We have written more in defense
of the inhabitants of Bristol town
ship, than any other living man.
We do not say this to boast. but
that we may tell the other side.
We have folks here who have pray
ed and voted to put the state and
nation dry, and then failed to real
ize at listing time that their earthly
goods were worth as much as their
neighbOrs', or as much as when
they were telling neighbors and
friends. This disease is not only
prevalent in Bristol, but we no.
ticed in comparing lists with other
assessors that some others had
contracted the disease in their
townships. Mayhap it would be a
good idea for the missionary So
cieties to spend some of their mon
ey to make up the deficit caused by
the trying to catch bootleggers.
We find that at an election held
at Sub District No. 10 (Rowland
SCHOOL,, April s, 1878, Phillip
Wickersham acted as chairman.
Until we do little visiting over at
z. O. Tildefl's, we will be unable to
write of this family Anyway we
are sure that this adds another to
the list of names of folks who have
lived here, and now the name is no
more. z. Ode Tilden may look and
act like a pioneer to you, but he is
not. While it is true he came to
Bristol just as soon as Sadie would
let him, that is not long enough ago
to put him in the long whiskered
class. We thank God for lot Of
good friends, but we, have none bet
ter than Ode and Sadie Wilson Til
den who own and reside on the for
mer home of Mrs. Tilden's father
at Rowland. They have no chill
dren, and we wish to say at this
time if we get another chance we
want to be their first born-also
their last. Ode and Sadie are as
much in love today as when Ode
wended his way from Muskingum
county, with a standing collar and
broadcloth suit, to promise the
preacher what he would do. Ring

of the hearts of their children,
neighbors and friends. While their
forms have gone back to mother
earth, their deeds of love and kind
ness continue to help make the
world better.
Adam Mohler and son Benny
spent a couple of years at Meigs.
They came from Philo. Mrs. Moh-
Ter had died before they came here.
We can't think why they came, un-
less it was for change in climate.
At any rate, they went back. When
Adam died, they sent a telegram to
a daughter at Crooksville. Squire
Gus Carnes who was employed at
Crooksville at that time, carried the
message to her He also attended
the funeral which was held at the
Iliff church.
At that place Benny got to be
quite a musician, and was the faith

here they lived in the Kirk house
