Death of Col. Clark w. Thompson.

Col Clark w. Thompson died at Wells,
Faribault county, Mimi. The death OF Col.
Thompson has awakened deep feeling OF
regret in the southern portion OF Minnesota,
as well as with his friends and acquaintances
elsewhere There is perhaps, no single indi-
vidual living south of St. Paul who has been
SO intimately connected with the growth
OF the southern portion Of Minnesota as he.
And the people along the line of the South
ern Minnesota railroad feel that in his
death they have lost a friend and benefac-
tor Though suddenly and violently strick-
en- down in the midst Of his nsighbora and
friends, and at time when he had the
least occasion to aprrehend danger OF this
kind his mind was clear, his faith unclouoed,
and he looked forth into the great future
with an unfaltering trust. To the mo-.
ment OF his death he was calm and serene;
he did not murmur or complain; nor did
he suffer his worldly affairs to irritate or
perpisx him. He knew we'll that the end
was nigh, and ne waited like a hero for the
hour OF his departure to come. He was
buried with appropriate ceremonies at La
Crosse, a very large number OF friends
being in attendance.
The sun. [volume] (Morris, Stevens County, Minn.) 1882-1895, 1885-10-22

the bounds OF law AID JUS
tice, should be extended to protect
the settlers. There are about two hundred
Irish farmers around Graceville in whose
welfare Bishop Ireland is interested. Beside
these, there are said to be overa thousand
settlers along the road in the same plight.
Their lands are held under II contract from
the st. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba rall'
road. The indemnity decision puts the
right of the road to these lands in doubt.
The law clerks in the land office, however,
found provision OF the law passed
Jan. 13, 1881, of which Gen. Sparks
was unaware, that covers the case
not only OF settlers in Minnesota,
but on all similar grants throughou
the United States. 1t is so precisely to
the point that it will afford relief to thou
sands OF bona fide settlers who have been
worrying over their titles. ltisas follows:
United States statute at large, volume
81, page 81. BE it enacted, etc.:
That all persons who shall have
settled and made valuable and per-
manent improvements upon any odd-num-
bered section of land within any railroad
withdraw in good faith, and with the per-
mission or license OF the railroad company
for whose benefit the same shall have been
made and in the expectation OF purchasing
OF such company the land so settled upon,
which land is so settled and improved, may
for any cause be restored to the public
domain, and who at the time OF such res
toration may not be entitled to enter and
acquire title to such lands under the pre-
emption homestead or timber culture acts,
shall be permitted at any time within three
months after such restoration, and under
such rules and regulations as the commits
sioner of the general land office may pre-
scribe, to purchase not to exceed 16O acres
in extent OF the same by legal subdivision
at the price OF 81. so per acre and to receive
patents therefor.
