memory of Ansel Briggs, Iowa's first
governor and whose name in insep-
arably interviewer with the early his
tory Of the state, was honored to-
day in the unwilling Of monument

| he wished to fix the matter up but
could only pay part of 1t now and
would pay the rest in two weeks. I
told him that would be all right. so

paid. and he said he would pay the

write me. to which l answered him
that would be all right. On Saturday
morning. Unexpectedly to me, he
called again. and smiling pleasantly
said, he thought he would just come
back and finish the matter up, and
so paid me the balance due on the
claim, for which l gave him another
| receipt.
He then seemed to be troubled
about something. and told me that
In the depot at Wenatchee he heard
two men talking about him and they
said the best thing he could do would
be to fix that matter up. ana he evil
| IDENTIFY had reference to the matter
we had in hand, and so came back
told him there was nothing in this
business that anyone could possibly
be after him about, and that he
might have misunderstood the parties
whom he had heard talking and that
they might not have meant him at
all, but he rather thought that they
were talking about him.
He then wanted me to phone to
Wenatchee about 1t, but told him 1t
would be useless to do so, as we did
not know who to call for. Then he
wanted me to go to Wenatchee and
see about it, and he would pay my
expenses. but told him that would
also be useless as would not know
who to see.
then asked him If any papers Of
any kind had been served upon him.
to which he answered that no paper
Of any kind had been given him by
anyone, so I told him to pay no at
tention to what talk he had heard.
that 1t did not mean anything to him,
/ said il anything is wanted of you
there will be some papers of some
kind served upon you, and If any
papers should be served upon you
you will have ample time to look
after the matter, and you can go to
Wenatchee and consult an attorney
and show him your papers, or, IL you
desire me to attend to it, you can
come and see me, and bring the pa
pers with you.
He then sat in silence for a time,
and as if in a deep study. when he
arose and said, well, all right"
asked me what he owed me for my
advice, and I told him nothing--not
cent, ana he thanked me. babe me
good bye and left, since which had
not seen him or heard from him un-
til I saw the notice of his death in
the Daily World I write this simply
for everyone to draw their own con-
illusions (as / have myself) as to
his mental condition. I conclude
that his mind was troubled about
something, as he evidently had the
impression that If he heard any per-
sons talking at all, they were talking
about him.
