THE OREGON 8UNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, SUNDAY MORNING, DECEMBER M, 101 HONUHENTIN MEMORY OF SERGEANT FLOYD Hundredth Anniversary of Lewis and Clark Soldier's Death Com memorated by the People of Sioux City, la., Whp Keep Green the Explorer's Grave. WAS BURIED WITH MILITARY HONOR AT FLOYD'S BLUFF One of the Nine Young Men from Kentucky Who Joined the His torio Expedition to Penetrate the Wilds of the Unknown Northwest Which Portland Remembers Next Year. 4t From th Sioux City Journal. A tali shaft of stone on a bluff to the southeast of the city, overlooking the Missouri wiver and not far away from the Floyd river, recalls the earliest con spicuous Incident in the recorded history of this region. - This wss the e'gpToratlon by I,nwrhj and Clark. Instituted by President Thorns Jefferson in 1M4 to secure in formation regarding the great western domain. Th Floyd monument was erected by patriotic and appreciative cltl sens of Sioux City and other places In honor of Sergeant Charles Floyd, who tiled near Sleux City while on that ex pedition. The story of the death of Sergeant Charles Floyd, which occurred ovsr 100 yesrs sgo. hss been written many times, but the Interest of Sioux Cttyans therein never Isg. Some of the circumstances of the exploration and of ths death and burial and subsequent reinterments of Floyd are told in this article, ths In formation being; given by John VL Charles, president of the Floy Memo rial assorlstlon. sn organisation ef fected her for the purpose of caring for the grave and preserving th ntotory In connection therewith, and w,Mch. after much effort, erected the fine monument. In 17tJ Captain Orey discovered the mouth of the Oregon river, now called the Columbia, which gave to the United tts, by the right of discovery, all JAs' portion of country drained by the Columbia river. In th same year Thomts Jefferson suggested to th .American Philosophical society of Phila delphia tti propriety of fitting out an expedition for the headwaters of th Missouri river. At that time th entire Missouri river was still owned and con trolled by the Spanish and th French. There were but It states in th union st that time, not on of them reaching weat of the Mississippi nor touching the gulf of Mexico. But Jefferson, who was alwavs wide awake and looking ahead for the bast Interest of the country, had thought this mstter ovr carefully, and he concluded it was essential for the people f th United States to know something of th headwaters of the Mis souri river, and also-1 cross the portage as It wss called, between the headwaters of th Missouri snd the principal river of the Pacific slop. Money Bard to Balsa, The society above referred to agreed with Mr. Jefferson. But how to rals the money was a serious question, al though It was but 1.000 or a trlfl lass that was necessary. After eight or nln veers of hard work trying to raise ths mean with which to go to the head waters of th Missouri river, thsy fi nslly succeeded in raising sbout $00. snd It wss decided thst It was best to proceed at one 'with this expedition. For this purpose they selected Capt. Meriwether t.ewls and a French scien tist by the name of Micheaux. These two gentlemen proceeded with the inten tion of organising the expedition, but before they wire ready for th trip Pro fessor Micheaux was recalled by the French government, and thus ended the first effort si trying to find th head Waters of the Missouri river. But In 1803. after Jefferson had pur chased the province of Louisiana, con gress appropriated 12.000 for th pur pose of this expedition, snd Captain Iwls was again appointed, and h se lected Cspt. William Clark for his as latant. They proceeded west at one to St. Louis, and while on th route, passing through Kentucky, they selected a number of men. among them Sergeant Chart Floyd, who afterwarda died on the expedition, and is burled on Floyd" bluff In this city. Bxpedl tlon Bets Oat. On May 10, 1S04. the expedition set out from St. Louis' (or. father, from Cahokla. 111., which was a town opposite the mouth of the Missouri river) on the celebrated expedition. They proceeded up the Missouri river, and on August 10. 104. Sergeant Charlea Floyd died and was burled as above stated. Sergeant Floyd was a young man frosa Kentucky of more than ordinary merit, snd was highly esteemed by Captains l.cwis and Clark. As stated, he wss burled on Floyd's bluff with th honors of wsr. where hla remains rested until the spring of 1U7. when the river cut into the bluff so as to endanger ths loca tion. The people of Sioux City Went down and reacued the remains, snd In due time reburled them on the same bluff about tOO yards further east. There r a number of people still In Sioux City who remember the circum stances. The grsve bad frequently been visited by men who wer traveling through the country a, for Instance. In 1831, George Catlln. a celebrated painter and Indian traveler, stopped st the grave and made a painting of the bluff, which Is still extsnt. and a copy of which can be seen In CetlhYe works. Thr wer others, too, coming up the river who visited the grave of Ser geant Floyd. In May. 1311. th Overland Astorlsn expedition, under W. P. Hunt, stopped here. In that party were Mr. Bradbury, whose work Is well known, snd Thomas Nuttall, subsequently noted for his work on ornithology; and still Ister In the same month and the same vear Henry W. Breckinridge, in com pany with Manuel Lisa, a noted fur trader, also stopped at the grsv of Ser geant Floyd. Monument Is Brectod. In 185 s number of Sioux City people who were acquainted with the location looked up the neglCted grave of Ser geant Flovd, and after considerable search found the spot where the remains wer at ret. It now becoming Im portant In the eetlmatlon of a great many popl thst something should be done to show the gratitude of the Amer ican people to the memory of him who ad loat his life on this expedition. It wss decided to organise the Floyd Me mortal association. The exsct date of organisation Is Juns . 185. and the face the grave of Sergeant Floyd. Th organisation was concluded Aug. SO. IMR. when oertsln memorlsl services were performed. The association purchased from the Sioux my Stock Tsrds company and paid foi acres of ground on Floyd's bluff This ground was deeded to the Hi of Sioux City for th purpose of a perpetusl park to be known as Floyjl Memorial park, with the exception of on Jrr whVh yss deeded to ths t'nltod Slates in constderstloa of an appropria tion of 8.OO0 which was mad for th erection of a shaft on the grounds to commemorate and mark th spot where rest th ashes of Sergeant Charlea Floyd.

The view from the monument looking out over th winding Missouri Is on of th moat beautiful in th vicinity of Sioux City. Something About Floyd. In light of th trlbut which the Floyd Memorial oasoclatlon hss paid Sergeant Charles Floyd something In detail about 'his life may be of Interest. As a matter of fact, however, not a great deal is known of the young soldier. It waa frontier Kentucky blood that coursed In the veins of Sergt. Charles Flood blood that has had much to do In making the 'history between the Alleghe nulea and the Rockies. Hla ancestors moved Into the country In the laat quar ter of the llth century and were highly respected snd well to do. His grand parents war William and Obadlah Flood, but whether hla father waa Col. John Robert. Charlea or Ishsm Is not definitely known. Nor have the time and place of his birth been fixed. The probabilities are that Charles was a son of Charles, snd that he was born In Jef ferson county. Ky , between 1 780 snd 1 785. In any event he came of a stock given to fighting Indians and his Is no; the only monumsnt dedicated to a Floyd for services rendered on the frontier. But Sergeant Flyd waa never a sol dier In the United States army. H waa on of the "nine young men from Ken turky" who th Lewis snd Clsrk history saya joined the expedition in the fall of 183 at St. Louts snd went Into winter camp at tha mouth of Wood river In Illinois, nearly opposite th mouth of the Missouri. He waa between :3 and year of age, of neither fame nor for tune, but somehow won one of the three pieces aa non-commissioned officer. And still another Investigation of thst celebrated newer! can It be thst there Is a suspicion thst it contains secreted treasure? (Special Dispatch to The Journal ) San Francisco Dec. 24. "I have seen him throw hi stepson into a trance and make his muscles as rigid aa so many Iron bars. All that waa necessary, a glare and a couple of passes with hi hands, and it was all off with th vic tim. He could make Mrs. Chad wick look Ilk an amateur." Thla la the way Mrs. H. X. D. Flem ing of 133 Turk street described tha methods of "Dr." William Proctor, who, she declares, swindled her out of the valuable White Sulphur Springs property near Santa Rosa. The "doctor" la now In difficulty across the bay. where he 1 being triad for theft In the Alameda court, aa th outcome of hla friendship ' for Mrs. Kmellns Tyson or Nlles. who says h stole 81M and several rings from her. Since his arrest, Mrs. Fleming and Mrs. Caroline Nielsen of 1418 Eighth avenue, East Oakland, have com for ward with the information that they were also victims of Dr. Proctor, ac cording to Mrs. Flaming, Proctor la a hypnotist, and she believes It Is thai power that ho employe to dupe unsus pecting women. He tried it on her, but she resisted the Svengall glare whan he suggested a matrimonial alliance, though when It came to a business deal a couple of passes settled her -and she gave him th deed to her Santa Rosa property. "The first I ever heard of thla Proctor was when I received a letter from him,' said Mrs. Fleming today. "I had ad vertlsed White Sulphur springs for sal and he answered the advertisement. In his initial letter he asked me to excuse his Impudence, said he had heard a lot of good things about me and declared that he was a good man. He promised to tell me all the good thing he had heard about me when we met. , "I did not know what to make of the letter and did not answer it. He wrote again from. Petaiuma. saying that he thought he could dispose of my prop erty, and we arranged a meeting. H came to th springs June 5 and told me he had a friend In Los Angeles named Martin who had property In Los Angeles valued st 83,000 and a let in Ban Diego worth SS00. Aa the agent of Martin ha offered to exchange that property for the springs. "Proctor represented himself to be a Mason, and as I had a brother in the Masonic order, I trusted him. The trans fers were made and I learned, too late, that the southern properties were worth less. The Los Angeles residence did not belong to Martin and the lot In San Diego waa appraised at 84. I tell you. Proctor Is a dangeroua man. "It is true he suggasted marriage, but was not thinking of such thing. It was strictly buslnass with him, so I told him I would wait until I knew more about him before entertaining hi proposal.' Since deeding away her Santa Rosa property she has conducted a lodging house at 123 Turk street. A mortgage on the Whit Sulphur springs has recently been foreclosed.
