CAPt! 'JACK'' CRAWFOUD DEAD.
Killed Wlilln KliKiiged I" Ocild Mlnlnc; In
Washington.
A eonv of the Itocky Mountain News, of
Denver. Oil., dated September 1st, contains
an article relating the death of Copt. "Jack"
Crawford, the Poet Scout, ns tho result of an
accident.
Tho despatch statos that news lias reached
Seattlo of tho accidental death nt the Blcwltt
gold mines, near lllewitt, Kittitas county, of
Capt. "Jack" Crawfoid, who claimed to bo
the original poet scout. Tlio accident took
place in what aro commonly termed tho
Hydraulic claims, lumtcil a snort instance
below Negro creek. Deatli came instantly
anil was probably caused by concussion of the
brain. Crawford hail been "piping" against
the bank and stepped upon a small elcvalion
to see what ell'ect tho water was having upon
tho bank. A rock fell from tho bank, strik
ing him on the breast, lie was thrown hack
ward and fell down hill eight or ton feet,
striking on the back of Ills head among somo
rocks. Ho died Instantly.
In tho death of Capt. "Jack" Crawford tlio
country loses ono of its most remarkable
characters. His career was kaleidoscopic
nml at times sensational to a high degree
His was a true experience of the tips and
downs of life and many lessons may lm taken
from it. Ono day he would sail on the crest
of a wave of prosperity, bo welcomed and
dined in somo of tho most influential circle
of tho country, anil the next day desperation
vrtmld staro lilm in tho face, Hut n lew-
years ago ho was a guest in tlio royal circles
of England. Now news is received that ho
met ho met his death while working in a
in I nu to earn a livelihood.
Captain "Jack" Crawford was Imm in tho
vicinity of Minersvillo in 1817. When very
young ho entered a coal breaker as a siato
picker. When 10 years of ago ho went to tin)
war, enlisting in tho same company with his
father, Benjamin, in tho 49th Pennsylvania
Volunteers. About a year later, while under
General Giant in tho Wilderness he was
badly wounded. His dischargo from tho
scrvico followed and ho returned to his native
place. Up to tho tlnio ho entered tho war
Crawford had secured no education,
but whilo on the field ho obtained a
scant knowledge of reading and writing
and upon his return homo Improved until ho
obtained a common school education. This
lie improved as ho grew older and almost tho
first goal his mind drifted to was poetry.
Although by no means a scholar ho became
the author of a great number of very
creditablo poems and at least two volumes of
them aro in circulation. They deal chlelly
with themes connected with tliocivil war and
border life.
Soon after rcturnfiig'ironr'lflo wXlTinU'w-
covering fiom his wounds Crawford went to
f lirardvillo and becamo a clerk in a goncral
ktoro there. His ambition and energy was
Mich that about a year later ho became Post
snaster of (lirardvillo, but through a mis
fortune, which in no way reflected upon his
loncsty, ho lost this position utter serving a
Ittlo over a year. Crawford engaged in
he green truck and fruit business from 1870
o 1872 in tho same town and then camo to
lienandoah and, in partnership with another
nan, hotignt out anil comiucicu a uiniani
oom in a building that occupied the sito of
f1'0 I0"' luilllliB. at the corner of
Centre and Market streets. In this business
(Crawford continued with considerable success
for nbout another year. Then tho Black
Hills fever broko out. Crawford becamo
restless. His love for adventure was strong
and ho was ono of tho first to striko out for
tho gold hills. Ho hurriedly disposed of his
interest in Ihe billiard room and went West,
leaving hi family here, but they joined him
soon after.
Craw.ord's ambition, daring nnd strong
person ility led him to tho front rank nnd ho
soon attracted tho attention of General
'G'us'jr, who mnilo him a scout to assist in tho
warfare against tho Sioux Indians. It was
),er0 that tho most eventful phases of tho
banded tho scout scrvico somo years nfler.
Ho was then assigned to Fort Craig,
New Mexico, as a sutler and during a
residence thero ot several years ho engaged
in (-peculating and gold mining, but without
success. Crawford then reached out for fame
and fortuuo on tho theatrical stago and also
on the lecture platform. At tho same timo
lio issued his books of poems and for
a whilo ho was quito successful. Ho went to
England, whoro his famo n3 a scout and
frontier poet had preceded him and his draw
ing room recitals becamo tho rage. Keturnlng
to America Crawford wruto a frontier play
On tho Trail." It had poetic
, .t
mem, ni
ut was not a success. A performance
was given in this town with no better en
couragement and Crawford and his largo
company stranded hero. J. J. Fmncy ad
vanced money to get tho company back to
New York. This was but a return for an act
of kindness Mr. Francy received from him.
At tho tinio of tho great conflagration in this
town in November, 18S3, Iraney becamo
pressed for money. Among his old accounts
was ono of $8 duo from Crawford. Francy
forwarded tho bill to tho west and Crawford
responded with a remittance of ?10 and tho
following poem :
When old nnd gray,
If on my way
Through lifo I chance to meet you,
We'll talk of joys,
When wo were boys,
Anil, Jim, old Jack will greet you.
it t warmth will twist Jour honest fist,
Nor blush if ho caress you ;
Vor love Is strong,
In humble song
The lovcVimyB heaven bless you.
Tho closing years of poor "Jack" Craw-
ford'gtlife wero tempestuous. Adversities
met him in rapid succession and ho was
finally obliged to abandon theatrical lifo. He
was financially stranded and when killed was
endeavoring to cam enough to keep him from
want when old ago would forco hlra to seek
well deserved rest. Crawford was always an
anient advocate of the cause of temperance
and during his extraordinarily varied career
ho never tasted intoxicants.
