Andrews, one of the early hotel-keepers of New Berlin, who supplied them and said, " all right, pay when you can ; " and, says Mr. Killips, " I did pay, and did not forget the kindness of the Colonel, whose tavern was near the site of my store." Mr. Killips had his money changed by Alexander Mitchell, in his small bank, perhaps twelve feet square, and, that fall, bought his first 120 acres of Government land, in New Berlin, adding 40 acres ; that winter, which he spent with that kindly pioneer preacher, Rufus Cheney, he built a house, and was joined by his wife in the spring ; this wild land was cleared and reclaimed, and the good work continued; Mr. Killips settled in his present home in 1868, he owns 400 acres in New Berlin, and has earned a competence; several years ago he built two large stores in Kewaskum, Wis., where his sons engaged in business; in 1877, he built a store and hall in Franksville, Racine Co., where his son, Joshua, is in business; the next year, he built on Sec. 28, New Berlin, the large store and hall where his son Daniel now does business ; the hall is in " L " shape, 22x44 and 18x26 ; it is the only one in town furnished with an organ, and has been used by Happy Home Lodge, I.

Church, a stanch Republican, and a most earnest advocate of temperance ; to illustrate : While building a new house, his carpenters refused to work without free whisky ; one of them, George Hollister, stood by Mr. Killips, and urged him to hold out, going to the trouble of procuring new workmen, who finished the house, without the aid of fire-water; Mr. Killips has ever and always acted on this principle.
