In 1884 after the gold rush of 1867 Lincoln Place’s booming economy started heavy growth for the town and surrounding areas. Under the rule of Dave Loc, many family’s came into the area. 1886 a revolt started once again, over the true ruler of Lincoln Place. Many family staked their claim against Dave Loc. Feuds and waring raged through the country side once again, only 20 years after Lincoln’s Civil War againest Dave Loc. The fighting ceased in the Bloodiest battle Lincoln Place has ever seen. Outside the Mifflin barracks, many lost their lives in the Battle of Mifflin, in which the true ruler was decided.
