"Young man and young woman, if you want to learn what a couple of youngish people have done, and, consequently, what you may or can do, go visit the farm of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Leslie, of Otisco. Twenty-five years ago they located where they are now without any capital except a homestead right, which they applied to eighty acres. Since then they have added one hundred twenty acres more. There were no trees when they went there in 1869. Now they have a magnificent grove. They have also a large, convenient farm house, an excellent hay and cattle barn, a creamery (dairy) that takes the first premiums everywhere. They milk twenty-four cows, have horses, raise cattle for beef, and hogs for pork. They have all that people need in life. And all these things they have gathered together by twenty-five years of industry, care, and frugality. Young man, there is no reason why you should not do as well."
Mr. Leslie was born in Essex county, N. Y., Sept. 9, 1837; came to Waseca county in 1866; helped survey the village of Waseca in 1867; and lived in Waseca until 1869. He married Mary E.

The first winter he passed here was the hardest he ever experienced. Messrs. Clement, Vinton, and Drum, hought hay of Daniel Riegle, who lived in Blooming Grove. Mr. Clement says: "We drew this hay during the winter of 1856-7. We had three yoke of oxen and two sleds. The snow was very deep and had a sharp crust which cut the cattle's legs so that they refused to go. The men had to go ahead of the teams and tramp the snow to make a track for them, and, as a final expedient, the oxen's legs were wrapped in cloths to protect them from the sharp crust. In this way it took two days to make a trip. Mr. Riegle could not keep us, so we would, on arriving there, load up and return as far as Joshua Smith's where we would stay over night, and next day make home. In this way twenty tons of hay were hauled in bitterly cold weather. We were thinly clad for this climate and suffered intensely from the cold.
"The nearest postoffice that winter was Owatonna, twelve miles away. We used to take turns going after the mail on foot."

John L. Werdin was horn March 10, 1830; Henrietta, his wife, was born Sept. 25, 1835; both were natives of Prussia. They were married Oct. 2, 1853, in the Fatherland. They came to America in the spring of 1857, arriving at Ripon, Wis., April 3, of that year. They remained there a short time, when, with eight other families, they started with ox teams for Minnesota, their destination being Mankato. It was a rainy season which caused them to be two months on the road and to meet with many dis- couragements on the way. Arriving at Mankato, then a small town, they held a consultation and concluded to return to Wilton, this county. Mr. Werdin met with a serious accident at Mankato in the breaking of his ox-yoke. He had no money with which to purchase a new one and no way of making one. Fortunately, Mr. John Sell-now of Waseca-who was one of the party of movers, loaned him sufficient money to purchase a new yoke. Mr. Werdin's first location was on eighty acres of land that
750
CHILD'S HISTORY OF WASECA COUNTY.
he bought of Jo Manthey in the town of St. Mary and that is now owned by Mr. McLoone. His first house was built of logs and was twelve hy sixteen feet in size. For a number of years the Winnebago Indians lived in close proximity, and, while they were peaceable, they were constantly begging tood from their white neighbors, thus making the lives of the new settlers a great hardship; for food, at this time, was high priced and scarce. During the Indian outbreak of 1862, the white settlers gathered nights at the house of John Priebe, returning to their homes to spend the days. Mr. Werdin was the first carpenter to settle in that neighborhood and constructed a number of the first frame buildings in that locality. The first frame house he built was for Mr. Harding. He built several other houses; among them being one for Mr. Fred Stoltz, and others for Gottlieb Kanne, August Kanne, and Christian Seewald. In 1859, while he and his family were at Wilton, his house, and all its contents were burned. In 1866, he sold his land in St. Mary and bought one hundred and sixty acres in section thirty-three, of Iosco, where he resided until his death, which occurred Jan. 25, 1875.
The children are Ferdinand W., born Sept. 16, 1855, in Prussia; Henry J., born Jan. 29, 1858, in St. Mary, Minn,; Amelia, now Mrs. Weishaar, of Los Angeles, Cal., born March 12, 1862, in St. Mary; J. L. Werdin, Jr., born in losco, Minn., Aug. 26, 1864; Otelia, now Mrs. H. O. Rieheth, of Minneapolis, born in Josco, March 23, 1867; Ernest R., born in Iosco, Feb. 16, 1869; Herman E. P., born in losco, Aug. 9, 1872. The two latter reside in Los Angeles, California.
