Old settlers Meet Mt Mason City.

1t was estimated that fully
1000 people gathered at the Old
Settlers meeting held at Halls
Grove at Mason City on the II.
Owing to late arrivals in the
morning the programme was not
rendered until the afternoon. A
goodly number had assembled al
the grove before noon where they
enjoyed a picnic dinner with
friends and relatives. Only a
few of the pioneers who located
there twenty five years ago could
be seen in the crowd. But those
who came few years later were
there in great numbers and APP
peared to have enjoyed the oc-
casion as those who blazed the
way for the first settlement.
1t was nearly ? O'Clock in the
afternoon when the Mason City
band appeared at the grove
followed by a crowd of people,
who accompanied the band from
Mason. The exercises were open
ed with music by the band and
prayer by Rev. Robt.. Hodges.
This was followed with a song
by the Mason City choir.
DR.. Pickett was introduced by
II. J. Wood, who spoke at lengt h.
Roy Dady and sister favored
the audience with song that
was highly appreciated.
Miss Laura Gregg, State
lecturer for the cause of Woman
Suffrage was then introduced.
She delivered an able address on
pioneering" that not only show
ed up her cause we'll, but met
the hearty approval of large
percent of her audience.
Ada Runyan sang a solo that
elicted the hearty applause OF
those present. The exercises
were concluded with music by
the band.
After the exercises the mem
bers of the organization meet
and elected officers for the ensu-
ing year and made date and loca-
ton for next year.
The officers elected were Jas,

ShohiSS Ds ClHdul WAS DOIH III
Ohio, May 90, 1912. Left father.
less when seventeen years old, the
care of the family of brothers and
sisters fell largely upon him. As
a young man he came to Porter
county where he took up the
profession of teaching, and for
twenty years winter and summer,
he taught in the schools of Lake
and Porter counties. Here he
was married TO Eliza Nj. White
on May l9, 1872. Five daughters
were born to them of whom four
survive.
Failing health finally compell-
ed him to give up his profession
and in the spring of 1880 he re-
moved with his family to Custer
county, Nebraska. Here he en-
gagged in farming and later in
mercantile business, but his:
changing health caused him to
relinquish first one and then an
other of these pursuits, and sever
al years ago he retired from ac-
tive business life.
He did not regain his strength
however, and in April of this
year Mrs. Pelham decided to bring
him back to Chesterton in the
hope that the change might be
of benefit. The trip was in vain
he never rallied, and on the night
of June 10, hepassed away. The
funeral was held on Sunday after
noon at the home of his daughter
Mrs. Book. He was laid to rest
in the Chesterton Cemetery, six
of his former pupils acting as
pall-bearers.
In spite of ill-health, Mr.. Pei
hams life was one of activity, of
usefulness, and of influence. AS
a teacher he is remembered here
by scores of those whose lives he
enriched by his counsel and
sympathy, in the long period of
years he spent in their midst.
Busily engaged in his work OF
teaching, when the Civil War
began he willingly laid aside his
books and offered himself as a
volunteer. Though never ac-
copied for active service, yet he
served his country nobly in the
hospital work and as a recruiting
officer, and many were the young
men who went to the front
through his influence.
In his western home, likewise
there perhaps was no one through
out Custer county more widely or
more favorably known than he.
Coming to that county when it
was still the frontier. In the
twenty three years of his resi-
dence there he was looked upon
as one of the foremost citizens
and one who commanded the re-
spect and confidence of all. He
was one who, as a citizen, was
upright, earnest and progressive;
as a friend, was loyal and true,
and as father was kind, con-
siderate, and helpful. He is one
who will be missed by all who
knew him and the sympathy of
his many friends go out to his
widow and daughters whom he
leaves to mourn his loss.

initiating situation, from which there
was no escape.
At last they reached the inn, whittier
their chests soon followed them, sent
by Bradhurst, together with their pas
sage money, which he very honestly re.
funded.
Mary soon donned her woman's at
tire, of which she had supply in her
chest, and at least felt more comforta-
bic without the jack boots. She had
made her toilet alone for the first time
in her life, having no maid to help her,
and wept as she dressed, for this disap-
pointment was like plucking the very
heart out of her. Her hope had been
so high that the fall was all the hard
er. Nay, even more; hope had become
fruition to her when they were once
a-shipboard, and failure right at the
door of success made it doubly hard to
bear. It crushed her, and where before
had been hope and confidence was
nothing now but despair. Like all peo-
pie with a great capacity for citation,
when she sank she touched the bottom.
Alas, Mary, the unconquerable. was
down at last.
This failure meant so much to her
It meant that she would never be
Brandon's wife, but would go to
France to endure the dreaded old
Frenchman. At that thought a recoil
came Her spirit asserted itself, and
she stamped her foot and swore upon
her soul it should never be-never, nev-
er, so long as she had strength to fight
or voice to cry 'No" The thought Of
this marriage and of the loss of Bran
don was painful enough, but there
came another, entirely new to her and
infinitely worse.

American flags.
Proposing the health of his guest,
Mr.: Wilson struck a note which was
followed by the other American
speakers in saying that while not
wishing that Sir Thomas would lift
the cup, Americans would rather see
MN successful than any other living
Blitisher.
Sir Thomas Lipton's speech, which
was received with great enthusiasm,
was full Of confidence. He said:
i have the greatest respect as I
nave reason to have, for the skill of
Americans as shiphuilders, but you
would not expect or wish me to toe
the lire at Sandy Hook in any but
the most hopeful frame of mind. 1

soon be employed In getting an in

advantages which 1 never had before.
FROM what I hear, the Reliance is

want to win against the very best
Chat America is able to produce If
my hopes are fulfilled I am certain
