discovered. However, some of the pas
sengers on the steamer informed the
guerillas that there was some federal
soldiers aboard and they were found
and taken ashore. One of them was a
mere boy, about is years of age and
his home was in Lexington. SO the
guerilla leader told him to get out Of
sight and let him get away. How
ever, the other three were lined up on
the bank and shot down by the band
its. The "Marcella" was then all
lowed to proceed.
Parted Forty-Five Years.
There is increased interest in this
occurrence when 1t is known that
Captain Atkins met Captain Marsh in
St Louis in 1880, and has not seen him
since that time until Saturday even
ing when Captain Marsh came down
from Washburn in reply TO telephone
call to come and visit with an old
friend" When Captain Atkins told Of
his capture by guerillas and also of
the misfortune that occurred to the
second boat which was captured by
the guerillas the same day, Captain
Marsh corroborated his story and
there was great deal of surprise
when 1t developed that he was mate
on the second boat. The guerillas who
were in the gang were some of Guam
trilPs band, the organization to which
young Jesse James belonged. In the
party were Mark Belt, Dave Pool. and
man by the name OF Martin who had
formerly been clerk in the employ of
Gillian & Mcdaniel, a Kansas civ
firm who bought negro slaves and
shipped them south to New Orleans.
Captain Atkins came to North Da-
kota in 1884 and settled at Cando
where he has continued to make his
home. He probably more than any
other man can tell of the thrilling en-
counters the old boatmen used to have
with warlike parties of the Sioux. He
has bullet in his possession which
was fired by a Sioux near the present
location of Fort Rice and which struck
him in the right side. He will remain
In Bismarck for several DAYS and II
is Captain Marsh's earnest wish that
he will be here long enough to "stand
watch with him on a trip from
Bismarck to Fort Benton SO that he
may see for himself the vast changes
that have taken place in the state
since those days Of the early CO.'S.
