The Pirst Settlement at Fontsnelle , Ne braska , Arrival of the Quincv Colony on Their Ferry Boat. The Gallant Peter A. Sarpy to Killing of Porter and Demaree Keminisceno of the Cat fish W Etc ! " " E ( Written for Tufc UES. [ It is not my aim or intention to write the history of tha former terri tory , and later state of Nebraska. No one man is able to do that cf himself. The incidents of the early history of Nebraska which I give to the public , are confined mostly to one locality , and are Intended to aid the future historian who hail write the -history of that great and glorious common wealth. I write of things which came under my personal observation in the early days' of the territory. 1 was a msnbef of the "Qalncy Colony1 which left Quincy , Ills , , on the steamer "Mary Ann , " on the afternoon of the 9ih day of March , 1855. The beat was a small one , and intended to bo used KS a ferry be tween the Bluffs and Omaha. Our trip up the Missouri river was slow , and we wera fire weeks reachii PlattEimuth , Nabr.iska , nr J . . QUt a short distance OT6 { lore , our boat struck a enBg cna eank In 10 feet -ier , a total lo' . It was about throe hours before we got any assistance'out1 yawl having been stolen a ferr nighlR before. The first one to corno to our appeals for help was PETER A. SAKI-i' , who sent down two flit-boats on which everything of valua that could be saved from the wreck , wai landed dur ing the day on the Ion a side of the river , and then hauled to the Bluffs. I well remember the greeting of Sarpy when vre huded. Graspirg each by the hand in turn , ho BiW , "By G d , sir , you came near going to h 1 sirTo the ladies he was ex tremely polite , and helped all to lodg ings and a gocd dinner at a small s t tlemout near by , which , I think , was called "New Jerusalem. " Old settlers hare not forgotten Peter A. Sarpy. Ho could be .is rough and at vho same time as polite as any man I ever knew } an.3 n8 was liberal to a fault , \Vhen lhe history of JSebras-0i3 propetly Trrillen , Peter . . Carpy i ill uccupy a prominent plrw in it. The patsengera and crew of the Mary Ann consisted of J. D. Mo'In- tosh , captain , Nitte , his wife * and four children ; W. H. Davis , wife and tour children ; Samuel Peters , wife and three children ; Ethan Allen ; Jes sie Barlap and sister , a pilot and two engineers , and perhaps two or three other persons , whose names I do not remember , having lost the note-book which I kept of those days. We were to settle at Fontenello , on the Elkhorn river , forty five miles northwest of Omahn , the tettlement having been located the previous fall ) and LOO HOUSES BUILT near the river for the accommodation of the pilgrims who were to come in the spring. In those days the excitement to "go west" to Nebraska and Kansas was al most as great as the California fever which developed a few years previous , and had not subsided at the time of which I write. These were good old days , the best and happiest of my life , and I look back to them with pleasure and gratification. The pioneers of Nebraska were a good class of people generally , and came from all the different walks and avocations of life. There was little of the aloment called "rough" to be fonnd among ; them. Some were poor ; others had money ; all came to better their condition. In those days the conventionalities and stiffness of strict society etiquette were laidasido at useless ; stumbling blocks in the way of frontier sociability. I do not say that we did away with manners and civilized politeness. By no means. The early pioneers were mostly intelligent people , well-raised , self-educated , and college-educated , too. Many were refined ladies and gentlemen , who , while retaining all the grace * and accomplishments of so- cifity etiquette , learned in eastern homes and schools , threw aside the strict ceremony of the law for the let- tes and spirit of true sociability and hearty friendship. Still there was a "distinction with a difference. " Tbo man who had a wagon for the shelter of hla family was Incky ; the man with a tent was well fixed , while those who lived in cottonwuod Bbsntios , sod or lotr nouses , were "bloated bondholders , " who could afford to rur ON AIRB over these not BO fortunate. There were no palatial residence : then , as now. Thewelltodo Mr. Brown and the humble Mr. Jones may hava both lived in sod houses , but yon conld not tell , by looking at the Interior which had the most wealth What a glorious time we had "rough- ing it , " in that lovely valley , by that beautiful river ! Oh , these blessed days ! How they have flitted away ! And the fish that we caught , and the ducks , gecso , turkeys , deer and elk which our hunters brought in daily ! It was a continual feait of fat things , in that bracing , Inviaorating air , be fore .ho Plittte and Elkhoru valleys wore disturbed by the plow , "Rough ing it ! " 1 would like to bo twenty years younger and try it over. When I first etood on the bluffs overlooking the Elkhorn and Phtte valley , I thought I never before had seen so beautiful a sight ; and I never had. I was intoxicated with delight , and awed by the grandeur and beanty of the scene before me./ < & .way in the dim , hasy distance , shimmering like a burnished mirror against the low brewed hills , was the Platte river. With a spy-glass I could plainly eeo the Pawnee village , but the spot where Fremont now stands was deso late ; nor did I dream that a town of any pretersiona would ever be built there. Then came the Rawhide , with ita yellow fringe of willows , while at my feet wcnnd the Elkhorn , placidly , ellently , and as I gazed on the WH.DERITESS OF PSAIRIZ , I felt the force of Byron's words : " ' here is a pleasure in the pathless woods , There is a rapture on the lonely shore , There is society where none intrude. To mingle with the universe and feel AVhat I can ne'er express , vet cannot all conceal. " It seems to me but yesterday when Governor Oummlngs convened the legislature. I remember it well It was a conglomerate body of men of all shades of political beliefs , for poll- tics cut no figure in that enrly terri torial election. But I have a dim recollection of "bribery nd crrup - tion" in tint leg'slative ' body , gntve BS it was , and filled with ths sturdy yeomanry of the country. Men were accused of selling their votra for "cor ner lots" 8iid town shares , which were better than gold in those d js , for everybody wanted to be fottuaitte enough'to own property in BOIEO "fu ture great , " iTew towns were laid out in various part * of the territory , with parks end public squares , beautiful sitei far col leges , etc. , and every town was to be a county sat ! Men had their pockets fnll of "snares , " which they consider ed R fortune ; politics wera forgotten in the dia and rush and scramble for town lots , town shares , and " jima. " Some sold cheap ; q era were held at exhorbi'.a-'rra ' eSi Shares in proper ti rni wars sold and bartered in every conceivable way. Snrne you coald buy for a pinchbeck Batch , a pistol , riflea snol-gun ; others werocsah , at from $100 to 55,000 per share , a lot , or claim. OF ALL THOSE TOWNS , represented on paper , I doubt if there are half a di.zsn in existence to-aay. But in the height of the speculative era , in the year 1857 , tlie crash came , nd will-cat stocks sr.d money , with which the territory was deluded , be came absolutely worthless. Men who counted themselves rich ono day were beggers the next. Men who had had unliro'ted ' credit , because they had unlimited - limited wraith in wild Cit stocks could not get credit for a sack of Sour. But a healthy reaction came. The speculative era over , men went to work , and the prosperity of Nebraska has been constant and steady ever since. The town proper of Fonienelle was laid out on n beautiful bluff , over looking the Sikhorn river , but for convenience to wood and water the pilgrims had erected log cabins near the river , on what was knovfii - the "Davis clatm. _ " 0. , : na { ow' , , 8ite the erectio rt dwelling houass wai pro- trVesinif , and a hotel and stoi'o was be ing built by W. H Davis. The Fen ienelle college building , the hoiiso of Postmastpr Uichirdpoii Mill r. for other buildings were either finished or in course ct"c mipldtion , when a bloody tragedy waa enacted , which filled the hearts of the aett'era with terror. One Sunday , in July , 1850 , wo were sealed nt dinner in my father's cabin , when n vroman raahed exciteJly into the house exclaiming , "The Indi ana ! TIIK liTpiAKs AKK COMING ! They have killed my husb > n < l ! " Of courao this caused great alarm and excitemsnl in the settlement. There were only half a dosen men rst home at the time , and after ft liunied consultation it wai decided to move the wonOn and children to the reaideccea on the hill. Why this deci sion I un not knowj as th y were just as safe behind the "tout logs in the lower , as HI tlioupptr town , braidej taking them to f'o upper town Mas only to oxpaso them to ( U-olh cholild any considerable t6dy or luduns make their appearance. But no time wag to ba lost ; the Indiana were coming , and hastily puttin' horsco to wagons , the entire population reichoa thu hill houses in safety. Wo then learned that Mr. John Djnsrce , Rged about 22 , and Mr. Porter , husband of the woman above referred to , had been murdered by the Indians within a qu.-.rter of n nislo of the sottleu.ent. Both had claims on Bell Crock , six miles from Fontetiollo , nd were accustomed tc work on their claims most of the week , and corao to town Saturday evening. This time they delayed until Sunday morning and were mot by a party of Sioux who surrounded the waijon. Seeing the Indians looked threatening and wicked , Porter reached for his gnu , and was immediately shot dead. Demarco then seized Porter' * gnn , but he was instantly shot dead also. Mrs. Porter escaped amid A SUOWT.R OF AKKOWS and received a very bid wound in the thigh from which an arrow was hang Ing when aho entered the cabin. It has always been a mystery to me , why the Indians allowed Mra. Porter to escape. They could have killed her as easily as the others. They cer tainly knew she would alarm the settlement. But in seems they did not even pursue her. Had they killed her they oould have swooped down on our little settlement , surprised and murdered every soul , for we wcra ill prepared at that time for an Indian raid. My theory of the affair Is , that they were so intent upon plundering the wagon , that they did not fully realize their fault in allowing Mra. Porter to escape uutil it was too late. Of conrse thu Indians saw the flying settlers on the move , and know all that was going on. And they must have laughed at the idiotic folly of the whites in giving them such a chance both for blood and robbery. But it seems that the murder cf Porter and Demareo had sathlied their cravings for blood , and they were then bent on booty , for after the settlers had left their homes by the river the Indians oame and stole every thing they ould lay their hands on or could pack on their ponies. In these days we had no plastered houses. To have a house comforta bly chinked and daubed with mud , was quite respectable. To have the walls and ceilings lined with white rauilin was considered aristocratic. Plastered walls may have beou dream ed cf in tha dim future , but no one had THE BKAZEN IMPUDENCE to asecrt his superiority over his neighbors by building walls of real lime , hair and plaster at that time. Thcso things came later , with other luxuries and ills of the nmch of em pire.Some Some of the cabins by the river were owned and peoplsd by aristocrats of the period ; that is , they were lined with white shooting , somewhat yellow and dingy perhaps from smoke , but it looked wbilo to the pilgrims. Tbij the Indians cut from the walls. The wretches deliberately "unplastered" all the palaces by the river , and when they had piled all the things they could on the backs of their ponies , , they filed slowly away through the bond of the rlrer , to the great joy of the people who had scouts watching them from the hill tops. There were thirty of the Indians , and the Paw nees reported to ns afterward that they were their most deadly enemies the Santee Sionx. A messenger was hurriedly dis patched to Omaha for aid , and a party formed to pursue the Indians. The men who followed their trail found it strewed with articles the Indians had been forced to throw away. Here was found an iron kettle , there a saucepan , there _ a dipper , shovel , etc. , so that for miles the course of the fugitives was plainly visible. .But the Indians were too far ahead , and the chase was finally given up. It was a foolhardy \hing to do , at best , for that handful of white men to pursue a band of sivages who outnumbered them five to one. But that lUtlo band of excited , angry men wera brave to a fault , and now that their women and children were ssfe they were bent on ICS1SBXSO THE INDIANS if they caught them. It was after wards learned that after the Sioux crossed the Rawhide their flight was greatly hurried by the appearance of a party of Pawnees , and tiat they were thereby compelled to' nnload i most of/thelrstolen luggage. Gov. Thayer responded to the ap peals of our ponpla for help , and a company of volunteers , enlisted to serve for 'Miree months or daring the war , " was at once dispatched to the scene of action. Tlia town of Fon- teuella van put under martial law , and , for a time , eivrvbody who could fhou'der ' a BUII was a "bould sogor boy " I shall nevet forget the loud buzzis and JnyJous greeting sccorJed to tint red shifted , slouoh-hnt'ed c rapny of s ildiers as thay raarohed into the set- dement from Omaha. Tcey were a picturesque eet c f men ) eaier and will ing to meet tha fde * so they said ; at all events we felt that the "couu'ry was safe" for the time being The new-comars were qmta an ad dition to the settlement , " and times were lively. What games of euchre , old filedge , and poker , the boys used to have ! The tedious hours must be whiled array somehow i the troops must have something to do , or they would actually become lazy. So between watching for Indians who didn't come , dancing , playing card * , and eating , our brave defenders managed to put In abont fifteen hours R doy very com * fortably. To bo A flOOD CARD PLAVEft in those days wzS an accomplishment to ba proud of. Brave men and lovely women talked about such and sought their company , and them was no end to the invitations to ' 'take a hand" in the game. Why , I would rather have been a good euchre player then than to ba president. With an enthusiasm unbounded , on my part , I was mustered into the ser vice by Capt. Kline , and shouldered my musket with all the ardor and im portance of so grave a duty. And as I walked my boit in the broad bcants of day I felt , that I alone , Unaided , was a match Tor any number of the enemy. Wouldn't I iust like 'j sea a redskin asinlo : aSfl , , Wouldn't I pepper I-ffl ; ! fhen I would draw i-p liiy gun , sight nt imaginary ludi nns and count their scalp * dangling at. my belt in my mind. "Brave ? Why , I eomeUmcB worked myself up into aiich a rage that I am certain I would have weighed a ton hd I been placed on the hay scales. And Would a sin gle Indian , or any considerable body of Indian ? , want to fool around a boy who weighed a ton ? Tha rest of the boys and men felt about as I did. We used to "fifjht our ba.tles o'er acoin" every day , and file up da d IndUns in our ruimlsMa hl h ai the Alpa. But at night I generally felt weaker than t did in drtytime , and not nearly Kfl brave : .especially it the night was tlaOk and I had to go on guard duty. I always preferrel on such occasions to bain the honaa with the boya play ing old aledgH or euchre. Oiio dark niylit , wbila treading my lonuly bsat , I saw an INDIAN CKAWLINO ON Ills HANDS ithd kaoes toward mo. I saint ted and watched. At first I thoucht 1 wou'd go to the house , nut fat off. and got a < Uhik , brCanse I happened to ba very thirsty just at that tiim. But when the dreadful thought flashed acroes my mind thrt I niigtit bo shot for desert- in ? my p'lst ' in time of w r , I con- cludatl to remain. If the blooJy sav- aye put an arrow through me I would have the proud eatisf-tction of know ing I did not divert ilio ehip , fo to apeak , bat , like a here , died at my post of duty , tQ bo embalmed inverse verso and story with GttiSiibianca and Waahineton'a little hatohot , and my memory indellibly onpravod iu the history of the early daya of Nebraska tl'.e days which tried men's souls and clothes and pockets. So I squitted and watched the In dian creep. I could watch him just as easily squatting as standing. Pret ty soon my hair began to raise "like bristles on the fretfnl porcupine. " I nuppo'e this was caused by electricity in the air. Soon I saw a pair of fierce , bloody relentless cruel eyes gleaming on mo through the darkness. Then T had a notion to go over to the bouse and see how the the game was going on. I wanted a chew of tobacco and several other things I wanted to tell my mother I was out. I wasn't a bit scared , but I wanted to see if the folks mere all well , and if there wore any Indians crawling up from the other side. But I didn't go -I looked again and the grass waafull' of live , able-bodied sayages./1 Baw scores of them and fancied I'waB encircled by a cordon of Indians , all bent on deeds of blood. Then I determined to bring matters to a crisis to open tbo fight all along the line to fire at the foe and etriko one blow , single-handed and alone , for NEBRASKA AND THE ONION ! But I didn't just then , I Trailed a little while. Then the wind rustled around quite sharply , and I heard the whiz. ! whiz 1 whiz 1 of numerous arrows in close proxmity to my mind. It was a terrible moment. The fate of the settlers hung upon my action. I drew up my musket , siehtod at something and then fired. "Oagh ! " "Oush ; ! " "Oagh ! " Some thing or somebody bounded away with loud Brunts. The settlement was aroused. The long roll boat to arms. People rushed out pell-mell , and the loud command of "lall-in boyo , fall- in , " was given by the commanding of- ficew. Old Air. Wlilttier forgot his gun and fell into line with a pitch fork. John Bloomer shoulder a big club ; Judge Richprduen came up to the scratch with a hoe in his hand ; "Old Mike" McDonald took his place in the ranks with a long-handled fry- ln- pan , and Henry Paters rushed to the scene of conflict with hU wife's mop-siictc on his shoulder. Some were hntleas , coatles * , bootless. Tne excitement was intense. But all were o-iger to meet the foe ; and wanted to know where he was. Afcr shooting , I had , like a good soldier , shown my valor by my dis cretion , retro > ted in good order nnd joined the main army. I explained the situation heavy guards were put out , and the weiry troops elept that night on their arms. It was tho'funniest scare the army ever hid , but I was sincere in all I did. The next day , while we were laughing at the grotesque appearance of the army the night before , and commenting on THE BLOODY WORK , blndpoon , pitchfork , hoe , mop-stick and Mike's frying-pan would have performed , Henry Sprich came vnto the barracks and said : "Py Shorge poys , Bomopody shoots von off mine hogs lasht night , and kills him to dot like ter teupfel. " I did not remain to hear the comments on this rascally piece of business , but suggested , as I went ont , that It must have been done by the r < > d skins. I conld fill a volume with incidents anecdotes of that memorable campaign and the men connected therewith. Somn are still living , others have gone to the dark chambers of the nnwin- dewed grave. It was the best company of citizen- soldiers I over saw. They were gen tlemen. There was not a rough era a rowdy among them , and from the time of their arrival at FonteneUc until their departure not a complaint was raised against any member of that gallant band. I well remember Major John Clopper , Capt. Cnrran and Lieut. McNeoloy. Others I know , but cannot call them by name. I could never understand why the Quincy colony located Fontenelle on the Elkhorn instead of on the Mis souri or Platte river. Common fore sight should have told those early pioneers neers who picked out the location that if ever a railroad was built west from Omaha it would run along the ] J Platte river. They could have had ' the choice of _ either Elkhorn City or Frtmont. which at that 'iaio were va cant , bjeidua miny oilier OTCr-i'n' ! I - cations for towns on tuo Miss uin nv- Pr not then tik-n.
