We remember so we'll this youngest
child OF Rosegill. Mrs. Sarah TayIoe
(Wormeley- Nicholson) Perrin. Her first
days had the blessing Of luxury and
the freedom of magnificent estate.
Her first welded home was at Deer
chase, when she was Mrs. Nicholson;
her last home was Goshen. In Glou-
cester. AT all three OF her homes there
were lovely gardens, greensward and
trees-a life near to nature made her
strong Of body and of character--and
her memory is kept green and haliow-
ed even to this day. Her grace at
meals was brief but forcible. 1t con-
sisted of two short words. One day a
vigorous young gentleman zane in
about dinner time--indeed, Mrs. Perrin
was standing at the head OF her table.
\ Have you had dinner. Mr.. Joncs?''
she asked. Mr.. Jones had dined. She
lowered her head fervently and said
! THANK God"
\ A peculiar fact about some OF the
early and most conspicuous virginians
Is that they began with very small
families, perhaps with an only son
like Byrd. Berkeley, Wormeley and
others. and then spread out into q
numerous progeny, gradually decreas-
ing until a childless marriage and ar
heir who did not marry and died witt
no single heir. but many collatera
heirs, and in consequences the mansion
was sold for division.
Rosegill remained In the family for
nearly 200 years, which Is long ten
ancy for our country; but when one
sees 1t, 1t seems pity that 1t ever
went astray, but childless master cut
its anchor line. Middlesex certainly
took the palm for early Colonial cul-
ture and a distinct dignity and luxury
of life.
There were only about a dozen great

Especial TO The Herald Republican
Logan, April 22.-There was another
quite severe frost here last night, but
investigation shows that it has not
hurt the apple blossoms, and apples are
the only fruit crop of much CONNER
cial value that is raised here, except
berries. Most of the pears and sweet
cherries have been badly nipped and
all the very early Strawberries are
gone. The Cache County Fruit Grow
ers' association made an effort TO in
troduce the smudge pot, but have not
been very successful. About 500 Of the
oil pots were shipped in here, but they
have not been put in readiness for Op-
Grafton. Next year they will probably
be used quite generally.

CRUEL MURDERB BY
INDIANS RECALLED
Salt Lake Woman Trying to
Collect Damages for Depre-
dationS of Navajos.
Especial 10 The Herald-Republican.)

Especial TO The Herald Republican,
Moab. April 22.-Mrs. FL =. DALEY of
Salt Lake, accOmps nied by United
States Attorney John Stunsbu-y, passed
through Moab, today, en- route To San
Juan county to take dispositions in the
case of Barton VS.. the United States.
The Barton claim is for $4,000, and
has been pending for over twenty
years. 1t is brought under the Indian
DepredatiOns act of 1891. The claim
grew out of the killing of Amasa Bar
ton, who at that time was the husband
of Mrs. Daley, by the Navajo Indians
in 1887. AT the time of the killing it
is estimated that the Indians destroyed
property belonging to the Barton es-
tate TO the value of the claim
Barton was a trader and kept post
eight miles below Bluff, where he lived
with his wife and two babies. The
Indians became enraged at him and
threw a rope around his neck and
dragged him out of his store and shot
him. He lived three days after the
shooting. Mrs. Barton. alone and un-
armed and by the sheer force of Will,
drove the Indians away from her
wounded husband and kept them from
destroying the stores until Ute In
dian could be sent to Bluff for help.
The Navajoes later destroyed all of the
Barton property. Mrs. Daley has been
fighting her claim through for the past
twenty years and now seems In fair
way TO have 1T allowed.
Attorney Stansbury Will also take
dispositions, while he is in San Juan
county, in the case of F. B. Hammond
wolves $1,935 and has been pending
since 1891. The claim is for cattle and
horses stolen by the Indian wards OF
the federal government.
