Former Resi

Anniversary
Archibald Adams of Lincoln. Veteran
Railroader, Passes Anniver-
sary at Lincoln Today.
From Monday's Daily
Archibald Adams, who lives with
li is daughter. Mrs. C. D. Leonard, and
Mr. Leonard at 2037 P street, Lin
coln, has seen almost a century of
lire. He was born in Carlisle, Eng
land, un June 20. 1S43. and is 95
years old today. In spite of his 95
years he is mentally alert and his
memory is clear. He is confined to a
wheel chair because of paralysis of
one leer, but other than that is in
good health. He has attractive snow
w hite hair, and
a pleasant face upon
which age has left but few lines,
Mrs. Adams died three years ago at
the age of 90.
Mr. Adams came to America in
1SS2 with his wife and family and
settled in Plattsmouth. where he
worked as a machinist until 1S94.
when he moved to Havelock. He was
employed in the Havelock shops until
he was 72. Even then, said Mrs.
Leonard, he w as reluctant to give up
his work.
Mr. Adam's life was an active one
and. until he was confined to a wheel
chair, he traveled a great deal. Now
he loves to sit on the porch at his
home during certain hours each day
and feed the robins, which have be
come so tame that they cat off the
foot rest of his wheel chair, and al
most out of his hands at times.
One event Mr. Adams recalls of
his early life was the witnessing of
the burning in effigy of the Russian
tsar in England during the Crimean
war. 1S53-C1, between Russia on the
one hand and Turkey, France, Eng
land and Sardinia on the other. .
Mr. Adams exhibited an indenture
which he signed when he began his
apprenticeship in England in 18G9
as an "engine fitter." or machinist.
He was to be paid six shillings, or
$1.50 a week for the first year, then
the wages were raised gradually dur
ing the five years until the highest
was 12 shillings. He was docked for
any time lost from his work,
t f Indians so they hastened back to
the depot. His companion turned
bi'ck to Omaha. He had been watch
ing for Indians to step out from be
1 ind trees all along the journey.
At Plattsmouth, Mr. Adams said the
man in charge of the Burlington
shops told him he "guessed-' he
could give him work. Being un
familiar with the word "guess" in
American Mr. Adams told him "a
guess would not do." He obtained a
job. He brought his wife and four
children to Plattsmouth. Mrs. Adams
said it looked like a jumping off
place, lie had come to the United
States on account of his wife's
health. She had asthma badly, and
the doctor told them to live inland.
near the Rocky mountains. When
Mr. Adams saw Wintersteen hill. Gos-
pel hill and high school hill in Platts-

he thought he was getting
near cnonph to the mountains.
Mr. Adams made a visit to Eng
land in 1 1' 0 S . He has made several
trips to Canada since he came to the
When Mr. Adams came to the
United States he first went to Boone,
In., where he had been promised a
job by an acquaintance in the rail
road shops. When he got there he
found this foreman had been dis-
