the way for Cromwelfs success.
| The picture unfolds a story which.
even without its historic background
would be tremendously fascinating
entertainment. The Fighting Blade.
is the only story of the Cromwellian
era which has ever been filmed and.
incidentally, the producers have taken
no liberties in matters of detail and
the student of history will find no
anachronisms in the production. The
settings, the costuI les, the furnishings.
the manners and customs were repro
duced only after the most thorough
and diligent research had been under
taken.
The current Palace prosraE also
features Oscar Maestro, the celebrated
'eellist, who will appear in joint re-
cital at each de luxe performance with
Rita DE Simone, famous Italian dra-
matte soprano. These two artists have
received extraordinarily flattering
criticisms in Europe, South America
and the United States. They will of

Frank Borzage has come nearer TO

lect since that memorable screen clas-
sic.
Children of Dust" with its living
characters is truly a page from the
book of life. 1t is human story
OF humen people with a human back

ger has rival in Harvey RAYMOND.
another child of wealth. Old Archer.
caretaker of Gramercy Park. plays an
important and sympathetic part in the
romance. The story opens with sew
eral childhood incidents which have
vital bearing on the tale, but most
OF the action takes place twelve years
later after Terwilliger has realized his
bOyhOod ambition of owning and oper-
ating the "Terwilliger Express Com.
-pany."
The picture literally throbs with
acton: comedy and the usefulness

(By Judge Wilmott)
(By Judge Wilmott]

Mr. Coons passed away two or three
years thereafter. Two sons and one
daughter, Henry, Samuel and Eliza,
continued to keep house after the par
ents died, until all got married and
drifted apart. Near the Coons house
was a frame building erected by 4
man named William Harker, the first
cabinet maker and undertaken in Po-
tosi. He committed suicide in the
early f1fties by hanging himself from
ladder in his shop. Matthias Es-
linger, an employee, succeeded Harker
in the business. Eslinger built a
frame dwelling near the shop. He
married a daughter of Phillip Gross,
in Dutch Hollow, who died at young
age leaving him with a baby daugh-
ter. He then married Mary OFT, the
daughter of JOS OFT, and they lived
in this house and raised large fam
lily. They subsequently removed to
Dubuque where Mr.. Eslinger died q
few years ago at an advanced age.
Theodore Runkell, some few years
ago, purchased the Eslinger house
and moved it to the large lot across
the street. He made many improve
ments to the house and it now stands
an ornament to the street. A barn is
now on the site of the building re-
moved. Adjoining the original Els
linger house there was log building
known as the Phillip Mcmahon house.
1t was presumably built by him in
very early days.
The Coons house, Harker shop, Els
linger house and Mcmahon log house
have all been removed.
John Smell in early days built a
frame dwelling on the hillside nearly
opposite the school house. 1t has
long since been removed. A little
distance east of the present Runkell
residence there yet stands in a dilap-
idated condition, small house that
was built by Washington Ellis in very
early days In later years Mr.. Ellis
sold the property and purchased land
on Boice Prairie and began farming.
Beginning with 40 acres he accumu-
lated other land and died possessed Of
240 acres. In the latter days of his
long life he was totally blind. The
little brick building passed to differ
ent parties during its existence. 1t is
now owned by Miss Lizzie Grosser and
is uninhabitable.
Near the latter mentioned building
there was a two-story stone and brick
building that was erected in the early
forites by a Frenchman named Louis
Coke. 1t was used principally as a
tenement house The second story of
brick was taken down some years ago.
The first story of stone yet stands and
is used to house hearses. A short
distance down the street and on the
same side IA two-story brick school
house was built in 1845. 1t stood
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1923-10-17

along the edge of the street and a
creek that ran in the rear. 1t can be
remembered that there were no side
walks in Potosi in thOs days and for
many years thereafter. The children
had to paddle along the muddy street
to the school house. This school be-
came inadequate to accommodate the
children and after % years it was torn
down in 1868 and the present large
building now used as the high school
was erected on the same lot at the
base of the hill and across the creek.
Some time in the future / will attempt
to write history of the Potosi school.
Across the street and nearly oppos-
ite the school house Judge Shell built
a One-story frame dwelling on the
hillside that has long since been re-
moved. On a lot adjoining the school
lot John Dolan built log dwelling
in the early forties. He afterwards
sold this property to Mrs. Hilgers, a
German widow woman who had few
years previously come to Potosi with
four sons. Mr.. Dolan and family re-
moved to log house down near the
Catholic church. The Hilgers house,
as it afterwards became known, was
sold to the school district who tore it
down and made the lot part OF the
school grounds.
In 1910 Michael Welsh built one
story log house on the lot adjoining
the Hilgers lot and it was in this log
house that the writer was born Nov.
16, 1848. The old log building was
long ago removed The present pri-
mary school building stands about
where the old log house stood. Next
to this Edward Desjardin built a one
story frame dwelling afterwards ad-
ding a stone foundation. Desjardi1
was one of the early blacksmiths to
locate in Potosi This property passed
into possession of several different
persons, lastly to the Lawler sisters,
Mary and Kate. They improved the
building by raising it from one to
a two-story building and made nice
looking residence of it. 1t is now
owned and occupied by Miss Kate
Lawlor.
Across the street there was a one
story log house that was owned and
occupied by Mrs. Mary MCGUIRE with
son, John, and daughter, Mary. Her
husband, Peter Mcclure, was drowned
in Grant river in 1850. This old log
house has been removed and near the
lot the Lawler sisters built frame
dwelling that they afterwards sold to
Sam Thomas.
Thomas Grogan built a frame dwell
ling in a very early day that is now
owned by Mrs. Jacob Duve. Opposite
to this building John Riordan, man
of wild nature, built log house in the
forties and followed mining. He was
successful in his mining ventures and
spent his money freely. .
On certain day in the early fifties
he hired a horse and buggy at Ennor
& Hayes livery and deliberately drove
this horse to death. He left the
country without paying for this horse
and it is said went to California and
died there. The old log house has
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1923-10-17

been torn down and removed these
many years ago. Up on the brow Oh
the hill on this street there was log
house that it is said was one OF the
first houses built in upper Snake hOl-
low and was in the early days known
as the Mrs Coyle house. In 1866 Isaac
Wilmott purchased the property from
Lewis and Augustine and it was IN
this log house that the writer passed
his boyhood days. The historical old
building fell down from old age few
years ago. The lot is still owned by
the writer.
Across the hollow from the last
mentioned building there stood log
house on the hill that Willis st. John,
discoverer of the famous st. John
cave, passed the remaining days of
his eventful life. His widow, Betsy,
with son and daughter, occupied the
old log house for years after the death
of st. John. This old building has
been removed East of this on the
hillside was another log house that
was built by John Kentner in the very
early days. 1t is likewise removed,
Next comes a brick dwelling yet
standing that was built by John R.
Jones back in the forties. Mr.. Jones
occupied this house with his family
and conducted a brick yard nearby.
Many brick buildings in Potosi and
nearby places were built with brick
from this yard Mr.. Jones went to
California had never returned to his
family. Mrs. Jones for many years
continued to live there with her three
daughters, all of whom grew to wo
manhood in Potosi and were married
in the old home of their birth. The
youngest daughter, Francy, now re-
sides in Lancaster, the widow of the
late John Carthew, and mother of At
torney Harry E. Carthew. Above the
brick yard there was house that has
long since been removed. Across the
hollow from this log house on the
hillside there stood the log cabin of
Isaac Whitaker, who came to the
Snake hollow mines with his wife in
1882. Mrs. Whitaker was the first
white woman to come to these regions.
Whitaker and Willis st. John were
the discoveries of the famous cave
that was literally filled with lead ore.
The discovery of the cave, it might be
said, indeed soon peopled the ridges
and hollows with miners intent upon
their search for the precious ore.
The property then owned by Whit
taker, in later years became the prop
erty of Simon E. Lewis who built a
one-story frame dwelling east of the
old cabin. This building along in the
seventies was raised to two-story
one and is now the home of w. c. Hy
mer. Across the hollow and south of
the Lewis residence was a one-story
frame dwelling that was built by DR..
Bicknell, very early practitioner in
the Snake hollow region, there was no
Potosi then.
I will now get up on the ridge along
what then was known as the Potosi &
Galena road, and along side of this
road Owen Mclaughlin an early pio-.
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1923-10-17

neer, built one-story frame house.
IL later was occupied by Alexander
M. Neaville and family and still later
bv John O1IIara who moved up from
a log house down the north hollow and
below the Moore and Watson cabin.
The Mclaughlin house in after years
became known as the O'Hara mouse.
Across the road stood log house

that was occupied in the early days by
a family named Markham and later by
a family named Holman. All OF these
last mentioned buildings have been
torn down.
