Brussels has many singular attractions, and among the number is that of a queer boy or man. He was born Belgium 1854, and consequently is 26 years old. His name is Alexis Johndrain, and he is about the size of a 10 or 12 year old boy. His mother died in 1865, and his father 1869; since which time he has worked from farm to farm for his board and clothes- he has no desire for compensation or wages. For several years he kept the cow left him when his father died. In going from farm to farm he always took the cow with him, and lived mostly on the milk she gave. He finally sold the bovine (or (rather gave her away). He let a neighbor have her for $16,00; to be paid at the option of the purchaser-without note or other security. Two years have elapsed; nothing has been paid on the cow, and the future payment is more doubtful than the past. Alexis is comprehensive in general conversation; is energetic, and spry to work, but is boyish in behavior and actions. He seems to have no anticipations for the future, and evidently does not think further ahead than thej 'morrow


LIBERTY GROVE-SIXTH ORGANIZED TOWN.


"Liberty Grove" was so named by C. T. Morbeck, who was defeated in Gibraltar for the office of town clerk. He became dissatisfied, and that he might have matters under his own dictation, he got a portion of Gibraltar set off at the February meeting of the County Board, 1859, as the township of Liberty Grove. The first town meeting in Liberty Grove was held at the house of Ingebret Torgensen, April, 1859. Though dif- ferent men were elected to fill the several offices, in reality Morbeck was the clerk, treasurer, assessor, justice of the peace, etc., did all of the town business, and had matters his own way for some time. Years have passed-Morbeck has gone to Minnesota and located, and Liberty Grove has grown to a township of value, with bright prospects for the future.


However, it was with much difficulty that we obtained any information in Liberty Grove township for a county history. In the first place, the number who have lived in the town ten or more years is but few. And again, the inhabitants are most

all foreign born, and talk but little English-and that little is generally very broken. Besides, they have been more or less imposed upon by "sharpers," and are now very skeptical. Not a few thought we were around for the purpose of assessing their cattle, swine, fowls, etc., and would answer no questions for fear of an increase of taxes. In one instance the head of the family (who understood and spoke but very little English) thought we were around for the purpose of collecting name for an army draft. Evidently he took no newspapers printed in his mother language, for he did not comprehend that the war was yet over which closed in this country fifteen years ago! With anger, he finally answered us: "D-n! I go no to war! I too old!"


After spending much time in Liberty Grove, and experienc- ing various incidents of the above nature, we hired two of the natives to gather the facts we desired, while we turned our attention to other parts of the county. The men we hired have negleted to send us their reports (if they collected any). Hence, we can only give biographical sketches of the follow- ing gentlemen now living in Liberty Grove, who have been in the county ten or more years:


In the year 1853, Mr. John Thoresen, now farmer, first stepped foot in Liberty Grove. He came up from Milwaukee in a small sailboat, and landed at North Bay. He remained during the summer, then went back to Milwaukee and worked at ship building for a while-returning again to Liberty Grove, where he has since located permanently, and is one of the leading men of the town. He was born in Norway 1824; mar- ried Mary S. Hanson 1857; has seven children.


1855. John Elison, farmer and store keeper; born Denmark 1823; came to America 1855; married Caroline Top 1867. It was after Mr. Elison that the Government surveyors named Elison Bay, in about the year 1865. It was not until some two years later, that Mr. E. knew the bay was named after him-he happened to be scanning over a government map and discovered it.


1856. James Hanson, merchant at Sister Bay; born in Nor- way 1852; married Olive Helgeson 1875.


1857. Christian Hempel, farmer; born Prussia 1820; mar- ried Wilhelmine Sette 1847; has eight children. His daughter Augusta married Fredricka Miller. Wilhelmine married Nic Miller.

CLAY BANKS-SEVENTH ORGANIZED TOWN.


Clay Banks was set off of Forestville township, at the Feb- ruary meeting ofthe County Board, 1859. The first town meeting was held on the first Tuesday in April, 1859, at Prescott's boarding house.


The name "Clay Banks," is one of long standing, and origin- ated among the sailors on the lake. The high clay banks loomed up wonderfully, and sailors could readily recognize them many miles distant. In passing up and down the Lake "clay banks" was sort of a point to reckon distance from. When this section began to settle up, names for that portion of the county were numerous, but to make known the location, the words "Clay Banks" always had to be attached, and to save time and get immediate recognition, all other names were dropped, and Clay Banks adopted as the name.


Of the settlers now residing in Clay Banks, who have been in the county ten or more years, are the following:


1855. Wm. Helmholz, farmer; born in Germany 1827; mar- ried Matilda Lomann 1855. Second marriage 1872, to Mrs. Louisa Brentigane; has seven children. Otto married Alber- tina Tube 1877, has one child. Annie married Albert Frost 1877; has three children, and lives in Kewaunee county. Ma- tilda married Wm. Bailer 1874; has two children.

NASEWAUPEE-EIGHTH ORGANIZED TOWN.


On the petition of E. S. Fuller, the County Board, at the Nov- ember meeting, 1859, set off from the west part of the town of Otumba, under the name of Nasewaupee. The town also included Basin Island, town 28, range 24. The first town meet- ing was held at the house of Elijah S. Fuller, first Tuesday in April, 1860.


The word "Nasewaupee" is of wide range, and really con- veys, or can be used in different sense or meaning. In one way, it has reference to early dawn, or that part of the day before sunrise. However, in the sense in which it is connected with the township, "Nasewaupee" is of different meaning. In 1856 Mr. Nelson W. Fuller, and others, wanted a post-office on the west side of the bay. As to a name for the P. O. to be established, the Post-office department at Washington did not agree with Mr. Fuller and other parties here, so the whole matter concerning the name was left with the postmaster at Green Bay, who thought that "Nasewaupee," the name of a Menominee Indian chief that once located thereabouts, was appropriate. Nasewaupee post-office flourished under Mr. N. W. Fuller's administration as P. M. At least we presume it

flourished, for his net earnings the first three months were 37 cents. He finally resigned the position of postmaster, in favor of his brother, Mr. E. S. Fuller, who kept up the office for a time, when the post-office came to the same end as did Chief Nasewaupee-passed from existence. When the township was organized, it was named after the deceased post-office, and now the name "Nasewaupee" lives on, and only time will tell how far up the ladder of fame it will climb.


The following is a biographical sketch of those now living in Nasewaupee, who came to the county ten or more years ago:
