of Indian Affairs, Washington, D.C. Sir: There is transmitted herewith the application of Adelie Morin, of Medicine Lake, Mont.
for a patent in fee covering the lands described, and I submit my answers to the several interrogatories herein: Are you
personally acquainted with the applicant? YES Is the application in the handwriting of the applicant? NO Is the applicant a
person of good character and reputation? YES Is he industrious and self-supporting? YES How is herself support obtained?
She and her husband are farmers and earn their living by farming. Is ..he addicted tothe use of intoxicants? NO Married. I do
not believe her husband would get possession of her land and then desert her. They are both old, born in 1846. All of the land
Value: Not over $1600.00 Has received no patent in fee. No honor roll here. Has a grandson. No funds. The applicant is not in
debt, and I believe her answers are correct. The experience which comes to any farmwife, and through association with her white
neighbors. Her son's (inherited land). It is in the same locality and adjoins her own allotment. It would be well to sell this
inherited land, but the applicant wishes to manage her own affairs. Yes. The heirs to the above estate Andrew and Adelie Morin,
have requested blanks on which to make application for fee patent for their inherited land. Recommendation: Yes The applicant
resides in Montana and is well able to manage her own affairs. I beleive her idea of purchasing stock a good one and there is
more money in it than in farming. It is hard to distinguish these people from white people, and they should be encouraged in
their efforts. They are intelligent and should be granted the privilege of managing their affairs free of Departmental control.

1908 census roll that there are 10 in this family, that would mean that at the last payment the parents received $900. As there
was $100 deposited. Now it seems that this is quite a good sum and that if he has used the $900 wisely; that it could easily be
seen. If he has nothing to show for the money paid him last year, that is judging from the amount paid him, then I would
recommend that he receive no more of his children's money. Please investigate this case thoroughly and report. This man

the father gave no reasons but stated he would like them to be in school. He said he used all of last years money to pay his debts,

letter of June 14th, relative to request of Andrew Morin for his children's money, I enclose herewith a letter received from Mr.
Wagner regarding this man? Judging from Mr. Wagner's letter, it appears that the money paid Morin a year ago was well used?
No doubt the disappointment in not receiving his annuity money this spring puts him in a much worse condition then would he
have been had he known that the payment would not be made. I believe that the money paid him at this time could, and would be
well used, therefore, I would respectfully recomend that he receive the shares due his children. Which I understand is $100.

TO DEATH - BODY FOUND BY SEARCHING PARTY IN HANCOCK HOUSE LAST FRIDAY AFTER LONG SEARCH.
The party of searchers who for four days had been searching the prairies for John B. Moran, found his frozen body last Friday
noon in the storm shed of the uninhabited Hancock house about two miles east of town. Mr. Moran had been in town Monday,
January 25th which will be remembered as one of the coldest days and did not leave until after night. It is supposed that in order
to keep warm he got out of the sleigh to walk when the team got away from him and then feeling himself getting colder tried to
gain shelter going to the deserted Hancock house. He succeeded in getting in the storm shed but could not get into the house
where he perhaps intended to start a fire. The team came home Tuesday morning and immediately a searching party was formed
and not until the following Friday was his body found. The deceased has been living on a farm five miles east of here for the past
five years, he leaves a wife and several children to mourn his loss. Funeral services were held here Sunday, interment being
made in the local cemetery. He was buried on 31 Jan 1915 at Medicine Lake, Sheridan County, Montana.
As of 5 Feb 1872, he was also known as Jean Baptiste Morin(SN1, B-5.). He was in the census household of Andre Morin

Mr. Stephen Janus, Supt.Turtle Mountain School Sir: This is to acknowledge receipt of your report on the application of John B.
Morin for a patent in fee covering his allotment No. 164 described as the SE/4 of Sec. 26, T. 156 N., R. 104 W. of the 5th P.M. in
North Dakota, containing 160 acres. It appears from your report that you value the land at $1500, or less than $10 per acre. The
allottee values the land at $2000. In this connection you are advised that a report from the Acting Director of the Geological
Survey, dated April 22, 1912, shows as follows:
This land, which is included in an outstanding coal withdrawal, was examined during the field season of 1911 by geologists of
the Survey. Classification of the area examined has not yet been made but the records show that this land is underlain by a
workable deposit of lignite and that it will be classified as coal land. The appraisal price of land underlain by lignite is, under
Departmental Regulations, $20 per acre if within fifteen miles of an operating railroad, and $10 ifmore than fifteen miles from a
railroad. Minerals other than coal are not known to occur here.
In view of the report of the Geological Survey, please advise the Office whether, in your opinion, it would not be for the best
interest of the allottee to withhold the issuance of the fee patent.
It appears from the reports of the Geological Survey that considerable land under your jurisdiction is classified as coal land, and
in this connection you are requested to report as to whether persons interested in the development of coal properties have
purchased or made any effort to purchase very much of the land that has coal possibilities.

you would recommend it. And I have never heard from you yet in regard to it. You told me you was going to help me out last

hope you will help me out this Spring by giving me my patent in fee. I almost lost all my horses also. I made some arrangements
so I got my horses back. I would not like to go in debt this Spring if I can help it. Hoping to hear from you soon. Yours
Respectfully, John B. Morin(Ibid.). Letter: on 17 Mar 1913 at Turtle Mountain Reservation, Belcourt, Rolette County, North
Dakota, Letter in file: Turtle Mountain Indian School; Belcourt, North Dakota March 17, 1913 Mr. John B. Morin, Medicine
Lake, Montana Dear Sir: This is to acknowledge receipt of your letter of March 12 in which you ask regarding your patent in fee
to your allotment situated in the Minot land district and described as the SE/4 of 26-156-104, and containing 160 acres. In this
connection I have to advise that the Indian Office in Washington is adverse to granting patents in fee and have refused to grant
you one. They state that the Geological Survey people have examined land in the vicinity of your allotment and that from their
report it might appear that there were coal deposits under your own land which would make it very much more valuable. In fact,
the Survey states that your land is underlain by a workable deposit of lignite and that it will be classified as coal land. In this
case your land is worth from $3000 to $3500 instead of only $1500 or $2000 so that the Department in Washington would not
grant you a patent in fee at this time as the land would become more valuable each day and if you were given a patent in fee and
sold your land you would lose a valuable piece of land. I would request that you advise me as to your plans for this coming
summer. Where are you making your home? What lands are you cultivating this year? Are all your children residing with you or
are some of them attending some boarding school? Have your ever lived upon your allotment, the one your wanted a patent in
fee to? Or have you ever lived upon your wife's allotment? Or any of your children's? Please write me full particulars so that I
may know what you have been doing and what your plans are for the future as this will be to your advantage and to my
advantage. Respectfully, Stephen Janus, Superintendent(Ibid.). Letter: on 26 Mar 1913 at Medicine Lake, Sheridan County,

Stephen Janus Supt., Belcourt, N.Dak. Dear Sir: Yours of the 17th 1913-2091-1911 in which you state that the Indian Office at
Washington is averse to granting me a patent in fee. I personally know that my land is worth $3,000.00 to $3500.00 the
$1500.00 was just a maximum. I don't intend to sell my land but simply to make loan so I would not be deprived of my seed for
this spring. I am living on my minor son's allotment\David and Isabelle. I have 110 acres on David's allotment and 20 acres on
Isabelle's allotment under cultivation. I have four horses, 2 cows, 2 calves, 1 well 100 feet which cost me $303.00, 1 wi nd mill,
200 acres of pasture, 1 lumber wagon, 1 drill, 1 - 26 ft. Harrow, frame house 2 story - 16 x 24, frame Barn - 24 x 24, 2 Granaries
10 x 10 - 12 x 12 frame, 50 chickens. My wife has no allotment. I live 5 miles from Medicine Lake Montana. I have five children
at school at Fort Totten, N.Dak. I never lived on my own allotment for the reason that my allotment is too far from Market for
where I am living. I am less far from market which is to my advantage. My plans for the future is to improve my children's land
so when they grow to adult age they will have a ready made home. ..... I suggest that I am ..... recommend me for a patent in fee
for I think that I am entitled to it. Thanking you in advance. Remain Yours, Yours Respectfully, John B. Morin (Ibid.). Letter: on

application of John B. Morin.................. Personally Acquainted: Yes In his handwriting: Yes Good Character/reputation: Yes
Industrious/self-supporting: Yes Self-support: Farming on son's allotment Addicted to intoxicants: Not to excess Whole
allotment. $3000.00 value No honor roll established at this Agency. His children have no funds. His answers are correct.
Practical business expense: As farmer; general laborer. He can handle any ordinary business deal. Has had considerable
experience among whites. He does not live on the Reservation but lives about 300 miles from this agency. No inherited land. He
is qualified to manage his affairs successfully: yes Do you recommend that a patent in fee be issued: yes Reasons: He
associates entirely with whites 300 miles from this reservation. He reads and writes and has managed his own affairs, outside of
his allotment very well and is getting along good. He can handle any business that might come up in his line. Notwithstanding
the fact that there might be coal under his allotment I see no reason why he should not be made a citizen and placed on his own
lookout. He knows how and I believe he will make good. He requested a patent in fee before but I recommended it withdrawal
soon after submitting his request and my favorable report thereon, so that I could investigate his case further. But I am of the
opinion he will do well and recommend again that he be given a fee patent to the whole of his allotment and made a citiz en of the
community in which he now lives and where he has been living for some time. A list of the property that he has accumulated
during the past few years is attached for the information of the Office. Superintendentafter 3 May 1913 at Turtle Mountain

Madam: We have your letter of June 30, 1936, relative to information about your deceased husband, John B. Morin, as this
information is needed for your application for an old age pension. There is nothing in our records to show where your husband
was born. We have made inquiries, and our Chief of Police reports that he has talked with John B. Laterregrass, and Mr.
Laterregrass thinks that your husbandwas born in Canada, as the family came from Canada. In those early days there were no
ports of entry along the Canadian boundary, and the Indians went across the line at will, as they lived along the Canadian line,
and paid no attention to it. Your husband was a member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians, and was so
recognized by the United States Government, and was given an allotment and was a ward of the Government until he received a
patent in fee for his land. We trust you will be able to get your application thru and approved so that you will get an old age
pension. Should there be any way in which we can give your further help, let us know. Very truly yours, J.E. Balmer,

Mountain Reservation, Belcourt, Rolette County, North Dakota, Letter in file: Turtle Mountain Consolidated Agency; Belcourt,
North Dakota August 19, 1958 Mr. Joseph D. Morin Marion, Montana
Dear Mr. Morin: We have your letter of August 11, 1958, asking about the description of allotment of your deceased father, John
B. Morin, for which a patent in fee was issued under date of July 26, 1913. This allotment was described as SE/4, Sec.26, T.156
N., R.104 W., 5? principal meridian, in Williams County, North Dakota. It contains 160 acres. Your mother reported to us that
your father died on January 27, 1915.
After the issuance of a patent in fee, the government has no longer any control or supervision over an Indian allotment. We, of
course, have no way of knowing whether your father sold this allotment or whether, because of the mortgages that were taken
against the land when he purchased the team of horses, harness, wagon, wagon box, etc. he gave a mortgage. If he gave a
mortgage on the land, then the owner of the mortgage could foreclose if the mortgage was not paid in full. If he sold this
allotment, then the warranty deed he gave for it should be on record in the courthouse at Williston, North Dakota. You might call
at the courthouse and ask the Register of Deeds about any sale of this land.
As to the oil, gas, and mineral rights, unless they were reserved when the land was sold then the purchaser would receive any oil,
gas, or other mineral rights. If mineral rights are to be reserved, a statement to that effect must appear in the deed. The Register
of Deeds at Williston can give you this information.
We hope you will be able to visit the Register of Deeds at Williston and get all the information you need about your fathers
allotment and the patent in fee which was given to him for it.

Rosalie and Alfred Morin were married in St. Michael's church in Maryville, ND on Nov 27, 1901. Two of Alfred's brothers
married two of Rosalie's sisters. John married Mary and Louie married Adeline. This made a close knit family and more so
because they all lived near each other. They lived in ND for 6-1/2 years. There, four children were born to the couple: two sons,
Alfred Jr., born Oct 3, 1902; Andrew, born Dec 18, 1903; two daughters, Doveline born Oct 12, 1906; and Josephine born in
1907. In 1909, sorrow struck their home with the passing of their daughter, Josephine, who was 18 months old. Alfred took her
to Culbertson in 40 degree below weather for burial as there as no cemetery in their own town of Flandrem. The Morins were
devout Catholics and Alfred helped a great deal in building St.Patrick's Church in Medicine Lake. Mrs. Morin was one of the
first members of the Altar Society. Renting their land to their son, Freddie, in 1948, they moved to Medicine Lake. Nov 17, 1951,
Alfred and Rosalie celebrated their 50th Wedding Anniversary. Mrs. Morin passed away June 14, 1955. The next year their
granddaughter, Gladys Barsness, was married on their anniversary to Gordon Frost. Their oldest son, Freddie, died August of
1956. At That time, Eddie farmed the land (SD, page 421-422.).

The Morins during their early life lived south of Belcourt. They finally settled about eight miles north and east of Dunseith on
Louise's Indian Allotment. Peter raised cattle for a living along with poultry and a few pigs. There was always a large garden to
supplement the little income especially during hard times. Peter and his family loved to play cards such as whist, many times
inviting several families for a whist party. Peter was well known in the area and being a jolly fellow was often called on at
weddings to entertain with his French songs.
Peter raised his family on his farm raising cattle, milking and selling cream. The boys also hunted wild game and trapped
muskrats, mink, etc., to help their dad to bring income to the family. Richard served in the armed forces. Peter was great in
telling stories of long ago making parties and groups he entertained at ease. People in the area will long remember Peter for he
was a jolly good fellow' (Prairie Past and Mountain Memories: A History of Dunseith, North Dakota 1882-1982, n.pub.,

'CHRISTMAS ON THE FARM'; Veda and Olivine LaRoche; by John F. LaRoche:
'I guess a hard part of a person's life is actually growing up. We being from a farm family, in the 30's was no exception. Mainly
chores (work) even at 6 or 7 years old, milking a cow, feeding chickens, helping in the garden, all led to the thought of running
away, and I'm sure I was no exception. (Did we ever envy the town kids.) Even though things do change it is many years before
you realize different. I do not remember a single time that we ever went without love, and never cold or hungry.
'Of course the best time of the year was Christmas. The fondest I remember were in about 1938 and 1939. Our mother would
spend weeks preparing food. Ho! Ho! Christmas day guests (relatives), start arriving. Grandma Morin, Uncle Joe's, Thore's,
Chet's, Dan and Alice and little one. Probably a few hangers-on (always welcome) with all of these. Sometimes with the roads
blocked Dad would meet them with the horses and sleigh. He'd leave home early with the hayrack partly full of hay. He'd pick
up Uncle Chet on the way. What a sight, everybody singing when they pulled in the yard. Dad of course driving tall in his sheep
skin coat.
'What fun, kids, sliding down hills (there was always snow), playing in the barn, in the hay stacks, presents to open. New games
were always welcome. In the evening, Bingo if you were old enough. Being mainly of French descent everything was lively.
Guitars were common. I think a banjo. You start outwith Uncle Charly, Joe Red and Chet Shafer on the fiddles. The waltzes,
square dances called by my Dad. Waltz quadrille was common, and of course - just plain music. Maybe a jig thrown in. Broom
dance (this was solo). You have to realize that this home consisted of three shacks put together and probably banked with
manure. One thing my folks always had was a big kitchen. I'm guessing 14 by 20 feet, and there was not a lot of knick knacks in
them days, but 24 to 30 people was still plenty, especially with everybody lively.
'When things did quieten down in the wee hours, the beds were full along with the chairs and the floor. The day after Christmas
was Aunt Isabel's birthday. This was also butchering day. Probably 5 or 6 pigs and usually a cow. To us kids this was fun. We
were allowed to scrape along side of the grownups. When this was going on the women would be making blood sausage,
headcheese, etc.
'This being completed another night of festivities would commence. Maybe not as lively.
'Day 3 people would go home each with meat.
'This may have continued into 1940 but we were all down with chicken pox or something like that, so it was just our family. I
don't think even a hired man.
'By 1941 most of the family were away to the Navy yards, mountains, or services. This ended the tradition. Its a sad thing that
things like this can't go on. Today if we did get together there would be no fiddles. Maybe square dances, no waltz quadrilles or
jigs.

VEDA E. LaROCHE HOMESTEAD; by John F. LaRoche:
'In the fall of 1909, my grandfather, realizing that the country was filled up around St.John's, North Dakota, decided to move to
Montana so that his twelve children would have a better chance to farm. Although some of his seven sons were not yet 21, he
knew that the older ones could homestead so they went to Madoc community in the present Daniels County. That fall they built a
house and did a little plowing, returning in the spring with the rest of the family. As this land was not yet surveyed they squatted
on 320 acres.
'Being only 18 years old at this time, my father was too young to homestead, so he worked at various jobs, mainly carpentry, but
in 1915 he worked for Kanning Brothers in their grain elevator, making enough money to move down to the reservation the next
spring to take up a homestead, consisting of 240 acres, just south of the present LaRoche homesite.
'When he moved in the spring, he was helped by his brother, Fred and a man who was later to become his brother-in-law, Joe
(Red) Morin. The previous winter he had built his homestead shack at Madoc, so they had that with them. For some reason,
perhaps on account of the snow, they could not find the right land, so they left the shack--with a note on the door--on some land
which later belonged to Chris Tange. Returning later, he moved it to his own site. The first spring he plowed 60 acres and
seeded it to flax--this work was done with horses and most of the next few years were spent on the rest. When the land north of
Township 31 was thrown open in 1918, he relinquished 40 acres and took up an additional 80, across the section line, giving him
a total of 280 acres. Later the homesite was continued batching here, keeping a few cows, pigs and chickens.
'On Valentine's Day, 1920 my parents were married in Scobey, Montana. My mother was Olivine R. Morin of Madoc. She also
had come to Montana in 1909 to live in Medicine Lake. At this time she was 13 years old and lived with her parents there until
Grandpa died in 1915 when her mother moved her family of 12 children to Madoc.
'I'm sure life was hard in my parents' first home, with no running water, no electricity, but they talked about it with a smile. Their
entertainment was card parties, dances at the local school house and quilting bees were held in various homes. Coal was the
fuel used mostly--it was mined locally at the Nielson, Smith or Borgrud mines which were all within a four mile radius of home
and most of the hauling was done by horses. Being lignite, my dad claimed you carried out a bucket of ashes for every bucket of
coal burned. To assist in keeping the house warm it was banked with manure. Sometime in the 20's Dad bought a granary and
moved it up connecting this to the shack thus giving them another room. This remained the total house until a bedroom was built
on in about 1936. A new house was planned in 1931 and the basement dug, but that year a twister ran through and ruined the
crops and virtually wiped everything out. The roof was torn off the kitchen while my mother was in the house with Ernie and I--
she took us to the cellar. Meanwhile, Dad was by the barn and he held onto a post until it was over.
'When the steel bridge over the Poplar Creek was erected. Dad helped haul this out. He was paid by the ton and he received
$9.00 which I'm sure was a large amount in 1921 or 1922. This bridge was washed out in the 1940's and replaced by a cement
slab.
'In 1922 my parents adopted a baby boy, naming him Earnest, born July 26. This was the family until I was born on February 2,
1931; Joseph was born April 7, 1934; James on July 26, 1935 and Robert on March 30, 1937. About this time things got pretty
crowded, so they bought a house from S. Knutson, moving it in in 1941, this being my home today.
'Dad rarely attended church, but this was more than made up for by my mother, even though bad roads made it hard to attend,
her thoughts were there anyway. At times the priests came out from Poplar, holding Mass in various homes in the area.
'In 1949 my parents bought a home in Poplar, making it easier for high school. We attended grade school at Grey or Mineral
Bench. Transportation varied through the years--from horses to bus and when that was discontinued, by car.
'The Farmer's Union played an active part in Dad's life and in later years he served on many boards. At one time he was a 4-H
leader in the community. I think the one thing he enjoyed most was calling the square dances at the local school house. These
later years were good with enough time to enjoy some traveling and some time just being idle.
'In 1951 the folks were to take some of their longest vactions through the midwest, south and down into Mexico. While visiting
the Leo Vandenbergs in Colorado, Dad suffered a stroke, passing away at Boulder, Colorado on February 13, 1951. Ma
continued living most of the time in Poplar as Jim and Bob were still in school, but spending summers on the farm. The church
was her biggest interest when the family was grown. She had 14 grandchildren when she passed away on March 27, 1962 (Ibid.).

Raye 24 Mar 1947. (written by Gus Girard) 'I was born in Cantal, Saskatchewan as was my sister, Lucy. I am the oldest of
the two boys and two girls born to Joseph Girard and Louise (Revet) Girard. My sister, Gabrielle, was born in Willow Bunch,
Saskatchewan and my brother, Aime, was born in Madoc. I was bornJanuary 19, 1902. My folks farmed near Alida,
Saskatchewan until 1911 and then they moved to Madoc. I came to Madoc in 1912. Lucy and I stayed behind that year with
relatives because the folks wanted us to stay in school. At the time we were going to the convent in Wauchope, Sask. When we did
get to Madoc the Lauzon school was opened and we went there. The neighbors I recall while growing up near Madoc were:
Lauzon, Paradis, LaRoche, Fjeld, Crone and Lapke. I know there were more but these are the ones I remember the most over the
years. I started farming in 1923. I batched in an old building I acquired rather oddly. I had money in the bank in Madoc, when
it went broke, and I went to talk to the banker to see if I could get anything for the money I lost. He told me I could have the old
building that was once the old Madoc post office that the bank now owned. So in the dead of night I went to town and pulled that
old building home. It was in the fall of 1924 and that's what I set up housekeeping in. I later turned it into a wheat bin and then
about ten years ago I donated it to the Museum here in Scobey and they turned it back into a post office. In 1927 I met a red
headed, brown-eyed gal named Mary (also called Marie) Morin. She was working in Medicine Lake at the cafe and hotel and
was visiting her mother who lived in Madoc. We were married in 1927 in Plentywood. We lived in Madoc behind the print shop.
We had 13 healthy children. Our first, Donald, was born in Madoc; our second, Ray (Pisto l) was the only one born at home. We
were living with my folks at the time and Mom had him with the help of Dr. Morrow. He was a very large and breech baby and
was a difficult birth for Mom. Our third, Howard, was born in Madoc; fourth Harold (Frenchy), was born in Flaxville; then the
fifth, Marlene; sixth Elaine; seventh, Robert; eighth, Shirley; ninth, Norman; tenth, Narma, were all born in Madoc. Then our
eleventh, Carol; twelfth, Jerry; and our last, Linda, were all born in the Scobey Clinic, which is now a hotel in Scobey. We
moved to Scobey in 1944. We bought a two story house on Daniels Street from Mike Skadron. We had it pretty full of kids for
quite a few years. Linda was the last to leave in 1965. It was pretty quiet after that. Neither Mom nor I complained though. We
not only had our own kids around but a lot of their friends were around as well. After the kids all left, we still had plenty of
grandkids around. Don, Pistol, Frenchy, Norma, Jerry, and Linda all made their homes in Scobey for awhile; and now Frenchy,
Norma and Linda are still living here, so we were never alone. I don't know how we managed to keep all of the kids fed, clothed,
and clean but somehow we did. Some of the neighbors that lived on our block that I can remember and visited back and forth
with over the years were: Schaefer's, Leibrand's, Drummond's, E. Helen Hanson, Conboy's, VonKuster's, Erickson's, Erickstein's,
Shrank's, Davis', and many more. Some of my good friends in Scobey that I bummed around with were: Axel Lawrence, Chris
Hanson, and, of course, my good friend, Art Shrank. I sure have missed Art since he died in 1969. I don't think Mom or I ever
got over the death of our daughter, Elaine, in 1957. It was a very tragic death, her leaving behind a baby daughter. There was
much pain and suffering during her illness and after her death. She and her baby daughter stayed with us during her illness. We
took her to several places hoping the doctors were wrong. She would get better, but it was all wasted. Although she was
terminally ill, her death was still a shock to us all. After her death, her husband, Ron, took our granddaughter, Cindy, back to
Texas to be raised by his family. Mom and I voted in Madoc from 1924 until they moved the voting place to Scobey. I have voted
in 15 presidential elections. Mom and I traveled a lot after the kids were older. We spent many winter months in Colorado and
Arizona. Now Howard is still in Denver, but Bob and Marlene are both in Arizona. We spent many months with all of them.
While we stayed with them we would take off for a few days sightseeing, which took us to many states plus we spent some time in
Florida one year and the surronding states. Mom and I both loved to travel and we did all we could. Mom died February 6,
1976. She was pretty ill for a long time. A few years before her death, she fell and broke her hip and after that she went
downhill. Then she fell and broke her pelvic bone in the fall of 1975 and she just never recovered. She was recuperating from
her fall at our daughter's and son-in-law's (Shirley and Duke) house in Billings when she passed away. The last few years before
Mom died we spent a lot of time in Billings with Shirley, then we would go on down south. We both liked Billings. I spent last
winter there with my son, Jerry. It's been pretty lonesome since Mom died and I miss her a lot. Since Mom's death I have been
helping Frenchy farm. Frenchy took over the farming about 20 years ago, but I just couldn't stay away from the place. I guess
that farm is in by blood, because I still go out whenever I can. It hasn't been that long ago that I quit running the machinery, but
I still help Frenchy move machinery and whatever else I can do. This is the first winter (1986) that I haven't gone south. My
health is failing and I just wanted to stay home and be close to my home and family who are here. Hopefully I'll get better and
enjoy some more traveling. I was 85 on January 29, 1987. My family had a big celebration for me with an open housebirthday
party for me. It was a very memorable day in my life. My life has been a full life with raising a family of thirteen children. I
also have 33 grandchildren and 30 great grandchildren. I have a few of my grandchildren and great grandchildren living here;
Kathie, Tony, Jackie, Jay, Neil, Chelsea, Brenda, Megan, Doug and Lee are still living at home. I still enjoy having the little ones
around.'

wife, Mary, a son John, who died in infancy, four brothers and seven sisters.' David Morin Eulogy by Robert McKinney:
'When I first decided to eulogize my grandfather, I thought to myself this should be no problem. There are so many things that I
can say about him and his life that the eulogy will write itself. But that was before I began to grasp just what this task entailed. I
began to contemplate just how I was going to cover the life of a man who had lived for nearly 88 years in only a few precious
minutes. And that was where I began to have difficulties. After floundering around trying to decide upon a theme I convinced
myself that I had undertaken something that was beyond my abilities. I then decided that I would back out and give someone else
the opportunity to take my place. But the more I tried to talk my self into ducking the responsibility, the more I realized that after
all the things he had done for me in the last 24 years, I owed him this at least. So once again, I decided to attempt to find the
words inside myself to do justice to this man. I thought to myself, my God, you've just graduated for college. You've got a degree
in political science, and everyone that knows you would say that you are long winded enough to speak at length about anyone or
anything. You must be able to find the words that would be appropriate for this day. So immediately I turned on the academic
portion of my brain, returned to true political science form and began to write as though this was a term paper for any number of
my upper division electives on political movements and revolutions. And soon, I was right back in the same spot as I was in
before.... limbo. Now I was really discouraged. How could I be able to compare and contrast the finer points of Capitalism and
Communism and not be able to compare even a singleparagraph about the man who has meant everything to me. But the more I
tried, the less I accomplished. It seemed the more I tried to use what he had paid thousands of dollars to send me to college to
gain, the more I would struggle.
'Then it hit me. The reason I couldn't write about him using obtuse scholarly rhetoric is because that is simply not him. Everyone
who knew him knows he was a simple, hardworking man with little time for double talk. And as I began to recall the relationship
I had with this man and the relationship I have observed with many others, the thoughts became much clearer.
'It wasn't until the death of my grandmother some years ago, that he and I actually became close. I had always loved and
respected him, but we had never fully understood each other before that. But after Grandma's death, we were forced together by
necessity. It was only then that I truly began to appreciate him for the man he was.
'As time went by and we spent more and more time together. I began to learn aboutmore of his life, and the stories he told were
marvelous. Telling stories was one thing he loved to do more than almost anything else. And he had quite a knack for it. On
those long drives we took going on vacation, people I had never met came alive in the stories he told. Men like Art
Charlesworth, N. K. Markeson, Eldean Grendahl, and Cliff Stromberg, all became old friends of mine through the stories he told.
He would tell me about working for Mr. Charlesworth and Mr. Markeson when he was very young. I would listen intently,
hanging on to every word as he told of his days working as a hand on the Charlesworth ranch. He told about days when the
open range still existed in some small sense right here at home. He would tell of the horse roundups in the Spring of the year
when he would ride his saddle horse from here to Poplar and never see a fence. And as I listened to him recall those days, I
would see a true longing in his eyes for those days to return. And as the miles would roll on so would other yarns of work and, of
course, play.
'It is widely known that Grandpa was no stranger to hard work, but it is just as widely known that he was no stranger to having a
good time either. And although he had many stories of carousing and such, two loves dominated his days... hunting and baseball.
He seemed at his most exalted when telling his stories of goose hunting and all the fun that he had during the Fall. His eyes
would light up at the thought of the times he had with Marvin Atar, Ed Mork, Delbert Nedsen, my Dad and the rest of the crew on
a million opening days. He would always tell me, 'Robert, you should see it when we're out in the field all covered up with Big
Ed calling them in. We would wait and wait and wait even though it sounded like they were right on top of us. And finally Big
Ed yelled: `Shoot!', and we all jumped up and shot. Boy, that was great fun.'
'His favorite story about hunting is the time when they got up to shoot, instead of shooting a big honker like everyone else,
Norman shota lone duck traveling with the flock of geese. From then on in, Grandpa always referred to Norman as Old Quack
Shot Jensen.
'Those were some of the best days of his life. I know it hurt him not to be able to keep going out. When there were time that his
stories weren't enough to allow us to really talk, there was always one thing that could. Baseball! If any of you have ever seen
the movie `City Slickers', you might remember the scene where the only lady on the cattle drive wonders why men are so
interested in baseball. One character replies that when he was growing up, it was the only thing that he and his father could talk
about. He was having a problem communicating with a man 25 years older than he was. He should have tried to communicate
with a man 65 years older than him. Our generation gap was more like a generation canyon. But through it all, baseball
remained a constant for the two of us. We would often watch a ball game together and he would tell me about when they used to
play around here, and about his team, `The Sandhill Cranes', and their big rivalry with Mineral Bench. Baseball was not only a
past-time to my grandfather, it was a religion. And one he followed devoutly. That was the Dave Morin I knew and loved. He was
always there to lend a hand and never had a bad word to say about anyone. He will be missed. And Grandpa, wherever you're
at, may goose season be open everyday, and may you always be able to say, `It's a beautiful day. Let's play two.'' David was a
successful wheat farmer in Medicine Lake. David and Mary lost their only son in infancy, but they were parents to a neice Kaye
Brien and a grandnephew Robert McKinney Tufton (Mary McClammy.).
Mary Rochelle Lattergrasswas born on 20 Mar 1907 at Belcourt, Rolette County, North Dakota (Ibid.). She died on 15 Nov

'David was born in Belcourt, ND on 6-3-05, to John B. and Mary E. Morin. He was 6th of 10 children. They were Joe A. 'Joe
Red', Olavine, Sarah, Marie, Moses, David, Isabel, Bob, Agnes, and Alice. When he was 2 years old, they moved to a h omestead
4-1/2 miles east of today's Medicine Lake. At that time, the town was Flandrem and was located at the present Dewey Hjort
farm. The homestead and farm are still owned and farmed by David. All the local people know the location by the granary that
he built in 1953. After he finished painting it a group of his friends painted the letters 'Wild Horse Inn' in 2-foot letters across the
front of the building. Strangers driving by would stop and ask Dave if that was a beer joint and many people stoppe d ot take
pictures of it.
'David attended school at Smith school which was located across the road from the Frank Snellman ranch. When he was 10
years old his dad died of exposure trying to come home in a blizzard when his team got away from him on 1-14-15. After that
David and his brother Moses went to Fort Totten, ND to attend school. They were there for 3 years. When he returned, he lived
with his brother, Joe Red, as his mother and the rest of the family had moved to Maddoc, MT.
'David worked wherever he could find a job with the local farmers. From 1923 until 1928 he worked for Art Charlesworth.
When he wasn't working for farmers he would be down by the Bill Walker place working in the coal mine.
'In 1927 he went of Minnomen, MN and worked as a lumberjack for 4 months. On his way there he stopped in Belcourt to visit
some friends and relatives; and while there he met a young lady named Mary R. Lattergrass. He returned to Medicine Lake and
worked again for Art Charlesworth until 1928 when he returned to Belcourt where he and Mary were married on 10-29-28. He
took his bride to Medicine Lake where he worked for Frank French and they lived right on the French farm. In 1933 they were
living in town working for N. K. Markeson and in March of that year they had a son, John Emmanuel, who died 3 days after
birth.
'In 1933, he also worked for the road crew building the road between Froid and Reserve; and Flaxville and Scobey. The
company was W. S. Gobel Const., and he was the crusher boss. The roads were built with horses and mules pulling dump
wagons. They had a few old trucks for hauling gravel.
'In the spring of 1934, they started building the Fort Peck dam and Dave and Mary joined the thousands of people going to Fort
Peck looking for a job. He worked there for 7 years.
'In 1940, Dave and Mary moved to Portland, OR, where he worked as a mechanics helper for 5 months building an airport. That
fall he went to work in the shipyard as a welder, then later as an inspector, then foreman. He worked in that yard until 1944
when they adopted their grandneice, Kaye Brien, who was 15 months old.
'They moved back to Medicine Lake in 1947 and they farmed for themselves and David worked for the REA. Mary remembers
when he was working. Then he would work from 8:00 until 4:00 for the REA and then he would farm his own land until 1:00
a.m. He helped bring electricity to the farmers in the Dooley, Comertown, Fortuna and many other areas. When they moved
back to Medicine Lake, they bought an old CCC camp building andset it on the location where they now live. They did all the
renovating of the building themselves. Dave would ask Mary where she wanted her living room wall and she would walk to a spot
and that is where the wall went. He would have to dirve to Culbertson, Plentywood, Froid and Crosby, ND to get lumber and
supplies. One day he drove clear to Crosby just to get 4-2x4's. There was plenty of lumber to be had, but only the veterans could
get it.
'David and Mary have resided in Medicine Lake ever since. During the winters of 1959 through 1972, he worked in the sugar
beet factory in Billings. In 1975 they built a new home, which is their pride and joy. They both enjoy taking people around and
giving them the 'Grande Tour'. At the time of this writing, David is the citizen of Medicine Lake who has lived here the longest.
'They have 5 grandchildren--Rachelle Ann Schulenberg, David William Schulenberg, Robert John McKinney (who has lived with
them all his life), Gene Andrew Tufton, and Colleen Kaye (KoKo) Tufton.' From Death Card:

1931 - 2007
SCOBEY - John was born Feb. 2, 1931, to Veda and Olivine LaRoche in Madoc, Mont. John grew up on the family farm at the
Mineral Bench community north of Poplar. Here he attended Grey grade school and later graduated from Poplar High School.
After graduation, he pursued an electrician degree from Coyne Electrical School in Chicago. Shortly after graduation, he was
drafted into the United States Army and served two years in the Korean War in the First Cavalry; Fifth Regiment.
After an honorable discharge from the Army, he returned to Poplar to work as an electrician. Shortly thereafter, his father passed
away and John took over the family farm. He retired in 2004 and was proud of his 51 years of farming.
John was an avid hobbyist, well-known around the area for his skills as a blacksmith. Many people were the recipients of a
miniature horseshoe or bell, which he happily made for them. He also restored and built different types of wagons. Painting was
another hobby of John's and his exceptional work did not go unnoticed. After retirement, John looked forward to art class and
daily coffee visits with his many friends.
John was proud of his Chippewa Native American heritage and was devoted to his family history and genealogy. He was a Metis
and traveled to many events that honored his heritage. He enjoyed hunting, fishing and writing family stories. He was also a
devoted Boy Scout leader with his success evidenced by having several scouts under his leadership receive the prestigious Eagle
Scout rank.
John's ability and enthusiasm to tell stories captivated the minds and hearts of many. He was a great man with a good heart and
will be truly missed.
Survivors include: wife, Val, of Scobey; daughter, Marion (Arnold) Blomquist of Scobey; son, Ian (Gina) LaRoche of Billings;
granddaughters, Sydney and Teagan LaRoche.
John was preceded in death by his parents and four brothers, Ernie, James, Joseph and Robert.
Cremation has taken place and a prayer service will be held at 2 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 10, at St. Philip Bonitus Catholic Church,
Scobey. Waller Funeral Home of Scobey is in charge of arrangements.
At his request, his cremated remains will be interned at his favorite spot on the family farm this spring (Mary McClammy, 7 Jan
2007.).

evening.' 'Veda LaRoche motored to Madoc Sunday. 'John Ferdinand is doing nicely, also Mrs. Veda LaRoche' (Poplar
Standard, 12 Feb 1931.). On 7 Nov 1935 at Poplar, Montana, Mineral Bench: Little John LaRoche is spending a few days at the
Thore Mickelson home in Poplar(Ibid., 7 Nov 1935.). SCHOOL DAYS 1937-1939; by John F. LaRoche
I'm sure that there has never been a 6 year old, at least a farm boy, who wanted to give up his freedom and start school. I was no
exception. The year 1937 was exceptional, in fact it was (they tell me) the peak of the dust bowl. No crops period
School was a strange thing. There was an occasional late afternoon spent visiting there, sitting in a desk, or maybe driving by
with my folks when the kids were at recess. It was enough to make you wonder. This looked like fun. 'I'm not speaking of a town
school. I'm talking about a one room country school with a teacherage (the place the teacher lived). The school's name was
'GREY'. It was located three miles north of our farm in the Poplar School District. This first year, it had an enrollment of
fourteen kids in eight grades. Miss Richwine was the teacher. Our curriculum was no different than the town school. I'm sure
the students at Grey went on equal to any other. But fourteen kids would be a trial anywhere. Some of these were very active
(Hyper these days). Miss Richwine earned her pay.
Before we go any further, I've got to bring up one more thing: 'Transportation!' Some walked, some came by car, LaRoche's
came by horseback. Ernie was on Baldy; me on Dolly. I can assure you, we didn't spend anymore time on the road than we had
to. Ernie (being in the eighth grade) had the experience and drive to keep a horse at top speed. Baldy came from a long line of
work horses, these being part mustang. Although Baldy was no race horse, his speed was pretty fair. My horse, Dolly, was a
solid black Shetland pony that probably weighed 200 pounds. With it's choppy gait, it could keep up. Country schools in these
days had barns. Teacher and parents did draw the line. There was no riding around during school hours.
Fall with its nice weather was one thing. Colder? Oh, boy, lots of this! Then Dad would bring us to school in the car. Later on,
when the snow got deep, there was horse and sled. This was fun. If things were right, we got to ride in back on our coaster sled
or on skis. Our skis, being the toy type, did not led themselves to much playing around. It wasn't always a drudgery to go to a
country school.
During my first grade, I had Ernie to help, but in second grade I was alone. I was possibly the smallest male to ever attend
school at Grey. If I remember, I was about forty pounds in first grade and very short. I think I was the last person to ride to
school, at least in our area. There was a family who came by buggy. Milo Fossen, being in the third grade, was the driver. The
old horse was very faithful. I think Milo stood on an apple box to harness. We were a select twosome, at least for awhile. Their
dad drove them, when it was cold or snowy.
Getting back to horseback. Dolly was a full blooded Shetland and was probably the stubbornest four-legged animal that I've
had contact with. With Ernie around, it was different. (Incidently my folks bought this horse from 'Joe Red' Morin.) You could
always catch Dolly with a handful of grain. It didn't mind being saddled, and me getting on, and leaving the yard. Then things
got interesting. Dolly might turn around and run back, it might lay down, and (actually on most days) it would trot off to school.
Coming home, I'm sure it would think of ground feed and went full speed ahead.
Grey School in the fall of 1938 was somewhat different: eight students (6 boys and 2 girls). This ratio seemed to follow me
around for quite awhile. We also had a first year teacher, Miss Mary Jane Darland. Thinking back, Miss Darland did a good
job.
A part of life, in that age, was getting the mail. Our mail box was at the school. Mail day was Tuesday and Saturday. To kind of
keep things in order, my mother made a bag out of a piece of canvas. It had a drawstri ng of leather that would fit over my
shoulder. There was room for my books, lunch and the mail.
School lunch consisted of a sandwich and maybe cookies. In the winter the teacher might make Ovalteen furnished by the
parents. We might bake a potato in the coals of the heating stove.
I guess this could have continued, but in our community it ended with the consolidation of three rural schools. Then we had a
bus pick us up at the door and deliver us home in the evening. This was the end of an era. Graduated from Poplar H.S;
graduated from Coyne Electrical School. Veteran U.S. Army: radio operator. Veteran Korean War: stationed Japan. Occupation:
farmer (John Laroche.).

TOOTSIE'; by Patricia Mae Shafer; written 1984
'One day my daddy was out in the field working when he heard this funny noise. He turned around just in time to see this funny
little thing come flying out of a gopher hole. Well, he watched a while and then he put this little creature back in the hole and
'WHAMO' it came right back out. Crying, all it did was cry. So my dad took this weird little thing home cause he didn't know
what else to do with it and afterall the gopher sure didn't want it. Well he put it with the old dog and it didn't want it, he tried the
cow, NO LUCK there. So he and mom decided what the hell we'll keep it for a while and see what happens and maybe then
figure out what it was. You see it was so white and crying all the time, well they told everyone after a while, 'This is our new
daughter'. They never told anyone that she really wasn't born to them or that they thought it was hatched. They had been calling
her 'TOOTSIE' because it cried so much, but later decided on 'ALICE'. I came along 3 years later born to my mother and dad
with a certificate and all and not so white. Well, I grew up with this girl an she was my sister. She has been my sister for the 47
years of my life, but man she is now 50, a big '50'. I know someday, somewhere, someone will say 'SMILE', Alice Marie Shafer
Pierce Tootsie' cause you were born to the J.C. SHAFER family for real. You were not hatched nor found in the field, but you
were created in the field in a very loving romantic moment. Maybe when she's 75 years old she'll finally get a real birth
certificate. I LOVE YOU MY REAL SISTER ALICE. I know you are my real sister, except one thing makes me wonder at
times....SIS, your toes are like 'GOPHER TOES'!!!
Love Your Sister For Real.

Al and I were married in 1966 and have been here ever since. We are living on Al's folks' homestead five miles from Scobey, on
French Lane. We have two kids, Elaine and Lee. Elaine graduated from Scobey High in 1984, then went on to Concordia
College in Moorhead for a year, then to National College in Rapid City. She is graduating from there this February, 1987. She
has been to France twice, once to live with a host family during high school and last summer to attend summer college through
National College. Lee worked for a combining crew all summer last summer and received a real education there and is working
for us now, and hopefully some day we can turn the farming and ranching over to him. I think the one thing I remember most
about growing up in such a large family was what it would be like being an only child. Not because of lack of love, however. It
seemed like there was always aunts, uncles, cousins, sisters, brothers, nieces, and nephews around, no matter what time of the
day or year. At the time I thought I was the only one to give up her bed, be shoved around, but as I grew up I could see it
happened to us all. Now I wouldn't change a thing because there are a lot of happy memories I can look back on. Some of the
other things I remember is always having home made bread after school waiting for us, washing clothes in the Maytag wringer
washing machine, visiting relatives in Poplar and Medicine Lake, taking a quarter to the Rex Theatre and getting in plus having
pop and popcorn, running food and desserts to the widow neighbors because Mom was just sure they weren't getting enough to
eat, visiting with neighbors like Schaefer's, Leibrand's, Von Kuster's, Shrank's, Davis', Hanson's, Erickstein's, Erickson's and
many many more. One person I will never forget that was around a lot was Art Shrank. He was quite a guy and always spoiling
and teasing us kids. Some of the most tragic losses over the years were our sister Elaine, my father-in-law, Adrian, Art Shrank
and, of course, Mom. It doesn't seem like it's been ten years since Mom's been gone. We all miss her something terrible. Dad
just turned 85 and we had a big party for him. It was a lot of fun for all of us. Dad has been pretty healthy up until this last
winter and he has decided to spend the winter months at home. It has really been enjoyable having him here. We really missed
both Mom and Dad whenever they left for the winter. The one bad thing that I can think of growing up in such a large family was
not getting to know my older brothers and sisters. A lot of them were gone by the time I grew up. But in the last few years some
of them have been coming home in the summer, so we have been able to visit and get closer. I have enjoyed getting to know my
nieces and nephews, as well. I think as we get older we begin to realize just how important family is. Mom often told me that he
hated having the kids so spread out, and not being able to see them. I know now what she meant. At the time when I was home it
was kind of nice having my own bed, so I was happy then when nobody bothered to come home, but now I sure miss everyone
and can hardly wait to see them when they say they are coming to visit. Well, I could go on and on with stories, even some that
probably should never be repeated!! But I don't think this book could take it all. So I'll just say what I've already said and leave
it at that and I am looking forward to seeing everyone this summer at the reunion.' 2. RECENT BRIDE. Linda Ray Girard,

13 Mar 2007 at El Paso, Texas, at age 78 (Ibid.). Obituary circa 15 Mar 2007 at Medicine Lake, Montana: (November 11, 1928 -
March 13, 2007)
Francis J. "Flip" Morin, 78, passed away peacefully in his sleep in El Paso, Texas on Tuesday, March 13, 2007 with his family
at his side. He was a resident of El Paso for 40 years. Born on November 11, 1928 in Medicine Lake, Montana of American
Indian heritage, he served in the U.S. Army and was stationed in numerous bases including two tours-of-duty in Korea. As a
young G.I., at the post swimming pool, he impressed his Captain with diving and flips from the high board, and the nickname
"Flip" stuck. During his military career he developed a talent for news correspondence and journalism. One of his first media
assignments was with the Armed Services Far East Radio and Television Network in Japan, and later covered the Army Modern
Pentathlon team at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. After 22 years, he completed his military service in 1968 at Ft. Bliss, Texas. As a
civilian in El Paso, he worked as a journalist for ten years at the El Paso Times as golf editor and extensively covered UTEP
Track and Field. His friendly demeanor and amiable interviewing style was a personable quality that allowed him to make
lifetime friendships --- some with notable personalities such as Lee Trevino, Don Haskins, Jamie Farr, and Pat Hagerty. He later
worked for the Department of Defense in civil service as an editor, finally leaving the workforce. In retirement, Flip remained
actively involved with media functions such as the Terry Bradshaw/Jim McMahon Cancer treatment golf tournaments, the Sun
Bowl and El Paso Golf Hall of Fame. He was an usher at Most Holy Trinity Catholic church, and extensively volunteered his
time with the Red Cross at William Beaumont Army hospital. In 2003 he received the American Red Cross Volunteer-of-the-Year
Award. He continued writing on local and regional sports and also on subjects of interest involving his Native American
heritage. He was an accomplished bowler, golfer, and photographer and was published numerous times as a free-lance writer.
Flip's passion for working with people was testimony of his Catholic Christian faith as he lived his life as our Lord did. His
charitable works of love for family, friends, and everyone was a true reflection of kindness and compassion. His loving wife of 53
years, Marie, was the foundation and strength of their endearing lives together. She survives his memory along with their three
children and their families: Francine Greeson and Jamie Morin of Virginia and Philip Morin of California. He has five
grandchildren: Andrew, Adrienne, Patrick, McKenna, and Brennan. Visitation will be held on Sunday, March 18, 2007 at El
Paso's Sunset Funeral Homes-Northeast, 4631 Hondo Pass from 5 to 9 p.m. with a Rosary to begin at 7 p.m. Funeral Mass will

in Scobey, after my dad started driving his own truck and my mom, Lola, ran the Steak House Cafe. I graduated from beauty
school in Billings and worked at that. My husband, Don, is a bus mechanic for the Dickinson School District. I work for the
Prairie Public Broadcasting in Dickinson. They are financially responsible for keeping Sesame Street on the air. My husband is
in the process of adopting my first three children. My youngest, Sara, is ours. I have been married three times. I guess my first
two marriages were wrong and a mistake because I am very happy now and Don is a very nice, understanding man who loves
and cares for all of us. All of the kids are going by the name of Dorner because they love Don in return and can hardly wait until
the adoptions are all official and final. As far as traveling, I have lived in a lot of different states. My dad is remarried now and
I have a little sister, Jana. She sure is a lot of fun and my kids can't understand why they have an aunt who is littler and younger
than they are. Don's hobby is raising homing pigeons. My kids are all involved in this and it is an interesting hobby and keeps
everyone busy. I remember when I used to go in the truck with Dad. It used to be a lot of fun to ride in that big truck and honk
that loud horn. I remember by Grandpa and Grandma Girard used to take me out to their farm in Madoc a lot. I really enjoyed
being with them. When I go back to Scobey to visit, I don't know half of the people who say 'Hi'. Everyone has changed a lot. I
don't really have much more to say, but that I am very happy now and hope everyone else in the family is too.'
