Notes
a. Note:   OWNS VIOLIN 200 YEARS OLD February 2, 1921 Illinois
 Pioneer Residents of Frederick Danced to the Music of This Old Fiddle.
  Ernest E. Bowman of Industry has a violin, which he claims is 200 years old, and its history is narrated as follows by the editor of the Industry Press, and old time Schuylerites may be able to corroborate the story of its ownership in Schuyler 60 years ago.
  That it is of great age and has had much use is plainly apparent. The ebony finger board has been worn thru by the fingers of several generations of players. The portion of the instrument held by the players' chin has been worn so thin that paper has been pasted on it to keep it from wearing thru. The present owner has applied a regular chin rest to protect the remaining wood. While we are not versed in the art of violin manufacture certain differences in the construction of the instrument as compared with modern violins, are noticeable. The neck is thicker, the vertical strip of wood around the outside of the soundbox is divided differently and the top of the box is considerably higher under the "E" string than on the other side.
  The most interesting thing about the instrument as well as the circumstance which gives most weight to the claim of age is the inscription in the bottom of the box or sound chamber which reads as follows: "Antonious Stradivarius Ceremonenfis Faciebat Anno 1721."
  The personal knowledge of the instrument by people now living reaches back over a period of sixty years or more. Mrs. Sarah Teel (Sarah M. Thornton, dau. of Alburn & Nancy), grandmother of Mrs. Bowman and now living at Vermont, danced to the music of this instrument on Frederick landing when she was a girl. The history as far back as it can be traced is as follows:
  The violin originally belonged to Milton Thornton, a member of the Jesse James gang, which terrorized the middle west. It came into the hands of a man named Spillers who lived in the vicinity of Beardstown. James Teel, now deceased, secured it from him, and Mrs. James Teel gave it to her daughter's husband, the present owner, recently. He is repairing it and in due season the mellow tones of this old violin will recall the memories of long ago.
