Old River Pilot Passes Away "Uncle Davey" Campbell, the last of the old river pilots living in this vi cinity, died at his humble homo in South Sioux City last Saturday, July 9th, after an illness lasting nearly a year, daring which time he wa almost helpless. He was io his 85th year. Mrs Minnie Allan, an aged negress, had taken the most devoted care of Lira in the long, weary months of his sickness. Dnring all the time she had battled not alone with the ravages of the disease, but against poverty and hardship. Since his eoming to Sioux City, "Uncle Davey" had been practic ally forgotten by his children, who as children of a former marriage objeoted to his asRociaton with the colored wo man and who had given little help. William E Campbell, a aon, visited here last winter and lei t a little money. With this and the lit Liu which she had been able to earn Mrs Allan kept the wolf from the door. David Campbell was one of the best known of the old river men who thrived in the early 60s aud 70s. His little cottage has for years been the rendez vous for the old timers and those who gathered to hear the tales which the old man never tired of repeating, and which, iu their gripping interest of the . old days when the Indian ruled the land, never failed to hold the attention of every listener. As near as can be learned, "Uncle Davy" came to Sioui City iu 1805, taking up the vocation of captain on one of the early steamboats. The last boot on which he was actively engaged was the old William Towle, which is now being dismantled. On this boat as captain three years ago he was en gaged in making the trips to the sand pits and return, eighteen miles np the river. He is survived by four sons and two daugters by his ilrst wife Willium Campbell of Georgetown, Pa ; Tom Campbell, who is living in West Virginia; Noah and James Campbell, whose residences are nnknown; Mrs Elizabeth Jackson of Chester, W V and Mrs Hattie Wright of Georgetown. "Uncle Davy" was born in Beaver county, Pa, near the Ohio river, March 2G, 182G, and at the oge of 11 years took a position as cabin boy on the steamer, Wellsville, plying between Pittsburg, Pa, and Sunflsh, O, and though his position was the lowest and he received the least pay, his enjoy ment probably was the greatest of all the ofliuers and crew of the steamboat of which he was so small a prt At the age of 16 he became a full fledged deck-baud, and at 21 was promoted to ' watchman on the Hondnries, after whioh his advancement was rapid, serving as second mate, then first mate, and from that to pilot, in whioh capacity he served on many steam boats and navigated practically all the river of the Mississippi valley from New Orleans to the head of navigation on the Missouri and Yellowstone, and also the lower tributaries of the Mis sissippi. During the rebellion he served as pilot on different boats of the union navy in the Mississippi river until 18G5, when on the steamer Oeneral Grant lie made his first trip past Sioux City on hi way from St Louis to Fort Ben ton. After the railroads were built to Sioux City he ran from here to Fort Benton for reveral years, and was pilot with Capt Grant Marsh on the "Far West" during the summer of 1876, in the employment of the government. After the Custer massacre the wonuded soldiers of Maj Iteno'a com mand were brought on board the" Far West" and Capt Marsh and Capt Campbell taking regular shifts at the wheel mado a record breaking run from the Big Horn river down to Fort Xiinooln, opposite Bismark.

Sioux City Jousnal, 11th: 0 A Cur ry, a farmer on Walker's island, yes terday afternoon made the interesting discovery that there was on his farm a petrified cedar tree in a perfect state of preservation. Mr Curry was dig ging a well and had gone four and a half feet when Lis spade struck the ohalcedonio mass, which he at first thought was a rock. On digging to a depth of eighteen feet he discovered that the rock was nothing more; nor less than a petrified tree, with roots and trunk in their original form. Where Walker's Island now lies it is believed that the Missouri river once flowed and that the tree was either a snag which was floating down the stream or a tree growing beside the liver bank.
