HOW TO SPELL "PEDDLER"
Over Which a Dispute Arose That Caused
the Death of One Man.
A YOUNG TEACHER SENTENCED TO HANG
The Thoughts of the Young Man While Un
der Such Sentence.
FLEES THE COUNTRY NEVER HEARD OF
Perhaps there are a number of the
readers of the Journal who remember
a murder that occurred in Lancaster
county nearly twenty-five years aro.
The scene of the murder is said to be
Waverly, and the murderer was a
younf school teacher by the name of
Quinii IJohanan, an exceedingly bright
yountf fellow. One night a dispute
arose between Kohanan and the mur
dered man over the simple matter as
to the way "peddler" was spelled. One
claiming that "pedler" was ri'ht
and the other that "peddler" was the
proper way. The dispute became very
heated, until finally the murdered man
struck the young school teacher, who
pulled a revolver and shot him. These
circumstances are no doubt still fresh
in the minds of many of the older res
idents of Cass county, as well as the
trial, conviction and final escape of
Kohanan, who has never been heard
of since. The following article was
written by the young man while in
jail, and we reproduce it for the fact
that the sentiment therein contained
demonstrates the bright mind of
which he was possessed. The article
appeared in the Nebraska City Press.
while he was in imprisonment in that
city in 1884:
"I saw a copy of the Press bearing
date May 4, 1884, containing an article
entitled "Hanging for Murder." While
reading thisarticlel thought it possible
that the condition of one's mind and
the tendency of one's thoughts when
under sentence of death might be in
teresting to some of the more curious,
and possibly useful to the more
thoughtfnl of the reading class.
"I am myself under sentence of
death. After having been tried at the
city of Lincoln in June, 1882, for mur
der in the first degree, I was found
guilty of murder in the second degree
and sentenced to hopeless imprison
ment. Having been nearly two
years under this sentence, 1 secured a
new trial and fought airain the hard
battle and lost at Nebraska City, April
21, 1884.
'The next thir.g now to be consid
ered is the grand mystery death.
The sentence of death has been passed
upon me. I must be coolly and delib
erately killed on the 8th day of Au
gust. While sitting alone in sober con
templation of death, its near approach,
the horribleciicumstances with which
it is attended and its solemn mysteries
combined, spread over my soul a feel
ing of gravity I have never felt be
fore.
'I have befoie me a bunch of faded
flowers, still beautiful even in death.
While looking at their withered leaves
think of the fiat of faith, ''all must
die," and think how soon I, too, will
be launched on the wreck-covered riv
er. Kven now i feel tnat l am stand
ing on the mundane shore of the dark
vale that death has drawn between the
frontiers of time and eternity, peering
into the dense vista that veils the mys
tic shore beyond. The hard battle for
ife is fought, the final struggle for
ife is ended and I am now standing on
the bank of the dreaded river. I look
into the waters. They are dark and
deep. I feel them. They are cold.
I taste them. They are bitter indeed.
I look about me. I am alone. My
friends (the last to give me up), have
said "farewell" and turned to continue
the journey of life.
"No enemy, however daring, pursues
me here, but pale and trembling they
leave me here. No sounds of nature
that once cheered the course of life
are heard. No flowers bloom on this
desolate coast. All the storms and tem
pests of life yield here to the majesty
of silence. All the wrecks of the past
are here softened, smoothed and en
tombed. The blood that once coursed
the veins in the vigor of life, fails to
flow on its wonted course. The heart
that once leaped with joy and excite
ment in manhood's early days, stands
still. And the nerves of the body re
fuse to vibrate to the emotions. All
is hushed, and silence continues here
her reign in solemn majesty. Even
the dark river itself continues its
course in profound and solemn silence.
No wonder he who has once passed
this dreary vale returns no more. But
the fiat of faith has gone forth. "It is
appointed unto man once to die," from
which no decree, no appeal, can be
taken, but all must bow in submission
to death; to whose majesty and rebell
ious knee of the infidel must in suppli
ance bend, and the gainsaying tongue
of the atheist confess God, who holdeth
the keys in His hand and wieldeth the
prerogative of death. None can es
cape. The little child, with all the
beauty of Innocence, is plucked by the
withering hand of death. The middle
;ued. In the strength ami vioi or lire,
must yield. And the irniv h;i'li-il ni in.
who has run the Jong, b.ird imv to the
end, must pass here and l-av. their
name mi the dark register.
"I know what life is to those who
enjoy its many blessings. I too re
member to have seen better days, and
drank the sweet cup of love.liberty and
pleasure of the different gratitude. I
know what Imprisonment is also, for I
have run the bard irauntlet and am
now rapidly nearlng its tragic end
Hut of death, I cannot speak from ex
perience, but the bitterness of this cup
cannot exceed its blessing of rest
Here, at last, I lay down the grievous
burden to rest, where no enemy dare
pursue although no friend can cheer
or oiler words of comfort.
"Hut remembering that patriarchs,
prophets and apostles have all passed
this dark barrier thrown across the
path of life, and that Christ left here
the cross and said to all who must fol
low, "fear not him who hath power to
destroy the body." 1 bend my steps
with encouragement onward, knowing
that many dear to my heart have pass
ed this way long ago, and among them
a cherishing mother, the sweet recol
lection of whose many virtues now
sweetens the bitter cup her youngest
son must drink.
"Let no man foriret his mother, for
if he should chance to be wrecked on
the stormy course of life and forsaken
by all other friends, memory will bear
to his troubled spirit the soothing in
fluences of a mother's sympathies,
which no grave and thoughtful man
can despise in the conflict between life
and death. And I would to God that
the bitter cup could have been sweet
ened with the glory of a better cause.
Of all deaths possible for a man to die,
to be hanged for murder is the one I
least expected.
'Rut fate steals along with silent tread.
Found oftenest in the least we dread.
Frowns In the storm with anrry brow.
And in the sunshine strikes the fatal blow.' "

A MIRACULOUS ESCAPE
FROM INSTANT DEATH
M. A. Ounfee, Foreman of a Burlington Line
men Gang Falls From a Third Story.
AT THE PLATTMOUTH HOTEL
The Accident Occurs About Two O'clock
Sunday Morning.
THE ANKLE OF THE RIGHT LE6 BROKEN
About two o'clock on last Sun
day morning M. A. I)umfee, foreman
of a gang of Burlington linemen, fell
from a third story window on the east
side of the Plattsmouth House, frac
turing the right ankle and otherwise
bruising the limbs and in several
other different parts of the body.
Mr. Hunfee was occupying room No.
1, situated on the third floor of the
hotel and facing the east, the hotel
being situated on the corner of Main
and Third streets. It seems that the
Mr. l)unfee is somewhat of a somnam
bulist and is in the habit of getting up
in his sleep and moving about. It ap
pears that he was dreaming of climb
ing a pole when he raised the window
as high as it would go and stepped out.
On the east side of the hotel are iron
steps running to the second floor and
right under the window from which
the unfortunate man fell. He lit
about four or five steps up the stair
way, and then bounced to the side
walk. In the fall his left arm strad
dled the banister and be lit so hard
that several of the cast iron sidings
that holds the railing, were broken in
two.
Chief of Police Fitzgerald was on
duty at the time and happened to be
on the opposite side of Main street,
and heard the window go up with a
sort of a crash and heard the fall. He
mmediately rushed to the rescue of
the injured man, and quickly
summoned Dr. Cummins. By the time
the doctor arrived, Mr. Dunfee had
been carried into the office of the hotel
where his wounds were dressed and
was then conveyed to a room on the
second floor, convenient for attention.
When first approached by Chief
Fitzgerald he supposed he was done
for, but upon examination it was for
tunately discovered by Dr. Cummins
that aside from the broken ankle, the
other injuries were comparatively
slight. Mr. Dunfee bears his injuries
with considerable fortitude, and feels
very grateful that the calamity is no
worse. The Dr. thinks Mr. Dunfee
will be unable to resume work for sev
eral weeks.
Mr. Dunfee expected to leave Mon
day for Lincoln and then to the Black
Hills, where he was to have taken
charge of another gang of linemen for
the Burlington.
Mr. Dunlee's former home was in
Athens county, Ohio, where he was
born and reared, but for some time his
headquarters have been located in Lin
coln, and has been in the employ of
the company for several years.
While the accident is deeply regret
ted by attaches of the hotel, the oc
currence is solely attributed to Mr.
Dunfee's somnambulistic feats. And
this serious fall may be the means of
breaking him of walking in his sleep,
as this is the first serious accident lie
has met with in consequence. The
Journal hopes for his speedy recovery.
Frank Frahr, the general superin
tendent of the Burlington telegraph
line work, came down from Lincoln
Sunday and made all arrangements
for the care of the injured man, who,
we understand, will remain under the
care of Dr. Cummins, instead of taken
to a hospital at Lincoln or Omaha, as
at first thought would be best.
Feel Impending Doom.
The feeling of impending doom in
the minds of many victims of Bright's
disease and diabetes have been chang
ed to thankfulness by the benefit de
rived from taking Foley's Kidney Cure
it will cure incipient Bright's disease
and diabetes and even in the worst
cases gives comfort and relief. Slight
disorders are cured in a few days. "I
had diabetes in its worst form," w rites
Marion Lee of Dunreath, Ind, "I
tried eight physicians without relief.
Only three bottles of Foley's Kidney
Cure made me a well man." F. G.
Fricke & Co.
The Diamond Cure.
The latest news from Paris, is, that
they have discovered a diamond cure
for consumption. If you fear consump
tion or pneumonia, it will, however, be
best for you to take that great remedy
mentioned by W. T. McGee, of Vanleer,
Tenn. "I had a cough, for fourteen
years. Nothing helped me, until I took
Dr. King's New Discovery for Con
sumption, Coughs and Colds, which
gave instant relief, and effected a per
manent cure." Unequalled quick cure,

More Comforts Than Ever.
An editorial gusher in one of our ex
changes bewails the fact imaginary,
of course that "there are no longer
any old homes on the farm; no longer
any country life with its good cheer
and honesty; no longer any delights
among the young people on the farms,
no longer any farms, in fact: every
thing swallowed up in aristocracy
and monopoly." My, what a lie. It is
common to hear such talk from city
people who know nothing about it.
There is positively not one word of
truth in such statements, as every
body knows who was raised on a farm.
Home life on the farm is pleasanter
than ever before; the farmer has more
comforts than he has ever had before
in his life: the young people on the
farm have more encouragement and
better opportunities: also better times
than they ever had. Farm life is more
attractive and more profitable than it
has ever been since the discovery of
America. Pessimists can say what
they please and bemoan the fact that
times are not what they used to be,
but the fact remains that homes were
never so happy as now. But how easy
it is to set up a wail, saying things
have all gone to the bad since we w ere
young. Such thoughts indicate decay
not in the world but in the minds of
those who write them. The farm is
more popular than in any of the years
gone by. The rosy cheeked boy and
girl from the farm are just as hand
some as ever and there are plenty of
them. The farm is still the ideal place
of comfort, health and happiness.
