WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP.
181
His career, however, was not wholly void of misfortune. From time to time, during a period of fifteen years prior to 1866, he lost a total of about 100 head of eattle-some by the disease called " black leg," and the remainder by the dis- ease called " bloody murrain." This may be said to inelude the bulk of his mis- fortunes, up to the date specified.
During 1866, he purchased the farm in Washington Township, on which he still resides. It consists of 252 acres of splendid land, under an excellent state of' cultivation, and adorned with improvements, highly meritorious and beautiful. The illustration of it in this volume presents an emblem of its real worth.
Frederick W., the second son, still lives at home, having a joint interest with his father in the production of the farm. They cultivate large craps of wheat aud eorn. Their meadows yield abundantly. They are supplied with improved agricultural implements. Their horses are large and strong, and their herd of stock is fine. In faet, growing and feeding eattle for the market they make a specialty.
Mr. Geeseking has never been an aspirant for political honors-content to let others enforee his political principles.
From his boyhood, he has been an earnest, consistent member ol' the Lutheran Church, and now affiliates with the English Lutherau Church, at Fort Wayne.
In the spring of 1873, he journeyed baek to his native land. Paying a visit to his old home, uear Minden, he passed on to behold the wonders of the " World's Fair," then in session at Vienna. The opportunity, too, so favorable, besides visiting Vienna, and very many other eities of lesser consequence, on his way through the Kingdoms of Germany and Austria, he also extended his tour of observation to Berlin, and aeross Prussia, returning homeward by way of London and Liverpool.
Again, in 1876, he visited our own Centennial Exhibition, at Philadelphia. Mr. Geeseking, now u man of sixty-two years, is strong and vigorous, hopeful, yet, to enjoy for many years the rich fruits of u life well employed.
REV. FATHER BONNET ROCHE, C. S. C.,
was born January 6, 1832, ut Persignat, Arrondisement of Riom, Puy-de-dowe, Franee. In childhood, he manifested a desire for holy orders, and at a later date, with this end in view, he entered the college at Riom, where he pursued his studies six years. At the end of that tique, he entered the Theological Seminary, where he remained four years ; then entered the Congregation of the Holy Cross, at Les Mans, where he continued his studies l'or the priesthood. On the 18th day of June, 1859, he was ordained priest, and in 1860, left bis native land to take charge ol' a missionary station in Eustern Bengal, India. He remained at his mission seventeen years, and in that period was instrumental in the conversion ol' u large number of souls from idolatry to the Christian religion. He returned to France iu April, 1877, and remained five months ; then, by the order of his Superior, Futher Edonard Sorin, C. S. C., he ciubarked for the United States. with his final destination at the college of Notre Dame, near South Bend, Ind. Five months later, he took charge of the Church of St. Vincent de Paul, in Washington Towe ship, Allen Co., Ind., and is now the Pastor of that congrega- tion. Ilis Church hus a membership of eighty-seven families, or nearly five huudred souls, to whom their Pastor has endeared himself by bis many aets of kindness.
