AN OLD INSTRUM ENT.

Recently in looking over some old
papers in the court house we ran across
a mortage which is an interesting
instrument in., its wording. 1t was
issued the 9th day of October, 1919,
fifty-eight years ago. 1t covered saw
mill situated near the old piSmer mill,
or where the WausaI Street Railroad
Co is at present building its new power
house, aud strip of land described as
lot s. Sec. 35, L. 29, r. z This mill was
built by Patrick Fehely, Henry c. Good
rich and Levi Fleming, the latter still
an honored resident of our city. From
the wording Of the instrument We Judge
that the mill had not been lorg built,
This county was then a part Of Portage
county, which extended northward as
far as lake Superior
In the fall of 1S49 the mill mentioned
was sold to Campbell Fletcher FOR 49,
900, part of which was paid in cash and
the balance was covered by this
mortgage From its wording we Judge
that the first owners of the mill were in
arrears with their crew, and money in
the pinery in those days was not plenti
full The mortgage specifies that sums
ranging fran S75 to $500 be paid to GER
tain other individuals than the ones sell
ing the mill. These parties number
quite a few and here is one excerpt
from the paper: Peter Brown, $75; E.
Sprague, 5000; o Jones, 800 aud three
Dutchmen (names unknown) 1920. J"
Another party named in the mortgage
was Peter st. Austin, who died a few
years ago at his home southwest OF the
city
One stipulation mentioned was, And
the said Campbell Fletcher obligates
himself to deliver to the said Fehely
Goodrich q Fleming, at their order at
Big Bull Falls aforesaid, in the month
of September, 1852, five barrels of good
mess pork, valued at sixty-tive dollars"
Evidently the firm continued to carry
on numbering operations after selling
the mill to Fletcher, and prepared for
pork three years in advance.
Another condition was that the sum
of $1,000 should be paid ''in good,
merchantable lumber of the average
quality as it comes from the mill, at Sc
per thousand" Think of buying at the
present time grade of white pine lum-
Der of the quality turned out in those
DAYS, for So per thousand! More than
that is paid now for ordinary grades of
Eastwood and hemlock logs before they
are manufactured into lumber. Pay
ments on this mortgage extended over
period of years, showing that Fletcher
did not enter business with much
capital or with very bright prospects
ahead of him.
AS we said before a great many
parties were named as beneficiaries
under this instrument, but it is not
likely that many of them are living
today or are remembered by any of our
citizens except by few of the pioneers
like Mr. Fleming.
This paper was witnessed before the
late Judge Geo. w Cate at Plover, Oct
8, 1S49 Mr. Cate, who was later circuit
Judge in this district was then a strug-
Cling young attorney and signed the
mortgage in his capacity as notary

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Wansau second team 5. Merrill seq
ond team s.
In game in which the conditions
were such that only straight" foot
ball could be played To any advantage,
the Merrill seconds tied the Mausau
team at Merrill last Saturday Tie
game was played on field covered
with three inches of snow and not bit
of it had been cleaned off With the
field as it was no one was able TO keep
on his feet long enough 10 make any
great gains After the ball had been
played with five minutes 1T was SO
coated with ice that it was very hard 10
handle especially with hands that were
so cold that they could hardly bend,
These conditions made it impossible
for Wausau to use any of their trick
plays that they had been practicing on
during the past week and so all their
good gains were made through the line.
One of Wausau's best source of gain
was to send Dean through the line.
lie would wriggle through the bunch
and at the edge of the heap some one
would give him o push and he would
slide about six feet Although Merrill
had the heavier line, all of Wausau's
best gaines were thru it.
The Wausau team didnS play their
best game in the first half and it was in
this part of the game that Merrill
scored. The fact that Merrill scored
was ''fidke" 1t happened like this:
Erickson of Merrill tried drop kick
from the twenty five yard line but it
was failure and Wausau got the ball
on their six yard line. They were
penaized on a forward pass that didn't
work and put back on their goal line.
Wausau then tried an end ran but they
fumbled the ball and one of the Merrill
team fell on the ball back of Wausau's
goal scoring five points; they failed to
kick goal.
In the second half Wausau started to
play ball Up to about the middle of
the half both sides did good deal of
punting. Wausau soon saw that they
could not score by playing the kicking
game and so with the ball on their forty
yard line theyNstarted to buck the line
Theydid this so successfully that with
II seven minutes Sipes crossed Merrills
goal for touch down. Sipes tried for
goal but failed as the ball was too icy.
With few exceptions this game was
the first that the members of the team
have ever played against an outside
team and every one of them played
great game. When it came to an ex-
change of punts, Dean always punted
about five yards further than the Mer
rill man.
The line up was:
