BODY AT KILBOURN
NOT YET RECOVERED

Neither the inducement of liberal
reward or the continued efforts of riv-
er experts have succeeded in finding
the body of Jos. P Quinn, who is sup
posed to have been drowned in the
Wisconsin river near Radlund's at Kill
bourn. Nothing has ever been found,
no trace revealed since that day four
| weeks ago, September 10, when he
left the Hile house to go down the
river alone in a skiff fishing, and later
his boat, empty except for his hat and
coat, was found in an eddy near Lone
Rock. There seems no reason to doubt
the fact that his body is somewhere in
the Wisconsin river. If he had wan
dered away under mental alteration
he would long ago have been identi-
have have attracted notice before he
could have gone a mile. There was
nothing in his manner or conduct that
leads the attendants and boarders at
the Hile house, who became greatly
attached to him, to believe other than
the theory Of his having fallen from
the boat and drowning. Experts in
river work hold to the opinion that
the body was washed into the mass
of snags, tree tops and wired posts
that cover the bottom of the eddies in
that locality. Instances are recalled
in which bodies have not been recov-
cred for four, five and eight weeks
The prominence of the man has caus,
ed more than ordinary interest, espe-
cially in his home city The Guardian
A Catholic paper published at Little
Rock, under date of October z, printed
a long eulogy, expressing the sympa-
thy of large circle of friends in that
city and st. Louis, giving a sketch of
his life and prominence in business.
He was born in South Carolina, and
lived in that state and Georgia until
1879, when he located in Little Rock.
There he was associated with three
brothers in the wholesale dry goods
business. He had retired from the
firm and become connected with big
New York firm and later with a ST..
Louis firm. The article in the Guar
dian pays a beautiful tribute to the
life and character Of the man.-Kil-

OLD BRANDENBURG
HOME PURCHASED
BY N. H. SMITH

The property on Fifth avenue which
has been the Brandenburg homestead
for nearly fifty years was sold on Sat-
urday to N H. Smith, who bought it
/ in a speculative spirit. It embraces
two lots, with the exception of nine
| feet off the east side, and two double
houses. The land was patented by
the government to Sank county in
| 1848, the year of Wisconsin statehood,
but the year before "H. Garfield,
agent" decided it to Charles o. Baxter
for $107; then it descended through
Fred c., William, and C. M. Patterson,
to D. K. Noyes (1854) and in 1856
came into the possession Of Herbert
| Huntington, who paid 1925 for the two
bare lots. He built the frame house,
and there, in 1859, his daughter was
married to William Stanley. She, now
a widow of many years, still is an hon
cred resident of Baraboo. She recalls
that the house scarcely was finished
at the time of the wedding. Hunting
ton sold in 1852 to John Dickie for
81 200, and Dickie, In 1867, to William
! Palmer for 81 1900 while the next year,
for $780, Palmer sold to his cousin,
Mrs Catherine F. Brandenburg, who
died there in 1914. Now, about dou-
bled in value, owing to double white
brick house erected twenty years ago,
it goes to Mr.. Smith.
Palmer, who lived on the place for
year, was rugged, conscientious
character who had come to Wiscon-
sin before the Civil War from Flush
ing, Ohio, where he was conspicuous
as an "agent" on the underground
railroad. over which slaves from Vir-
ginia, only thirty miles away, were
secretly, from house to house, usually
in the darkness of night, or hidden in
wagons, under straw, household furni-
ture, hay, wool or other coverings,
finally piloted to Lake Erie, and so on
over into Canada, to freedom The

Grafton of that region also we're earn
est abolitionists; and all roundabout
were "copperheads" (southern sympa-
thisers); so that the section seethed
with the conflicting sentiments which
soon found savage expression in war.
Palmer was a member of the Wiscon-
sin assembly in 1866, and died on
his farm near Loganville many years
ago. One of his sons, some forty years
since owned the Hopkins" farm at
| Devils Lake. A daughter, Mrs. Flor
| ence Bunker, lives at Reedsburg; an
| other at Flushing, Ohio.
| Mrs. Brandenburg resided in the
Fifth avenue place over IS years, and

legations, the route indicated
is becoming a thoroughfare of
steadily increasing impor-
tance. tits therefore a source
of satisfaction that the county
board of supervisors have
let it be known that they will
extend their aid in inaugura-
ting the work. This route is
a natural north and south
highway and with improve
ment would develop a great
increase of travel. It's ulti-

highway, down the river to

of those striving to bring
about the development of the
