2351 The Havre Plaindealer (MT), 20 April 1918

Old Timer Passes the Great Divide

E.A. Pepin, a pioneer resident of this city, died at the Sacred Heart hospital Monday afternoon after a protracted illness from Bright's disease. In an effort to prolong life, an operation was recently performed, but the disease had progressed too far for medical science to be of any avail.

Mr. Pepin came to this section in the early '80s, and first located at Fort Benton. Afterward he worked for the Broadwater-McCulloh outfit at Fort Assinniboine. He homesteaded 160 acres in what is now the heart of Havre, his homestead comprising that property now lying south of Third street and east of Fourth avenue. When the Klondike rush came Mr. Pepin disposed of his Havre property and sought the yellow metal in the north.

Deceased served for a number of years as deputy sheriff under Sheriff Buckley of Choteau county, and during the term of H.E. Loranger as Hill County sheriff he was under sheriff of this county.

Surviving the deceased is his wife, Helen Pepin, who is in critical condition and who until yesterday had not been notified of her husband's death. In addition to immediate family, Mr. Pepin is survived by four brothers and one sister.

Funeral services were conducted Wednesday morning from the Catholic church and the remains were laid to rest in Calvary cemetery.

2356 THE LONDO HOMESTEAD
written by Sophie (Londo) Madden

[Families of the town of Hewitt], pp. 50-128

Photo with article http://digicoll.library.wisc.edu/cgi-bin/WI/WI-idx?type=turn&id=WI.Hewitt&entity=WI.Hewitt.p0094&q1=londo

The Londo family came to Wisconsin from Canada about 1869, when my father, Adlor Londo, was about three years old. They were of French descent and spelled their name Langdeau which was the French spelling. It was later spelled Londo but pronounced the same.

They came as far as Stevens Point by train, and from there to Wausau by ox cart. The family consisted of Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Londo and 2 sons and 4 daughters. They purchased the block where the former Bellis Hotel stood now known as Hotel Wausau. They lived there a couple of years and then, my Grandfather homesteaded the North half of what is now the Fraaza Farms in the Town of Hewitt. There were no roads from Wausau out to the property, they had to chop a trail as they went and carry most of their belongings. Indians were living in the woods, and my father told me he used to play with the little Indian children, and he would ask my grandmother for bread and butter for them. He also told me my grandmother raised tomatoes as ornaments and would not leave them eat them as they were poison, but my father tasted them and liked them and ate them when Grandmother was not looking.

He also told of an old man that lived on the property just North of my Grandfather's. His name was Pete Shabuts, and father and his brother liked to play tricks on him. He traveled by dog sled and had a trail through the woods from his place to my grandfathers. One Halloween my Dad and his brother hung his sled up in a tree above the trail, and the old man could not find it. He told them later one day he was going along the trail praying that he would find his sled and he looked up to heaven and there it was hanging.

Gradually roads found their way to the farm and one was on the West side of the property now Highway "J".

My father and mother were married about 1889. A few years later my father took over the farm that my Grandfather, Uncle and my Father had cleared from the woods.

My mother was of German descent and came from Two Rivers, but this was one time the French and Germans agreed.

Our family consisted of 6 children, 3 sons and 3 daughters of which I was the fourth, and we were all raised on the homestead.

The first home I remember was built of 2 by 4's, one spiked on top of the other with square nails. It had a large living room and a huge kitchen
and four bedrooms. It was situated about in the middle of the farm.

During the time we children were growing up, we had a horse that had twin colts which were the delight of the family, and the talk of the neighbors. The mother died when the colts were I month old and we raised them by feeding them milk from a pan. When the pan was empty you had to run as they would turn and kick at you.

About 1913 my father built a new barn that was closer to the highway and a year later a new home was built, which of course we children thought was very grand. About 1930 that home burned down and the house that is presently on the property was built which has been remodeled since.

My brother Edmo took over the farm about 1940. The rest of the family were all married and had homes of their own. He sold the farm to Win. Behnke
about 1950 and it has changed hands several times since. Needless to say my early life was far different than it is now. We had no electricity, no running water, no indoor bathrooms, our bedrooms were very cold in the winter and my mother would heat a brick for us to take to bed to warm our feet. If we wished to go shopping, it was a long trip with horses and the roads were never plowed.

Frank Roullier has already taken possession of the Badger State House instead of May 1st as mentioned last week. The Manitowoc Pilot, April 4, 1901 page 8

The Badger State hotel at Mishicott has again changed hands, having been sold by Nicholas Nocker to Mr. Creton of that village. The transfer takes place at once. Manitowoc Daily Herald February 9, 1910

Mr. Nic Nocker sold the Badger State House for $7,100 to Mr. F. Creton. Mr. Nocker intends to invest in a small farm. The Manitowoc Pilot, February 10, 1910, Page 8

From the Mishicot Website

The Badget State House was built by brothers and Civil War Veterans August and John Terens not long after they mustered out of the service in 1964. August managed the badger as a hotel and barroom, while John built and operated a hardware store next door. The Badger was the first brick building in Mishicot.

Today, the Badger continues to operate as the Badger Bown and the Cozy Corner Cafe. The upstairs is now a private residence.

The date of the photograph is unknown, but is believed to have been taken around the turn of the century.

2360 The naturalization papers of Johann Boy Sonksen were filed in Manitowoc County. They tell us that he was born in Schleswig-Holstein, subject to the Crown of Denmark in 1828. He immigrated to America and landed at the port of New York in June 1851. He renounced all allegiance to Frederick VII King of Denmark. His papers are dated November 1st 1852. SOENKSEN, Johann Boi (I5946)

2362 The probate file is a thick one and most of the documents are hard to read but I did find what you suspected---Baby Anna died Sept. 30, 1870 and not the mother. Several documents mentioned Anna Rady. I found a paper that listed the Guardians as Wencel Chloupek, #1 and Anna Wanish, #2 for the child. The child was the heir of Wenzel Wanish's estate which consisted of land which was sold for $558.00 and personal property of farm equipment, 2 cows, 2 horses and harness, 2 calves,. I wonder if that is why a guardian was appointed--because a child was the heir of an estate.
There were no death records of Wenzel or Baby Anna at the Register of Deeds. On baby Anna's birth info, Herlik is plain as day.

2366 The St. Peter Herald says that, about three months ago, Herman Freitag, of Brown county, bought a team of horses from Henry Bode, of that city, and took the team from Mr. Bode's barn at Nicollet. About a week ago one of the horses made its escape from the pasture and found its way back to the Nicollet farm, some forty miles distant. The horse unassisted let down the bars, opened the stable door and was found in the morning in its old accustomed stall. Some sagacity about the animal surely. FREITAG, Herman J. (I904)
 
2367 The town board met in special session last Monday and at the request of Joseph Jindra transferred his saloon license to the building owned by him on the opposite side of the road from the old structure destroyed by fire on December 14th. Mr. Jindra, who was more or less seriously affected by inhaling smoke and heat at the time of the blaze, has now quite recovered therefrom. He reports the loss of all his books and papers, which were left downstairs, the safe being on the second floor. He also lost $200 or more in silver and currency, the money having likewise been placed elsewhere than in the receptacle. On top of this a policy for $1,000 had expired a short time before the fire, it being his intention to renew same, but it appears he waited a little too long. His loss will foot up $8,000 at least, with $2,000 insurance, which is a pretty bad blow for the family certainly.

2391 Three Souls are Called

Last week we briefly reported the death on Monday, Jan. 10, 1910 at the home of his son, Fritz Sporleder, in Sheridan township, of Carl Sporleder, aged 91 years, five months and four days. He was one of the few men in the county to reach such an advanced age. The events that have passed in history during his long life made and unmade nations, and the great achievements of science and inventions that have revolutionized the word and the condition of human life, were all brought about during the lifetime of this aged pilgrim.

Carl Sporleder was born at Dassel, Amt Einbech, Prov., Hanover, Germany, August 6, 1818. He was schooled there and was confirmed as a member of the Evang. Lutheran Church, which affiliation he maintained throughout the course of his long life of busy endeavor. At the age of 28 he was united in marriage to Miss Carolina Ernst, and there survive as the issue of their union, three sons, William, Sporleder, Pierce, Neb., Fritz Sporleder, Carroll, Ia., Henry Sporleder, Parsons, Kans., and Mina, Mrs. John Jonas, Two Rivers, Wis. There also survive many grand children and great-grand children.

Departed came to America in 1871, settling in Will county, Ill., where they resided until 1879, when they came to Carroll and he bought property in "West Carroll." It was while living there that his faithful wife died, 23 years ago, and since then he made his home with his sons, Henry and Fred.

The funeral was conducted from Emmanuel Lutheran Church Sheridan township, at two o'clock Wednesday afternoon, January 12th. Pastor Schmidt conducting the services. Interment took place at the cemetery adjoining the church.

There was an unusually large attendance from the surrounding townships, including the town of Glidden and this city, for departed was a man whom all liked and respected. He was a patriarch, at whose feet of old those of younger years sat to listen to words of wisdom, the fruit of ripe years, and experience. Time mellows such an one's views. He calmly regards men's faults and failings with the charity denied to those whose blood flows firily and who act from impulse rather than deliberation. The life of this venerable Christian, living by the rules of his faith year after year, rearing his family in the knowledge and fear of God, what a splendid example is it to emulate! His virtues should furnish a lamp to the feet of others, groping their way in the darkness of spirit caused by sin. That his years, filled with virtue, goodness and good incentive, may continue to influence others to strive for a better life, to seek the path of perfection and be able.
