Blackhawk Tree, cottonwood of gi-
gantic size, was blown down in re-
cent storm, the Courier relates. The
history of the tree dated back to the
early settlement of Prairie du Chen.
Originally what is now the main part
of the city, was an island with a mar
row, shallow channel on the Wiscon-
sin side of the bluffs. Blackhawk
Tree at that time was stake driven
into the ground, to which boatmen
and voyageurs tied their craft. The
tree was named after Chief Black
Sparrow Hawk, the treacherous Sac,
following the battle of Bad AK, 80
miles north of the fort, when he and
$50 warriors, together with their fam
lilies, were either killed or taken
prisoners. Black Hawk was brought
to Pra. du Chen, then new Fort
Crawford, being captured on August
2, 1882. Confinement went hard on
the redskin chief and he failed fast.
Having many liberties, he one day
disappeared from the garrison and
hid in the tree for three days. The
tree got it's name through being the
temporary habitation of the famous
warrior. When engineers laid out
the first road in Crawford county in
1874, they used the tree to mark the
center of the thoroughfare from st.
Feriole slough to the mouth of Mon
dell coulee.

now state, of Washington. He died
out there.
George D. UT, whose farm adjoined
the farm of his brother, David, and
Thomas Bailie, tired of farming after
| many years of toll, and moved to Lam
caster and embarked in the grocery
business. This business did not seem
to be very profitable, and after several
years of lost time and money he re-
turned to the farm and again began
the pursuit of agriculture Mr. UT
enlisted in the cause of his country
| in 1862, and served with Co. H., 25th
| Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry. He
died on the old homestead farm
number of years ago.
| Washington Ellis was one of Gods
| noblest creations of man, honest and
| trustworthy, and respected by all who
| knew him. He came to this country
at an early date and it can be truth
| fully said that no better man ever trod
the soil of Grant county. He opened
/ up a farm on sec. 2, town 3, Potosi,
and continued to cultivate this farm
/ which had grown to large proportions
until about the year 1888, when i'll
health and failing eyesight compelled
| him to cease active work. His eye
sight failed him to the extent that he
| became totally blind. He fingered on
for number of years under the care
of his faithful old wife and died at a
ripe old age on the old homestead.
| James Harris, "Uncle Jimmie" as
he was known, was one of the early
ones who began farming north of
Rockville, but not on as large scale
as those heretofore mentioned. He
was liked by everyone for his honest
dealings in all business transactions.
He raised an interesting family of
boys and girls that were credit to
their parents. Following the death
of the parents the family broke up
and scattered to other parts. One
daughter, l believe, became the wife
of Richard Willis of Lancaster.
James Kendall, l think, was a son
of John Kendall who established a
| grist mill on Boice creek at an early
period. 1t was one of the first mills
of the kind in the country. James
began the pursuit of farming about a
mile north Of Rockville at an early
date and continued in that vocation
to the time of his last illness and
death. Jimmie, as he was generally
known, was a strictly honest man,
| highly respected by all who knew him.
He married a Miss Fuqua, sister of
the wife of Jacob Dawson, and sister
of Belknap Fuqua, the first soldier
from Potosi to give his life for his
country in the Civil war Mr.. and
Mrs. Kendall as far as | know had
three children, two sons, William and
! Charles, and dauhgter who became
the wife of Hamlin Hounsell. All are
now living in the far west. Mr. and
Mrs. Kendall lie buried in the Boice
Prairie cemetery in the town of Po-
! tosi.
Henry Uppena, whose name was
mentioned in my annals of Potosi, was
another farmer near Rockville who
settled in that locality at very early
date No doubt that much more could
be said about Rockville and its early
inhabitants but not being so we'll &C
quainted with it's early history as |
am with the history of Potosi, British
and Dutch Hollow, and with this
chapter will close my brief history of
Rockville. Some more will be writ
ten touching early times in Potosi
later on.

is only a question Of what the cut will
be. When the mills are opened, wage

feel right and are happy. IA some mills

shop plan. although | believe that N
many instances these manufacturers
will go back again and deal with the
union as 500 as business becomes good
and help scarce.
Wage reductions apply not only to
the textile industries but to The shoe
industries and in some cases to the
building industries. The Structural Iron
& Steel Workers union in Syracuse,
n. Y, have recently accepted Il wage
scale of a dollar an hour for all work.

whichever side may be to blame
are the one important factor prevent

be cut and all connected with industry

at 16 per cent below normal rs against

Wellesley Hills, Mass, June b
indicated several of the factors which
are responsible for the slowness OF
business recovery.
THE floods still continue to trouble
the southwest" said Mr., Rabson,
Nearly four million acres of land are
said to be submerged. This tends to
delay planting as we'll as to interfere
with transportation and general buying.
With the exception of this flood situ-
alton and the latenrss of spring. the
crops are coming along very well. A
little scare in the case of cotton will
DO no harm. Scares do not affect crops,
but only straighten prices and make
for business activity.
The four industries which are the
most active at the present time are the
building industries. railroad cqIioin'nt,
public works and automobile manufac-
turing. They are all indrs-r ies Of a
fundamental nature. Not only is devel-
opmeut Of these industries giving tenn
rorary employment, but they provide
permanent and productive capital for
the country. This is especially true in
the first three instances; hulit.l., rail
road equipment, and public works.
Very hopeful reports come from the
Michigan district. Mines which have not
been opened for a year or we are now
running on full time Thousands of men
in the mining sections are now going
back to work. and the whole Michigan
district looks more prosperous. Al
though the copper situation is still very
flat, it is like II man flat on his back.
There is only one way he can look
and that is upward Michigan during
the next two years is apt To be a very
busy state.
The mill situation in New England
is upset. Thousands Of people .irc still
out on strikes. Although both sides
claim decided advantages. statistics are
