ing knife, cribbed up to dry as
l saw them that spring. He never
put them up. A hail storm on
the 4th of July peeled his head
up quite badly while trying to
get his stock in the barn. Light
ming had killed his colt, a beautl-
full clear white animal which fell
on its back into the creek. He
had dug in the sod on the creek
round places as large as a tub
which were straight in line both
ways and a lot of them In which
he had planted watermelons. The
insects and grasshoppers destroy
ed them and he got nothing but
disappointment for all of his pains.
1 remember hearing him say that
fall to my father that "The
lightning come and kill my colt,
the grassjumpers eat my crops
and the hail, it knock hell out
of me, gott tamm this country to
hell, I go vest". He did that COM
ing winter and so far as I know
never reported back or collected
for the sale of his improvements
or that set of house logs on which
I know he had worked with all
of his might. This same tract of
land was afterward taken by
Charles H. Crossen in the fall of
1887 and became the site of she
first postoffice which was estab-
Used Oct. %, 1888 with Maggie
(Polley) Crossen as postmistress.
They lived here (leaving out the
40 in 33) and proved up on the
tract and sold out in 1894 when
the %postoffice was turned over to
Charles L. Stockwell and it was
moved then to his homestead
which he proved up and after
ward sold to Lossie Dave. G. H.
Crossen sold his land to my faith
er and he to Lassie Dave.

that they were killed by one Neil
Blue who was a cousin of the
Stewart boys who lived above
Newton. Here we had our dinner
and I was at liberty to take in
my surroundings now that we
had come to rest in the new
country that was to be my future
home.
Now began the process Of
making arrangements to care for
SO large a family where accom-
modations were of a very meager
character. My eldest brother was
assigned with me to remain at
the Diltz ranch till other arrange
ments could be made to care for
us. We we're here for nearly a
month. My father rented a house
of Andrew Ruhl who then lived
on the land now owned by Hi
Staffanson. This land was de-
scribed as the N13 of the SWM
and the S12 of the NWM of Sec.
4, Twp %, N. r. SO E.
John Westenberger then lived

the north. He had come here from
indianapolis, Indiana and was a
cabinet maker by trade. He was
well equipped with tools for his
trade but lacked adaptability for
a homesteader. He had a house
and barn both of which were of
small dimensions, a set of house
logs, straight as an arrow. Every
one of them showed that he had
cut around them like a beaver
and they had fallen where they
might. I knew that it had taken

ssMv Life IN Montana
Ra the aak ~ .. Nsms.s

The following is an arucle from
the files of the late State Senator
Walter ID. Kemmis which will re-
vive memories for old timers still
with US Of The early period it covers
in the settlement of the Sidney area.
we hope to ave other articles COW
ering succeeding years that we knew
he had to write but as vet
a partial examination of his records
has not revealed. 1t is through the
courtesy of his son, George, that
we have this account of Mr.. Kem-
mis- youthful activities after the
family arrived here. It is pioneer
history written by n who ex-
perienced it in the raw and became
a leader in the advancement OF
this area.
My parents came to Montana
Feb. %, 1884. From a westbound
passenger train in the forenoon
Of that day there alighted my
father and mother and five sons
Of whom I was the eldest, a
Mrs. Matte Mack and son Walter
and two sons of a former mar
rage. William E. Gould and
Richard A. Gould on the plat
form of the old depot at Glen
dive. This constituted the emil
grafton to Dawson county that
day. We were met at the depot
by one Higgins, a son of one
Mrs. Slater, photographers resid-
ing in Glendive at that time. They
had come from Walker, Iowa
the fall before and now became
our hosts. We had dinner at their
home somewhere south of the
present courthouse in Glendive.
William NJ. Meadors was sup
posed to meet us there and con-
vey us to the lower valley which
was to become my home for the
next half of a century. In COM
pany with Richard, I went to the
top of Hungry Joe that afternoon
where we busted ourselves by
throwing down as many stones as
IL was possible to loosen from the
ground there. I visited the top
of this hill again in 1912 and
there were no stones loose that
could be found then. From this
fact I surmiSe that others had
enjoyed this sport as much as
we had the day we were there
first.
On returning to the town we
attempted to take in as much
as it was possible to do. Mr.
MeadOrS had now arrived and J
went with him while he die
what business he had to do. To-
gether we visited Mr.. and Mrs
j. d. Sears. a shoemaker in town
who lived upstairs over his shop
Bessie was there and they were
eating supper when we called
Bessie was a round chunk of Z
girl then Of possibly 8 or ter
summers. I was later to know
J. d. well as he ventured into
the sheep business on the valley
and Sears Creek is named aftel
him.
I visited the Jail which at tina
time was surrounded by a yarC
made of cottonwood logs set OF
end in a trench dug to receiv,
them and then set by tampinj
earth in around them to maxi
them as rigid as possible. All o
that territory north of wher,
the Jordan hotel is now was
sage brush flat. I do not remem,
Der any houses north of tina

The following morning being
Feb. 20, our trunks and othe
luggage were taken to the rive
to be crossed in a row boat. Tn
