Right on this road is HOLY CROSS CEMETERY, =0.3 m.=, one of the first cemeteries in the State, established in 1862. The first burial here is said to have been that of a priest who had been beheaded by an Indian. Another victim of frontier tragedy whose body rests here was Archibald Montrose, a young English nobleman who came to America to establish a home. He was found frozen within a few rods of his own door during a blizzard in 1871. His devoted young wife ordered a covered shelf built on the outside wall of their cabin beneath her bedroom window, and had his coffin placed there. In the spring, when the ground had thawed sufficiently to permit the digging of a grave, she unwillingly consented to the burial of her husband's body. Soon afterward their baby daughter, born after the father's death, died also, and the mother, her mind affected by the grief of her bereavements, joined them in the nearby burial ground. For many years a large wooden cross marked the spot where Montrose died. WILD RICE, =191 m.= (909 alt., 35 pop.), is the center of a French-Canadian farming community. HICKSON, =196 m.= (915 alt., 100 pop.), is named for the Ole Hicks family who were early farmers in the vicinity. At =198.5 m.= is the junction with ND 46, a graveled highway. Right on this highway to a bridge crossing the SHEYENNE RIVER, =9 m.= On the bridge a tablet has been placed reading: "Sibley Trail 1863. Sibley's Indian Expedition crossed the Sheyenne at this point Aug. 20, returning from the Missouri to Fort Abercrombie." At =9.5 m.= is the junction with a graveled spur. Right on this road to KINDRED, =1 m.= (948 alt., 429 pop.), a tree-shaded town named for F. E. and W. A. Kindred, surveyors who platted the town site and later were large landholders in the vicinity. The community is principally Scandinavian. An interesting COLLECTION (_open by arrangement_) of European museum pieces and Indian artifacts is owned by Hjalmer Rustad of Kindred, and is kept at his home.
