cases, which will be tried, is the will

There were some sixty friends pres

a few well chosen words, presented
Mr.. and Mrs. Biggs with beautiful

spent in conversation and a general

MISS WARNER TAKES VACATION

ment.
At meeting on Monday night the
school board passed a resolution, in
which they instructed the teachers on
the opening of school since the quar-.
antine, to keep strict watch over
the pupils in order to avoid any risk
|of children suffering with any con-
|tagious diseases from attending school.
We think, however, there is no dan
ger, inasmuch as the epidemic, which
prevailed here for short time few
weeks ago, is entirely stamped out,
and it is safe to say that there are not
more than one or two cases of scarlet
fever left in the community. The
authorities are to be congratulated on
the prompt action adopted when dan
ger was threatened and the success
of their efforts in handling the situa-
ton.
A few are chatting under the thirty
five day limit placed by the school
board. We approve of this rule as it
practically removes any danger from
persons who are released from quar-
antine too soon, as may sometimes be
the case under the present laws. Miss
Grace Warner, domestic science teach
er. is compelled to take long vaca-
ton on account of this thirty-five day
limit. She was pronounced well and
released from quarantine week ago,
but will not be allowed to enter school
for two weeks more. The teachers are
not relaxing their watchfulness and
with the cooperation of the parents it
seems as though we need not expect
any new cases.

JOHN KELLY CALLED
BY DEATH ANGEL
4 Resident Of Crawford County Since
1869, Answers the Death Sum-
mons Tuesday Morning.
GENTLEMAN HIGHLY RESPECTED
Large Circle Of Friends Attend Fun
eraI, Which Was Held Today
From Catholic Church.

In the list of prominent people of
Denison who have answered the call
of death during the last three months
is that of John Kelly, who died on
Tuesday morning, March 21st.
Mr.. Kelly was born in 1889, in
County Glare, Ireland, and came to
Canada when seven years old, and
from there went to St. Louis and later
to Scott county, Iowa, where he was
married to Bridget Rasp. In 1869 he
came to Crawford county, where he
resided until the time of his death.
Mr.. Kelly had a family of seven
children, three boys and four girls, the
names of his children being as fol-
lows: Thomas j., of Denison; NJ. j., of
Carroll; Henry, of Rapid City, S. D.;
Margaret, now Mrs. Alfred Wright, of
Denison; Mary and Kate, of Rapid
City, S. d., and Mrs.. Mae Gentry, of
Red Owl, S. D. Mrs. Kelly, the wife
of the deceased, departed this life
several years ago. His children all
survive him.
Mr.. Kelly was man who enjoyed
the respect and confidence of every
person whose privilege it was to
know him. He was familiar figure
in Denison, and rarely day passed
but what he was seen upon the street
visiting his friends. His illness was
of short duration and his death was
a surprise, even to many Of those
who knew him best. Denison will not
soon forget his kindly face and cheer
full disposition.
The funeral services were held at
the st. Rose of Lima church at ten
o'clock this forenoon, the Rev. Father
Farrelly officiating. The large con-
gregation at the church was made up
of friends of the deceased. After the
services the body was taken to the
Catholic cemetery for burial.
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1911-03-22

charge that he, by false pretenses, in
duced them to sign away their rights
to a half-secti0n of land, and they
now seek to have the deed set aside.
They do not mention the fact that
several years before this deed was ex-
ecuted they had decided this same
property to Mr.. Patterson and re-
.ceived a consideration for it. The
facts will be fully discovered on the
trial.
Another case, which is attracting
some attention, is that of Thomas
Meehan, trustee in bankruptcy of the
John Pervitz estate, against C. T.
Marshall, of Charter Oak. It is al
legged in the petition that Marshall
was mixed up in some way in the pur-
chase of property belonging to the
bankrupt, and that his connection
with the purchase of the property was
such that his title to the property
acquired should be set aside and he
should be made to account for the
value of it.
The probate of the J. B. Romans
will is contested by his daughter,
Dollie, who has not resided here for
nine years. This contest will prove
stubborn one and will come on for
trial at the coming term of court.
Another case, which will probably
be disposed of, is that of Fienne, ad-
ministrator of the state of William
Kunze, against the Milwaukee Rail-
road company. This is an action for
damages brought against the railroad
company, charging it with the respon-
sibility for the death of Mr. Kunze.
There are several divorce cases
that will probably be disposed of dur
ing the term, and it is expected that
a large amount of business will be
transacted before the final adjourn
ment OF court.

LOUIS ROMANS
Very Large Attendance at N. z.
Church, Where Funeral Was Held
MANY from Out Of Town.
WAS A MOST EsTlMAsLE LADY
An Account of Her Death Taken From
Los Angeles Paper, Written
by Dear Friend Of Hers.

Brief mention was made in last
weeks issue of The Review of the
death of Minerva A. Howland- Romans,
which occurred at Los Angeles, Cali,
on the tenth inst. at the home of S.
J. Arthur, a friend of the Romans fam
lily, where Mr.. and Mrs. Romans were
making social call at the time she
received stroke of apoplexy, which,
a few hours later, caused her death.
The deceased was born July TO-,
1859, in Polk county. Iowa, the name
of her parents being Charles A. and
Sarah Howland. She moved with her
parents to Harrison county in 1874,
where, about two years afterwards,
she was united in marriage to Louis
Romans, who survives her. As re-
suit of this union seven children were
born, whose names and residences are
as follows: Alvon Roscoe, Louis
Brown, Bertha E., Guy E. and Robert
Melvin, of Denison, Iowa; Clayton G.,
of Charter Oak, and Edna NJ, now
Mrs. Milligan, of Sioux City.
Mrs. Romans united with the Meth
odist Episcopal church when about
sixteen years of age, and continued
faithful member of the same until
called to the church triumphant. She
was not only a member of the church,
but faithful and capable worker, be-
ing at the time of her death mem
ber of the Foreign Missionary society
and the Home Missionary society and
a life member of the latter society. In
addition, she held the appointment of
sacramental steward in the church.
Mrs. Romans was a woman of kind
ly disposition, loving wife and de-
voted mother and enjoyed the friend
ship of the entire community, not only
here but at Charter Oak. where she
lived before coming here, and in Har-
rison county, where she lived during
her girlhood.
Funeral services were held in Los
Angeles before bringing the body to
Denison, an account of which, written
by Sunshine Gelvin, dear friend of
hers, will be read with interest by
all who knew Mrs. Romans. The fun
eral services at Denison after the ar
rival of the body were held at the
Firct MathOdict EniccOnal chnrch on
Friday, the 10th inst, at three D. m,

the Rev. j. H. Senseney officiating
There was large attendance of Den.
ison and Charter Oak friends at the
funeral, the services being especially
sad in view of the loss of this woman
who was so we'll and favorably known
and whose death had not been antici-
pated. Rev. Senseney, in his remarks,
eulogized the deceased for her chris
tian character, her work and influence
in the church and the interest which
she manifested in the promotion of
every movement for the public good.
Her death was distinct loss, not only
to her family and the church to which
she belonged, but to the community in
which she lived. The pail bearers
were: c. L. Voss, w. c. Rollins, w. E.
Terry, o. M. Criswell, Charles Merrill
and w. r. Temple. After the funeral
services the body was taken to Oak
land cemetery for burial.
The Review expresses it's sympathy
with the husband and children of the
deceased in this their great bereave-
ment.
A number of letters have been re-
ceived in Denison since the death of
Mrs. Romans, written by her admir-
ing friends in California, all of which
pay the highest tribute to the life and
virtues of the deceased. An account
of the funeral services held in Los
Angeles follows:
'We. thought the relatives and
friends of our late beloved friend,
Mrs. Lou Romans, would be pleased to
know of the beautiful funeral service
which was held in the sunny south
land.

MRS. Romans came to Los Angeles
together with her husband and son,
Guy, when the year was yet young, to
spend few months in this delightful
climate.
"She was a great lover of nature
and here in this beautiful land amidst
the magnificent palms and ever-bloom-
ing flowers, where one can pass from
the snow-capped mountains, down
through the orange groves and on to
the beach, she reveled like queen
at a feast, until the stern Reaper we
call Death, called suddenly for her.

FINDS RELIC OF EXPLORER
Stone Found on Sanke River Bears
Mark "Clark 18OE'

Idaho Falls, Sept. I'm. D. yea.
man, a pioneer of the Swan valley
country, 60 miles east of here and
near the headwaters Of the Snake
river, has brought to Idaho Falls a
stone bearing the inscription, CLARK
1906" The stone was found recent
ly by son of Mr.. Yeaman, who was
blowing on his fathers farm on the
south bank of the river. The stone
had become covered with several in
ches Of river wash and is much wea-
ther beaten. The lettering is quite
distinct, though much worn. The
point of the pillow cut a deep cash in
the stone, but did not injure the let
tering.
1t is the opinion of local historians
that the stone was left where it was
found, by Clark, Of the Lewis and
Clark expedition, on his exploring
tour made across that section of Ida
no in the year 1905. The stone is
of great age and the lettering being
also very old bears out this theory :.
Mr.. Yeaman will leave the stone
here for some time and will then
loan it to the Idaho State
Historical society to be put with the
collection at Boise.

Interesting Historical Question Rails.
ed by Discovery of Pathfinder's
Marks
(Statesman)


A few days ago the Statesman re-
printed an article telling of the find
ing by M. D. Yeaman, of stone in
scribed CLARK 1906" This calls on,
letter from DR.. s. D. Calonge, o.
Nampa, in which he tells of finding
a similar stone, and incidently raises
a question of deep interest to the
historians. DR.. Calonge writes as
follows:
Boise Statesman. Gentlemen
Noting today the article pertaining to
the finding of a stone marked Clark
1906 by M. D.; Yeaman, ON the
south fork of Snake river, l wish to
add that I,have in my possession a.
similarly marked stone, CLARK 1906
picked UP by me about five miles
below Yeaman's rach on the ranch
of j. Daniels of Irwin, Ida, in 1902.
This stone and Mr.. Yeaman's find
seem absolute proof that Clark ex-
plored the region Of the south fork,
though historians map the, route as
north Of this point. s7a 't

THAT INSCRIBED STONE

| Articles have been going tn,
rounds of the press the past few
weeks, indicating that stone mark
ed Clarke 1905" had been found il
Swan valley. east of Idaho Falls, in
dicating that Clarke had come thai
way in 1905, and to those who have
studied the history of that expedition
there is an air of mystery about it.
DR.. w. w. Van Dusen, of Boise,
is one of the best authorities on the
matter, having devoted great deal
of study to the records of the expedi-
tion pertaining to the trip through
Montana and Idaho, and we sent an
inquiry to him regarding the posi-
bility of Clarke, or members of the
party, having been as far south as
Swan valley, and received the fol-
lowing reply:
Boise, Idaho, Sept. Is, 1911.
"Mr. Byrd TT go,
"Blackfoot, Idaho.
II am sorry I cannot give positive
incarnation on the subject. There is
nothing in books l have to indicate
that Lewis or Clarke came as far
south as Snake river valley, nor can
/ prove that some scouts of the party
did not. All the facts indicate that
in the westward trip, 1SO4-5, none
of the party came south OF Red Rock,
Mont. On the return trip, 1906, they
broke up into several parties, but
maintained two general parties,
and under the command of each lead
err, Lewis and Clarke, and it is pos
sible that small detachment of one.
or them may have gotten into Swan
valley, but it Is very doubtful. On5I
the westward trip, all parties after
having spent a month or more in !
western Montana and in Idaho near
the Salmon and Lemhi waters, Ger
tainly descended into Clearwater, and
about October II, 1905, reached the
present site of Lewiston, and this
appears to have been their first touch
Of the Snake river. At Salmon, this
of the Lemhi and Salmon
'ivers, Captain Clarke named the uni
led river after his colleague, and so
The name of Lewis afterwards was
attached to the whole of Snake river
Is at the time Clarke supposed the
salmon and the Snake were the
'ame.
