Brief Biography of Illustrious Oregonian Whose Name It Is the
Purpose of the People of Proposed Nesmith County to Honor
and Perpetuate.
Jnmoa Willis Nesmith, a man hon
ored for his upright character, and
roverod as a citizen pf loyal Integri
ty, his name will shlno in the firma
ment of illustrious Orcgonlans, a
truo boacon light of progress, Illum
inating tho social atmosphoro and
lighting up tho way for succeeding
generations. Colonel Nesmith was
indebted for his sturdy prowess to
tho Scotch-Irish blood which coursed
through his veins, kindling within
im thoso incentives to deeds of
manliness which characterizes tho
race. Gifted with this nature, ho
wits spurred on to do nnd daro, and
tho triumphant rownrds which
Crowned his efforts at last woro a
fitting tribute to his lifolong devo
tion to hard, unceasing toll and un
swerving principles.
More than a hundred years before
this country was fairly launched on
Its carder as a nation among tho In
dependent govermonts of tlio world,
tho ancestors of Colonel Nesmith de
cided to Journoy, from Ireland to tho
nowly discovered land , in tho West.
They camo to Amorica, and Inter
"history fixes tho dato of 1814 as tho
year of William Ncsmlth's mnrriago
to Miss Harriet Willis, tho daughter
of a man who owned tho land on
which Elizabeth town Btood. Tho
couplo wont to Maine to live. In
1820 whllo visiting Now Brunswick.
their son James Willis, tho subject
of this skotch, was born. Dark
clouds obscured tho boy's early his
tory. His mother was drowned, and,
a few years later his fathor lost his
all in a destructive firo. The de
vouring flames forced tho family to
fleo to a marsh for safety, whet
tho victims crouched low whilo the
city and forest about thom becamo ;'
roaring furnace. Tho exposur?
killed James' stepmother, and he
was compolled to seek tho friondly
caro of neighbors. His father was
ruined irretrievably. Despito this
dosolnto beginning," young Ncsmlth's
llfo grow brighter in after days.
Winning his own way from boyhood,
"ho boenmo nccustomod to tho hard
"knocks" of tho world and strugglod
on with his sunny disposition unim
paired. Ho sot out for tho Western
Resorvo, renchlng tho home of his
cousin, Josoph 0. Wilson, nonr Cin
cinnati, Ohio. Tho two attended
scliool together, and from grnvo sor
row tho Now England boy gradually
beenmo associated with happier
times. Tho great tldnl wavo to tho
Pacific slopo drow young Nesmith
along in its alluring course.
Ho wns anxious to sco tho coun
try, nnd no longer folt nny mis
givings about leaving his Eastern
home, for his last dearest friend, h'3
fathor, had Just died and left him

W
LLIS NESMITI
Mr. Nesmith remained at Fort Scott,
Kan., occupied with the carpentor's
piano and saw, and in 1843 ho
Joined tho Applegate party. In the
'long hours of that toilsome rido over
tho prairies, several membors of tho
train who belonged to tho legal fra
ternity started n mock trial. Nesmith
took part In tho exerclso and dis
played such an amazing amount of
gonitis in his interpretation of Jus
tice that ho was advised to Join the
legal profession. Arriving at Ore
gon City ho put his talents to a
practical test, and two years later
sorved as a Judgo under tho Provis
ional Government Shortly after, the
attractions of Miss Paulino Coff of
Polk county enchained tho attention
of tho young advocate, and tho re
suit was a happy wedding, after
which young Nesmith took his brlds
to live on tho banks of tho Itickreall,
in Polk county, whero they took up
a donation land claim which is still
owned by tho Nesmlths.
Tho murder of Whitman was a
sad blow to Nesmith, his Intimate
friend. Among tho first to strike
for Cayous country to avengo the
foul deed was tho lawyer-pioneer.
In 18C5 tho Itoguo Rtvor and Yald
ma wars called for tho full play of
Nesmith's military powers, and the
flno services which ho rendered won
for him the epaulets of a colonel.
Two years more elapsed, and the
colonel was placed in charge of In
dian affairs, a responsible work cov
ering a territory embracing Oregon,
Washington and Idaho. Meanwhile
Colonol Nesmith had been digging
gold in California, unearthing suf
ficient treasurer to pay back a debt
of $1000 to Dr. McLaughlin, who
had loaned him n herd of cows at,
tho timo of his marriage in 1846, as
a wedding compliment.
About this time tho news that
Fort Sumpter had been fired upon
startled tho country Into wild alarm.
Tho story of how Colonol "Nesmith
remained steadfast to the principles
of tho Union is a matter of national
history. In September I860 Nes
mith had been elected to a seat In
tho United States Senato, and in that
stormy period tho one thought of
complete confidence which tho peo
ple reposed In tho now senator was
based on tho known fact that his
fidelity to tho Union was unchange
able, his faith incorruptable, and
whatever should como to pass that
tho fate of -the nation would bo ef
fected by his vote, they knew ho
would servo his country well. Ho
tfns sworn In as n Senator on March
4, 1861. Prosidont Lincoln took the
colonol into his confidence, and tho
vnrlod military observations of the
hardy Orogonlnn, picked up In fron
tier combats, wore now employed in
tho conduct of tho Civil War.
At tho close of the war the Colonel
becamo opposod to Republican re
construction and joined the Demo
cratic forces. His term as a senator
expired on March 3, 1SC7. Colonol
Nesmith has n glorious charactor.
Honest, opon-henrted nnd courage
ous, no danger nor unexpected event
could shake his firmnoss or disturb
his presence of mind. Of vigorous
mentnl power, humane disposition,
and liberal opinions, he was venlv
nature's nobleman. In his masterly
eulogies upon the powerful oppon
ents of his, Charles Summer and
General Lane, he revealed n depth
of feeling and broad-nilndednoss in
liis treatment of their characters
that evoked national applause, Dif
fering ontirely from their vlows on
public quest'ous of the hour, Colonel
Nosmlth. nevertheless, showed In
the sympathetic tone of thoso ora
tions the enternal chord of humani
tarian regard which nelthor war nor
polities could sever.
Ills was a patriotism without a
blemish, a statesmanship wlthoit
gullo, a londorshlp of armies with
out fatal ambition, a magistracy
without severity, yet Inflexible Is
uprightness. He wns a citizen, ex
emplary In the dlsohnrgo of every
duty, a man who had modesty with
ut diffidence courngo without rash
ness. In 18S0 he died.
