In the fall of 1921 an epidemic
probably typhoid, swept through
these people. Many of them died;
among them the first Barnhill, some
of the Maxwells and some of the
Wilson's. They were buried in the
little cemetery.
A daughter Of Robert Barnhill
married a man named Corbaly, and
in a log cabin where the hospital
now stands, a little son, the first
white child of Marion county, was
born. The descendants still are
here.
The Wilson home, the oldest
building in indianapolis, until two
years ago stood two blocks east of
Riley Hospital. Then it was razed;
but still the dead of that old day
sleep under the lilacs, and their
names are written in Barnhill and
Maxwell and Wilson SITS.

Forgotten Settlement Is
Recalled by Markers in
Old Cemetery.
BY HELEN MAHIN

In an old graveyard southeast of
Claremont sleeps the mother of the
first white child born in Indian
apolis. The tombstone is broken
and long has lain flat, but the let
tering still is distinct.
Under a clunp of lilacs 100 feet
north of the Indiana University
Medical School lies the oldest ceme-
terry in Indianapolis; the stones are
gone, but the markers, with the
names obliterated, still may be
found If the searcher will clear away
the drift of time.
When a site for the medical school
was sought in 1913, two members
Of the committee looking over the
ground near the city hospital came
upon streets named Barnhill, Will
son and Maxwell.
They wondered about the names.
1t happened that the committee
members were: DR.. John F. Barn
hill and DR.. Allison Maxwell, and
they knew a good deal about a Will
son family Of Indianapolis, one of
whom was a brother-in-law of
James Whitcomb Riley; but they
knew little about the desolate tract
lying about the city hospital.
DR.. Barnhin began a research that
lasted over several years and
brought from the forgotten past the
story Of a lost settlement, the sec
ond earliest Of indianapolis.
Robert Barnhill, the great-great-
grandfather of DR.. Barnhill, came
to Marion County from North Caro-
lima by way of Kentucky in 1920,
about six months after George
Pogue arrived, and came to a halt
a little farther south. Barnhill To-
Gated on the exact spot where the
Riley Hospital now stands, and in
the same year was joined by twenty
five families.

PARISIANS BUZZ
over RUMOR OF
PRINCES AMOUR
Link Nicholas of Rumania
and Society Girl in
EIopement.

BIZ United Press
PARIS, oct. 5.-Paris ignored
official denials from Bucharest to-
day and speculated wildly on the
latest topic of royal gossip-whethe:
Prince Nicholas Of Rumania is
following in the footsteps Of his no
torious brother, Prince Carol.
Nicholas has been in Paris in
cognito for a month and persistent
reports are that he eloped with a
beautiful Rumanian society womal
and has refused to return to Bucn-
Arrest, where he is a member of tic
regency and one of three guardians
Of the boy king, Michael.
Outwardly, at least, the prince
has led the life of a bachelor here.
But last Wednesday night he ap-
peared with tall, patrician blonde
The next night he appeared again
and with the same lovely woman
at his side.
Sees Little of Carol
The United Press learned that
the prince was joined recently by
woman said to be a society leader
in Bucharest. Prince Nicholas is
staying at a hotel near the home
of Prince Carol and Madam Le-
pescu, but he sees very little Of his
brother.
Both Prince Carol and Nicholas
have engaged handsome black au-
tomobiles with two footmen, but
they are engrossed in entirely sepa-
rate lives and their relations are
rather formal and meager.
Speculation tonight - and there
was plenty of it along sensational
lines-centered on whether Prince
Nicholas had fled Bucharest because
he was disguised with conditions
there or whether he had simply
lost his head" over woman.
Plead for Return
1t was said the princes dis
appearance had been known for
some time, but that it had been kept
secret because of fear of disorder
because of his responsible position
at Bucharest.
The government officials and
Queen Marie, it was said, had sent
special couriers and messages to
Nicholas pleading with him to re-
turn.
Dispatches from Bucharest, how
ever, said the reports were false and
that Nicholas was expected to re-
turn there Saturday.
Prince Carol was eXiled and the
crown given to his son, king
Michael, after the Grant prince had
run away with Madame LepeScu, a
Jewess and wife Of a Rumanian
army officer.
Princess Helene Of Greece, Carols
wife, recently was granted divorce.

( PITTSBURGH, Oct. 5.-Pennsyl-
Z vania will rot depart, this year,

In both Philadelphia and Pitts

In Pittsburgh most of the Smith

The results in both of the big

vote is coming from the people who
ordinarily fight the machines or, be-
