Of Boyhood Days
Shullsburg, Wisconsin,,
March 80, 1915.

March 80, 1915.
Editor Red Cloud Chief:
In looking over some old letters the
other day, came across one from my
old friend, Henry Gillian, which Ire
ceived nearly forty years ago, In which
he mentioned some of his experiences,
such as building shacks, fighting fires,
etc, out on the Nebraska prairies-
quite. a change for Henry from q luc.
,rative position in our high school, to
star ting from the stump in building a
home out on the edge of civilization.
From reading the .newsy columnst of
the Red Cloud Chief, l can form ~ good
idea Of your bustline,little city. ., Lean
picture in, fancy, Red Clouds broad
BUSINESS st seets, she- fine residences
with autos' lining the curb, ready for
the owners To take a pleasure ride. l
see your magnificent court house. but
best and grandest OF all Is your High
School and AM glad to know that
you have selected the best man in your
city as the president of your board of
education.
But fancy paints me another pic' ure.
TIE great blessing the present gsper-
alton enjoys were purchased at the
price of great privations for many of
these pioneer settlers, like the Gil.
hams, Mrs Bessie Richardson, who
was formerly Shullsburg girl, and
many others, had come from homes of
comfort to stand the rigors of west
ern climate in sod shacks, dugouts or
other improvised homes, the chief
mode OF travel the slow OK team, al
most entirely deprived Of church and
school privileges and struggling on
year after year, always improving, al.
ways advancing, until on the once
trackless praiIies has arisen a beauti-
full city, a monument to the energy,
thrift and high ideals of those sturdy
sous of toll
Sometimes rs sit half doing in my
easy chair, l fail into reminiscent
mood. Memory carries me back to my
boyhood days, wnen l roamed over
these hills with the Gillian boys, or
met with them in day school or Sun
day school. Jim and were in tie
same Sunday School class taught by
his uncle, William Oates. We were
large class of boys and had arrived
at the smart age when boys want 10
break away from al religious restraint
but through the kindness, patience
and tact of our teacher we were held
in check. truly believe that the in
fluence of such a grand christian char
acter has shone out for that class OF
boys as a beacon light In their voyage
on life's troubled sea. Fifty years has
changed that class of boys to old men,
W ,ich suggests some lines Of an ,ll
