OF THE LIGHTHOUSES.

Shortly after the close of the civil war
Capt. G. W.. Geisendorff came here from In
dianapolis and invested more than 100000
in land and factories. He had been a men,
Der of the indianapolis City Council for
eight consecutive terms, had raised a COM
pany of soldiers, served two years in the
war and was the owner of extensive wooden
mills, and a large dry goods store in the
business center of the State capital. He
sold his business and came here to carve
out a bigger fortune in the wilderness. He
found the country full of poor people clam
oring for work, and the first flour that he
turned out from the big mill he built was
given to charity. His popularity increased
until he was elected TO the legislature, serv-
ing two terms. Finally he became finan-
cially embarrassed while fulfilling a con-
tract to construct five miles of the new
railroad through this section. and went into
voluntary bankruptcy In 1872. He returned
to Indianapolis a broken-hearted, penniless
man, dying soon afterwards, and this vi
entity has never yet recovered the pros
perity it had when he lived here. His wild
ow, who is now living at Indianapolis, is
about to action in court to quiet
her title to the property, and as much of
the land involved has been subdivided and
titles, the amount in question will aggre-
gate several hundred thousand dollars
