Aberdeen , S. D. , Nov. 1. Turning
away tcai fully and broken hearted
from the llnal day of the drawing of
names of winners , In the Cheyenne
River and Standing Rock reservations ,
Mrs. Sylvia R. Gillard of Sandusky ,
O. , a widow aged CO years , glanced
Idly at the printed list of winners up
on the wall , hope gone , she faced the
bitterest disappointment of her life ,
but decided to take just ciu more
look , for all day long and day after
day she had spent hours at the drawIng -
Ing in the vain hope that she would
bear her name.
Slowly turning the pages she was
thrilled to see her own name opposite
4338 as the winner of that choice of
claim.
"Thank God , " she screamed , "my
prayer has been answered. "
With tears streaming down her
face she rushed back to the platform
to learn if It wore really true. Shak
ing hands with Judge Witten and all
his deputies she sang In joy. She
had worked nights in a hotel to pay
her way to Aberdeen. She sat up
days to hear her name , but when It
was called she had dozed asleep.
In further answer to the attack of
Louis II111 , president of the Gioat
Northern railway , Judge Witten has
made preliminary preparations to fur
nish Mr. Hill , with the names of all
persons who registered at Kalispcll
if t.io Great Northern wants to refund
their money for fares to that place.
Charles Ktllcn , one ol Hie two Nor
folk men to draw a farm , is a son of
