Old Cemetery Tale
Interests Members
Of Clemens Family

When the Times-Republican printed
on Dec. story OF an old. abandoned
cemetery in Marion township. it was
thought that some of the earlier set.
tiers would follow the tale with per-
sonal recollections of the olden days,
The first to mention to the paper how
interesting the story proved to him
was H. F. Clemens, OF this city. whose
father the late Archibald Clemens
once owned the Merrill farm. Now an
other brother, John Clemens, of Con-
rad, the oldest of the Clemens children
writes interestingly of his knowledge
of the Quin family and the old GENE
terry. Mr.. Clemens letter follows:
Editor Republicans: notice
that Henry Fields, OF Grinnell, was
very much impressed by some of your
recent editorials can also say You
recently called us back fifty-one years
in your sketch giving a history OF the
old cemetery on the Quin farm in
Marion township.
II was familiar with that old his
torical spot from 1854 up to 1880: since
then I do not remember of being In
that old abandoned cemetery.
James w Quin was my fathers
nearest neighbor from 1864 up to 1890,
the time he died. We have worked IN
the harvest field many a day with MT
Quin and he helped my father butcher
hogs on many occasions.
MIR. Quin had four other children
besides those mentioned in your
sketch. One was a son and one a
daughter by a former wife. This son
went to Texas at the beginning OF the
war between the north and south. and
never returned. This daughter mar
ried a man by the name OF Frank
Singer. She moved to Kansas about
1859 or 1870. Mrs. Singer returned
once, about the time of his father
death. The other two children not
m mentioned were Mary and Melinda
Mary was married to Henry Hulse and
Melinda became the wife OF Henry
Thomas. These two daughters died
a few years previous to their parents.
and where they were buried I do not
know. Mr. Thomas was in that local
ity not many years ago.
Mr. Quin was good. generous
neighbor He was an all-around man
carpenter mason. blacksmith. and
even an auctioneer in early days.
"Mr. and Mrs Reuben Lane, who
have the three small children buried
there, lived in Taylor township, two
miles north of your city. The children
all died of smallpox.
THE Vorises and Gordons lived on
the old Clemens farm previous to my
ia thers purchase of the place. Henry
Merrill bought the farm In 1899 of the
clemens heirs My father bought the
farm of Thomas R. Abel. of your city.
in December. 1868. paying about $4,000
for $50 acres.
''Mr. Quin knew at one time of every
person buried in the old cemetery. He
used to tell US there We're several men
who died in this western country with
out friends or homes who were buried
there Several of them We're put too
far to the north. and instead of being
on the Quin farm they were over on
what in later years was the Clemens
farm. We know this to have been
true. because in later years. when
blowing our shares would strike some
OF the stakes driven in the ground for
head markers There is no doubt but
there are many others buried there
whose graves have long been forgot

The biggest Santa Claus in North
America is coming to Marshalltown

AS he rides thru Main street he will
shake hands with the doctors and 'aw-
yers from their second story windows,
and look right into the second story

Five thousand kids who are look

to give Old Santissimo the rest of his
ride. If Santa likes his first ride on
the street car the street railway COM
