River Makes and Unmakes

so that the main channel is never the
same for very long at a time.
suppose that years ago when you
went to Missouri you bought farm
on the banks of the Missouri river and
spent the next is or 20 years in clear
ing the land and bringing II into
high state of cultivation. And then
suppose that Just when you had begun
to derive some benefit from your
years OF toll the river should suddenly
reach out and swallow up about half
of your farm, Then suppose that the
river after keeping your farm for
several years. should grow seemingly
repentant and replace your farm. you
would no doubt feel that all the land
within the bounds mentioned in your
deeds was your own as much as it ever
was
But all that would depend on the
precise manner in which the river re
placed your land That IL where the
accretion law OF Missouri comes in,
and 1t is a fearful and mysterious
thing. IL the river in putting your
land back began piling against your
bank and continued to do so the land
to the waters edge would be yours.
oven II il went beyond your original
boundaries. But IL the river, as 1t
often does, should frst throw up bar
out in the channel and then gradually
fill UP the space between that and your
land until finally the current changed
and left the island thus formed Joined
to your land. you would have no claim
to any land thus formed. It would be-
long to the county. and could be sur
voyed and sold to the highest bidder
and the money IT brought would go TO
the school fund.
In Holt county, Missouri. there was
not so long ago a great deal of excite
ment caused by tho dispute over the
possession of some of the land thus
formed. commonly known as bar
land"
Several men had fenced land which
was claimed under deed by one John
C. Hinkle, a civil war veteran, who had
lived on this very land for a period
of SO years. Years after he had taken
possession the river claimed 500 acres
of Mr.. Hinkle's land and afterward
put II back as bar.
Mr.. Hinkle claimed the land on the
ground that the bar had made to his
land. and the other men claimed 1t on
the ground that 1t had been put back as
an island. which finally joined Mr..
Hinkles land. and was, therefore, as
much theirs as any ones else. The
court upheld the sduatters' claim that
the land did not belong TO Mr.. Hinkle.
and this decision was the signal for
sauatters 10 rush in and seize the bar
land all along the river front
Tho fact of possession seemed to he
given considerable weight in this mat
ter, and the land was generally seized
in the night. A sauatter would select

Sometimes. on such occasions. two

these conditions have given rise to
several exciting encounters. Several
houses have been torn down. many
fences cut to pieces. and in at least
one instance men have been escorted
from the land of their choice at the
point OF a rife. with instructions To
get out and not return. While no
blood has been shed it is freely pre-
