On This Date in Minnesota History: January 1


January 1, 1890 – Peter Gooden, Northfield, Minn., was celebrating the advent of the New Year at an early hour this morning by firing a revolver. One shot struck A. Freling in the back, inflicting a serious wound. Gooden admitted the shooting, and claimed the wounding of Freling was accidental. No arrest was made.
