Balls Bluff Home OF Crime.
In the early history of Andalusia,
and in the days / have spoken of as
my visit in 1853, that high point of
land west of the village, then and
now known as Balls Bluff, was a no
torious place and had a very bad repu-
tation. l will recall many instances
related to me by both my father and
mother concerning the supposed crimes
committed, which both history and
tradition fixed at that point. In 1853,
and on the extreme point of that bluff
was located a deserted, decayed and
dilapidated log cabin; it was avoided
and Stunned by all on account Of its
unsavory reputation. AS late as 1854,
no one knew when this cabin was
erected or who built ii. II was then,
as it was many years subsequent TO
that date, truth, that II one wished
to get back to the primeval and abor-
iginal condition OF this country there
was no place in Illinois,. so far as am
advised, where one could 20 TO with
greater assurance of success, than the
immediate country surrounding Balls
Bluff.
The view from that point is one OF
the most picturesque and magnificent
in this country; from its summit you
have a clear view of the surrounding
country and of the Mississippi river,
clear up as far as Fort Armstrong.
And now, my friends, the propriety
of the occasion, as well as the ex-
haustion of your patience and my own
strength. admonishes me II is time I
should cease trespassing upon your pro
gram or your time. / thank you for
/ your kind invitation to address you,
and, dec valante, upon some future oc-
casion, should you desire It, and my
health and strength permit, win.

stirred by Mormon Troubles.
Speaking of John Long and Nauvoo
brings to mind the Mormon troubles
in this state, and which greatly stirred
Andalusia in those days. This portion
of the state, now known as Rock ISL
and county, formerly comprised part
of Pike county and later a part of 10
Daviess county. Galena, then the
head of navigation and the lead mines,
was at one end of what was known
as the Mormon Trail and which
passed through Andalusia and on south
Hancock county This whole territory
in early days was overrun with horse
and cattle thieves and other despera-
does which it was currently reported
and reputed had their rendezvous at
Nauvoo, and the state government de-
termined to break up the band. The
incidents 81 pert lining to the depred
tons of property and the crimes
against persons together with the
prosecution of the Mormons was the
table talk in Andalusia and elsewhere
during my early recollections of Anda-
lusia. One humorous incident relating
to the trial Of Joseph Smith at Spring
field, and the telling of which has
caused many hearty laugh over
dinner table in the early days at Anda-
lusia is, l think, worthy of heing pre-
served in the archives of your Enciety
and will be of interest to those who m
future years may have occasion to
search the record you are now so in
dustriously and commercially making.
l relate it to you as it was told to
me in my boyhood days in Andalusia:
The self-asserted minister plenopo-
Tertiary and extraordinary from the
court of st. Peter-Joseph Smith-was
being put upon his trial at Springfield
in Sangamon county, on the charge of
violating the laws of the state, and
one Robinson. a prominent lawyer
from, l believe, either Cass or Adams
counties was retained to defend him.
The trial created a great sensation, by
reason of the prominence of the de-
PENDANT, and the religious question
supposed to be involved, as many of
his followers, and they were numer-
Gus, believed him to be a prophet of
the Lord who was being prosecuted,
and the court house at Springfield was
taxed to its full capacity to hold and
accommodate the people who attended
the trial: they filled the benches. The
aisles, the clerks and sheriff's spaces,
and many of the fair sex graced the
occasion with their presence; as all
could not be accommodated with seats
on the benches several ladies were in
vited to and did occupy chairs and
seats on either side of the judge on
his elevated platform at one end CT
the court room.
Judge Nathaniel Pope-a great law
yer by the .way-was the presiding
Judge After the sheriff had made the
usual proclamation, and the case was
called, and amidst breathless silence,
Judge Robinson arose and thus adj
dressed the court: May it please this

old brick store to where the church
now is or once was, at the foot of the
hill; there were, also, many large
shell-bark hickory trees where the
Aaron Thompson house is and where
the Bethuram home was and north of
it to the alley. There were two roads.
one through this timber and CORE
spending with the main street now,
and the other bride path west of it
which skirted the growth of timber
along the creek to the west of town
and it crossed that creek about 100 feet
north of where it does now by a ford.
Between these two roads was prairie
and slough, and there was a large pond
in the low lands in the southwest part
of the town, as well as two large ponds
east of the James Hill place. The only
other highway was known as the
fancy creek road, that crossed the
creek about 10 rods north of the pres
ent bridge by ford and then passed
diagonally down and on the ridge and
crossed the creek by a ford just east
of the William Smith house; all that
ground now occupied by this road was
then thick, heavy timber and about
two-thirds of the Boney farm was
prairie and in the center was lake of
about 20 acres grown up with weeds
and cattails. There is a slight impress
sion on my mind that there was some
sort of store in the village at that
time, but of this am not certain.
well remember that upon this visit
with my mother we walked to Anda-
lusia from Buffalo Prairie and back
again, and to induce me to do so she
purchased a Barlow Jack knife, which
was my first possession in that line
I know l lost it and remember she and
hunting for it there by James Hills
place; it was all prairie there then.
Recalls Davenport Murder.
About noon on the 4th DAY of July,
1845, a most atrocious homicide was
committed on the island of Rock Isl
and; this is known in history as the
murder of Colonel Davenport. Anda-
lusia has a slight connection with that
historical event. In. this village on
that night, while my father was living
in log cabin and keeping batch, he
entertained, unawares, John Long
fresh from the homicide and one OF
the murderers of Colonel Davenport
On that day and late in the evening
having escaped the vigilance of the
posse comitatis, which had been
searching all the afternoon and even
ing of that day for the perpetrators OF
that foul homicide, Long came to the
cabin and begged a lodging for the
night. He was, evidently, on his way
to the Mormon settlement at Nauvoo
He was a stranger to father and, as
was the custom in those days, was
taken in and cared for. Father had
not heard of the murder and, of course
had no suspicious Long left the next
morning very early and very suddenly
and to repay for his hospitable enter
tainment, he stole fathers watch-a
keepsake from his sister in England
Father and some others Immediately
organized a party and started in pur
suit of him, but lost all trail in the
breaks and wilderness of the head
waters of Coal creek. At the trial and
execution of Long at Rock Island

He Wants Revenge.

sons wounded and a prisoner here.
John j. Deitz, the outlaw of Cameron

In revenge for the attack on

He is accused of shooting a man

Today he was partly surrounded in

Despite their dislike of Deitz, citi-

Individual aud Corporate Taxes.

a fight is being made to get the
tax assessments OF the railroads raised
in Virginia. The present taxable val
cation of S16.Co0 a mile is declared
on the one hand to be too low. but
the argument is made on the othe,
hand that the State Corporation Com
mission should consider the ability OF
the railroads TO paw.
That fact should lie considered in
the tax problem. but il ought to be
considered when the tax laws are
made. Once made. these laws must
be evenly executed or they are the
means of injustice. Does the assessor
or real estate consider the ability of
the individual property owner to pay
the tax? Take a man owning n va
cant lot which brings him nothing
IS he taxed on his ability to raise the
tax from the income, the land gives
him?
The truth is that the Virginia tax
rate generally ought to be much
lower than at present, and the assess
ment should be made on the fair
value of all property, individual and
corporate.-Norfolk Landmark.
