that office in 1859, and re-elected in 1861. In 1863, before the
expiration of his second term, he was elected to the United States
senate, and re-elected in 1869. March 4, 1875, he accepted the
position of secretary of war in the cabinet of President Hayes, and
for a time was acting secretary of the navy. In 1883 he was
appointed chairman of the Utah commission under the Edmunds bill.
In the various departments of public service to which he has been
called, Gov. Ramsey has acquitted himself well, displaying rare
qualities of statesmanship. He is remarkable for his caution, which
leads him sometimes almost into conservatism, but results have
generally proved the sagacity of his apparently tardy movements. He
is a master in the exercise of a wise caution in the conduct of public
affairs. He has, in fact, great political sagacity. He has made several
favorable treaties with the Indians, being empowered during his
term as governor to act also as superintendent of Indian affairs.
During his two terms as state governor, he rendered the country
great service by his prompt response to the calls for volunteers and
his decisive and unwavering support of the general government. He
also acted with great promptness and resolution in the suppression
of the Indian outbreak. As a senator he supported all measures for
the prosecution of the war for the preservation of the Union;
advocated the abolition of the franking privilege and assisted in
procuring aid for the building of the Northern Pacific railroad,
favoring the project of three trunk lines between the Mississippi and
the Pacific States and the general plan of aiding these roads by the
donation of alternate sections of public land, and was also active in
promoting the improvement of the Upper Mississippi and navigable
tributaries.
In person Gov. Ramsey is a hale, hearty, and well preserved
gentleman, who is passing gracefully into what with many is the
season of the sere and yellow leaf. He is genial and pleasant in his
manners, and would impress the ordinary observer as one whose
"lines have fallen in pleasant places," and who is the happy
possessor of a good digestion, a serene temper and a clear
conscience.
On Sept. 10, 1845, he was married to Anna Earl Jenks, daughter of
Hon. Michael H. Jenks, for many years judge of Bucks county,
Pennsylvania, a lady of rare accomplishments, and in every way
fitted to shine in the society into which she was introduced as the
wife of a governor, senator and cabinet officer. In private life she was
not less noted for her kindness of heart, amiability and christian
virtues. This estimable lady died in 1883, leaving a daughter, Marion,
the wife of Charles Elliott Furness, of Philadelphia.
Maj. Wm. H. Forbes was born on Montreal island, Canada, Nov. 3,
1815. His father was a Scotchman by birth, and was a member of
the Hudson Bay Company as early as 1785. Maj. Forbes was
educated at Montreal, where he also served an apprenticeship at the
hardware business, and afterward became junior partner in the
same establishment. At that time Montreal was the chief depot of
supplies for the Indian trade of the Northwest, and the reports which
continually came to him of that romantic region, together with the
sight of the Indians and voyageurs returning with their furs, so
excited his love of adventure that he resigned his position as partner
in the hardware business and accepted a clerkship with the
American Fur Company. John Jacob Astor was then president. The
conditions were that the clerk should speak and write the French
language, which Mr. Forbes could do with facility. Having engaged as
clerk, his outfit was conveyed in bark canoes from Montreal, in
charge of fifty men enlisted for a three years' cruise. Their route lay
by way of the lakes to La Pointe, on Lake Superior, and up the Brule
river, from which the canoes and baggage were carried across to the
waters of the St. Croix, and descended thence to the Mississippi.
From the Sault Ste. Marie to La Pointe they were transported on one
of the company's schooners. They arrived at Mendota in 1837. Gen.
Sibley was then in charge at Mendota. Mr. Forbes clerked for him ten
years, and in 1847 took charge of an establishment belonging to the
company (called the St. Paul Outfit), and became a resident of St.
Paul until his death, twenty-eight years later. Mr. Forbes was a
member from St. Paul of the first territorial council, and served four
terms. In March, 1853, he was appointed postmaster at St. Paul by
President Pierce, and held the office three years. In 1853 he also
formed a business partnership with Norman W. Kittson for the
general supplying of the Indian trade. In 1858 Mr. Kittson retired
from the firm, but the business was continued by Maj. Forbes until
1862, when the Indian outbreak put an end to the trade. During the
campaign he served as a member of Gen. Sibley's staff, and acted as
provost marshal at the trial of the three hundred Indians condemned
to death. At the close of this campaign he was commissioned by
President Lincoln commissary of subsistence in the volunteer service
with the rank of captain. He was elected auditor of Ramsey county in
1863, and served two years, though sometimes absent on military
duty. In 1864 he was ordered to the district of Northern Missouri as
chief commissary, remained two years and was breveted major. In
1871 he was appointed Indian agent at Devil's Lake reservation,
which position he held at the time of his death, July 20, 1875.
Maj. Forbes was twice married; first in 1846, to Miss Agnes,
daughter of Alexander Faribault, by whom he had one daughter, the
wife of Capt. J. H. Patterson, United States Army; again in 1854, to
Miss A. B. Cory, of Cooperstown, New York, by whom he had four
children, three of whom are living.
Henry M. Rice.—The family of Mr. Rice came originally from
Hertfordshire, England, to Sudbury, Massachusetts, in 1638.
Members of the family figured conspicuously in the struggle for
American independence. His parents were Edmund and Ellen Durkee
Rice. His grandfather Durkee was in the French war of 1755. Mr. Rice
was born in Waitsfield, Vermont, Nov. 29, 1816; attended common
school three months in the year and a private school and academy in
Burlington. He went to Detroit, Michigan Territory, in 1835; was
engaged in making the first survey of the Sault Ste. Marie canal,
made by the state of Michigan in 1837, and went to Fort Snelling in
1839. He was post sutler in 1840, United States Army, Fort Atkinson,
Iowa Territory, and was connected with the old fur company for
several years. He was elected delegate to Congress in 1853 for
Minnesota Territory and re-elected in 1855. He was elected first
United States senator for Minnesota, in 1857, admitted to his seat
May 11, 1858, and served until March 3, 1863. In 1860 he was a
member of the senate special committee of thirteen on the condition
of the country. During his term in the senate he was a member of
the following standing committees: Indian affairs, post office and
post roads, public lands, military, finance. He was on the last four
named committees at the expiration of the term of March 3, 1863.
In 1865 he was nominated for governor but was defeated by Gen.
W. R. Marshall. In 1866 he was delegate to the Philadelphia Union
convention. He also served in the following various capacities: United
States commissioner in making several Indian treaties; as a member
of the board of regents of the University of Minnesota; as president
of the Minnesota State Historical Society; as president of the St. Paul
Board of Public Works; and as treasurer of Ramsey county,
Minnesota. He is the author of the law extending the right of pre-
emption over unsurveyed lands in Minnesota. He has obtained land
grants for numerous railroads in Minnesota, and, with the assistance
of Senator Douglas, framed the act authorizing Minnesota to form a
state constitution preparatory to admission, fixing boundary, etc.
As a public man Mr. Rice has pursued a policy at once independent
and outspoken, not hesitating to express his convictions on the great
national questions of the day, and to place himself upon a national
rather than a party platform. During the war he upheld the
administration in a vigorous prosecution of the war, as the speediest
and most honorable means of obtaining peace. His letter to the St.
Paul Press of Nov. 1, 1864, contains sentiments that must commend
themselves to every true lover of his country. We quote a few
extracts:
"I believe Gen. McClellan and Mr. Lincoln both desire peace—both
the restoration of the Union. The one favors the return of the
Southern States with slavery; the other wishes these states to return
without that institution. I believe that the revolted citizens forfeited
all rights they had under the constitution when they turned traitors;
that the Emancipation Proclamation legally and rightfully set every
slave free. I am as much opposed to again legalizing that institution
in the South as I would be to its introduction in the Northern
States."
* * * "I am in favor of the return of the Southern States, and think
the day is not far distant when the same flag will float over us all,
and when that happy day shall arrive, I hope that the rights we
enjoy will be freely accorded to them, and no more."
* * * "When the Southern States return I shall be in favor of their
voting population being equally represented with our own, and no
further."
* * * "I think that in the long future, when all other of Mr. Lincoln's
acts shall be forgotten, his Emancipation Proclamation will adorn
history's brightest page. I am opposed to slavery for the reason that
I am in favor of the largest human liberty, and I can not understand
why some of our fellow citizens who come here that they might be
free can deny freedom to others."
* * * "I think it illy becomes those who took up arms to defend their
homes, their country, yea, liberty! to make overtures to armed
rebellion. I believe that by a rigorous prosecution of the war peace
will soon come, our liberties will be secured forever, and that
prosperity will follow. Union with slavery will be only a temporary
cheat, and can not last. Dissolution will bring ruin, anarchy and an
endless effusion of blood and money."
He has been a liberal contributor to the various public enterprises of
the city, to churches, public institutions and private parties. He has
built warehouses, business blocks and hotels. The park in front of
the city hall was donated by him. His name is inseparably interwoven
with the history of St. Paul and the State. Rice county bears his
name. He was married to Matilda Whitall, of Richmond, Virginia, in
1849.
Edmund Rice, brother of Hon. Henry M. Rice, was born in Waitsfield,
Vermont, Feb. 14, 1819. His father died in 1829. He received a
somewhat limited common school education and spent most of his
early life clerking. In 1838 he came to Kalamazoo, Michigan, where
he read law with Stuart & Miller, and was admitted to the bar in
1842, making commendable progress in his profession. While a
resident of Michigan he was master in chancery, register of court of
chancery and clerk of the supreme court. In 1847 he enlisted in
Company A, First Michigan Volunteers, of which company he was
made first lieutenant, and served through the Mexican War until its
close.
In July, 1849, he came to Minnesota Territory, locating in St. Paul,
where he became one of the firm of Rice, Hollinshead & Becker until
1855, when he embarked in railroad enterprises. In 1857 he was
elected president of the Minnesota & Pacific Railroad Company, and
afterward of its successors, the St. Paul & Pacific and the St. Paul &
Chicago Railroad companies. He has been long regarded as one of
the most energetic and competent railroad men in the State. Mr.
Rice has figured largely in the politics of the State, having served
several terms in the territorial and state legislatures. He was a
representative in the territorial legislature of 1851, a senator in the
state legislatures of 1864, 1865, 1873, 1874, and a representative in
the sessions of 1872, 1877 and 1878.
In 1885 he was elected mayor of St. Paul, and in 1886 was chosen
representative in Congress. Mr. Rice is an uncompromising Democrat
in his politics, and is so recognized by his party, which he served as
chairman of the state central committee in the presidential campaign
of 1872, and elector at large in the campaign of 1876. He was
married in November, 1848, to Anna M. Acker, daughter of Hon.
Henry Acker, of Kalamazoo, Michigan. Of eleven children, the fruit of
this union, all are living but the second daughter, Jessie, who
married Frank H. Clark, of Philadelphia, in 1870, and died in October,
1874. The eldest daughter, Ellen, is the wife of Henry A. Boardman,
of St. Paul.
Louis Robert.—Capt. Louis Robert was a descendant of the French
settlers who occupied Kaskaskia and St. Louis when they were in the
territory of Louisiana, then a French province. He was born at
Carondelet, Missouri, Jan. 21, 1811, and his early life was spent in
that region and on the Upper Missouri river. In 1838 he went to
Prairie du Chien, and in the fall of 1843 visited St. Paul and removed
thither the ensuing year, identifying himself with the interests of that
growing young city.
To say the least, he was a remarkable character. He possessed all
the politeness and suavity of his nationality, was impulsive, warm
hearted, generous and yet, as a business man, far-seeing and
loquacious. His broken English added a peculiar charm and
quaintness to his conversation, and he will be long remembered for
his odd expressions and his keen but homely wit. He was generous
in aiding any worthy object, and, as a devoted Catholic, gave
liberally to the support of his church. He donated valuable property
to church building and gave the bells to the French Catholic church
and the cathedral in St. Paul. His private charities were also liberal.
In 1847 Capt. Robert was one of the original proprietors of St. Paul.
He took a prominent part in the Stillwater convention of 1848. In
1849 he was appointed commissioner on territorial buildings. In
1853 he engaged in steamboating, and at different times owned as
many as five steamers. He was also largely engaged in the Indian
trade until the massacre of 1862. He died, after a painful illness, May
10, 1874, leaving an estate valued at $400,000. He was married in
1839, at Prairie du Chien, to Mary Turpin, who, with two daughters,
survives him.
Auguste Louis Larpenteur, the son of Louis Auguste, and Malinda
(Simmons) Larpenteur, was born in Baltimore, Maryland, May 16,
1823. His grandfather, Louis Benoist Larpenteur, left France about
the time of the banishment of Napoleon Bonaparte to St. Helena,
determined not to live under the rule of the Bourbons. Auguste L.,
the grandson, was reared in the family of his grandfather, his mother
having died while he was an infant. At the age of eighteen years,
with his uncle, Eugene N. Larpenteur, he came to St. Louis. Two
years later he came to St. Paul as clerk for Wm. Hartshorn and
Henry Jackson, Indian traders. The firm of Hartshorn & Jackson gave
place to Freeman, Larpenteur & Co. Mr. Larpenteur has been
continuously engaged in commercial pursuits since his arrival in St.
Paul in 1843. He has seen the city grow from a hamlet of five cabins
to its present metropolitan dimensions, and has been from the first
one of its most enterprising and reliable citizens. He was married
Dec. 7, 1845, to Mary Josephine Presley. They have five sons and
five daughters.
William H. Nobles.—William H., son of Rev. Lemuel Nobles, was born
in the state of New York in 1816. In his early life he learned the
trade of a machinist and became a skilled artisan. In 1841 he came
to Marine Mills, but soon removed to St. Croix Falls and assisted in
putting up the first mill there.
He lived successively at Osceola, at the mouth of Willow river, and at
Stillwater. He was part owner of the Osceola mills in 1846, and it is
claimed that he built the first frame house in Hudson. In 1848 he
removed from Stillwater to St. Paul, and opened the first
blacksmithing and wagon shop in that city. He made the first wagon
in the Territory. He was a member of the house, fifth territorial
legislature, in 1855, from Ramsey county. In 1853 he made an
overland trip to California, and discovered one of the best passes in
the mountains. 1857 he returned and surveyed a government wagon
road through that pass. As a recognition of his services the pass
received the name of "Noble's Pass," and a county in Minnesota was
also named after him. In 1857 he laid out a government road from
St. Paul to the Missouri river. In 1862 he entered the army and was
appointed lieutenant colonel of the Seventy-ninth New York
Volunteers, better known as the "Highlanders." While on duty in
South Carolina, a personal collision with another officer led to his
resignation. He was afterward cotton collector for the government,
United States revenue officer, and master of transportation at
Mobile. His health failing during his arduous service, he returned to
St. Paul, and died at St. Luke's Hospital, on Eighth street, aged sixty
years.
Col. Nobles was a man of immense vitality and energy, with a strong
inventive genius, by which he himself failed to profit; restless, fond
of travel, a little hasty and irritable, but possessing many admirable
traits. Mr. Noble was married in Illinois, prior to his location in
Minnesota, to Miss Parker, who survives him. Mrs. Nobles resides
with her family in California.
Simeon P. Folsom, a younger brother of the author of this book, was
born in Lower Canada, near Quebec, Dec. 27, 1819. His father was a
native of New Hampshire, and while he was yet young returned to
that state, removing subsequently to Maine. Mr. Folsom came West
in 1839, settled in Prairie du Chien, and not long after engaged as
clerk to Henry M. Rice at Fort Atkinson. In 1841 he returned to
Prairie du Chien and for two years acted as deputy sheriff, one year
as surveyor of public lands, and two years as surveyor of county
lands. In 1846 he volunteered as a soldier in the Mexican War, but
the company was sent instead to garrison Fort Crawford, where he
remained one year. On July 25, 1847, he landed in St. Paul, and has
been engaged most of the time since in the surveying and real
estate business. He was city surveyor of St. Paul in 1854, member of
the school board in 1858-59 and 60, and served three years as a
soldier in the Seventh Minnesota during the Civil War. He has one
son, Simeon Pearl, Jr., and one daughter, wife of J. B. Pugsley.
Jacob W. Bass was born in Vermont in 1815; came West in 1840 and
made his home at Prairie du Chien, where he kept a hotel and ferry
and engaged in general business. While a resident of Prairie du
Chien he was married to Martha D., daughter of Rev. Alfred Brunson.
In 1844 he purchased an interest in the Chippewa Falls mills, but in
1847 sold out, and removed to St. Paul, where he engaged in hotel
keeping in a building made of tamarack poles, on the site of the
present Merchants Hotel, and known as the St. Paul House. In July,
1849, he was commissioned postmaster, as the successor of Henry
Jackson, the first postmaster in St. Paul. He held the office four
years. He left the hotel in 1852. He has since resided in St. Paul,
where he has been engaged at different times in the real estate and
commission business and at farming. He has two sons. The oldest, a
graduate of West Point, holds a commission in the United States
Army; the youngest is in business at St. Paul.
Benjamin W. Brunson, son of Rev. Alfred Brunson, of Prairie du Chien,
was born in Detroit, Michigan, May 6, 1823. He came with his
parents to Prairie du Chien in 1835. He purchased an interest in the
Chippewa Falls mills in 1844, and in 1847 came to St. Paul and
assisted in surveying the first town plat. He laid out what was known
as "Brunson's addition." He was a representative in the first and
second territorial legislatures. He served three years during the Civil
War as a member of Company K, Eighth Minnesota Infantry, first as
a private, then as an orderly sergeant, and later as second
lieutenant. He has followed surveying many years, and has held
several responsible positions. He was married at St. Paul and has
two sons and one daughter.
Charles D. and Abram S. Elfelt.—The parents of the Elfelt brothers
came from San Domingo to the United States in 1801, on the
establishment of a negro republic on that island, and settled in
Pennsylvania, where Abram S. was born in 1827 and Charles D. in
1828. In 1849 the brothers removed to St. Paul and established the
first exclusively dry goods store in Minnesota, their building standing
near the upper levee at the foot of Eagle street. They also built the
hall in which the first theatrical performances in St. Paul were held.
This was the building now standing on Third and Exchange streets,
which was erected in 1851. At that time it was the largest building in
the city, and many of the old residents remember the ceremonies
attendant upon the raising of the frame. The dramatic hall was in
one of the upper stories, being known as Mazourka Hall. The
materials used in its construction were brought from long distances,
coming up the river by boat, and the laborers employed on the
building were paid five dollars a day for their services. Into this
building the Elfelt brothers transferred their store, stocking it at first
with both dry goods and groceries, but afterward limiting their trade
to dry goods exclusively.
Mr. Abram Elfelt originated the first Board of Trade, in 1864, and
when that body was merged into the Chamber of Commerce became
one of its directors. The brothers were public spirited and
enterprising, and always took a great interest in the welfare of the
city. Abram S. Elfelt died in St. Paul in February, 1888.
D. A. J. Baker was born in Farmington, Maine, in 1825; attended
school at New Hampton, New Hampshire; studied law and was
admitted to the bar in Kennebec county, Maine, in 1847; came to St.
Paul in 1848, and in 1851 made his home in the locality now known
as Merriam Park. It is on record that Judge Baker taught one of the
first public schools in the territory of Minnesota. He, with others,
pre-empted the land and located what is now Superior City,
Wisconsin, but sold his interests in that city. He was appointed to a
judgeship in Douglas county, Wisconsin, in 1854, and served three
years; was county superintendent of schools in Ramsey county for
twelve years, and was a member of the Democratic wing of the
constitutional convention in 1857. He has been a dealer in real
estate. He was married to Miss Cornelia C. Kneeland, a sister of Mrs.
Dr. T. T. Mann, and late widow of James M. Goodhue, in 1853. Mrs.
Baker died in 1875. Maj. Newson, in his "Pen Portraits," says of her:
"She was an affectionate wife and a devoted mother, and amid all
the trials and vicissitudes incident to the ups and downs of an old
settler's career, she never murmured, never complained, never
fretted, never chided; always cheerful, always hopeful, casting
sunshine into the home and weaving about all those she loved
golden chains of unbroken affection."
B. F. Hoyt.—Rev. B. F. Hoyt, a local minister of the Methodist church,
and a prominent pioneer of 1848, was born at Norwalk, Connecticut,
Jan. 8, 1800. He removed to New York State, and later to Ohio,
where he married and resided until 1834, when he removed to
Illinois, and in 1848 to St. Paul. He purchased the property bounded
now by Jackson, Broadway, Eighth and the bluff for three hundred
dollars. The following spring he laid it out as "Hoyt's addition." He
dealt largely in real estate and at various times held property, now
worth millions. He was instrumental in the erection of the Jackson
Street Methodist church, and aided in, the endowment of Hamline
University. He died Sept. 3, 1875.
John Fletcher Williams, secretary of the Minnesota State Historical
Society, is of Welsh descent, John Williams, a paternal ancestor of
the seventh remove, having come to this country from
Glamorganshire, Wales. He was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept. 25,
1834. He was educated at Woodward College and Ohio Wesleyan
University, graduating from the latter institution in 1852. He came to
St. Paul in 1855 and engaged in journalism and reporting for about
twelve years, during which time he acquired a thorough knowledge
of city and state affairs and an acquaintance with the pioneers of the
State, which knowledge he utilized in writing biographical and
historical, sketches, his principal work in this line being the "History
of St. Paul," published in 1876.
In 1867 he was elected secretary of the State Historical Society.
Upon him devolved the duty of arranging its volumes and collections
and editing its publications. Most of the memoirs, and historical
sketches are from his pen. He has gathered manuscripts and
material for a history of the State which will ultimately be of great
value. He is the honorary corresponding secretary of the Old Settlers
Association, not being eligible to active membership in that body,
which requires a residence dating back to 1850. Various diplomas
have been conferred upon him by the historical societies of other
cities and states.
In 1871 he was appointed by President Grant a member of the
United States Centennial commission from Minnesota, and served as
such to the close of the International Centennial Exposition in
Philadelphia in 1876.
John Henry Murphy was the first medical practitioner in St. Anthony
Falls, he having made that city his home in 1849. Mr. Murphy was
born Jan. 22, 1826, at New Brunswick, New Jersey. His father, James
Murphy, a shipbuilder, was a native of Ireland; his mother, Sarah
(Allen), belonged to an old New Jersey family. His parents removed
to Quincy, Illinois, in 1834, where John Henry obtained a good high
school education. He studied medicine and graduated from the Rush
Medical College in Chicago in 1850, and returned to St. Anthony
Falls, which he had made his home the year before. In this place he
lived and practiced his profession till near the close of the war, when
he removed to St. Paul.
In the summer of 1861, when Dr. Stewart, surgeon of the First
Minnesota Infantry, was captured at Bull Run, Dr. Murphy took his
place and served for six months, and afterward as surgeon of the
Fourth and Eighth Minnesota Infantry. Dr. Murphy was a
representative in the territorial legislature of 1852, and a member of
the constitutional convention, Republican wing, in 1857. As a man
and a physician Dr. Murphy has an enviable reputation. He was
married to Mary A. Hoyt, of Fulton county, Illinois, June 28, 1848.
They have five children.
W. H. Tinker was born at Hartford, Connecticut, in 1813; was married
to Elisabeth Barnum, at Rockford, Illinois, in 1840; came to Prairie
du Chien in 1843, and to St. Paul in 1849. He engaged for awhile in
tailoring, then in selling groceries, then clerked for S. P. Folsom &
Co., and also in the recorder's and marshal's offices. At one time he
owned eight acres in the heart of St. Paul, for which he paid two
hundred and eighty-four dollars, which is now worth a quarter of a
million.
George P. Jacobs was born in Virginia in 1832; was educated at the
Virginia Military Institute; came to Pierce county, Wisconsin, and
engaged in lumbering, afterward in farming and lumbering. He has
resided in St. Paul since 1870.
Lyman Dayton was born Aug. 25, 1809, in Southington, Connecticut,
and was early thrown upon his own resources. He commenced as a
clerk in a store in Providence, Rhode Island, and by faithfulness and
industry became in time a wholesale dry goods merchant. His health
failing, he sought the West in 1849, and selected for his home a high
bluff, to which his name has been affixed, near the city of St. Paul.
He purchased over 5,000 acres of land in the vicinity. The bluff is
now covered with palatial residences, business, church and school
buildings.
Mr. Dayton lived much of his time at a village founded by himself at
the junction of Crow river with the Mississippi. The village bears his
name. He was one of the proprietors and first president of the Lake
Superior & Mississippi Railway Company, and gave much of his time
and means to promote its interests. He died in 1865, leaving a
widow (formerly Miss Maria Bates) and one son, Lyman C., a heavy
dealer in real estate.
Henry L. Moss.—Mr. Moss is of English descent. His ancestors came
over prior to the Revolution, in which later members of the family
took a prominent part in behalf of the colonies. He was born in
Augusta, New York, and graduated at Hamilton College, New York, in
1840; studied law, and was admitted to practice in 1842 at
Sandusky, Ohio, where he practiced until 1845, when he removed to
Platteville, Wisconsin, where he became an associate with Benj. C.
Eastman until 1848, when he removed to Stillwater. He was the
second lawyer in this place. In 1850 he moved to St. Paul. He served
as the first United States district attorney for Minnesota Territory,
holding the office from 1849 until 1853. He was reappointed to this
office under the state government in 1862, and served four years.
Mr. Moss is a worthy member of the Presbyterian church. His moral
character and natural abilities have commended him for the
positions he has so satisfactorily filled. Mr. Moss was married to
Amanda Hosford, Sept. 20, 1849.
William Rainey Marshall is of Scotch-Irish descent, and of good

St. Croix Falls he sold goods; dealt in lumber, was deputy receiver of
the United States land office, and took an active part in the
boundary meetings. He was elected representative in the Wisconsin
assembly for the St. Croix valley in 1848, but his seat was
successfully contested by Joseph Bowron on the ground of non-

1863, he succeeded to the command of the regiment, and remained
connected with it to the close of the war, participating in the battles
of Tupelo and Nashville, and in the siege of Spanish Fort. Gen.
Marshall won for himself an enviable record as a soldier, and was
breveted brigadier general for meritorious services. In 1865 he was

the gubernatorial chair he resumed banking, and was made vice
