To CoMPUTK Interest. — One of the best lailes for computing interest is to divide the principal l)y 6, which gives the interest at 6 per centum for one y 6, will give the same result. Dividing the principal by 6, will al.'^o give the interest for ten days, with cents undei- dollars, and for 100 days, with mills under cents. .Another Rule. — To obtain 6 per cent for any number of months and [days, multiply half the principal by the number ot months and one thinl of the days. [This rule, like most of those in j general u.«e, allows 30 days for one month, and 360, instead of 365, for a year ; but it is sufficiently accurate for ordinary business trans.ac^tions.] On large sums, the interest for a single day is of great importance. — Six per cent, on our national debt, which was reported on December Ist, 1869, to be $2,648,234,682, for one day would amount to $441,372 44.7, and for ten days, to !{;4,413,734 47.0. After computing the interest at 6 per cent, if 7 percent, is required, add one-sixth ; for 8, i^j' ; 9, y. ; 10, %. To Estimate Acres. — To find the- acres in a field, multiply the rods long' by the rods wide, aad divide by IGO. An acre contains 160 rods, 4,840 yards, .ind 43,560 foot. 32 STAT18TICS.

HISTORICAL SKETCHES 33 A PIOTUEEjOr OHIO ONE HUNDEED TEAES AGO. Col. James Smith, who was captured by Ohio Indians in 1755, gives in his Journal, published in 1799, a detailed account of his captivity, the ceremo- nies connected with his adoption into an Indian tribe, and his sojourn with his savage companions in what was then a vast wilderness, but now the highly cultivated and densely populated State of Ohio, which Is so interest- ing that Ave have concluded to republish portions of the narrative. After the return of Mr, Smith from Indian captivity, In 1759, he was en- trusted with the command of a company of riflemen in Pennsylvania. He trained his men in Indian tactics and discipline, and distinguislied himself as an officer both before and during the war of the Revolution. Tlie latter part of his life was spent in Kentucky, where he served for several terms in the state legislature, was much respected, and died in 1812. HIS CAPTURE. In the spring of 1755, James Smith, then eighteen years of age, was cap- tured by Indians near Bedford, in Pennsylvania. His captors first led him to the banks of the Alleghany, opposite Fort Du Quesne, where he was com- pelled to run the gauntlet between two long ranks of Indians placed two or three rods apart. After running some distance without serious injury, he was felled by a blow from a stick or tomaliawk handle, and, on attempting to rise, was blinded by sand thrown in his eyes and rendered insensible by repeated blows. When he recovered his consciousness, he found himself within the fort, much bruised, and under the care of a French phy&ician. A few days afterw ards, he was placed in a canoe and taken to an Indian village about forty miles up the Alleghany river, where he remained a few weeks. His captors then took him to tlie Indian village of Tullihas, on a branch of the Muskingum, near the junction of the Owlcreek with Mohican river, in what is now Coshocton county, Ohio. HIS ADOPTION BY THE INDIANS. The ceremonies connected with Smith's adoption by the Indians, while at Tullihas, we give in his own language : " The day after my arrival at the aforesaid town, a number of Indians collected about me, and one of them began to pull the hair out of my head. He had some ashes on a piece of bark, in whicli he frequently dipped his fingers, in order to take the firmer liold, and so he went on, as if lie had been plucking a turkey, until he had all of the hair clean out of my head, except a small spot^about three or four inches square on my crown. This they cut oft" with a pair of scissors, excepting three locks, which they dressed up in their own mode. Two of these they wrapped with a narrow braided garter, made by themselves tor that purpose, and the other they plaited at full length, and then stuck it full of silver brooches. After this they bored [Oojitiiinp'fl on alternate pases.] STATISTICS. Table giv 'n(j the number of days frum any day i?i one month to the samt day 171 am/ other. FKU.M Jan. Feb. Mar. A p. May Jn.

PageS; 2fo or folio 1 2 4 4to. or quarto 2 Svo. or octayo ... 4 12mo . 6 16mo 8 18mo 9 24mo 12 32mo 16 4 . .8 8. . 16 12 .24 16 32 18.. 36 24 .48 32 . 64 Afterwards, when larger sheets of paper wex-e manufactured, books con- tinued to be designated in the same wa}', but were distinguished from the above by prefixing the name of the sheet, thus : a sheet 22 by 28 inches, was called "Royal," and. books printed on it wei-e called roy- al folio, royal ([uarto, royal octa. etc. TxBhK, s ho wiiiij the comparatire dif- ference between good hay, and other articles of food for stock- 10 lbs. of good hay are equal to 8 to 10 lbs. clover'hay. 45 to .50 " green clover, 40 to 50 " wheat straw. 20 to 40 " barley or oat straw, 20 to 25 " potatoes, 25 to 40 " carrots, 30 to 35 " mangold wurtzel, 45 to 50 " turnips, 20 to 30 " cabbage, 3 to 5 " peas and beans, 5 to 6 " wheat and Inirlcy, 4 to 7 " oats and corn, 2 to 4 " oil cake. In the use of the above table much will depend upon the (piality of the sample, and the form in which the food is administered. Much also depends upon a change of food ami the condition of the animal. The results of numerous experi- ments, reported by Agricultural As- sociations, show, that eucli 100 lbs. of live weight of the animal, requires of hay or its equivalent, daily,'if a horse, 3.08 lbs.~if an ox, 2.40 lbs. HISTORICAL SKETCHES 35 my nose and ears, and fixed me off with ear-rings and nose-jewels. Then they ordered me to strip off ray clotlies and put on a breech-elout, wliieh I did. Tliey then painted my head, face and body, in various colors. They put a large belt of wampum on my neck, and silver bands on my hands and riglit arm ; and so an old Chief led me out on the street, and gave the alarm halloo, coo-ioigh, several times, repeated quick ; and on this, all that were in the town came running and stood round the Chief, who held me by the hand in the midst. As I at that time knew nothing of their mode of adop- tion, and had seen them put to death all they had taken alive, I made no doubt but they were about putting me to death in some cruel manner. The old Cliief, holding me by the hand, made a long speech, very loud, and when he liad done, he handed me to three young squaws, who led me by the hand down the bank, into the river, until the water was up to our middle. The squaws then made signs to me to plunge myself into the water, but I did not understand them. I thought the result of the council was that I should be drowned, and that these young ladies were to be my executioners. They all laid violent hold of me, and I for some time opposed them with all my might, which occasioned loud laughter by the multitude that were on the bank of the river. At length one of the squaws made out to speak a little English (for I believe thej' began to be afraid of me) and said "/lo hurt you.''' I then gave myself up to their ladyships, who were as good as their word ; for tliough they plunged me under water, and washed and rubbed me severely, yet I could not say they hurt me much." These young ladies then led Smith up to the council house, where some of the tribe dressed him with new clothes and ornaments. They then seated him upon a bear-skin and furnished hini with a pipe and tobacco. The In- dians then came in, took their seats and remained smoking for some time in profound silence. At length one of the chiefs arose and delivered the fol- lowing speech, which was communicated to Smith through an intei'preter : " My son, you are now flesh of our flesh and bone of our bone. By the ceremony which was performed this day, every drop of white blood was washed out of your veins; you are taken into the Caughnewago nation and initiated into a viar-like tribe; you are adopted into a great family, and now received with great seriousness and solemnity in the room and place of a great man. After what has passed this day, you are now one of us by an old and strong law and custom. My son, you have now nothing to fear : We are now under the same obligations to love, support and defend you, that we are to love and defend one anotlier; therefore, you are to consider youivelf as one of our people." Knowing that the white blood was not washed nut of him. Smith did not at the time believe the chief to be sincere in his professions of friendship and fidelity, but states, that while he remained with them, they always 30 BUJ^TNESS 1> I RECTO R Y.

After this part of the ceremonies were completed, Smith was introduced to his new kin, and told that he was to attend a feast that evening. He was accordingl}' furnished, like the i-est, with a bowl and wooden spoon, which each carried v/itli him to the feast.

JOHN B. MEREDITH. THE GEEAT MAP IMPEOVEMENTS. Editors of newspapers all over the country have referred to the new sys- tem of maps In language similar to the following, which is copicLl from the Richland County Gazette : The Improved Maps. — Hon. John B. Meredith, a practical printer, and late Judge of the Probate Coiut of this count}', has secured the copyright for a new system of maps, embracing improvements of such immense value, that it is predicted he will revolutionize, if not control, the entire map busi- ness of the country. AVe liave secured a copy of the one he has just pub- lished for this county. It is certainly the most practical and useful map we have ever examined. We will not attempt a definite description of the improvements which disting.iisii his maps from all others. They must be seen to be properly appreciated. An idea of their importance, may be inferred fi'om the fact that more practical information can be obtained fi-om the map before us in one minute, than could be gathered in an hour from those heretofore in use. The miles and course not only to the residence of a pMjrson, or to any section of land in the county, but to each comity seat of the State and all the principal cities of the Tnited St4ites, are seen at a glance. In addition to its double value as a county ma|), it supplies the place to a great extent, of one both for the state and nation. Every sensi- ble man will be anxious to secure a copy. To supply tho demand for county maps alone. Judge Meredith will be compelled either to sell the right to publish them, or secure the assistance of a great many activt^ men in each State. As the copyright does away with all competition, and is estimated to be worth more money than any one man could enjoy, lie can aflord to divide the profits with all who aid him in the work, allowing eacii to niake a fortune. Success to the enterprise. lIISTOlilCAL SKETCHES. ;ii> . After giving accounts of several hunts witli the Wyandots in the vicinity of the lake, Smith describes anotlicr hunting expedition with them up the river, Tliey all embarked In a birch bark canoe, which was about 35 feet long, 4 wide, and 3 deep. Altliougli capable of carrying a heavy burden, it was so liglit and ingeniously constructed, that four men could carry it for miles. On reaching a good place to hunt, they carried it up the bank, and by turning it upside down, converted it into a house or camp. Tbey kept moving and hunting up the river until they came to the falls, wliere they remained for several weeks and killed a number of deer, several bears and u great many raccoons. Before leaving this camp, they hurried tlieir canoe in the gi'ound, to preserve it during the winter season. After travellhig an easterly course about twenty -two miles, they came to a large creek, where their cabni for winter quarters was erected. In building it, they cut logs about fifteen feet long, and placing one upon another, between posts driven in the ground at each end, two walls were erected about twelve feet apart, and four fi^et high. The posts were tied together with bark. Between tliese walls, at each end, they placed a fork in the ground, and a large pole extendini; from one fork to the other, with smaller ones from it to the walls, supported a bark roof. The ends of the cabin were en- closed with split timber, set on end, and the cracks stopjied with moss. A bear skin, hung at each end, served as doors, and an opening along the center of the roof, supplied the place of a chimney. In tins little hut, 12 by 14 feet scjuare, the whole party, consisting of eight hunters and thirteen squaws, besides boys and children, slept soundly upon their best bedding, consisting of bear skins spread upon brush and linn bark. Soon after their winter quarters were completed, four of the hunters started upon an expedition against the English settlements, leaving Tonti- leaugo, three other Indians and Smith, to supply the camp with food. — The winter months passed in hunting excursions — the bear, even more than the deer, being an object of active and successful pursuit. In February and March, 1756, while the men and boys were hunting and trapping, the squawks made sugar. Tliey caught and gathered the sugar- water in vessels which they constructed for that purpose out of linn bark. Smith says, " The way we commonly used our sugar when encamped, was by putting it in bear's fat, until the fat was almost as sweet as the sugar itself, and in this we dipped our roasted venison." In the latter part of March, the squaws having renderd the 1)ears' fat, and placed it in vessels which the}' had made of deer skins to hold it, the party commenced their return trip. After reaching the Falls and building another canoe of elm bark, they embarked, and reached their camp at the mouth of the river in time to prepare for planting corn. The work, ex- <-ept hunting, trapping, etc., is always performed by the squaws. On one occasion, after the Indians had given French traders skins for clothing and other necessary articdes.

HISTOIUOAL SKETCHES. 41 with others to the cornfield, where the squaws were at work, as follows: " After I had got my new clothes, and my head done off like a redheaded woodpecker, I, in company with a number of young Indians, went down to the cornfield, to see the squaws at work. When we came there, they asked me to take a hoe, which I did, and hoed for some time. The squaws applauded me as a good hand at the business; but when I returned to the town, the old men hearing of what I had done, chid me, and said that 1 was adopted in place of a great man, and must not hoe corn like a squaw. They never had occasion to reprove me for anything like this again ; as I never was extremely fond of work, I readily complied with their orders." As the Indians, on their return from a winter hunt, bring with them large quantities of bear's oil, sugar and dried venison, they for a time have plenty, and do not spare eating or giving. In this way they make way with their provisions as soon as possible. Having no such thing as regular meals, if any one would go to the same house several times in a day, he would be invited to eat of the best— and with them it is bad maners to refuse to eat when it is offered, being interpreted as a symptom of displeasure. While provisions were plenty, the hunters became lazy, and spent their time in singing and dancing, or some other amusement. They appeared to be fulfilling the scriptures beyond those wIjo professed to believe them, in that of taking no thought of to-morrow— living in love and peace with each other. In this respect they shame those who profess Christianity. The size of this volume forbids the idea of our attempting to notice all the hunting expeditions and adventures of this Ohio Crusoe, during his captiv- ity of over four years among the Indians. Only that part of his narrative deemed most interesting to the people of tlii;? State, has been referred to. Should it enable the reader to form a correct idea of the contrast between •'Ohio over one hundred years ago," and its present condition, our object in noticing Smith and his captors, may be considered accomplished.

Richland County was organized March 1, 1813, and embraced territory 30 miles square. By the erection of the county of Ashland in 1845, and Morrow county in 1848, her boundaries have been reduced to their present limits. A large proportion of the early settlers of the county emigrated from Pennsylvania and Virginia, who commenced settling on branches of the Moliican as early as 1809. Among these pioneers were James McCluer, Samuel McCluer, Henry McCart, Andrew Craig, James Cunningham, Fred- erick Herring, Abraham Baughman, Henry Nail, Samuel Lewis, Peter Kin- ney, Calvin Hill, John Murphy, Thomas Coulter, Melzar Tannehill, Isaac Martin, Stephen Van Schoick and Archibald Gai'dner. Mansfield was laid out in 1808, by James Hedges, Jacob Newman and Joseph H. Larwill. The last named gentleman pitched his tent on the rise of ground above the Big Spring, and opened the first sale of lots on the 8th of October. The county was then a wildei-ness, without a road through it. The first purchasers came in from Knox, Columbiana, Stark and other partially settled counties. Among the first settlers of Mansfield were Geo. Coffinberry, Winn Winship, Rollin Weldon, J. C. Gilkison, John Wallace, and Joseph Middleton. Most of the following facts, derived from Mr. Henry Nail and other early settlers, were published some years since, in Howe's History of Ohio. We have made some corrections and added further particulars. In September, 1812, shortly after the breaking out of the late war with Great Britain, two block-houses were built in Mansfield. One stood a little south of the center, and the other near the west side of the public square. The first was built by a company commanded by Capt. Shaefier, from Fair- field county, and the other by the company of Col. Charles Williams, of Co- shocton. A garrison was stationed at the place, until after the battle of the Thames. At the commencement of hostilities, there was a settlement of friendly Indians of the Delaware tribe, at a place called Greentown, within the pres- ent township of Green, in Ashland county. This Indian village contained some 60 cabins, with a council-house about 60 feet long, 25 wide, one story in height, built of posts and elapboarded. The village contained several luindred persons. As a measure of safety, they were collected, in August, 1812, and sent to some place in the western part of the state, under protec- tion of the government. They were first brought to Mansfield, and placed under guard, at the run, south-west of the public square. While there, a young Indian and squaw came up to the block-house, with a request to the chaplain. Rev. James Smith of Mt. Vernon, to marry them after the man- ner of the whites. In the absence of the guard, who had came up to wit- ness tlie ceremony, an old Indian and his daughter, aged about 12 years, who were from Indiana, took advantage of the circumatance and escaped 44 RICHLAXD COUXTY. Two spies from Coshocton, named Morrison and MeColloch, met them near the run, abont a mile north-west of Manslield ; and as the commanding of- ficer, Col. Kratzer, had given orders to shoot all Indians found out of the bounds of the place, under the impressson that all such must be enemies, Morrison, on dis(;overing them, shot the father through tlie breast. He fell mortally wouned — then springing up, ran about 200 yards, and fell to rise no more. The girl escaped. There was living at this time, on the Black Fork of Mohican, about half a mile west of where Petersburg now is, a ^Nlr. 3Iartin Rutt'ner. Having- removed his family for safety, no person was with him in tlie cabin, except- ing a bound boy. About two miles south-east of Ruff'ner's house, stood the cabin of the Seymours. This family consisted of the parents— both very old people— a maiden daughter, Catherine, and her brotlier Philip, who was a bachelor. One evening Mr. Ruffner sent out the lad to the creek l)ottom, to bring home tiie cows, when he discovered four Indians and ran. Thej^ called to him, saying they would not harm liim, l)ut wished to speak to him. Hav- ing- ascertained from him that the Seymours were at home, they left, and he hurried back and told Ruft'ner of the circumstance; upon which he took down his rifle and started for Seymour's. He an-ived there, and was ad- vising young Seymour to go to the cabin of Mr. Copus, and get old Mr. Co- pus and his son to come up and help take the Indians prisoners, when the latter were seen approaching. Upon this, young Seymour passed out of the back door and hurried to Copus's, while the Indians entered the front door with their rifles in hand. The Seymours received them with an apparent cordiality, and the daugh- ter spread tlie table. The Indans, however, did not appear to be inclined to eat, but soon arose and commenced the attack. RuflTner, who was a powerful man, made a desperate resistance. Using his rifle as a club, he broke the stock to pieces; but lie fell before superior numbers, and was af- terwards found dead and scalped in the yard, witli two rifle balls through him, and several flngers cut oft" by a tomahawk. The old people and daughter were found tomahawked and scalped in the house. In an hour or so after dark, young Seymour returned with Mr. Copus and son, making their way througli the woods b}"^ the light of a hickory bark torch. Approaching the cabin, they found all dark and silent within. Young Seymour attempted to open the door, when it flew back. Reaching forward, he touched the corpse of the old man, and exclaimed in tones of anguish, "here is the blood of my poor fatlier! " Before tliey reached the place, they heard the Indians whistling on their powder chai-gers, upon which they put out the light and were not molested. These murders, supposed to have been committed by some of the Green- town Indians, spread terror among tlie settlers, who immediately fortified tlieir cabins and erected several block-houses. Among them was Xail's. on RICHLAND COUNTY. 45 the Clear fork of Mohican ; Beam's on the Rocky fork ; one on the site of Ganges, and a picketed house on the farm of Thomas Coulter, near the pres- ent village of Perrysville, on the Black fork. Shortly after this, a party of 12 or 14 militia from Guernsey county, who were out on a scout, without any authority burnt the Indian village of Greentown, which at that time was deserted. At night thej' stopped at the cabin of Mr. Copus,on the Black fork, about 9 miles southeast of Mansfield. The next morning, as four of thom were at the spring washing, a few rods from the cabin, they were tired upon by a party of Indians in ambush. They all ran for the house, except Warnock, who retreated in another di- rection, and was afterwards found dead in the woods, about a half mile distant. Ilis body was resting against a tree, with his handkerchief stuffed in the wound in his bowels. Two of the others, George Shipley and John Tedrick, were killed and scalped between the spring and the house. The fourth man, Robert Dye, in passing ])etvveen the shed and cabin, suddenly met a warrior with his uplifted tomaliawk. He dodged and escaped into the house, carrying with him a bullet in his thigh, Mr. Copus at the first alarm had opened the door, and was mortally wounded by a rifle ball in his breast. He was laid on the bed, and in a few minutes the Indians attacked the cabin. "Fight and save my family," said he, "for I am a dead man." The attack was fiercely made, and several balls came through the door, upon which they pulled up the puncheons from the floor and placed them ag-rinst it. Mrs. Copus and her daughter went up into the loft for safety, and the latter was slightlj' wounded in the thigh, from a ball thrown from a neighboring hill. One of the soldiers, George Launtz, was in the act of removing a chunk of wood from between the logs of the cabin, to make an opening to fire through, when a ball entered the hole and broke his arm. After this, he watched till he saw an Inian put his head from behind a stump, when he fired, and the fellow's brains were scattered over it. After about an hour, the Indians having suftered severe loss, retreated. Had they first attacked the house, it is probable that the Indians would have gained an easy victory. It is proper to state that there are several versions of tliis skirmish at the cabin of Mr. Copus. The oldest settlers do not agree in several particulars. In a note appended to the above account, as narrated by Mr. Howe, he saj's, "We have three different accounts of this aftair: one from Wyatt Hiitcliin- son, of Guernsey, then a lieutenant in the Guernsey militia ; one from Hen- ry Nail, who was with some of the wounded men the night following; and the other from a gentleman living in Mansfield at the time. Each difters in some essential particulars. Much experience has taught us that it is almost impossible to get perfectly accurate verbal narrations of eyents that have taken place years since, and which live only in memory.'" Mr. Levi Jones was shot bj' some Greentown Indians in what is now the northern part of Mansfield, a few rods east of the Atlantic House, in August, 46 RICHLAND COUNTY 1813. He kept a store in Manslield, and when the Greentown Indians left, refused to give up some rifles they had left as security for debt. He was waylaid, shot and scalped. The report of the rifles being heard in town, a party went out and found his body much mutilated, and buried him in the old graveyard. This wae the last white man killed by Indians in the coun- ty of Richland, of which we have any account. After the war, some of the Greentown Indians returned to the county to hunt, but their town having been destroyed, they had no flxed residence. Two of them, young men named Seneca John and Quilipetox, came to Wil- liams' tavern, located at the southwest corner of the public square, oppo- site the site of the present Farmers' National Bank, in Mansfleld, about noon ; had a frolic, and quarrelled with some whites. About 4 o'clock in the afternoon they left, partially Intoxicated. Those with whom they had qarrelled, five in number, went in pursuit, vowing revenge. They over- took them about a mile east of town, shot them down, and t»uried them at the foot of a large maple on the edge of the swamp, by thrusting their bod- ies down deep in the mud. The place of their interment is known to this day as "Spook Hollow." "JOHNNY APPLESEED." At an early day, there was a very eccentric character frequetly seen in Richland and the adjoining counties, well remembered by the early settlers. His real name was Jonathan Chapman, but he was usually known as John- ny Appleseed. He was originally, it is supposed, from New England. Having imbibed a remarkable passion for the rearing and cultivation of apple trees from the seed, Johnny first made his. appearance in western Pennsylvania, and from thence into Ohio, keeping on the outskirts of the settlements, and following his favorite pursuit. He was accustomed to clear spots in the loamy lands on the banks of the streams, plant his seeds, en- close the ground, and then leave the place until the trees had in a measure grown. When the settlei-s began to flock in and open their "clearings," Johnny was ready for them with his young trees, which he either gave away or sold for some trifle, as an old coat, or anj' other article he could use. Thus he proceeded for many years, until the whole country was in a meas- ure settled and supplied with apple trees, deriving self-satisfaction amount- ing almost to delight, in the indulgence of his engrossing passion. After this county was well settled, he removed to the far west, there to enact over again the same career of humble usefulness. His personal appearance was as singuhir as his character. He was a small "chuncked" man, quick and restless in his motions and conversation. His beard and hair were long and dark, and his eyes black and sparkling. He lived the roughest life, and often slept in the woods. His clothing was mostly old, being generally given to him in exchange for apple trees. He usally went bare-footed, and often travelled miles through the snow in that way. In doctrine, he vviis a follower of Sweden bourg— leading a mor- RICHLAND COUNTY. 47 al, blameless life, likening hinaself to the primitive Christians, — literally takiiitj no thought for the morrow. Wherever he went, he circulated Swe- denliorgiau works, and if short of them, would tear a book in two, and give a part of it to different persons. He was careful not to injure any animal, and thought hunting morally wrong. He was welcome every where among the settlers, and treated with great kindness even by the In- dians. We give a few anecdotes, illustrative of his character and eccentri- cities. On one cool autumnal night, while lying by his camp-fire in the woods, he observed that the musquitoes flew in the blaze and were burnt. Johnny, who wore oil his heiwl a tin utensil which answered both as a cap and a mush pot, filled it witli water and quenched the fire, and afterwards remark- ed, "God forbid that I should build a fire for my comfort, that should be the means of destroying any of his creatures." On another occasion he built his camp-fire at the end of a hollow log in which he intended to pass the night, but finding it occupied by a bear and her cubs, he removed his fire to the other end, and slept on the snow in the open air, rather than to dis- turb the bear. He bought a coffee bag, made a hole in the bottom, through which lie thrust his head and wore it as a cloak, saying "it is as good as any thing."

Tl'e following singular legal anecdote is related as having occurred at New Philadelphia at an early day : The court was held on this occasion at a log tavern, and an adjoining log stable was used as a jail, the stalls answering as cells for the prisoners. — Judge T. was on the bench, and in the exercise of his judicial functions severely reprimanded two young lawyers who had got into a personal dis- pute. A huge, hurculean backwoodsman, attired in a red flannel shirt, stood among the spectators in the apartment which served the double pur- pose of court and bar-room. He was much pleased with the judge's lec- ture — having himself been practising at another bar — and hallooed out to his worship — who happened to be cross-eyed — in the midst of his harangue, " give it to 'em, old gimblet eyes!" "Who is that?" demanded the judge. He of the flannel shirt, proud of being thus noticed, stepped out from among the rest, and stretching himself up to his full height, vociferated " it's this 'ere old hossT The judge, who was always ready with a pungent repartee when occasion required, called out in a peculiarly dry and nasal tone, " Sherift"! take that old /loss— put him in the stable, and see that he is not stolen before morning." 48 BUSINESS NOTICES.

RICHLAND COUNTY. 49 EIOHLAND COUNTY WHEN OEGANIZED, IN 1813. At the organization of the county of Richland, in the spring of 1813, Samuel Waison, Melzar Tannehill and Samuel McCluer, were elected as County Commissioners, who held their first session in Mansfield, on June 7, of that year. From their recorded proceedings, we are enabled to gath- er some interesting facts connected with the early history of the county, not embraced in any of the historical sketches heretofore published. The record shows that from six to nine of the 25 townships, as originally surveyed and numbered, wefb thrown together, forming but three munici- palities or election districts, known as Madison, Jefferson and Green town- ships. On August 9, 1814, the county was divided into 4 townships, giving to tlie new one the name of "Vermillion," which embraced 12 by 18 square miles of territory in the northeast corner of the county, most of which is now in Asliland county. This left Green with 12 by 12 square miles in the southeast— Jefferson, 12 by 18, in the southwest, and Madison 18 by 18, in the northwest part of the county. So rapid was the increase of population in the county, that these four townships were soon subdivided and new ones formed out of the territory they had embraced. On the 5th of September, 1814, Troy was organized out of tlie north half of Jeflerson, and Mifflin out of the west half of Vermillion, reducing each to 6 by 18 square miles. On June 6, 1815, Worthington was organized out of the west half of Green, and Montgomery out of the north part (two-thirds) of Vermillion, which reduced lier to an original township, embracing 6 by 6 square miles. On March 4, 1816, Madison was reduced to her present boundaries by the or- ganization of Bloominggrove and Springfield townships. The first was made to embrace 12 by 18 square miles in the northwest part of the county, while Springfield included the township afterwards known as Sandusky, two-thirds of which is now in Crawford county. On June 3, 1816, Orange township was formed out of the north half of Montgomery, reducing her to G by 6 square miles. Tims, in three years, the number had increased from tliree to eleven organized townsliips, four of which contained but 36 sections each. It is sufficient to state,.in this connection, that at difterent sessions of the Commissioners afterwards, others were added to the number, until all the 25 townships, as originally surveyed and numbered, were sep- arately organized. We will now refer to some other intei-esting facts gathered from the re- corded proceedings of the first board of County Commissioners. Tlieir first entry, (June 7, 1813,) is the appointment of Andrew Coffin- berry as their Clerk. They then proceeded to levy the "chattel tax" for the year 1813, which was fixed at "30 cents for each horse or mare, and 10 cents for each head of neat cattle of a taxable age," which embraced all over 3 years old. From the same day's proceeding it appears that John Wallace filed his.ofticial bond as Sherift'of Richland county.

Vernon, until the Indian troubles had subsided. He was one of the first Associate Judges of the count}^ — served for several sessions as a member of the Ohio Senate, and was uni- versally respected both for his public services and private worth.] THE FIIIST COURT HOUSE. On Jidy 10, 181:5, the Commissioners ordered that the block-houstr, stand- ing a little south of tlie center of the public square, wiiich had been erected for the protection of the early settlers against Indian depredations, be fitted up for the use of the county — the upper story for a court house, and the lower part for a jail. The carpenter work, being let to the lowest bidder, was awarded to Luther Coe, on August 4, 1813, for the sum of forty dollars. When the job was completed, the bill was paid out of a fund donated to the county b,v James Hedges, for the erection of public buildings in Mansfield. [The contract tor building our present court house, which succeeded the block-house, was made in 182G. Its cost, as fixed by the contract, was $3000. Tlie new one, the corner stone of which was laid with appropriate ceremonies on September 27, 1870, is under contract at a cost ot $177,000.] On September 7, 1813, John Pugh was appointed Treasurer of Richland county, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of Levi Jones, who had been killed by Indians. THE FIRST COURT OF RECORD. In June, 1813, the first court of record within the count}' was held. It was a special session of the Common Pleas, held b\' the three Associate Judges, Peter Kinney, Thos, Coulter and Wm. Gass, for probate business.

In giving a list of the officers of Richland County from its organization, in 1813, to 1S70, we are unable to gatlier from the records the' exact time of service of some of the first incumbents. Up to the year 1821, the Coun- ty Commissioners and tln-ir Clerk seem to have performed all the duties which afterwards devolved upon the County Auditor. Several of the first County Treasurers were appointed by the Commissioners, and the taxes were paid to Collectors before they reached the Treasurer. COUNTY TEEASUREES.

We moved into the cabin the latter part of April, without waiting for the puncheon floor and paper windows, with which it was after- wards embellished'. No time Avas to be lost in preparing; tlie forest for a patch of corn and potatoes. My vcneralle father, with the assistance ren- dered him by m,y brother, then 11 years old, and myself, two yeai-s young- er, (and boys u-orked in those days,) then commenced our first clearing. — By the middle of June we had about an acre of ground cleared, enclosed with a temporary iirush fence, and planted with corn, pumpkins and pota- toes. This aftbrded us roasting-ears and potatoes by the first of September, and piim okins in October. Our "truck-patch," with some two or three acres cleared beside it, were sown in wlieat the same fall, wliich may be taken as proof that we were not idle the first summer. Our bread for the first six months, was made from two liushels of wheat and a few bushels of corn bought and ground at a mill in Knox county. Many of the early set- tlers, for want of monev to buy grain, and for the want of mills to grind it after it was procured, were compelled to use hominy for days, as a substi- tute for bread. I knew (me family whose diet for several weeks consisted of dried venison and milk. Those who owned a milch cow, could always liave plenty of milk during tlie summer season, because the pasture in the woods, was then ecjual to a clover-field. Fresh meat was also easily ob- tained. A kind Providence had supplied the forest with a great many deer and turkej's. They served as food for tiie red men, and were well adapted to the wants of the white settlers. The bees, too, had their lioney-stores in hollow forest trees, so that after we had sufficient land cleared to raise our bread and furnish provinder for our cows, we imagined ourselves liv- ing on the borders of a land "fiowing with milk and iK)niy." The principal clothing of tlie early settlers consisted of a hunting-shirt, made partly of wool and partly of flax or tow, with buckskin pants, for men and boys. Tiie ladies made their summer dresses of flax, and tliose worn in tlie Winter of flax and wool— all carded, spun and wove by them- selves. I need but add, that ladies were just as attractive in tlieir home- spun dresses then, as they have ever been since Paris Fasliiinis and foolish extravagance have become the order of the day. It would be superfluous for me to attempt to give a detailed account of early times in Richland county. I have only referred to a i'ow facts which camV under my own observation, and will conclude my remarks by calling attention to the experience of a Pioneer of another county of this «tate, as narrated in his communication, publisihed in Howe's History of Ohio. I copy his remarks, with slight variations, so as to make them api)lical)le to many of the first settlers of this county, affording a better idea of Pioneer Life ever3-\vhere, than I would be able to give. Tlie writer says, " People who have spent their lives in an old settled coun- try, can form but a faint idea of the privations and hardship^; endured by the pioneers of our now flouri^;hing and prosperous state. When I look on Ohio as it is, and think of what it was in 1802, when I first settled here, I am struck with a.stonishment, and can hardly credit my own sen-es. When I emigrated, I was a young man, witliout any property, ti-ade or profes.*ion, entirely dependent on my'own industry for a living. I purchased 60 aci-es of new land on credit, two and a half miles from' any house or road, and built a camp of poles 7 by 4 feet, .ind ii high, with tlu-ee sides, and a fire in front. I furnished my s.Vlf witii a loaf of bread, a piece of pickled pork, some potatoes, borrowed a frying-pan, and commenced housekeeping. I w as not hindered from my work by company ; for the first week I did not see a liv- ing soul, bur, to make amends for the want of it, I had every night a most 60 BUSINESS NOTICES. jjlorions concert of wolves and owls.

If a man was only able to pundiase 40 acres of land, and paid for it bj- making rails lor liis ni;ighbor, who owned h whole section, they met as equals.

The following list of Newspapers published iu Mansfield since the organi- zation of Richland county, is derived partly from our own recollection, and partly from the memory of otlier old sctthirs. We are unable either to give the jear in which some of them made their first appearance, or the length of time liiey continued to be published. The Western HaHnitger was publislied by J. C. Gilkison and John Flem- ing. It is thought the first number was issueil about the year 1317. The Mansfield Guzette succeeded the Harbinger, and was pubiishe I by Jas. and J H. Purdy, from 1823 to 1832. In this oflice we set our first type. The Sentinel was published by Josiah F. Reed from 1829 to 1332, when it and the Gazette were mei'ged into the Ohio Spectator. The Ohio Spectator was pal)lished for a time by T. W. Bartley and Henry Layman; then by J. H. Hofman and J. Rentzel, till 1836, when we pur- chased tlie materials and commenced the publication of the Sliield and Ban- ner. In 1841, J. Y. Glesner purchase;! the establishment, and still contin- ues to publish the paper without changing its title. The Richland Wh:'j was published by (]. & J. Borland, from about 1833 to 1837. For near two years alter the Whig was discontinued, the Shield and Banner, then con(Uicted by us, was the only newspaper iu Mansfield. The llichland Jeffersonian was published by J. C. Gilkison & Son, about the year 1S40. It was continued for a few years, when the Mansfield Her- 62 BUSINESS NOTICES. aid became its successor. The Herald was conducted by M. Day and others, till purchased by L. D. Myers & Brotlier, by whom it is still published. The Richland Democrat was publislied for some two or three years, com- mencing in 1848, by Joel Myers and Jacob Reisinger. A i)aper bearing the same title, was also published from 1857 to 1859, by L. C. Kelly & Co. Besides the above, two campaign papers were publislied in Mansfield : — one, entitled "Tlie Penant," by W. L. Tidball, J. L. Tidball and J. Wiley; the other, by Wm. Johnson, entitled "The Bugle." They were both ahly conducted sheets, but we cannot give the date of eitlier. At present we have nine newspapers witliin the territory formerly em- braced in Richland county. Of these, 2 are at Mansfield, 2 at Ashland, 2 at Shelby, 1 at Plymouth, 1 at Crestline and one at Gallon. SAMUEL HAISLET. GEORGE BOWMAN.

Important Achievement/ — A Gvancl Success f When we coinirienced the publication of the New Sijutem of Moj^s, we were full}' satislied tliat the improvements made and seeiired to us by copyright, were so practical and important as to enable us to furnisli our patrons with a coMBiNKD MAP A\D DiRECTOitY, for .$5, euibraciuof more than double the information contained in any of the County Maps recently publislied by other author.*!, and sold at $10 per copy. Our anticipations have been more tlian realized. We not onlj' give double information for half price, but it is presented in such a shape as to be obtained in less than one-tenth of tlie time heretofore required to find it. Besides producing what is conceded to be THE BEST MAP TOE COUNTY PUKPOSES EVER PUBLISHED, It and the Directory, forming one work in two jxirts, supplies the place of and is more than equal in value to tliree large and expensive maps. By the new features displayed on the face of tlie map, with the alpha- betical arrangement of the names of persons and places on its margins and in tlie Director}-, the miles and course to the residence of farmers in all parts of the count}', to each county seat of the State, and to all the principal cities of the United States, are immediately ascertained, without making the map BO large as to be inconvenient for reference. With rhree large, old style maps before him, one for the Countv, another for the State, and a third for the United States, no man would be able to climb up and gather from all of tliem, more than half the practical Infor- mation In an hour, whicii could be obtained in five minutes, without rising from his seat, by referring to our c nnbined Count;/ Map and Dircctorv. This is not all. We have added to what is acknowledged to be the jrosT VALUABLE COUNTY DIRECTORY EVER PUBLISHED, a coHcisc and interesting HISTOEY OF EIOHLAND COUNTY PEOM ITS OEGANIZATION. It embraces a list of the County Officers from 1813 to 1870 ; the conflicts with Indians and other Incidents connected witli the Pioneer Ltfe of the Early .*>c?f/e/-s,- the captivity of Col. Jam js Smith; valuable Statistics, and other interesting matter, which every Intelligent man, woman, boy and girl In the county, will be anxious to read and preserve for future reference. Another important oliject has been accomplished. By inserting Business Notices on alternate pages, every jjerson in tlie county is enabled to learn not only tlie location of business men, but where to buy and whereto sell everything desired. The fact is just becoming known that our l)ook aft'ords THE BEST ADVEETISING MEDIUM EVEE INTEODUCED ! Xever before did the busixkss mex of this coiintv. enjoy the i)rivilege of securing room for their notices In a book which will l)e wanted, read, preserved and referred to for years, hy nearly every family in the county. This fea- ture of our vvork renders it necessary for us to publish An addition to the Booli, in Ala oazinc form, VVhidi, when sent by mail to eaclj subscriber, and bound with the pages air ready published, will form part of the same volume.
