The Pioneer Days Sketches of Jamestown History

The excerpt recalls frontier life with Indians near Devils Lake and the Missouri, fort life, dances, alarms, and the Culbertson era. It notes assaults, murders, early marriages, and the 1876 Seventh Cavalry camp near the road, leading to battlefield memories and the Custer massacre context.

Nephews of slain Simon Welch arrive in city
Two nephews of the late Simon Welch, murdered at his farm near the city, have come from Morris, Alabama. They are sons of Welch’s brother and are prosperous farmers from northern Illinois. The brothers who moved from Trelami fifty years ago split. Simon moved west, and the two will remain in the city to pursue estate administration. Coroner White maintains the case but no further action will occur until Chilkott, the suspect, is captured. Meanwhile, railway earnings show year over year gains, while Wahpeton Grove resident Sunderhaus considers joining a Cape Nome dredging expedition.
