Book excerpt: Excerpt from Warner's History of Dakota County, Nebraska: From the Days of the Pioneers and First Settlers to the Present Time, With Biographical Sketches, and Anecdotes of Ye Olden Times The task of writing this book has, indeed been no easy matter. It covers a. Period of more. Than five years of work in collecting data, inci dents, etc., which has brought 'me face to face with every old settler of the county, of whom I have gathered, from their own lips, the material contained in this history. One by one the pio neers are passing away, and my object was to collect from each one facts which in a few more years would have been buried with them in the grave and forever forgotten. I hope the children of the pioneers will preserve this record and keep forever green the memory of our county's.

They passed over the ground on which now stands Dakota City and found but one log house, covered with dirt for a roof, which was owned by J. D. M. Crockwell, who was the founder of Dakota City. September 11, 1856, moved his family into the pre-emtion cabin whicJi after the lapse of more than thirty years of changing scenes is still standing--a time honored land mark of the early settlement of our county and a relic of the years that have passed awny. Purchased a shingle mill in November and manufactured shingles all through that cold and stormy winter of '56 and '57, which will ever be remembered for its forty days of continuous freezing weather. Was ap-appointed postmaster at Covington in 1858; was also justice of the peace. May 1851, appointed clerk of the U. S. district court for the Third judicial district of the territory of Nebraska and held that office six years. In 1864 was appointed receiver of the U. S. land office for Dakota City land district and held that office four years and seven months, and on settlement of accounts was found short two cents, which amount was at once forwarded to the First National Bank of Omaha. In October, 1877, Col. Martin bought one-half of the Nebraska Eagle: afterwards sold his interest and founded the Argus in May, 1880. During his journalistic life he had written a continued story--"The Conflict; Love or Money"--and published in the Eagle and the Argus, which is remarkable for its great number of chapters and the liberal comments it received at the hands of the Nebraska newspaper men. His wife died April 16, 1887, of congestive chills, leaving three daughters and one son. In the tall of 1886 South Sioux City was laid out along the east banks of Silver Lake, adjoining his old...

Excerpt: ...before his death, Mrs. Randolph, one of the passengers in the stage coach that day, placed upon his finger a beautiful gold ring with these words engraved upon it: E. Umphry, G. C. Randolph and Hattie P. Randolph to ROBERT EMERY in remembrance of what we owe to his cool conduct and good driving on Tuesday, August 9, 1864. A STAGE COACH HERO OF THE LITTLE BLUE 141 And, looking at the ring, this stage coach hero of the Little Blue gave up the lines at the end of his last drive. QUESTIONS 1. Have you ever seen a stage coach? Have you ridden in one? 2. In what respects is a stage coach journey better fun than a journey by railroad? 3. Was Robert Emery just the kind of a man to drive a stage coach? Why? 4. What are such men as Robert Emery doing to-day? THE PRAIRIE FIRE ALL Nebraska was one great field of wild grass in the early days. A few trees grew along the streams and in the ravines. All the rest was grass. In the heat of summer the short grass dried on its roots. When the frosts of early fall came the tall, green grasses were killed. Then the autumn winds blew and the grass everywhere was dead and very dry. Prairie fires burned in this great ocean of dry grass every fall and spring. Indians or white hunters or campers started them. Once started a fire spread on and on until a rain fell or until it reached a river too wide for it to jump. One of the great dangers to the early settlers was from the prairie fire. To protect their homes and stacks from its ravages they broke a narrow strip of sod around them, then, at some distance inside of that, another narrow strip and burned the grass between. This was called a "fireguard." It was usually from four to eight rods wide. It would stop any common fire and keep the settler's house...
