More About That kidnapping Case,

In the last issue of the Marienville Err
press is an article headed "Bov Kid
Mapped" which is rather startling title.
saying in substance that on "wednesday
afternoon, oath, inst, the town was
thrown into great state of excitement
through town at a furious rate, having
with them young boy, who was scream
ing at the top ofhis voice, while the wo-
man was trying to hold her hand over
his mouth. The woman and liveryman
drove into Marienville and made inquiry
for Samuel Brecht and the bOy,a when
the 1895 train arrived at the station, and
Brecht and his son got off. they were on
hand with the horse and buggy. Mrs.
Brecht, it appears, sat in the buggy hold
ing the horse, while the liveryman watch
ing his opportunity, picked up the boy
and put him in the buggy, Immediately
jumping in himself and driving the
horse off at "A rapid rate
1t now appears that the woman, Mrs.
Ora Brecht, was married to Samuel
Brecht in Woods Co., o., 10 years ago;
that they had three children; Brecht left
there about Is months ago, taking with
him the oldest child, Walter, whom he
brought to Forest Co., Pa. Meanwhile
the wife sued out divorce in Woods Co.,
o., which was granted on the 10Th of
April last, which decree granted to the
wife the custody of all the children, as
the decree alleges, because she is in cir
cumstances to take care of them, being
the owner in fee of two town lots, at
Bowling Green, the county seat of Woods
Co. Armed with this decree, she came to
Tionesta about week ago to obtain the
child. Court being adjourned and there
being no Associate Judge resident in Tio-
nesta, before whom she could apply for
a writ of habeas corpus, and thus obtain
the child in a regular legal manner, she
was advised, we understand, by counsel
TO take the child, as under the law of our
State she has equal authority aud rights
as the lather. She acted on this advice,
hence the kidnapping" if a mother can
kidnap her own child.
Brecht, who is partially blind, had the
boy with him in his travels, selling desks
and black boards for livlihood, over the
county. Mrs Brecht and her son are
now at Bowling Green, o., no doubt.
Brecht is a native of Forest county, bis
father having lived in Hickory township
for number of years.

Henry Casey Dies From Injuries.

Henry Casey of West Hickory, whose
frightful fall from derrick was reported
i'm last weeks REPUBLICAN,, died from
his injuries on Saturday afternoon last.
He was working on well near the AL
baugh school house on branch of Little
Hickory creek on the 10Th inst, when
he fell from the derrick, a distance of
nearly forty feet, breaking his backbone
between the shoulder blades. He had
been doing so well that his physicians
had hopes of his ultimate recovery. The
young man was aged "a years, and be-
sides the parents and relatives, leaves a
large circle of friends to mourn his tragic
death. The funeral took place Monday
forenoon, the interment being in the GEM

SherDon, Chenango county, N. Y, on the
10Th day of May, 1887, he died at the resi-
dence of his brother. Hon. C. A. Hill, at
Tionesta, Pa, on Saturday, May q, 1899,
consequently he had reached in the jour
ney OF life his 62d birthday He spent his
youthful days at his birth place, and mi
grated with his family to Tidioute, Pa,
from thence to what is now Forest coun-
ty, where he lived several years. About
the year 1858 he went west, settling in
Richland county, Wis. When the bugle
of war sounded throughout the land, he
responded to the call Of his country, en-
listing in Co. b, 20th Wisconsin Vols,
with whom he served until the regiment
was mustered out, when ie was honora-
bly, discharged. Being a true patriot he
enrolled himself in the G. A. X. of which
he was a valuable member. Personally
he was kind in his disposition, and open
h earted, frank and cordial, and was dis
posed always to look on the bright side
fife. His mechanical ability was good.
He invented an apparatus for cleaning
cisterns and purifying water, which was
an ingenious contrivance, and was well
approved by the public, in the sale of
which valuable invention he was engaged
up to the time of his death. He leaves
surviving him six children, four daught-
ers and two sons, all of whom are doing
well in lifes various avocations also
three brothers, Hon. C. A. Hill, George
Hill and John Hill and one sister, Mrs.
Ellen Knott, of Arkansas. OF the origi-
nal Hill family, three of the brothers
served their country in the war, while
the father, Fred Hill, was patriot OF the
war of 1872. So they were eminently a
military family. Late in life the subject
of our sketch, united himself with the NJ.
e. churcn of which he was a consistent
member until his demise. Rev. Buzza
conducted services at the house at 4
o'clock on Monday afternoon, after
which the body was laid to rest in
Riverside cemetery. To him the lines of
the poet aptly apply:
Friend after frie d departs;
Who hath not lost friend?
There is no union here of hearts
That hath not here an end.

Memorial Day.

Providence was with the veterans yes
terday, and more perfect dav could not
have been wished for the carrying out of
their program in cOmmemJration oftheir
comrades. At an early hour detail
from Stow Post, consisting of an even
dozen OF "the boys under Commander
Robinson, repaired to the two cemeteries
on German Hill to strew flowers on the
graves of comrades buried there. At
Zuendel church yard the graves of the
following named comrades were decora-
ted: Jno. Root, j. G. Root, Geo. ID.
Rhodes, John Rhodes. Peter Sibble, Con-
ger. After hymn by local choir, the
detail came back to Mt Zion cemetery
and the graves of August Weingard, Fred
Glassner and Henry Ahlers were beauti-
fully remembered. Rev. C.. A. Rheil
made some appropriate remarks, after
which the comrades returned to Tionesta.
At noon the ladies OF the Relief Corps
served an elegant lunch at their hall TO
the veterans and their friends, after which
the line Of march to Riverside Cemetery
was taken up, the column being headed
by the Sabbath School children in charge
of their respective superintendents. At
the cemetery the beautiful Memorial ser
vices of the Grand Army of the Republic
were rendered and the line of march was
again taken up and the large assemblage
gathered at the court house. where the
exercises of the "service boOk'were gone
through with. Beautiful and appropri-
ate recitations were very nicely rendered
by Misses Maggie Evans, Alice Agnew
and May BuZza. Rev. b. +. Feitt closed
the exercises with a most eloquent adj
dress, Astounding in patriotism and pa
thetic reference to the achievements of
thosewho had laid down their lives for
their country.
Tiouesta's new band furnished beauti-
full music for the occasion, and the boys
were repeatedly complmented on the
rapid advacement made in the short time
they have been in practice. All in all the
day was most appropriately observed,
and the entire absense of anything like
bOisterousness on this occasion was very
gratifying both to the old veterans and
citizens.
At special meeting Of STOW Post after
the conclusion of services at the court
house, it was unanimously resolved that
the Post tender vote of thanks 10 all
who assisted them in the observance of
the day, g pecially the W. r. c., the Tio-
nesta band. and Misses Evans, Agnew
and Buzza, for their excellent reciiations.
Also to Rev. Rheil, pastor Of Mt. Zion
Lutheran church, and the choir for their
assistance.

country was to have a railroad, else
they would not have spent SO much
money in irrigation projects, being
SO far removed from the markets for

into consideration, it may be that the
Cody Enterprise. of which w. F. Cody

Element. This will probably be done
at the coming session. however, and
the fact that Burlington engineers have
been at work all summer to the south
Of Billings gives further color to the
belief that the report may be correct.
The Enterprise, it will be observed. is
very positive about the information it
gives. that portion Of it's article about
the intentions Of the Burlington being
reproduced below:
For quite a time past the Enterprise
has possessed information, Of q most
reliable character, that the Burlington
q Missouri war actively making prepa-
rations for tho commencement Of the
building Of a branch railroad from Ia
looka to Cody and on up the South
Fork Of the Shoshone river to the Dor.
ders Of the Yellowstone Park. This in
formation, until the present time, we
are not at liberty to publish, but the
restriction has now been removed and
we can positively affirm that opera
tions will almost Immediately be con
menced. The prevailing activity and
consequent demand for the services of
contractors elsewhere, has delayed the
work temporarily, but a sufficient force
has now been secured to begin the pre-
liminary work and the Enterprise hast
to spread the glad tidings to tho
people.
The route OF the road will be as fol-
lows: Leaving the main line at Tia
looka, Montana, near Fort Custer, up
to and crossing Pryor creek at it's head,
Pryor mountain on the west
side, thence southwest to the valley of
the Shoshone river, thence up north
side OF Shoshcne to a point about three
miles this side OF Corbett and into
Cody. After leaving Cody, around
Cedar mountain on the south side up
the south fork of the Shoshone river,
crossing at Jaokson's Hole.
