    LIZZIE M. COCHRANE, daughter of John C. and Sylvia Cochrane, was born at

Oshaloosa, Kan., January 13th, A. D. 1860. In early childhood, her parents

returned to DesMoines, Iowa, where she enjoyed the advantages of their most

excellent schools. In March, 1883, she came to Faulk county and filed on public

land which was subsequently proved up on in accordance with the public land law.



    On November 5, 1884, she was appointed clerk of courts for Faulk county by

Judge Severance Smith of the Fifth Judicial District of the Territory of Dakota,

which office she filled with satisfaction to all who had business with that

office and with credit to herself. Upon her marriage to Mr. Johnston, her

resignation was immediately forwarded to Judge Church, and after several months

her resignation was accepted and a young man from California was appointed.
