Corrcipondcnco ot Tim Bun
WEEPIXO WATEU , Nob. , March 17
On this beautiful spring morning i
chanced to bo the good fortune of
"Ranger" from Tun BEF. hive t
alight in the brisk and rapidly grow
ing town of Weeping Water Thi
lorely town is situated upon the bank
of n beautiful stream of the satin
name in the central part of Cas
county.
Soon after my arrival I mot am
made the acquaintance of J. B
Moiklo , the attorney of the place
who kindly showed mo around tli
town and introduced mo to the bus !
ness men of the placo. Upon a care
ful inquiry I was able to collect r
few scraps of the history of the town ,
which is about as follows :
The name is derived from an olt
Indian legend , according to which it
soenn that long ago , before the white
man had trespassed upon the hunting
grounds of the dusky tribes , whoi
the powerful tribe of the Otoo natipi
was at war with the Omnhas , while
making one of their usual summer
pilgrimages , the two tribes met bj
chance upon the broad prairies south
jd the Matte , 'and traced n long and
deadly battle , in which every warrior
on cither side was slain. When the
silence apprised the women and cliil
dron of both the tribes that the battle
was over , they came out from both
the camps , and finding their husbands
And fathers all dead , snt down and
wejit. Their tears flowed in such pro
fusion that , being gathered together
in a narrow vale , they lormed a crys
tal fountain , from which over ( lows
the clear and sparkling stream ol
Nohawkn , or the Weeping Water.
The first white settler in Weeping
Water water was William Heed , who
came with his family from Trumbull
county , Ohio , in the spring of 1857 ,
and entered the land upon which the
town now stands. In the same spring
came F. M. Wolcott , then quite n
youne man , trom Summit county ,
O. These two wore the only men in
the place for some years , and arc now
the only ones who remain of the firs !
settlement.
A mill was started upon the stream
at a point within the present corpora
tion then called Weeping Water Falls.
The first postofllco was established
in 1804 , with Mrs. F. M. Wolcott as
postoflico. Her salary for that year
amounted to $13.25 The mail came
in but once a week. In 1805 Win.
JRcod was appointed postmaster , andover
ever since that time the ollico has boon
held by him and his sons.
The town was laid out in 1807 , by
A. B. Smith , surveyor , and incor
porated as a village in 1809. A good
waterj > ewer mill was jbuilt just below
the ] falls , a store and blacksmith shop
started , and the town began to grow
a very slow and steady growth until
the ' year 1880 , when the census showed
population of about'400.
In the summer the engineers loca
ted the Missouri Paoillc railroad
through the very heart of the town ;
rom that time it has had a boom andf
now the population is about 1,000
and constantly increasing.
There are two churches , a graded
school , 25 or 30 stores of various kinda ,
ihreo lumber yards , ono flouring mill
n the town , ono a short distance be-
oiv and another n short distance above ,
town , three hotels in running order
and ' another under headway , ono bank ,
etc. , etc.
The people are energetic and enter
prising i and are bound to have ono of
he best towns in the State.
Wo called at the store of Reed Bros.
Co. , which is a largo double store
room , 44x70 foot , and well filled with
ai immense slock of general merchan
dise. For many years this was the
only store in the town and whoa com-
,
jotitors began to come in stood at the
load of the list and still leads thorn
all in trade. In connection with the
store they have a merchant tailoring
establishment and a bank.
The drug business is well represented - of
sonted by P. S. Barnes and S. W.
Drton. Mr. Barnes is one of the cary -
y settlers and has worked up a good
justness ; has ono of the finest loca-
iuns in the town and a neat and well >
ept storo. 1
Mr. Orton is n new-comer but al
ready ho has acquired a good trade and It
sconiH to bo meeting with unbounded .
success. Ho will hold his own with
the best of them.
Fleming it Itaco occupy n nuw and
Bubsuntml two btory stone building , s
22x80 , with a full stock of genera !
norchaiuliso and are doing a thriving

Potter & Webster deal in watches ,
owplry , sowing machines and muai-
al instruments , They liavo a largo I
tnck and are doing a good business.
hov are advocates of the system of la
naking certain lines of goods a special

rado at once , and their prosperity
hews that they are making a success
it.
it.Hatch
Hatch and Michael deal exclusively
boots and shoos and clothing. They it
lave a good and pleasant storeroom , itc
ut their trade is such that they will i
compelled to enlarge their room at i
early day. Considering the fact h
hat they have been in the town leas $75 ,
han six months speaks well of their Bt
enterprise and business ability. to
Joe F. Parkins doea a rushing busi- fit
loss in agricultural
implements and y <
sells more ttian any other firm in the
county. He has been in thobusines

ovuryMdy in the count } ' , althougl
there oto'other now firms starting in
the business , hia trade h cohstantli

patronge. His ii n largo atone , water
power mill , which is run from ono
year's end to another by the Weopint
Water , and has the reputation of be

PRIVATE DALZBJLIj TREES HIS

Indignation nt Mtvson'a Sentence
Throughout the Woatoni
Reserve
To the Editor ol The Chicago Tribune ,
Siu Sergeant Blasonvia brought
up in Brooktiold tonrnahip , this ( No-
bio1) ) county , and resided within suvon
inilos of this town till the war broke
out. IIo worked on a fixnn nnd wns n
good boy. This is the testimony of
\11 the farmers hereabout , who remem
ber him "a smarl "
as , mannerly boy ,
and who all speak of him in the kind
est terms. IIo was but uighlocn
years old when ho went to Zancavillu
and unlisted in General Legirett's old
regiment , the Soventy-oiiihth Ohio ,
which was recruited laigely from here
about. I have mot several of the
Sovonty-oighth inon recently , and
their uniform testimony is that Mason
waa a bravo soldier during the war for
; ho Uniori. The interest in his caao
a , perhaps , stronger hero than anywhere -
where elao. It is singular , but it ia a
'act , that amoni ; all the boys who
grew up with Mason , and many of
whom served three years in the unny
with him , many of them in the pinmi
mcaa , ho has not 8 single enemy in
: ho whole number. He waa an atnia *
) lo and excellent young man surely ,
) r there could bo found some one
lore in his old homo , where all his
early associates and nearly all his
irmy comrades live , to speak an un-
cind word of him.
It may bo added , right hero two
companies of Garfiold's old 42d Ohio
wcro raised , and several survivors of
: hat regiment reside hero yet. Their
veneration of Garfield ia well known.
For many years past General Gardold
iiad been in the habit of personally
attending the great National soldiers'
reunions for which this place is so
famous , and at all those gathering the
lurvivors of the 42d had the post of
loner in processions , in camp , and in
; ho esteem of Garfiold. Every man
of them was personally acquainted
with Garfield , Their sorrow for his
death ia sincere and inexpressibly
; roat. So when the 42dand 78th men
lore learned' that'Sergeant Mason had
ired at Guiteau , they cheered over it ,
and the only regret they expressed
nras that Mason muaod the murderer.
So good man anywhere could have
any other feeling , unless ho has been
prejudiced and poisoned against the
rcluntoor soldiers at West Point , the
lotbod of all American treason and
military aristocracy. The indignation
of all these old friends of Sergeant
Mason at the brutal sentence of the
court martial ia boundluas. Boston
Jorbett had the only ovation of his
ifo here. In 1874 twenty thousand '
volunteer soldiers shook his hand at
ho National Reunion. A few West
? ointers present spurned him with
contempt. Ho had violated military ot
discipline ( ? ) by killing Lincoln's
nuruoror. That was unpardonable
And so now our man hero have no
