THE NUItHTKRKU E.WUHANTM.
A REMINISCENCE OF THE MASSACRE BV
ONE OF THE SURVIVORS OF THE PAR
TY THAT REFT ARKANSAS.
Nan Francisco, March 24, dispatch to Now York
Herald. |
The following Is the substance of
some information of interest ooocern
lur tbe Arkansas emigrant train
which was intercepted at Mountain
Meadows, Utah, on the 15th of Sep
tember, 1857, as furnished by one of
the original emigrant party. With
the exception of the seventeen in
fanta spared by the Mormons, or
such of them as yet survive, but
four persons are known to be still
alive who set out with the train from
the Arkansas line. The lives of the
latter were saved through a quarrel
which resulted in their separation
from the main party a few days pre
vious to the massacre. Their names
are Ephraim Mathias, residing in
Nevada; Joseph Ware, believed to
be somewhere in this State; Mrs.
Duck, widow of W. B. Duck, who
was the leader of the little party
which abandoned the train, residing
at Fort Wayne, lad., aud P. K. Ja
coby, a brother of Mrs. Duck and a
member of tbe police force of this
city, who furnishes these particu
lars :
The train was organized at Fair
vilie, Ark., and started on its journey
in April, 1857. It numbered 140 souls
—men, women and children. They
hod with them 9oe head of cattle in a
herd, aud 100 workiug oxen drawing
the sixteen wagous. The leading
families were the Bakers, of Arkan
sas, consisting of the elder Baker,
with his wife and family, and two
married sons with their families;
the Hough tamily, from Arkansas,
and the Reeds, from Missouri, com
prising Reed, sr., and family, and
his son and family. Mr. Hack and
party, including Oilicer Jacoby, join
ed the train from Ohio. The Reeds
and Bakers were the principal
owners of the stock, and also had in
their possession a considerable
amount of specie, their design being
to make large investments in land in
the southern part of this State.
There were also half a dozen other
families, whose names are not now
remembered by Jacoby. A large
number of hired men accompanied
tbe train as bullwbackers and stock
herders, aud the party included be
tween thirty and forty children rang
ing from iufancy up. Several iami-
Ues joined the train at a station iu
the Indian Territory, the last point
of departure from civilization.
The rodte taken was up the Ar
kansas river to the vicinity of Pike’s
Peak, and from this locality on the
middle emigrant road to Fort Bridg
er, wbioh point was reached about
the beginning of September. During
tbe journey the emigrants were fre
quently molested by the Indians. On
one occasion, shortly before reaching
Fort Bridger, the whole 900 head of
loose cattle were stampeded aud run
off in the night. A strong detach
ment was counted off from the train
and started in pursuit of the Indians
under command of a noted plains
man from Missouri.
The chase was continued for three
days, in which time the party cap
tured an Indian and pressed him into
the service as a guide. To save his
own life the redskin conducted tbe
party to an Indian villageatnong the
bills. The savages were surprised
and stampeded in turn and all tbe
cattle were recovered with the ex
ception of seventeen head, together
with a good quantity of loot iu the
way of buffalo skins and other effects
to partially compensate for the
trouble the Indiaus had caused. Be
fore reaching Fort Bridger, Hough,
one of the leaders from Arkansas,
was bitten in tbe hand while asleep
by a tarautula, aud his sufferings,
which delayed the party some days,
resulted in' death, leaving a widow
and a large family of young children,
but, as fate decreed, tbey did not
long survive to need his protection.
The train was composed of antago
nistic elements. The larger portion
of those composing it were from Ar
kansas and Missouri, but a party, of
which Duck was the leader, caine
from Ohio and other States that had
been slow to recognize tbe validity of
the fugitive slave law. On reaching
Fort Briager, then an outpost of the
Mormon horde who were in rebellion
against tbe Government, the defec
tion in the train resulted in the with
drawal of Duck.
The Ohio family, with about 400
head of stock, had struck out from
Fort Bridger down the Bear river, on
what was known as the northern
route, and reached California with
out further mishap of consequence.
About two weeks from their depart
ure from Fort Bridger they received
intelligence from a party that over
took them, that the Arkansas train,
which they had abandoned, had all
been massacred. The bloody deed
was attributable to tbe Indians.
Dr. Nchenrk'n standard Remedies.
The standard remedies for all diseases
ef the lungs are Schenck’s Pulmonic Syr
up, Schenck’s Sea Weed Tonic, and
Schenck’s Mandrake Pills, and if taken
before ttie lungs art} destroyed, a speedy
cure is effected.
To these three medicines Dr. J, H.
Sehenck, of Philadelphia, owes his unri
valled success in the treatment of pulmo
nary diseases.
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the mordid
matter In the lungs; nature throws it off
by an easy expectoration, for when the
phlegm or matter is ripe a slight cough
will throw it off, the patient has rest and
the lungs begin to deal.
To enable the Pulmonic Syrup to do this,
Schenck’s Mandrake Pills and Schenck's
Sea Weed Tonic must be freely used to
cleanse the stomach and liver. Schenck's
Mandrake Pills act on the liver, removing
all obstructions, relax the gall bladder,
the bile starts freely, and the liver is re
lieved.
Schenck’s Sea Weed Tonic is a gentle
Stimulant and alterative; the alkali of
which it is oornp<ised mixes with the food
and prevents souring. It assists the di
gestion ky toning up the stomach to a
healttiy condition; so taat the food and
the Pulmonic Syrup will make good
blood, then the lungs heal, and the patient
will surely get well if care is taken to pre
vent fresh Cold.
All who wish to consult Dr. Schenck,
either personally or by letter, can do so at
his principal office, corner of Sixth and
Arch, streets, Philadelphia, every Mon
day.
Schenc'ks Medicines are sold by all
druggists throughput the country.

fiend Advice.
Now is the time of year for Pneumonia,
Dung Fever, Ac. Every family should
have a bottle of Boschee’s German Syrup.
Don’t allow for one moment that cough to
take hold of your child, your family or
yourself. Consumption, Asthma, Pneu
monia, Croup, Hemorrhages, and other
fatal diseases may set in. Although it is
true German Syrup is curing thousands
of these dreaded diseases, yet it Is much
better to have it at hand when three do
ses will cure you. One bottle will last
your whole family a winter and keep you
safe from danger. If you are consump
tive, do not rest until you have tried this
remedy. Sample bottles 10 cents. Reg
ular size 75 cents. Sold by your Drug
gist.
