BIOGRAPHICAL.
"reminiscences of The Reeder
Family OF Mingo Township.

The first settlers Of Mingo town.
ship were the Reeders, from Mythe
county. Virginia. Austin, born in
1872, Joseph, born in 1874, Eliza
beth, born in 1916. Austin married
Nancy Shough, in Tenn. He and
his wife with his brothers and mother
came to Missouri and settled in what
is now Mingo, in rS4o, took claims
IN sections ao, 80 and 81, the mother
lived only about three years. JOS
eph married Rhoda Sears, native
OF Ind, who with her fathers family
was among the early settlers of
Grand River township. Elizabeth
married r. ]. Davis, and moved to
Andrew county. Mo. about IS46.
The Reeders met with only about
the same experience OF all the pion-
GERS. Upon Uncle Zoe Reeder's
beirg asked If they had any remark
able or unusual experience to relate,
he replied yes sir. We raised ten
children and niece, and had good
luck with them all.
They carded and spun their first
wool and continued to raise. card
and spin cotton, but after the first
year. got their wool carded IN Lex
ington. and elsewhere. During Oct.
and Nov. they used to lay in a stock
of deer's hams. which, when dried,
made the best meat in the world for
spring eating.
Timber has grown very rapidly
since they came there. What was
but very low bushes is now very
good fencing timber. Twenty-nine
wears ago Mrs. Jos. Reeder, went to
the field to take her husband drink
| and brought back a cotton wood
sprout and set it out near the house,
it now only lacks three inches of be-
ing eight feet i'll circumference, five
feet above the ground. There was
no village in the township. The,
used to go to Lexington twice year
to trade, there was no other early
settlers OF Mingo, that remained.
Soon after the Reeders came the
Whites, the Haynes, the Brittons,
but they were floating class of fpeo-
pie and soon drifted out and later
| more substantial class took their
places.
The Reeder's suffered nothing
from the border troubles of 1856. to
1888. When the civil war came or
they believed in the Douglass doc.
trine, that the people OF each state
should vote slavery sin or OUT a,
they pleased and favored q nnainte
ance of the Union. upon that basis

Keep Your Courage.

A newspaper once contained an adj
vertisement for a man to fill certain
position, which concluded with, "No
discouraged man need apply" There
was deep worldly wisdom in this, for
Encouragement is terrible drawback
in fighting life's battle. The discour-
aged man is defeated in advance. He
carries. failure about with him he
halts where he ought to hurry forward;
he cannot stand up under the strain
and burden of the race. 1t is hard that
it should be so-harder still that so
little real sympathy is felt for dscour-
agement. The world does not need
such a man, and has little mercy for
him ; and SO he falls into the ranks of
the unsuccessful, while he of high hope,
who is yet new in the struggle, who has
not supped the bitter cup of disappoint-
ment and found out that all is vanity
and vexation, strides before him and is
accepted where the much-tried man
fails. There is something contagious
in buoyant, happy, energetic spirit,
which carries those who come in con-
tact with it away, and success is as
often the result of this strong animal
force as Of perseverance and continued
effort. All the experience in the werld
will not carry the man of deep discour-
agement successfully through an enter
prise.
