permanent injunction against Rail-

During the great freshet Of July,
1867, when the dam over Sank Riv-

try for many miles was flooded,
she had reason for concern over
the safety Of Mr.. Smith, who was
away from home at the time. He
was unable to return for two days.
Several others who attempted to
reach their homes during that try
ing period lost their lives.
Mrs. Smith often told Of the in
cidents of early life, especially the
stage coach trip to Sank Centre
with her husband and little daugh-
ter. The stage journey was long
and hard, and Minnesota with its
cold and damp spring was not par
ticularly inviting to her, although
she learned to love her new home
in time. On that memorable trip,
she told at one time, that she was
cold and that a gentleman passen-
ger loaned her his shawl, which
was a part Of every mans wearing

person she met when she arrived
