Annals of Emporia and Lyon County . esented his district twice in thelegislature; has always been regarded asone of the best men in the worthy object has always found inMr. Hunter a steadfast friend. James G. Traylor, who is now a resi-dent of Indiana, came to Lyon county in1S71. He was a farmer, then a grocery-man, and served the county faithfully asclerk of the district court for ten has a daughter. Miss Alice Traylor,who is a teacher in our city schools; alsoa son living here. We may expect himself to return to Kansas. p. B. Maxson settled on a farm eight orten miles north of Emporia in 185S. Hehas been several times a member of thehouse of representatives and state sena-tor from Lyon county, as our list pub-lished elsewhere will show. Under thefirst Populist administration he served aterm as railroad commissioner. His lifehere has been active and useful. Among his neighbors he has always stood is now filling a vacancy in the probatejudges office bv appointment of J, L DAUGHERTY. James L. Daugherty came to Emporiain March, 1870, from Indiana, where heserved in the army as a member of theforty-seventh Indiana regiment. He hasbeen an active participant in local affairshere, and while his business now takeshim to different parts of the country,this is his home and here his family re-sides. I le was deputy sheriff under Sher-iffs Conner, Bay and Lowe. After thishe served twelve years as mail agent onthe Santa Fe. Leaving this service, hewas for three years freight and passengeragent at Des Moines, Iowa. He then be-came local agent of the M., K. 6i T. inthis city for nearly three years, and isnow immigration agent of the NorthernPacific railroad. Mr. Daugherty is whatis called a hustler, and as such has en-gendered some enmities, but we neverheard his honor or integrity questioned. 48 ANNALS OF EMPORIA AND LYON COUNTY. spirit of patriotism and loyalty tothe government continued until thecounty was almost depopulat
