COMMODORE INGRAM
(Mooresville).
Within the past few years there has arisen in the country a most remarkable science, if such it can be called; at least it is only of com- parative recent date that the attention of the masses has been directed to it. In the days of Christ such occurrences as now transpire were not unknown, and even since then there have been many ready wit- nesses to the truth of this wonder. We refer to the faith cure, so-
977
HISTORY OF LIVINGSTON COUNTY.
called, or the healing of the diseased by means of faith. Space forbids our entering into a detailed discussion of this cure, and indeed it would not be necessary, for our readers are all acquainted to some degree with its progress and nature. Among others who have become well known in the prosecution of this cure is Mr. Ingram, and the his- tory of how he came to be associated with it is of sufficient interest to warrant a brief outline in the present work. He was born April 10, 1824, in Floyd county, Ind., the fourth of eight children born to Eze- kiel and Mary Ingram, the former of whom died in 1875 and the latter in 1835. In youth he had scarcely any facilities for acquiring an edu- cation, never having attended school a day in his life; but by strong and persistent effort he has succeeded in becoming well informed upon the current topics of the day. He continued to farm in Indi- ana until removing to Jefferson county, Ia., in 1844, and in 1848 he removed to Wapello county ; five years later he settled in Decatur county, and for nine years was engaged in farming and painting. During the years 1854-55-56 he was a strong infidel, but one day while engaged in a discussion he was smitten down by the wrath of God and strangely afflicted. His life was despaired of, but when all hopes of recovery had vanished he was enveloped in a light exceed- ing the brightness of lightning, and at once arose from his bed and preached for an hour and a half. Subsequent to this Mr. Ingram went to Mahaska county, Ia., and farmed near Oskaloosa until 1872, when God again visited him and gave him the gift of healing the sick, as described in the Bible. He was made cognizant of this unexpected power by the sudden and complete return to health of an old friend of his with whom he shook hands on the 10th of February, 1872, and who. had long been suffering with palsy. This supernatural gift seemed to leave Mr. Ingram for three years, but February 25, 1876, he appeared to receive a remarkable increase of power, a simple touch or command destroying the worst maladies like chaff before the wind. For two days he visited the houses of his neighbors and others whom he could not reach by just opening the doors of their residences felt the flight of the disease with which they had been afflicted. Such occurrences are beyond human power of explanation. That they are true many will attest, and the crowds who now come to him to be treated are living witnesses of his power to heal. Finally Mr. Ingram became located at Brookfield, and four years later went to Illinois, then returning to Iowa. It was while in Cherokee county that the power left him for three years, as before referred to. In September, 1885, after travel- ing for some time, he settled at Mooresville, where his large and growing patronage has been of wonderful success. Some remarkable cures are related of him. He has a family of seven children living. One son, John F., received this divine gift like his father, but enter- ing the United States army he died at Corinth, Miss. He is a strong believer in the truths of the Bible as literally taught. Surely no one in this county can lay claim to such experiences as have fallen to the lot of Mr. Ingram.

EUPHRONIUS KIRTLEY
(Farmer and Stock-raiser, Section 14, Post-office, Mooresville).
No worthy reference to the agricultural affairs of this county would be complete without mention of Mr. Kirtley among others engaged in tilling the soil. Besides enjoying to an unlimited extent the confi- dence and respect of all who know him, he comes of a family of chil- dren that have not only done credit to themselves but have brought honor upon the name they bear. Mr. Kirtley's parents, Asa T. and Mary B. Kirtley, nee Rogers, both came of Kentucky nativity, the former from Boone county and the latter from Fayette county. Asa was a son of Robert Kirtley his forefathers having come from England in an early day. While in the Blue Grass State he ( Asa) followed farming as a livelihood, and after living there until 1833 he moved to Indiana, which was his home until returning to Kentucky in 1837. A year later he settled in Saline county, Mo. and the next year became a citizen of Livingston county, where he purchased a large tract of land east of Mooresville, and commenced its cultivation. In 1867 he moved to Lafayette county and at this time he now resides there, occupied in farming. His wife died in 1855, leaving eight children. She was a daughter of John Rodgers ( who died of the cholera in 1832) and was married to Mr. K. in 1831. The names of these children were Marcus, who died July 15, 1882; Valerius died when 18 years old ; Cyrus was a member of the Confederate army during the war and saw much active service, was several times wounded and once reduced to the necessity of sustaining himself upon the flesh of mules and horses, and surrendered with Pemberton's forces ; he now resides at Marshall, Mo. ; Erastus was a member of the M. S. M. and is now located in Marshall, Saline county ; Lycurgus graduated from Will- iam Jewell College and also from the Crosier Theological Seminary, near Philadelphia, subsequently devoting a year's study with Dr. Osgood, of Flushing, Long Island ; is now an able and rising minister of the Baptist Church at Jackson, Mich. ; Manlius, unmarried, and Mil- liard died in infancy. After the death of his first wife Mr. Kirtley married Miss Margaret F. Herndon, of Carroll county. Three chil- dren blessed this union : Endora, wife of Thomas Bates, of Paola, Kan. ; Edward died at the age of 18, and Arthur now assists in the management of the home place. Euphronius Kirtley was born Nov- ember 26, 1835, in Decatur county, Ind., but was reared in this county, receiving a good common school education, supplemented by ten months' attendance at Edinburg College. In 1865 he left home, traveled throughout the West for a year, then returned and purchased a large farm east of Mooresville. January 29, 1863, he was married to Miss Martha E. Stuckey, daughter of John Stuckey, an old and esteemed citizen of this county. Mrs. K. died in March, 1875, leav- ing four children : Asa T., Mary B., Bertie and Mattie. August 29, 1877, Mr. Kirtley was again married, to Mrs. Dora Jordan. Mr. Kirtley's farm now embraces 280 acres of land and upon it he has a

number of short-horn cattle, an industry to which he gives consider- able attention.
JOHN F. MANN
(Farmer and Stock-raiser, Section 19, Post-office, Mooresville).
Still less than 40 years of age Mr. Mann is accorded a worthy place as an agriculturist of established reputation in this community. His father, James F. Mann, was a Kentuckian by birth and farmed in his native State until removing to Livingston county, Mo., in 1855. He is now closely associated with the interests of both Caldwell and Livingston counties, though his residence is in Mooresville town- ship of the latter county. He owns a valuable tract of 150 acres of land. His wife, Mrs. Lucretia Mann, died in June, 1885, having borne her husband 11 children, 5 of whom are now living : McD., who owns land in both Caldwell and Livingston counties ; Louisa, wife of Stephen W. Reynolds, of Grand River township ; Edmund T., in Caldwell county ; Mary E., now Mrs. Robert S. Dilly ; Huldah A., who married Leonard Immick, of Mooresville, and John F. The latter was born August 19, 1847, in Shelby county, Ky., and was about eight years of age when brought to this county by his father. He was raised to a farm life, being the recipient of a common district school education, and after reaching manhood he was married in December, 1873, to Miss Margery Dilley, daughter of John J. Dilley, an old and respected settler of this vicinity, now a citizen of Chillicothe. Mrs. Mann is a lady of excellent educational attainments and highly cultured, having attended the schools of Chillicothe, Liberty and Trenton ; at the time of her marriage she was a teacher in Clay county. In 1874
Mr. Mann moved into Chillicothe and was engaged in clerking for the Sherman Mercantile Company until going to Breck- inridge in 1878, where he carried on a grocery business, Mrs. Mann conducting a millinery establishment. Five months later they removed to Trenton, Grundy county, where Mrs. M. again opened a millinery store, her husband engaging in the livery business. Upon his return to Chillicothe he again clerked in a store, once more opened out a grocery house at Breckinridge, and subse- quently became associated with Mr. J. P. Albangh in a like business at Mooresville. After a year thus employed and a short time spent in Chillicothe he purchased a farm west of Mooresville and. this he now owns, carrying on agricultural pursuits and stock raising. In all his transactions he has been peculiarly successful. Twenty-one times since his marriage has he moved, always with good results. One especial item about his place worthy of mention is the splendid orchard to be seen, the finest in this township. Himself and wife have two children : Charles A. and Orland F. In politics Mr. Mann is a Democrat.

HISTORY OF LIVINGSTON COUNTY.
GEORGE P. PEPPER, JR.
(Mooresville Township.)
The family of which the subject of this sketch is a representative is one well known to the people of Livingston county, for one or more of its members have been identified with its interests in different ca- pacities since an carly period in its history. James S. and Nancy E. Pepper, née Nave, were the parents of George P., the father being a Virginian by birth and the mother a native of this State. James Pepper died in this county September 27, 1875, but his widow still survives and finds a welcome home with her son, George. Eleven children were born to them, but only five of these are now living : James S., Maud S. and Katie C., at home, and Joseph D., who was married to Miss Annie Immick, daughter of John E. Immick, of Mooresville ; he is now located at Sherman, Kan. George P. Pepper was born in Livingston county, January 4, 1852, and in growing up passed his time in the vicinity of Spring Hill, Jackson township. His career, though perhaps not as long as many others, has been one of thrilling interest. During the war especially he was an active partici- pant in numerous occurrences, though an unwilling one, and was placed in many dangerous places. After the battle of Wilson Creek about 1861, he was hung by one Granville Brasfield, who thought by this means to induce George to disclose the whereabouts of a friend, William Frith; though only 10 years old he refused to give the desired information and was strung up a second time, with like results. He is familiar with the killing of Dow Kirk and David Cur- tis by Thos. Jennings mentioned elsewhere (pp. 763,767), and it was he who found the body of William Avery, murdered by Samuel Husher, the particulars of which are well known to him, and he was present at the hanging of Husher. Mr. Pepper after receiving a good education at the Chillicothe High School became located in the mer- cantile business at Lock Springs, Daviess county, remaining there until the destruction of his establishment by fire November 17, 1884. Another store house which he built at the same place was destroyed by a cyclone. He is now carrying on a mercantile business at a place in Kansas. Mr. Pepper's wife was formerly Miss Emma T. Peery, daughter of James W. Peery, the brother of Capt. Fielding Pecry, of Daviess county ; her cousin, Stephen Peery, is a prominent attorney of Trenton. Mr. P. and wife have had five children, all of whom are living. He has an enviable reputation throughout the county, and is a genial, whole-souled man whose word is as good as his bond.
WILLIAM F. SPEARS
(Farmer and Stock-raiser, Section 20, Township 57, Range 26, Post-office, Mooresville) .
Like so many other agriculturists of Livingston county of whom mention is made in these pages, Mr. Spears is a Kentuckian by birth

and bringing up, and as such is well informed upon the proper methods to successfully conduct a farm and secure favorable results. Adam Spears, his father, devoted himself to farming as his occupation, and after reaching manhood he married Miss Leah Baxter, who died in 1864, her husband having died in 1842. They were both also of Ken- tucky nativity, and the parents of a large family of children. Of these Mary A. married W. W. Moore, of Harrison county, Ky. ; Lucinda became the wife of Jonathan R. Montgomery, of Bourbon county, Ky. ; John M. married Mollie Edrington, and lives in this county, and with him is Oliver P. ; Amanda died in 1867; Reason A. married M. E. Gregg, of this county ; he was a soldier during the rebellion, and is now in Chillicothe ; and William F. is the subject of this sketch. Hc grew up in Harrison county, Ky., and obtained a limited education from the inferior subscription schools of the day, and from youth he had a responsibility placed upon him such as but few of the present day are called to bear. By the death of his father the charge of the family rested upon him, but the faithfulness and almost heroic manner in which he discharged these duties towards the other members of the family is something worthy of preservation. After leaving home he learned the carpenter's trade, and in this occupation he continued for five years after removing to Chillicothe in November, 1855. In 1862 he took up his residence in this township, buying a small farm and turning his energies towards its improvement. At this time he owns a valuable estate of 160 acres, and is quite extensively engaged in dealing in graded stock, especially registered Berkshire hogs. His reputation as a stockman is by no means confined to this immediate vicinity, but extends over a wide territory. Mr. Spears was united in marriage in
1859 to Miss Sarah C. Holden, daughter of Benjamin Holden, of Scott county, Ky. Eight children have blessed this happy union: Mary, wife of Alfred Ireland, half brother to Hon. H. C. Ireland, of Chilli- cothe ; Laura, deceased in 1882; Cora, William O., Bertha, Mattie, deceased in 1875; Ada L. and Charles H. Mr. S. has held all the chairs in the 1. O. O. F., and has twice been delegate to the Grand Lodge. He also belongs to the A. O. U. W., of Mooresville, and was once a delegate to the Grand Lodge. For a number of years the Christian Church has found in him a reliable, consistent member.
JACOB M. STOUT
(Farmer and Stock-raiser, Section 7, Post-office, Breckinridge).
Mr. Stout is very properly classed among the substantial, repre- sentative citizens of Mooresville township. Now just in the prime of life he has become possessed of a desirable competence, the result entirely of his own determination and will, and on his place of 160 acres he has a magnificent stone dwelling, an ornament to the com- munity. Born June 29, 1831, in New Jersey, he was the son of Jacob and 'Margaret ( MeIlroy ) Stout, also natives of the same State, the father being an agriculturist by occupation. He died in New Jersey in 1878, the mother having preceded him to the grave in 1875. Six children were in their family, and the names of those besides Jacob
982
HISTORY OF LIVINGSTON COUNTY.
were William, a wheelwright in New Jersey ; Theodore, a moulder by trade, and James, a blacksmith, still in that State, as is Charles, who is engaged in farming and building ; John accompanied his brother, Jacob, to Missouri, but on account of failing health was compelled to return to New Jersey, where he died in August, 1873. Jacob Stout, the subject of this sketch, was born on a farm and very naturally grew up to a farm experience, though when 14 years old he commenced to learn the trade of an iron moulder at Oxford, his native State. In 1869 he removed to Missouri, purchased an estate embracing 160 acres and for over 16 years has been identified with the agricultural interests of this county. His ideas in regard to the proper conduct of a farm have been warmly complimented and copied and since his location here he has made an extensive acquaintance. In 1857 Mr. Stout was married to Miss Lydia A. Goodison, of New Jersey, though her family now reside in Michigan, where her father, William Goodison, died in 1879. The following family of children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Stout : Castella, who married in January, 1885, Henry Colvin, of Caldwell county ; Elmer is a com- mercial traveler for Burns & Co., of St. Joseph, and Irving and Harry assist in the duties about the home place. Mr. S. belongs to both the I. O. O. F. and A. F. and A. M. fraternities; his wife is a consistent member of the Christian Church.
MICHAEL TOMLIN
(Farmer and Stock-raiser, Section 4, Post-office, Mooresville).
One of the very first settlers in Howard county, Mo., -- indeed one whose biography goes back to the earliest settlement of the State, - was John Tomlin, the father of the subject of this sketch. He was a Tennesseean by birth, and when that country was an uninhab- ited wilderness carried on a farm there, subsequently coming to Howard county. He afterwards died in Lexington in 1826. The maiden name of his wife was Hannah Cook, and at the time of her death, June 11, 1862, she had reached the ripe old age of 91 years. Twelve children resulted from their union: Mary, who married Urial Jackson, and she and her husband are both now deceased; Elizabeth, wife of William Woolsey, also both now deceased ; Lucinda married Thomas Field, and both died in this county; William C. married Susan MeCrary and resides at Warrensburg, Mo. ; James B., now deceased, the maiden name of his wife being Lucy Howell; Nancy, the wife of Harvey Dillon, and she and her husband are both dead ; Joshua J. married Nancy Powell and died in 1844 ; John L. married Millie Sisk and died in 1869; Christian S. married Alcey Hood and died in 1858 ; Deborah, who married Henry H. Gray, died in 1843, and her husband in 1846; Hannah died in infancy. Michael, the youngest of the children, was born June 10, 1820, near Knoxville, in East Tennessee, and January 1, 1840, he was married to Miss Eliza N. Williams, and they were blessed with the following family : Susan HI., died in infancy ; Thomas A., born July 10, 1843, died in 1846; John W., born June 6, 1845, married Susan Engart, and has six chil-

dren living ; Joshua J. also died in infancy; Martha E. became the wife of S. A. Enyart ; Juliet A. married Hiram Woolsey and died in 1876, leaving five children; Madalina P. is now Mrs. N. L. Reynolds and has two children living; Ida L., wife of Thomas G. Petree, and they have two children, and Erin, the youngest, remains at home. In 1850 Mr. Tomlin went to California overland, but owing to failing health he returned by the Isthmus of Panama. May 5, 1861, his first wife died, and in 1863 he was married again, to Elizabeth Camp- bell, whose death occurred in 1872. His third marriage in 1878 was to Sarah C. Grimes, daughter of Emanuel Petree, and the widow of Henry C. Grimes. It should have been mentioned that the youngest child, referred to Erin, was by the second marriage. Mr. Tomlin was one of the pioneer citizens of this county, and as such is well known, enjoying without limit unbounded respect and confidence, as shown in 'a feeble way by his election to the positions of treasurer and collector. He is now township treasurer. He was once elected to be a magistrate, but refused to serve.
ALBERT VOORHES
(Fruit Grower, Section 9, Post-office, Mooresville).
Mr. Voorhes occupies an advanced position among the representa- tive farmers of Mooresville township. He is an Eastern man by birth and bringing up, but has been a resident of this Western country for many years. Boru in Ohio October 19, 1824, he was the son of Louis C. and Elmer Voorhes, whose maiden name was Day, both natives of New Jersey. The former tilled the soil in the State of his birth until removing to Ohio and afterwards resumed the same occu- pation there up to the time of his death in 1878 ; his wife died in 1856. Out of 14 children in their family, only five besides Albert are living : James, a farmer in Ohio ; Robert, in Guernsey county, O .; William, in this county, married to Miss Jane Rounds, and they have three children, William, Rosa and Frauk; Garret, in Illinois; Elizabeth Ellen, widow of Jonathan Shuman, now upon the old home place. Young Albert was early taught that industry was the only sure road to success and so he learned the trade of hatter in Wheeling, W. Va., following it as a journeyman for several years and in this way visiting numerous cities and States of the Union. Settling per- manently at McConnellsville, O., he was engaged in his chosen avo- cation until coming to Livingston county, Mo., in 1868. Since then he has been actively occupied in pursuing his adopted calling of fruit growing, an industry which has proven a source of benefit to the county and of good results to himself. Mr. Voorhes has been twice married ; his first wife, formerly Miss Jane Cox, of Maryland, died in Ohio in 1848, leaving one daughter, Phebe Jane, afterwards the wife of William Lewis, of Pennsylvania ; she died about 1866. In 1853 Mr. Voorhes married Miss Lydia Dennis, daughter of Philip Dennis, a native of the Keystone State. When quite young she had removed to Wheeling, W. Va., and was there reared. Mr. V. has held all the chairs in the I. O. O. F., with which he has long been associated.

CHAPTER XVIII.
MONROE TOWNSHIP.
Boundary - Physical Features - Land Entries -The Name Monroe - Killing of Austin - Future Outlook of Monroe Township - Biographical.
Monroe township comprises all of Congressional township 56, range 25, except a part of section 24, and lies in the southwest corner of the county. Shoal creek and its tributaries, Rattlesnake and Muddy, furnish plenty of water, and good soil and fine grass lands combine to make it an excellent stock growing township. " The Low Gap Country," as it is now called, can not be excelled for general excellence in this part of the State.
Monroe township was one of the first settled in the county. On the night of the 12th of November, 1833, memorable as the date of the great meteorie shower, or as " the time when the stars fell," John Austin, James Austin, Abraham Bland, Zachariah Bland, Pur- mort Bland, Zachariah Lee and Isaac McCoskrie camped on Shoal creek, and afterward entered land in this township. Thos. Bryan came about the same time, as did Spencer H. Gregory.
The country along Shoal creek in this quarter was well favored and greatly pleased the pioneers. Game was abundant, the soil was rich, the water plenty and pure, and the woods were full of bee trees. Other settlers came in from time to time, and it is said that a few Mormons lived here in 1838.
As soon as the land came in market in 1835, it began to be entered, and the following entries were made by actual residents up to the year 1840. A few tracts were taken up by speculators: -
