He built the old court houc at Jacksonport, which still stands; the stone arch bridge across Saludo Creek, and many other strue turea which will stand for years as monuments to his memory.

"I was also a friend of Governor Garland, and at the time I wan elected to the legislature. I was around his law office in Little Rock a great deal. He was a brilliant lrwyer and states man, but had his eccentricities. Once year he would give a big o'possum Jinner to his friendf, at his home, Hail, in South Arkansas. He never used anything but a quill pen write with and had dozens of these antiquated affairs lying on his desk in his office.

He refused to wear a belt and always wore home knit, wool Besides being Governor and U. S. Senator, he was Attorney General under Cleveland. After Cleveland went out he practised law in Washington. He fell dead in his office.

E. Givens, editor of the Batesville Guard, was a clerk in the U. S. Senate at that time, and picked Garland up when he fell. I had a friendly letter from him a short time before he died.

"I was well asquainted with General Albert Pike, Arkansas' greatest poet and Mason. He was also a great oldier, heading a brigade of Indians during the Civil War. While I was ia Augustus Garland's office in Little Rock, he would come in frequently for an hours visit. He was a cavalier in appearance, having beautiful long hair, which reached below his shoulders and which he kept carefully cursed. His was one of the greatest brains in America.

"I knew Thos. S. Drew when I was a boy in Smithville. He was a frequent visitor at our home and I enjoyed his company, as did my father. He was the crly governor of the state who could not make a living out of his office, and resigned for that reason.

He always dressed in brown jeans. Not a brilliant man, but a safe one. "Governor Wm. A. Miller, was born in Independence county, two miles east of Batesville.

The old Miller homestead is now in a state of dilapidation. He was educated at the Sauls-bury Institute in Batesville, one of the financially, I lx ran devil, but wa sor fleeted to the edilorirl as a reporter. That wrs the year of the yellow fever scourge In Memphis and it nearly depopulated that city. "One of the Freedman's Bureaus were located there and all the freed negroes were invited t' ccmc and bt fed. There were thousands them centered there and the filth was ter-rille.

All the whites who had the means to leave, left the city, and the population became about two-third. black and one-third white. "I wos rooming with a young fellow it porter from Camden, in the old Richmond Hotel. Our room had two cots in it and we rented it for loc a day. One night I came in late and my partner we.s lying on his cot asleep moaning.

I thought he was dreaming. Shortly before daylight I was awakened by a- lighted candle and taking in the room. The poor fellow hud the yellow fever and they came to take him to the pest houre where he died. "It was terrible in Memphis in those days. Negroes died by the scores.

They were buried in plain unpainted and undraped pine coffins it was nc uncommon sight to see dray wagons loaded as high as those coffins could be stacked carrying their gruesome loads to the potters field in the cemetery, with crowds of weeping and moaning relatives trudging along behind. "It was too much for me, and a few days after my room-mate died I caught a steamboat and came back to Arkansas. "At the end of the war our corn-man surrendered at Jacksonport in Jackson county and I went back to Smilhville. Our splendid home at that place and the rest of the town had been practically all wiped out by fire and desolation was on every side. I had no resources and had two sitsers and a younger brother to look after.

Green Smith, a farmer who owned an isolated farm in the hills near Smithville, had been overlooked in the general destruction and had made a small crop of corn that year. A lot of his land had grown up in briers and sprouts and I went over and asked him for a job of clearing. He gave it to me and paid me in corn. I carried this corn to a small grist mill and had it ground and the bread from this coin was the best I have eaten before tince "A year later I went to Batesville MALARIA UjPUa in 3 daya COLDS Liquid TaWet firM halve- Nose Drrtnn GASSVILLK LOIGE NO. 84 1.

I became well acquainted with him in the legislature in 1872, and for many years he was a visitor at our house every time he visited Batesville. M.

He lived on the lot now occupied by a filling station just across the street from where the Crouch furniture store is now lacted. His law office was located in his yard.
