    EMANUEL GOLDEN was born on the 7th day of August, 1827, near Gettysburg,

Pennsylvania, and from that place was drafted into the Union Army in November,

1862, where he served a full nine months, leaving a wife and six children behind

him.



    In 1864 he moved to the town of London in the state of Iowa and in the

spring of 1883 he removed to Faulk county and took a homestead where he now

lives. In 1896 he left this state and moved to Missouri and remained three and

one-half years. Then returned to his old home in this county. Mr. Golden

remembers distinctly of going to see the men lay the rails for the Baltimore &

Philadelphia railroad in 1836.



    He has seen much of pioneer life and now at the age of eighty-one years is

apparently good for several years to come.
