thut Noola had some of the ' 'strongest play

was too much for Neola. A wager ofV ) , or

Itcmlnlscenc s of nn Old Settler1.
"Thirty-five years airo to-morrow I took
the first family across the Missouri river
from this city that ever settled in Omaha , "
remarked Mr. Benjamin Winchester us ho
stepped Into THE UEB ofllco yesterday morn-
ng. "Anyone would scarcely bellevo It , to
look nt that wonderful city to day ; but it is
a fact that on the morning oC July 25 , 1864 ,
; hero wns not a dwelling or shanty of any
dnd where Omaha now stands , and now
.hey claim a population of 140,000 people. It
Imrdly uems possible , but the old settlers
liero Imvo witnessed seine astonishing
changes.
"I came to the Bluffs that same- spring ,
landing hero ou the 17th of May. It was
aDout that time that the old ferry company
organized , and they wanted mo to go across
the river and start a brick yard. The re
sult was that on the 25th of July I took a
family named" Duell over there to board my
nclp. Wo put up a little shanty on the oral-
rlo somewhere southwest of Stoclo & John
son's , and that was the first building erected
there. At that tlmo there wns not u sign of
human habitation nearer than where Flor
ence is now , and there were only n couple of
miserable dugouts up there. To the south
and west there was not a trace of civiliza
tion.
tion."All
"All nroun where the center of the city is
now was a heavy growth of grass , and I
used to r.tt fodder for my horses down
around wticro the postofllco Is now located.
Uack among the hills was a growth of scrubby
timber , and oil to the south was a lot of
pretty fair sized trees. There wasn't a thing
to indicate that in a few years those hills
would be covered with handsome nnd sub
stantial business blocks , from four to ton
stories tngn , in the center of ono of the most
prosperous cities in the country.
"Well , to go on with my part of it : Wo
rmulo all our preparations , and after a whllo
I burned my first kiln of about sovonty-flvo
thousand brick there. It so happened that
it was the last one. You see , the ferry com
pany claimed a tract of land a milo square/
and thcro were several parties who hud gene
over from the Lilufts and staked out .claims
buck from the river , and the tract claimed
by the ferry company cut into some of them.
These parties did not live on their claims ,
but they proposed to hold them just the
same , and they swore that if they couldn't
hold It there should bo nothing done there.
I intended going right along with my brick-
making , but they begun to break ut > every
thing and I had to quit. Duell only stayed a
little while , and then started west to find u
tract of land that suited him , and I got Bill
Snowdbii to take his place. His was the
second family iu Omaha , and I guess ho is
thcro yet.
The squatters were determined to run mo
out , and 1 had a pretty tough time of it. Ono
day I toolcovor two chain pumps and sot
them up , but that night they turned
in and smashed them to pieces.
I bad u canvas top made for my Kiln by some
woman on this side , and I took it over and
stretched it in placo. 1 had un old fellow
employed to watch the kiln , but ho was so
blind that ho couldn't see six feet from his
noso. Well , the squatters made a visit ono
night to destroy the canvas top. They cut
the ropes on ono side , and that startled the
watchman. lie started after them with an
axe , but they kept running around the kiln ,
cutting and slashing as they went , and in a
little while the canvas was cut up so that
they could pick it up and carry it off , and
they loft the watchman still chasing around
the kiln with his axe , too blind to fully under
stand what was going on.
At that time Dr. Lowe , Dr. Bollard , Sam
Bay lisa and Jim Jackson were all hero , mem
bers of the ferry company , and they wanted
mo to try to keep along. lr. Lowe offered
mo the whole block between Thirteenth and
Fourteontn streets , opposite ) Milton Rogers'
pluco , if I would stay , but I told him I could
not put up with U , u& they wcro cutting mete
to pieces , and I was losing what little money
I had.
"Tho upshot of the wbolo matter was that
they bought mo out , and I parted with my
property at quite a sacrifice. I then wont
back to 1'itts burg and got my family. The
railroad only cumo as far as Hock Island ,
and it took two or three weeks to cross the
state. When I got back , Omaha had exper
ienced bar Ilrst boom , and there were six or
eight HttlohouRcs thcro , 1 remained on this
side of the river and went into the bncu bus
iness , and burned all the brick that went into
the older buildings in this city ,
"My cxporienco on the othur side of the
river was quite varied aud often exciting.
Ono day We started out to mow a swath
around the ferry company's land with u
scythe , and we killed sixteen rattlesnakes in
going around that nulo tract. There were
plenty of lights with squatters , and hardly a
week passed that wo didn't have a dead man
to carry back across the river. When they
had the McHenry light , down at Bellevue ,
bore wora two killed , and we brought
them over to the Bluffs for burial.
Indians were not scarce in these days , and
Rattlers were killed by them every llttlo
whllo. They would make a raid occasion
ally , nnd give the squatter * a red hot fight. 1
tell you , those were exciting times , and I
don't want to see thorn repented. U doesn't
seem to very long to look back over those
thirty-five years , but when I loolc around and
see what has boon accomplished In that
tlmo , I can scarcely comprehend It. It seems
as if it must bo a dream , but the evidences
of progress ou every side are altogether too
real for imagination. Yes , sir , all these
changes are bounded by a period of thirty-
flvo year . ' _
