Blackwell are two of the old- est and most highly respected residents of Grant County. They were both born in Hickman County, Tennessee. - They were married Sep- tember 9, 1847. Mr. Blackwell was born September 6, 1826. Mrs. Blackwell was born in 1830. Fifteen children have been born to them, two of whom died in infancy. Their living descendants number 13 children, 63 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchldren, a total of 89 . In 1861 Mr. and Mrs. Blackwell removed from Tennessee to Franklin County, Arkansas, where Mr. Blackwell engaged in farming. In 1854 they went to what is now Parker County, Texas. They returned to Arkansas just in time to escape a general massacre by the Comanche Indians in 1857, in which all their neighbors were killed. They then resided In Northwest- ern Arkansas until the spring of 1875, when they removed to Grant County, their present home. Blackwell engaged in stock raising. Soon after their arrival in this valley, in 1878, the country was ralded by Indlans, and it is said th:t had it not been for the courage and energy displayed by Mr. Blackwell a massacre of the twenty odd families then re- siding in Northern Grant County would certainly have occurred. Every family in the valley was brought to a point a few miles above the present town of Long Creek, and the men immediately set to work building a fort, and with energy born of degpsratlon succeeded in completing it a few minutes before the Indians arrived. Mr. Blackwell gave orders to the party not to fire a shot unless the Indians closed in on them, and to his good judgment in this respect the party no doubt owe their lives. Mr. Blackwell says that the Indians could have taken the little fort with ease had they stormed it, for the weapons of the settlers consisted of only a few guns of the old cap and ball pattern, and very little ammunition. But after firing a few volleys at the fort with the intention of drawing the fire of the settlers the Indians withdrew, evidently deeming the little citadel too strong to attempt a hand-to-hand attack. Mr. Blackwell says he thought the entire party would be massacred, but he and the rest cf the party determined to sell their llves as dearly as possible under the great odds against them. 5 The Indians contented themselves with stealing every horse in the val- ley and slaughtering the cattle and sheep and firing the settlers’ cabins. Mr. Blackwell lost several thousand dollars’ worth of livestock and his home and improvements. He has succeeded since, however, in amassing quite a fortune. - . | slats, otherwise he would not have had October 22. Those present were: Mr. and | se Mrs. La Chapelle, Mr. and Mrs. T.

Don’'t you want to meet me for luncheon at 2 o'clock? Then I'll tell you what I have done.” Gedleigh waited until half-past 2 and had just decided that his wife was not coming when she bore down upon him, looking tired -and nervous. “Oh, Carl! I am so sorry to be late, but I really could not help it. .

I just looked at them. I wanted to see what was going to be worn this season.” “And didn't you get a hat, either?” Mrs. Gedleigh shook her head. “I am all at sea about hats. I went to several of the largest shops and to some of the swellest private ones, and. everything this season is so unbecoming to me.” “Didn’t you buy any thing?” asked the bewildered husband. “Oh, yes; I bought some shirt waists that were marked down from $3 50 to $1 75, and I got you some lovely neg- lige shirts; you know yours are nearly all so faded.” “But I thought it was time to lay aside shirt waists and neglige shirts?" “Yes, but they will do for next sum- mer, don't you see?
