"Last Thursday while at the residence of his son Mr. James T. Goodin in Martinsburg, Elder Hardin Goodin was crowded and thrown down by two horses he was leading into a stable and his right leg was broken a short distance below the thigh joint. He was placed upon a bed in a spring wagon and brought to his home in this city by his son, the latter's wife accompanying them. Surgical aid was summoned and the limb properly set. He suffered much pain at the out set but is gradually resting easier. His advanced age - some 85 or 86 if not more, is against a speedy recovery, but it is hoped that, being of good habits and a good constitution these will go far towards bringing him out all right as his many friends ardently wish."

Writes Interestingly to a Pioneer Friend
J. M. BUSH, Sr., Pittsfield, Ill.
Dear Friend:- It having been some time since I was permitted to meet you, I thought I would write you a few lines that might interest some of your readers. Seventy years ago last October I came to this county with my parents, brothers and sisters from Saline Co., Mo. Sixty-nine years ago Levi and Susan Kinman brought here their family from Hendricks Co., Ind. Among them was Rebecca, with whom I was united in marriage March 15, 1835, at the old Highland school house by Joseph Goodin, J. P. To us were born seven children, one of whom died at the age of 12 years, and we now have twenty-four grand children and twenty-eight great grand children. There have been many incidents connected with that period - some of pleasure, some of pain. I have noted the progress of our great country, have rejoiced in the success of individuals, have dropped many a tear of sympathy for many in adversity and have seen many a clod fall on the coffin of many who were near and dear to me to whom I hope to meet on that better shore. It pains me greatly to look over our great country that we were once so proud to call 'the land of the free' and see the honest sons of toil so weighed down by taxation and oppression. It is needless to tell you that I have been a Jeffersonian democrat all my life and I trust that we may yet have statesman who will not sell their birthright for a mess of pottage. I close hoping you a prosperous journey through life.
Yours truly,
HARDIN GOODIN,
