w. 3. Armstrong Tells Interesting
Anecdote Of Forty Years Ago.
w. b. Armstrong, agent for the Bur
linton at this place and an old resi-
dent of the city. related to represent
alive of the Courier today an anecdote
in connection with the article in refer
ence to the special edition of the Cou-
rier which was issued by j. W.. Norris
the day following the assassination of
Abraham Lincoln.
Mr.. Armstrong was agent for the old
Keokuk & Des Moines railroad at the
time of Lincoln's death, and his office
was in the old depot building which
stood short distance east of the pres
ent Rock Island freight house. The
B. & M. road also used this depot, and
the latter company had wire through
Ottumwa. This was a luxury not
sported at that time by the Keokuk &
Des Moines, and even the B. & M. had
no sound telegraph operator. j. B.
Pickel, paper operator" was en-
ployed at the depot, and on the morn
ing following the tragedy in Washing
ton, when the telegraph instrument
began sending out its tape with the
message telling of the Presidents
death, Mr.. Pickel read the dots and
dashes to Mr. Armstrong. The mes
sage was not intended for Ottumwa
but was merely caught as it went
through"
AS soon as the railroad men could
grasp the whole meaning of the awful
news Mr. Armstrong set off for the
business center of the town at top
speed. He fastened to the Corier Of
flee and informed ]. w. Norris, then
the editor, of the direful calamity that
had befell the country. The news
spread like wildfire and the little town
was probably more excited than it had
been during the dark four years of the
Civil war. The Courier later received
private message from Burlington,
but the extra edition was printed or
