visitors to the agency from Walker

whites was not objected to by the
Indians az the spectators were much
impressed by the solemnity of the
occasion and the nature Of the rite.
The venerable chief was buried

NOT The ASSAlLANT
Man Held Here as the One
Who Attacked Alma ia
cobSon Released

Thursday night of last week a man
giving his name as William Sutton,
answering in all regards, with the ex-
ceptlon of height, the description
given by Alma jacobson of Cushing,
on whom rape had been attempted
the Tues 'av previous, came in from
the West and was placed under arrest.
He was lcdged in Jail and had no
intimation Of what he was bel for
until Friday afternoon, when Miss
Jacobson and a clerk Of Kjeldergaard
& Co., came down from Cushing to
identify the man. Both Of them said
they thought he was the man. but he
denied ever having seen them and
gave out story to the effect that he
had been employed as fireman for the
Northern Pacific railway at Hawley,
having left that place the previous
Tuesday evening, and further. gave
the name Of the foreman he worked
under 1T that place, stating that that
man would substantiate his story.
This of course. if true, would clear
him as the attempt on the girl had
ben made at about noon of that day.
Accordingly the sheriff telephoned
to the foreman mentioned, at Havley,
and Friday evening received a
corroboration of Sutton's story from
him.
1t being ther plainly evident that
this was not the man wanted the
authorities released him and the
chances are that the real perpetrator
has long ere now made his departure
for more healthy fields.
Little Falls herald. [volume] (Little Falls, Morrison County, Minn.) 1889-1950, 1907-08-02

In connection with the above, it
shows how easily person can be mis-.
taken. II this man for some reason
or other could not have made plain
where he was at the time the attempt
took place. the probability is that he
would have been tried and convicted
Of crime of which he knew nothing.

HORACE GREEl.Y,
GERRIT SMITH,
PctcrbOrO, N. Y.
Dated August Id, 1850
Work of Mr.. Shea.
Work of Mr.. S

Miss Shea is the daughter of the Late
Hon George Shea. The above picture
shows her seated in her iinricksha at
Yokohama, she having spent the time
from November of 1904 to the year 1906
in the Orient.
When Miss Shea was q child she ac-
companied her father in his visits to
Jefferson Davis, then imprisoned at For
tress Monroe. She retains the most dis
tinct impressions of Mr. Davis, and speaks
of him with great sympathy and respect,
Miss Shea possesses n most engaging
personality, and won the hearts Of ali
those fortunate enough to make her ac-
uuaintance during her recent visit to
Richmond. The officers and members OF
the Confederate Memorial Literary So
ciety are very grateful and appreciative
of Miss Shea's valuable gift, which they
prize for hers and her fathers sake and
for the sake of history.
Mr. Shea was Chief Justice of the Ma
rine Court of New York from 1870 to
1889, and associate counsel with Charles
o'Conor in defending Jefferson Davis.
1t was largely due to Mr.. Shea's untirlng
arrorts. In raising the money and pro-
