alter, before help arrived from the city. A woman named Catherine Murray remained in her room till dragged out, and was suffocated nearly to death by the smoke. She died a few days afterward. She had been ill, but it is supposed that the smoke and fright hastened her death.
GRANT COUNTY AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.
The society was organized at Beetown in November, 1855. The cause of the organization just at that time and place is rather curious. In the summer of that year the postmaster at Beetown, Frank Barr, received from the Patent Office (the Agricultural Department was not then organized) fifteen or twenty volumes of agricultural books and a large quantity of seeds for the "Grant County Agricultural Society." Mr. Barr wrote to the Commissioner that he knew of no such society and inquired what he should do with the books and seeds. The Com- missioner replied that he had been informed that Wm. P. Dewey was secretary of the Grant Count Agricultural Society, but if no such so- ciety existed, the farmers would better get together and organize one, and they would continue to receive books and seeds. Mr. Barr men- tioned the matter to several prominent farmers, but no action was taken until a second letter came from the Commissioner urging organ- ization. Finally quite a number of farmers met at the church in Bee- town, elected J. E. Dodge President and Dr. John Dodge Secretary, and adopted a constitution and by-laws, and distributed the books and seeds. Among the seeds were some packages of the "King Philip brown corn," an improved variety of flint or "Yankee" corn, which soon became quite popular. Milas K. Young was the first who raised it.
Nearly all the members who joined that year, paying one dollar membership fee, were farmers of Beetown, Waterloo, and Blake's Prairie. The next year a good many Lancaster men took hold of the matter, and the first exhibition was held at Lancaster, in the fall of 1856. No record of the proceedings exists. The second exhibition was held at Lancaster, September 23 and 24, 1857. Premiums to the amount of $182.25 were awarded. Among those who took the largest premiums on horses and cattle were John Dodge, Samuel Lem- on, John Hale, George Morris, R. A. and John Welch, James Milner, and L. J. Woolley. Most of these afterward became famous as stock- breeders in the western part of the county.
The society flourished and on the list of its life-members are found

the names of many of Grant County's most prominent citizens. The fair grounds are excellently located just east of the city, furnishing a level and spacious field for the race-track and the necessary buildings. The annual fairs, besides encouraging agriculture and the breeding of improved stock, furnished ideal opportunities for social reunions and enjoyable holidays. Many a gray-haired citizen of today remembers that it was a red-letter day in his youthful calendar when he took his "best girl" to the Grant County fair. In 1867, as a rival attraction to the trotting matches, there was a wolf-baiting at the fair. The wolf was declared the winner after a fight of an hour and a half, but the dogs were again set upon him and worried him out in about an- other hour.
The society still flourishes. Its officers for 1900 are as follows: Delos Abrams, president; George B. Wheeler, secretary; Richard Meyer, Jr., treasurer; Thomas Tuckwood, general manager; Peter Henkel, marshal.
THE SOLDIERS' MONUMENT.
Early in the great and bloodly struggle for the preservation of the Union steps for the preservation of the names and memories of those who gave their lives for the Union began to be considered. In a com- munication published in the Grant County Herald of September 16, 1862, Mr. George R. Laughton, of Platteville, proposed a monument for the soldier dead. This is said to be the first proposition of the kind made anywhere in the United States. Mr. Laughton's design was a plain marble shaft about fifteen feet high and from four to six feet square at the base, surmounted by the eagle and decorated with the flag and other military symbols. The proposition was widely ap- proved and committees were appointed to collect money, and they took many subscriptions.
The County Board held a special war meeting January 5, 1863. Mr. Laughton offered a resolution for the erection of a suitable monu- ment in the court house square to commemorate the fallen soldiers. The committee appointed to collect subscriptions, Addison Burr, of Lan- caster, Luther Basford, of Glen Haven, Cole & Seaton, of Boscobel, and G. R. Laughton, were recognized by the Board and given permis- sion to erect the monument in any part of the court house square. Within a month after that the subscriptions amounted to $700; but here the work languished. The tremendous strain of levying "sinews of war" in the shape of war taxes, bounty funds, and aid to the needy

families of soldiers-matters which demanded instant attention- caused the matter of the monument to be postponed to a less exact- ing time.
Early in 1866, on the basis of subscriptions already made and ex- pected to be made, a contract was let to S. D. Wright, of Whitewater, Wis., to erect the monument, at a price of $5,000. It was found, how- ever, that this amount could not be raised by subscription, and the County Board came to the relief of the committee. At a special ses- sion held in April, 1866, the Board ordered that George R. Laughton, Addison Burr, Luther Basford, and Philetus Hoyt be appointed a committee to superintend the erection of a soldiers' monument at Lan- caster, and to expend for that purpose any money that might be ap- propriated by the Board for that purpose, under the provisions of a recent act of the legislature. The committee were authorized to make all needful contracts.
At another special session held July 9, 1866, the Board appropri- ated $4,469.43 in county orders payable April 1, 1867, and the next day, $3,200 more, of which $3,000 was payable May 1, 1867. J. C. Cover, S. F. Clise, J. W. Seaton, and A. Burr were appointed a com- mittee to carry the resolutions into effect. At the annual session in November, $800 more was appropriated, and A. Burr appointed to have charge of the monument and provide for its protection. July 4, 1867, was appointed as the time for its dedication, the people of the whole county were invited to attend, and the following commit- tee of arrangements appointed :
Henry Hurst, Wingville; John Brandon, Smelser; Lt. John Grin- dell, Platteville; Dr. Stoddard, Jamestown; Wm. Longbotham, Paris; J. W. Kaump, Harrison; S. E. Lewis, Potosi; Thomas Wier, Liberty ; Lt. D. G. Purman and Capt. A. R. Bushnell, Lancaster; Capt. Wm. Harlocker, Mt. Hope; Thomas Laird, Wingville; John Woodward, Clifton; Lt. A. V. Knapp, Lima; David Phillips, Ellenboro; W. W. Field, Boscobel; Capt. D. R. Sylvester, Blue River; Gen. J. B. Moore, Muscoda; Lt. Matt. Birchard, Fennimore; Geo. H. Washburn, Mill- ville; Capt. George Campbell, Woodman; Henry Morgan, Watters- town; Calvin Brainard, Hickory Grove; Edward Smith, Marion; Lt. Jesse Roberts, Beetown; E. I. Kidd, Glen Haven; Thomas Prideaux, Little Grant; Capt. D. L. Riley, Patch Grove; James Woodhouse, Tafton ; John Trahn, Wyalusing.
The total cost of the monument was $6,557.07, of which $70.70

was for evergreens and grading. Of this amount $1,319.57 was raised by subscription and $5,237.50 was appropriated by the Board and paid by the county.
The monument stands near the northeast corner of the court house square. The principal part is a square obelisk of marble, with a mar- ble base and a stone sub-base. The shaft is surmounted by an eagle perched on a globe, holding a laurel wreath in his beak. It is five feet square at the base and twenty-six feet high. The dedicatory inscrip- tion is on the east side of the central shaft, surrounded by a wreath, and reads thus :
"Dedicated to the memory of the brave soldiers of Grant County, who fell in defense of universal liberty, in the great rebellion of A. D. 1861. This marble contains their names, the many bloody battle- fields of the South contain their ashes, their memory is forever en- shrined in the hearts of their countrymen."
Over this inscription are crossed flags, a cannon, and an anchor. The north side contains this inscription :
"We hereby highly resolve that these honored dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that the government of the people, by the people, and for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
Above the inscription is an anchor resting on a Bible, surrounded by a garland. On the west side, beneath four crossed swords, is the inscription :
"Go, stranger, to your country tell, For her we fought; we're buried where we fell."
On the south side, surmounted by a hand holding broken shackles, is the following inscription, taken from the Emancipation Procla- mation :
"I do order and declare that all persons held as slaves are and henceforward shall be free."
Surrounding this dominating central shaft are eight cenotaphs one foot square and four and a half feet high, at a distance of six feet from the main shaft. Each cenotaph has a Doric capital and upon it is carved a cannon pointing outward. On the sides of these cenotaphs are inscribed the names of 744 men who went out from Grant County (a few in the regiments of other States) to defend the Union, and died in the service, whether from wounds or disease. A list of these names is given on subsequent pages.
The monument was originally surrounded by a fence of chain

hung on marble posts, and with small evergreen trees, but in 1884 the Board ordered the evergreens grubbed out and the fence removed.
The momument was formally dedicated July 4, 1867, as had been ordered by the Board. The whiteshafts were decorated with wreaths of flowers and evergreens and the old regimental flags. An immense concourse of the citizens of every town in the county was assembled to witness the solemn ceremonies.
After a speech of impassioned eloquence by Matt Carpenter, who spoke as only he in all Wisconsin could speak, the dedicatory address was delivered by Governor Fairchild. He closed with this solemn and stirring peroration :
"In the name of the people of Grant County, who have erected this marble pile in honor of their services and in commemoration of their death; in the name of the State of Wisconsin, whose sons they were; in the name of our country, for whose preservation they fought and died, and whose gratitude is all their earthly reward; and in the name of the Great Creator of the Universe, to whom all hearts, nations, and peoples of right belong, and to whom only the greatness of their sac- rifice is fully known, we dedicate this monument to the memory of those whose names are inscribed thereon."
Then the dedicatory ceremony was performed. A guard of the Grand Army of the Republic commanded by Sergeant-Major J. M. Alford, with reversed arms, bearing the tattered banner of the Twen- ty-fifth, which some of them had seen on the bloody battle-fields of Georgia, marched with funereal pace around the monument.
The vast concourse then sang, to the air of America, the following ode composed by Amherst W. Barber :
To you, ye honored braves, Who rest in soldiers' graves, This shaft we raise. To you, who saved our state, This shrine we dedicate, Your deeds to celebrate Through future days.
Souls of the brave, look down! Accept this martyr crown We raise on high. Teach us through life to stand True to our native land; Teach us 'tis sweet and grand For her to die.

We consecrate anew This glorious day to you, O Liberty! We'll bend before the throne, And thank our God alone This land is still our own, And now is free.
The guard then fired a volley, which is the soldier's farewell salute to dead comrades. Rev. S. W. Eaton, who had been the honored Chaplain of the Seventh Wisconsin, offered an appropriate and fervent prayer, which closed the ceremony.
Upon receiving the work, the Board passed a resolution compli- menting the contractor upon the satisfactory manner in which the work was done; but years later it was discovered that he was only a contractor after all, and had hidden some scamp work in the fair- looking marble base. This was found to be only a skin of thin slabs of marble filled in with rubbish not even cemented together, and the weight of the shaft was crushing it. To save a few dollars' worth of marble and cement he had risked the ruin of a costly work. In 1896, the Board appropriated $130 for the repair of the base.
