JAMES A. MOUNTS CAREER.
Raised a Poor Boy, He Reached the
Governors Chair.


James Atwell Mount was born on a farm
in Montgomery county, Indiana, March %,
1s4s His father, Atwell Mount, was bern
in Farquier county. Virginia, in 1906; moved
to Shelby county, Kentucky, in 1913. His
mother. Lucinda Fullenwider, was born
in Shelby county, Kentucky, in 1908. They
were married in 1926 and moved to Mont
gomery county, Indiana, in 1928.
In the unbroken forest they built a log
cabin and lived a life of toll and priva-
ton. They were temperate, frugal and in
dustrious people. They reared a family
mother, with her own hands. wove the fab
RIGS that in a large measure clothed the
family. They were Presbyterians and the
father was elected elder in log cabin
when Bethel Church was organized in 1881,
serving until his death, which occurred
In 1861.
Governor Mount himself was long an
elder in the Presbyterian Church and
held a prominent position in local, state
and national councils of leading representa-
tives of that denomination. Governor
Mount was noted in his boyhood for en-
ergy and industry.
His school privileges were meager his
attendance being confined to periods of
the worst weather in winter when farm
work was suspended.
ENTERED THE ARMY.
During the early months of the campaign
of the civil war his boyish enthusiasm was
aroused and he entered the army, enlisting
I'm the Seventy-second Indiana Volunteers
in 1862
During his boyhood days and up until the
time he entered the army 40 cents repre-
sented the total amount of money ever
given to him.
He became a member of the famous Wild
er Brigade. and of his courage General
Wilder said he twice volunteered for the
ski-mish lire work during the battle of
Chickamauga, when to do so seemed to be
tempting fate. He was the first skirmishcr
of Sherman's army to cross the Chatta-
hoochee river, through which he charged
at Roswell. Ca. at daylight July .. 1864.
His enthusiasm and patriotism are illus
trated by the fact recorded in the history
OF the regiment. that while suffering from
the measles. In 1852. he marched through
two days OF incessant rain, and wading
through swollen streams. and also that DUR
ing three years service he did not miss
single march, skirmish or battle.
ENTERED SCHOOL.
After the close of the war, with the little
money he had saved. he entered the old
Presbyterian Academy of Lebanon, and, by
characteristic diligence. succeeded In
crowding the work OF two years into one.
Shortly after ms retirement from the
academy he married Miss Kate A Boyd.

I went in and in about twenty minutes
told Kerr to go and get me rig. Death
and Campbell were then having second
round of drinks with the girl and 1 or
dered quart bottle of champagne. When
I first entered the room Jennie staggered
over toward me and threw her arms
around me and continued to hug me for
several minutes. She finally became para

Death, another of the accused. followed
McAlister on the stand. His testimony did
not differ materially from McAlister's.
Death said he met Jennie on the street
and took her to Saals saloon. There she
drank a cocktail an absinthe frappe and
several glasses of wine. McAlister poured
out the wine. Jennie acted in a drunken
way when McAiister came into the room
and put her arms around McAlister's neck
The champagne made her worse. In the
hack Jennie became sleepy, and Campbell
