The late Gen. John B. Furay of the quartermaster's department, left the following of the Grattaon Massacre, he being stationed at Laramie during its occurrence :
"In August, 1854, a passing Mormon immigrant train lost a cow
534
HISTORY OF JACKSON COUNTY
from the herd. She strayed about until her hoofs were nearly worn off, and she fell exhausted, near an Indian camp. One of the Indians killed her, perhaps more out of mercy than from the need of the hide and flesh, but he may have assisted in eating the beef.
"When the Mormons learned of this they were indignant and came to the post and asked the commanding officer to send his troops to the camp and demand the Indian who killed the cow. A young lieutenant was in command, and he ordered Second Lieut. John L. Garnet, with a detach- ment of 30 soldiers, to the camp of Chief Mat-toi-oway, where the 10,000 red men were camped, with instructions to bring back the man who killed the cow.
"Lieutenant Grattan came to Sergeant Schneider for ammunition to supply him for the trip, and also two field pieces. The sergeant advised him to be careful in his dealing with the red men. The haughty young- ster, just fresh from school, did not take the advice kindly, and rode proudly away with his soldiers to the camp, many miles distant.
"He was met in a friendly way by the chief, and very authoritively made his demand. The chief explained that the cow was killed more as an act of mercy than in an unfriendly spirit toward the whites, but offered to give the officer one of his cows in place of the one killed. This, the lieutenant refused to accept.
"The chief then offered to add another cow, then a pony, and finally two ponies, but still was refused. The lieutenant insisted that he must carry out his orders. The chief then turned to go back to his tent, when the young officer fired upon and killed him instantly.
"This treachery so shocked the Indians that all was consternation for a time, but they soon recovered and turned upon the soldiers, killing every man but one. The Indians then began murdering and torturing every white person they could find."

Tatum, late well known citizen of Blue Springs, veteran of the Civil War, and one of the pioneers of Jackson County, was born in Patrick County, Va., Nov. 21, 1834, and died at his home in this county, May 10, 1918.

With his three remaining sons, he set to work to rebuild his place and again succeeded. He died in 1875.
From 1855 to 1860, John W. Tatum was employed by Majors, Waddell & Russell, government contractors, as assistant wagon master in freight- ing goods to New Mexico and for Irving and Jackman in freighting goods to Fort Laramie.

Price's army and was in the Second Battle of Corinth. In 1862, he recrossed the Mississippi and joined Shelby's cavalry, with which he remained during the campaign in Missouri and Arkansas. Mr. Tatum surrendered at Sherman's Point. Three of his brothers served in the war, James Edward was killed at the Battle of Lone Jack and David Tatum was wounded while in the service.

In 1884 he purchased a farm of 160 acres of Joe St. Clair and resided on this farm, which was located on the old Lexington road until 1902. He then purchased a home in Buckner in which he resided for three years. He then bought the adjoining property and all of the land between his home and the railway depot. He platted this land in 1912 and sold it, the plat being known as the Mann addition to Buckner. He sold his farm and divided the proceeds among his children, giving each child $2,500 apiece.

Rufus G. Kelly, extensive farmer, stockman and dairyman, Blue. township, has one of the most picturesque farms in Jackson County. The Kelly place consists of 430 acres, which he purchased in 1912. One hun- dred and ninety acres consists of valley land, fertile and productive, the rest of the farm being pasture and woodland. Mr. Kelly paid $72.50 an acre for his farm, which was in a general run-down condition, grown up with brush and practically unfenced. The rail fences have been sup- planted with woven wire fencing. The brush has given way to rich look- ing fields, which produce bountiful crops. The Kelly land has produced as high as 80 bushels of corn to the acre. Ten acres grown in 1917 pro- duced 800 bushels, which sold for $1.15 per bushel. Two and a half miles of hog-tight wire have succeeded the old rail fences; 4,200 new fence posts were required; and 72 spools of barbed wire were used in fencing the fields. Mr. Kelly has also built his own roadway. The old log house which stood on the place has been remodeled, weather boarded, three rooms added, new floors put in, a lighting plant installed, and the buildings all placed in splendid condition. Mr. Kelly erected a barn and other buildings, and has only recently erected a dairy barn, capable of housing 40 milch cows. He has been offered twice what he paid for the farm, but has refused the offer. Besides the residence, there are two tenant houses on the place, which also has a part of Necessary Lake within its borders.
