that they are being crowded with work

they have had time to prepare, new
papers and start, or try to start, new

state will demand that the case be

with relatives in Grundy county. east
of here Mrs. KONG has had a remark
able history. Not many men or women
now living have witnessed more heart
rending scenes than has this quite little
woman OF German ancestry.
In 1862 she. with her fathers family,
was a resident Of New Ulm. living on
farm near the town. Out of a family
of eight she is the only one who
escaped with her life. the remaining
members either being butchered by the
Indians in that bloody massacre or
scalped in the presence of their kin.
Mrs. KONG then mere girl. was some-
how taken fancy to by different mem
bers Of the tribe, and this reason
she ascribes as the only one for her be-
ing now alive.
In relating the circumstances relative
to the killing Of her family, Mrs KONG
says that the onslaught took place dur
ing the night. The family had for days
noticed the Indians near the town and
had been warned to go into the village
where better protection could be given.
Her father tho for some reason be-
leved that the Indians were his friends
and that no harm would come to him
or his. One night the red skins crept
up on the residence and without warn
ing killed the entire family except one
little girl. now Mrs. KONG. whom they
took with them to their wigwam and
endeavored to rear as one Of their own
children.

War and Indian War" published by

captors one day and after remaining in
hiding for days in wheat and oat fields.
finally ventured into a town about 100
miles from New Ulm and was later
taken to the home of an uncle in Man
kato, who educated the girl as one OF
his own children. While wildly re-
membering the exciting experiences OF
her sirlhood it seems some times. Mrs.
KONG says. as dream and that she
could again see her family and girlhood
home in the New Tim neighborhood.
Last summer Mrs. KONG visited the
spot where her family with other neigh
bors paid the penalty Of the red mans
vengeance, the first time she says she
has ever had the courage to 20 near
the spot where the awful toll OF human
life took place.
