DEATH OF MAJOR POND.
The Hero Of BAXTER Springs and Q
Literary Celebrity.

The Hero Of Baxter Springs and Q
Literary Celebrity.
New York, June 2l.-Major James
Burton Pond, the we'll known man.
ager of lecturers and SINCERE, died
today at his home In jersey City as
the result of an operation on June
II in which his right leg was ampu-
tated. Major Pond, who had been
Ill for q month, two weeke ago un.
derwent a slight operation, but the
wound failed to heal satisfactorily,
and II finally became necessary to
remove the leg. It was announced
at the time that the patient had
withstood the shock we'll and that
the sergeons were hopeful of his re-
covery.
Major Pond was one of the re-
markable characters developed
during the civil war period. He
was born in Allegheny county, New
York. June II, 1888. His family
moved to Wisconsin in 1847. where
they lived upon farm. They were
pioneers and the boy, James, ex-
perienced unusual difficulties in
obtaining an education, and at the
age of IA he walked 20 miles to the
nearest town and got position in
a printing Office where he learned
the printer's trade. When the war
broke out he enlisted in the Third
Wisconsin cavalry, was elected
and commanded the third
battalion of the regiment during
more than two years of perilous
service on the borders between
Missouri and Kansas.
In October, 1853, he was in COM
mand at Baxter Syringe, when he
was attacked by the guerrilla chief,
Quantrell, who was on his way
south after the destruction of Law
renee, Kas. Dressed in new federal
Ouantrelrs men marched
into Captain Ponds camp under
the stars and stripes. In less time
than It takes to write it, l0l of the
11S In the federal command were
dead. At Quantrell's signal each
guerrilla chose his man and shot
him down. With the little band of
remaining soldiers Captain Pond
in repulsing the enemy
and held the post three days until
relief came. When, at the expira-
ton of the three years term the
regiment was reorganized,
Captain Pond was commissioned
major. He was discharged in De-
tober, 1885, having served four
years.
Major Pond has since 1874 owned
and operated the Ridpath Lyceum
Bureau, which has furnished lee
lures to nearly every town in the
United States.
