ON MOUNTAIN SIDE
County Comer H. H, Trent was
called to Ringling last Sunday to
view the remains of James Kivett
who died on the range while herding
sheep for Crowley brothers. He made
the trip, leaving Sunday on Number
three, arriving at Ringling early Mon
day morning. He went by auto to
the Crowley Bros. ranch and from
there to the herders camp.
The body was found lying out in
the hills where Kivett had evidently
fallen from exhaustion and died.
There had been considerable snow,
so much that the body was covered
state of preservation. An examina -
and partially frozen, and in a good
tion by Corner Trent found no wounds
of any kind upon the body. An ex
amination of the stomach revealed it
to be empty and indicated that Kiv
ett had not eaten anything for several
days. Coroner Trent concluded no in
quest was necessary, that the man
had come to his death through lack
of food and dissipation.
Kivett was about 65 years old, and
had been working for Crowley Bros,
for five years. He has been a most
faithful worker during the entire
time. Nothing is known of his fam
ily, although it is known he came to
this country from Ireland and that re
latives live there. A search of his
clothing and personal effects failed
to bring to light any letters or other
information as to where his people

About three weeks ago Kivett drew
$400 of his savings from Crowley j
money was spent. He went out to
take charge of a band of. sheçp about
15 miles from Ringling, and was there
for ten days alone. From cqndition
of the body when found it is presumed
he had been dead for two or three
days when found.
Crowley Bros, took charge of the
body and caused it to be given pro

than this, that a man lay down his
life for his friend." The topic of dis
cussion was given in four distinct
divisions, in which Rev. Osborn de
picted the foundation of this nation,
its growth and development upon and
through the one ideal of manhood
and patriotic affection.
Rev. Osborn sketched the landing
of the Pilgrims, the ideal they car
ried of religious freedom, the May
flower compact of New England Gen
eration, and the Declaration of In
dependence. He traced this ideal
through the various vicissitudes and
hardships of a growing nation, to
the time of the Civil War. He pict
ured the Grand Army of the Repub
lic as the living expression of this
ideal. For the purpose of honoring
these men, both living and dead, he
stated, Decoration Day has been ob
served for more than 50 years. To
day the few remaining living of that
great army are reverenced and hon
ored by th-) whole people of the
tion. ' • ;

na
To the Spanish-American War vet
erans and to the American Legion
rests the task of continuing to sup
port and perpetuate this great ideal;
to maintain the nation that was es
tablished and which was preserved
by the Grand Army of the Republic.
Rev. Osborn pointed the way for those
of today in a most forceful manner.

Just before the meeting adjourned
Secretary Harader gave a short talk
explaining the plans and purposes of
the forum. ' , , v
F. O. Wilton as chairman of the
committee on construction -, of the
Seventh avenue road reported the
progress made. He stated there was
a problem before the committee at
this time to be solved in that it will
be necessary to secure, a 12 feet
right of way over the route fromi
which to secure sufficient dirt to
make a grade with proper surface
width. The federal aid is aéstired Mr.
Wilton stated, but it will be neces
sary to secure the additional width
to the roadway before the cohstruc
'
tion can be put under way. District
Engineer Rader of the highway com
mission gave an outline, of the con
ditions and explained the heed of a
high grade along, the thoroughfare
which requires the additional width

War. He called upon Rev. A. L.
Chapman, who made the address of
welcome. Rev. Chapman made a most
impressive talk, in which he expressed
to the veterans the venerance and
honor felt by everyone for them. He
spoke briefly of the struggle between
the Federal and Confderate armies,
each fighting for what was believed
to be the right.
Passing over the struggle
re-uniting of the states after the war,
Rev. Chapman then outlined the prog
ress that had been made by the na
tion in the following years; of the
cementing together of the North and
South displayed in the Spanish-Am
erican war. He. pictured how there
had today grown a feeling of pride
in every citizen for this country
greater than that held by any other
nation, which was displayed in the
great army formed »from every state
in the nation at the calling for troops
in the World War. Kev. Chapman
paid a great tribute to those soldiers,
who fought for their country in the
days of '61 to '65.
R. A. Nunnelly responded for the
veterans in a happy manner. He
told of the pleasure enjoyed by the
old soldiers at being guests of the Ro
tary Club, and how much they appre
ciated being with them. Re also
stated that the Rotary Club was the
first organization
of any kind ip
Bozeman to entertain them. During
all the years the post has been ip ex
istence here, Mr. Nunnelly stated, the
members had never before had the
plasure of such an occasion.
During the talk given by Mr. Nun- .
nelly, h e told of a few of his experi
ences during the war. These were
listened to with great interest by
those present. Some of the incidents
referrd to by him were humorous, but
most of them brought clearly to the
minds of his hearers the horfors of
war as it wa^ experienced in those
terrible days when'men fought for
th e life of the nation. When Mr.
Nunnelly suggested he had talked
long enough, the members of the Ro
tary Club told him to go on. "Tell
some more," was the answer. He
told of many days on forced march
without food or water, with barely
clothing enough to cover the naked
ness of the troops; of days and nights
without sleep. Th e talk was heard
with the utmost attention.
The program committee had ar
ranged for several numbers J>y the

Jensen, Westlake, Copping and

accompaniment for them, FVed Hoell
sang two solos, accompanied by Miss
