BRIGHAM YOUNG.
His First Marriage and the First Settle
ment of MormOns I'm Ohio.
women.

His First Horrtage ana the First Scttke-
ment of MormOns I'm Ohio.
Learning that there were in the Of
flee of the probate Judge of Geauga
County some interesting facts to, be OBJ
tanned in regard to the early life of
Brigham Young. the great Mormon,
your correspondent paid that office a
visit, and by the courtesy of Judge
Smith was enabled to obtain the fol-
lowing facts, never before published.
1t will be remembered that the little
town of Kirkland, at that time a part
of Geauga County, was the ''first gath
erin@ place of the Mormons. Brig
ham Young was one of the earliest of
them to come to- Kirkland. and soon
after coming to the place he met and
soon married Miss Mary Ann Angel.
This was his first and legal marriage.
In the old records of the probate court
may be still seen the original applics-
ton of Brigham for the necessary Ii
cense for this marriage and the certiti-
cate of the marriage by Sidney Rig
don, another prominent Mormon. The
copies of the application for license
and the certificate of marriage are as
follows:
.-Ihe state of Ohio, Geaugs County. ss.:
PERSONALLY appeared Brigham Young and
made application for q marriage license for
shp Of k aha in sasd CUNT and
solemn oath that he, the said Brigham
is sas . s
eighteen years; that they are both single.
h ha t mo of no legal impedimens against
their being joined In rnarriage, -
Sworn and subscribed this 10Th day OF

thousand tho eight hundred and thirty our.
county of Geauga, were legally joined in
marriage By competent authority, in con-
State 20 81 oho in sash cases made and
| provided. and certificate of the said mar
rso soiemnized the same. has been f1ed in
| the office of the clerk of the court Of COM
t hGn , Reas day Of s Apr Hnno Domini one
| Attest: D. D, AIKEN. Clerk"
The signature Of Brigham Young to
the application above is fac-simile OF
the original signature ON the record.
1t will be noticed as an evidence OF
Brigham's illiteracy that he spells his
last name with q small or lower-caSe
:y" How such a man could obtain
such control over the people as he die
can only be explained upon the hypo
thesis that they were either very igno
rant or very vicious, and his great per
sonal magnetism and insight into HUI
man nature and faculty of adapting
himself to the different natures
showed them he was q born leader.
There still live in Kirkland and il
MunSon, in this county, nephews o
Mary Ann Angel, and they confirm al
the foregoing statements. There il
still living in Kirkland a small band o
Mormons who can not swallow th'
poly gamous portion of the religion
They still hold meetings occasionall,
in the old Mormon temple in that place
, and crowds of curious people conn
. from the neighborings towns to SO
their proceedings. s. Ch0rdoss { o. Cor

THE

Reports from Elk Point to-day are to
the effect that the water is slowly going
down and the supposition il that the
gorge has broken, and that immediate
relief is in store for the deluged section
of country. A train load of ties left
Elk Point this morning for the scene of
the destroyed road bed, and q force OF
workmen will begin at once repairing
the damages. Thos. Dickson came
down to Yankton from Bon Homma last
night, reporting that when he left
that point, the river was fnll of running
ice, the water very high and still rising,
but the ice has not appear ed in the river
at this point yet, althoughjas we.go to
press the river is on the upward Move
and there is "a possibility
that the ice will be thick insthesmorning.
From points above Springfield nothing
has been heard to-day, but 1t is calcu-
lated that the gorge that was reported
from Fort Randall has broken and the
ice is moving down stream.
The ice from Bon Homme has had
sufficient time in which to reach us, and
there is a possibility of q gorge between
here and that point, but there is nc
news to that effect.

springfield Politics,

pSSh3
Springfield, Oak, March 23-Spring-
field experienced one OF the liv eliest po-
litical times to-day at the city caucus it
ever had in Its. renowned political his
tory. The city caucus was called at 2
p. m. for the purpose of nominating Off.
cials for the ensuing year.
1t seems that the old ring (as they
are called) has run the city ever since
the organization Of the city government
of Springfield, and have had things
pretty much their own way and as
claimed by the opposite party, they
have raised their own salaries and made
other appropriations that did not meet
with the views of half the people. The
caucus was held at the Mead house
hotel Office and each party was well rep
r~esented-all the voting population was
present for either one side or the other,
which was very nearly a tie-only being
three votes in favor of the royalists or
old ring. The officers nominated are as
follows:
J. Fl. Stephens, mayor.
A, 7. Bridgman, clerk.
j. @. Klemme, Mr.. Butte, aldermen of
LIST ward.
v. r. VanCuren, alderman End ward.
j. ". Jewell, justice,
George. W. Snow, treasurer.
r. Groot, member school board.
The defeated party not being satisfied
with the results of the caucus mot get
ing one of their men in held q little
caucus of their own and nominated an
other ticket. The two parties being SO
nearly tied the prospect ID fair for lively
times on the 9Th of April, cleo
ton day. Heretofore the city
election has passed off very
quietly, hardly beng able to get enough
votes out to make the tally sheets look
respectable; but this election will be
hot, with prospects of a raise in the price
| of votes. SANTEE.
