The occasion of the celebration will be Mr. Morrill's eighty fifth birthday and a large number of his friends and relatives are expected to assemble at "the Forks" to do Justice to the birthday dinner which Is always forthcoming at such celebrations. "Uncle Ike" was the name given to Mr. Morrill by the novXIst who firsts found rftmna ln the Uvea of the hill people and whose eyes dis cerned the beauty cf the pine clAd hills, created with a halo of blue mist rising from the valleys.

From the day the novel was published down to the present time, Mr. Morrill has been known to natives and tourists alike as "Uncle Ike" and It Is with no slight degree of pride that "Uncle IJce" admits that he Is a character mentioned In "The Shepherd of the Hills" and that he was acquainted and associated with Mr. Wright. In fact, "Uncle Ike" Is the only person now residing in the Ozark country who was actually taken and, without alteration or remodel. I rig, placed Into the hovel.

Mr. Wright, while on a tour of the Otarks a few yeara ago, stated that while many natlvea of tho liilla claimed to be characters In the book that Mr. Morrill waa the only one who had not been "worked over." The other rharactera were created In the brain of the writer, after his association with natives of the Ozarks had given him Inspiration. Wnlle Mr. Wright was working on his book, he pitched bis tent near the rim of Mutton Hollow on a farm then owned by J.

K. Ross. The Ross cabin later became known as "Old Matt's Cabin" and Is viewed aa such today by hundreds of tourists. From the Ross farm It was possible for the writer to look out over the wooded hills to the singular peak of Dewey Bald. At night when the blue mists began to rise from the valleys.

It was possible for him to trace the course of White river by the white rift of fog. traversing the blue haxe like thread of silver.

Cowan reported that hi son wa not badly Injured. I Horace Greeley. visit to the poatofflce Mr. Wright often, discussed his work with Morrill and a strong and lasting friendship sprang up. between them.

From the postmaster Mr. Wright learned bit ot. folklore regarding the hills which In the course of the writ ing crept into the manuscript. A However. Mr.

Mornn never once thought that he waa being "worked" into the story until "The Shepherd ot the Hills" came oft the press. Mr. Morrill came to the Oxark about 34 years ago from Lamar, where at one time he owned ndoperated a weekly newspaper. Poor health made Unnecessary for him to seek new energy and vitality In the great outdoore. An exploring party, made up of men who had served during the Civil War, waa organised at Lamar for the purpoae of visiting; Marvel Cave, which at that time was known a "Devil' Den." Mr.

Morrill and Thurman Powell, also 1 of Lamar, headed the party. They went to Stone county and spent a week In the vicinity of the cave, conducting the first exploration of which an accurate record waa kept. They were so Impressed by the natural beauty of the country that they decided to leave Lamar and make their home in the hills. It waa In thi way that the Morrill and Powell families came Into the Ozark. Both Morrill and Powell home steaded land in the vicinity of the cave and moved their familie to Stone county from Lamar.

Mr. Powell later represented Stone county In the general assembly at Jeffer son City. Soon after coming to the Ozarks, Mr. Morrill was made postmaster at Notch, which position he has held since that time. 'Worked for Urertey.

As a young man, Mr. Morrill spent A portion of his time as an Indian fighter in the west Later he waa employed as a printer on the New York Tribune at the time wben Horace Oreeley was editor of the pa per. Kven at thla time, Mr. Morrill recalls with much amusemebt the difficulty which he encountered In reading Greeley' copy which waa turned over to him for composition. Often when Morrill went to Oreeley with the complaint that he was unable to read the copy, the editor without a much aa railing hie heart from hi work wonld ayt "Well, make it read correctly." one of the most treasured keepsake now In the possession ot Mr.

Mor rill la a printer's stick which he used while working for Oreeley In the Tribune office. Mr. Morrill Is still In vlgorou heaUhatid write easily without the aid of glasses. He i at the poatofflce each day, going about hi dutlea and greeting numeroua tourist who, after visiting Marvel i Cave, never fall to call upon the genial "Postmaster at the Forks."
