Sanders, who lives alone im the forests of the Osage, near the mouth of Proctor Creek, twenty Such a one as Samuel some miles south ot Versaillse. A Gazette | reporter recently visited the lonely hut of this whimsical specimen humanity, aod gleaned trom the following facts in r to history: He was born 1826 Owen county, Kentucky, and at the age of eighteen years came to Platte county, Missours. When the mexi- can war began, he enlisted under General Price and served as a com- mon soldier until peace was declar- ed, when he was honoraoly dischar- ged. He then settled in Jackson county this state, where resided when the late civil began. When the frst call was for volunteers he enlisted inthe federal army and served throughout the war him his in gard in he war made first- under General Thomas and then under General Rosencrans. Although Sanders has lived in this county eyer since the war issolated from society and seeming to care nothing for the comforts of c.vili- zed life, he 1s not unmindful ot the favors that Uncle Sam has been in- discriminately bestowing and like hordes otothers, he ‘‘wants a pen- sion.”’” He was seriously wounded at the Battle of Murfreesborough, has been partially disabled ever since aad we doubt not but he is entitled toad from the government. He declines to state why he lives aloof from men, but simply says ‘he chooses to do so, thathe has‘ never violated the law nor 1s he hiding trom any one.”? While he avoids the sacie- ty of his fellows, he is gentlemanly inhisrephes when accosted, treats visitors with courtesy and hos- pitality. He writes a fair hand, an average scholar and a great read- He yisits the nearest post office frequently to obtain papers. He says he reads but little and cares nothing about politics, but in gener- al news and literature he takes great and 1s er. interest. “nid Coat. Clinton Advocate. Itis presumed that every one in Clinton is familiar with the torm of Squire Els and the dark colored plush bound over coat that protects him trom the winds of winter. Still but few would judge from the look (if not too close) of said coat that it had been the only overcoat he had worn and constandy used since the tal! ot 1860—betore the war—but such is the fact.
