he passed from earth The history of this
man is recalled by the application recently
made to yacate the townsite OF Sumner. in
AtchisOp County.
Butsomething else is recalled about Sum-
ner by the application for the vacation OF
the TOWNSHIP. In 1858 the town was the
most important in the Territory OF Kansas.

men who came from Leayenworth aud
started free-State town in opposition to
Atchison, which was pTo-slayery town.

and the town started with boom" This
was in 1857, and the acme Of greatness was
reached one year later. Then began the
decline.
In 1853 Sumner was a growing, prosper
