at Lexington. l was surprised one day
to receive a note from her saying she
wanted a private interview. | went
to see her, and when we were alone
she told me she wanted to. lay a matter
before me that concerned her honor
and that she had determined to tell me
everything and trust to me for protec-
ton. She then proceeded to tell me of
the proposal by an officer of the regi-
ment, one of high standing and who
had access to the prison.
"She said she was helpless and that
she did not know what to do except
to lay the matter before me. | was
naturally indignant at the conduct of
the officer, as Annie, whatever polit-
ical crimes might have been charged to
her, was girl of irreproachable char
acter. l told her she could depend
upon me to protect her and that
would have the officer court martialed
and driven from the army. No. she
said, do not do that. There is enough
publicity about me already. 1 do not
ask that and would not have you take
such a step. Your word that [ shall
be protected is all l ask Thus the
matter ended. Soon after that Annie
was taken from my jurisdiction"
From Warrensburg she was sent to
the Gratiot street prison in st. Louis,
where many Missourians of southern
sympathies were confined, After she
had been there few weeks she and a
Confederate officer imprisoned there
dug a tunnel under the prison walls,
the officer doing the digging and Annie
carrying the dirt away in her apron.
They reached a point where they
thought it safe to ascend to the surface
and break through. They were, in
deed, after weeks Of patient toll, out
side the prison inclosure and under
the brick pavement Of the street When
they raised the bricks and were about
to make their exit a prison guard dis
covered them and shot the officer. An
ME went back, to remain till the close
of the war.
In the meantime her betrothed, Cap
tain Blunt, was killed in a fight near
Chapel hill.
When the war ended and Annie was
released she returned to her old home
in Lafayette county. AS the years
went by she met and loved Mr. Par
kerr whose wife she now is. She be-
came the mother of many children,
who grew up to call her name blessed,
for she made a good and blameless
woman. Recently she and her husband
removed from Odessa, Lafayette coun-
tv, to the state of Louisiana.

For many years the old Beers house,

had the reputation of being haunted
and was unoccupied until Newton Ly-
ons of Central came to Bloomsbury to
work and took up his residence in the
Beers house, living alone. Mr.. Lyons
heard the ghost stories, but laughed at
them and for a month slept in the
house and declared there was no such
thing as ghost. He hadsan expert
ence, however, one night recently which
caused him to change his mind, and
now he cannot be persuaded to spend
another night in the house.
Mr.. Lyons says that shortly after go

about the house which he could not ac-
count for but he did not make an in

Engineer Johnnie Clark of the Louis

train over the Kentucky Central branch
of the Louisville and Nashville. The
brave engineer knew that to quit his
post would mean a wreck and endan-
ger the lives of the passengers, so he
held the reptile at bay with one hand
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1903-10-03


while he manipulated the lever with
the other, despite the fact that the
heavy coils of the reptile wound about
his arm made it difficult for him to
move. Finally he brought the train
safely to it's next station and after
stopping it put his dreaded companion
to death in a unique manner.
Clark was bringing No. IL down from
Paris to Rowland. Between Lancaster
and Paint Lick are two tunnels, both
located in a remote and rocky section.
In the high lodges and crags the rattle
snake, or, as the scientist terms it, Gro
talus horridus, makes it's loathsome
den. On a recent trip a rattlesnake,
approaching the hygienic value of a
sun bath, coiled itself on one Of the
rocks just above the longest tunnel.
Clark brought No. IL through, and just
as his cab passed the snake, dislodged
from it's post by the jar or having fall
len in fright, landed in the cab. Seek
ing to escape, it ran up the reverse lev
er and before Clark had realized it's
presence had coiled about the engi-
neer's left arm.
1t was fortunate for Clark that the
reptile did not attempt at once to
strike If it had it would have meant
the end of Clark and the probable de-
struction of the train. But the snake
after wrapping around Clark's arm
swayed to and fro a moment, fixing it's
stony eyes on the engineer. The coils
frightened, the neck arched, the jaws
slowly opened, and Clark heard the
buzz of the rattles.
At that sound Clark realized that it
was time to do something and gripped
the snake just below the head with his
free hand
His first thought was to tear the rep
tile off and throw it from the cab, but
with one arm held by the snake and
the other engaged with it's head he
jumping over the rails at a rapid speed
on rough part Of the road, and he
knew he could not take any chances.
Mile after mile sped by with Clark
keeping off the snake and running his
train. Rowland was near, and if he
could reach the station and stop the
train he would be able to finish the rat
tier. The fireman, terror stricken by
the very sight of the rattler, was back
on the tender, not daring to enter the
cab
Rowland drew near, and Clark re-
versed the lever. The train slackened
its speed, and the engineer brought it
to stop at the station. The fireman
leaped from the cab and fed.
Then with his left hand Clark opened
stopcock, while with his right he
brought the snakes head into the steam
that poured forth. The ugly body
writhed as the snake, under the pain of
it's execution, tried with all it's strength
to get away. But Clark, although his
hand suffered some from the fiery
stream, doggedly held on until the
snakes writing grew more and more
feeble and finally ended.
The RATHER measured feet inches
and had eight rattles. Clark took the
body to Cincinnati, where he will have
1t mounted and hung in Superintendent
Hoods office. The rattles will be used
for a watch charm.

in the work of caring for the wounded,
the burial of the dead or the rescuing
of the captured. Armed men of either
side, sometimes in companies Of two
or three or more, sometimes alone, rode
up and down the country seeking each
other with hostile intent and fighting
at every crossroads.
In the midst Of it all went Annie
Tickle, fitting about hither and thith-
er, sometimes like an angel of mercy
ministering to some sick or wounded
friend in concealment, sometimes bold

was all of kind with her, anything to
assist the men of the south
Her chosen one was Captain Andy
Blunt, a dashing, daring fellow who
followed the irregular methods of the
guerrillas-here today, there tomorrow.
One of his men, Otto Hinton, was cap
tured in a skirmish and imprisoned in
Lexington. Hinton was one OF the
handsomest young men that ever came
from old Lafayette.
Here came in Annie Tickle. Otto
Hinton was her neighbor and friend.
She went to Lexington to make her
temporary home with a friend. The
place was strongly garrisOned by Fed
eral troops. Hinton's jovial good ma
ture and musical accomplishments had
so charmed the Federal authorities
that he was allowed unusual liberties.
In charge of a single guard, he was
permitted to visit some Of his friends
and occasionally dine with them. At
one Of these places he often met Annie
and thus became acquainted with the
plan for his rescue. Annie resolved to
take the guard into her confidence. He
listened to her story and professed 10y
atty to her Hinton was invited to take
supper on a certain evening at the
house of the friend where he had often
met Annie. The night arrived and
Hinton and the guard came. Annie,
too, was there. Blunt and one of his
men were to be in town in disguise,
call at the house and knock at the door
at certain time. They were to be ad-
mitted were to overpower the guard
but not harm him. and take Hinton
away and restore him to his liberty.
Annie had told the guard ALL and he
had assented.
In the face of the plot now about to
be developed Annie, the guard, Hinton
and the people of the household sat
down to supper just as the shadows Of
night came on.
The supper was we'll nigh concluded,
and the appointed moment had arrived.
There was the knock at the door.
ton knew it. The guard knew it. The
guard knew what it meant. He arose
from his seat at the table, drew his
revolver and shot Hinton dead. This
was the signal for the entrance through
the rear of the house Of squad of sol
diers, who first arrested Annie and
then rushed to the front door to secure
Blunt, but he and his man had fled as
soon as they heard the pistol shot
Annie was hurried away to the same
prison that had for many weeks been
the home of Hinton.
From Lexington she was sent to

full possession of his senses, he grab
bed the thing that held his throat with
both hands, and instantly his hands
became paralyzed, but the clutch on his
throat loosened.
He jumped from the bed to follow
what appeared to him to be the dim
form of woman, and when near the
door OF the room he was suddenly
stricken blind and fell to the floor I'M
conscious, remaining in that condition
for an hour. His eyes panied him for
the entire day and were red and in

Annie Tickle was a girl who when
the war began lived in Lafayette coun-

Odessa. She was the daughter Of a
substantial farmer and of intense
southern sympathies. Though mere
girl, she was a leader among her sex
