portion of the city OF Ft. Madison. The
family moved to Merrimac Mills on the
Skunk river in 1888, and there Elihu
was apprenticed to millwright. Buf-
falo and elk were plentiful on the Iowa
prairies and the boy captured a pair OF
young elk which he trained to drive.
They were later purchased by Govern
or Grimes and were a familiar sight at
Mt. Pleasant for many a day.
During the Blackhawk war, Elihu
entered the service and participated in
a battle with the Indians near the pres
ent site of Davenport. During the
civil war, he was a member of the
Fourth Iowa cavalry. He married
Cynthia Jane Meeker Of Jefferson
county in 1S45, and eight children We're

county in 1883, but came to Glenwood
about two years ago. Despite his ad-
vanced age he is enjoying good
health.
