"Before Today" A History of Holt County
Nebraska Centennial Edition Published 1976 by Holt
County Historical Society excerpts from book that
include the FARNER Family while living in Stuart,
Holt County, NE.
page273 Among the very early settlers in the Stuart
area was JOHN X. FARNER his wife and five children,
who came from Switzerland in 1877 to a tree claim
three miles southeast of town. Three more children
were born in the new home, but of the eight only the
three oldest, SOPHET, BEN and AGGIE (COWLES) spent
their lives in Holt County.
For a number of year BEN was in partnership with
Harry Shank in the ownership of the town’s
largest general mechandise store. Later BEN became
sole owner. SOPHET spent the years between 1905 and
1916 as general merchant and postmaster at the inland
village of Dustin, twenty miles to the north, then
returned to Stuart because of better schools for his
children. From then on he was in the store with his
brother, BEN.
Page 281 After finishing the seventh grade in Stuart,
Glenn went through the eighth grade at the Clay Creek
school, up nearer the Niobrara. Here his classmates
were the Bouchers, McCoys, Lofquests and others. The
Berrys, Allyns, Frosts, Demings, Becks, FARNERS,
Brodies, Robertsons and Sweets were their neighbors.
A realtor in Atkinson, Hugh Allen upt togther the big
Payne-Sargisson ranch in that area.
Dustin was the local post office and general store.
SOPHET FARNER was one of the storekeepers for many
years. SOPHET always bought a stalk of bananas every
Monday. On Saturday afternoons the young bucks of the
area came to town, bought the remains of the stalk
and held banana eating contests. The banana eating
boys were Glenn, Dave and Jim Deming, Elmer Hewett, a
Rumsey or two, Cosner, Richardson, mcWhirter and Eby.
Page 282 Freight wagons from Stuart, hauling supplies
to SOPHET FARNER’S store in Dustin, regularly
passed the Bogue place, and Gypsies came now and
then, helping themselves to garden truck, chickens
and eggs. Page 448 PETER BONENBERGER, the eldest of
nine children born to Nicholas Bonenberger in
Luxemburg, came to Holt County and married ROSE
FARNER at O’Neill. PETE operated a butcher shop
in Atkinson and lived a mile south of town. Bernard,
or Barney, born in 1867, was PETE’S younger
brother. He came to New York and walked from there to
Nebraska, just behind the blizzard of ’88,
walking on drifts that covered fences.

RE: The Farner family was living in Stuart, Nebraska
when this terrible blizzard hit the state in 1888. My
grandmother, Mary Farner Holcombe, spent the night in
the school house with her brother Sophet that
terrifying night. Mary writes about this night in her
life story. I also have a transcribed letter written
to my grandmother from her brother Sophet in which he
also reminds her about the Blizzard of 1888. The
story below is told by a survior of the blizzard. It
gives the reader some idea of what the children,
teachers and families went through in those 24 hours.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
O.W. Meier Relates Experience He Had in the Blizzard
of 1888.
"The awful blizzard of Jan 12, 1888," said
O. W. Meier, cannot be forgotten by anyone who
experienced it as I did." He and his brothers
were attending school in District 71, 15 miles
[wouthwest?] of Lincoln, and this is his story of
that blizzard which swept over the country 50 years
ago.
"The weather had been mild, after a heavy fall
of snow. Deep snow lay over all the ground in fields
and on the roads. Long hanging icecicles dripped
melting snow water from the eaves of the house and
barn. The sky was dark and heavy. Beautiful big white
flakes were falling fast that morning of the fateful
day. Father and mother said, "The girls must
stay at home, but the boys may go to school."
"At half past eight Walter, then 8, Henry 12,
and I, 15 years of age, started out thru the deep
white snow. Pretty starry flakes made us look like
snow men before we reached the school, a mile and a
half from home. When we got there we found other
boys, and some girls, playing "fox and
geese". Henry and I jointed in the game.
"The bell rang, calling us in to study and
recite. The heavy snow kept falling all that day. By
the middle of the afternoon, at the last recess, the
snow was about two feet deep, and on the top it was
almost as light as feathers. At a quarter to three,
the school bell rang for the last time that day. We
rushed for the brooms to sweep the wet snow from our
boots. Just when we got settled down to our books as
swiftly as lightning, the storm struck the north side
of the house. The whole building shivered and quaked.
With deafening whack the shutters were slammed shut
by the terrific wind. In an instant the room became
black as night, then for a moment there came a ray of
light, I stood and said, "May my brothers and I
go home?" The teacher said. "Those boys who
live south may put on their coats and go, but the
rest of you must stay here in this house."
"The two Strelow boys, Robert and George, with
John Conrad, my two brothers, and I, put out into the
storm for our homes. We had not gone a rod when we
found ourselves in a heap, in a heavy drift of snow.
We took hold of each others' hands, pulled ourselves
out, got into the road, and the cold north wind blew
us down the road a half mile south, where the Strelow
boys and John Conrad had to go west a mile or more.
When they reached a bridge in a ravine, the little
fellows sheltered a while under the bridge, a wooden
culvert, but Robert, the oldest, insisted that they
push on thru the blinding storm for their homes. In
the darkness they stumbled in, and by degrees their
parents thawed them out, bathed their frozen hands,
noses, ears and cheeks, while the boys cried in pain.
"My brothers and I could not walk thru the deep
snow in the road, so we took down the rows of corn
stalks to keep from losing ourselves "till we
reached our pasture fence. Walter was too short to
wade the deep snow in the field, so Henry and I
dragged him over the top. For nearly a mile we
followed the fence "till we reached the corral
and pens. In the howling storm, we could hear the
pigs squeal as they were freezing in the mud and
snow. Sister Ida had opened the gate and let the cows
in from the field to the sheds, just as the cold wind
struck and froze her skirts stiff around her like
hoops. The barn and stables were drifted over when we
reached there. The roaring wind and stiffling snow
blinded us so that we had to feel thru the yard to
the door of our house.
"The lamp was lighted. Mother was walking the
floor, wringing her hands and calling for her boys.
Pa was shaking the ice and snow from his coat and
boots. He had gone out to meet us but was forced back
by the storm. We stayed in the house all that night.
It was so cold that many people froze to death in the
snow, and the loss in livestock was big. The next
morning we walked out upon the hard deep drifts
shoveled a way thru to the barn where we gound our
cows and horses alive on top of the snow that had
drifted into their stalls, but a lot of our hogs were
frozen stiff in mud, ice and snow. The road we came
over on our way home was strewn with frozen quails
rabbits,dead.
"That was an awful night on the open plains.
Many teachers and school children lost their lives in
that blinding storm, while trying to find their way
home. The blizzard of 1888 has not been
forgotten."
