About mid-morning on Febru
ary %, 1853, two horsemen rode
up to the Watson house. There
were two reasons for Tim never
to forget that date. One because
It was the birthday of George
Washington, our country's first
President. The other reason con-
cerned the happening in Tins
life that day.
The two riders just mentioned
dismounted In front of the house
One held the horses while the
other went to the rear of the
house where he had observed
Mrs. Watson doing the family
washing. AS he approached her
Tins mother greeted the strang
er.
Good morning. Sir"
The visitor did not answer the
salutation but asked. "Where Is
the man who belongs around?"
"Well," stammcred Mrs. Wat.
son somewhat surprised. He is
not here right now. Is there some
thing you wanted?"
The man did not answer her
but turned and directed his
speech to his pardner who was
holding the two mounts.
"Come on around here. Boone" "
When the two had rejoined
company again In the presence
of Mrs. Watson, the same one
who had questioned her before
asked. "You got any feed in tha,
barn for these horses?" At the
same time he pointed toward the
horse stables.

hay in the hay pile behind the

as he beckoned Boone to follow
him toward the shelter.
On this morning Tim wa.

their presence.
The horsemen proceeded te

the two stalls therein and gave
them all the hay they coult

The other did not answer but
reached beneath the skirt of his
black waistc0at where hung q
Colts Dragon. Pulling this
heavy handgun he proceeded to
kill two of Mrs. Watson's finest
chickens. As they flopped and
kicked around, Boone grabbed
them and jerked their heads off.
Tins mother had the urge to
reach behind the door for the
rifle and use It on both of the
transgressors. But reflecting on
her knowledge of war during the
last three years she knew that
she must remain calm. BY this
time she was aware that the two
unknowns were cutthroats of
which the country was full. Both
were armed as she could plainly
see. She knew Tim would hear
the shots and would come to the
house at once. So she kept her
peace. and showed no sign Of
excitement.

Timothy Ebert Watson, known
most of his life wherever he
chose to 60. as Tim Watson,'
was born March 20, l848. The
place was near the village Of
Nateville, Illinois In Marion
County. His parents were Vir'
ginia natives, having removed di
rectly from that state after their
marriage, making the overland
trip in a Movers" or covered
wagon. Gabriel Elijah Watson
his father. was of English and
Irish parents who had come d.
rectly from their native lands
Martha Lawson Watson. his mo-
thcr.. was Scandinavian, her
grand parents having emigrated
to America from Norway.
Gabriel Watson farmed and
surveyed some in and near Mar
ion County until the break be-
tween the States in 1860. II might
also be noted that "Gabe" was
sometimes called THE Parson'
or preacher Watson. Although
he had not seen fit to make
preaching his sole mark In life
he was an ordained Baptist min
lister. He officiated at marriages
