MARCUS L. STEWART, son of Thomas H. and Julia M. Stewart, was born in Lawrence county Kentucky, September 19, 1862. Two years af- terwards his parents moved to Davis county, Missouri, and five years later to Montgomery county, Kansas.

For several years he was engaged in farming, teaching school through the winters months.


Mr. Stewart early identified himself with the Methodist Episcopal Church, and was ordained a minister of that denomination some five years ago. He has gained a host of friends wherever he has taught or preached, and many of our peo- ple, and especially the children, will remember him with pleasure. In 1896 he went to Idaho, where he had charge of a circuit for some months, and then returned to this county to fin- ish up his business. He was quite favorably im- pressed with the people and location there and expects to make his home there. He establish- ed and carried to a successful termination the Chautauqua at Southwest City this fall, for which commendable enterprise he will have the lasting praise and esteem of her people.

ALBERT C. WALTERS, son of John U. and Margaret (Tyler) Walters, was born in Switzer- land, September 2, 1844. In 1847 his parents came to this country, first settling at Camden, N. J. The next year they went to the city of Philadelphia where they remained about five years, then went to Burks county, Pennsylvania. Mr. Walters attended school first in Philadel- phia and afterwards at the schools near his father's home in Burks county. He enlisted at Reading, Pa., in the fall of 1862, in the 151st Pennsylvania Volunteers, and served eleven months, and was in the battle of Gettysburg.


He first came to Polk county, this state, in 1868. The next year he went back east, but soon returned and has been in Southwest Missou- ri ever since. He and Miss Mary E. Brown, of this county, were married in 1871; they have five children living and two dead.


He came to this county in 1882, and bought the old mill where Bosserman now is. After re- fitting it he sold it, and in June, 1883, bought out A. M. Dillin of Pineville. From that time to September, 1897, he was one of the leading merchants of that place. He then sold to Car- nell & Duval. He has been engaged in farming, milling and merchandise, and is a good carpen- ter. He has not united with any church, but is strictly moral and his influence is for Christian- ity. He has always been a Democrat, but now is a Prohibitionist. In 1884 he was elected treasurer of this county which position he filled with credit, and had the name of keeping a re- markably neat set of books which balanced to a cent on his final settlement.

HON. JOHN F. TANDY.


J. F. TANDY, son of J. P. and Elizabeth (Par- nell) Tandy, was born in Carroll county, Ken- tucky, March 21, 1838. That was also the birth place of his parents.

November 4, 1891. July 23, 1893, he and Mrs. Su- san M. Moore of Osceola, St. Clair county, were married which union was blessed with one little girl.


Mr. Tandy began his official career in Febru- ary, 1878, when he was appointed by Governor Phelps, as Presiding Judge of the county court of St. Clair county to fill a vacancy. That fall he was elected to that office, thus serving three years. In 1886 he was again elected to that of- fice which he held the ensuing four years Those were stormy times in St. Clair county on ac- count of the attempt to enforce the collection of rail road bonds that had been issued several years before but no road ever built. Judge Tandy believing the bonds were fraudulent, re- fused to levy a tax for their collection, for which he was incarcerated in the Federal jail at Jef- ferson City for seven months, beginning No- vember 1887. He endured the imprisonment but never made the levy.


He came to McDonald county in Sept., 1893 and owns a good farm on Patterson creek. In 1894 he was nominated by the Populist for rep- resentative, and ran 100 votes ahead of his tick- et. In 1896 he was nominated by both Demo- crats and Populists, and elected by a majority of 621. He is a man of fine appearance, an elo- quent speaker and his services in the state leg- islature have been credible to himself, and for what he considered the best interest of his con- stituents. He is a minister in the Christian church to which he devotes much of his time.

also set up the forms for the first paper that was printed in Southwest City.

MR. AND MRS. S. D. PRESTON.


DR. SOLOMON D. PRESTON was born Octo- ber 10, 1853, in Logan county, Kentucky, where his childhood and youth were spent. He was educated at the Vanderbilt University where he studied medicine, but was taken down with ty- phoid fever when he lacked just one term of graduating. In 1880 he left his native state and went to Kansas, and two years later came to this county. He practiced medicine for a few years, but much of his time he operated a drug store at which business he was very proficient.


Mr. Preston was raised a Republican, but for many years affiliated with the Democratic party. In 1892 he again identified himself with the Re- publican party, and warmly supported its prin- ciples to the time of his death. He has been engaged in the newspaper work at various times in this county, and his papers were al- ways noted for the ability and purity of the read- ing matter. In the spring of 1897 he was taken down with typhoid fever, from which he died on the 5th day of May. He had a host of friends wherever known, and was the idol of his fami- ly to whom he had ever been a kind husband and father. He was a member of the Baptist

church, the I. O. O. F., the A. O. U. W. and Woodmen of the World. In each of the last two orders he carried a life insurance of $2,000, also $2,000 in the Bay State Insurance Compa- ny of Mass.


MRS. FANNIE PRESTON, widow of the late S. D. Preston, was born on Pea Ridge, Arkan- sas, March 26, 1866. She is a daughter of Dr. W. C. Duval of Pineville, by his former wife, Mary Jane (Boyer). She was brought up from a little child in Pineville, where she attended the public schools, and early in life united with the M. E. Church, south. September 5, 1883, she and Dr. Preston were united in marriage. They have lived at Pineville, Indian Springs and Southwest City in this county, and some eight- een months in the Cherokee Nation. To them were born seven children, six of whom-Edith, Susie, Joel Claiborn, Ruby, Lena, Cecil Rollo- are living. Leo, the youngest child, died June 3, 1897, from the same malady that had taken off his father but a few weeks before.


Mrs. Preston now lives in a comfortable home in Southwest City with ample means which the foresight and benevolence of her kind compan- ion provided. Their engraving appears on the next page.

J. A. DOTY.


JOSEPH A. DOTY was born in McDonough county, Illinois, January 10, 1864. His parents moved to Johnson county, Missouri, when he was two years old, but owing to the unsettled condition and law- lessness that existed there after the close of the war, the Doty family moved to Clark county, Iowa. Here young Doty worked on his father's farm and attended school, having to walk a mile and a half to reach the school house. In 1877 his parents re- moved to Osborne county, Kansas, where Joseph grew to manhood, and in the year of 1883 was wed- ed to Miss Laura A. Beck.


In the fall of 1887 he landed in Southwest City, Missouri, a stranger in a strange land. He soon made acquaintences and friends and determined to cast his lot with the people of McDonald county and make Southwest City a permanent home. Just after the election in the fall of 1888 Mr. Doty conceived the idea of establishing a Republican paper in the county and set about to secure a plant. The latter part of December, 1888, a small printing outfit was purchased, and on January 10, 1889, the first issue of the Enterprise was printed. This was the first Republican paper published in the county and, as the party was unorganized, it was predict- ed by many that the paper would soon suspend as it would not be able to secure the proper support to make it a success. It certainly did look like a rash venture, right in Democry's stronghold, but under the guiding hand of Mr. Doty the Enterprise continued to grow, and to day is one of the leading papers in Southwest Missouri. The success of the paper is due to his able management. He has ev- er been a faithful exponent of Republican princi- ples, at the same time avoiding offensive matter, so that persons of all parties took pleasure in read- ing his paper.


Mr. Doty has twice been elected Mayor of South- west City, and holds that position at the present time. In 1894 he was prominently mentioned for State Senator from the 15th district of Missouri.
