Record Service, Washington 25, D.C. George CUTTER William H. RUSSELL H.N. WILLIAMS George CUTTER John W. SIMMONS Joseph ILIFF David A. HAGERMAN Thomas C. BAKER James G. ILIFF Thomas C. BAKER David G. KENNEDY, Jr. Charles L. BROWN Elmer E. HAGERMAN Mrs. Martha L.MILBERN Miss Bernice HAGERMAN William E.

They were: W. E. (Gene) HOSKINSON Udah S. KING Jessie E. KING (now Mrs. Webb FENTON) Scott HANSEN The post office was established September 25, 1868 and was discontinued April 30,.1954. I t began in the home of George CUTTER which was called Island Prairie because it stood on top of a small rise above the surrounding grass1and.Herein the CUTTER home the Coal Creek Library books were first housed. George was both postmaster and librarian. The post office ended iIi the Coal Creek Library, a small red imitation-brick building just west of the Vin1and Presbyterian Church where at one time Dr. James Naismith, inventor of the game of basketball, preached to ,the people of Vin1and. �44 Vin1and Post Office continued-Usually the post office was located in a public building such as a store, but occasionally it was in a private home. This was the case with postmasters H. W. WILLIAMS as well as George CUTTER. The CUTTER home was located on a knoll just southeast of the present site of the Vin1and United Methodist Church while the WILLIAMS' residence was just west ·of the old Santa Fe Depot where the Vin1and Airport is now located. Here too, were the books of the.Coa1 Creek Library housed for Mrs. WILLIAMS was librarian and Mr. WILLIAMS was postmaster. RUSSELL, BAKER, KENNEDY, BROWN, HOSKINSON, REUSCH and'both David and Elmer HAGERMAN were store proprietors. Three generations of HAGERMANS were postmasters--David,. his son, Elmer and Elmer's granddaughter, Bernice. SIMMONS was a physician as well as a farmer and lived on the hill just south of Vin1and now known as Simmon's Hill. He may have had an office in Vin1and or perhaps distributed mail out of one of the stores. His home was on the top of the hill near KIBBEE Cabin, later known as the BARRICKLOW Cabin where the "seeds for Baker University were first germinated." One of the most colorful characters was Joseph ILIFF--carpenter" tinsmith, cobbler, store proprietor and local preacher. His son, James, was also postmaster beginning in June of 1893. Rural Carrier Service forVin1and began some time in January 1906, when W.E. (Gene) HOSKINSON was appointed the first carrier. Because of family health problems, Gene relinquished the position after a few months. Sometime in the spring or summer of 1906, Udah S. KING took over the route and held the appointment until he died of typhoid fever in September 1918. His daughter, Jessie, then carried the mail for three years. Her successor was Scott HANSEN who served for many years. At first the mail was carried in a horse-drawn vehicle with its sides painted red, white and blue. In the spring of 1918, Mr. KING bought a mode1-T Ford and his daughter, Jessie, who was a senior in high school at that time went along with him to crank the car and help with the mail. ) Jessie KING FENTON relates an interesting incident connected with that first civil service exam for the carriers. It was agreed among those taking the test that the one chosen for carrier would give.an oyster supper for the others. It so happened that Gene HOSKINSON was selected for the job and thus became host for the supper. As Udah's wife was unable to attend, Udah asked his daughter, Jessie, to be his partner. So Jessie attended the supper with her father and later became a carrier herself. Three women served as postmistresses. They were Mrs. Martha L. MILBERN, 1937-1941; Miss Bernice HAGERMAN, 1941-1942; and Mrs. Alma F. HEINRICH, 1947 to .Apri1 30, 1954, when the post office atVin1and was formally closed. Many of the Vin1and residents were then served by the Baldwin City Post Office. During that period of time, the post office was located in the Coal Creek Library building which was built in 1900 especially to house the accumulation of library books. Mrs. HEINRICH was both librarian and post..,. mistress. Thus theVin1and Post Office began and ended in the same location as the Coal Creek Library. Katharine B.

The house was artistically decorated with autumn leaves, jack-o-1anterns, witches and black cats. There was a ghost parade which started in the cellar and ended in the garret, where there was a horrible death chamber. Miss Helen STRICKLES of Topeka handed out fortunes in a nutshell. When supper was served the guests were seated on the floor in a circle, with a Jack-o-1antern in the center and each took their turn telling ghost stories. �47 Halloween Party Con't. Interview with James B. WIGGINS, 1984 and 1985: "After Hattie and I were married; and were living here at this house, we had a Halloween party. Janet FINK, a teacher boarding down at Mrs. HARRISON's-~Hattie's aunt down below here--and Hattie put on a Halloween party. They had the people come into the house through an outdoor cellar entrance. In the basement, we had a'cornshock, and a black cat yowling back in there, and we told ghost stories. Some of the girls screamed and yelled. They had to come on.through another dark cellar 'and come up some steps. When they came up those steps, they were greeted with someone shaking~' hands with them--a kid glove filled with sawdus t--s limy! Oh, they screamed and yelled! They took them through this dark room upstairs. In this upstairs, they had a bed with a sheet over something. There was an old hermit--an old outlaw who lived down below, and someone was telling a ghost story about him--that he had died and they boiled the meat off his bones. Under this sheeted bed was what . .was supposed to be this old hermit. We told some terrible ghost stories!" "There weren't 30 people at the party.

POSTMA, Lawrence,:Kansas. , Kansas Daily Tribune, Lawrence, Kansas, April 25, 1867 THE EARTHQUAKE. Our city was the scene of the liveliest excitement, about 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, that it has been our fortune to witness. There is no doubt but this section was honored with a veritable, genuine, old-fashioned earthquake~one that would be a credit to localities a little closer to the quaky regions of the globe. ' We were pursuing our usual avocation, on the third story of the building, everything quieter than usual, when suddenly, without warning, the building connnenced shaking in a manner that plainly indicated something wrong. Our . first impression was that the floor was giving way, and. accordingly we made a hasty transit to the corridor at the head of the stairs. At this juncture the compositors and printers came·rushing out of their rooms with an alacrity that was surprising, and someone exclaimed that the building was falling. The continued and increasing shaking of the whole building fully justified that view, and we suddenly came to the conclusion that we wanted to get out, and that badly, too. We started to go down stairs, but the thought struck �63 The Earthquake (cont.) us that going down two long flights of stairs,·with a three-story brick building traveling the same direction, was not quite the thing. In this dilemma, one of the boys threw up the window opening on the roof of the adjoining building, and if ever a set of fellows went through a window in less time, we want them to come here and let us see them do it. We ran to the cone of the roof, and found it was shaking as badly as the one left, and accordingly ran to the next roof. It was jarring very perceptibly, and, looking down in the street, we saw the whole city going through about the same maneuver that we were at. Everyone was rushing out in the street, and fellows engaged on the upper stories were coming down, six steps at a jump, hair flying and eyes popped·out, in away that'showed something the matter. As soon as we saw it was a general complaint we .felteasier, and left our perch for the street. When we went down the whole city was out, and everyone concurred that it was a serious shock. Everything of a movable nature was rattled in an alarming manner, and in many places plastering was cracked and fell from the walls. A large stone was loosened and fell from the top of the Unitarian Church, and in many houses and stores small articles were thrown ,from the walls. There· is no denying that it was a rather serious scene, and we saw a good many white faces on the street, after it was over. From the telegraph operator we learn it was felt at St. Jo., Leavenworth, Wyandotte, and as far west as the railroad line extends. It lasted about one and a half minutes, according to the report of persons who profess to have timed it. There is no doubt but something. is wrong with the internal arrangements of Mother Earth; but it is to be hoped sh~ will attempt to rectify it in other sections, and not take her medicine in Kansas. I The current of the river was checked by the earthquake, causing it to rise in waves of some height. A tub nearly full of water, in front of Filley & DeWolf's store, was almost emptied by the shock. ·Nothing was talked of, or thought of, last evening, but the earthquake. Everyone had his or her experience to relate, and the whole history of earthquakes was overhauled, and a great many theories advanced, and speculations as to the cause, etc. One little boy gave as plausible a solution as anyone that we heard. He gravely·informed a companion, who was evidently not so well posted, that he "guessed the earth had the bellyache." We judge that boy will be a professor in a district school yet. We could find no one who was frightened, or felt any fear at the time:of the occurrence. One fellow was detailing his coolness, when another impolitely exclaimed, ; "What in the h--l did you run down stairs so fast for, if you wasn't scared?" "Run!" said our hero, "Why, I ran out to see what was the matter." That was just the way with us~we simply went out at the window to see if anything was up. I ---_.----------- --.---------- --'-- .• Kansas. Daily Tribune, Nov; 3, 1867, Lawrence, Ks. ·SHOT.-A son of Mr. John SCHOTT, of this city, was accidentally , shot through the hand.

If that don',t look as if Lawrence was a business town, we have no conception of what would. It was no extraordinary occasion and scarcely indicated a difference from the ordinary business of our place. Frequently citizens of other points of the state are heard to express great surprise at these exhibitions of the active business enterprise of our beautiful city. Submitted by Pauline B.

To be continued �86 MAJOR DAVID STARR HOYT THE HERALD OF FREEDOM, Lawrence, Saturday, June 27, 1857 Major HOYT, who was assassinated last summer, near Fort Saunders, and hastily buried by his friends on Rock Creek eight miles from Lawrence, was disinterred on Tuesday last, the 23rd and brought to this place and buried with military honors. The services were conducted in the Unitarian Church, with the choir furnishing some beautiful music. The Rev. LOVEJOY delivered an oration, and the Lawrence Brass Band closed with one of their mournful and solemn airs. His remains were followed to the grave by the Oread Guards and by a large concourse of citizens, accompanied by music from the Band. He lies buried between the lamented ,BARBER and the brave SHOMBE, in the Lawrence burying ground. So long as men love liberty and hate slavery, so long as they venerate the brave and true, so long as they love principle more than life, so long will they visit the graves of these martyrs to liberty to strengthen their manhood, increase their courage, and kindle the flame of patriotism by the memories of the glorious dead. David Starr HOYT was born in Deerfield, Mass., in the year 1821. He was therefore 35 years old, at the time of his death. He leaves behind an orphan child, a daughter, aged six years. He served in Scott's army in Mexico, and was in every battle from Vera Cruz to the City of Mexico. He was considered a brave 'and valuable soldier. He was a scholar and, a man of varied attainments. In 1852, he was with Stephen's surveying party, in running out the Northern Pacific Railroad route, from Oregon to Wisconsin. His services were highly appreciated and well rewarded by the Government. In March, 1856, he came to Kansas with a quantity of Sharp's rifles, which were taken from him at Lexington on the Missouri River. From that time forward he served the cause of freedom faithfully and without interruption, until the time of his death. In the summer of 1856, the Georgia guerilla companies concentrated under Col. TREADWELL, and commenced building fortifications and furnishing themselves with military stores on Washington Creek, ten miles southwest of Lawrence, on the claim of a Mr. SAUNDERS. Word went out from this post and others of a similar character that all the Free-state men must leave the Territory or be killed, but that any Free Mason might come in and he should be safe. The settlers became alarmed at these frequent threats and applied to Major SEDGWICK, commander of the U.S. dragoons at Lecompton to drive them away, or allow them to go do it. Major SEDGWICK sent over'an officer with a company of soldiers, to examine into it, and gather information. The officer reported that there was a company of Southern men building a town and the logs they were hauling were for cabins. New developments continued to alarm the inhabitants, and they applied to the people of Lawrence for assistance. In order to determine what course should be pursued, it became necessary to send a messenger to Col. TREADWELL to ascertain what his objects and intentions were. Major HOYT volunteered to go. Trusting to the honor of Col. TREADWELL as a brother Mason, he expressed perfect confidence in the safety of the enterprise. He left Lawrence in the afternoon of August 11, 1856, ent~rely unarmed and stayed all night with a friend, (Augustus WATTLES), near Bloomington, and in the morning went over to Washington Creek to Saunders Fort. �87 Major David Starr HOYT (con't.) He stayed there until after dinner, left, was followed out on the pral.rl.e by three men and shot. Early next morning, word came in that a man was shot near the Fort Saunders by the Georgians who were under Col. TREADWELL. Two boys who were near the scene of action, witnessed the deed. As Major HOYT did not return as was expected, his friends became painfully anxious for his fate. A large company of Free State men gathered, and established a camp at Dr. E.G. MACY's, on Rock Creek. They sent over a company of thirty men, under the command of Capt. SHOMBE, to search for the body. They called upon Col. TREADWELL for information as to where it was buried, but could get none. After searching nearly all day without success, they fortunately met a company of surveyors who had seen the grave, and directed them to it. He was doubled up and thrown into a hole, his knees projecting from the ground. They took him up,placed him in a wagon, and then carried him to the camp., On being examined by the physicians, it was discovered that he had been shot from behind,the fatal ball entering the back of the head and passing out at the forehead. His face was thickly covered with corrosive sublimate, so as to destroy his identity as soon as possible, and probably in twelve hours more, it would have been destroyed. A strong box was provided by 'Henry HIATT of Bloomington, in which his remains were deposited, and he was temporarily buried ina beautiful grove on the banks of Rock Creek. H~ has lain there in peace a little over ten months, when our citizens have performed the last sad rite of burial, by consigning him to his final resting place. Note: It is not surprising that Henry HIATT would provide a burial box for Major HOYT. Prior to his own death'in 1900 at the age of 84, he completed a coffin for himself which he carved 'from a large log. Submitted by Martha J. PARKER, Clinton, KS. * * * ** Western Home Journal, Lawrence, Ks., May 25, 1882 Clinton Items Editor of the Journal: Clinton~ May 20, 1882 Mr. Carson WICKS has been quite sick in the last few weeks, but is now ,able to be up and around. He expects to move to Lawrence before long. Capt. G.W. UMBARGER, an old settler of Douglas County, will move to Barbour county before long, where he expects to make his future home. Mr. William and Clarence WICKS ,are talking of going West before long. Mr. 'Ira STEELE, of Belvoir, has sent a large drove of cattle to Barbour county. A good many in this neighborhood are planting sugar cane quite extensively. They evidently do not expect to waste any sweetness on the desert air next fall. P.P.

' , Eudora has always had many different churches because it's early settlers came from Europe where you find a church Or;t nearly every hil~ . and down in the valley. They are very old and historlc churches. and:-. well kept.Many have beautiful murals and paintings in them because the neople could not read the Bible so the pictures told the Bible story -from the Creation to the start of the early churches. The Church was important to our European settlers as a vital part of their religious and social life.Soon after Eudora was se·ttled in 1857 worship was started in hOmes as Missions,then in larger buildings until the membership grew so a church building was built. The first known church services in Eudora was before its founding when the ~hawneeIndian Chief Paschal Fish,Jr. asked for a Mission school here to provide schooling and religion for his Tribe and others childrenoThe Wakarusa Shawnee Indian Methodist Mission was built at about 1215 Elm Street. The Mission was a two story,rough-hewn building of native lumber with a thatched roof and Dr.Abram still was the Missionary in charge of building the Mission school and director.He was a l1ethodist Minister a medical doctor,teacher,carpenter and farmeroOne son,Dr.AoT.Still practiced here and founded Osteopathy and another son,Dr. James still practiced here many years at 806 Main St.The Still's gave land and. helped to start Baker University. Chief Fish,Jr. was also a licensed Minister by the Methodist Church and helped with church services.The Mission started in 1851 and prob<~ ably closed in 1854 because of the slavery problem. Then Circuit Preachers continued to serve Eudora until the churches were established. The next earliest church 1s the Clearfield Evangelical,now United Methodist,which began as a Class Meeting by German Evangelicals in 1858 with a Circuit Rider Missionary Preacher,who sometimes could come only once in three months o These preachers usually wore out several horses each year and lived only at an average age of thirty-five. They often slept on the prairie grass which was taller than their head when seatoo on their horse.They had only a few trails,practicallY'no bridges and ;. rode in the heat,dust,rain,storms,sleet,severe cold,snow and wind. When the Preacher came to a certain area the word got around and people came for miles around,walking,in lumber wagons,buggies and on horsebackoThey brought a basket dinner and spent the entire day in worship and Christian fellowshipoPeople from other denominations came too as some preachers could only get around once in six weeks or SOo Later when schools were built church worship was held in them until churches could be erected. Clearfield was first called Captain's Creek and was a part of the Evangelical Mission Circuit of Franklin.Sermons were in German there but communication was difficult because these German pioneers came from different provinces in Germany and each province spoke German a little differentlyo In 1861 a Camp meeting was held on the Schendel and Heeder farms and they lasted a we.ek and people lived in their wagons and they held them when the moon was full. In 1880 the Clearfield Church was built on land donated by George Hausman.The head carpenter was William Deckwa who organized the men and members did the building themselves. The original Chancel railing is still in use in the present church.The men made the pews and a high railing down the middle of the church to separate the men and women,a common practice,also in the Quaker,Methodist and other early churches. 1~en the wind was strong, plaster fell on the heads of the worshippers until George Schattenberg put in a beautiful wooden ceiling.Kerosene lamps and wood burning stoves were used until 1907 or 8 0 �... '. '-Y ~ ,. 89 ~- - ----- - --- - Acetylane lights were~sed until 1917. In 1945 the Evangelicals merged with the United Brethren to form the Evangelical United Brethren Church and in 1968 merged with the Hethodis t Church to form the United Hethodist Church.Clearfield E. u. B. and Salem E.U.B. in Eudora shared the same pastor until 1966 and then Clearfield was joined with Wordeno Li ttle information is available about Harmony Free He thodis t Church but a group started in 1856 from the Methodist Circuit rider days in the Harmony schoolhouse six miles south and two and one half miles we$ of Eudora on the north side of the road until 1857 when a church was built one halfmile east and one half mile south of the school on the John Edmond Nichols farm.Mrs. Nichols funeral was tha last religious service held in the building Aug.,I9I8.Rev. Lovejoy was a Methodist Circuit Preacher but felt he had more "elbow room" with Free Hethodists and was the minister there.This seemed to be an English speaking church. Captain's Creek Methodist Church was organized ~n 1859 as a German speaking Class Meeting on the Johnson,Douglas County line, southeast of Eudora.Brother August Mecke served the church first,no regular minister was available ex cept Circuit preachers.During the Civil War,Eudora and Captain's Cree1Cwere with Lawrence on a Circuit.This church was often c alled"Little Blue" because the walls were painted blue inside at one time.The building was erected in 1882 on land donated by the Joe Millers.The land first belonged to a Shawnee Indian named Adams.He sold it to Ed Knabe's father.Ed's widow married Joe Millero Captain's Creek and Eudora Methodist were served by the same minister until 1955 when Eudora secured a full time pastor.VJhen Captain's Creek disbanded a few years later some came to Eudora,Clearfield,Edg6.~­ ton and Gardner.The building is on the Wesley Brecheisen farm and used for storage. . The German Methodist Church began with Class Meetings in 1859 jointly with Captain's Creek and Lawrence Circuit.This group purchased the home at 6th and Main Street in I870.Worship was on the second floor am the minister lived downstairs. In I88r a new frame church was built between eighth and ninth street on Church Street on the west side while Rev.John Ehrsman was the minis~er and in r884 a parsonage was built by Frank Brender but it burned in 1926. This church was torn down and parts of it were used in the buildine of the home at 825 Locust sto Some of the r868 records'mention these people: C.Steinm.eyer,H.: . ..l,.r Rausch, J oGutknecht,Fr.Weibel,AoBromelsick, Julius S.Miller.F. W.l1eyer, Hunziker,~origott(early German name meaning ~ust) Gabriel,Holzappel, D.Huller or Mutter,Ed Capeo The local minister H.Meyer was reminded to have a written report of loc~l conditions of parsonage which had been built in Lawrence,papering etco and if he retracted what he said his license would be renewed. A supervisory committee was appointed Aug.r868 of Three men to examine the character of the minister and another committee of three men were appointed to examine the minister's license to preach.He must have met their requests as he was granted a new license.

Hesper Friends Church(originally called Quakers) first met at the home of Jonathan and Phebe Mendenhall in I86I,one mile east of Hespe~ In 1862 the group was granted a Preparative Meeting called Springfiel~ A meeting house twenty-four feet square was built of native lumber hauled from Leavenworth. (This are was mostly prairie bluestem grass in those days;few treesL) The first families besides the Hendenhalls were ;George T.Rogers, William and Penelope Gardner,Winslow ,Margaret and Adela Davis,John :: _" Hills ,most all from North Carolina. They were against slavery,military service,oaths,lotteries and paying wages to n.nisters but even in early years had women ministers.They spent much time in worship by silent meditation. In 1864 the Kansas Quarterly Meeting granted them a Monthly Neet ...~ ing.In 1871 members living east of Captain's Creek in Johnson County was granted a Preparative Meeting and in 1872 named it Centre.In 1882 a new meeting house was built, a thirty by fifty foot building at Hesperr and the name changed from Springfield to the name of the town, Hesper. The Church started planning for an Academy and in 1884 started the two year High School called Hesper Academy which served until Eudora High School was built in I9I5.The Church also provided for a Cemetery B near the Church. English was spoken at Hesper,which was three miles south and one mile east of Eudora. The Catholic Church at 300 east 9th Street is the oldest church building in the area.The members organized in 1863 but they must have worshipped together before then because we are told that a Jewish merchant(probably Asher and Cohn) let the Catholic congregation worship . in their general store when a priest could come to town.(Eudora has always been ecumenically minded'citizen's).We have also read that one man in early days walked the seven miles to Lawrence to worship in a Catholic serviceptaking all day for the trip and service. The Catholic Church,Holy Family Church,building first was a 20X 48 ft. room on the southeast built in 1864 by the ~ople.John Kellerman owned land east of Eudora where the limestone rock was quarried. Men who hau1ed the stones with horse and wagons were, Jacob Pabst, Mike Branagan,John Welch and James Brazil.Masons were Casper Weber and Franz Blechel and some good Lutherans,which was referring to the St.paul Evangelical Church members. Other men helping were; Fred Faerber(Eudora's first mayor),Anton Gufler,LW.Pfeif and Leo Vitt. CarDenter's were,Joseph Hertz,Peter Ha~tig(Captain of the first group of Germans to settle Eudora),and John Kellerman,who also made a beautiful Altar.They made the inside trim and furniture too. There was not enough money to buy a bell,so all of Eudora's people gave money to buy a bell to be rung at 7:00 a.m.,I2 noon and 6:00 p.m. as it still is.It is now in front of the new ChurchoMr.Greiner rang it for many years. German and Latin was spoken in the church and it maintains a cemetery and for many years had a Parochial School for elementary students and provided a home for the Sisters who taught the children • . St. Paul Evangelical Church was organized Deco27,1868 by Rev. Christian Haas under the auspices of the Evangelical &ynod of North America.This group of Germans met in homes until the first church was completed in 1871. The present building was built in 1913 and services were started in English in 1916.1n 1919 one Sunday per month worship was in German.In 1934 this church joined the Reformed Church and the Union of the Congregational Christian Church and is now known as the St. Paul. United Church of Christ. �92 -"-- ------------- Charter members were; Christian Thoren,Conrad and WoAltenbernd, Anton and Anna' Gerstenberger,Ferdinand Vitt,Gottlob Koch,Henry Loesch, christian Strobel,Christian Schneider,Charles Vogelsand,Henrich Wittler, P.G.

The Salem Evangelical Church at 716 Church Street was organized as a German speaking Class Meeting in 1869. The Church was built in 1870 a 26x 40 ft.brick building.The Church was started by Jacob and Chri~tine Strobel.He and his daughters,Caroline and Pauline carried water from the Wakapusa River,over two blocks,uphill,for the mortar for the bricks. Worden,Clearfield,~tull and Eudora were once on a circuit togeth~. Rev.John Wereth organized the church here in 1871 and so~e of these charter members were; Peter Neis,Sr.,Fred Neis,Sr.,Jake l~yers,Jacob Otts,Ernsts and Yosts.In early 1900 only Eudora and Clearfield were on the same circuit. The church joined with the United Brethren Church in 1945. The building was enlarged by a south lecture room and belfry in I905.The rear Annex was built in I956.The entry way window is the Star of David but we do not know why. The Building has been owned by the United Methodist Church since the merger with the Methodists in 1966 and Salem Chapel,as it is now called is loaned to the Eudora Youth Service Organization for youth activities as Boy and Girl Scouts,Cubs and Brownies,4-H,and adult meetings.The EYSO is to keep it in repair but this is a service project of the other Eudora organizations,as well as individuals. Prairie Center had a Friends Church and a Free Methodist Church. 'The Friends began in 1869 but we do not know when the Methodist began but their second church was built in 19I7.These churches were in Johnson County. The Friends Church was started from Hesper Friends and that was called Springfield.Prairie Center was first called just,CENTRE Meetin& In 1888 the spelling was changed to CENTER and in 1894 to Prairie Cen'tPro The first building had a gallery and two steps up where visiting friends and ministers sat although they no pastors then but just religious leaders in the church that were felt to lead and speak. Some of thEe speakers were; Philander Blackledge,Benjamin Nicholson,William Andrew and Jimmy Vestal o The latter sometim es sang as well as spoke from memorYoDavid Ve~tal and Jesse Coltrane were head of the meeting and faced the congregation.When the sun was shining and was straight in the south door they dismissed the meeting by shaking hands oWe do not know when they stopped on cloudy dayso One wedding ceremony was 'performed by the the couple sitting and facing each other ona bench in silence and finally standing and repeating their vows. In 1894 a new church or meeting house was built and Tilghman Couch and Sibyl Andrew sat at the men and women's meeting.Eusebia Couch,mother of Verlan Couch,a Eudora resident many years,ministered for over twenty years and led a Young peoples group,Christian Ende@vor. In 1901 a free will offering was taken to pay the ministers and in 1911 Frank E.Jones asked for pay as a pastor of $8.00 per week in money and a donation of 8 pullets or hens and hay and grain for twenty weeks in winter for the stock and an occasional donation of groceries or wood or both. The government bought the land and the church in 1942 for the Sunflower Ordnance Works but sold the church building back to the Friends where they moved it one-half mile west and one and one half miles south of Prairie Center but in 1959 it was moved to Gardner and called Gardner Monthly Meeting of Friends. �93 --_._------ - -- Kaw Valley Methodist Church was probably organized in early I970 by English speaking people who settled in the Kaw Valley area,northwest of EudoraoThe church building was sold in r888 to the Solon Gilmore1s,who moved it to their farm,a short distance east and who used it for a carriage house. The Church was located west of a brick house where the Jack Hughes family lived many years,about three and one-half miles northwest on the old Eudora Road,also called East r5th Street road o This church was started before the English speaking Methodist Church of r885 was started in Eudora because the Gilmores were among' the organizers of the Engltsh church and Mrs.- Gilmore was the first secretaryo Ther.e were two churches for the large group of Black people here in the Eudora area that probably started about the time the Civil 'dar ended in r864 or the early r870's.One was the Union Church and the other was the Methodist ChurchoThe Black Hethodists held services in the Union church on the first and third Sundays at first and the Union congregation on the second and fourth Sundayso The Union Church was between 6th and 7th street on Church Street, on the east sideoRevoDudley Lee was one of the PastorsoThe Methodist group built a church nearby at 6ro Church street but disbanded it in r920 and it is now a residence. The present church,The First Missionary Baptist Church was built in April 1896 when RevoGeorge Burdett was pastor.He was also a carpenter At one time this church had one hundred and twenty-five members but no longer has services due to lack of attendance as very few black people live in the area any more and those who do are quite elderly. For many years Eudora merchants gave money to help keep the church operating when the membership started to declineo The English Methodist Church was started in 1885 by;Mrso Agnes Fuller,Mrso Tom Rayson,Miss Minnie MCCrea,George Rayson,and Mr.and Mr~ John GilmoreoProbably ~ Kaw Valley Methodist congregation united to form this church. Services were held twice a month and a Baker University student, RevoMeggs conducted these first services.They met. first in the building vacated by the German Methodist congregation at 601 Main St., then in 1886 they purchased the Temperance Tabernacle to the north of the st.Paul U.C.C.Churcho When the English and German congregations united in 1916 the German language was no longer spoken in the sermons.This United group decided to build a new church and the present United Methodist Church at 701 Church Sto was built in 1920-22oRev.John Patterson started the buildi~ program before he left to be a Missionary for Indiaolt was a difficult time to build and the drought years following made it hard for the members to support the building program.

The Church of Christ held services in Roscoe school house,five and one-half miles south of Eudora until 1906,starting in the 1890Is,prob~ ably.-They were sometimes called,ttCampbellites".

For intellectuality, sociability and hospitality we know that they are inferior to none, and for beauty we feel able to take the cake. They have been carrying on for about two years a Literary Social, which they have made a grand success, having not only added to their own intellectual and .social powers, -but have every month opened their doors and invited in their husbands, brothers and friends and given them a treat in the way of some very interesting programs. Such a time was last Friday night, when they met at the house of Mr. and Mrs. E.A. COLEMAN. The large house of the host was full to overflowing of neighbors, and while the children" occupied one room and enjoyed themselves in various games, the elder people filled another and listened to the reading in outline of Howell's "Chaucer Acquaintance," which was read by. Mrs. TOPPING, Mrs. PIERSON and Miss Belle RICHARDSON. The close attention given to the readers showed how their efforts were appreciated, and the look of rapt attention and numerous sighs from the old men showed how their minds were drawn back into the past, when they were young and full of sentiment, and how the book brought vividly to their minds similar scenes in the past, in which they formed a prominent part. After finishing that book, Mrs. CONANT read "A Widow's Christmas," from Harper's, which was received with a great deal qf feeling. Then there was a song by Miss Emma EVANS. Then Rollo DRAPER recited a declamation, followed by a selection by Mr. CONANT. The literary exercises then over, the president said they would have an hour of social talk, which was filled in by friendly greetings among the many present, with some more music, which they all joined in singing, Miss Ida EVANS presiding at the organ. The next meeting is to be a Christmas meeting, in two weeks, at Mr. E.A. COLEMAN's, for the children. In four weeks, at Mr. RICHARDSON's. We left at ten o'clock, and the house was resounding with merry laughter and pleasant voices. Many thanks to the ladies of Kanwaka. May their society always remain on its pleasant and firm foundation. Submitted by Margaret WULFKUHLE ***** Western Home Journal, May 25, 1882 Last Sabbath was a day of special interest to the people of Kanwaka. Their large school-house was filled with an attentive audience, gathered to participate in the organization of a union church. Prof. L.W. SPRING preached an excellent and appropriate sermon, and Rev. H.E. WOODCOC assisted in the organization services, after which the Lord's Supper was observed. Twenty-three persons united with the church and others will join at an early day. Rev. A.M. RICHARDSON, who has been preaching there for some time, is pastor of the church. They hope to build a house of worship in the near future.

Afternoon Was informaL One Heat of a Horse Race Was Pulled Off, There Was Fiddling and Singing and Visiting and Picture Taking. It was thought the limit of enjoyment at Woodland park had been reached with the children's picnic last week, but this proved not to be the case. There was absolute joy with the "Past 75" picnic held there yesterday afternoon. The joy of anticipation was as great as that of realization, and the preparation·for the event impressed everyone with the strong feature that made the occasion such a huge success--the perfect delight of those who were invited to take part. There wasn't much going on at the park~not nearly as much as there will be next year when the· event is repeated--but the gathering under the great old trees, with their carpets of splendid verdure, where the breezes always blow, was enough to make the event enjoyable. The guests gathered and visited; gathered even as the children, before the hour set; and visited as hard as the children played. Then all gathered in the auditorium, where there was some old time fiddling by Captain J.M. SPENCER that made others gathered suggest that a. sort of an old fiddlers program would be an interesting feature another year; there was some singing, too, led by Miss Olivia OLSSON. Then the crowd separated and visited some more, the greater number going to the race track seats to watch a heat or two of a horse race that had been promised. There was an annoying wait, as the horse men were quarreling among themselves about making the race, although they finally emerged from the stables and drove a hap-hazard heat around the track. Then all assembled for the photograph that was to be taken by Lawrence. In the contest for the five-pound box of candy for the spryest of the guests, age considered George KIMBALL and Mrs. Charles PEASE won. There was lots of good lemonade for the visitors, who just had to walk up and show their badges, and get all they wanted, whenever they wanted it. It was a great afternoon, and was worth while.

The FRANCISCO livery barns at 808-10-12 Vermont street, one of the largest of the kind in the city, was sold this morning to Mr. S.C. BYBEE of Garnett, Kansas, who will assume charge as owner with the opening of another year. Negotiations for the sale of the property have been going on for some; time, but always some hitch occurred until the final consummation of the deal this morning. Mr. FRANCISCO has been in business several years and has made a big success of it. Whehheassumed charge several years ago the business was run down more or less, but he has built up and added until now the barn and business is the largest of its kind in the city. Mr. BYBEE, although not assuming absolute charge, will remain here until January next, and will thoroughly familiarize himself with the business and at the same time become acquainted with his Lawrence trade. He is a married man with a family and will move here some time after the opening of next year. Mr. FRANCISCO has not definitely decided upon his future course of action, but will remain here at least until after the barn has passed out of his control . .

'- --..' -~--,,- I J �AN INFORMAL HISTORY OF SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 22, WASHINGTON CREEK SCHOOL. By ELIZABETH K. DUNN The first school building was a log cabin, in the 1850's. In 1860, Darwin E. BOWEN received a patent from President James BUCHANAN and it was from the southwest corner· of this quarter section that he and his wife, Sarah A. BOWEN, on June 24, 1863, deeded an acre of land to District 22 to be used for school purposes. The school. board members at that time were: Joseph LOVELACE, Sylvester CREEL, and Darwin E. BOWEN. On this site a stone 'school house took the place of the old log one. This school house served the district for 60 years. A frame building to replace the stone building was built in 1898. The clerk's annual report for the school year, 1897-1898, carried only the surnames of those of school age: ATTIC, BOYD, BOWEN, BOND, CREEL~ DARNOLD, HASTIE, HYRE, LONGANECKER, PARNERLL, ULRICH, SUTORS, MATNEY, DUNN, EVANS, MARKLEY, McKAY, and HALVERT. I, Elizabeth DUNN, attended Washington Creek School from 1916-1924. Some of my teachers were Edith STRONG, Mary LANDON, Lola WILBUR, Mary A. NORRIS, Mary Leone ISAACS, Alice McTAGGART. Some of the school board members were: Hugo SCHELLHORN, O.P. McNEES, G.E. MARTIN, J.W. BANKS, and D.E. BOND. Some of my classmates during those years were: Inez BOWEN, Neal BANKS, Winston McNEES, Inez MOHLER, Earl MARTIN, Venita BOND, Esta LONGANECKER. I thoroughly enjoyed school and looked forward each September for the year to begin. I enjoyed all the programs, the pie suppers, the last day of school picnics. I t was a happy time in my life. The social life of this community, Washington Creek School, was always an active one, with entire families involved in programs, parties, basket lunches and dinners. The 300 volume library was also in constant use. The disorganization of the district was June 24, 1959, when District 22 became part of the Wakarusa Valley District No. 98. The personal property of the district was sold, the large bell becoming the property of Mr. and Mrs. George BERG, and in the fall of 1984 was sold to Jane WIGGINS. The school house burned after being a rental property for some years.

Mr. DEAY had the respect and esteem of all who knew him. He was nearly 78 years old at the time of his death, was a member of Eudora lodge No. 42 I.O.O.F., and also a member of the Christian church. Funeral services were held at the home Sunday at 1 o'clock and burial was in the DEAY cemetery under the auspices of the lodge. �I_CY~; 1140 DOUGLAS COUNTY TAX PAYERS :'~- 1900-1901 GRANT TmmSHIP ACHNING, Chas, Lawrence ADAMS, J.Q., Lawrence ALFORD, F.G., Lawrence BARRITT, Norman, Lawrence BARLEY, C.

NO. 70., I i The first known school in this community was held in a little two~room frame house, one room above the other, located on the R. T. Richards farm, about one and three-fourths miles north of Kanwaka Corner on U. S. Highway 40. This was not an organized school, and probably main'tained by subscriptions, with the top floor used to house the teacher. When no longer needed for a ;school, this little house was moved to a different location on the farm and used by the Richards as . a dwelling, being enlarged as needs of the growtng family dictated. . The actualorganiz.cition of District No. 70 as shown in the earliest district record, reads as follows: "The legal voters of School District No. 70 of Douglas County, met, pursuant to notice of the County Superintendent on the Sth day of June, 1869, and proceeded to organize by calling , J. A. Kelly to the chair. On motion, R. T. Richards was elected director of said district, J. A. : Kelly was elected clerk, and C. F. Deskins treasurer of said district. Meeting then adjourned." M. S. Winter donated an acre of land on which a stone schoolhouse was built in 1870, and this .!tale (stat~ent by_ Qlas. ~in!f!)'_d~t~ed tJ1e_!1_~J>~ "70" _gi_V~!O .Yt~ .4is~rkt.!- ______, On June 3-, 1871, a special meeting voted to increase the size' of the-sehoolgrounds by buying i . from Mr. Winter an additional three-fourths acre adjoining the acre already donated. This was legalized when on July 11, 1871, Matthias S. Winter and Mary E. Winter, his wife, for the sum of $15.00 gave a warranty deed to District No. 70, for this parcel of land located in the Southeast , corner of theS.W. 1j4 of Sec. 13, T.12, R. 18, same being recorded the next day. The first annual school meeting was held March 30, 1871, resulting in the election of S. M. , Sedgwick, director, M.S. Winter, clerk, and R.T. Richards, treasurer. School was to be held for three months in the summer with a female teacher, and four months in the winter, sex of teacher ,optional with the board. A tax of three-eighths of one percent for the teacher, and one-eighth of one percent for incidentals, was voted. The meeting also instructed the board that in hiring a teacher, the contract should be that the teacher be obliged to stay with the children at recess and ,during intermission at noon. Like many rural schools in early times, no well was put down for years after the schoolhouse was : built, the older boys carrying drinking water from a spring across the road southeast of the school. i Not until 1906 did the district dig a well on the grounds. i The first term of school was held from May to July 21, 1871, with Alice Colman as teacher. I The pupils were Nancy, Arminda and Mary BLANKENSHIP; Laura, Maggie and Elmer IBURCH; Annie DONAHUE; Huldah, Susie, Lizzie and Willie DESKINS; Geo., Mildred and I'Margaret ANDERSON; Mary, Annie and James HAMILTON; Ella HAGAN; Hattie and ,Joseph MONTGOMERY; Mary, Leora, Milton, Thomas and George WINTER; Perry and lJ:larll WQIHHINGTON. .--,-~-- ~-~'_. --... .,...-----:--~-~------- -- �Since the summer term usually-taught onlygirls and small boys, it was customary to hire female teachers. The winter term of four months accommodated the older boys and girls and such younger ones as could battle the bad weather and roads. So for this, a male teacher was usually , selected as being better able to cope with the rigors of the elements as well as the disciplinary :.~ problems which frequently arose among the older boys. The social side of life here was not neglected. The Community Oub held monthly meetings in , the schoolhouse and provided entertainment in the form of dialogue:; and plays, followed by the spelling bee which was inevitably featured. .' For this bee, two captains were selected, and they then proceeded to choose sides, selecting the , best spellers first of course. This continued until all present had been chosen, old and young. As , their names were called they took their places by their respective captains in tw(' lines on opposite , sides of the room facing each other. The person to pronounce the words (usually the teacher) , armed himself with a speller and the serious business of spelling down, began. When a speller " misspelled a word he took his seat, until as the ranks thinned to two contestants, the mounting tension could almost be sliced. Upon the ability of one of these two, rested the championship of the evening. ! Tax-payers in the district in 1874, were Thos. Anderson, John Anderson, Wm. Anderson, Eli ,Barnes, Elias Chris, C.F. Deskins, Wm. Donahue, Daniel Freeman, Henry C. Howlett, ].S. 'Kelly, Wm. McCarty, R.T. Richards, Henry Rodgers, Julia B. Sumner, ].T. Cummings, M.S. Winter, W.H.T. Wakefield and Chas. Worthington. At this time schools were not graded except as pupils were grouped into primary, intermediate and grammar grades. I Teachers' records between the years 1877 and 1887 are missing, but from treasurer's books the ! names of these teachers are revealed: E.M. Emmett, Eliza Emmett, George Draper, S.E. : Winrick, Alice Ingersoll, Dora Patten, Myra Fitz and C.R. Wenrich. '. . : Academic requirements for teaching in rural schools at that time were not high but one of the prime requirements was a teacher's ability to "keep order," and sometimes this factor alone : . determined whether or not a teacher was hired or fired.

GaSton, Anna ~ars, Ella Flinn, Florence Crowder, Maggie Gregory, Julia Hutt, Rose Heise, Olive Wisely, Kate Oark, Mary : I Riddle, C. E. Houdyshell and Alma Nelson. . ; , In 1898 the district board consisted of M. R. Winter, Geo. T. Richards and Fred Deskins. The' : teacher, Mr. E. E. Houdyshell, received a salary of $25.00 per month and total expenditure for; : the school year was $224.21. Names of those of school age in 1898 were: Corbet and Shipman, CARTER; Clarence, Abbie and Jake BROWN; Agnes KELLY; Chester PELSOR; Jack, Kate, i : Maud, Fred and Mert READ; Raimer, Eva, Clark and Sadie RICHARDS; Arthur, Granville,' , Henry and Leeman UNDERWOOD; Mark, Hazel, Bessie, Paul, Georgie and Maud WINTER. i I For the first ten years of the twentieth century, the teachers were Lillie Gwinn, Camilla Nelson, ' , Sylva Kettering, Clara Colman, Alta Phillips, Mildred LaHue, and Emma Dews. Board members , of 1910 were George Banks, Mrs. Lenora Colman and George Carter. Bertha Bailey taught the i 26 pupils. During the term taught t?y Clara Colman, Mr. George Banks took a wagon-load of: school children to Lawrence to the dedication of the water fountain at 9th and New Ha.nlpshire ' I Streets, by President Theodore Roosevelt; the same fountain, now in South Park in Lawrence. ' Teachers of the next decade were Bessie Jackson, Carrie Geelan, Marguerite Ice, Ada Schroyer, Jeanne Winter, Lillian Stover, and Rebecca Miller who taught the term ending in 1920, with 26 pupils enrolled. During this period a number of improvements were made. The , : school-room was replastered, new weighted win~ws installed, a new hitchrack set up, a concrete. ,~~ and platform built in front of the schoolhouse, and a woodshed erected. . - -------.--- - '>.' ' l i " . . I �,l~~6 , ~A~ mandate was giventhe'board to" hire~an -expenenced teacher, which would seem to indicate' that most of the previous teachers may have been inexperienced. If such was the case, it might tie ". .~: ,':,-~". . in with the story in the next paragraph:." In early years of the district a small woman had worked a bluff on the teachers to the point of . once bringing a ball bat with her when visiting the school, in order to emphasize her ideas as to , how the school should be conducted. There came a year finally, when things were to be different, and matters were brought to a head when one of this parent's offspring defied the teaclierand received a shaking therefor. This teacher, however, proved to be experienced and the game of . I bluff was finished. Thereafter baseball bats were used only for the purpose originally intended. Other improvements made during this period were an anteroom built on the front, with shelves installed for dinner buckets, slate blackboards purchased, an eight-foot United States flag bought and chains to replace the old ropes used for the swings. The term ending in 1920 was the first : eight-months' one for this school. Board members were C. J. Banks, R. E. Schroyer and M. Shelly. Teachers of the 1920's were Lenora Schroyer, Christeen Schroyer, Lawrence Journey, Rose Dews (Wymer), and Dorothy Elliott, whose monthly salary was $91.00 for teaching the 15 pupils. Board members were Newt. Hamlin, C. B. Winter and Willis Coleman. Total expenditure' for the term was $1245.66. ' " , ' . : The teachers in the 1930's were Dorothy Elliott, Kathryn McCaHrey; Mrs. Ruth Sa~er, Alice Mitchell, Mary Sanford and Edna Reekie. Board members of 1940 were J. Elmer Shields, . C. B. Winter and Willis R. Coleman. Twelve pupils were enrolled. After 1940, Ruth Bertsinger, Roberta Swearing, Anna Hubbard, Vesta Bahnmaier and Emma Petefish, brought teaching in Winter School to an end in the terin ending in 1946.

When this was done, schoolhouse and grounds were turned over to the Winter Community I Club which some years later distributed the equipment among its members and sold the building! and grounds to Max McClure who owiled the surrounding farm. He, in turn,' finally sold the' property to Jerry Smith, a car dealer in Kansas City who tried to preserve it 'as a: museum and 1 offered its use to Boy Scouts and other like groups. Eventually it fell a victim of vandals and decay and now stands on the prairie a forlorn reminder of better days.

Youth, beauty, wealth, power have naught to charm away his coming. "With his sickle keen He reaps the bearded grain at a breath, and the flowers that grow between." Willie ALBRITON (colored), aged nine years and ten months, died of La Grippe, on the morning of Feb. 16. Willie was a bright and promising little boy, and his death, so unexpected, seems sad and untimely. He was a pupil of the First Primary where he will be greatly missed by his teacher and schoolmates. Nellie HAWLEY, aged fourteen ,years, died Feb. 22, at 12 o'clock. Nellie was a member of the Seventh Grade and was respected and loved by teacher and schoolmates. Sad indeed is it to record this early passing away of so beautiful and so promising a life. It "adds one more to the inexplicable mysteries of Providence that perplex us here." No., we do not, cannot understand His ways, for "Now we see as through a glass darkly;" but there will come a time when it will be made plain to us, and we will rejoice in the love ofa just God who doeth all things well. News Notes Harry PARDEE was absent several days last week, a victim of the toothache.

IN MEMORY OF NELLIE HAWLEY -Edith DIXONDear Nell, you have gone and left us, And we all do miss you so; But we hope sometime you will meet us, Where we all now.hope to go. And won't you be waiting, Nellie, At the beautiful golden gates, To welcome us into glory Who once were your old schoolmates? And we will ever remember Theone with whom we played, When the flowers were in the blossom, And the grass was in the blade. As we study and work at our lessons, We think of you often, Nell, And the days you assembled with us, To learn to figure and spell. You will see no more sorrow and trouble, But ever with angels shall dwell, While we are awaiting the morning When we shall bid the world farewell. News Notes Mrs. JOHNSON (nee LEONARD), of Jop1in,Mo., called this week in company with Miss Ida HUFF. These ladies were both teachers in our schools in 1889-90.

JENKINS' NINETIETH BIRTHDAY Spending her days in peaceful quiet in the town in which she witnessed the great tragedy of her life, is Mrs. Gaius JENKINS, the widow of the man who was shot by James H. LANE, while Lawrence was still scarcely a town, Mrs. JENKINS celebrated her ninetieth birthday last Friday at her home at 1617 Kentucky street, where she lives with a daughter, 'Mrs. M.E. WILDER. Mr. and Mrs. C.L. EDWARDS and Mrs. O.E. LEARNARD were guests at a little dinner given in honor of the event and hostess and guests, all of whom had suffered in the wild early days, had a long talk, concerning the events of the stirring time, though it is now far in the past as a human lifetime goes, but must always be remembered as the most thrilling period of their lives, by those who experienced it. Mrs. JENKINS came to Lawrence with her husband and family in 1855 and Gaius JENKINS homesteaded a quarter section of land, a part of which is now west Lawrence. Later James H. LANE instituted a contest to the title of the land and a feud grew up between him and JENKINS. This went on until June 3, 1858, when LANE shot JENKINS as the latter was trying to get water from a well on the land under dispute. The killing of JENKINS by LANE aroused a great deal of feeling all over the country, and this was particularly the case at Lawrence. The killing was done in cold blood, as JENKINS'only object ori the premises was to get water from the well which LANE claimed as his own. The well stood near what is now the corner of Henry*and Illinois streets. Although the well had been dug by JENKINS, a short time previous to the killing LANE had put a padlock on the gate leading to the well, and had forbidden JENKINS entry to the premises. The JENKINS family had used water from a ravine for a few days, which had caused sickness in the family. The head of the household finally went to the well, where he was killed by LANE. The murderer was never punished for his crime except by the ostracism of many who had been his friends. Mrs. JENKINS has lived in Lawrence nearly all the time since the day when she helped to carry the body of her husband back to the home. It is now fifty-five years since the tragedy occurred, and Mrs. JENKINS, one of the chief sufferers from it, is spending the evening of her days in peace and tranquility.

He was taken there from Willow Springs township, June 26. He was born in New York, and was thirty years of age. Mr. VAUSBAUGH had the secret of some great crime which he wanted to reveal, but he wanted to tell it with his last breath. He sent for the superintendent several times, but kept putting it off until he could,not speak. This secret, if it had been revealed, might have been the means of releasing some poor prisoner of an imputation which he was or is doomed to bear, or which possibly had consigned some innocent person to a premature and dishonored end. , Western Home Journal, Lawrence, Ks., March 2, 1882 'Death'of an Old Settler Last Wednesday night at about 9 o'clock Mr. Gus O'DELL died on his farm near Vinland. He was one of the earliest settlers in Lawrence, having come to Kansas twenty-five years ago and has always been one of our best farmers, respected by all who knew him. He was a member of ,Vinland Grange, and took an active part in its work. At the time of his death he was fifty-five years old. He leaves a wife and five children.

We learn he has lost seven fine grade Cotswold lambs this fall by the curs. F.M. CLARKE had nearly a dozen killed last spring by the dogs. He became disgusted and quit the sheep business, but not until he had slain thirteen dogs. Hon. Levi WOODARD; of Lawrence, has sold his fine farm, one mile north of Hesper, to A.

One of the questions studied involved the length of time the early settlers stayed on the land. This was determined from the figures on the Federal census of 1860 plus subsequent Kansas censuses of 1865, 1875 and 1885. Only those names which appeared on at least two census schedules are included here. The full length study and the complete census figures for this period for Kanwaka Township are available at the Watkins Community Museum. Kans.

Sweets' _ _ _ __ In 1957, Zoe Dentler Thompson Brant wrote a historical novel (based on fact) about her ancestors, the Dodder, Simmons and Thompson families of Marion township, Douglas County, Kansas. The book is called, The Hill or Simmons Point. 1 She explains in the book that the Dodders and Simmons were some of the earliest settlers in Marion township. In fact, Peter Dodder 2 and three friends, George Shobert, James Baker and Samuel Hayes were the first white men to stake their claim at Lapeer in 1855. Lapeer, now extinct, was situated near the headwaters of Rock Creek and was named for a town of the same name in Michigan. Peter Dodder built his shanty on an old road which ran north of the Old Santa Fe Trail. Nearby, in 1856, the Butterfield Stage Coach company was established. Enterprising Peter Dodder recognized the need for an "eating house." So, he and his daughter, Elmira Dodder Simmons began selling coffee and flapjacks from his shanty and were soon doing a profitable business. Before Elmira Dodder arrived in. Kansas to be with her father, she had married Phillip Simmons in Michigan. , :Phillip A. Simmons, age 23, and EI~nira Dodder, age 19; ~ ~ __ ~de and groom, 1_8_59_._ _ __ L_~ '__ Pict,ure.:f'r..Qm.

In 1858, Phillip Simmons filed a claim in Osage County, Kansas, but soonafter sold this claim and went north to Canada and Michigan, where he met his bride-to-be. After the Civil War, the couple settled in a house in Marion township at a place called, The Hill or Simmons Point. This interesting novel spans the period from the territorial years to the 1950's.

MODEL DISTRICT NO. 83 ; When DistrictNo. 83 was being organized it was found that there was not enough valuation I . within its proposed boundaries to yield sufficient taxes to support a school, so J.M. Shepherd, I owner of the N.E. 1/4 of Sec. 22, T. 13, R. 19, adjoining, had part of his land set over into Model I District in order to increase their valuation enough to have a district. ! The deed to the building site was drawn June 3, 1895, by Thomas and Sarah Pugh in favor of ' School District No. 83 for 1 3-20ths of an acre of land. A slight error in the legal description necessitated the drawing of a second deed August 2, to correct this. As corrected the legal description read: "Beginning ata stake 45 rods East of the Southwest comer of the S.E. 1/4 of ' ,Sec. 16, T.13, R. 19, East of the P.M., thence running East 16 rods, thence North 111/2 rods, . thence West 16 rods, thence South 111/2 rods to place of beginning.' . \ On this l'lot a frame sc_h~lh9use _w~th ~a belfry, w~ erected ~ ~ 189~, and the first term of ' school began in the fall of 1896. Noah Pugh, then six years old, started to school in the new: schoolhouse where his first two teachers were John Akers and Ed S~epp. Mr. Pugh distinctly i remembers also the old double desks and seats where the pupils sat and studied without regard as ' . to whether their legs were long enough so that their feet would reach the floor or dangled all day : , in mid-air. The big bell rang every morning at 8: 30 as a warning to those who dawdled, to hustle! a little faster in order to reach the schoolhouse by 9 0' clock. i Model School, now a home for the Albert Lynch family, was located about two and one-half: miles west of U.S. Highway No. 59 on the north side of the black-top road to Ointon, and had a i sizeable pond or lake nearby, that furnished fine skating in winter. Both old and young of the I ,community were very much at home on skates, and many skating parties were arranged for I enjoyment on the smooth surface of this lake whenever the ice was safe. ' , An entertainment common at one time in this and other rural neighborhoods, was the Punch I : and Judy Show, put on by a professional ventriloquist who traveled through the country, making : all the rural schools. Having secured permission from the board to use the schoolhouse, he would : advertise his show by asking permission of the teacher to give the children a free ten-minute show i in the late afternoon of show day. By a few sleight-of-hand tricks and the use of the two dummies, . Punch and Judy, he would so fire the enthusiasm of the youngsters as to be very sure that they: , and their families would appear for the evening show, which was of course, not free. ! The schoolhouse as usual, was the community center, where the literary society met and all the ' dinners, box and pie suppers were held. Whenever anything at all was going on at the <schoolhouse, no one stayed at home. . , The 1897 -98 term was taught by Ed B. Shepp whose monthly salary was $30.00 and enrollment ,35. Total operating expense for the term was $238.25 with board members J. Ulrich, A. E. : I Martin and J. J. Tobler. Names of those of school age in 1898 were: Fred ALLEN; Charles, Jackie, Bessie and Mildred BOWEN; Alva CARR; Jennie and Ella ELUOTT; Clarence, Anna' I and Albert HASTIE; Liberty, Ed and Fred HILL; George LOWN; Jessie and Mattie MAN-: SFIELD; James MARTEN; Mabel PALMATEER; Thomas, Mary, David, Nellie and Noah I PUGH; Addie, Bell, Minnie and William RAMSEY; Golden Loren and Cloyce STARR; Theo.

This is a loose bound volume of 135 pages compiled by Mrs. Elizabeth HAYNES of Santa Rosa, CA. As any useful genealogy should be, the volume is 'indexed. Mrs. HAYNES documents the ancestors of Mr. THOREN and his wife Catharina: BECKMEIR back to the 1600's. Pictures and a description of the Brakelsick, Germany area are included which was the birthplace of the couple. An interesting bit of information Mrs. HAYNES mentions is children took the name of the mother on occasion as in the event a woman became a widow and remarried. The new husband took the name of the farm. The THORENS came to America and settled in Stephanson County, Illinois. Most of the seven children stayed in Illinois or nearby states. Of special interest to those with family in Douglas County, Kansas, .:.is the section on Henrich Christian THOREN and Katharinia Elizabeth ROHRBACH. The couple came to Eudora, Kansas in its very early years. They raised a large family and most of their descendants are listed. A few of the families I in Douglas County are THOREN, NELS, GERSTENBERGER, ALTENBERND, FLEMING, GABRIEL and DURR. In the more recent families many dates of births, deaths and marriages are given.

She kept a 1 ittle scrapbook of cl ippings from the newspaper. Her address at that time was 1340 Vermont St., Lawrence. I tried to photocopy the cl ippings, but they were so yellow nothing showed up. From 1911: Cinderella Play Cinderella was very attractively given Saturday, May 20, by some of the juveniles at 1230 Tennessee Street, the home of Mr. J. R. Stockwell. The play was staged on the sleeping balcony, which was beautifully decorated in roses. The characters in the play were as follows: Cindere11a-~Bessie Allen; The Prince--Mati1e Fincher; Fairy Godmother--Leone Hilkey; Step-mother--Una Stockwell; Haughty Sisters--He1en Curtis, Annette Garrett; Lords at the Ball--Maude Woodard, Virginia Melvin, Winifred Ward. The parts were all played exceedingly well. The Prince and Cinderella, however, being the stars. Cinderella was truly beautiful in the ball scene, being dressed in pink tulle, spangled with gold and silver. In the wedding scene Cinderella wore a long white lace veil. The Prince was truly royal, wearing full uniform. An informal reception was given after the play. From 1912: Picnic Woodland park is becoming more popular. It is an ideal place to hold a picnic, if one does not want to eat their suppers in the good old fashioned way by putting the table cloth on the grass, there are tables of all sizes to be used and plenty of benches on which to sit on. Last evening the Cordfey guild of the Plymouth Congregational church held a del ightfu1 picnic at Woodland park. Miss Jean Russell was the chaperon and those present were Miss Isabel Gilmore, Miss Dorothy Angevine, Miss Winifred Ward Miss Winifred P~ankM' Miss Maud Ell iott, Miss Mary Hodgeson, Miss'Darlene Wooley, ISS aude Woodard, Miss Dorothy Bell, Miss Grace Bell Miss Jean Ell iot, Miss Virginia Melvin, Miss Mildred Gilmore.

M -- ~------- �, 12 Newspaper Clippings qf l1,aude HQQDARJ) cqntinued - An article dated June 1912 tells about the eighth grade pupils graduating into high school: LARGEST CLASS Roll of Eighth Grade Pupils Who Will Enter High School Largest in History. Merwin Promotes 96 The Four Honor Students in the Class Are All Girls--A "Last Day" Program Given This Afternoon. The largest freshman class which has ever entered the high school will be promoted from the grammar grades today. Prof. C. E. Merwin will send a class of ninety-six from Central school to the high school building with the close of the second semester's work this afternoon. This is the largest eighth grade in the history of the Lawrence schools. The race suicide in the University town to which the school enumerator has attributed the persistent decrease in the census enumerations for three or four years, has apparently not affected the numerical strength of the higher classes. It is reducing the number of pupils in the primary grades but the grammar and high school registration continues to grow. In Central building "last day" exercises were held this afternoon. The annual visit was paid the building by members from the G.A.R. post, who made t~e Memorial day addresses and retold the story of the great national struggle of the sixties. In addition to these lectures the pupils themselves gave the following program: Chorus, Welcome. Chorus, Over Hill, Over Dale. Recitation, "Sockery's Cat."--Ruth Ellis. Recitation--Milford Pratt. Composition, "Life in Russia."--Blanche Patterson. Chorus, Trip Along Bright Feet of May. ReCitation, "A Runaway Boy."--Geneva Hunter. ReCitation, "The Roll Call ."--Georgia Richardson. Recitation, "A Leak in the Dike."--Helen Brown. CompOSition, "Corot."--Nellie Reese Evans. Chorus, "I Know a Bank." Recitation, "When the Green Gets Back in the Trees."--Kenneth Clark. Recitation, "When Cyrus Laid the Cable."--Albert Lynch. Recitation, "My Oration."--John Senseman. Compos it i on; "Hawa i i • "--Edna Anderson. Song, "Tenting on the Old Camp Ground."

Recitation, "Valedictory."--Nellie Young. Song, "We RocK Away on the Billows Gay." Among the ninety-six graduates of the grammar grades this year are four honor students. Prof. Merwin/s records show that Maude Ell iott, Nell ie Evans, Blanche Patterson, and Una StocKwell made "ones" in all the heavy studies on their course every· month since promotion to the eighth grade. The scholastic honors are held entirely by the girls in this year/s 1 ist of graduates, not a single boy coming within the prescribed average which designates an honor student. Of the ninety-six who finished the common schools this afternoon practically the entire number will enroll in the high school next year. Not only is the eighth grade class larger than any of its predecessors, but it will send a higher percentage of its membership into the higher institution. The class roll is as follows: The eighth grade promotions to the high s_chool are as follows: Ruth Adair, Bessie Allen, Edna Anderson, Marian Bailey, Mary Seal, Helen Brown, Bertie Browning, Harriett Brush, Frances Bushong, Priscilla ClarK, Helen Curtis, Al ice DicK, Vera Edwards, Maude Ell iott, Ruth Ell is, Nell ie Evans, Annette Fugate, Annette Garrett, Mildred Gilmore, Helen Gott, Marian Gray, Grace Greene, Mamie Griffiths, Edna Helm, Marcella Hetzel, Tressa Hite, Marvel Holloway, Geneva Hunter, Lora Keeler, Anna Lewis, Edna Lindley, El izabeth MacKie, Mary MacPherson, Nell ie McLean, Virginia Melvin, Reita Mull, El izabeth Murphy, Marian Murphy, Blanche Patterson, Opal Pringle, Georgia Richardson, Marguerite Reinisch, Addie Rowland, Alma Schrader, Winona Shearer, Viola Slaughter, Lena Snow, Zella Stewart, Una Stockwell, Hazel Stubbs, Frances Stutesman, Gertrude Transue, Mildred Tuttle, Crystal Wagner, Winifred Ward, Lois WicKs, Helen Winey, Maude Woodard, Hazel Worthington, Nell ie Young, Carl Achning, Leland Benson, Lawrence Brown, Claude Bryant, Robert Cayton, Kenneth ClarK, Charles Coleman, Eric Conger, Roland De Watterville, Ralph Dicker, Frank Dunckley, Paul Fox, Clell Francisco, Arthur Fritzel, Raymond Hill, Jesse Hoover, Abraham Ingels, Irwin Ingram, Robert Learned, Albert Lynch, Earl Martin, ClarK McCulloch, Chas.

TERRY, AGED 96 YEARS AND HER FAMOUS SPINNING mIEEL ,Mrs. Elizabeth COLE TERRY of Lawrence, Kansas, celebrated her 96th birthday Saturday, Nov. 10, 1906. Mrs. TERRY was born Nov. 10, 1810 in Putnam county, New York, where she spent her childhood. In 1831 she was married to John TERRY. They settled in northern Ohio and lived there until five children were grown. Mr. TERRY died in 1859. Mrs. TERRY came to Lawrence in 1869 and since then has made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Cecilia TOWNE. She has been a member of the Baptist Church for eighty years, but of late has been unable to attend services. She is in possession of all her faculties and is a most interesting conversationalist. She becomes quite animated when the subject of spinning is mentioned and it is one of her chief delights to tell of the contests-"in which she participated in the days gone by. She was the I champion spinner in all the country around her old home. She is quite proud of her age and considers any one young who may be eighty o·r thereabouts. Up to the last year or so, she made quite difficult fancy work of various kinds. She is the mother of five children: Mrs. Cecilia TOWNE of Lawrence, John M. TERRY, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, I and I.C. TERRY, Monroe, Louisiana. >Two are not living. She has ten grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren. i, III Ii .

JOHN HARRELL John HARRELL, 91-year-old member of the Washington post of G.A.R., Civil War veteran and Indian fighter, died early today at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Earl HOBBS, in Lawrence. Mr. HARRELL had been seriously ill since August 20. With the death of Mr. HARRELL only two members of the Washington Post are living, and only one resides in Lawrence. They are S.K. FUNK of Lawrence and Henry J. GREEN of Eugene, Ore. Born in Fayetteville, Ark. February 10, 1845, John HARRELL moved with his parents, Catherine and John H. HARRELL to Bloomington, Kansas, and a short time later, when he was 10 years old, they settled on a farm near Clinton. Here he grew to manhood and later bought a farm of his own near .' Clinton. On August 2, 1871, he married Catherine V. ANDERSON at Lawrence and they lived near Clinton until 14 years ago when they came to Lawrence to live with their daughter. John HARRELL enlisted in the Third Kansas Cavalry in July, 1861, but the unit was not called into service and he was dismissed in October of that year. His career as an Indian fighter after the Civil War began when he enlisted in Company A, 18th Regiment of Kansas Cavalry Volunteers on July 8, 1867 at Fort Harker, Kansas .. He saw service in':the west and was wounded in battle. He was discharged November 15, 1867. The Eighteenth Regiment, a hattalion of four companies was mustered into the United States service during July, 1867 to protect the western settlements, to guard employes of the Union Pacific railroad, and the travels on the highways leading to the West and southwest. It was commanded by Major H.L. MOORE of Lawrence. After fighting in the west, Mr. HARRELL returned to Clinton. His wife past away in 1923. He is survived by three daughters, Mrs. Earl HOBBS of Lawrence, Mrs. Martin TARPY, of Clinton and Mrs. J.B. DAILEY of Lawrence; two sons Ray HARRELL of Clinton and Charles HARRELL of Lawrence; one sister Mrs. ~mry WELCH of Sedan; one brother, B.D. HARRELL of Clinton, 11 grandchildren, and 25 great grandchildren. Funeral services will be held from the Clinton Presbyterian church Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock with the Rev. Mr. WARD in charge. Burial will be at the Clinton Cemetery. Spanish American War veterans acting for the G.A.R., will have charge of the military services at the grave.

December 22, 1881 .g~.: _ ... - L~ EUDORA A correspondent of the Topeka Capital gives the following interesting facts about our flourishing little neighbor at the mouth of the Wakarusa: This place is situated at the mouth of the Wakarusa river, seven miles east of Lawrence, on the line of the A.T.& S.F.R.R., in Douglas county. This place was laid out about five years ago by a German company from Chicago, Illinois. It has a special charter as a city, granted by the Territorial Legislature, under which, it has acted ever since. It elects its mayor, council, marshal and other officers annually on the first Monday in March. The city covers 840 acres of land, and has a population of about 800, principally Germans. We have five churches, two school houses, a flourishing mill and elevator; three general stores, besides two or three grocery grocery stores, two drug stores, two hardward and tin shops, three hotels, a lumber yard, two harness shops, an Odd Fellows' building, temperance tabernacle, city hall, three cabinet shops, two boot and shoe shops, two wagon shops, three blacksmith shops, carpenter shops, restaurants, barber shop, three lodges of Odd Fellows and ~~sons, two or three doctors, and about the same number of lawyers. There is considerable improvement being made for this season of the year. Several good dwellings are being built and others repaired. Our brick schoolhouse is nearly completed and ready for use. The old schobl building is too small to accommodate the scholars of the place. We have an excellent school this winter under the management of Prof. J.C. BANTA, as principal, and Miss FARR and Miss RAYSON assistants. The German Episcopal Methodists have built them a very fine church this season at a cost of about $3,000, which is a valuable improvement to the place and speaks well for the congregation, it being small in number. Rev .. Daniel WALTER, their pastor, is entitled to great credit for his untiring efforts and zeal in behalf of his church. They are now holding protracted meetings and are having quite a revival. There is considerable property changing hands, both in the town and surrounding country, at good prices. Every building in the place is occupied and rents are high. Although crops were short, farmers say they realize about as much money for their produce· as they usually do other years. l-Jheat never '. looked better at this season of the year. There was a greater acreage of wheat sown last fall than any previous year in this section of the country. The prohibitory law is pretty generally observed here. There is but one place that the law is openly violated, and there it is said that they sell beer only. Prosecutions have already been instituted; and more will be, to abate the nuisance and punish the offender, and there is but little doubt that the guilty party will have to atone to the offended iaw and close up shop.

This farm was in the northeast part of Grant Township, near the Leavenworth County line. He built his house between two springs. The house was made mostly of native lumber, Walnut Clapboards, Hackberry floors, and a large fireplace in the long kitchen. This house was built by Horace Hancock, an early day carpenter in Lawrence.

I remember the round stone barn that was near our house, it was perfectly round, was bui 1. t for dairy purposes. Some one has said it was an octagon but that is a mistake. The new- owner might have changed it to an octagon ;after: we left it, but not before. We crossed the river on a ferry jjoa-t~- as at that time there was no. bridge across the river. We went through' the timber in North Lawrence, came out· in the clear at the edge of Bismarck Grove. There were some shanties at the edge of the grove, where colored people lived. These shanties were the only signs of habitation that we could see. We angled across the country,a little more north than east. There were no roads to help our progress nor fences to hinder us. We passed through two sloughs and came out on higher ground just south of Mud Creek. This land was still of -. . . " . Indian land. . Some ;,-"---- -...:::; , thIS ground had been stIrred up In places; thIS was where the raIlr6ad:~: had evidently been surveyed. It was to go across the Robirisonfa'-rm-' in a northwest, more west than north, course. The railroad later . changed plans and went through Lawrence. We finally reached the ford across Mud Creek which father had made. We crossed over and were on our ground. ~-. 'I ------ ------ -- - - - - - - - - -~~---- - -------- -- -- - �The house was not qui te ready for us so mother, brother, J. F. and myself went to the J. P. Whitney home to stay a few days. The Whitney home was about one half mile from our house. It did not take us long to get settled!in our: home as much of our worldly goods had burned with our house'~­ A few necessities were added as we needed them. I remember the first coal oi 1 lamp father brought home, it was a real thrill for us. It was a tall slim_ l?mp, a pretty green base tapering up to the bowl which l hele! about on-half pint of oi 1. We sti 11 used some candles----:- Mother made our candles for a long time, but now we could buy them at the grocery store. Our pioneer days were over, .. II In the early 60' s, and before Quantrill's raid, David Miller settled on Mud Creek near the Leavenworth County line, just south of the J.P. Whitney home. Miller evidently bought his land from the Indians. There have been several generations of Millers on this same farm, and their children have attended Oakridge School. Just west and joining the Miller farm is the farm William Stiner bought from the Indians in the early 60' s. William, the youngest son of the Stiners is still living there. The Stiner farm is joined on the west by the southeast part of the Robinson section. In this corner of the Robinson farm is a tenement house. The Eli Mercer family if the first family that I know of living there. They had several children in the school. The Mercer family lived in the district for many years, and on different farms. A number of families have lived in this same corner. For the last few years it has been the home of Will Hayden: and is known as Hayden's corner. South of Hayden's corner, is 40 acres of land which was purchased by Edward W. l'-10rgan in 1867. This land was part of the Jim Lane estate and was sold by Capt. Strong, agent. The south part of this 40 was slough. I remember helping my brothers plant sod corn in that s~ough in 1867. Mr. Morgan did not keep this land very long. i The:· south part was sold to one party. The north part was later sold to Scott Wood. Some of the Wood heirs still live on the place. West of [the] Charlie Wood home is the farm where Joseph E. Garrett settled in the 60' s. The Stiners and Garretts were rel~ted. The Garretts had two boys, the youngest boy, Ed Garrett lives on the place. West of the Garrett farm is the Ed. Pine place. The Pines are old settlers of the community north of Lawrence. I, [To be continued] --Submitted by Judy M.

In 1893, George and Dora MARKLEY sold the district a parcel of land about 1/2 mile west of the original site. The old building was moved to the George MARKLEY farm by horses where it became a part of his house, still with belfry and bell on top. The property is now the William RICE farm where the house stands. Since the district was to have a new schoolhouse in a new location, it was decided to give it a new name also. Columbia was chosen since 1892 was the four hundredth anniversary of the discovery of America by COLUMBUS. The new building was larger than the old one. The belfry was not added until 1913. Myra FITZ was the first teacher in the new building. Others until 1900 were Ella HAMMOND, Mabel GRAHAM, Eva BATES, Arthur BRIDWELL, D.F. SMITH, Artis METSKER. Board members were G.W. MARKLEY, H.B.

His barn had caught fire from some unknown cause, but the alarm was turned in so tardily that the barn was burned down before the engine got there. A high wind was blowing and the barn burned like paper. There was no hay or animals in the barn, only an old buggy,~and the loss was about $275. \ ~~_ _ ---.J �The Lawrence Daily Journal and Daily Kansas Tribune June 8, 1882 EARLY SCHOOLS OF LAWRENCE By C.L. EDWARDS Lawrence was settled in August, 1854. January 16, 1855, 'Edward P. FITCH, who came from Hopkinton, Massachusetts, opened a school in Dr~ ROBINSON's back office, which was up stairs in the Emigrant Aid Building, which stood on the now vacant lot north of the National Bank building. The school term was three and one half months, about 20 scholars in attendance. The teacher's salary was raised by subscription. The following June--about the l6th--Miss Kate KELLOGG, also from Massachusetts, opened a school in the same place. Length of term three months. Miss K.,we are told, was employed and paid by Dr. ROBINSON. She returned East at the close of her term. There was a call for a school meeting for October 11, 1855, but no record can be found of such a meeting having been held or of any school during the winter of 1855. The exciting events of the October election and the "Wakarusa War" in December ,following, gave full occupation and sufficient schooling to all citizens, old and young, for the seacon. In February, 1855, Abram WILDER, with his family, came to Kansas from Bolton, Massachusetts, and settled in Lawrence. In the Spring of 1856 the daughter, Lucy M. WILDER, opened the third term of schools 'in Lawrence in the Emigrant Aid building. This I think was a subscription or tuition school, and was in session on the memorable 21st of May, 1856, when Sheriff JONES and United States Marshal DONALDSON entered the town with their hordes of "Border Ruffians." The destruction of the Hotel and printing presses on that day temporarily scattered the school; but it was reassembled when comparative quiet was restored, and continued during the season, with occasional interruptions, when the teacher exchanged her occupation of moulding minds and teaching the young idea how 'to shoot, and engaged in the more practical occupation of moulding bullets and rolling cartridges for her father, brothers and friends to shoot in defence of their chosen home. During the spring or summer of 1856, Miss Henrietta ROSS, who also came from Massachusetts with her father'sfamiiy in September, 1855, taught a short term of school in the room over'''FAXON's meat market" where the regular Sabbath services of Plymouth, Congregational church were held at th'at time. In the fall of 1856 Rev. E. NUTE and E.B. WHITMAN, Esq., made arrangements with C.L. EDWARDS, a teacher who came from Massachusetts in 1855, to open a school in the basement of the Unitarian church which was then approaching completion, for a period of six months at a salary of $800, Mr. E. to hire his own assistant. The basement rooms were in the hands of the plasterers, PAUL and HARE, and, cold weather coming on and a multitude of other hindrances such a plasterers are heir to, the rooms were not ready for occupancy till 1st of April, 1857. Through the influence of Messrs. WHITMAN, ROTE and others, the desks, tables, settees, books, globes and maps necessary for a complete furnishing of the school had been donated by parties in Boston, which like all the teachers thus far named, and a majority of the scholars in the year 1857, had belonged to the good old Bay State. The school opened March 30, 1857, in the Emigrant Aid building on Massachusetts street. Miss Lucy M. WILDER, having been engaged as assistant on the 1st of April, the new rooms in the church were occupied, and on the 2nd, formally dedicated for school purposes. Then was inaugurated what for two years was known as "Quincy High School," so named for Hon. Josiah QUINCY, of Boston. �Early Schools of Lawrence, con't. The salary was paid in part by funds sent Messrs. ROTE and WHITMAN, in part by Dr. ROBINSON, and finally in full by turning over to the principal a lot of notes given by poor settlers in payment for loans made them from funds sent from Boston. One or two of the notes were paid, but the balance are still held. with the autographs of several of the prominent men of that day attached. It is barely possible that these, the autographs--not the notes, may some day be valuable. Our regular seating capacity was for sixty scholars, but the roll of the first term foots up a total of 77 names. At the end of fourteen weeks the vacation occured and the fall term of ten weeks opened on the 7th of September. Number of scholars this term was 67. During a portion of summer a term of school for younger pupils was held in the vestry room of the church under the charge of Miss DAVENPORT--not from Massachusetts. Later the room was used for the storage of relief goods in charge of E.B. WHITMAN of this school. In the fall of 1857 a meeting of citizens was called .to choose a committee and raise funds for a winter school. The following persons were elected a supertending committee: Dr. S.B. PRENTISS chairman, Dr. Albert NEWMAN secretary, Lyman ALLEN treasurer, E.B. WHITMAN, G.W. HUTCHINSON. John BOWLES was appointed to circulate a paper and a large amount was subscribed. Mr. BOWLES was also collector. The following named persons were engaged as teachers: C.L. EDWARDS principal, and Misses Lucy M. WILDER, Sarah A. BROWN, Mary BOUGHTON, Isabella G. OAKLEY assistants. The term of 14 weeks opened November 30, 1857. The principal was to receive $600 and pay the first assistant; not being responsible for the pay of the other ladies, the amount of their salaries is not on (my) record. It is, however, fresh in mind that the subscription list did not hold out from failure to pay and other causes, and while the assistants were all paid in full, the principal carried a shortage of from one to two hundred dollars ten years, and finally in '67 or '68, through the efforts of Hon. S. KIMBALL, R. MORROW and R. L. FRAZER then in the city council, got his claim allowed without interest. The assistants were assigned as follows: Misses WILDER and BOUGHTON to the High School, Misses BROWN and OAKLEY to Intermediate and Primary. All the departments with a total of 210 pupils were crowded into the basement of the Unitarian church. On the 27th of January, 1858, the first "Free State" Territorial Legislature, then in session at Lawrence, adjourned at an early hour for the purpose of visiting the schools. On the visitors register for that date we find nearly fifty names, including Secretary and Acting Governor WOODSON, Senators NASH and WRIGHT, Speaker DEITZLER and E.N. MORRILL, H. Miles MOORE, C. GRAHAM and others of the House. In the spring of 1858 the city Government was established with James BLOOD as mayor. The schools were organized with Dr. A. NEWMAN and John M. COE, Esq., Trustees, and Dr. A. FULLER, T. Dwight THACHER, Dr. S.C. HARRINGTON, Geo. F. KILLAM as examining committee. The teachers were C.L. EDWARDS, and Mi~s Lucy M. WILDER in the Higher Department; Misses Sarah BROWN and Lizzie HASKELL, Intermediate; and Miss Isabella G. OAKLY in the Primary. The primary school was moved to a building near the Hancock House, which stood near the N.W. corner of Tennessee and Warren streets. The High School contained 60 pupils. The principal's salary was fixed at $1,200, Miss WILDER's at $600 per annum. This disparity will disappear when it is understood that city scrip was issued to the Principal for the total amount, which sold from 40 to 60 cents on the market, while the assistant was paid in· cash 100 cents on the dollar from the avails of the same. �Early Schools of Lawrence, con't. The other teachers were paid direct by the city and probably also received scrip. The spring term opened AprilS, 1858, and continued 13 weeks. The fall term of 12 weeks opened September 6, with the same teachers. The number of pupils in the High School was 63. At the close of this term Miss WILDER resigned the position she had filled with great acceptance for nearly two years, and a few months later was married to B.W. WOODWARD, Esq., of this city. The winter term opened December 13, 1858, with Miss HASKELL and Miss H.M. FELT who had been Miss BROWN's assistants transferred to the High School. There were 74 pupils in the higher department during this term. At the close of this second year of service Mr. EDWARDS, who in the preceding November had been elected County Superintendent of Schools, receiving his commission from Governor MEDARY, February 7,1859, resigned the position of principal of the High School, and C.W. ADAMS, who during the winter had opened a private school in Woodward's building on Massachusetts street, was appointed to the vacancy, and the High school during the Spring and Fall was removed to the Woodward building. The old room in the basement had been hired by Mr. EDWARDS who designed opening a private school in the Fall of 1859. Some time in 1858, through the active exertions of Dr. MINER and Rev. WIn. BISHOP, a Board of Trustees had been organized and operations commenced for a University. The majority of the trustees were Presbyterians. The board included Gov. ROBINSON, Rev. Charles REYNOLDS, T.Dwight THACHER, :H.M. SIMPSON, C.L .. , EDWARDS and one or two others from the vicinity who were not of that denomination. In 1859 work had been commenced upon a building on Mount Oread and the foundation put in of what is now called the old University. During the Summer of 1859, it was decided to open a Primary Department of Lawrence University, which was done in September of that year in connection with Mr. EDWARDS' private school, Rev. William BISHOP and Rev. Charles REYNOLDS coming in daily and conducting the departments of languages and elocution respectively. There were 43 pupils in attendance. Mr.' EDWARDS received the tuition fees, while the other gentlemen got away with 'the glory; at the close of this term, the glory having faded the tuitions failing, or for other,causes known only to the Presbyterian Board, the school was suspended. Mr. EDWARDS gave up his private school and the City High School under Mr. ADAMS moved back to its old quarters. The letter of Rev. BISHOP will shed further light upon this first University term, and Mr. WOODWARD's remarks to follow will cover the history from this point to the Quantri1 Raid.

Social Reunion 1 That the roll ~ay be made complete, please send names to C.L. EDWARDS. I 1 On response to that call over three hundred of the old scholars answered or had their n~mes answered to. They met in the old original school-room in the basement of the Unitarian church. The original old teacher's desk was there, the old:bell which called the children to order, and which had before done service in the old Free State Hotel was there. The original superintendent was there and ~resided. Five of the old teachers were there; a majority of the first board of leducation were there. The old ~chool room, as one entered, looked like a miniature paradise, which it is di£ficult to describe. On either side of the teacher's desk were doors leading ~o the rear. Over the one to the right, in evergreen, was 1857-that was when the school began, where the scholars entered, directly back of the teacher, w~s l863--when the school ended. Over the door to the left, 1882-where we now go out, representing the present. Under the date back of the teacher were the photographs of S.M. THORP, Reesen SUTHERLAND, Miss Lucy WILDER, , I Lieut. Low. WADKER, son of Col. Sam. WALKER, Charlie COLEMAN, son of E.A. COLEMAN, Mary ANDERSON, Emma ELDRIDGE and Emma JENKINS, all of whom are deI ceased. There ~as also a picture of the first building erected in Lawrence, two floral wreaths, a cross and anchor and other floral decorations. The' teacher's desk was ornamented by several boquets and a table in front contained fifty or more most elegant floral designs. Beside this the walls were hung I ' with pictures and even the ponderous wooden pillars were twined with evergreens and flowers. At a few ~inutes after two W.H. LAMON was directed by the teacher to ring the bell and can the children in. Then the old call bell was tapped and the children came t~ order. Mr. C.L. EDWARDS said the school would open with singing, and the boys and girls of twenty .... five years ago united in singing "God Speed the Right i " The teach+r then offered a fervent prayer, invoking the blessing of Heaven upon those present and those absent. I Mr. EDWARBS then said the first school was opened in Lawrence March 30, 1857, in the Emigrant Aid Building. Following the old plan we shall call the roll first, land require an excuse from all absent without leave. The first school in!Lawrence was taught by Mr. FITCH, and opened in January, 1855. Among his scholars was Alvira COREL, now Mrs. J.J. McGEE, Josie and Dora JOHNSON. Of Mi~s Kate KELLOGG's pupils, the following are the names: D.C. HASKELL, G.P. W]LDER, Maggie DUNCAN, Josie JOHNSON.

Mary JENKI~S (WILDER)--In response to this name Mrs. O.E. LEARNARD read the following letter: 1315 Webster St., Oakland, May 19. My Dear Mary: Your letter with ,announcement of quarter-centennial reached me night before last, but\I have had no opportunity to consider the matter of reply until this moment. Circumstances beyond my control render it impossible for me to be present; But rest assured, my dear, I shall be with you in heart 1 1 I 1 I I I ' �70 Quincy High School Reunion continued when the roll is called from the old book in the old familiar tone of. voice. I shall be prepared to note with you the changes which time has wrought in the lines of members present and absent also to recall the memory of the faces of those long since gone to the.. ';bettei:: land." The 'years have gone 'so quickly that I suspect you will fancy you can almost hear the echo of those voices somewhere about' the old house.: Onlij"a few more days and we shall meet there again, waiting on the other side, perhaps to guide our feet in the new and strange paths. Death has called away very few of the old original members, I suppose, and yet I imagine the class will not be very well represented at your reunion. A part of the old class in arithmetic are still there, however. Please ask James FAXON if he wishes to propound another mathematical problem to them. He was in a most unamiable state of mind towards GREENLEAF's National when he gave this one, which you perhaps remember. "How many cubic feet are there'- in a big pile of brush?" I sympathized with him in his mood and so remembered the problem. Remember the doctor and myself to those present and tell them how pleased we should be to be with you on that occasion. Remember me to all friends. Yours affectionately, MARY. Emma JENKINS' name was responded to by Mrs. Dr. PRENTISS. Josie ELDRIDGE (ELLIS)--In response to this name Mrs. WHITMAN delivered the following eulogy: JOSIE P. ELDRIDGE. Those of us who were pupils here during the years of '57 and '58, will not have forgotten the lovely face of her in memory of whom I have been _ called to write these few lines. No words of mine can do justice to that dear friend of those old times. Her sweet ways, her loving disposition must be remembered by all her old schoolmates. Josie P. ELDRIDGE was born Jan. 25, 1846. Sept. 5, 1871, she married Rev. F.M. ELLIS, and died in Kansas City, Oct. 5th, 1872. This is the record of one whose life was full of gentleness and goodness, and for whom the beautiful verses of our loved poet, WHITTIER, seem to have been especially written. Another hand is beckoning us, Another call is given: And glows once more with angel-steps The path which reaches Heaven. And half we deemed she needed not The changing of her sphere, To give to Heaven a shining one, Who walked an angel here. The light of her young life went down, As sinks behind the hill The glory of a setting star Clear, suddenly, and still. The blessings of her quiet life Fell on us like the dew: And good thoughts, where her .. ... _.. "'footsteps pressed Like fairy blossoms grew. As pure and sweet, her fair brow seemed Eternal as the sky; And like the brook's low song, her voice, A sound which could not die. Sweet promptings unto kindest deeds Were in her very look; We read her face, as one who reads A true and holy book. Lucy HOYT, absent. Margaret JONES, reported as deceased by Henry ROSS. �Quincy High School Reunion continued Mary L. CLOUGH (WANLASS)--responded to by Mrs. W.O. HUBBELL, who read a letter of regret. Mary J.

EDWARDS: Dear old teacher of my childhood, in response to the notice of reuni.on I send these lines from my Nebraska home. I wish that I could be with you in person but this being impossible I will try my best to imagine myself there. I hope that I may add something of interest to this little gathering of old and well remembered schoolmates. In a few days it will be seven years since I had the pleasure of looking on beautiful Lawrence, and except- four times have not looked on a face I have ever seen before, outside of our own little family. I assure you these little flying visits of friends of other days and other scenes were appreciated, and none can tell how much until isolated from home and friends. Lawrence has always been home to me and always will be. Where ones childhood is spent and loved ones live and lie buried, there the hearts home affections center and "homeis where the heart is." This gathering will be one of joy and sadness to many, for there will be names called who gathered with us around you and our dear teacher, Miss WILDER, to receive instruction and consolation in our many struggles and trials in our studies, who are now remembered with the silent dead. Others like myself have sought homes in distant states, who, I hope, will respond as I have done to tell of their wanderings. My recollections of you""are those of pleasure, as �72 Quincy High School Reunion continued we always found you ever ready to assist, always patient, kind and courteous. And on my part I have many regrets, as I can now remember the precious hours I let slip by never to return, regrets that I did not improve those golden opportunities now lost . . And, in conclusion, let me say how much I should love.to be with you to answer to my name when it is called. I hope to see a minute account of the meeting in the Lawrence Journal, which paper is gladly received in our home. I am glad to know, though absent, I am not forgotten. with many loving remembrances for each and all, I remain as ever, a true friend. Helen PATTERSON CONE. Lizzie FREEMAN, Mr. John ROSS answered to her name and said that though she was not here herself, her picture was. Susie FAXON was answered for by Mr. Frank FAXON. Maggie DUNCAN (GREGG) was reported by C.L. EDWARDS. Bathilda SNYDER was reported by M1ss BROWN, who read the following letter: Denver, Col., May 28. Dear Mr. EDWARDS: I received the invitation so kindly sent by you, to be present at the reunion of your old scholars and teachers on the 1st of June. How I should enjoy meeting all the dear, familiar faces assembled together in our old school-room. It would seem like being a child once more, and certainly after roll call my hand would instinctively seek the books, slate and pencil of my school girl days ,.' but instead of this I am away out here on the farthest limits of the plains of Colorado, and find it utterly impossible to be one of your number. I was in Lawrence last fall, saw many of myoId schoolmates, but none of my teachers. I shall remember the. hour· of roll call and hope some kind schoolmate ," will answer for me, and tell them I am thinking of them at that moment and deeply regret not being able to be with them. I sincerely hope the majority of our number will be "present," although many dear friends are gone forever, and many like myself will be absent in person, but with you in spirit. Your old scholar, Bathilda SNYDER METCALF. DOra JOHNSONi(tJELSH) -present. Emma ELDRIDGE (RIGGS), deceased-responded to by John ROSS. Jimmy ELDRIDGE-killed in QUANTRIL raid, answered for by John ROSS. Abe WILDER, absent. James FAXON was present and felt it good to be here. David SUTHERLAND, absent. Charles HOYT was unavoidably absent. Edward MORGAN, responded for by James FAXON. Charlie COLEMAN, killed in battle-eulogy by James FAXON. Eddie HUTCHINSON-died of quick consumption two years ago. W.H. LAMON said of him: "And what shall I say of Edwin. I remember him as the brightest and shrewdest of boys; always at the head of his class; he was a young giant in mental arithmetic, standing head and shoulders above the entire school in that branch of study. He excelled in penmanship and at composition he was good. He died in Humbolt, Kan., of that fell destroyer consumption, at the age of ~5, leaving a wife and one child." �73 Quincy High School Reunion continued Rezin SUTHERLAND,-eulogy pronounced by Mrs. MARSH. Henry ROSS responded present and called on James FAXON to make his speech. Arthur FULLER was answered for by John ROSS Geo. P. WILDER was answered for by James FAXON, who read the following letter: Chanute, Kan., May 31st, 1882. Teachers, Schoolmates and Friends, Lawrence, Kansas. I am very sorry that circumstances are such that I cannot be with you tomorrow, however I can go back a good many years as to the history of the Lawrence Schools. The first school I attended was taught by Miss KELLOGG, the room being in what was known as the old Emigrant Aid building a two story frame situated north of the present National Bank, the lower room was used for a carpenter shop and hardware story. Dudley C. HASKELL and myself were the largest scholars and when it was necessary for any whipping to be done either Mr. HASKELL or myself were sent out after the carpenter to perform the laborious task who by the way happened to be Mr. Geo. HUNT, father of one of your prosperous merchants. The next year the Unitarian church was erected when the wise men of Lawrence rented the lower rooms and school opened with a full corps of teachers. Two of the number are now with you while the third now rests with many more dear friends in your beautiful cemetery. The next thing of importance, as far as the writer was concerned, was the day he had to speak his first piece and failed when Mr. EDWARDS sent me to my seat, with the consoling words you can have two next week. will say I had plenty of company. My second trouble, with several others was to offer an apology to Miss FELTS (now Mrs. H.S. CLARKE) for misbehavior in our classes. The third and last difficulty when 25 of us were sent home from school one Friday afternoon for whispering with instructions not to return until we were willing to ask pardon of our teacher, Mr. EDWARDS, and will say that quite a number did not return. Trusting this will be a pleasant meeting and that a permanent organization will be effected, I remain Truly· yours. G.P. WILDER John M. SPEER-Robert SPEER and David PURINGTON-eulogy read by Mrs. W.O. HUBBELL. John M. SPEER, at the age of eleven years, and Robert at the age of nine, came to Kansas with their parents, May 18, 1855, from Medina, Ohio. Soon after their arrival they entered the first school taught in Lawrence. They next attended the Quincy High school, where they received much of their early training, which better prepared them for the positions of honor and trust they afterwards held, and a bright prospect of future usefulness lay before them. Robert at the age of twelve, was page in the first Free State Territorial Legislature, of '57 and '8, and John was page in the first Kansas State Legislature under the Topeka constitution, and witnessed the dispersion of that Legislature at the point of the bayonet, by Col. SUMNER, by the direction of Jefferson DAVIS as secretary of war. Though but 12 years old he was among the last to leave, and was wont to tell his school mates with great glee of how some 1adJes punched members in the back with their parasols to make them vote as Col. SUMNER was marching upon the Hall of the House. �Quincy High School Reunion continued He was a writer of some ability. Both were employed in THE TRIBUNE office at the time of their death, .which occurred in that terrible massacre by QUANTRIL, August 21,1863, which we all so well remember, when death. and destruction Laid waste so many homes, and so.many hearts were made to mourn the loss of loved ones. The body of Robert was never found. He was supposed to have been murdered and burned in the Republican office where Liberty Hall now stands with David PURINTON, where the two boys were supposed to have slept the night preceding. Thus abruptly terminated the lives of three bright and promising young men, whom memory loves to cherish; and could they have been spared to finish their work so nobly begun, their names might have stood high on the roll of honor. But to-day their seats are vacant. They have answered to the last roll call. Han. D.C. HASKELL responded in the following letter: House of Representatives, Washington, D.C., May 24, '82 C.L. EDWARDS, Lawrence, Kan. My Dear Teacher:--When you call the roll on the 1st of June, after our long vacation, I shall fail to answer to my name, much, very much to my regret, and so under the rule I send this note as my excuse. Neither father nor mother can write it for me, for the Great Master has called them to Him in the great school where is taught the mysteries of the infinite, and I am alone now, with only my thoughts for company. My excuse--I had dropped my pen that I might think, and for the moment forgotten my present duty. First dear teacher, I have lost my books--every one of them. I laid them down, I don't remember where, and they are gone, hopelessly gone, I know not where, nor how. I have not hunted for them much--I don't know where to look for them, and some how I cannot but feel that if I did look, I should not find them. My dinner pail too has disappeared, and·there is no one here to put up my lunch. Besides, my dear teacher (you must not laugh "at me) I have watched all. the morning for Emma and Nellie ENOS to come across the prairie, (you know we always go to school together) I have not seen them yet, and now it is too late. I am afraid for once that they have gone some other way. I simply cannot go to school to-day. Please excuse me, and I will send with this a composition I have written concerning some things that happened last term, and some that I remember during the vacation. I sat if you remember with Lee ANDERSON, (the boy who lived with Mrs. HICKS over on the west side of town), and our seat was in the northeast corner of the school room, in the back row. Lee was a good boy, and advanced more rapidly in his studies than any boy I ever knew. He could barely read when he first came to our school, and when his second term closed Lee had mastered, aye mastered GREENLEAF's arighmetic, and was correspondingly well along in his other studies. Poor boy! he started for Pike's Peak by the Arkansas river route, sickened by the way, and died at Pawnee Fork. I read his name the same year on the bit of board they had placed his grave, while I too, was on my way, across the then great unknown plains to the land of gold. A few seats in front of us and in the next row of seats to the left of us, was the liveliest, most frolicsome, irrepressible bright, good natured little fellow who ever plagued a teacher, or learned the most difficult at �75 Quincy High School continued lesson in a minute, and if you can see him to-day in the sober, staid, and upright merchant of Lawrence, Wm. LEIS, Esq., your eyes are brighter than mine surely. I can see the boy this minute, and I love my friend the merchant, but I must call in a scientist to trace the connection between the two--I cannot. Another of our boys a little younger than myself, has never quite broken the chain of resemblance. Geo. WILDER the public spirited merchant of. Chanute is our old Georgie WILDER "grown up" to be a leading citizen of Neosho county. John ROSS, Abe. WILDER, Henry ROSS, Will. LAMON, Jas. FAXON and a dozen more of our older boys will be with you, and answer to their names, get all the good seats, and tell of a thousand things, that to write, would take all my time this summer. John ROSS was a good boy, none better, and in his riper years has filled the promise of his youth in a splendid manhood, but there were times, John, when you tried our patience, and taxed our friendship sorely, but we could never refuse so good a mate our forgiveness after the smart was over.·--Teacher, you remember that John had good taste in two directions? He knew a good horse when he saw one, and he knew also the prettiest girls, (all our girls were pretty) and John had a good horse and buggy. I never knew a pretty girl who did not love a buggy ride. Oh well teacher, it is all right now, I can't blame the girls, and of course John had a right to, but you see us barefooted boys had no show, not the least in the world. One can't forget every thing-still I don't see how we could blame the girls. What rare old games of ball we had. How could a set of boys have had a better time? And it is twenty-five years ago! A dozen happy beautiful homes built since on the old ball ground, and not a trace of it is left. Do you remember, teacher, how out on that ball gound, Abe. WILDER, Charley COLEMAN and I started an Indian Industrial Training School?-twenty-five years ago? CARLisLE and HAMPTON were not thought of then. We were the pioneers in that grand work of civilizing the red man--tried to get a Kaw Indian to cut wood for the school house stove in payment for his dinner. The school failed--never had but the one pupil, and he did not gradua te . Dear old Charley COLEMAN, just as good and true, as ever boy was made. The war came, Charley heard the call of his country and went, but he never came home, he sleeps where "Honor guards with solemn sound The bi vouac of the dead." No sooner do I commence to jot down these recollections of boyhood days and the old school than I am reminded of the impossibility, for mere lack of time, of preserving these sheets, one in a thousand of the pleasant memories that come thronging to my mind, and begging so strongly for a place. It is possible that we had the usual boyish quarrels, exchanged the usual hard words, and the blows that were so soon repented of, but if so,I have forgotten them. I can recall to mind not a single instance of the kind. The past comes back to me in only pleasing recollections that bear with them nothing that I would fain expunge from the mental record. My early school experiences were somewhat peculiar in the way of changes. I remember distinctly to have attended district school in nine on �76 Quincy High School Reunion continued different places. If experience ever·. :taught me anything, or rather if I profited much under the same old teacher, I think when I entered the seminary at East Hampton to prepare for college, I must have been a juvenile expert on the subject of district school. Be that as it may, I regard our old school at Lawrence as by far the best one I ever knew or read of. The discipline, dear teacher, that you maintained was marvelous. In what other school was ever permission given to any pupil and every pupil to rise and cross the school room at will, on any errand connected with the daily tasks, conditioned only that there should be no noise and no abuse of the privelige. In what other school was then enlisted every one of the older pupils as self-elected monitors to enforce the rules? I know of none. Our school was pre-eminent for its good order, and so thoroughly was every pupil imbued with the idea of preserving it, that older ones acted as the assistant teacher in cases of her absence frequently, and heard the recitations of the lower classes, with the gravity an decorum of owls, not surpassing in this regard however the members of the class who recited. The influences of that school will never cease to act, never. They will go on, and on, and on, generation after generation. Think of that! When the next quarter centennial comes there may not be one of the old band left. At best only a few, a very few, old and white haired, will be left to recall the dear old days, but the influences of that school will never die. The pearls of good counsel that were. dropped one by one by you, dear teacher, in the pellucid pool of that old school room, sent the ever widening circles out and on, out and on, unbrokenly--at last they will . break, but in little waves on the far off silent shores of the Infinite. Join wi th me friends, schoolma tes.· in .this sentiment to our teacher Here's a smile for those that love thee Here's a sigh for those who hate; And whatever sky's above thee, Here's a heart for any fate. But who shall make answer to that sentiment, that I know will be presented--of course it will be presented,--Our Girls-"We had been brutes without you." I am not equal to the occasion. There will fall to some favored one, the pleasing duty, to tell how well they bore their part, ho~ they brightened ·by their presence the old school room, what a potent incentive they furnished "us boys" to make at least high endeavors to gain an honorable place and name for ourselves when we should come upon the stage of action. After twenty five years, we will all bear witness as to each and every one of our girl schoolmates, that we could do them no greater honor, provide for them no more fitting testimonial, than to execute faithfully in their behalf the last injunction given in the last chapter of the Book of Proverbs. "Give her of the fruits of her hands and let her own works praise her in the gates." I fear friends that'I have wearied you, and I will close, there will never be a celebration that I shall so much regret my inability to attend as this one.' I shall doubtless meet many of you again, and the meeting with each of you will be most pleasurable as it has always been, but I shall never meet together, as you are to-day, and it is with sincere sorrow that I can �77 Quincy High School Reunion continued be with you only in spirit. This however wiLL be some cOIlsolation, widen your circle and let me in, let me feel again the clasp of your hands for a moment, and then breathing a wish that you may have to-day a most joyous reunion, and for the future that you may have a full, free and unfettered prosperity I sink into the silent signature of Your friend D.C. HASKELL. Hoffman COLAMORE, responded to by John ROSS. Geo. H. JENKINS, was unable to be present but his regrets were sent. Charles F. MINER,--died of yellow fever in Memphis, answered for' by Will BULLENE. Cosma G. COLEMAN, answered for by James FAXON. Will DUNCAN, answered "Here." C.T.K. PRENTICE said Will narrowly escaped being absent by going over the dam after a duck. Dr. PRENTISS was of the opinion that Will got a "duck." Eddie DOW, deceased--reported by Henry ROSS. James Lowe WALKER, was answered for by Charles SMITH with the following statement: James Lowe WALKER, son of Col. Samuel WALKER and. wife, was born in Lowden, Franklin county, Pa., in June 21st, 1846. He moved to Kansas in 1855 with his father and family. He attended the school taught by Mr. Edward in 1857--also the schools taught by C.W. ADAMS and Miss BARBER in the year 1859 and 1860. In 1863 he enlisted as a private soldier in Company I, 5th Kansas cavalry, served in that regiment till promoted to the position of 1st Lieutenant of Company D., 16th Kansas. In 1865 was ordered to Colorado. Was killed at Julesburg in the fall of 1865. His body lies buried in Oak Hill Cemetery near Lawrence Kansas. He died a brave soldier and a worthy man. Geo. HUNT--iIi the city, but not able to be present. Charles and Barney PALMER, eulogized by John ROSS. Walter PARKER answered for by Henry ROSS, is now submaster of the Philips Grammar School in Boston. Nellie ENOS MARSH remarked that Walter PARKER said that Mary BROWN and Nellie ENOS were the two worst girls in school. Principal EDWARDS said in response,--He never knew Walter PARKER to tell a lie. Samuel DODSWORTH and Thomas SEATON were answered for by the teacher. John ROSS was glad to be present and respond to the old roll call. Lyman PRENTIS--Mrs. Wm. SIMPSON presented a written excuse for him, but the teacher doubted its genuineness, especially as it was not signed. John ROSS, however, came to the rescue of Lyman, and put in a good word for him, telling an amusing story about him. FAXON 2d--Frank FAXON answered for himself and said he was one of the smallest boys of the school. This created amusement, as he has now grown to be a very large man. The teacher then called on Wm. LAMON to read a composition which he had written twenty-five years ago, and which he had not been allowed to see since. It was entitled, "My Native Town" and was a very funny document. This rhetorical exercise, the teacher said closed the first term of school,the total number of names called being 77. ' To be continued in the next issue.

ALLEN LEEPER The subjects of this sketch were early settlers of Lawrence; they came to Kansas in 1859 and in point of actual years of residence are among the oldest in the historic city. They passed through the memorable massacre of Quantrell's men, Mr. LEEPER being miraculously preserved from being burned to death by the heroic efforts and bravery of his wife. Allen LEEPER was born in Ohio, August 24, 1826. When six years of age his parents moved to Bloomington, Ill., where Allen was educated. He married Vienna VEATCH, September 26, 1847, remaining in Bloomington until 1859, when they removed to Kansas. Mr. LEEPER was not only a pioneer of Lawrence, but also one of· the progressive and enterprising business men, being a contractor and builder for years, witnessing many changes in the building of the city, being always personally interested in its development. He served with the State militia in the Price raid and is a member of the I.O.O.F. In religion, Mr. and Mrs. LEEPER are identified with the First Baptist church of Lawrence. Vienna LEEPER was born in Indiana, January 22, 1832, daughter of Elijah VEACH, a Baptist minister for over sixty years and one of the pioneer ministers in Illinois, going to Bloomington in 1835 when it was a very small village. The VEATCH family are Scotch descent and trace their lineage to 1750, serving in the Revolutionary war and the war of 1812. Mr. and Mrs. Allen LEEPER were the parents of three children, the oldest, a daughter, dying in infancy, and Allen Whitney died when seven years of age soon after coming to Kansas. The remaining son, Charles Gilbert, was raised and educated in Lawrence. Married Miss Sadie V. DANNER of Louisville, Kentucky, in 1878. He was a resident of Topeka a number of years and died in 1891, leaving a wife and one son, Dorle. This son.of Mrs. S.V. LEEPER and only grandchild of Mr. and Mrs. Allen LEEPER, died last April in Topeka. In the declining years of this old couple the sweet of life has cast a mellowed light, the sweetness of life has come out and they are sitting today in the contentment, waiting for whatever change there is in store for them. Th~ir life has been a beautiful one, blended for sixty years, and is intertwined so that it is really but one life and with one hope. �~~ I~_~: ~6T'~-.: . JO«H1- '_ _ _ _ _ _ _ i 1 Lawrence Daily Journal, Feb. 21, 1907 CREEL KILLED Well Known Farmer Loses His Life in a Runaway Accident Near No. 6 School House. STEVE WILSON ALSO HURT Horses Scared by Team Coming Up Behind. CREEL DIED THIS MORNING Ira CREEL was killed by a runaway accident last night near No. 6 school house.''. Steve WILSON who was with him was also badly hurt, but will recover. The accident happened about 5:30 last night. The two men were taken to the home of S.M. REYNOLDS where they were given every attention. Medical aid was summoned from town and Mr. CREEL lived through the night. He died at 6:45 this morning. Mr. CREEL suffered severely during the night~ He was terribly bruised and mangled. Mr. WILSON was painfully h,urt but not seriously. Mr. CREEL was one of the best known farmers in this county. He was a good citizen, a man universally popular and his tragic death has caused widespread regret. Mr. WILSON was formerly a rural route carrier and is also well known. Mr. CREEL and Mr. WILSON were driving home from Lawrence and when near No. 6 school house a team unexpectedly came up behind them. The rat~. tling of the wagon frightened the CREEL team which was feeling on its mettle anyway and it at once became unmanageable. The two men had little chance for their lives against the thoroughly frightened team. It is not known exactly how they were thrown out, but it seems that in turning a corner, the wagon in which they were riding lunged to one side, throwing them out so hard that it inflicted the injuries that caused the death of Mr. CREEL. This terrible accident has shocked the friends of Mr. CREEL. He had lived practically all his life around Lone Star and his neighbors could hardly credit his untimely death. Mr. CREEL was a man about 43 years of age and leaves seven children, the youngest only a week old. He lived on the W.R. WILLIAMS farm. Friends who have investigated say that Mr. CREEL attempted to pull the horses into a hedge to stop them, but instead they turned in the opposite direction and threw the occupants out. Mr. CREEL hit a stone which inflicted the injury that caused his death. FUNERAL OF MR. CREEL The funeral serV1ces of Ira CREEL will be held Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the home near Pleasant Grove. Burial will be in Pleasant Grove Cemetery. *No. 6 school house is still standing at the corner of Iowa and 23rd Streets.

Gov. ROBINSON sold the south west 40 of his farm to a Mr. GILLETT. The GILLETT's were the parents of Mrs. C.W. BABCOCK. BABCOCK was a well known Lawrence citizen. I saw an article in the paper not many months ago which said Carrie BABCOCK was post master. I think it should have read Carmie BABCOCK. 7h~ GILLETT's lived on their farm for a few years. The place has changed owners a number of times, and of late years has been known as "Herds' Cornei." Near the northeast corner of the Robinson farm, but south of 'Mud Creek is a tenement house. This is where the Robinsons lived while their house on the hill, was being builtin the summer of 64. Mrs. ROBINSON spent part of the time in Massachusetts. The first family that I knew of living there after the - ROBINSON's into their new home was the COVEY family. . - - -'" moved They were a large family and five of the children attended the subscription school, Ki, Bill, Rena, Tom and Lincoln COVEY--Clay PURCELL, Gilbert, Jona Jr. and Anna MORGAN. There were about three colored FITCHUE chi ldren. I have forgotten their given names. Twelve pupils in all. The FITCHUE family I believe, south of- ----------------_._-------------the MILLER farm. - lived, -------- --_ ..... ~- . . - - , '- .. -----.--.------~ ~------- ..... , The COVEY's lived on the ROBINSON farm a few years, moved on '-to a place north of here. After a few years they moved to 'town, and for many years were well known citizens of North Lawrence. They were succeeded on the ROBINSON place by the Wiiliam CAMPBELL family. There were three grown daughters in the family, fine women and they all three passed away in just a few years, and the oldest son, Eli, wasn't long in following his sisters. There were five younger ones and four of them attended Oakridge in the early 70's. They lived on the place a few years. Many other families have come and gtine on that place but for some years Lawrence LEONHARD has lived,there. ' North of the 'R-OBINSON. farm and across the road is the James GILMORE farm-.~-Jain-e-s GILMORE married Julia HARMON, a welT known' teacher in the Oakridge school They settled on tB~irfarm in the middle or late 70's. They had three children. The heirs are still interested in the home place. ,Joilring the James GILMORE farm on the north is where Ed and Will YOUNG settled in the late 60's. They kept bachelors hall for a time. Ed YOUNG married and his wife, Lib YOUNG (as she was usually called) was a real help to the neighborhood.

The building in which the August HILDENBRAND general mercantile store was housed was known as the Leamer. store building, and was built during the War of the Rebellion by William LEAMER, a well known settler in the early days. The building was frame, and had been built, originally, of native lumber. It was never torn down and rebuilt; but through the years that have passed, constant repairs were made. In the old building William LEAMER ran his little country store for more than forty years. The Lee Hardward store which also suffered a heavy loss, occupied a second building which dates back to war times. Although the building was not injured by the flames, the stock, which had been carried out into the street by frantic workers, was damaged to the extent of about $1,000. Just back of the Iliff Mercantile company's double store, and only a few yards from the very center of the fire, is the United Brethren church, unhurt by the flames. The church stands on the site of the old territorial capital of Kansas-the scene of much excitement in the days of border warfare. The foundations of the old capital are still standing around the church as is a portion of the· foundation of Lane University, the United Brethren school, which stood on the site for years before it was torn down to make room for the church which stands there today. But it is to the old Rowena Hotel-the building used for a dormitory in the days of Lane University-that we turn for the object of greatest interest. Into this old building, the monument of the town and the reminder of old territorial times, the entire business district of Lecompton has been moved. Before the fire, the old hotel had stood empty for many years~save for the little office in an upstairs room of the Lecompton Sun. But when disaster clutched the village in its grip, practically every business building in the town was wiped out of existence. Into this old hotel then, the foodstuffs of the community were taken by the fire fighters; and Lecompton's population turns today for its meals to the stores temporarily established in the hotel. Before daylight on the night of the fire, R. Lemuel ILIFF rented the hotel for a temporary location for the Iliff Mercantile company. Later he sublet a room in the building to HILDENBRAND, his competitor. Another room was leased to Dr. C.C. KERR for his office, and a third to Mrs. Lula TODHUNTER, the postmistress.

Elniff �I-~~­ , 94 ,~' FIRST FLOUR MILL In Kansas Was Built by J.W. WILLEY Who Now Lives Near Here Out in the Blue Mound Picturesque District Mill Built in l857--Material for Building Brought From Indiana in Many Ways. The Sunday Topeka Capital contained an interesting account of the first flour mill in Kansas, said to have been started by J.W. WILLEY. Mr. WILLEY now lives here near Blue Mound. The story said in part: So far as is known, the first bolted flour made in Kansas was that manufactured in a mill at Blue Mound, seven miles southeast of Lawrence,. fifty years next autumn. John W. WILLEY, Sr., and his son, John W. WILLEY, Jr., the last named a present resident of Kansas City, Mo., built the mill. It was a combination institution being used for a saw mill in which material for the houses and other buildings of the early settlers and the bolted flour were made. Shingles also were rived out at the mill. The elder WILLEY and his son left Retreat, a little town on the Jeffersonville & Indianapolis railroad about Marc~ 1857, for Kansas. Twenty days later they landed in Wy.andotte and proceeding at once to Blue Mound, seven miles southeast of Lawrence, bought a claim and picked out a site for a mill on the Wakarusa creek. The location was on the farm then owned by Robert ERVIN. The father returned to Indiana and securing the machinery for the mill shipped it as far as possible by rail and then loaded it on a boat for Kansas City, where it landed some time in August. They hauled the equipment for the pioneer flouring mill overland from Kansas City to Blue Mound, hewed out timbers for a frame, erected a mill which was a combination saw mill and grist mill, sawed the lumber to board up the framework and began the manufacture of those two great essentials to the pioneer settlers, flour and building material. Some of the incidents of those times when the WILLEYS with their flouring mill were doing their part toward making of the new commonwealth are interesting. When they first came to Wyandotte, they procured a pony from a Methodist preacher, William BUTT,who lived at Quindaro. They took turns riding the pony. One would mount the pony and ride ahead to the summit of some hill, where he would dismount and walk along, the second one taking the pony and riding ahead as soon as he had come up with the animal. Thus they made the journey through what then was the Indian country. Among other things which they shipped with their machinery was a yoke of oxen. These patient animals were of the utmost value in the new .country. They were strong and patient--two qualities much needed in the hauling of logs and timbers. On Sunday the oxen were hitched to a wagon and trotted away bearing the family of their owner to religious worship. In breaking sod the oxen deserve great credit. Three yokes would pull a 20-inch plow through the virgin soil, leaving it ready for the planting of crops. The farm where this pioneer flouring mill was located is owned by James WILLEY and is said to be one of the most beautiful rural places in Douglas county. From Lawrence World, May 22, 1907 Submitted by Vivian CLOUGH, Clinton, Ks. �95 Lawrence Daily Journal, Sept. 6, 1881 DEATH OF J.W. WILLEY J.W. WILLEY, of Blue Mound, who in company with his wife, were thrown from a buggy on Sunday week, while returning from church', died on Sunday morning last at nine o'clock. Mr. WILLEY, for several days after the accident, supposed that he might recover, but .congestion of the brain supervening, he gradually showed signs of dissolution, until Sunday, when the, great change came. Mr. WILLEY came to Kansas in 1857, and had lived on the present homestead ever since. He had his golden wedding in December last. He has always been marked for great uprightness of character. He won the esteem of his neighbors and all who had any business or social intercourse with him, by a strict observance of the golden rule. He was seventy-three years old, and leaves nine children-five of whom only will be able to be present at his funeral, one of whom is J.W. WILLEY, of this city. The funeral will be held at Blue Mound to":day, and the procession will reach Oak Hill Cemetery about two o'clock. It is a singular coincidence that the father of Mr. WILLEY came to his death in a similar manner to his son, dying after suffering the same length of time. We are glad to know that Mrs. WILLEY, who has been enduring the pain of a dislocated shoulder, shows good reason for believing that she may recover.

From my acquaintance at an early period of your history, I will say there were never nobler, or more self-sacrificing, more patient-enduring women adorning the best type of our christian civilization anywhere in this goodly land. As illustrative of a retentive memory which nearly fails me, I will relate a conversation I could not help overhearing one night, when in Lawrence we were all sleeping in temporary houses, of tents. It was during the first trial periods, for Lawrence had many. This husband said to his wife in most dispairing tones: "My dear, how can we stand these privations and sufferings? What shall we do? Which way can we turn? We have no preparation for the winter, no house, no clothing~ no nothing:" and he ended by saying: "Let us quit this place and go back east." To this the wife replied in most decided tones: "No I won't; I should be ashamed. I did not want to. come, and you know it, but you have got me here and I am bound to stick it out, come what will." Noble woman! I thought, thank God for pluck. It's the stuff of which glorified natures were made. For thirty-two years I have never forgotten that good woman or that fearful night, but I have never spoken to her as I can remember. If she was dead I could give her name, and that would reveal the name of one of your honored and prosperous citizens. That woman triumphed. She had her way. It proved to them a good way. Others too there were who counted their lives not dear unto themselves, but endured hardship as good �I 99 ; soldiers. Such has been my admiration for these women of Larence that I have never ceased to make mention of them as "honorable women not a few." At a later day, when Quantrell and his gang draped your city in mourning, the very hour I received a dispatch of the raid at Atchison, I started alone and on horseback, leaving about 9 O'clock in the evening, road all night by the way of Oskaloosa, and in the early morning at sunrise, entered the deserted town. Lawrence was to the free state men what Jeruselem was to the Jews, and Topeka was our Mount Gerisim. I at once proceded to the church where. so many were laid awaiting burial. There I saw weeping children with brave mothers, and brokenhearted fathers and widows who could not be comforted. What a spectacle to God, to angels and to men! The women of Lawrence, that day, were alone equal to the occasion. There were not undertakers to do their work. With willing hands and throbing hearts they prepaired the bodies for burial and then returned to the work of life more than ever sanctified for its duties. Women schooled in such a school, disciplined by such adversity, are equal to any emergency, they always succeed. I have just finished reading the late act of the Legislature, which now places the ballot for municipal elections in your hands for the first time. This is not the "law of Kansas," not the old "Bogus Code" we used to set at naught, made for Kansas by an invasion of the ballot box from Missouri, but the genuine law enacted by your own chosen legislators. By this law new responsibilities are placed upon you, and new duties. They cannot be laid aside or transferred to others. They are your duties, your responsibilities. Law is the idol of American worship. Liberty subordinated to law is the highest type of human government. To bow in adoration to such a divinity can hardly be called idolatry, it is devotion to human happiness. This is no occasion for trifling, and you are not butterfly triflers. The ballot is not for sport, and it is no question of taste, and it is none of convenience,; it is none of precedent; you are now to make precedents; you have none to follow. This is a position of earnest, not to say dreadful responsibility. Have you thought what was involved in the elective franchise? Have you seen the proud eminence in which you are placed? You are singled out, selected from all the women of the world to wield this potent instrumentality of good or evil. You are now by law put forward as the representative women of all the world's history. Let me speak plainly as well as kindly to you. You are placed upon an elevation and cannot conceal yourselves. You stand uncovered now as Moses did when he received the law, then to attract public attention, "there were thunder and lightenings and the noise of a tempest waxing louder and louder." Now we have tamed that lightening to run upon wires, and given it a voice to speak. It has already spoken of your position under this law, into the ears of every civilized nation of the globe. Moses and the law of Sinai had no such a hearing. Now what �answer will you make to your anxious country men and country women? What can you say? More than wordsl I will ask--What can you, and will you do? It's action, now that the day of argument and persuasion is past. The crisis of execution is upon you. As I have hinted heretofore, you more than equalled all just expectation. You will again, some of the older among you, remember how I plead for the freedom of Kansas, but not for herself alone. Not simply for the men and women of that day, but for the good it could do and be, to the people of ~he other territories, to all the states, and to all mankind. It was, if successful, to be a shining mile stone upon the road of human progress to the promised era of the world's deliverance. Kansas was then put forward and the new law of the people's ballot. She pioneered the high road to freedom. There the two systems, involving the two forms of civilization, first met in combat, and the first victory achieved. This was followed by other and greater ones, until slavery could neither spread or exist where it w~s. What a responsibility Kansas had at that day. The result has been a glorious record in human history. It will live forever. Citizenship and the ballot are twin sisters underlying the American idea of a representative republic. That idea has now crystalized into law for the first time. Equality of citizenship with you means equality of rights, of duties and of responsibilities. Again I plead with you to act, to register and to vote, not more for yourselves than for the good of others, for you now hold as many rights and priveleges as any women in the world. Kansas laws have always been liberal toward the orphan, the wife and the widow. The old system making a wife a sort of an appendage to some man, and dying, calls her his "relict," never was countenanced in Kansas. The more decent and advanced ideas have there always prevailed and you are now.well prepared for this trail. To this great movement, the extension of suffrage which has been pending for a quarter of a century, you are first called to act. Kansas is again in the lead. Municipal suffrage means equal suffrage, soon to be extended outside of cities, to all the inhabitants of the state, and all will soon be placed upon an equal footing, with the same restrictions and limitations as to age and residence. To this it has come at last. You may not have asked for this law, or seen that it was of use to you, and may not have felt it would be useful to you or to the country. Many of you have made the men believe you did not want the ballot. But all wants, likes or dislikes are now laid aside, all quibbling is obsolete. You are brought under law face to face with duties and responsibilities. What is your decision? Is the voice of Kansas as a pioneer state in all good deeds to be heard? How our anxious ~o~ntrymen in 1856, hung with breathless anxiety upon the decIsIons of Kansas. The captive in his cell for opinions sake, the struggling serf in foreign countries, �:161: '--- the slave in his bondage, prayed; they all prayed; the poor of all the world prayed that the cause of freedom might live. It did live by the votes of men and the trials of women. That triumph will go down gloriously through all the ages. Do you realize that the eyes of the world are again upon Kansas? Men and women in all civilized countries are longing to see the success of the experiment of equal and impartial suffrage. This experiment has to this hour never been fully tried. It is in your power to make it a success or a failure. You can now turn the dial of the world's progress backward or forward. What answ~r to the world's great question will you give? Ohl if only you could hold your ear to the great world's telephone, hung in the heavens, while the bell calls you, and listen to the numbered voices trembling on electrical currents, because of man's inhumanity to woman, you would sieze this occasion to make this weapon of defense, the power of the ballot, a success beyond all further questioning.

The officers and members are all working together in the ranks, acknowledging but one leader--the King of kings, whose voice they hear even now, as it whispers, "It is I who goeth before thee, be not afraid." We give below the pledge of membership and names.

Being < ' �,105 The obituary in the Lawrence JournalWorld of 1 December 1914 had bold headlines: A STRONG WOMAN GONE Mrs. Richard Cord1ey Figured Extensively in Early Kansas History Funeral Will be at the Congregational Church \~ere She Labored So Long i, Details follmved about the widmv of Dr. Richard Cordley, pioneer pastor of the Plymouth Congregational Church of Lawrence. Born in Malster, Nottingham, England on 13 April 1832 as Mary Minta Cox, she was the daughter of John and Elizabeth Cragg (Minta) Cox. Her husband, Dr. Cordley, had been born also in Nottingham. MRS. DR, R, eORDLEY. A relative, Evelyn Ingham of Escalon, California, who has had some correspondence with the Douglas County Genealogical Society, wrote of her disappointment that Mrs. Cordley's obituary did not provide more details of the family in England, but speculated that perhaps since "they were so religious, Mrs. Cordley might not care to have everyone knmving that her family had oivued the Druid's Tavern and the Horse & Groom, and that her uncle (who raised her in Michigan after the death of her parents) also oivued a tavern there." In his book, "Pioneer Days in Kansas", published by Boston's Pilgrim Press in 1909, Dr. Cordley wrote movingly about his beloved wife, her contributions to his career and their life together. "On account of the unsettled condition of the country I came alone to Kansas in 1857. The day I entered Lawrence I found the town very full of people. They jostled each other on the streets and stood in knots on the corners. I began to think Laivrence a pretty lively place. But I soon learned that a great free State Convention i~S in session. The administration at Washington proposed to force on the people of Kansas the hated Lecompton constitut:i!on':" This was the historic convention of 2 DeceIDber 1857 which was called to protest against a constitution ivhich recognized slavery. It was held in the unfinished building of Plymouth church, called the Old Stone Church. An account in the Kansas City Star relates that "i ts windows were boarded up I and its doors w'ere rough boards nailed together, but it was the best meeting place in tOiVU, and was used for many important gatherings, aside from those of a religious nature. Winter was coming on when Dr. Cordley arrived, and the unplastered walls ivere comfortless." He took his own small amount of savings, with which he had planned to return east for his bride, and instead put it into repairs for the church. "It i~S a great disappointment," Mrs. Cordley remembered. "I had expected to be married at the same time as my school friend, Kitty." "Mter about a year I " Dr. Cordley Ivrote, "I ivent back (to Michigan) and brought my ,vife. She I~S English born, and had enjoyed a delightful �I I'06 . childhood in her father's house in Nottingham. Her father and mother dying, she came to America at the age of fourteen to live with her aunt. It was a great change from her father's English home, with all its comforts, to a farmhouse in the back woods. But she adapted herself to the new life with the zest of her ardent nature. Gathering flowers and berries in the ,mods, and boating on the lal<e, she ,.,as happy all day long. She was educated at the seminary at Ypsilanti, one of the best schools in that region. When she came to Kansas, farm life in Michigan had gathered about it all the comforts of civilization, and she entered into the experience of pioneering for the second time. "At first ·we lived in a hired house in the outskirts of the town. Then we secured a home of our own. It was a little cottage on a gentle slope on Ne,v- York street. It stood on the open prairie, but we soon had some flowers and shrubs and trees growing, and it became quite an attractive spot. There were only three small rooms below, and two half-story chambers above. Six hundred dollars a year, as prices then were, did not allow a very large margin for costly furniture, but the pastor' s ,.,ife had a knack for . home-maldng, and a few dainty touches camlmake simple things show to advantage. A cheap but pretty paper transformed the ,valls, a simple but bright carpet covered the floor, and every/thing in the room seemed as if it belonged there. It was as cozy a home as one could find anYlv-here. After the custom of the time it ,vas painted white, with green blinds, and looked very pretty among the growing trees. "And that little home entertained more people than many a pretentious mansion. La.,v-rence seemed to be one day's journey from everywhere. No matter where one started from, he ·would reach La,v-rence the first night. Brethren, traveling, always spent a night in our home, usually going and returning. A barn or shed built by myself, sheltered their horses as our house sheltered them. Not only ministers, but laymen in the churches, at our request, came to our house as they passed through tmm. Ministers coming to Kansas al,vays came to our house first to confer about their locations and their fields, and very often to remain until the way was cleared for them. In many cases they would leave their families ,v-i th us, ,.,hile they went to look up their fields. In some cases this required two or three ,.,eeks. It ,vas a rare company of people which gathered in that little home from time to time, and their presence brightened up our life wonderfully. Sometimes it threw a burden on the pastor's wife, but she bore it cheerfully, and I can testify that the most cultured of our visitors seemed to enjoy her dining-room more than they did my study. Once a very handsome team drove up with a couple of gentlemen. They were one of our pastors and a wealthy layman of his church. They ,v-ere making a tour of the State, and stopped to spend the night with us. They ,v-ere both charming men, and we enjoyed their visit very much. In the morning they lingered a while after breakfast, and at last we reluctantly bade them good-bye. After they were gone Mrs. Cordley began to clear the table, and found that the lay brother had left a dollar under his plate. She sat do,m and had a good cry. She had enjoyed their visit so much, and it spoiled it all to feel that he thought hospi tali ty could be bought ,.,i th money. . "The pastor's home ,vas also a sort of a parish house. Officers, commlttees and members often met there to confer; the ladies met for entertainments and socials and sewing; and young people ,.,ere especially made to feel at home. Mrs. Cordley had a meeting of young ladies nearly every week at our house to spend an afternoon. Sometimes they sewed, �------ -" sometimes they had readings, and sometimes they had singing and prayer. Her chief aim was that the meetings should never be tedious, and never degenerate into frivolity. H~Ee they planned for picnics, socials and fairs, and other means of interesting girls and helping the church. There were usually tw"enty or more present, filling the little parlor to its utmost capacity ... Thus the daughters of Plymouth Church learned early to._" do their part. "Once my wife baJeed up a large batch of mince pies for the Christmas season. With her, making mince pies ,vas a fine art, and she had had unusual success this time. Just as she was taking the last pie out of the oven, one of our country families, 'vhom vie esteemed very highly, came in. Mrs. Cordley could not resist the temptation of having them sample her pies. So one of the pies was cut, and very soon disposed of. Before they had quite finished ~ating their pie, another family came in, and a second pie was disposed of. And so it kept on all the afternoon with no place where she could breaJe the connection. We were spared, therefore, any bad dreams from that batch of pies." Dr. Cordley had just finished a three weeks' exchange with the Kansas City pastor when the Quantrell raid came on 21 August 1863. He and Mrs. Cordley had been glad to get bacle from Kansas City, he notes, and to have forty miles bet'veen them and the border ruffians. Of the return home, he writes: "Our little cottage had just been repainted, and as we approached it in the moonlight, that evening it seemed a gem among the trees that 'vere just grmving up around it. It was our first home, and like all first homes, was very dear to us. We ,valked around about to view it from several different points. We had the full comfort of it all the next day." Then came the raid. Dr. Cordley 'vas one of the many marked for special attention (says the U. S. Biographical Dictionary, Kansas Volume, published in Chicago in 1879). "He was sought for earnestly, but not found. His home, hmvever, ,vas burned and all its contents. He remained on the field taking his Spencer rifle, doing guard duty in the city in rotation with other citizens." The Cordleys had to run for their lives to escape. In the afternoon, after that terrible morning of doing what could be done to help the bereaved ones, they found time to visit the ruins of their o,vu home. Dr. Cordley described the scene: "All that remained 'vas a bed of embers and ashes. Not a booJe or sermon, not a letter or paper, not a relic of childhood or memento of friend 'vas saved. As 've stood looking at the disconsolate scene, Mrs. Cordley quietly Ivept. The Rev. Bodley (superintendent of missions) turned to:her and said in his gentlest tones, 'Don't cry, Ma.ry. YOU;) have got all you asked for. We are all here.' No more tears 'vere shed for the ruined""home. So many all about 'vere carrying heavier sorrmvs that 've could but be thankful at our ovm escape." . ___ " _"'"" __ ," A -further sadness was-t:6-come to~ Mary'-Cordley with the death of her husband on 11 0uly 1904. They had earlier lost two baby daughters, Minnie and Lilie, in 1867 and 1869. In 1908 she moved to Topeka to live with a friend, Mrs. Lucia o. Case. She said that she left Lawrence and came to Topeka to live because Lawrence reminded her of sorrows in her life. "My husband is buried there, and my two baby daughters," sh~_ ~01-d a Topeka Daily Capitol ,r_eporter o~~_ ~L}909_____ �i08 A report- (undated) in the Topeka Daily Herald in the library------of the Kansas State Historical Society said: "One day last week Mrs. Richard Cordley, an aged woman 'veIl known to all Kansans, was rescued from the river where she had attempted to drown herself. She gave lonesomeness as .the reason she wished to die. Her husband died a year or more ago and she has lived alone, or almost altogether alone. Hencefore she will have companions. But it seems hardly possible to those who know her or know about her that she will ever again have company, in the real sense of the word, 'this side of the river.' "Undoubtedly her mind was affected, but that only makes the incident sadder. In her younger days she was a strong woman-stronger than the average woman who is a leader in her community. her husband, Richard Cord ley , and she were among the earliest pioneers in Kansas. He was a minister of the Congregational faith; she was a faithful and effective worker in his congregation. To students of Kansas University' his figure was a familiar one for thirty-odd years. Less was seen of her by the students and by the general public, but she was no less a faithful and efficient worker than her husband. OVer and over again both of them earned such rewards as are supposed to be the deserts of faithful stewards. "And now, her life-long companion and supporter gone, her mind was weakened greatly, the woe of lonesomeness eating into her heart, this aged woman tries to end it all. "To Mrs. Cordley in her sadness and loneliness there Ivill go out heartfelt sympathy from a host of friends who held her and her good husband in high esteem in the years that are gone." She was laid to rest beside her husband in Oak Grove cemetery in Lawrence along with their two baby daughters. Surviving were two grandchildren, Richard C. and Alfred M. Griffith, sons of W. E. Griffith and their daughter Maggie who had died earlier.

Sweets One Lawrence woman of the 1850's is remembered today for her courage and convict ions.; Jul ia Archibald Holmes, who', in 1854 arrived in Lawrence with her parents, John and Jane Archibald as part of the New England Emig~ant Aid Company group, by 1858 held the distinction of being the fi~st woman to scale Pikes Peak. What made the event even more noteworthy was that while climbing the mountain and crossing the plains, she wore an outfit which was radically different from the longskirted outfits worn at the time. The kindlof dress which twentyyear-old Juiia A. Holmes wore has been dubbed: "The Bloomer" or "The Reform" dress and had been "introduced ,by eastern feminists a . 1 few years before." The outfit, which consis~ed of a tunic, usually of calico, :which reached the knees and pantaloons underneath gathered at the ankles. Soon after joining the Lawrence party which: was trave I ing to the Pikes Peak ar~a seeking gold, Julia Photo realized t~at her costume was The Bloomer Girls, by Charles Neilson Gattey attracting a great deal of attention. The only other woman in the party in whom she hoped to find a sympathetic friend suggested that she "put on a long dress" because the men "ta lk: so much about you." Her reply: "I cannot a f ford to please their taste ... " Indeed, Julia praised the "bloomer dress" for the comfort, convenience and freedom it allowed her.2 It may be: that Julia A. Holmes influenced other Kansas women to adopt the "Bloomer dress," as a Baltimore newspaper of the 1850's quoted the K~nsas TRIBUNE as saying: "Perhaps Lawrence is the only city in Amerita where a majority of the ladies wear Bloomers. During a pleasant 'day they may be seen in all parts of our place~-not walking out ,for the novelty of the thing, but making calls and pursuing their ordinary avocation, without even suspecting that their costume was attracting unusual attention; and, indeed, it does not. The ladies consider them far more convenient than the street sweeper; and t'hey ought to be the best judges. ,,3 , I 1 2 "A Bloomer Girl Conquers Pikes Peak," by Marqaret Solomon American History _ Illustrated, Vol'.

She was probably the oldest person in the state, as she would have been 102 had she lived until Christmas. She had a written statement from her old, master's son, giving the date of her birth, December 25, 1784, taken from the plantation register~ She was well known to nearly.all the residents of Lawrence, who for several years have supported her by their charity. The funeral took place Saturday from her home, corner New Jersey and Warren streets. Lawrence Gazette, June 2, 1887 Vinland A bevy of girls from this place secured a team and farm wagon and each bearing a basket of good things to eat, set off on last Saturday at 7 o'clock in the morning to have a picnic, all to themselves; where they went or what they did is their own business. They returned at 8 in the evening, and as they drove through our town a number of our young men standing in front of the postoffice cheered them lustily. Nothing daunted they drove on and disposed of the crowd at their various homes until the two that had charge of the team were all that remained. Next morning they were all in their places at Sabbath school, looking rosy and happy. �132 LUCY WILDER WOODWARD Lucy Martin WILDER WOODWARD was one of the teachers in the first schools of LaWrence, Ks. She was a beloved, highly intelligent, well respected person and had accomplished much in her short life. She is better known by her maiden name, Lucy WILDER, because her teaching was done before she was married. Lucy was born 7 May 1837 in Bolton, Worcestercounty, Mass., the daughter of Abraham and Cynthia FLETCHER WILDER. She came to Lawrence, Ks. in February 1855, with her mother and her brother, Dr. Abraham WILDER. Her father and brother, John H. WILDER had come to Lawrence the previous October with the Third Emigrant Aid Company part)'. Lucy WILDER was well educated and was an experienced teacher in Massachusetts, and was _.Lucy ('oVILDER) WO<!l'WAI~D.~. _ hired to open the third term of schools in Lawrence in the Emigrant Aid Building on Massachusetts Street in the spring of 1856. She was teaching school the 21st day of May when Sheriff Samuel JONES and U.S. Marshal I.B. DONALDSON rode into town with a posse of several hundred men. C.L. EDWARDS, principal of the early school, wrote about this in his article, "Early Schools of Lawrence," Lawrence Daily Journal and Daily Kansas Tribune, June 8, 1882. He said, "The destruction of the Hotel and printing presses on that day temporarily scattered the school; but it was reassembled when comparative quiet was restored, and continued during the season, with occasional interruptions, when the teacher exchanged her occupation of moulding minds and teaching the young idea how to shoot, and engaged in the more practical occupation of moulding bullets and rolling cartridges for her father, brothers, and friends to shoot in defense of their chosen home." In November, arrangements were made for a six months school to be held in the basement of the Unitarian Church [933 Ohio: Street]. In April, 185,7, "Quincy High School" was officially opened with Lucy as one of the teache~s in the Higher Department. In 1858 she received $600.00 per annum. She resigned after the fall term of 1858. She was a member of the Unitarian Church and was involved in community activities. At the first Douglas County Fair held in October, 1859, at the Congregational Church and adjacent grounds. in Lawrence, she was on the committee of Class 1119, which included tne ·categories of·lJild··Flowers·, Cultivated Flowers, and Boquet of Mixed Flowers. She is attributed with the drawing of the early sketch of Lawrence, Ks. viewed from the area near the Unitarian Church and which was placed in the cornerstone of that church. On the following page is a copy of this sketch taken from A HiStory of Lawrence,. Kansas, by Richard CORDLEY. Lucy married Brinton Webb WOODWARD in Lawrence, Ks. on October 9, 1859. He had come to Lawrence on May 20, 1855, from Pennsylvania and opened a combined drug and book store which grew into the Round Corner Drug Store, located at 801 Massachusetts St. It is still in operation today, although not by the WOODWARD family, and is the oldest continuous business west of St. Louis, Mo. �133 ---1'. ___________ _ I \ - -- -- ~ -------'--:..:-- --- A daughter, Mary Webb WOODWARD, was born in Lawrence on January 8, 1862. She also was a teacher and taught German and English in Lawrence and Topeka high schools. She later married Thomas F. DORAN of Topeka, Ks. On July 25, 1865, in Kansas City, Lucy died at the age of 28, following the birth of a son, Brinton Wilder WOODWARD. He was born on July 22, and ". died July 26, 1865 in Lawrence. Following are the notices of their deaths from the Kansas Daily Tribune, Lawrence, Ks., Wednesday, July 26, 1865 and July 27, 1865: There was a report in town that Mrs. WOODWARD, wife of B.W. WOODWARD, died in, Kansas City yesterday. The fact was, intelligence reached her friends yesterday, that she was not expected to live till night, but no intelligence of her death. Few ladies have been more highly respected than Mrs. WOODWARD, and all who knew her will await with anxiety further intelligence, and hope that she may yet recover. Thursday, July 27, 1865: The report which was in circulation here on Tuesday evening, of the death of Mrs. B.W. WOODWARD, proved painfully true. No intelligence could cause a deeper sorrow in the hearts of our people. Affable, possessing a kind heart, a woman of Christian virtues, she was universally beloved and respected. DIED At Kansas City, Tuesday, July 25th, Mrs. Lucy M.W. WOODWARD, wife of B.W. WOODWARD, of this city, aged 28 years. Died - In Lawrence, Wednesday, July 26th, Brinton Wilder, infant son of the above, aged four days. Funeral services at the Congregational Church this forenoon at ten o'clock--to meet at the house of the deceased at 9 1/2 o'clock. Friends of the family are invited to attend. [Note. - The Congregational Church at that time was located at 6th and Louisiana Streets.] Lucy and her son were buried on private property, probably the WOODWARD residence, which is now 615 Tennessee St. According to the present owner, Dr. Frances INGEMANN, there were ghost stories associated with the house, of someone who died during the Civil War, but she does not recall the details. This would give credence to the idea that they were buried there. In �,134 December, 1872, Lucy and her son were reinterred in Section 2,of Oak Hill Cemetery. Two stones mark her grave: a small one for her and her son, and a large one for her and her husband with the following epitaph: "An Earnest life Loving and helping." And the grave is not .its goal. Following is the eulogy given by a fellow teacher, Sarah A. BROWN, at the 25th reunion of Quincy HighSchool, held June 2, 1882 (printed in the Western Home Journal, Lawrence, Ks., June 8,1882). Miss BROWN then delivered a beautiful eulogy to the memory of Miss WILDER, who resigned her position as teacher at the end of the 5th term. It was as follows: Few faces stand out more distinctly upon memory's wall than hers, to whom I gratefully bring this tribute of affection and esteem this afternoon. I shall not attempt to give you a complete sketch of her life. If I can bring before you my estimate of her work and worth as a teacher, it is all I shall try. You all recall her bright face, not beautiful perhaps , as judged by an artist's eye, who should take account of regular features and clear complexion, but beautiful to all who knew her and saw it lit up with intelligence, .who witnessed its quick play of expression, now sparkling wit? keenest fun, now saddened with tenderest sympathy. It was a face to be remembered, and which no photograph could do justice to. Lucy M. WILDER was born in Boston, May 7th, 1837. She received here such an education as the N.E. common school affords, graduating at the high school. The Yankee girl of that day must try teaching as well as housekeeping, so when scarcely sixteen we find her in the school room. In 1853 and '54.she attended the Lancaster Normal Institute.' Here she was under the instruction of such teachers as Prof. RUSSELL, well known throughout New England for his enthusiastic classes in elocution. It seems to me he did more to inspire a love. for good reading than any one of that day, and opened the way for the great army of elocutionists who now are occupying the field; Dana COLBURN, whose mental arithmetic has never been surpassed; Dr. CUTTER, whose physiology was almost the only accepted text book, as far as I remember. Those were the golden days of lectures, and she listened to Prof. AGASSIZ, on Botany, GUYOT on Geography, TENNEY on Geology, KRUSIE on Language. She caught the spirit from these true teachers, and gave it forth in full measure to her pupils. She came to Kansas among the first settlers in 1855. Her merry disposition turned all the difficulties and hardships of pioneer life into a romance to interest her friends in the days to come. Though often suffer{ng and overcome by sickness and pain she had the happy faculty of seeing the bright or the comic side, and with the aid of a quick imagination she made an entertaining' story. It was this power that made her the center ofa wide and everwidening circle of friends. In school her influence over her pupils was very great. Rough boys who had little to attract, became her lovers, sensitive boys went to her with their troubles, the girls made her their example and all moved obedient to her will. Even those �135 not directly under her care felt the influence of her bright spirit. A word to a class would make them sit up all night to listen to the matinee of the birds and see the sunrise. Reading became with her a fine art, geography had the interest of per~ sonal travel, enlivened as it was by anecdote and description. These were her specialties. I do not recollect her in other departments. In ,1859 she was married to Mr. _B.W. WOODWARD of this city, and July 25th, 1865, she left us to join the choirs invisible, but she yet lives in the hearts and memories of her friends • L ___ --: .

Submitted by Jane WIGGINS, Lawrence, Ks. ----- �1)8 i ged.ta ~-: PIONEER MOTHER ADELA HUNT DAVIS Adela HUNT was born on a farm in High Point, North Carolina in 1824 to a good and reverent Quaker couple. She and her two sisters learned to card wool and cotton fibers into thread and yarn, weave cloth, knit mittens, caps, stockings and sweaters, sew, make candles and soap, can, dry and preserve fruits and vegetables. They also studied , and learned Bible Verses and poetry. Adela learned to tailor men s suits. The girls attended New Garden Boarding School in Guilford, N.C. (later Guilford College), which was founded by their Grandfather, Nathan HUNT, a Quaker minister and farmer, with the help of the Church. ' Adela married Bartlett DAVIS, a student at the school in 1847. Her sister married his brother, Nathan DAVIS. Slavery was a concern of the family and they saw slaves chained together going past their home. Bartlett was a good farmer and they had a nice farm home with three' free negro:slaves and their families living on their farm, who they paid' wages and they owed no one. , Adela and Bartlett had six children and when their son, Samuel was ten years old and baby Della only three months, Bartlett died a sudden death, (probably a ruptured appendix). Adela was a typical southern woman and could not own ,property or vote and had no knowledge of her husband's business, so her husband's oldest brother, Winslow DAVIS was made Administrator of her estate. He sold the machinery, stock, land and home for $40,000.00 He did manage her affairs quite well. She moved to a house in the village near relatives and friends. Winslow and wife decided to move to Kansas as it was a free state in 1861 and persuaded her to come along. She left in a caravan of twentyfive covered wagons May 7, 1861. They traveled across eastern Tennessee' and the west part of Virginia to the Blue Ridge Mountains. Winslow then divided the wagons into two parts to attract less attention because the Civil War had begun. Adela's group went through the East Pass to the Ohio River, ferrying across at Madison, Indiana. They saw thousands of Uniformed troops on trains to Richmond and marching in Virginia. Adela stopped at her sister's home in Park County in Western Indiana after a month's travel. Winslow and wife went on to Kansas to the Hesper community southeast of Eudora in Douglas County. She came on in March 1862 with her children by train to Fort Leavenworth where Winslow met her with horses and wagon, ferrying across the Kansas River at Eudora. Winslow had a two room house for her but it seemed a strange and lonely treeless prairie in a new country. The next morning she saw a glorious Kansas sunrise and decided she would love Kansas and she did:, Winslow invested her money in land but he died in 1884 and left no will for himself or, her. His wife inherited everything, even Adela's land but not her house area. Since Winslow had no children his wife's family inherited everything when she died so Adela was on her Own. Adela put her seamstress skill to work and sewed for a living, usually $1.00 per day, and she educated all her children. Shawnee Indians still lived in the area as this was the Shawnee Reserve until 1854, when they could sell their reserve land. These'Indians were friendly and never harmed the DAVIS family because they treated them kindly and gave them food. , �1)9 QUANTRILL rode up to her house on Aug. 20, 1863, asking for a drink of water which she pumped and gave hiin and told him she had no man and six children. When he gave a command his many men from all around the house arose to their feet and got on their horses in the road. Later she heard a shot and the cries of her neighbor, Mrs. STONE when they shot Mr. STONE. Adela's son, Samuel married Emma STUBBS. They had nine children, one baby died and the xest graduated from Hesper Academy. A daughter, Martha, married Edmund STANLEY, school teacher and superintendent of schools in Lawrence and for the State of Kansas. He was the first President of Friends University. They had four children. Adela's daughter, Roxana, was a teacher and principal at Lawrence and Denver, Colorado, but never married. Daughter Margaret was also a teacher and fruit grower in California. She married Theodore WELLS and they had a daughter. Son~ James DAVIS became a businessman, bought a University for $50,000. in· 1898 and gave it to Kansas Yearly Meeting of Friends. He had two sons who died as babies. Daughter, Della was a school teacher and married a Friends Minister and Missionary, M. Wilford ROUNDTREE. They had no children. Adela died in 1906, saying, "I hear angels and beautiful music." From Eudora Area Historical Soci~ty through·:the courtesy of Adela's grand daughter, Mildred DAVIS WATSON.

BISHOFF, a young lady beloved by all who knew her. She and her brother were students of the State Normal school at Emporia, session of 1886-7. At the close of the session she arrived at the home of her parents full of life, joy and activity. The brother and sister at home were ':having the measles, then prevalent in the vicinity. She and her brother took them, and as Cora was getting better of them the uneliminatedpoison settled on the brain, causing high fever and deliriUm:. Drs • WILLEY , SIMMONS ,HARVEY and TAYLOR were called in council, but of all that medical skill could do, she fell a victim to ·the grim monster Death, who claimed her as his own onSunday.afternoon, Feb. 20. A large concourse of. sorrowing friends assembled at the residence, thence proceeding with. the remains to the M.E. church at Eudora, where an able sermon waspreaC:hed by Rev.

While they have been separated long distances a number of times, they have ·always called Lawrence home, and when both were ready to retire, they arranged to live almost in adjoining houses. Born in Erie, Penn., on January 14, 1853, they moved.with their parents, Mr. and Mrs. William MILNER from Iowa to Kansas in 1857, their father preempting land near lola. Iil the fall of 1862 they moved to North Lawrence, which was then but a dense woods, with a few log cabins along the river, ' but with no railroad, bridge nor telegraph line, a ferry opposite their present home on Elm street, being the connecting link with the other side of the river. The woods, they recall. furnished wonderful places in which to play and at Bismarck grove,where the. trees were then mere saplings, they greatly enjoyed bending these over and pretending they were horses, as they swayed up and down on them. Perhaps some of the bent trees still to be seen there today are among those they chose for their champing steeds. The Delaware Indians were still living at that time on a reservation eas,t of town on Mud creek. When QUANTRILL and his band invaded the town on an August morning in 1863, the MILNER family was then living in a house just north of the old cemetery west of the University, in which the victims.were first buried. Mount Oread was then barren of trees and the smoke from the burning buildings could be clearly seen in the early dawn. Great was the excitement that prevailed and Mrs. MILNER and the children joined in begging their father and another man living with them to go at once and hide in the tall grass along the ravine. They finally did so and met with no misfortune. Six pickets were stationed around the house a good part of the day, however, to watch for any 'forces that might be coming to the assistance of the citizens. When the destruction was over,Mr. and Mrs. MILNER drove their ox team to Lawrence, visiting the Methodist church, which had been turned into a morgue. Upon inquiring what she might do to help, the mother was told to go home and prepare something to eat for the men who were digging the burial trenches. Cookies, biscuits and milk pails full of milk and hot tea, she carried to the workers at sundown, accompanied by the twins,who remember clearly: the men standing with their shovels as they stopped a few minutes from their gruesome work. "That's capital tea," selid Mr. SIMPSON, who was in charge, the children being particularly impressed with the word capital, which they. had never heard used in that connection before. All. night the men worked, till the moon· had gone down. In January 1865, on their twelfth birthday, the twins moved with their family again to North Lawrence, their father having purchased five acres in the town, which was then rapidly settling up. The railroad had come thru on· New Year's day. In the early days, it will be remembered, North Lawrence had its own mayor and council, police department and stores. Grant toWnship, too, was a part of Jefferson county. �141 In their former home, which was remote from Lawrence, the girls had, studied with a private teacher in their own home, and later had attended school at the old Unitarian church, where their teachers were Miss Clara ARCHIBALD and Miss Mary WELLS. After moving to North Lawrence they went, to a private school for a while. However, educational advantages were scarce at that time and attending school meant usually beginning each fall at the beginning of a text book and continuing as far as time permitted,~the student making a little farther progress each year. However, the two women have not been idle thruthe years but have attained a satisfactory education 'in 'their minglingwith.people and thru books. They have from girlhood days been interested in the woman's rights movement, on which subject they listened to lectures by Susan B. ANTHONY and other noted women. They have been earnest workers in the W.C.T.U., their mother having been a member of the first organization in the state" that founded-at Bismarck grove. The Methodist church and the Current Event club are also organizations which have claimed:-their active interest. Mrs. BIGGS.has been a widow for a number of years. As the wife of a ' Methodist minister, she lived in various places but Lawrence always called to her strongly as home, as it did also to her sister, who, after teaching in the schools of Lawrence and Douglas .cotinty,and in Lane university, where she was the ,first· teacher of art, later was connected with various children's homes, then turned to nursing, from which she several years ago retired. She has in her home a number of paintings which are her own work. Much of her time now is devoted to needlework, in which she is quite expert. Just lately she has designed a pattern for an appliqued quilt, upon which she is to begin work, now that' she has reached her seventy fifth birthday. , Mrs. BIGGS is the mother of four sons, L.C. BIGGS, of Lawrence; W.M. BIGGS of Salina; W.L. BIGGS of Mound City, Mo., and W.E. BIGGS of Topeka. Two brothers are also living, C.E.MILNER of McAllaster, Okla., and G.D. MILNER of Havensville. Another brother, who was to have made his home with his unmarried sister, died a short time ago, shortly after having returned to Lawrence from Nevada. To imagine that they are living in the past would be doing the two women a great injustice. They are thoroly alive to conditions of today·' and enjoy the present as much as do others much younger. They do not view the past with regret that it has gone but rather with the idea that it has brought something better, making this the best time that the world has yet seen.

PETER LAPTAD Agnes PETRIE was born at Leith, Scotland, and died at Lawrence, Kansas, January 6,1931, at the age of 83 years, one month and seven days. She came with her parents to America when she was three years old, and they first settled in Illinois, and afterwards carne to Kansas, locating first at El Dorado, and then coming·to Lawrence, where she has lived ever since. She was married to Peter LAPTAD when she was nineteen years old, and until they both were well along in years they lived on their farm north of Lawrence. When QUANTRILL raided Lawrence, her family lived in town, in a house that stood near where the West End grocery is now. To Mr. and Mrs. LAPTAD were born five children, Opal, Evedene, Pearl, Coskrie, (Mrs. Allie CARROL) and Paul, all of whom are living. The funeral was held on Thursday. Mrs. LAP TAD was a remarkable woman, even in those early years when as measured by present circumstances, all women were remarkable. She shared with her family the sufferings and hardships of those first days of Kansas, and nobly did her part in the struggles and hardships they encountered. She was brilliant and full of energy" and that she was far in advance of other girls of the west is shown by the fact that at twelve years old she was teaching school. Her husband died a few years ago. She lived a long and useful life and went down to her grave honored and respected by every one who knew her. - C.S. FINCH.

LEAMER Here 57 years Wednesday Fifty seven years ago Wednesday, July 2, 1856, Mrs. Anna M. LEAMER arrived in Lecompton, from Altoona, Pa. The railroad ended at St. Louis and the rest of the journey was by steamboat to Leavenworth and from thereon by stage. Mr. and Mrs. LEAMER made their new home in a building on the corner of Woodson Avenue and Halderman Street, where he had a store. That fall he built the store building now occupied by I.A. SILLIMAN, and conducted the finest store in Douglas county. The corner where she made her home all of these fifty-seven years except for a few months when they occupied Constitutional Hall, while the present residence was being built. Mrs. LEAMER has seen great changes take place here. From one of the liveliest towns in Kansas, where violence was rampant, bloodshed of frequent occurance, and men's passions were stirred to depths seldom known in this country; after, she saw the days when Charles SUMNER described Lecompton, "as a lone widow sitting on the banks of the Kaw;" all the vicisitudes and periods of elation that the town has passed thru in becoming the beautiful peaceful village of to-day she has witnessed and felt its joy or sorrow. Violence and violent deaths were of .frequent occurance in the early: days and Mrs. LEAMER witnessed several tragedies. She saw a son of Dr. RODRIQUE stabbed, by a man by the name of THOMPSON, in the alley back of her home. SHERRARD was shot for spitting in Governor GEARY's face, on capitdl square in front of the LEAMER residence. At a social affair she saw a man stabbed. Mrs. LEAMER says that not-with-standing the bitter feeling exis1ting between the men that it never entered into the social affairs of the ladies. In the more than a half-century that Mrs. LEAMER has lived here she has been a help to a great many in distress, when death came, her help and sympathy could be depended upon, generations of young people have grown up to love her for her cheery disposition, but her greatest value to the community has been as a mother. And this recalls a statement made many years ago by her husband, in the presence of the writer. He said when a young man, someone asked him when he was going to get married, and Mr. LEAMER replied, "As soon as I can find· a woman who will be a good mother .to my children." And when he chose Anna Mary MCCORMICK he made no mistake for she has been a good mother. As the joke, laugh, and cheery disposition of Mrs. LEAMER has cheered Lecompton for fifty-seven years, so we hope it may continue for these many years for all love her.

' ....~-.... . , .------ ~ �145 Jtu~ ~~; IDA JOSEPHINE JOHANSON HECOX Ida JOHANSON was born July 7, 1844, in StocKholm, Sweden. She came to America in 1855 with her mother and father, Johanna E. and Lars JOHANSON. The exact date the family arrived in Lawrence is not known, nor do we know where the family lived. We do know that on the morning of Aug. 21, 1863, Ida's father, Lars, along with other Swedes who were brought from Sweden to work on the Lawrence windmill (9th St.), was star.:..··: tIed by the sounds of QUANTRILL's men. He was unable to find safety as did some of the" workers, and was immediately attacked by one of the raiders. In a taped conversation (March 21, 1975) with Ralph HECOX, he relates that his great grand-father, Lars JOHANSON, grabbed the horse's bridle and called for one of the Swedes' to grab an axe and kill the raider!. The man spurred his horse and at the same time shot lars through the right lung. He crawled about two miles through a cornfield to safety and lived. He also remembers being told by his father, Spencer HECOX, that holes could be seen in both the back and front of his grandfather where the bullet had IDA JOHANSON HECOX gone :through . him. It is not known when Ida met Linus HECOX, her husband-to~be, but in a letter dated August 11, 1863, from Ft. Lyon, Colorado, he writes: "Oh,how I would liked to have got a letter from ybu ••••••... It has been most two months since I have heard from you." The letter was never mailed, and it is thought that Linus may have heard from traders or travelers about QUANTRILL's raid on Lawrence. On the day of the infamous raid, not only was .her father shot; but Ida and her sister, Laura, (Mrs. Rudolph HELLSTROM) were made to pump water for the raiders .. Ida and.Linus HECOX were married on June 4,1864. From June 23.to October 29 of 1864, Linus served as wagon master of an ox-drawn freight wagon train hauling supplies to:Fort Union, New Mexico. During this time, Ida lived with his mother, Aspassia HARDING HECOX SMITH, on a farm located between the communities of Old Belvoir and Twin Mound(s) (Sl/2 NWI/2 Section 6 Marion Township). Fourteen letters were written to Linus by Ida while he served as a wagonmaster. The following excerpts are taken from her letters: July 5, 1864 Dearest Line I took Kite down to Mr. Jacob's last night and got her shoes taken off, and I never saw such a change in a horse's gait in my life. She has rode very hard since you went away, but now she rides as easy as you please and not a particle of stiffness is to be seen. I am so glad ••••• �146 Twin Mound. July 24, 1864 Dear beloved husband, Today is Sunday, almost five weeks since my precious darling left home. The last week has not went so slow, as the preceding ones. Yet, God kno~they have all passed slow enough to me. Oh, my dearest Line, my anxiety for my pet is indescribable. I am counting the days as they go by and wondering were my own Line is. But you do not get to Union any sooner for my fretting about it, do you? I am getting almost afraid to ride Kite, she stumbles so terribly. The other day as Jerome was riding to Clinton, he was galloping along slowly, and Kite stumbled and fell down right on her side and laid there quite a little while before she would get up •.• ' Twin Mound., August 2, 1864 Dearest husband, I almost fear that I have neglected writing this letter so long, that you will not receive it, yet I shall write and hope that you will.

How glad I shall be when I can sit and look for you, and how happy when I see you coming! Dearest Line I feel so very uneasy about you knowing how dangerous your trip is at any ordinary time and more so now, ,when the Indians are committing such outrages on all the different roads, on the plains. I have heard that they are running all the, ranchmen off about Ft. Kearney taking all their stock, and killing quite a number of persons ..• Twin Mound September'l, 1864 Dearest Line, .~.I have improved a great deal in riding since you went away. I do not pretend to get on a horse any other way than off of the ground. Day before yesterday I took Kite and a tinpail and started off alone hunting for grapes. I went down in the Wakarusa valley and found a few. I got off Kite and on her ~gain five times in the prairie while I was gone and then went home with my pail full of grapes, quite an exploit for one of my size and age, was it not? ,October 29, 1864 Saturday at Fathers Dearest Line, I rode up to Clinton to day for my mail, and I got a letter from my own kind husband •.. Oh! Line dear, you must not always be away from your little darling this way. Just think if something should happen that one or the other should die, and the other so far away would it not bea terrible blow for the surviving one? It would be worse than death itself to me I am sure of that. �- 147 On his return, Linus and Ida lived on their farm located on Rock Creek just a short distance froIn his mother and closer to her parents (Sl/2 NWI/2 Section 4,.Marion Township). They became parents of five children-:· _. Lottie, who:-died a:t-:·the age of eight; Robert, Guy, died of typhoid fever; Neva (Mrs. Charles PRAY); and Ida (Mrs. James GILL). Linus's half-brother, Irvin H. SMITH and his wife, Celinda, owned the half section of land south of their mother's home. In Ida's letters she speaks of Irvin and his family. Tragedy struck them in January of 1874. Irvin died on January 2 as a result of injuries received while attempting to loosen from the frozen earth an arm load of fodder. His wife, Celinda, gave birth to a daughter named, Grace Nin, on January 4. After the birth of her child, her friends had hopes of her recovery from the loss of her husband, but stating that she would not survive him long, died on January 7 leaving five small children. The baby died on September 29 of the same year at the age of 8 months and 25 days. Ida died in 1877 as a result of an injury sustained while riding her horse. She is buried in the Twin Mound cemetery near the graves of Irvin and Celinda SMITH. Ida preceded her parents in death by seven years. Johanna E. and Lars JOHANSON both died in 1885, and are buried in the Swedish cemetery now owned by the K.U. Endowment Association. In 1975, her grandson, Ralph HECOX, placed a marker on her grave and the graves of two of her children, which were previously un-marked. (Lottie 1865-1873) (Guy 1869-1890) Linus remarried and continued to farm until 1914, then left Kansas to live with his son, Robert Spencer HECOX, at Kendall, Wyoming, residing there until his death in October of 1917.

Elniff at the Cbllins Library, Baker Uni versi ~y, B81dwi:n �'149, Lawrence Journal World 1860-70 Mrs. Mary BARNES, First to Introduce Sewing by Piece work In Lawrence 1860-70 A number of years ago when the art of dressmaking was one that had to be learned with religious exactitude, many of the older persons in Lawrence ,and elsewhere will remember, Mrs. Mary BARNES as one to whom they could intrust the making of the most expensive silk or velvet dress without fear that it would not turn out right. In those days a seam--and there were five to fifteen gores in a skirt--had to come at exactly the proper place on the hip; the sleeves were long and very tight, and as the right hand is always larger than the left, separate measurements must be taken for each wrist. As an instance of the degree to which a dress must be fitted a few decades ago, Mrs. BARNES says she remembers frequently of telling a girl in her employ to set back a hook at the waist line, the length of the hook. Mrs. BARNES introduced this part of the country the system of employing girls in her shop to sew by the piece rather than by the day or week, and the success of her scheme' is attested to by the fact that she herself earned the money to erect the $15,000 building at 826 Massachusetts, which she sold a few years ago to KENNEDY and ERNST--the upper floor of which she occupied as a home for a number of years. The girls were paid half of the charge for making the dress, and as 'a result of the training which they received from her, a number of them have now become famous madames over the country. "Many of my customers were women who I never saw", said Mrs. BARNES recently. "I had printed slips on which there were blanks for filling out sixteen measurements. with this guide to work from there could hardly be a mistake in the finished product. However I soon learned to know the measurements of ~y regular customers and when one of my girls would call from another room to ask the size of Mrs. MILLER's neck or Mrs. WHITE's right wrist measure, I could answer without refering to my slip." Mrs. BARNES' first efforts at dressmaking were begun, before sewing machines were commonly known. Soon after her marriage to George TERRY she purchased a chain stitch machine which she paid for by stitching cuffs and shirt bosoms for her neighbors in Michigan at two cents a yard. Four months after the close of the war, she and her husband moved to Lawrence, arriving here on the day that LINCOLN was shot in August, 1865. "There was no place to sleep", she said, "but we finally found accomodations in the �: 150· parlor of the DURFEE House, located where the Organ factory now stands". As the stairway to the second story led from that room and there were workmen sleeping above who got up early, she arose before daylight and walked to Mount Oread, which was covered with underbrush, .and looked out on the fields of cut wheat and green corn, the view as far as Eudora being unobstructed. "A never-to-be-forgotten sight", she declares, and rushing back to her husband, she exclaimed, "0, George, this is heaven. I have never seen so far away before." HARRIS, William Kansas, Captain Her husband was a member of the firm, TERRY and which started the confectionery business later sold to WIEDEMANN. He lived but a short time after coming to and three years after his death she became the wife of William BARNES. "Aside from the education which I have picked up", said Mrs. BARNES, "my schooling was received in my father's barn in Limerick County, Ireland. In the fall when the crops had been stored away, the neighboring children would come together there. Each day they must bring two pieces of peat to keep alive the fire in the large fireplace, and two pennies to pay the teacher. There were no desks and the seats were rude benches". Following the famine of 1846-1847 the family moved to Canada and, a few years later, she came to this country where she was at one time maid to a Mrs. FLAGLER in Washington, D.C. When asked why it is that her Celtic ancestry is not evidenced in her speech she explains it thus. She had been at the capitol the day that Senator SUMNER was severely beaten by Senator BROOKS. Rushing home, she exclaimed to Mrs. FLAGLER, "0, Sinator SUMNER's killed intirely". That night she overheard Mrs. FLAGLER laughing repeating her speech to Mr. FLAGLER. Her immediate decision was that she would learn to "talk right." During her four years' stay with the FLAGLERS another incident occurred which might be of interest to many in Lawrence. Returning home one evening just as the rays of the setting sun were streaming over the windows of the conservatory at the White House, she remembered that she had forgotten the corsage which Mrs. FLAGLER had told her to bring, and which Mrs. FLAGLER was to wear at Mrs. PIERCE's reception at the White House that evening. But an idea occurred to her. She was acquainted with the doorkeeper, and maybe he would give her some flowers from the White House. He obligingly did so and as she was leaving the building she spoke to Mrs. PIERCE who was standing in the door, dressed for the reception in the most beautiful, grey watered silk gown that the little girl had ever beheld. Years later a customer came to Mrs. BARNES with a �;lsi. grey silk dress which she wished to have,made,over. It was only an instant until Mrs. BARNES recognlzed lt as the one which she had seen the first lady of the land wearing many years ago in washington. After his wife's death, President PIERCE had sent it to his neice, Mrs. F. H. SNOW. But Mrs. BARNES' ability as a dressmaker and as a financier are, after all, but minor achievements when compared with the fact that she has successfully brought up and mothered six children, none of them her own. It seems quite impossible when one talks with her to realize that she will pass her ninetieth milestone next November. Her hair,· though white, still retains the permanent marcel which Nature implanted in her raven locks eighty nine years ago and her happy outlook upon life is quite as evident as when upon her arrival in Lawrence she exclaimed, "0, this is heaven."

The night was lovely and there was a good crowd out. Quite. a number of the old folks put in an appearance to hear the young idea shoot, where a Literary .is carried on for the improvement of the mind and to enjoy a good laugh, and where there is no bickering but alL have hides thick enough to stand the pinching witicisms of their spicy papers, as is the case at Franklin.

Elniff at Spencer Research library, Kansas University �154 LIZZIE (HASKELL) FRENCH Elizabeth Parker HASKELL FRENCH was born in Weathersfield, Vermont in 1837. She came to Kansas with her family in.April '1857, and was one of the first school teachers in Lawrence. She married Charles D. FRENCH on February::Z5, 1865. Following is the notice of her death and funeral. The Daily Tribune, Mar,ch 29, 1877 Death and Funeral of a Good Pioneer Lady. The whole connnunity have heard with feel~. irigs' of sorrow: of the ,death' :of Mrs .~"Elizabeth P. FRENCH, who expired on the evening of March 27th, 1877, of cancer. Mrs. FRENCH was the only daughter of Mr. Franklin HASKELL, one of the pioneer settlers of 1854, coming to .Lawrence,we believe, with LIZZIE (HASKELL) FRENCH, the "Second Party" of New England Innnigrants, ~- '---~ and the sister of John G. and Dudley C. HASKELL, the 'latter our present member of Congress. Miss HASKELL, the subject of this sketch, remained behind the· family in New England, and came to Kansas in March, 1857. She was born at Weathersfield, Vermont, on the 23dof April, 1836, and was therefore almost forty-on~~ears old. The family were among the most respected and useful of the early pioneers. The father was a devoted Free State man, a just and upright citizen, and a true Christian, his influence and example doing much to mould the charact.er of the infant settlement at Lawrence. The mother, whose death preceded that of the daughter but a few months, was truly a pioneer mother to all who needed the good offices of a charitable, intelligent Christian woman. Miss HASKELL was married to Mr. Charles D. FRENCH, at Springfield, Mass., on the 25th day of February, 1865, where 'the mother and daughter were visiting relatives during,that year. After marriage, they removed to Leavenworth, residing there two years, and then coming to a home on the well known Haskell homestead, adjoining Lawrence. This excellent lady united with the Congregational church in her New England home when a young girl, and has lived the life of a true Christian woman. 'For several years she belonged to the choir of the Plymouth Congregational Church, the first organized church in Lawrence. She was one of the:'pioneer teachers in the free schools of Lawrence, taking charge of a school, more as a matter of duty in the days :when good teachers were wanted, than from pecuniary motives, and those who'received the rudiments of an educat.ion in the old Unitarian church on' the hillside will long , remember the amiable, kind-hearted teacher, whose devotion to her duties laid deep the foundation of usefulness and virtue. Perhaps at that period, 'there could have been no person selected 'for such duties who was her superior in every respect, as added to her innate goodness of heart, she 'had all the elements of a studious character and a finished education, having been well educated in the best institutions of learning in New England. In all the positions of neighbor, daughter, sister and wife she fulfilled well �her part, and goes to rest with the pure in heart who pave the promise of the Everlasting Blessing, ,revered, respected, and beloved as only the good daughter, sister, wife and friend can be.. Among those who knew her, the tear will come unbidden at the news of the death of one whose life has been so blameless and so useful. The last sad rites were performed at the residence of her bereaved husband this afternoon,' at which Rev. Mr. SPRING, her last pastor, an'd Rev. Dr. CORDLEY, so long the pastor of her church, gave the last ministrations to the memory of a beloved sister. A large concourse of sympathising friends attended the funeral, the following pall-bearers officiating: Messrs. L. BULLENE, H.W. BAKER, Albert ALLEN, G. GROVENOR, O.A. HANS COMB , and S.A. RIGGS. All that remains of the good woman were laid in a pleasant lot, beside the venerated father, mother and brother, but a few steps from the door of the pioneer cabin where she and they had so long been known for their kind hospitality in the, "times that:tried men's souls," to sleep the last sleep of the good and the just. "There shall the yew her sable branches spread, And mournful cypress rear her fringed head; From thence shall thyme and myrtle send perfume, And laurel evergreen o'ershade the tomb." The deceased was a long sufferer to the insidious disease which resulted in death, being cancer of the breast. Nearly two years ago, she underwent a surgical operation, and for a time believed that the cure was permanent. Mrs. FRENCH leaves behind her a husband universally respected, and three little children-a daughter and two sons-one of them an infant, too young to have any appreciation of the loss of a mother,'to them the whole community give their sympathy for the irreparable loss. At the Quincy High School Reunion, June 1, 1882, fellow teacher Mary BOUGHTON BROOKS said of Lizzie HASKELL (Western Home Journal, June 8, 1882): "In answering to the name just called, I only need say, what every one who knew her could truthfully say, that she was kind and loving in disposition, an intelligent and conscientious teacher, a faithful and devoted wife and mother. What higher praise can be said of any?" ' "Coming to the Territory when there were comparatively few young ladies, her influence was always extended for the good of those with whom she associated." "Her first year in Kansas was spent with her father and mother, on a " farm adjoining town." "My first meeting with Miss HASKELL, was at a church social given at the residence of Miss HALL, and my impressions of her then were that she was a lady of culture and refinement, which future acquaintance fully confirmed." "As a teacher she was successful, and her refining influence has no doubt helped to mould the lives of some that are here to-day." The following was written about her in the Western Home Journal, April 5, 1877. "She was a woman of great energy of character and of unusual sweetness of disposition. Her attachments were strong, her circle of friends a wide one, and her name a synonym of benevolence and goodness wherever she was known. During the last few years she has been a great sufferer from the terrible malady that finally terminated her life, but throughout it all she has borne up with the most wonderful fortitude, furnishing a daily example to friends and neighbors of patience under suffering and of the triumph of a great spirit over the sorrows and distresses of failing phYSical life." ' , "The death of such a woman is-a public loss. She will be missed from her family, from the church, from society at large. But her memory shall be blessed. Her example shall live long in the community, and when the grass shall have become green over her grave her name shall still be held in sweet and sacred remembrance by those who loved her."

Miss Laura FITZ started out to give music lessons, but had to return home on account sickness. The old la-dy is in the best of health and is one of those wirey little women that can go to see a sick neighbor at any and all times of day or night; in fact, one that cannot be well spared in the community where she lives.

LANE. Following is her eulogy given by Mrs. Hannah FELT CLARKE at the twenty-fifth reunion of the Quincy High School, June 1, 1882. It was published in the Western Home Journal, June 8, 1882 ~ : More than twenty-two years ago I used to reach my school-room here on some of those bleak mornings, when the wind pierced to the very marrow of one's bones (as it often did in the winters of those pioneer days) to find the house blue with smoke and the stove filled with green logs of ponderous size and so watery that if Mr. DICK had been consulted as to the best mode of getting a fire, I am positive he would have ordered, as a first necessity, a thorough wringing out of the wood. But if"the chimney smoked, the north breeze came in vigorously enough about the windows to render it unnecessary to have other than such primitive modes of ventilation. On those days of gloom I sometimes crossed the hall into Mr. ADAMS room here to see if it was as dismal as 'in my own quarters, and to exchange those common place: remarks about the weather, which I suppose have been made from the time Adam so kindly furnished the apple he had not the courage to first taste; and which will continue to be made until good conversationalists shall exist more numerously than at present. It was at such times that I observed a slight flaxen-haired girl of coquettish air, who flitted about with easy grace among her school-mates, casting mischievous glances towards 'her teacher whose slightly frowning eyebrows did not deter her from her ways of girlish frolicsomeness, and I thought it was not difficult than to presume she might be "the favorite scholar." Later in the summer of that year (1860) such predictions were verified; for it was then that Ella LANE and Charles ADAMS were married, although Mrs. ADAMS continued to remain at her home. When the war commenced, her husband-who later proved himself a brave and fearless officer, eager to fight as well as to lead--Ieft her still at her father's house; and he was yet absent when she buried her first lovely little girl of but seventeen months; and again a few years later, she was bereft of still another of two years. But slight as she was physically she bore her losses with great fortitude (for she had been a loving mother) maintaining that same sprightly and,:affectionate disposition which her early gi'rihood gave promise of. ' Married at the age of sixteen, she always seemed to enjoy life and made it pleasant for those around her for the space of thirteen years afterward. At the early age of twenty-nine her life here went out; but who can doubt, but that in that world, of which we know so little and look forward to for so much, she is waiting with the same old loving tenderness which characterized her life here, to welcome those dear friends she parted with, with such heroic cheerfulness nine years ago. ", ." ...... I •• , •• ~ __ _ Daily Kansas Tribune, Lawrence, Ks., Wed., Jan. 28, 1874 DEATH OF MRS. ADAMS The melancholy tidings of the death of Mrs. Ella LANE ADAMS, wife of Col. C.W. ADAMS, briefly announced in the morning papers of yesterday, was' received with the profoundest grief by a wide cirCle of affectionate friends and admiring acquaintances. In all the relations of daughter, mother, sister, wife and ,friend she was.faithful, devoted, gentle, self sacrificing and affectionate. The fatal scourge, consumption, had fastened itself upon her and despite travel and skillful treatment dragged her on to the final catastrophe. ' �Ella, eldest daughter of Jas. H. and Mary E. LANE,was born in Lawrenceville, Indiana, in 1845, and at the early age of ten accompanied her parents to their new home in Kansas, and with them shared to a great degree the perils and privatations of pioneer life in the earliest days .. In 1861 she was united·in wedlock to Col. C.W. ADAMS and subsequently became the mother of. two children, soon to be transplanted from earth to. bloom in the garden of God. Some two years since, during the protracted revival in this city, she became interested in religious matters, made a profession of faith and joined the Methodist Episcopal church, of which she has since remained a zealous, devoted and consistent member. Hers was a religion of practice as well as precept. She was prominent in every good word, work and enter-: prise. She was an ever present and active member of the Sunday school and. was the promptest link in the "Golden Chain." The sincere sympathies of the entire community are extended to her bereaved family and mourning frierids. "There is no death! What seems so is transition, This life is mortal breath; Is but a suburb of the live elysium, Whose portal we call death. ***** In that greater cloister, stillness and seclusion, By guardian angels led, Safe from temptation, safe from sin's pollution, She lives~ whom we call dead." Flm,ERAL:-~l1e, G.er~monies attending the. funeral of Mrs. Col. ADAMS will take place at the M~thodist church at two o'clock this afternoon. Daily Kansas Tribune, Jan. 29, 1874 FUNERAL OF MRS. ADAMS The funeral obsequies of this estimable lady were very generally attended yesterday. The procession from the homestead reached the Methodist church about half past two. The church was thronged, and upon the remains entering the church an appropriate selection was sung by the choir. Rev. W.K.MARSHALL read Scripture selections, and followed in: fervent prayer that God would comfort the mourners. The choir then sang "Lips I have kissed, ye are faded and cold." .Afterward remarks were made by the Rev. J.K. DUNN and Mr. MARSHALL. The members of her class in the Sunday school were present,to the number of thirteen. The coffin was of black velvet with silver ornaments. The pall bearers were lady friends of the deceased. There was a beautiful banner hanging in front of the altar shrouded in black representing a "Golden Chain," to one end of which was attached a cross, surmounted with a crown. The other end was attached to a pillar labelled "Eternal Truth," with a Holy Bible resting on the top. The center link of the chain.was broken out and could be seen held by a shaddowy hand from among some clouds. Underneath was "Golden Chain" in large letters. After prayer by Rev. Mr. CORDLEY, the choir sung "Sister, thou wert mild and lovely." And after the remains were viewed by the. friends, they . were borne to the grave at Oak Hill cemetery where the usual ceremonies attended the interment. According to the 1874-75 Lawrence City Directory, James H. LANE lived on the southeast corner of Illinois and Henry [8th street], and C.W. ADAMS lived on the corner of Mississippi and Henry [8th street]. Submitted by Jane WIGGINS �173 THE SUNFLOWER COOK BOOK Published by The You and I Club of Lawrence, Ks, Journal Print,. no date . .

OUR BUSINESS BOOM We present our readers herewith a list of new buildings commenced , and built during the present year, together with the location of each ana the cost of construction. The cost has been in most cases estimated by : the owners, or workmen engaged upon the construction. When not obtainabfe in this way it has been estimated by the editors. As no building permits' are required, and no list of new buildings kept by the city authorities ~n this city it was an extremely difficult task to obtain the necessary dat~ for such a list and it was only obtained by the editors of the JOURNAL after spending two days in riding over the city and noting the improveme~ts. We have made as complete a list as possible but doubt not that some have i" been omitted. The total valuation foots up to the vast sum of $500,975.00. This added value alone assessed at the usual rate will.bring more than enough additional taxes into ,our city treasury to pay the city's share ": for the support of the proposed water works. These figures cannot but beI most encouraging to all our citizens, and they will all be proud of the, marvellous growth of our city, which far exceeds any it has before enjoyed, .

At this term only the new names added to the roll were called. Irene GUEST--responded to by a eulogy from Mrs. DaLEE. Helen MESSENGER--was answered for by James FAXON. Mary COLBURN (HARRINGTON) answered for by C.L. EDWARDS. Susie PEARSON, now in Oregon. Hattie GUEST (SMITH) and Mary JONES, answered for by John ROSS. Annie FULLER, (RIGGS)--said present, and the teacher proposed to make her read her first composition, which he had there, printed in her own hand, because she did not make a longer speech. Mary BROWN (WHITMAN) was present, but had been excused for a few minutes. Clara FALLEY--deceased. Lucy BURNS deceased. Mary BURNS--was next called. Alf. GUEST, absent. W.H. LAMON--said, "Please, sir, can I speak," holding up his hand. He said the teacher had forbidden him to speak without permission, and was glad to know, that now, after twenty-five years' silence he could speak. He read a new composition as follows: THE QUINCY HIGH SCHOOL REUNION. How the memory is freighted with the recollections of boyhood and girlhood days! Lawrence and vicinity is, and has been the homes of many, and yet how the old "flock" have scattered. From Nova Scotia to California, from Florida to Dakota, and from Lake Superior to the Rio Grande, at rollcall today in thought if not in word will come the answer--Present! And then the thought of the dear ones, boys and girls, who, before the battle of life was half fought, at the very threshhold of a life of promise, were claimed by the Great Conquerer for his own and calmly and peacefully laid aside the cares and toils of life. Among those numbered with the dead, are three of our instructors: S.M. THORP, our principal, ~ho fell a victim in the Quantril butchery; Miss WILDER and Miss HASKELL, two as noble women as ever lived. But Miss WILDER especially do I remember and love to think about, as the most lovable, kind-hearted, , gentle, affectionate, without a fault, and without an enemy, with a pleasant smile and a kind word for everyone. Words are too weak to express a tribute worthy of her memory. The recollections of such a woman will always remain precious, and then those old attachments and preferences, that sometimes ripened into a strong freindship, and in a few instances a mutual affection, that culminated in union for life:--of "Two souls with but a single thought Two hearts that beat as one." About the same number of boys and girls have sternly resisted all the assaults of cupid's darts and are to-day living in the enjoyment of single blessedness, but by far the larger number have become the parents of doting children, who will one day rise up to call them blessed. It may be regarded as a foolish vanity, but it is with pride that we point to the statesmen, scholars, divines, heroes, doctors, poets, legislators, whose fiery eloquence has resounded from the halls of our state and national capitols; soldiers that have given their lives for a nation's honor; such and their like have gone forth from this hall of learning a credit their to �183 Quincy High School Reunion continued instructors and an honor to the institution. Twenty-five years! What a change it has wrought. Raven locks then, are now silvered with gray--faces that were then flushed and rosy are now furrowed by labor and care. Let us all cherish the memory of those blessed school days "When all youth's hopes and promises, Those rainbows of our skies, Danced fourth in fairy visions Before our wandering eyes," with their actors and events, more and more as the years roll on, and when at last the greatest of earthly Teachers, shall, on the great reunion day call the roll from the Book of Life, may we all be there to answer present, and together be permitted to enjoy the great supper of the Lamb and spend an eternity of bliss together. Samuel LAMON--deceased. James M. ELDRIDGE--eulogy by John ROSS. David PURINTON, absent. This closed the second term. The winter term commenced in November 1857. Henry J. MUNSON and John STILL were accounted for by the teacher. Charlie BROWN--was responded to in a brief eulogy from his sister Miss Sarah BROWN. Russel WHITMAN--in respose to his name Miss BROWN read the following: OAKLAND, Cal., May 23, 1882. Here, and such a time as I have had to get in on time, 'twas only to-day I heard you were all coming together, and wanted to have everyone that could, respond to their names at roll call. I can honestly say here I am, and w~sh in my heart I might say, there I will be, to look again into the kindly faces that I know I should find among you. Today I have been recalling those long ago days and familiar faces.' I seem to see only about a dozen boys and girls of those I really knew and could call familiarly by their given names. I am pretty sure I see George, Lyman, Frank, James, Henry, John, Harry and William, the two Mary's, Alice, Lou, Clara, Miss BOUGHTON, Miss BROWN and Mr. EDWARDS. I find myself wondering what ever became of Munson and John and Mary and Martha, are they still living. Abram and Mary~ealized their school day dreams, are married and living near me in this beautiful sunset city. We may have our reunion here. How indelibly all the experiences, faces, and familiar places are impressed on the youthful mind! they can never be entirely effaced while memory lasts. I see you in the old rooms, find, my place among the seats, wander into the recitation room, where I banged young DOW over the head with my book because he bothered me one day while reciting, over twenty years ago now, and Miss BOUGHTON walked me "right away out" not to return till I apologized, which I did, and I believe she kissed me, but you needn't tell Paul BROOKS. And the place where my particular admiration sat; oh yes, some of the boys beside myself can remember that seat and the bright beautiful face that filled it, long since gone to be at rest with the blessed. Let us always remember just how it was with ourselves, while we have the guiding and sympathizing to do with our boys and girls. Ohl what doI say? Our own, yes, surely God has blessed us all and we may count treasures he has entrusted to our care, since the days when we were boys and girls together. If some one would read HOLMES' poem "The Boys," it would express my sentiments as I look in on you tonight. �184 Quincy High School Reunion continued I said, I had "such a time getting here promptly." Well, I did; you see, I may as well say it, as long as we are all friends, it was that blessed baby, came near preventing me, and if my style and manner of communi~ cation is a little mixed, you can excuse it, when you know that while my hands have been shaking yours figuratively, my feet have been, actua11y,~ rocking the cradle, to think that I should ever be called on to rock a redheaded youth of my own, is certainly very trying, the mother says it is not so, but I fear the worse. I ought not to have this job on my hands, I know, but I undertook it because I thought his grandma and nurse did not quite understand how to soothe and quiet him, so I undertook to show them, wish I hadn't, hope I may be forgiven. "Is it my first?" oh no, but some men never get over thinking that they know it all; there lies one other beautiful boy in the other room, you would see at once that as he has demanded time for his evening romp, by the time I get this other job off my hands it has made it pretty lively for me to get in on time. But all joking aside, friends of my youth, my heart goes out to you, and the old familiar scenes in Kansas. My last school days were spent in the room where you now are. In your midst I passed through fire, famine; and flood, learned my mechanical art, and was started on life's journey. To those who held a directing influence over my life then, I owe many thanks. I wish I had repaid them better then. There is one sweet spirit now departed who won all hearts to her, who I am sure has received her reward from the Master for her faithfulness and care for the souls that came within her sphere. You cannot all be as deeply touched as I am at this reuriion,for as ,I sit so far away in the quiet solitude of my chamber, in the lone watches 'of the night, on this western shore, all these memories troop before me like, the changes of a panorama, gay and sad, while your pleasure is that of personal contact, and enhanced by the magnetism of the senses. still we shall enjoy it, each in their own way. May God bless you, dear companions, and your little ones; may they be brought up in the fear and·. admoni tion of the Lord, and above all things show them the way, lead them in paths of righteousness, that they may be brought into the way of heavenly blessings as you have. I send you greeting. Yours Truly, RUSSELL WHITMAN. John DONNELLY was answered for by the following letter, also read by Miss BROWN: C.L. EDWARDS, Lawrence, Kansas: MY DEAR SIR:--It is with great pride that I am enabled to acknowledge the receipt of your very kind note to attend the reunion of those who were students at school in Lawrence during the time intervening between the years 1857 and 1863. All and the only education it has been my good fortune to receive, was gained when I was comparatively at manhood. Please believe me, sir, when I say that my heart and sympathy in the cause of education is ever with you. I am your friend, JOHN DONNELLY. Edward BELLOWS (son of Rev. Dr. BELLOWS in New York), died in Texas. James P. WOOD, deceased. Levi B. ANDERSON was responded to by W.H. LAMON, with the following eulogy: �185 Quincy High School Reunion continued "L.B. ANDERSON was one of our oldest scholars. His early education had been much neglected, but he was a ready learner and made study his business, and was soon the foremost in his class, which position he easily held. He was a bright thinker and ready writer. His was a kindly disposition; always ready and willing to help his classmates in their studies. Little is known of his after life only that he emigrated to the Golden State, where he died." Arthur LORING, answered for by James FAXON. Wm. MOYES, was eulogized by W.H. LAMON as follows: Wm. MOYES was a native of England. His parents immigrated to America when he was a child, and located in Illinois. He came to Kansas in 1857. At the beginning of the war, he enlisted in capt. SWIFT's Company, Kansas First Regiment, and was wounded in the memorable battle of Wilson's Creek. Returned to his regiment the following spring, and with it went to Tennessee, but was soon afterwards honorably discharged. In 1863 he went to Colorado for the benefit of his health and was in Denver at the time of QUANTRIL's raid. Died Nov. 5, 1869, aged thirty years. He had been sick a few days of pneumonia, but the real cause of his death was his old wound through the body received while in the army. Osbun SHANNON--absent. Frankie MILLER, (FARNSWORTH)--answered for by H.T. ROSS. Mary GRIFFITH, (WHITCOMB)--was reported by Mrs. Dr. PRENTISS. Louisa PRENTISS (SIMPSON)--present. Dacy RICHARDS--reported deceased. Darlisca RICHARDS (PENCHARD)--present. Clara OLDHAM (KNOX)--answered for by James FAXON. Aurelia ALFORD--answered for by the teacher. Kate DINSMOOR--reported by her brother Frank DINSMOOR. She was burned to death by a prairie fire. Will BULLENE, answered present. Neill DONNELLY, absent. John O. DUNCAN reported in Black Hills. Geo. GOSS, reported in Osage county. Wm. MARTIN, was reported by James FAXON, who read the following let~er: Colorado City, Tex., May 26, 1882 Mr. C.L. EDWARDS, Miss S.A. BROWN and others, Lawrence, Kansas. Greeting:--Since the sterner duties of life deny to me the pleasure 'of being with you at the time indicated in the notice of reunion. I shall venture to avail myself of the only method left me, to extend you my best wishes for the success of the reunion of our old school. When I saw your invitation; so kindly sent me, there came welling up into my heart and mind a thousand memories of the times and scenes of long ago, and now whilst I try to exte:nd to you my heartfelt greeting on this your quarter-centennial anniversary there passes in review before my mind's eye the humble little town of Lawrence, as it appeared in 1855, a mere speck as it were, on "civi1ization's utmost: verge," struggling for a respectable position among the towns and cities then springing up into notice along the banks of the great tributary of the West. Associated with you as teacher and pupil, under your guidance I first felt the inspirations of manhood, and it was during the years that I had the benefit of your tutelage, that I first began to put into definite shape the teachings with which you so carefully loaded my boyish mind. When I look back through the retrospect of past events and see my comrades and friends as �186 Quincy High School Reunion continued we then stood gathered within the kindly sound of your voices, methinks I live again in the past. But when I reflect upon the proud position to which your city, and justly in part to your efforts have attained: remembering too, the troublous times the bad men and measures we have lived through,. I concluded that it is by far better that it is as we now find it, letting the dead past bury its dead, uniting our efforts with them who are left, in building up the waste places. For one I shall always point with pride and sincere respect to my old school room and remember with feelings, akin to veneration those who first tried to teach me there. The name of Lawrence, and my old associates, will be dear to me as long as life remains. Again, wishing for you all the success you so richly deserve I remain, Very Respectfully, WM. MARTIN. Geo. H. PERRY, deceased. Ernest and Henry SOLOMON,--answered for by W.L. BULLENE. Frank DINSMOOR said he belonged to the infant class of the old school, and could remember but little of it. He did remember of the teacher coming into the primary department and whipping a scholar one day, and it was well done. Mr. EDWARDS said that on account of DINSMOOR's age he should have to forgive him for his error, but said that in all his teaching in Kansas he never struck a scholar a blow--Miss BROWN did the whipping on that occasion, and his recollection was that she did it well. LAMON said if the teacher did not whip, he knew how to pull hair. Mary SPEER (NEFF), Fanny ROSS (BANGS), and Mary SUTHERLAND (PICKETT), responded to their names. Sybil A. DUNCAN (RAY),--absent Anna DINSMOOR,- deceased. Flora HUTCHINSON--responded to by Mrs. George BANKS, who read the f9 l lowing letter: I Washington, D.C. 922 O. St., N.W., May 26, '82. C.L. EDWARDS: Dear Friend:--I feel impelled to write and tell you how deeply I regret not being able to be present, and to assure you that in spirit I shall surely be with you all. I envy the birds their wings that I might soar away and, away, until I should be among you. Since your invitation came, I have scarcely been able to control my , thought, they have been crowded so full of olden memories, and I have lived over again, many of the happy days gone by, when our greatest sorrow was having to submit to the higher powers, a cross though light, very far from gracefully borne, heavy it looked to us then, and all that mortal could be~r, but could the veil which hid the future, suddenly have been lifted, would not some of our hearts have been broken? "Wisely for us, behind the sable' veil ot" night, God hides the future." So you are to meet in the old school room. How plainly I can see it now, and I .think I could seat nearly every pupil, and I shall never forget· how proud I felt when I became one of the number to take a "front seat." There is a kind of sacred feeling in my heart for the old room and its associations, and though my children will never gaze upon the spot, I shal~ take one more look at it myself when I visit Lawrence this fall. By the way, considering what I am, not a Jumbo exactly, but fully as great a curiosity in my way i.e. an "old maid," I almost wonder you did not wait until I �187 Quincy High School Reunion continued came, and how I wish you had! Your invitation asks those who cannot be present to write something for the occasion, but I, for one, feel as though such things would be somewhat tiresome, unless someone had the gift of pen picturing which I have not, so I have asked a friend to take a bouquet in my name, and let the flowers speak for me. . Though I trust the reunion will be one of pleasure to all still a feeling of sadness will creep through my mind when thoughts of those who have crossed the river come to you, as come they will, for "there is no flock however watched and tended, but one dead lamb is there," and out of our flock several have been taken. But this is no time for tears, and they will come i f I think in that direction much longer. Please write soon and tell me all about the merry making. I shall be so anxious to hear. I hope they may be as boys and girls together again, for a few short hours, throwing aside care and trouble and forgetting the years that have intervened. Ruth COLLIER, (JONES) present. Frances COLLIER, (WATT) present. Eben CROCKER, present. Osgood A. COLEMAN, was answered for by John ROSS. Lucy PATTERSON (CLARK) present. Hattie ANDERSON, (ELLIOT) present. Kate BULLENE, (GAY) was answered by W.L. BULLENE. SPRING TERM, 1868. [1858] Mrs. Sarah A. SMITH was answered for by the teacher Clara ARCHIBALD was responded to by Miss BROWN who read the following letter. Dear Mr. EDWARDS: Your invitation to attend the quarter-centennial reunion and picnic of the teachers and scholars of the Lawrence schools to be held in the school- . room of the Unitarian church on the 1st of June is received, and there is nothing I would like so much as to be with you and meet my teachers and I the scholars with whom I was so pleasantly associated in the old school days, but it is impossible and in compliance with request I send a letter. You ask for "reminiscences." It was in the spring of 1859, I think, when I first entered your school. One of my earliest and most pleasant remembrances is hearing the big boys speak their "pieces" at the Friday afternoon rhetorical exerci~es. The exercises of one Friday afternoon I especially lingers in my memory, perhaps because I was more than usually, pleased with at least two of the recitations. The speakers were John ROSS and a boy we called Dudley HASKELL. The latter declaimed Spartacus' speech to the Gladiators. We youngsters, on the front seats, little thought then that we were listening to the future member of Congress, who so ably and honorably represents our state in Washington, and of whom Kansas, and especially his own people of Lawrence, are so deservedly proud. I forget what was the subject of John ROSS declamation, but him I remember very well, also another of the "big boys" whose name is on the printed invitation, "will LAMON." Whether Mr. ROSS or Mr. LAMON have acquired titles, in all these years, and ought to be dignified with a prefix of Hon., Judge or Colonel to their names, I do not know. I have' forgotten whether "Jimmie FAXON" attended your school or not, but I know I �r - 188, _ _ __I ~ Quincy High School Reunion continued that he as well as myself, were members of Mr. THORP's school. The name of this excellent and well beloved teacher calls up one of the very saddest, memories that the troublous times of. Kansas afford, as well as that of his first assistant teacher, Mrs. CARPENTER, who~e husband was also murderedlby QUANTRELL on that never-to-be-forgotten" August day. And so the memories 'are not all pleasant. The roll call will not be responded to by many who were with us in those old days. Miss Lucy WILDER, your chief assistant is another wbose presence among you will be missed. I remember her better than any of the other teachers who were connected with you in the management of the schools, for I was in her classes. I used to be just a little bit afraid of you, Mr. EDWARDS, though I should not be now, I'm sure. You ask that names be reported to you so that the roll may be complete. My brothers, F.W. and C.P. ARCHIBALD, attended school in the old church during the years mentioned. They were neither of them in your department in those early days, but were with Mrs. SUTLIFF, Miss HOLLISTER, I think {ler name was then. I do sincerely wish that I could be present at your reunion and ban~ quet, but as this is not possible, I send these few thoughts with my "counterfeit presentment" to represent me. Though I have been absent from Kansas and Lawrence so long, I have not forgotten nor lost my affection for the place or the people, and am proud and happy to consider myself one of you still. with the most hearty good will to all present, and kind regards to those who remember me, I am, yours, very truly, CLARA M. ARCHIBALD. Augusta LONGFELLOW (DUNN) was answered for by her brother. Lizzie COLTON (WRIGHT) was responded to by Mrs. A. MARKS, who read the following letter: Suffield, Conn., May 29, 1882. Mr. C.L. EDWARDS. Dear Sir:--I have just received from my sister, Mrs. J.G. SEEWIR, a , note wishing me to attend the reunion of teachers and pupils, to be held in your city, June 1st. I regret exceedingly that it will be impossible for me to be present, but rest assured, in spirit I shall be with you. I attended school in Lawrence from the spring of 1858 to that of 1872, under the teachings of yourself, Miss Lucy WILDER, Miss HOLLISTER (now Mrs. SUTLIFF I believe) Miss Lizzie HASKELL, Miss BARBER, Mr. Charles and Mr. Frank ADAMS and Mr. THORPE. How often have I wished during the latter ,. years when thinking of old times, that I was once again a child in the old school-room under the church; although during school life we have our little trials. I used to think so, especially when I was delinquent in bringing in my composition sometimes, and you would send me home to write it. I remember one Monday morning Lou PRENTISS and I both came without one and you asked our reasons for so doing; after hearing them you reminded us of the rule in regard to such disobedience. We took our hats and writing materials and went up on Mount Oread in the basement of the present university. I have forgotten about the compositions but I know we spent a most delightful morning. In the winter when there was snow enough, how we did enjoy sliding down Mount Oread. Memory often goes back to those old days and I seem to see before me the well remembered faces of Josie, Allie and Emma ELDRIDGE, Mollie and Emma JENKINS, Mary ANDERSON, Annie FULLER, Emma and Nellie ENOS, Susie FAXON, Martha and Will LAMON, Jimmie FAXON, JOhn and Henry ROSS, Lyman PRENTISS and many, -many others. But I fear I am occupying too much'of your time. wi th a' .kindly. and affectionate greeting to all present and dropping a tear for those who have passed to the other shore, I remain your old pupil, MRS. M. LIZZIE COLTON (WRIGHT). Annie MILLER,:; answered to her own name. ____ (T9~e~~n..!=~nl!.ed __ -=_S_ubmi~!.~d by Jane WIGGINS, Lawrence, Ks.) I __ _ _ _ _ -L...- �l"lS9!

She died at her residence, 1433 Tennessee ,street on December 30,1926,"at the age of 89. Tpe following article was found in a scrapbook, of obituaries taken"from the newspapers, called "Lawrence Necrology" at the Lawrence Publi~\ Library. No newspaper name nor date were g1ven. . \ Mrs. Paul R. BROOKS Mrs. BROOKS, before her marriage was ~iss Mary Angeline BOUGHTON •. She was born June I 13, 1837, in Cayuga county, N.Y., the daughterlof of the Rev. Alanson BOUGHTON, a Baptist minister, and Mrs. Hannah SQUIRES BOUGHTON. ' Miss BOUGHTON came to Kansas in 1847 [1857] wi.th··a:.married .sister~ 'The'sister and ·:her~·!.family soon returned to their old home. Not so t~e stout-hearted pioneer, Mary BOUGHTON. She' stayed and soon was teaching in the early school in the basement of the old Unitarian church!. The year after her arrival in Lawrence on October 3, 1858, she was marrie;d to Paul R. BROOKS. The wedding was one of great interest and has often been; described. It was the first church wedding in Lawrence and took place at; the old Methodist church at 724 Vermont street. ~ Mr. BROOKS came to Lawrence in 1854 and took a prominent part in all! the affairs of the new town. He continued almost to the end of his days active in official and business life. He died December 17, 1916. i From the time of their marriage until Mr. BROOKS' death, Mr. and Mrs~ BROOKS were leaders in the civic and social life of Lawrence. Their home~ at first the small house of the pioneers, soon, in the '60s, their. spacious I and beautiful home on the slope of Mt. Oread, was one of the centres of i generous, joyous hospitality. Mr. and Mrs. BROOKS had no children of the~r own but they loved the young. A younger sister of Mrs. BROOKS almost as ! soon as the University opened and a nephew of Mr. BROOKS, a few years late~r, were sent for from other states to make their home with them, and to be , educated to splendid manhood and womanhood in the University. This sister and nephew both delight· to give to those dear relatives the credit for all: they have attained through their university education. : . Mr. ·. and Mrs .. BROOKS also opened their home, when commodious homes wer~ fewer than now, to University student roomers. Music and books, good company and good cheer, and the warm friendliness of their host and hostess made life-long friendships between hosts and guests. In recent years Mrs. BROOKS has enjoyed cordial relations with the fraternity, Beta Theta Pi, whose house was the home of her old neighbors, Judge John P. USHER and family, and invitations from the Betas and roses from Mrs. BROOKS frequently passed forth between the two. Mrs. BROOKS was large-hearted, a woman of broad'interests, one who made many friends and kept them through life, one whose membership was sought in all kinds of organizations. She lived full of activities to the, \ �',191 end. She kept up her large house and her extensive greenhouses, living among the flowers she loved, selling them and distributing them lavishiy' as gifts. , On the morning of December 30, 1926, having gone to bed in her usuat health the night before, she was found peacefully sleeping the last sleep. There was 'no indication that her passing had been attended by the slight~st agitation. Thus another book of ' the homes of Lawrence was closed. The house will pass to stranger, but for the life lived in it, the life of Lawrence will always be better and happier. Following is more information taken from her obituary in the Lawrence Daily Journal-World, December 30, 1926: : Although Mr. and Mrs. BROOKS were absent from town at the time of the Quantrill raid,' their material possessions suffered. Coming':to Lawrence: with. the free state men in 1854 as a lad of twenty, Mr. BROOKS was devoted I wholeheartedly to the free state cause and was marked for slaughter by I the pro-slavery forces. His house in Lawrence was the first to which th~ torch was applied. His store was burned in the first raid on Lawrence in 1856. The location of Mr. BROOKS' store is marked by a stone placed near the office of the Underwood company on north Massachusetts st. The stor~ was an open log cabin. At the time Territorial Governor 'Robert J. WALKER marched against Lawrence with 1,500 troops, Mr. BROOKS was a member of the city council. : The troops were camped west of town for several weeks. The free state council defied the governor and his forces and continued its program which had aroused antagonism. Since the death of Mr. BROOKS, Mrs. BROOKS had continued the busine~s of her greenhouse and had retained her vigor and her interest in all affairs in a remarkable way. The funeral of Mrs. BROOKS wilL be held at the home at' 2 0' clock Friday afternoon. Dr. John F.WATTS will have charge of the services.

WILLIAM BROWN Jane SHIELDS was born at Banbridge, county Down, Ireland, March 1, 1840. She was the daughter of James SHIELDS and Mary BARR SHIELDS. The l SHIELDS came to Wisconsin and settled at Sharon, where Jane SHIELDS was: married to William BROWN, January 8, 1859. The young. couple came at onc~ to Kansas and settled in Douglas county. Here Mrs. BROWN passed through' . all the experiences of the pioneer women, hard work, privation, isolatio~ and peril. Mr.·BROWN was engaged in dairying near Lawrence. In the 60's the , BROWNS bought the beautiful farm southwest of the University, where they: both spent their remaining years. On this farm, Mr. BROWN built and I operated the first grist mill in this part of the country to be run by steam. : In Quantrill's raid the retreat of the raiders led them past Pleasant View farm. Mr. BROWN set out to join whatever defensive organization mikht be found .. Mrs. BROWN hid with her children in a cornfield. Two differeht . I squads of the ruffians stopped and set fire to the house. Both times Mrs • . BROWN 'left her hiding and put out the fire, in spite of threats of death' if she did so. Then came three raiders dragging a colored man and dis_I cussing how they shou~d kill him. Mrs. BROWN seized an old, useless revolver and threatened to shoot the first ruffian who should lay hands on the negro. And she effected his escape. : Mrs. BROWN was a woman of strong character, generous, and courageou$ as her actions at the time of the raid showed. She stood for the best I things in life. She was devoted to home and church and had a warm heart! and a helping hand for all her neighbors and friends. She was a true ty~e of the pioneer, brave,resourceful, lavish in giving of her strength and i her store. Her life closed March 4, 1927. On the following Sunday scores of friends from town and country gathered at her beautiful home place, Pleasant View Farm,topayher the last tribute of respect and. love. Mr. BROWN died November 10, 1918. Mrs. BROWN lost out of ' her home by death a beloved daughter, Emma A. BROWN,' less than a year before her own death. Her surviving children are: Thomas R. BROWN, Elmer F. BROWN,W~llard BROWN, all living at Lawrence. Taken from "Lawrence Necrology",·a scrapbook of obituaries at the Lawrence I Public Library; no newspaper name nor date were given.
