victory of Tuesday.
On last Thursday terrible and fatal
accident happened at Pfcff's farm a
few miles over the Minnesota line in
Iowa, not far from, Round Lake. A
company had gathered to an auction.
About two O'Clock in the afternoon,
a young man named Hall. son of J. D.
Hall, in company with another young
man. started on horseback to field to
gather some cattle up to the sale, GAL
Looping at full sped, when Hall was
thrown heavily to the earth by the sud
den shying off OF his horse, falling
against the base of a willow tree. He
was injured internally so badly that lie
died about eight O'Clock in the evening.
He was unconscious from the moment
Of his fall until his death. His father
and mother live near the place of the
accident. His father was absent from
home at the time. :.

house in Currle. That was the fall Of
II, or before there was u town here.
There was no house at Heron Lake
and We two, unloaded the first car
Of merchant lumber, set up some boards
for u shelter, ate cold supper from our
grub box, pulled some dead grass for
bed and laid down and shivered tOgeth-
er all night, ate frozen breakfast in the
morning and each started on his own
way 10 help conquer the vast wilder
ness, which then lay trackless and
houseless all about us. There was not
a house between the two points, thirty
miles, and a trip alone across the track
less prairie, through the rain and snow
with heavy load was no enviable job
and not easily forgotten. and when We
meet one of the buys of those days we
take more than friendly interest in
him.
