"KNEW FAMOUS JOHN BROWN OF KANSAS"
Mrs. Barricklow, who died Saturday,
Pioneer in that Territory
---------------------------------------------
SHE BAKED BREAD FOR ABOLITIONIST
---------------------------------------------------
Courageous Woman of Old Border Country Defies Raiders
---------------------------------------------------------

Memories of the border ruffian days when Kansas was a territory and John Brown was its principal character, were recalled when Mrs. Mary Ann Barricklow, mother of Charles W. Hetherington of 136 Stanton Street, died on Saturday, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Emma Reynolds, in Los Angeles.
Mrs Barricklow came to Pasadena with her daughter, Mrs. Reynolds, in 1910, and lived here until a few months ago, when she moved to Los Angeles. She was a faithful member of the Lincoln Avenue Methodist Church, having been a devout Methodist since eary girlhood. Her long life was full of interesting events, especially so because she witnessed one of the most thrilling chapters in American History.
Funeral services are to be held at 2 o'clock Friday afternoon at the chapel of C.F. Lamb & Sons, 41 Garfield Avenue. Burial will be in Mountain View.
A Kansas Pioneer
Mrs Barricklow, whose maiden name was Mary Ann Bennett, was born in Columbianna County, Ohio, in 1833. When she was a child she was married to William Barricklow at Hartford, Indiana. In 1855 Mr. and Mrs. Barricklow joined the brave pioneers of those days who went to Kansas and there met and conquered many obstacles which would have discouraged a less determined or sturdy race.
Those were the days of the border ruffians, the men who invaded Kansas across the Missouri line and struck terror into the hearts of the men and women who were trying to establish homes in the new country. Mrs. Barricklow passed through many interesting and not a few very exciting experiencs in those pioneer days in Kansas. The Quantrell and Pierce raiders were among those which made history in the territory in those days, and Mrs. Barricklow had vivid recollections of her experiences.
Knew John Brown
John Brown was a frequent visitor in the Barricklow home and on many occasions he would bring flour so that Mrs. Barricklow could make for him some of her famous "salt-rising bread." She never forgot this tragic figure in American History, this tall, gaunt man who was later to play an unforgetable role in the abolition movement.
Illustrative of the courage which the pioneers of those days were called upon to display is the following incident which Mrs. Barricklow frequently told.
On one occasion when the Barricklow home was being raided and after the intruders had ransacked the place, hey came to Mrs. Barricklow, then a young mother, who was sitting upon her trunk. She had with her her baby boy and her little girl (now Mrs. Hetherington of this city) was clinging to her knees. The raideers demanded that they be allowed to "go through" the trunk, but Mrs. Barricklow courageously defied them. In spite of the fact that she was threatened at the point of a gun, she refused to let the bandits touch the valuable possessions which were contained in the trunk. Her bold attitude completely surprised the raiders and thee departed, leaving her the victor.
California Pioneer, Too
In 1875, Mr. and Mrs. Barricklow and their children moved to Santa Rosa, California, where they lived for five years, after which they returned to Kansas. In 1910. Mrs. Barricklow, following the deatht of her husband, came to Pasadena with her daughter.
Mrs. Barricklow was the mother of seven children, only three of whom survive her. Besides her two daughters she leaves one son, now is Arkansas. (Possibly our grandfather Charles...Ted) She will be mourned by a host of friends who were attracted to her by her Christian character and her devotion to all those whom she loved.
In the 1870 census for Douglas County, p 440, Palmyra Twp, Kansas:
Mary, age 36 keeping house. Born Ohio. Anne, age 17 (married Charles M. Hetherington, born Indiana.) David, age 15, farm laborer, born Indiana. Emma age 9 (married Reynolds, born Kansas. Daniel, age 6, born Kansas. Charles.
