As usual, he started planting his '53 crop on Good Friday. Despite his advanced age, Morgan is still extremely active and his mind is keen and alert. Though he always keeps up on current affairs, particularly on the local level, like all men who have lived a vigorous life, he loves to recall events of the past with which he is extremely familiar. He has seen and participated in enough of history to write a book. Born in Dubuque, IA., he came up the Missouri River by boat with his parents when but 3 years old. His father had a ranch 45 miles southeast of Chamberlain. A brother, Jim, was sheriff in that area and appointed Con his deputy and things were far from peaceful as the Indian reservation was opened in 1883. Cattle rustling was the ordinary thing. Once Con went out to arrest a known rustler. He found him in a shack but the culprit dashed through a doorway and leaped upon a horse. Morgan shot the horse out from under the man at a distance of about 200 yards. Before the bad man could regain his composure, Morgan had him thoroughly tied and en route to Chamberlain, 35 miles away. Morgan was elected sheriff of Brule County, but resigned after his brother had been named his deputy. His love for baseball brought him to a more "settled" area and he was no slouch at the game. He caught for Dubuque in the Three-I League three years, later playing with Sioux City in the Western League and Houston in the Texas League. He made Centerville his home in 1896 when he opened a meat market in that city, an endeavor which he followed for 35 years. In that space of time he served one term as mayor, 14 years on the city council and on the school board for four years.
