Who does not remember Die Bull,
ihe prince of fiddlers. He had made a
outline by scraping Cat gu,, and bcinr a
man of liberal ideas, conceived the idea
of ami liuratinj; the condiiieti of his
eounti vmen, fnedesand Norwegians, by
liiUiidinjf a colony upon the Communist
ssteui in Potter county
lie had been made the victim ofnomc
land speculator, who bad induced him
to purchase a lare tract in a dense w il
iferness, and ot course heavily tuubeicd.
I'o settle this tract, his poor countrymen
were ready t'j unite, as thev were to be
employed and fed by their pal run, until
they had cleared farms and could mis
taiii thenitelves. It required a larire
amount ol funds to co'ouize, and as these
pe qile had laive appetites, ir was diffi
cult to transport provisions sufficient for
their sustenance. These settlers, who
iu iinaiiiMtion, saw turkeys and chick
pds in abundance, roast pijrs running;
round with carving knife and fork stuck
iu i heir backs, iu reality only saw " salt
L'ruli and hard tack,-' and not enough of
that. Dn Die Bull's tiist visit ulter their
coloniz ation, he tound them clamoious, il
not threatening. His replies to tlieir
wants were such as any sensible man
would make, " Ho was no butcher, and
could not supply beef, nor had he a
hennery to supply theui with thickens
and etrsrs." The upshot of the affair
was, "To your tents, oh, Swedes aud
Norwegians, all of you, and provide lor
yourselvts." They did so.
This visit of Die Bull to his colony
was chronicled in the papers, and auius
iiio so to those who were lully inform
ed of the facts. He was represented as
beiusi received mi l feasted t?j by his
jirutiy e, an i of bis " playini; to them
ou his fiddle, tlieir national uirs and
ballads, until they wept tears ol joy."
Oie Hull spent his fortune, which he
had only to repair by a return to his for
iner concerts.
