Mrs. Alex Gault, one of the pioneer residents of this city, gives an interesting account of little Emma Wixom, now known throughout the world as the renowned prima donna, . Emma Nevada. It was inthe early part of 1864 that the late lamented Senator Sargent delivered a lecture at the Baptist church one evening for the benefit of the Sanitary Commission. His subject was slavery and the price of admission wasa dollar. It was a swell camp being gathered there. Preceding the lecture “The StarsSpangled Banner” was sung, “Emma ' maintaining the solo part and being sunstained by a full chorus led by Miss Anna Brown (later the wife-of Captain Connor) who soon after this went to Milan, studied vocal music for—a year and won some renown as an amateur. Emma, who was big and stout for her age, astonished all who! heard her that night because of the sweetness and flexibility of her voice. It was agreed that she was a marvelous singer for so young a child, and great things were predicted for ber; but-the stories about her audience consisting of redshirted miners who showered money upon the stage are without foundation. It wasa most fashionable and decorous audience, and nothing sensational occurred, Emma and her parents, who came here from Alpha in the upper part of the county where she was born iu 1858, lived in this city only about six months. The mother gave instructions to some of the county seat,ladies in the art of making hair flowers, and Mrs: J . 8: Gregory, still-a resident of the city, was one of her. pupils and has yet in her possession some specimens of the work done underMrs. Wixom’s direction. Dr. Wixom was very poor and the family hada hard time eking out a comfortable existence here.
