GIVES SOME OF THE HISTORY or
Il. THE AVER FAMILY, s5.i

The White Earth Tomahawk has the
following to say about Lyman Aver CT
Belle Prairie who was there last week
tracing title to script land as stated in
q recent issue of the Herald: f.
Mr.. Aver has the distinction of be-
ing the first white child born in what
is now the State of Minnesota. HIS
parents came as missionaries to the
territory of Wisconsin. and Mr..
Lyman Aver was born at Pokagoma
Lake near Lake St. Croix. Wien he
was six years old his parents moved to
Red Lake and remained there until he
was about sixteen years OLD. Mr.; Aver
learned the native tongue and spoke 1t
still more huently than his mother
tongue. the latter being employed only
when in conversation with his parents.
He has never forgotten the former,
and while here, he astonished the ma
tlves by his perfect command of the
Chippewa tongue. HIS parents were
first engaged while in their unmarried
days. in teaching at the Mackinaw
Congregational Mission School, and
while there were instructors for the
father and mother of the editor of The
Tomahawk. In later years they con:
Quoted an academy at Belle Prairie,
Mimi, and the two elder brothers of
the editor attended that.
In after years anS after the death OF
her husband Mrs. Aver taught school
at Crow Wing and the remainder ii
the Beaulieu family of the second
generation became nor pupils, also q
little daughter of the late Capt. Beau.
lieu one OF her Belle Prairie pupils,
thus Mrs. Ayers had the rare ex.
perlence of teaching three generations
in one family. Mr.. Lyman Aver beart
mis- years we'll, is hale and hearty
both mentally and physically.
In his visit here he met quite q
number of his mothers pupils of the
second generation, and other Ole
acquaintances, all of whom we're glad
to see him.
