HISTORY OF ARIZONA.
nothing calculated to build up Prescott or the Territory ever failed to find in him an advocate. He was a good neighbor; a kind friend, and a bitter enemy. Especially was he devoted to the old timers of whatever creed or nationality, who had shared with him the trials and disappoint- ments incidental to the early settlers of the Ter- ritory. He was a great admirer of General Crook, because Crook had subdued the hostile Indians in Arizona, particularly those around Prescott. He was an original character; could write a very humorous article, full of wit and sarcasm, yet had no sense of humor. He was never governed in the selection of words by any dictionary. When he wanted a word he would coin one, and the word itself would explain its meaning.
Personally he was about as homely a man as ever stood upon two legs. In speaking, even in a public address, which, on rare occasions he in- dulged in, he spoke in a monotone, and his utter- ances seldom failed to bring down the house because of his originality. In 1883, at a banquet extended to General Crook by the citizens of Prescott, at which many ladies were present, Marion was called upon for a speech. It ran somewhat in this wise:
"We have had many generals here to fight the Injuns, but Crook is the only one who ever suc- ceeded. We had Stoneman; Stoneman was a good fighter, he built a good many roads, and did a good deal of work, but he couldn't fight Injuns. Wilcox had a big reputation as a Civil War soldier, but he couldn't fight Injuns; he had the piles ; and so it was with the balance both before

and after Crook came. When Crook come he made the Injuns hunt their holes, and we've had peace in northern Arizona ever since."
When T. L. Bullock undertook to build a road from Ash Fork to Prescott, John Marion was his ardent friend, and supported him in every way possible, not only through the columns of his paper, but also by money contributions, and when the road was completed, he, of course, was among those who had a general jubilation meeting in Prescott, welcoming the arrival of the first train. Among other things Marion said: "I was here when two men right across Granite Creek were killed by Injuns, and when we had to sleep every- where on our guns, and when it took a lady's stocking full of gold dust to buy a sack of flour, and everything else in the same proportion. They tried to get my scalp, both the Injuns and the white men but, damn 'em, I'm still here." He sold his interest in the Miner about the year 1876, and a few years thereafter started the Prescott "Courier."
He was loyal to his friends, and particularly loyal to his home and his home people. lived a great part of his life in Prescott, endured all the trials and hardships of an early pioneer in that locality, he laid aside his party preju- dices, being a strict Democrat, and numbered among his friends and associates Republicans who, like himself, were pioneers. It was his custom after closing his office, and when going to his home, to spend an hour every day with Judge Fleury in talking over old times. "Old Grizzly" and Col. H. A. Bigelow, both strict adherents of the opposite party, were his warm

personal friends. When Cleveland was elected in 1884, and Zulick was inaugurated the first Demo- cratic Governor of the Territory in 1885, he gave the influence of his paper to the cordial support of his administration until, in 1889, at the begin- ning of the session, Zulick signed the bill to re- move the Capital to Phoenix. Thereafter the "Courier" could not be numbered as among his political friends. He did not fail in his editorials to criticise in his rough and homely manner the course of the Governor, for with him, in this in- stance, the duties of a citizen were paramount to party.
John Marion died July 27th, 1891, the records. of the Masonic Lodge at Prescott showing that he was, at that time, 56 years of age. His death occurred in the morning. He had gone to the well for a bucket of water, placed the bucket on the porch and fell dead from heart disease. He occupies an unmarked grave in the Masonic cemetery at Prescott. Peace to his ashes.
