HISTORY OF RENVILLE COUNTY
was punishable unless under a direct license of the government and with the consent of the Indians.
Soon after the reduction of the reservation in 1858 settle- ments began to be made all along the river. The indueements to settlers were various. To some the fertility of the soil was the attraction and they began to open farms; to others the neigh- borhood of the reservation was a reason, since it enabled them to obtain employment there at the same time that they secured a homestead on the open land. Many carpenters and builders who were employed by the government in the ereetion of build- ings and improvements on the reserve took up land across the river.
In the early fifties, Werner Boesch settled in sections 22 and 23 in what is now Camp township, on the banks of Three Mile creek. He had helped to build Ft. Ridgely, and liking the neighborhood so much. settled near by, farmed and established a trading point, and remained until frightened away by the Indians, being warned just in time to escape the massacre. His story is told elsewhere in this work by N. O. Berge.
In 1858 came Halleck Peterson. This good man settled with his family in section 20, while JJohn Halvorsen and John Anderson and their families settled further west up the valley. They were driven out by the Indians and Halleek Peterson was one of the defenders of Ft. Ridgely. Other Norwegian settlers in the south- eastern part of the county were Ole Sampson Quam and family, John Hade and Conrad Hamm. Ole Qnam and several of his children were killed in the massaere, but his wife and infant escaped to Ft. Ridgely. In 1858 settlers also came in from Poland, Antoine Bucofsky and Joseph Michelsky (Machansky?). They were soon followed by Andrew Schott and others. William R. La Framboise secured land in section 22, Thomas A. Robertson in sections 22 and 23, and George Quinn in section 34, all in 1861.
A settlement was made around Mud Lake in the present town of Cairo. John Buehro settled there before 1859. Mr. Buehro was killed by the Indians in 1862. In 1859 eame Frederick Rieke and his family, two of his sons, George and Vietor, having pre- eeded the others by a few months. Claims were also taken in the southern part of Cairo before the massaere, all in 1861, Mary Mumford and Peter LaBelle in section 31 and Adam S. Cristman in section 32.
Quite a settlement existed at Beaver Falls, then ealled Beaver Creek, among whom were James and David Carrothers with wives and families; S. R. Henderson, wife and family, ineluding Jelial Wedge, Diedrich Wichmann with wife and large family, Henry Ahrens with wife and small family, Franz W. Schmidt with wife and small family ; Andrew Hunter had a elaim but was frequently absent; on his land was located the site for county

buildings of the county organization. James and David Car- rothers had claims adjoining ; David on the present town site and James adjoining on the south. They were employed as car- penters by the government on the reserve. S. R. Henderson operated his claim, which joined that of David Carrothers on the north. Schmidt joined Henderson on the northeast; Wich- mann joined Schmidt on the northeast, and Ahrens was north of Schmidt and aeross the creek from Wichmann. Andrew Hun- ter's claim was south of and adjoining James Carrothers. Mr. Ilunter was a farmer. He had been an Indian teacher. His wife was the daughter of Dr. T. S. Williamson, the famous missionary. Jonathan W. Earle, N. D. White, as well as others, also settled in this neighborhood. A family named Shepherd settled above the Wichmann claim a few days before the massacre. John Doyle was also a member of this colony. Several patents were issued for land in Beaver Falls township in 1861 ; Mary Renville, section 12; Mary Martin, section 13; Sophia Renville, section 22; Mary S. Robertson, section 22: Martha C. Robertson, section 27. The next year Isaac Renville received a patent to land in seetion 20. This land was doubtless obtained by the "laying" of "Half breed script," and it is not likely that these people actually lived in Beaver Falls at that time. JJohn Hayden and Benedict 'Eune lived a mile and a half from the Earle home.
Magloire Robideaux settled at Ilawk Creek in 1859 and before the massacre Louis Labelle and Alex. Guertin had joined him. November 29, 1861. Joseph Schaffer filed a claim in sec- tion 16. Louis Robert also had a store or trading post there.
Joseph R. Brown made a settlement at Sacred Heart in 1861. Hle built a fine stone house which was destroyed the next year by the Indians. In this neighborhood were Charles Holmes, a single man, and J. IJ. Ingalls, a Scotchman with his large family, and a Mr. Frace and family.
The La Croix family at Birch Cooley had in the meantime been joined by many French-Canadians and half bloods. Among these was Francois La Bathe, the trader, though at the time of the massacre he was living at the ageney. David Faribault was another prominent member of the colony. Among others who were there previous to the massacre were: John Kumro, Joseph and David McConnell. George Buerry, Jacob Manley (his real name was Hubert Miller and he was the ferryman),
Peco, Antoine Young,
Roi, John Magner, Edward
Magner. Kawertewin, Peter Perean (Paro?), Charles Clansen, Peter Clausen, Piguar. Andrew Bahlke, Henry Keartner, Carl Witt, Patrick Kelley, John Zimmerman, David O'Connor, Mrs. Marie Frorip, Cardenelle and others. Not far away was the Horan family (two of the sons were Kearn and Patrick).

HISTORY OF RENVILLE COUNTY
A strip of land in Flora and Sacred Heart townships, extend- ing from Middle Creek to Sacred Heart creek, was thickly set- tled by Germans, beginning with 1859 or possibly earlier. No doubt there were over one hundred and fifty persons in this set- tlement at the time of the massacre. Unfortunately the names of the settlers are for the most part forgotten. Many were killed in the massaere. The names of some male adults are Rev. Christian L. Seder, Johan Schwandt, John Walz, John Frass. Angust Frass. Gottfried Buce (Busse ), Fred Lentz.

Although soon after the massacre the Indians were punished or transported, prowling bands still remained in the vicinity of their old haunts. On May 24, 1864, Col. Samuel MePhail, a pioneer of Redwood Falls, Redwood county, wrote to Col. William Pfaender, in command at Fort Ridgely. He says : "There are in this vicinity six or eight straggling Indians. If yon could send up ten or twelve cavalry for a few days with our aid I feel confident we could capture them." On June 2 he wrote to General Sibley: "We are and have been greatly annoyed by small bands of prowling Indians. We would respect- fully ask, if not inconsistent with the public service, that you grant us a small detachment of troops." Again, under date of June 14. to the adjutant general, Oscar Malmros, he says : "Send me to Fort Ridgely twenty Springfield rifles; also 1,000 ball cartridges. Should we use these cartridges we will pay for them with sealps, that is. if the bounty of $200 still holds good ; if not, then charge them to the good of the service." The author- ities responded to the appeats by sending guns and ammunition on July 28, and, on December 12, a squad of twelve ex-confed- crates for guard duty.
In the winter of 1862, a company of mixed blood seouts com- manded by Gabriel Renville was stationed at Patterson's Rapids in Flora township, not far from the mouth of the Sacred Heart. Among these seouts was Joseph La Framboise.
After the Indian outbreak, a chain of forts was established for the safety and protection of the citizens in the eastern part of the state. For several years this line marked the western boundary of civilization in the state. Jerry P. Patten, a private in Company II, Sixth Minnesota Volunteer Infantry, detachments of which were stationed at these posts or forts, furnished the names of the posts which extended through Renville county and vicinity. The locations were as follows: Kingston (on Crow river), Hutchinson, Preston lake, Buffalo lake, Ft. Burns (between Buffalo lake and Ft. Ridgely), Ft. Ridgely and Sleepy Eye. In addition to the companies or detachments of companies of infantry stationed at these posts, detaelnments of cavalrymen patrolled the line every day to look for signs of Indians. The ruins of the Buffalo Lake post are still to be seen on the shores of that lake, not far from the village. In addition to the posts mentioned the line extended across the state and well into Iowa.
When Darwin S. Hall moved to Preston Lake township there were still evidences of the soldiers' camp along the shore of the lake in section 10. On the southeast quarter of the northwest
554
HISTORY OF RENVILLE COUNTY
quarter of section 15 a trench had been ent through a swell of land evidently with the idea of shelter and defense.
For many years entrenehments could plainly be seen near Ft. ('reek in Cairo township, some mile and a half northeast of the fort.
There were no settlers in Renville county in 1864 west of the Riekies, with the possible exception of a few half breeds in the vicinity of the month of lawk creek. Here and there a trapper pursued his calling and found shelter at times in some settler's rabin left standing by the Indians, but for the most part the county was bereft of human activity from the time of the Indian Massacre to the time when a few brave souls ventured back in 1865.
That there were no settlers between Ft. Ridgely and the Red- wood ferry in 1864 is shown by an experience which Jerry P. Patten relates of that year.
"In the month of May, 1864, I was stationed at Ft. Ridgely with my company, H, of the Sixth Min. Vol. Inf. The Indians cut the rope of the ferry boat at the Lower agency ferry. and the boat came drifting down to Ft. Ridgely, where it was caught by the soldiers.
"Sergeant Libbens White, of Co. Il., was detailed with twelve men to pole the boat back up the river and with a new rope put. the ferry in working condition again. The detail consisted of E. B. Speed, William Speed, James Blair, Lafe. Root, and Jerry P. Patten, of Co. Il, Sixth Regiment : and six men of Co. A. Sixth Regiment. The task was performed without accident.
"Then we tore some lumber from the old government mill which stood just below the ferry and made a raft on which we floated back to Ft. Ridgely. The whole trip took three weeks.
"At that time there were no settlers above Ft. Ridgely. Neither were there any large bodies of Indians. But there were small parties of Indians scouting over our frontier. A scouting party from our regiment killed an Indian on the Cottonwood river between Sleepy Eye and New Ulm and brought his body to the fort. He was buried behind the stone quarters in lime as the physicians desired his body. The place he was killed was near the home of R. B. Hinton, later one of the first business men of Morton."
The story of the settlement of the county after the Outbreak is told elsewhere, under the head of the different townships.
