QUARRY F%REE-FOR-ALL
Two Injured in Bad Fight at Quarry
Depot Saturday Night - HaIver
johnson sustains Severely Cut Head
james Pokasty Also Hurt.

A free-for-all fight, judging from the
best information o~btainable, was en-
acted at the Quarry depot Saturday
evening as a finale to a prologue start
ed in this city. AS a result two were
injured, one quite seriously.
When No. 4 on the Northwestern
pulled into the Quarry station. James
Pokasty and Barney Haiverson, 1t is
claimed, picked on to John johnson,
aged %, son of Halver Johnson. The
quarrel had started before the men
left this city, II was renewed as soon
as the train reached Quarry. Young
Johnson's father stepped in to help his
son, and in the melee Vas nearly laid
out by a blow on the head, said to
have been administered by Pokasty.
Ernest Farmer, a young man who
thought that a man of Johnson's age
was hardly getting a square deal at
the hands Of men so much younger,
took a hand. and knocked Pokasty
down, cutting Il cash in his head Both
johnson and Pokasty had to be waited
on by a surgeon. Johnson is the worst
hurt, but his physician thinks he will
get along nicely providing no compli-
cations set in. Johnson is about so
wears old. Pokasty and Halverson are
around 80.
Up to this afternoon no steps had
been taken toward bringing n Grim
inal action as a result of the melee.

Look out. Frank; I'm going to
shoot you We're the word hat rang
in merry jest late Sunday afternoon,
when l1-year-old Jesse Flower, son OF
William Flower, our miles northwest
of iowa, pulled a 22-caliber rifle to his
shoulder and aimed it at Frank Had
dock. also aged II. The gun that Mas
ter Flower believed not to be loaded,
went off, as it always does, and the
bullet struck Haddock in the left
breast. The wound is a dangerous one,
altho it is believed that the lad has "a
good chance for recovery providing
complications do not arise.
The accidental shooting took place
at about $50 Sunday evening. Young
Haddock is IL son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Haddock, who live directly
across the road from the old
place, which is occupied by Mr.. ana

lung, penetrating the lung. 1t then
scent it's force and lodged, quite prob
ably, against the shoulder blade. NO ef-
fort has been made to locate the bullet
for fear of starting a he~morrhagic
condition. Sc far the patient has shown
but little tendency toward hem

allure, but that is expected. His condi-
ton this afternoon is declared by his
physician to be as favorable as could
he wished for. The opinion is expressed
that, providing no complications arise

Fffty-seven years ago this month.
before Marshalltown came into eXis-
tence, Rev. James Finley Hestwood

in Marshall county, where five or six
families had settled. The summer Of
1851 is remembered in that part Of
floods known since white people settled
there. The families We're shut in by
Honey creek, Minerva creek and the
Iowa river. When the streams became
swollen and the surrounding country
was inundated, the Rev, Mr.. Hest
woods home became a refuge. He res
cued one family by running his canoe
into the door of the cabin and loading
them in. The refugees were soon out
of meal and for six weeks they had no
other flour than that made by pound
ing corn in mortars. The first court
held in the county convened in a log
cabin on the edge of the timber north
of this city. The Rev. Mr.. HestWood
was a member of the first grand jury.
The Jury room was the timber north
of the cabin.
Rev. Mr.. Hestwood, who is now re-

years preached Christianity, teaching
men and women the way to. better liv-
ing, in different parts of the state. He
was born May 1, 1880, in Delaware
county, Ohio, being one of "a family of
eight children. In October, 1S49, he
married and a few days later
started west with father. mother,
brothers, sisters and others-altogether
a company Of t%wenty-one. They
stopped near Sycamore, DeKalb county
Illinois, rented farms, but left them
as soon as their crops were disposed
Of and started for Iowa, reaching Ma
haska county Oct. 20, 1850. His father
became a local minister, his eldest
brother, Samuel, and himself became
members Of the Iowa conference and
two younger brothers, John and
William, of the Des Moines conference.
When he arrived in Iowa, young
Hestwood possessed one pair of 4-year-
old steers, but not a penny in money.
