What happened here
An account from the chapter on Sprigg township, in the words of 1900.
Ellis Palmer
Was a Pennsylvanian, and had a brother most cruelly tortured and murdered by the Indians there. He vowed vengeance against all Indians, whether friends or enemies. It is probable that he has been the means of sending many a red man to the happy hunting ground. It is related that on one occasion an Indian in passing through the neighborhood stayed overnight with Will G Ibert, just over the Brown county line.
