Tliu town of Hiirliiu is pretty wull
tirrcd ji over the HiuUlun diBnppoainiico
of the .malingers of their pet crenmery ,
in which they Imvu taken BO much pride
and in which they luul much finnncml n.s
well as other interest , The Herald of
that place given the following details :
Messrs. Closson & Hardie , the man
agers of 'the Harlan creamery , gathered
together their funds Monday night and
left for parts unknown , leaving debts duo
the farmers and teamsters , estimated to
amount to between 8oOO and $1,000.
The history of the undertaking is a long
one , and wo will but give the facts in as
concise manner as possible. Nearly one
and a half years ago several of our enter
prising men saw the necessity of estab
lishing this business in Harlan for the
good of the town and community. They
formed a company and put up and fur
nished the building at a cost of 3,400 ) ,
not a cunt of which has been returned to
them , either in interest or as rent.
The names of these gentlemen are T.
Ledwich , J. S. Murray , J. M. Long , D.
M. WylandT. . D. Pratt and John
Coenen. Mr. Hardie canto hero from
Marshalltown , where lie had been em
ployed by Mr. Brown , one of the most
successful creamery men in the state
and formed u partnership with Mr.
Closson , his brother-in-law , to carry on
the business , neither having any cap
ital , since which time they have had
control and managed the nllairs. The
general impression is they have laid by
considerable money , as they made an
excellent quality of butter , which mot
with a ready sale at a remunerative
price. Mr. Closson hits always been
credited with honesty , and lias held the
ollico of mayor and justice of the peace ,
and his action was a great surprise to
the community at' large. His family is
left here with comparatively nothing ,
The men who first started the entorpri.su
have now taken charge of the creamery
and p'ut Mr. W. 11. McKinzio in as sup
erintendent who has had full charge of
the butter-making for some time post ,
and who perfectly understands the busi
ness t < > the smallest detail. Farmers are
well acquainted with the men now , in
charge and can have no fear of losing
anything owing to their excellent finan
cial standing. Attachments were sworn
out before Esq. Weaver at a late hour
Monday night , and the stock of cream on
hand , amounting to seven hundred
pounds , levied upon. They were in fa
vor of O. C. Eaton , Jas. McConnell ,
Pratt Bros. , and Blotcky Bros. , the
amount of the claims being in the neigh
borhood of § 200.
Since the above was written other vic
tims have been heard from. The com
mission firm of "Manton it Co. , Now York
city , advanced ? 5,000 over one year ago ,
for the egg packing _ business , which is
almost a total loss to 'the linn. One of
the members , whp is here investigating
afl'airs , states they would willingly ad
vance that much more , such was then
faith and and trust in , Mr. liar-
die's integrity. As in the star route
cn.su , wu rise to ciiquiie what haa bcconu
of the funds ?

I rend this little i > : irn rnpli and niy
mind went back | ix years. 1 know John
llrishcn , and I also know his twin brother
Joseph. _ I was familiar with the details
of the action that placed John Hrishen in
u felon's cell , and now when thu sad af
fair is brought back to mind no vividly I
must write it out , for never boforu Imvu 1
inut , in prosu or poetry , in real lifo or in

tor-of-fact John lirisbon.
The llrisbens camu of good stock. I
think thu great grandfather of my hero
emigrated to Kentucky when Kenton's
Station , between thu present city of
Maysvillu and thu historic old town of
Washington , was thu principal settlement
on thu "dark and bloody ground. " Ho
ciuno from Upper Pennsylvania and lo
cated about tivu miles from the Ohio
river , on Limestone creek. 'Ilu was an
industrious , strong-limbed , iron-hearted
old fellow , and in n few years his sur
roundings weru of the most comfortable
description. Ono of his sons , Edwin
Drisben , once represented Kentucky in
the federal congress. 1 think huwas the
grandfather of John and Joseph Drisben ,
Their father's nrtino was Samuel , and hu
died when they weru little children , leav
ing his widow an excellent blue grass
farm ami a snug little fortune in stocks ,
bands and mortgages. Tlio widow re
mained a widow until her death.
Airs. Samuel lirishun was a good woman ,
and sjio idolized her twin boys. Like
most twins , the brothers resembled each
other in a striking manner , and oven in-
timatu acquaintances could not tell them
apart. But although thu physical re
semblance was so strong there was great
dissimilarity in the dispositions of the
twins. Joseph Itrisben was very snrly
and morose , sometimes cunning and
revengeful. Iluas withal a dreamer
and enthusiast ; a man wull learned in
books , a brilliant , frothy talker when ho
chose Ut bo sociable ( which was seldom ) ,
a splendid horseman , and a mo.it excel
lent shot. John llrishcn , on thu con
trary , was cheerftil and bright ,
honornblo and forgiving. IIo was
a man of high moral principle ,
intensely practiciu and methodical , eared
little for books , and , although he said
but little , was a splendid companion.
He was n poor horseman , and 1 don't
think hu ever shotn gun in his lifo. lie
saw nothing of thu poetry of life , and as
for sport , hu enjoyed himself only when
hard at work. Ho loved his brother , and
when they weru boys toguther sullured
punishment many times , and uncomplain
ingly , that "Jodio" might go scot free.
His lift , was therefore onu constant sacri
fice , but thu object of this loving adora
tion made but shabby returns for this un-
seltish devotion.
They weru i0 ! years old when thoii
mother died very suddenly. Joseph
made u great pretense of grief and war
so hysterical nt thu grave that hu hud tr
bo led away.
John , on the contrary , never demon
strative , took tlio grunt allliction with his
customary coolness. He said but little
and shed no tears.
The property left to the boys was con
siderable. Tlio day they wore 'twenty-
one years old thu trustees met and inuiu
settlement. Tliero was thu bluo-grnsi
fnnn valued at 850,000 , nnd $100,000 ii
well invested securities , which could h <
turned into money. Joseph demanded i
d\viaion. \
"Von can tnko thu farm , .lack , " h
said. "I was never cut out font farmer
Give mo S"f > ,000 in monuyfor my share. '
So this sort of n division was made
John continued on at thu homestead
working in his plain , methodical way , am
slowly mlding to his share of the mono ;
what hu could rnisu out of thu profits o
thu farm. Joseph , with his newly nc
imired wealth , set tip an establishment a
tno nearest town and began a life of pleasure
uro of the grosser sort. Jlis brother gavi
him no advice , for hu know it was usu
less. Joseph spent his money with grun
prodigality , nnd before he know it hu wa
n beggar. In thy meantime John's $25 ,
000 had doubled itself. Ono day Josupl
came to him with n full confession of hii
pecnliary troubles.
"Jack , " hu said , "I am not only i
beggar , but I am heavily in debt. Hob
me out liku a good fellow , nnd 1 wil
settle down nnd bngin life in sober earn
est. With my capacity for business
can soon make money enough to re pa ;
you. I Imvu sown my wild oats , am
y , with n little help I can soon recover nl
I that I have squandered so foolishly. "
For nn answer John Brisbon placei
his inline to an order for the $25,000 h
hnd cnrncd so laboriously.
"Will that bo enough , Jodiu ? " hi
asked , "because I have as much moru
which you can hnvu if it it is necos
sary. "
"This will bo Hiilllciunt , old fellow , '
was thu reply. "In two yci rs I will pu
it back. "
Ho went back to town , drew his moil
oy , paid his debts , mild Home of hi
horses and discharged several of hi
servants. Twenty thousand dollars wrn
left out of the loan. He invested this ii
business , and for n while seemed to hav
really reformed. John was encourage
to say :
"Jodiu will come out all right. Hu i
smarter than I , and in five years will b
worth more money than I could maku i
n life time. "
In less than three yearn Josunh Brit
bun's affairs were in the hands of liiserei
itors , and a shurilfs oflicer closed out h :
u-1 business. Again ho turned to his brotl
u > ' or for liulp and sympathy.
"I own that I managed n trifle can
lossly"ho said by way of uxplanatioi
Experience is n dear' teacher , nnd tli
lesson I have learned I shall never forgo
If yon come to my assistance now I en
soon recover myself. "
Once more John Itrisben placed Ii
name to n check payable to thu order c
his brother , and Joseph entered into hn
again . In two yearn ho was a bnnl
rupt."I .
"I shall never succeed in businesi
Jack , " liu iid. "Help mo out of th
trouble nnd I will live with you on tl
farm. 1 shall succeed as a farmer. "
It took all of John lirisbun's hoard '
pay his brother's debts , but ho mndo i
complaint , uttered no reproach , I
snid :
M nm glad you are ( Mining back to tl
farm , Jodie , You need do no work , mi
wo will bo very happy together. "
So Joseph took un bin residence nt tl
farm , and remembering his brothel ;
words , devoted his timu principally
hunting , fishing -and riding about tl
country. In tlio memitimu John Brisbi
had fallen in love , mid the daughter of
neighboring farmer , Com p ton by nnni
was his promised wife. Being a man
strict honor himself , and having full co
( Of
1m ildonco in his brother , he did not objt !
when Joseph began to pay his aftianced
very marked attention. I
" 1 am glad hu likes her , " ho thought. I
" 1 run n busy on the farm that 1 liavo
little timu for pleasure , and Alice is so
fond of amusement. "
One night Joseph came to him just as
thu shadows of evening were beginning to
fall. There was a triumphant ring in
his voice as hu spoke.
"Jack , old boy , " hu said , holding out
his hand , "congratulate me. 1 think
that from to-day I can datu the beginning
of n now lifo , Alice Compton has prom
ised to be my wife. "
IIo was too much engrossed with his
new happiness to see thu ell'cct of this an
nouncement ns portrayed on John's face.
Ho did not notice how the strongman's
hand trembled in his own.
"Is this truuf" faltered John at last.
"Why. of course it is. Aru you not
glad ) Wu love each other , and shall be
very happy. "
" ' \Volovoencliother nnd
, shall be
very happy I1 "repented John mechanical
ly , and all thu sunshine of his lifo sunk
behind the heavy cloudsof despair. "Yes ,
Jodio , I nm glad , and I wish you long
years of happiness. "
Ho turned nway and staggered , rather
than walked , to his own room , IIo did
not stir all night. Once n deep , sobbing
groan struggled to his lips , nnd the moon
beams struggling througn the window fell
full upon his face , nnd surprised two
ureat tears stealing down his pale cheeks.
Hu brushed nway this evidence of weak
ness and sorrow , nnd when thu morrow
came , no ono looking into his calmserene
eyes would have guessed how hard was
thu buttle that had been fought nnd won
in that lonely chamber ,
Tliuy were married , .and the man re
jected by thu bride and supplanted bj
thu groom was thu first to congratulat *
the nowly-married pair. A vacant house
on tlio farm was fitted up for their rceep
tions and John Brisbon s money paid foi
the furnishing.
"Hereafter , Jodio , " ho said , wo will
divide the profits of the farm. I don' !
need much , nnd you shall have the largei
share. "
Tun years passed away , and John
Brisben , an old man before his timu , still
worked from dawn till dark that hit
brother might play tlio gentleman and
keep in comfort the largo family whicli
thu years had drawn around him. It had
been necessary to mortgage the old
homestead , to raise mony to pay Joseph't
gambling dubts , for of late years ho hail
played licaviy and had invariably lost.
Ono day it was in tint summer of 1871
n forged chock was presented nt ono ol
the banks nt the shire town , by Josupl
Brisben , and tlio money for which il
called wns unhesitatingly paid over U
him. Hu was under the influence o ;
liquor at the time , and deeply interested
in a game of cards for high stakes , whicl
was in progress. The check was foi
82f > 00 , I think. Buforo daylight tin
next morning Joseph Brisben had losl
every dollar of it. To drown his chagrii
ho became beastly drunk , and while ii
this condition an oflicer arrived and up
prehended him for forgery and uttering t
forged chuck Thu prisoner was confinet
in jail , and word of nis disgrace was sun
to John Brisben. The latter read tin
message , and a mist came over his eyes
Hu groaned audibly , nnd but for a stron ;
effort of thu will would havu fallen to th
( leer , so weak was ho by thu shock.
"Shu must not l > now it , " ho said t
himself , and hu made instant preparations
tions to visit his brother. When h
reached thu jail hu was admitted to th
cull of thu wretched criminal. Th
brothers remained together several houn
What. passed during thu interview wil
nuver bo known. When John Brisbu
emerged from thu jail bu went strnigl
to thu magistrate who had issued tli
warrant for the apprehension of .losu ]
Brisben.
" \Sqniru , " ho tun'd in his slow , hesiti
ting way. "You ihavu made a mistake ,
"In what way , Mr. Brisben I" ask t
thu magistrate , who had u high regal
i i for his visitor.
"You have caused thu arrest of a
innocent man "
"But " began the magistrate.
"Issue an order for my brother's it
slant release. Ho is innocent of the ii
tout to do wrong. I mn thu guilty mm
I forged thu name of Charles Ellison I
the chock which ho uttered. ITu did IK
know that it was a forgery. "
"You ! " cried the astounded magistral' '
"Yon a forger impossible. "
"Nothing is impossible in these days ,
said the whito-haircd old man , sternl ;
"I alone am guilty. My brother is inni
cunt. "
So stoutly did lie aver that ho was tl
forger that the magistrate reluctant ]
issued a warrant for his arrest , and at tl
sumo time wrotu an order to the jailer fc
the release uf Joseph llrisbon.
"My constable will bu in soon , " sai
the magistrate , but thu old huro picki
up both tlio papers.
"I will not trouble him , " ho said ; '
will oxucutu both papers. "
And ho did. Handing the juili
both papers , hu explained their mcanii
thus :
"They have niadu a mistake. It is
who nm to bo your prisoner. My brothi
is innocent. "
Accordingly Joseph Ilrisbon wua r
leaned and returned to thu farm. Jol
remained at jail a prisoner , When tl
extraordinary affair became known , so
oral prominent citizens ofl'ored to go (
the accused man's bond , but ho won
not accent their kind ofliccH. At tl
trial ho plead guilty , and WOH oontenci
to fifteen years' imprisonment at ha :
labor in tlio penitentiary. Joseph can
to sue him before lie was removed
Frankfort , but their interview was
private ono.
Joseph Brisben remained at the fan
but ho was a changed num. From tl
day of his release from jail down to t !
time of his death , he was never known
touch a card , and a drop of liquor n'ev
Dasscd his lips. Last April ho died , ai
nia confession , duly sworn to before
justice of thu peace , was made pub
after his burial. In substance it w
this : Tlntt he was guilty of forgery ! '
which his heroic brother was 8Ull'criii ( .
. long imprisonment.
"It was my brother's wish , not mine
reads the document , "Ho insisted tli
ho who had no ties of blood or marria
could better sutler the punishment a :
