He was Edward z. G. Judson, of the great
Christian missionary family of that name.
His father was a Philadelphia lawyer, in
which quiet city this restless spirit was born.
His father intended him for legal light, but
the youngstcr ran away to sea in a ship going
around the Horn. On his return home his
father endcavored to show him the career
that the study of Blackstone might bring him.
But without avail then, making a virtue Of
the necessity, his father appointed his way
ward boy to the United States ship Mace
DOMAIN, obtaining for him midshipman's
position. His llow-midshipmen, in their
youthful wouldbe arstocracy, refused to
associate or mess with him on the ground that
he had served as a common sailor and was
not their equal He certainly was not, for he
proved himself very soon their superior, chal-
longing them all to fight, one after the other,
and coming Off victorious III each contest.
One of his antagonists is now an admiral in
the navy. After that there was no more talk
about equality. While serving in the navy he
rescued the crew of boat which had been
run down by ferryboat in New York har-
Dor. But it was on land, not on sea, that
young Judsons most adventurous period was
passed. As an Indian fighter and as a scout
in the great civil war lie became justly
famous. On the plains he met with Capt.
Jack Crawford, who regards Ned Buntline as
the bravcst man he has ever met, while as to
his craftsmanship there can be no dispute.
On shipboard he broke small bottle sus-
pended from the yard arm with one shot and
cut the cord that had held the bottle with the
shot following, and years after in a trial Of
skill with Buffalo Bill, Texas Jack and several
Indian chiefs he took the first prize for
quick, sure aim. His adventures among the
Indians would fill volumes. He was great
admirer of the Indian character though he
took no stock in "Cooper's Indians" us hs
called them.
Ned kept himself constantly before the
public in some sensational way. He was
leader in the Know Nothing movement Was
arrested as one of the principals in the For
rest MaoTeady Astor place riots in New
fork. He was tried before Judge Charles P.
DAILY, whom Ned had been attacking for
years. The judge magnanimously gave him
but one year in the penitentiary. He had al
ready begun to fire the youthful heart with
his MunchauSen tales, and this he continued to
his death. No one can estimate the number
of stories he wrote. His income from this
source averaged $4,000 year. During the
war he was arrested and confined in Fort
Lafayette for overstaying his parole. He
had tried nearly everything in his time
and it was to be expected be would
try the stage. This he did, in company with
Buffalo Bill, for whom he wrote a play.
Their first appearance was in St. Louis, and
as it was new business for them, both became
stage struck. Buffalo Bill forgot his part
Ned became bogged, and the play ended in a
roaring farce.
OF late years Buntline was living on his
farm at Stamford, n, Y, where he leaves his
fourth wife and family. He was a model
of muscular vigor, as his picture indicates, up
to the day of his death
