ALEXANDER ELLIOTT

About the same time Alexander Elliott came from Clark County for the purpose of preparing a home for his family. He had contracted the disease called " milk sickness " before he came, and was just recovering from it. By too great application to the arduous labor that confronted him here in the wilderness, he suffered a relapse, and died at the residence of Abijah Gandy. His family afterward moved to the place. His son John now occupies it; his son Samuel has emigrated to the West.
