DEATH OF PIONEER. We regret TO
learn that Eli S. Rarnum, Esq, died in
East Clcvp land on the 22d iis;. He
was one Of the first two settlers Of Flur-
ence township, Erie county. He WIS
born in Daubury, Conn, on the 9th of
March, 1888, and arrived in Florencs
July 10th, 1909, where he continued To
reside until about six years since, when,
he removed TO East Cleveland. His was
the first death that ever occurred 10 tho
family, he leaving his aged companion
and SIX children to mourn his loss. The
deceased always occupied a prominent
aud useful position in community, lndl
served his neighbors most hcceptably in
various public oliicos. Few, indeed, of
the pioneers OF Northern Ohio hUve been
spared to witness as great changes 10 tho

Thursday Night.


Late on Thursday night in company
with Lieutenant Colonel Marshall, we
visited the building occupied nv the doom
ed Indians. They were quartered on the
ground aoor of the three-story stone
building erected by the late Gen. L cch.
They were all fastened to the floor
with chains, two by two. Some were
sitting up, smoking and conversing, while
others werr reclining, covered with blan-
kets, and apparently asleep. The three
half breeds aud one or two others only
were dressed in citizens clothes. The
rest wore the breecl-cloul, leggins and
blankets, and not few were adorned
with paint. The majority are young mHn,
though several are quite old and gray
headed, ranging, perhaps, towards seVen-
ly. One is quite youth not over six
teen.
They all appeared cheerful and con-
tent d, and seemed scarcely to reflect on
the certain doom which awaited lhem. -
AS we guzed on them, the recollection OF
how short time since they have been
engaged in the diabolcsl work of muir
dering indiscriminutly bothold and young,
sparing neither sex nor condition, sent a
thrill of horror through our veins. Now
they are perfectly harmless, and look as
innocent as children. They smile at
your entrance, aud hold ous their hands
10 be shaken, which yet appear to be GO
ry with the blood OF babes.
