Stonebreaker, of McKay creek, was In tho city today en route to Athena, whore he will be the guest of relatives and friends for a few days. Mr. Stonebreaker Is one of the old est inhabitants of thjs part of tho state, having come here in 1801, and ho has many interesting" remembran ces of tho early days. Tho first winter ho spent in this county there was nothing but sun shine all the year. One morning only there was enough frost to slightly freeze the ground where It was damp. uut tne next winter was the worst in the history of the state. It snoweil. uiree times, eacn time a crust freez ing op tqp of the snow in the Interim until there wore three separate lay ers oi snow. Arter the fine snow full Jor several days und drifted until the wnoie country was level. On Wild Horse creek it drifted over the trips of some of tho trees nnu one man that year lost 1.300 head of cattle In jnc camp, the animals dying where they wer4 hT"1''1 together In a shel tered valley. 'X.'1 Mr. Stonebreaker is a ftrent frtond or the Indians, and has lived through the Indian troubles without oyer hav ing come In conflict with them.

The Indian had run tho sheriff into tho house, alld Mr. Stonebreaker whipped him for it. After that tho Indians left him alone.

That wo remind the af- llicted mother and sisters tint 'life has quicksands, llfo has snares, cam nnd age come unawares," which by. 1110 piovuieuco of God she has been spared, and we point them to the faith of our Christian reliclon. that alio Is not gone forever, but that there is a 'linmo not made with hands' whore all families xhall bo reunited and nil tears shall bo wiped away. Though there nre a vacant chair and grief-stricken hearts, thero are also sweet memories of the goodness, cheerfulness nnd helpfulness of her who has passed from our sight. May tho sunshine of these memories brighten somewhat the gloom of bur row, and the thought that in her In nocence she Is now tho fit companion of .ingcls, bring consolation in this hour of anguish.
