An article appeared in the Register
Leader Sunday relating to what was
known as the Patriot War, or the at
tempted uprising, against British au-
thority in Canada in 1887, which very
much interested several of our people
here, as several of them had rela-
tives who went over to assist. The
article referred to mentions the fact
that several of these families who had
been thus engaged, later settled in
Jackson county, this state, which is
correct and as Audubon county has
several Jackson comfy families, it
thus happens that our people are con-
nected in that history. At least three
families here had ancestors in that
war. The father of John and William
Davis, the grandfather of John Ward
and the father of Warren and Del
Cole, were all engaged in the affair.
These men we're living close along the
Canadian border and it was easy and
natural to go over and assist the Can
adams who wanted to throw off
British authority. Grandma Cole
who is still living here at the advanc-
ed age Of SO years, remembers very
well the departure of her husband for
the uprising and his return wounded.
The uprising was not as extensive as
ii was expected to be.

From the Shelby Co. Republican
and from the Harlan American we
gather that the east part of Shelby
county suffered as much from the great
hail storm of last week as did the
west part of this county, and perhaps
even more. That part of the county
east of line running through Irwin,
Jacksonville and little west of Elk
horn, was devastated so far as the
crops were concerned and many build
ings were destroyed. The wind was
heavier in that county than in this.

Monday night Atlantic was treated
to sensation, shooting affair in
which two young men, Ike Allen and
Jack Maher, came near losing their
lives. Too much whiskey and carous-
ing at bad house was evidently to
blame. They with another companion,
George Sines, went to the house of H..
w. Ackles, evidently for immoral
purposes. Later they became involv-
ed in quarrel and Ackles shot
Maher in the abdomen and Allen three
times, once in the breast. 1t was
thought that both might die, but we
hear today the chances are good for
recovery. Mr.. and Mrs. Ackles and
the three men are in Jail awaiting legal
Investigations.

THANKFUL UNTO HIM.

BE thankful unto the Father;
Our Father In Heaven abovei
Who by day and by night,
Makes our lives all SO bright
With Ills wonderous care and h4s love,
Be thankful unto the Father,
AS our Thanksgiving day draws near.
Be right gratefully glad
For the blessings we've had
Through alt the bright days Of the year,
What occasion have we for thanks
giving this year? AS a nation, as in
dividuals, what special reasons have we
for being truly thankful2 To whom
should our thanks mostly be given, and
why7
Well, there are reasons many and
great why we should, both as nation
and as individuals be heartily grateful,
and should show our gratitude in some
uninistakable way.
Our national prosperity, our beauti-
full country, our free institutions Of one
sort and anotl Or, all call for our thanks
ever If they are not altogether just what
we may very properly wish they might
be. No one needs to be reminded of
this fact surely.
But there are benefits not so often or
gratefully remembered as they should
be, at least they are seldom if ever men
toned, and it might be we for us at
this glad season, to give little thought
to one of these, that has interested me
not little a. times. It lie this: Are
we "a grateful as we olght to be for
the love Of our friends and for the
many favors we receive from them
Have we all been as faithful in our duty
to dear mother, or sister or other kim
dred as ought to have been? Or have
we mostly sad regrets on account Of
neglected duties, and privileges now for
all time lost to usl Have ore not all oc-
casion for thanksgiving2 L, new COM
mandment that, "Ye love o. her, ,
is one Of Gods choice gifts to us. Are
you for this gift of love, human and
divine, thankful unto Hmm"
Some of our friends who were with
us last Thanksgiving day can be with
US on earth no more. Once when they
were absent we could sent them a fes-
tai day card or love-letter, now even
that privilege is denied us. Still we
have the sweet old memories, never to
be forgotten. The love that has lived
In the past, Is not dead and never will
be. Words cannot fully express heart
emotions. Heart aches and heart hap
piness can only be understood by those
who have known their power to crush
or uplift. And yet we have right to
say thank you," whenever we are
truly grateful as my heart is today.
A kind word may be easily spoken or
written, and seems to be Of little mo-
ment, but it is wonderfully helpful
