SAMUEL WARNER AND ARTIMAS P. WARNER
	An account of the pioneers and prominent men of our county would be 
quite incomplete were we to omit the names of the worthy stockmen that appear 
above, whose careers have been marked by energy and enterprise, and who stand 
among the leaders in their line of business. 
	The sons of Nathan B. and Sarah G. Warner, their native place was 
Sutherland Falls, now Proctor, Vermont, where Samuel was born April 3, 1853 
and Artimas, March 17, 1848.  There they received their education in the 
public schools and grew to manhood, engaging in carpenter-    ing and farming 
until the day of their advent into this state.  Samuel arrived here in the 
fall of 1884, and his brother a year later.  They selected their present 
places of thirteen hundred acres each, where they have since been occupied in 
wool growing.  They each have two thousand five hundred head of the Merino 
grades, from which they clip annually nine and one-half pounds per head.  Each 
year they sell fifteen hundred head for the mutton market.
	At Brandon, Vermont, Miss Ida C. Briggs and Samuel Warner were 
married.  To them have been born the following children: Lizzie M., Albert W., 
Sadie, Cora, Herbert and Margie.  Mr. Warner’s family joined him six months 
after he came to this section.  He and his family are members of the 
Congregational church and take an active interest in its affairs.  His father 
and mother were natives of Vermont, being born in 1812 and 1815, respectively, 
while his grand- father, Samuel Warner, was born in Chicopee, Massachusetts, 
in 1785, and his great-grandfather, Eleazer Warner, was born in Massachusetts 
on September 13, 1755.  Our subject is a gentleman of integrity, who merits 
the high esteem in which he is held by all of his fellows and acquain-tances, 
being possessed of an intrinsic wisdom and worth that commend him as one far 
above the average.
