climate, which would prove Of
enormous value to the State
Mr. Broussard has introduced

was SO years old. He had been ailing
for some months, and had been confined
to his bed nearly two months.
Freight Engineer Ed Keane, pulling
an extra freight through here on New
Years night, fell on the tender of his
engine while at this station and injured
himself so severely that he was unable
to proceed with the train. The engine
was cut loose from the train and the
injured man taken to Madison.
H Klinefelter and Howard Hoff-
man accompanied by Will Dewey and
John Wilson of Lake Mills captured
three good sized red foxes last Monday.
One was dug out of hole near the
east churches and two were dug out of
one hole near the west churches. None
of the animals were shot. Five hounds
assisted in the chase. The dogs were
given shifts, two and three being sent
out on the track while the others were
resting. This is favorable time for
catching foxes owing to the deep snow.

Mr. and Mrs Perry Saunders were
guests at Ormanzo Cottrell's over We'd
nesday night. They were en- route to
their home in Edgerton from Indepen-
dence, Iowa, where they have been Wis
iting.
Mrs Electa Saunders Bond, one of the
pioneers of this section, passed away at
the home of her nephew, Lew Boss, on
Wednesday evening, Dec 10Th. The
deceased was over eighty years of age
and had been i'll for long time. She
was born in Andover, New York. Her
father, Mr. Saunders, settled in this
vicinity many years ago, taking up a
grant of land from the government.
Last Thursday at twelve o'clock Mrs
Andrew Cullen, an old resident of Rock
county, pnssed away at her home in the
town of Harmony. Besides husband
she is survived by three children-Si-
mon F Cullen of Platteville and Sarah
Anna and John Cullen of Harmony. A
brother and two sisters, Mathew Smith
of South Dakota, Mrs Mary Ford of
the town of Porter, and Mrs McCor-
mick of Hutson, Mimi, are also left to
mourn her death. The funeral was held
Saturday morning at ten O'Clock from
ST .Mary's church and the remains in
tered in Mt Olivet cemetery.
After many weeks of suffering, Will
liam H Morgan, one of the old and re-
spected residents of this vicinity, pass
ed to the great beyond Sunday night,
January 2, 1910, at about 10 O'Clock,
aged 70 years, 9 months and 2 days.
Early last summer he suffered partial
stroke of paralysis, gradually failing in
health until the last few weeks OF his
life he was unable to leave his bed.
During his suffering he had the tender
and thoughtful care of mis- loving wife
and daughter and the deep solicitude OF
his sister, Mrs Ezra Goodrich, and all
that medical skill could do was done for
his relief. Major William H Morgan
was born in Danvers, Essex county,
Mass, on the 31st day of March, 1880,
and was son of Isaac P and Rebecca
G Morgan When lad of thirteen
years the family removed to Lowell,
Mass, and in the schools Of that city he
completed his education. When the
president issued his call for $4,000 vol
unteers to serve three years, acting
upon his patriotic impulse and love of
country, he responded to the call and
enlisted in the 7th Wisconsin Regiment
as a member of Company B. The reg
iment was mustered into the United
States service in the month of May,
1861, and was then drilled and prepared
for war and ordered to the front. Mr.
Morgan took part in the various battles
and skirmishes until the 18th day of
August, 1862, at the battle of Gains
vile, where he was wounded. Being
left on the field, he was taken prisoner
by the rebels but was subsequently
paroled.
