The Neillsville True Republican, of
Sept. 18th, contained the following
notice Of Gen. \. C. Dodge: The
lecture by the Hon. A. C Dodge, at the
Presbyterian church Friday night, was
listened to by fair and highly appre-
ciative audience, and was pronounced
by all present to be an interesting and
exceedingly instructive discourse. By
a singular chance the evening selected
was the first dry one we had had for q
week. The lecture was narrative OF
the remote times before the Territory
: of Wisconsin had been organized
when it was as a vast wilderness in
cluded as part of Michigan, and later
when Burlington was the capitol of
Wisconsin, us the new territory was
then spelled. He told how the lead
mines first attracted settlers to the re.
! glon near Galena, just as in later years
. gold attracted settlers to California
For years during Wisconsin's earliest

gage in agriculture, and settlers, all
lead miners, believed corn could not be
raised here. A considerable portion
of the lecture was given, to the delight
OF the audience, to the subject OF
the early Indian wars, the details OF
which by an eyewitness were perhaps
the most interesting part of the dis
course. The horrible tale of the Sac.
who drank the warm blood of theil
white victims, was listened to with in.
tense interest. The receipts at the
door were Sl9.75, and the net about S1s
