Early in 1861 there was a report of Indians about a mile cast of Greenville, and south of the Correctionville road.


on the Little Sioux, and the company went over to Smithland and on up the Little Sioux to Correctionville, hearing of Indiaus but not encountering any. They were met by another company of men under Captain Morton, from abont Melbourn in Plymouth county. Small parties of men were detailed to the different houses around the Correctionville settlement to aet as guards for the night. Sergeant I. W. Stevens, with Isaac Pendleton, William Roberts, N. W. Pratt, Adam Faulk and per- haps one more, were sent to the house of Mor- ris Kellogg, near the Sioux.


In the night the Indians were observed chas- ing horses in the pasture, trying to catch them. The soldiers' horses were in the log barn near the house, the door of which was closed with a chain. The Indians came toward the barn, seven of them, and as Sergeant Stevens said, when the first one came around the barn in sight, he warned the men at the house not to shoot until all of them came in view in front of the barn, but William Roberts got excited, and by accident or nervousness discharged his gun in opening the door. This drew the fire of the Indians into the door. Roberts was shot in the breast, from the effects of which he died about four months afterward. Mr. Pen- delton was shot in the forehead with a bale which glanced, inflicting a flesh wound. The Indians then fled down the river bank ont of sight. It is said that Mr. Pendleton, who was afterwards District Judge, was angered the in- stant the ball hit him, and instantly ran out of doors, calling upon his associates to charge, but the enemy was out of sight. As soon as it was light enongh the company started in pursuit, following the trail most of the day.


Shortly after the affray at Correctionville on July 9th, Henry Cordua and Thomas Roberts, a brother of the William Roberts shot at Cor- rectionville, two much esteemed citizens, went out from Sioux City with a wagon to gather some new potatoes in a field in Bacon Hollow


The men not returning that night, their wives became anxions and went to their friends but it was not deemed prudent to go in the night, so in the morning at daylight several members of the military company went out to try to find them. They first found the wagon, the horses being gone. Cordna was found first. Ile was lying on his back, his fingers gripped in the armholes of his vest. He was shot in the stomach, and the grass was tramped down for a rod square, probably by him in his death struggle. Roberts was found next by JJ. W. Stevens. He lay with his leg curled under him, his hand on his heart ; shot through the back, the ball lodging in the pahn of his hand, and a full pail of water by his side. Ile evidently had gone down to the ereck for a pail of water, and was shot on his way back, about the time they were getting ready for din- ner.


The company started at once in pursuit and followed the trail up above where LeMars is, 'and camped that night, having had nothing to eat that day, having started before breakfast. Captain Tripp thought under the cirem- stanees it was useless to pursne farther, so the party returned home.


In the fall another expedition was made to Spirit Lake by a company, stopping some ten days at Cherokee, but encountered no Indians, and then this company was disbanded as an organization. It was never mustered into ser- vice. It had received from the Governor about forty muskets of the old Harper's Ferry make. It had answered its purpose, and had protected the settlements, and made the roving Indians shy of this region.


Captain A. J. Millard in the summer of 1861 organized a company properly called the Sioux City Cavalry Company, recruited from this and other counties, which operated in this part of the state against the Indians in 1861, 1862 and 1863; went with General Sully in his expedi-


820

tion against the Indians in Dakota as his body guard and at the battle of Whetstone Hill took 136 prisoners, and later that year were consoli- dated with the Seventh Iowa Cavalry as Com- pany "I" and remained about Sioux City till mustered out in the fall of 1864.


News of the New Ulm, Minn., massacre reached the nearer settlement at AAlgona in the latter part of August, 1862, and the citizens held a meeting, at once a volunteer company was raised, and a committee was sent to Des Moines to procure from Governor Kirkwood arms and ammunition, and for authority to put the company in proper form; they sent another committee to Minnesota for information as to the massacre and threatened danger. In view of this and information from other places, Governor Kirkwood on August 29, 1862, made an executive order authorizing S. R. Ingraham of Des Moines, Iowa, to take charge of the work of protecting the northern frontier, prom- ising to send arms and ammunition to Fort Dodge and placed $1,000.00 at his disposal for use where it might be needed, and advised him to communicate with Captain A. J. Millard of Sioux City, commanding a company of mount- ed men raised for United States service. The Iowa Legislature was in extra session and authorizing the raising of troops, and Septem- ber 12, 1862, Governor Kirkwood issued an order for the raising of five companies, one at Sioux City, and for the election of officers and a Lieutenant Colonel. The men were required to furnish their own horses. Five companies were raised from Woodbury and Monona coun- ties, commanded by Captain Jerome M. White. This company was enlisted September 27, and mustered in October 7, 1862.


James A. Sawyer of Sioux City on Novem- ber 7, 1862, was elected Lieutenant Colonel by the men to command the five companies. He had served in the Mexican war in Company E, Tennessee Cavalry, had enlisted in the Sionx City Volunteer Cavalry on September 27, 1861, to go South, but his company was required for


frontier service. He had been elected First Lieutenant in Captain Millard's company un- til August, 1862.


Lieutenant Sawyer in September was at Spirit Lake in temporary command of Captain Millard's company in September when the first companies were being raised. Up to the time of the election of Colonel Sawyer the troops and all arrangements were in charge of S. R. Ingraham.


These troops were distributed from Esther- ville, Iowa, to Sioux City, those nearest being at Correctionville, West Fork, Sioux City, and Melbourn in Plymouth county, opposite where Hinton now is, and acted with Captain Mil- lard's Cavalry, part of whom were at Sioux City and part at Spirit Lake.


As is usual in such cases, the rumors of dan- ger were often the worst farthest from the real seat of war, and all the settlements in North- western Iowa were thoroughly alarmed. A stockade was built at Correctionville.


Colonel Sawyer, soon after his election, in- spected his line of frontier stations, and De- cember 12, 1862, reported to the Governor, and signed his report as Lieutenant Colonel Com- manding Northwestern Frontier Forces, but when the commissions to the officers were re- ceived soon after, there appeared after the name of the company the letters "N. B. B." without further explanation. Nathaniel B. Baker, Adjutant General of Iowa, was written to for information as to their meaning, and he playfully replied that they stood for N. B. Bak- er, or Northern Border Brigade, just as you choose, so in Iowa history these troops are known as the Northern Border Brigade.


There was no trouble with the Indians that fall or winter, but in March, 1863, news came that the Indians had massaered a party of seven Norwegians in Minnesota, and this brought out rumors of Indians all along the line. Colonel Sawyer made reports to the Governor from time to time, and one of April 7, 1863, concerns Woodbury county. Septem-


821


PAST AND PRESENT OF WOODBURY COUNTY


ber 26, 1863, Adjutant General Baker issued an order disbanding the Brigade, but ordering a new company to be organized out of their forces. Captain Jerome M. White with nearly all his men in Company "E" remained and be- came part of the new company.


In the meantime Brigadier General Alfred Sully, commanding the United States Distriet of Dakota, which included sixteen counties in Northwestern lowa, had his headquarters in Sioux City, and from October, 1863, to the end of the year he and the Adjutant General of Iowa exchanged communications whereby the United States Cavalry took charge of the de- fense, and December 30, 1863, this last com- pany of state troops was minstered out of the service.


These troops were in the service and pay of the state, and though the United States was protecting the frontier against Indians it would not pay these Towa soldiers, or give Towa credit for them upon its quota for soldiers for putting down rebellion. No doubt the thorough or- ganization of the troops and their presence pro- tected this section from Indian raids and ont- rages, which otherwise would have been perpe- trated on the people, and for a thimly settled community Woodbury county furnished her share, and counting also Captain A. J. Mil- lard's company, and those who entered other Towa regiments that went sonth, this county has reason to be proud of her record.


Among the things done by the Woodbury county paid border brigade were:


A stockade was built at Correctionville, near where the C. & N. W. R. R. has its freight house.


Another stockade was built at Cherokee.


On the Westfork, near the Plymouth and Woodbury county line, a detachment of the company under John W. Lewis, Agt., built four log honses and stables in the fall of 1862, and put up hay for their horses. Some of the com- pany wintered there.


The Sions City Company, finding that the


flat boat that was used as a ferry across the river inadequate and unsatisfactory, in the spring of 1857 bought a steam ferry boat called the Lewis Burns at a cost of about $7,000.00. The purchase was made through Tootle & Jack- son. This boat was operated for it two or three years by Elijah Robinson, but it was a losing venture. It had paid only $3,000,00 on the purchase price and owed the balance, and August 27. 1859, got an extension of one year by giving a note for the balance of $3,827.02, secured by a mortgage on its lots in the Cham- berlain purchase, and lost them under fore- closure later.


Seth E. Swiggett came from Cincinnati in April, 1856, bringing with him press and material for starting a weekly newspaper. The first number was dated July 4, 1857, and was named the Sioux City, Iowa, Eagle ; a complete file of this paper is in the public library, and contains much of interest. This was probably the first paper published in the county, though Sergeants Bluffs was not far behind, as Com- mings & Ziebach commenced the publication of the Western Independent there in Angust. 1557. Files of this paper are not preserved, so the exact date can not be given. F. M. Ziebach, one of the publishers, is yet alive in South Dakota, and A. M. Holman, who acted as printer's devil, still resides at Sergeants Bluffs. The Eagle in its first issue says : "We learn a paper is to be started at Sergeants Bluffs," which seems to corroborate the claim that the Eagle was first published. After seven or eight months the outfit of the Western Inde- pendent was moved to Sioux City, and the name changed to the Sioux City Register, F. M. Ziebach being proprietor. Later William Freeny bought it. The Eagle was consolidated with it in 1860 and its publication continned until 1861.


The Grasshopper Invasion. Probably no calamity in the history of the county so seri- ously affected the people as the long continued invasion of the grasshopper, and it is hard now


822


PAST AND PRESENT OF WOODBURY COUNTY


to realize that such a scourge could be inflicted upon a people and pass away never to return.


Residents of the present day who were not eye witnesses of the devastation wrought by them and their migrations and habits will hardly believe the true story.


So far as we can ascertain they came or ap- peared in this county in August, 1857, in con- siderable numbers, but there was little crop planted and they did not deposit their eggs, and did no serions damage. They came again in 1864 in July, when they nearly destroyed all cultivated vegetation, and deposited their eggs, which were hatched next spring, and again the new erop was destroyed. They did not on this occasion go farther south or east than Sergeants Bluffs. About September 8, 1867, they appeared in great numbers all over Northwestern Iowa as far east as Boone and Fort Dodge, coming from the northwest in clouds so as to look like a continuous fleecy cloud passing over, and they almost covered the ground in places where they alighted. The writer has counted fifty of them on one stalk of corn, and they would gather on the railroad track in sufficient numbers to stop a train of cars ; that is, the crushed hoppers would so oil the track that the wheels could not get suffi- cient hold. They came down like flakes of snow, and on alighting would eat everything, crops, bark of trees, clothes and would eat the rough exterior of fence boards.


A grain or corn field would be consumed in a few hours. They might go away in a day or two, or stay until they died in the fall, de- positing their eggs in the ground, in which case the eggs hatched in the spring and the young grasshoppers, being then too young to fly, would eat the young grain and corn as it came up. Some farmers sought to protect the new erop by digging trenches around their land into which the young grasshopper would jump unable to get out, and after they were old enough, the latter part of May or June, they would fly away, or perhaps come back, or some


others of their kind appear and eat up any- thing left. Then in the summer the danger was that they would come again and repeat the process.


After they had hatched out in the spring of 1868 and flew away they did not reappear in any damaging numbers till 1873, and the dan- ger was supposed to be over. By this latter date the farming part of the community had filled up considerably, and they did great dam- age, and continued with more or less regularity until 1879.


The distress from the loss of crops in 1873 was so great that petitions were sent to the legislature and an appropriation of $50,000.00 was made to buy seed wheat for the destitute settlers in Northwestern Iowa, and donations were made by public and private charity to aid these destitute families, who in many cases had lost their entire crops.


The destitution in Woodbury county was great, but the then newly settled region north of Correctionville suffered most, and it was known for some time as "Poverty Ridge." It was a veritable scourge, and many abandoned their farms and left the country. At the time of the last invasion, covering a large territory, it would seem as if by some common under- standing, or perhaps the wind being just right, they all started on their departing flight from Sioux City to Ft. Dodge within the same hour.


It would be impossible to give the names of all the settlers who came here in 1856; some of them are yet living, as well as some of those of the earlier years, and many who were chil- dren in those years are yet living. Of those in Sioux City before 1856, there are yet alive George Murphy, Louis D. Letellier, George Weare, Herman D. Clark, Mrs. Mary Ann Sangster, Joseph Leonnais, Jr., born in 1853, Josephine Leonnais Parent, born June 15, 1855, Rose Bruguier Dubois, Julia Bruguier C'onger, living at Yankton Agency, another daughter of Brugnier, Mrs. Foster, lives in


823


PAST AND PRESENT OF WOODBURY COUNTY


New York City, Engene Bruguier lives at Standing Rock, William and Samuel Bruguier are now living up the Missouri river.


There may be some other survivors in the rest of the county. Gibson Bates, the oldest living resident of the county, is yet here, Leon- ard Bates, and his sisters, Mrs. Miller and Mrs.


Beek, are yet alive. We have spoken of many who were in the county in 1856.


The allotted space will not allow us to fol low the history of the county into the later days. when the public records afford material for the historian. We have not aimed to continue in detail after 1856.
