CHICAGO PIONEERS.
Their History Related by Mrs. w.
w. Gordon.

Their History Related by Mrs. w.
w. Gordon.
The Chicago Chronicle publishes the
following interesting letter written by
Mrs. w. W. Gordon to a Chicago
friend, in connection with her APP
preaching visit to the centennial:
The early history of Chicago has
much to do with the Kinzies. Kinzie
is an abbreviation of the old Scotch
name Mackenzie. John Mackenzie, IA
Their of Chicago's pioneer, settled in
Quebec and died when his son, born
in 1863, was but few months old.
His widow went to New York and
when young Kinzie was about 10 years
old he was sent to school at Williams
burg. on Long Island. He ran away
from school and went to Quebec. There
when nearly starved he was picked up
by a silverSmith, with whom he re-
manned for three years. A gentleman
from New York who recognized young
Kinzie on the street reported him to
his parents, who took him home. His
rowing disposition led him, however,
before he was 20 to seek his fortune
on the frontier.
There are evidences of his being in
Detroit as a fur trader as early as
1895 and by the close of the century he
had trading establishments on the
Maumee, at Sandusky, and at st. Jo-
seph, on Lake Michigan.
John Kinzie, as he was now called,
married in 1900 Mrs. McKillip, widow
of Capt. McKillip, a British officer. BY
her first husband she had a daughter,
Margaret, who was married at the age
of 16 to Lieut.. Helm, L. S. A. She
took part in the massacre at Chicago
and she is the central figure in the
bronze group concentrating that
event which stands at the foot of
Eighteenth street.
For the first two years after his
marriage Mr.. Kinzie resided in De-
troit and while on a visit to sister,
Mrs. Forsyth, at Sandwich Opposite
Detroit, in Canada, their first son,
John Harris. was born, July Z, 1903. In
the autumn of that year. when he was
but months Old the family moved to
Chicago.
He erected a house on the northern
bank of the river, directly facing the
fort Here the first white child born
in Chicago saw the light in 1905. She
was called Eleanor. Maria was born
in 1907 and Robert Allen in 1909.
ION the eve of the massacre of 1872
Mr.. Kinzie received private informa-
ton that the Indians intended attack
ing the troops if they attempted to
carry out the orders Capt. Head had
received to evacuate the fort. Capt.
Head was not only a brave soldier.
but one who conceived it to be his duty
to carry out his orders at any cost. Mr..
Kinzie's entreaties and arguments were
useless and all he could do was to pro-
vide his wife and children with an es-
cort of friendly Indians and then ac
company the little band of soldiers on
their fatal march in the hope that his
presence might protect his stepdaugh
ter, Mrs Helm, who insisted on accom-
panying her husband, and possibly act
as a restraint on the savages.
I'm 1916 MIR. KinZie moved back from
Detroit to Chicago. He died Jan. 6,
1928, having just completed his sixty
fifth year. He is buried in Graceland
Cemetery"

The Savannah morning news., 1903-09-17

Delegal advised the mothers to keep
their children off the streets at night
and told them that if this keeping-in
became general that there would be
less need of negro orphan asylums. The
habit of allowing children TO run the
streets at all hours and to go any
place they please is one of the great
reasons for the growth of shiftless-
ness i'm the rising generation of me-
groes and unless it is stamped out
speedily there will be even more
trouble between the races.
He deplored the higher education idea
for negroes. characterizing the study
of the languages and the sciences as
the exclusive privilege of the white
race, while the best thing for the
black man to do is to learn that he
must keep the place for which he is
fitted by nature and learn to work.
Work is the only salvation of the
colored race and when the colored
man begins attending industrial schools
and learning to earn his living at a
trade then he will have taken the
first step toward a betterment of his
condition.
The orphans home. for which Dele
gal was speaking. takes the homeless
negro children of the city in and be-
sides sheltering them provides oppor-
tunity for them to learn shoemaking,
sewing. bricklaying. etc A FIVE acre
tract has been secured on the OUT
skirts of the city.

Mayor Myers had Secretary Gamble
address the following to the applicant:
Replying to your favor of Sept. Is, adj
vising me of your desire to be put in
communication with young ladies of
Savannah, with view to matrimony.
beg to advise you that it would hardly
be the proper thing for me to do this
for man whose antecedents are en-
tirely unknown to me.
Savannah young ladies have no lack
of eligible sweethearts at home. and
abroad, whose pedigrees, and abilities,
and characters are well known.
Under the circumstances it might be
we'll for you to refer me to men or
standing who are acquainted with your
past career. A man of 30, which you
say you are, must have been employed
in one or more places, and should not
be at a loss to furnish recommenda-
tions. especially when such delicate
matter as a matrimonial attachment to
a Savannah lady is in view.

convention, Mr.. VanBerschot going as
a visitor.
Elaborate preparations are being
made for the meeting of the lodge and
a royal occasion is assured. Tie men,
bers of the fraternity in Baltimore
have spared no effort in arranging for
the entertainment of the visitors who
will flock to the city, but even at the
best there will no doubt be considerable
crowding. Thousands of visitors and
delegates are always in attendance at
these conventions and the facilities of
the best equipped cities are always
tested.
An extremely interesting programme
has been prepared besides the business
sessions One of the most interesting
features of the session to the public
will be the parade. 1t is expected that
there will be at least 10000 men in line
and before the time for forming there
NAV be still more in uniform and ready
for marching.
1t was hoped that some members of
the Forest City Canton No. l of this
city would be represented in this pa
rade but this has been abandoned. Mr..
VanBerschot is member of the Can
ton but he will be unable to join in the
parade owing to the fact that there has
been an unforeseen delay in the arrival
of the uniforms for the Canton.
An effort will probably be made to
bring the next session of the Sovereign
Grand Lodge to Georgia, and some
strength is lent to chance of the success
of the movement. from the fact that
the grand sire is an Atlanta man. AT
a recent meeting of the Concord Lodge
of Atlanta considerable enthusiasm was
shown for the movement, and the Sa-
vannah delegates will be asked to lend
their assistance in bringing the lodge
to Atlanta.
The only reason that can be urged
against bringing it South is the fact
that there would not likely be suffi-
cient hotel accommodation for the hosts
of visitors. This was the reason given
by Savannah Odd Fellows why the
lodge would not likely come to the
South, and why bringing it to Savan-
nah is entirely out of the question. st.
Louis win also ask for the next ses-
sion. and the fact that the Worlds
Fair will be in session there at the
time, makes it probable that the ma
iority of the delegates to the Baltimore
session, will vote for St. Louis. The
Savannah delegates will do what they
can to forward the interests of Atlanta
