LYFORD NEBRASKA LAND MARKS * Land Marks That Will Interest Ne braska People In the eastern part of Pawnee ! c< tv are >om old land marks 1 \v ch are of inter* si to all true N iraskans. (Tie nt th As*• ,an*i marks is tin*; fro i Table 1 It>va re c iv* d it-, name. This rock is h . ated about two miles from th present location of the t* n. The rock as it stands n ■ . is about tift*en feet high 'and lias about the same diame ter at its base. Portlier I y an other rock rested upon this one, which resembled a table, hence the name. Being composed of sandstone, the erosion of many! years and perhaps centuries, 1 ha-caused it to entirely disap pear. The lower rock is com-! posed of the same material so that it is gradually going the way of its predecessor. Tradition has it that the sav ages who roamed this region* years ago, used this rock for ai table, which is not improbable, I for from the top we get an ex cellent view of the Nemaha val ley for quite a distance and the approach of an enemy could easily be seen. Around this rock toward the north, are the fatuous caves, in | whjch the Indians cooked their {meals, fought with their ene ; imes and when all was quiet, it i was here they smoked their l peace pipes. The most famous of all these land marks Is a little east and i across the river from the rock and caves, ft is the famous Blacklaw mill. It is said to be the tirst milt to grind ttour in Nebraska. The mill has not been used I since Blacklaw was shot. Su perstitious people say that Blacklaw’s ghost still visits the old mill at the mystic hour of darkness. The town of Table Rock tirst started around this mill. Be cause of the overflowing of the Nemaha river, the town was moved farther west across the river. For the same reason they nere again forced to move. This time ttie city was moved to its present site on the hill,where it could be destroyed by floods no more. .1. G. Dodds. Dislocated Shoulder Mrs. H. E. Boyd of Humboldt, has been suffering this week from a dislocated shoulder sustained in a peculiar manner. In putting on her jacket about two weeks ago, she ihrew her arm back far enough to cause a sharp pain, of which “she thought little at the time The member continued to give her trouble until last Friday evening, when a medical examin ation revealed a dislocation of the bone as stated It was re stored to place and the patient will doubtless soon be fully re covered from her unpleasant c.\ oerience.—Humboldt Leader Wins First Place Miss -Jessie Draper is continu ing her enviable record made ; while a student of the Humboldt | high school, and on last Friday evening was successful in winning j first place in an oratorical contest at the Grand Island college, which | institution she has been attending the past year, the contest being given to determine who should! represent the college at the state contest at Crete on April 16th.
