|LATE MRS. PAULS0N ONE OF few SURVIVORS

co. brought to mind the awful days
in August in 1862 when a murderous
band OF Sioux Indians whose lust for
blood and loot had been let loose by
the great massacre along the Mime
sofa river three days before, came TO
the outlying western settlements Of
Monongalia county and murdered
thirteen men, women and children in
the peaceable West Lake settlement.
The settlers there had attended SWed-
ish Lutheran services at the Lunborg
cabin in which the late Mrs. Paulson
was a fourteen-year-old girl at the
time. Her three brothers, Anders Pet
ter, aged 25; Gustaf, aged %, and
Lars, aged %; were all killed by the
Indians, and her brother Samuel, ag-
ed eleven was severely wounded. Two
Broberg families lived about two
miles west of the LundbOrg cabin.
While the services spoken of were on
at the Paulson cabin one Of the Bro
berg children came running and told
that the Indians had come to the Bro
berg cabins and were acting naughty.
The Lundborg boys ran there first
and were taken off their guard and
killed by the Indians who later met
the elder people coming by OK team
from the meeting and massacred them
on the road. The two families of A.
P. Broberg and Daniel Broberg we're
nearly entirely wiped out, there re-
naming only one child of each, who
had narrow escapes. The story OF
these stirring times is fully recorded
in the History of Kandiyohi County,
published and sold by The Tribune
Printing Company. Mrs. Paulson
carried the memory of this frightful
massacre very wildly, and always
was ready to tell Of it to visitors.
