to work, had been sent to the little log schoolhouse for all it had to offer, and was 19 when his father died. The mother looked to him as her oldest child for help in managing the farm and caring for the family. When the Civil War came on he enlisted, September, 1861, in 3d Regiment, Capt. L. B. Dougherty, Company of State Guards, later joined a brigade under Brig. Gen. M. M. Pason. His army experience took him over Missouri, Arkansas and Mississippi. He buried his brother, Israel Link Scott, at Corinth, Miss., in a box made with his own hands, assisted by comrades. He was captured and taken to McDowell's College, St. Louis, which had been converted into a prison for soldiers. He always referred to this as his term in college. Was moved to State Prison of Illinois, which also was used for prisoners of war, was exchanged and sent to Vicksburg, attached to General Cockrell's brigade of Missouri troops, just before the battle of Champion Hills or Baker's Creek. Captured again by the Federals and taken to Indianapolis, Ind .; he was about to be carried to Johnson's Island, but his nine months of being prisoner of war seeming enough for his constitution, he planned and effected escape; he reached Illinois, having walked from Indianapolis to Terre Haute the day before. He joined himself to a kindly farmer, worked all summer, taught the school that fall, rounded up with a treat and program, and returned to Clay County in January, 1864, after an absence of three years from home. Bob Carey of Platte County was his comrade part of the time. He fed cattle, freighted from Fort Leavenworth to Denver. All the hard experi- ences of life perhaps rendered him more susceptible to the charms of the fair sex and he confesses in his autobiography to falling in love with Elizabeth Cain in the summer of 1867, was rewarded in his suit by receiv- ing her hand in marriage March 10, 1868. They began in a log house like his father's, reared a large family, in the advantages of school and the admonitions of the Christian Church. Before his death he had acquired a fine farm of 400 acres of Clay County land.

He received the junior medal for composition, and two gold ones upon gradu- ating, one for oratory, and one for elocution. He relates a rather unusual commencement in that he received two gold medals, a diploma, and the promise of Miss Lida Showers' hand in marriage all upon that occasion. He went home from college and taught the school south of Smithville, in his father's old district, in Clay County.
Miss Shower graduated the next spring from the college, won the gold medal in elocution, and she and Mr. Scott were married Oct. 21, 1891, and lived on his father's home place four years.

Charles Edwin Jones. To write the story of C. E. Jones and family, it is necessary to begin with the older members of this household, Mr. and Mrs. O. P. Riley. They grew up in Clinton County, and were married May 7, 1868, she being Miss Mattie Winn, a descendant of the Winns who emigrated to this country from Great Britain before the Revolutionary War, moving to Missouri from Kentucky at an early day.
Mr. Riley was a merchant and banker up to his death, Nov. 7, 1910. He and Mrs. Riley bought a beautiful residence, surrounded by 19 acres, on South Spring avenue, Plattsburg. Mrs. Riley is queenly in her manner, of rare executive ability, and fine grasp of affairs even yet in her ad- vanced years. They had no children of their own, but from time to time nieces and nephews have shared their hospitality, and been able to pursue their schooling more conveniently. One niece of Mrs. Riley's, Georgie Winn, came to them in early childhood, when bereft of both parents, and she occupied the place of beloved daughter, until her death in 1919.
The Jones family originated in Wales, but emigrated to Virginia. In 1839 three generations of the Jones's came to Platte County, Missouri, in ox wagons and settled near Barry. They were Daniel, Rodham, and Daniel Tullus Jones, the father of C. E. Jones, of this sketch.
Charles Edwin Jones, fourth child of Daniel T. and Almina Stigall Jones, was born March 12, 1857, in this county, on a farm seven miles northwest of Plattsburg. Their other children were Amanda, Mrs. John B. Kilgore, Denver, Colo .; John M. Jones, deceased ; and Eliza, Mrs. A. M. Jackson, deceased. The mother did her splendid part in rearing the children and died. The father married Miss Martha Stone, and there was born another child, Sarah, Mrs. George C. Bryan, who with her hus- band own and occupy the old homestead.
C. E. Jones attended the country schools, and later William Jewell College, at Liberty, Mo. He was for some years actively engaged in farming and feeding, and was for one year connected with the Live Stock Exchange in Kansas City. In 1890 he and O. P. and George R. Riley bought out the Bohart Bank. These two men have passed away, and Mr. Jones now is president of the First National Bank, Plattsburg. He owns

about 1,000 acres of land, which he and his son, Charles Edwin, Jr., look after.
Mr. Jones was united in marriage with Miss Georgeanna Winn, Dec. 16, 1885. Three children were born: William Perry, who died Jan. 23, 1912, aged 26 years, at El Paso, Texas, where he had gone in quest of health; the others are Almina and Charles Edwin, Jr. Mrs. Jones died April 10, 1919, at Long Beach, Calif., at the home of her brother, J. W. Winn, where she had gone in the vain hope of relief from a malady from which she was suffering. She was one of the best loved women the county ever knew, and the influence of her beautiful character upon the lives of those who enjoyed her acquaintance abides like a living, breathing pres- ence, never to be lost.
Mr. and Mrs. Riley were unwilling that the young people, the Jone's, should leave their home, so there on that spot they always lived, and there they reared their children.
At the going of Mr. Riley, and then later of Mrs. Jones, Mr. Jones bought the place and has since remodeled it again in 1921, making it one of the most elegant homes in the county. It is presided over by Miss Jones and Mrs. Riley.
Miss Jones is a graduate of Monticello Seminary, at Godfrey, Ill., and C. E., Jr., of Plattsburg High school.
Mr. Jones has never held public office, except upon the death of his brother, John M. Jones, he was appointed to fill the office to which the deceased had been elected, that of collector of revenues for Clinton County. He has given considerable service as a member of the school board of Plattsburg.
In 1906 the Plattsburg Chautauqua Association was formed, and Mr. Jones elected president, which place he has ever held with credit and honor to himself and the other officers and the patrons.
Mr. Jones has always been an invaluable business adviser to those unfortunate in the matter of education, or business acumen, or anyway in need of special business advice; not given to volubility, but of thought- ful turn of mind, doing more than saying, with nevertheless a keen sense of humor and an appreciation of the really cultural things of life. He is a member of the order of Masonry, York Rite Mason, life member of Moila Temple, Mystic Shrine, St. Joseph, Mo., and member of the Chris- tian Church, of which he is deacon and trustee.

She has traveled with them all, laughed and wept, and worked and played, and is still close at hand in a good home of her own, one of the pillars of their home structure for years, with their interests always at heart.
