"^ The name of this beautiful Prairie State is derived from lUim, a Delaware word signifying Superior Men. It has a French termination, and is a symbol of how the two races — the French and the Indians — were intermixed during the early history of the country. The appellation was no doubt well applied to the primitive inhabit- ^ants of the soil whose prowess in savage warfare long withstood the -^combined attacks of the fierce Iroquois on the one side, and the no less (X>savage and relentless Sacs and Foxes on the other. The Illinois were ^" once a powerful confederacy, occupying the most beautiful and fertile - region in the great Valley of the Mississippi, which their enemies coveted ^and struggled long and hard to wrest from them. Bv the fortunes of ,war they were diminished in numbers, and finally destroyed. " Starved C^Rock," on the Illinois River, according to tradition, commemorates their ~ last tragedy, where, it is said, the entire tribe starved rather than sur- render. ^ EARLY DISCOVERIES. ■^ The first European discoveries in Illinois date back over two hun- dred years. They are a part of that movement which, from the begin- ning to the middle of the seventeenth century, brought the French Canadian missionaries and fur traders into the Valley of the Mississippi, ■;fand which, at a later period, established the civil and ecclesiastical ithority of France from the Gulf of St. Lawrence to the Gulf of Mexico, d from the foot-hills of the Alleghanies to the Rocky Mountains. j.^ The gre^t river of the West had been discovered by DeSoto, the ■■panish conqueror of Florida, three quarters of a century before the !^ French founded Quebec in 1608, but the Spanish left the country a wil- •' derness, without further exploration or settlement within its borders, in which condition it remained until the Mississippi was discovered by the - agentsof the French Canadian government, Jolietand Marquette, in 1673. ^ These renowned explorers were not the first white visitors to Illinois. In 1671 — two years in advance of them — came Nicholas Perrot to Chicago. He had been sent by Talon as an agent of the Canadian government to 2 J7 14 HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLLNOIS. cull a great peace convention of Western Indians at Green Bay, prepara- tory to the movement for the discovery of the Mississippi. It was deemed a good stroke of policy to secure, as far as possible, the friend- ship and co-operation of the Indians, far and near, before venturing upon an enterprise which their hostility might render disastrous, and which their friendship and assistance would do so much to make successful ; and to this end Perrot was sent to call together in council the tribes throughout the Northwest, and to promise them the commerce and pro- tection of the French government. He accordingly arrived at Green Bay in 1671, and procuring an escort of Pottawattamies, proceeded in a bark canoe upon a visit to the Miamis, at Chicago. Perrot was there- fore the first European to set foot upon the soil of Illinois. Still there were others before Marquette. In 1672, the Jesuit mis- sionaries, Fathers Claude Allouez and Claude Dablon, bore the standard of the Cross from their mission at Green Bay through western Wisconsin and northern Illinois, visiting the Foxes on Fox River, and the Masquo- tines and Kickapoos at the mouth of the Milwaukee. These missionaries penetrated on the route afterwards followed by Marquette as far as the Kickapoo village at the head of Lake Winnebago, where Marquette, in his journey, secured guides across the portage to the Wisconsin. The oft-repeated story of Marquette and Joliet is well known. They were the agents employed by the Canadian government to discover the Mississippi. Marquette was a native of France, born in 1637, a Jesuit priest by education, and a man of simple faith and of great zeal and devotion in extending; the Roman Catholic reliarion among- the Indians. Arriving in Canada in 1666, he was sent as a missionary to the far Northwest, and, in 1668, founded a mission at Sault Ste. Marie. The following year he moved to La Pointe, in Lake Superior, where he instructed a branch of the Hurons till 1670, when he removed south, and founded the mission at St. Ignace, on the Straits of Mackinaw. Here he remained, devoting a portion of his time to the study of the Illinois language under a native teacher who had accompanied him to the mission from La Pointe, till he was joined by Joliet in the Spring of 1673. By the way of Green Bay and the Fox and Wisconsin Rivers, they entered the Mississippi, which they explored to the mouth of the Arkansas, and returned by the way of tlie Illinois and Chicago Rivers to Lake. Michigan. On his way up the Illinois, Marquette visited the great village of the Kaskaskias, near what is now Utica, in the county of LaSalle. The loUowing year he returned and established among them the mission of ihe Immaculate Virgin Mary, which was the first Jesuit mission founded in Illinois and in the Mississippi Valley. The intervening winter he had spent in a hut which his com[)anions erected on the Chicago River, a few leagues from its mouth. The founding of this mission was the last HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. 15 act of Marquette's life. He died in Michigan, on his way back to Green Bay, May 18, 1675. FIRST FRENCH OCCUPATION. The first French occupation of the territory now embraced in Illi- nois was effected by LaSalle in 1680, seven years after the time of Mar- quette and Joliet. LaSalle, having constructed a vessel, the " Griffin," above the falls of Niagara, which he sailed to Green Bay, and having passed thence in canoes to the mouth of the St. Joseph River, by which and the Kankakee he reached the Illinois, in January, 1680, erected Fort Crevecoeur^ at the lower end of Peoria Lake, where the city of Peoria is now situated. The place where this ancient fort stood may still be seen just below the outlet of Peoria Lake. It was destined, however, to a temporary existence. From this point, LaSalle determined to descend the Mississippi to its mouth, but did not accomplish this purpose till two years later — in 1682. Returning to Fort Frontenac for the purpose of getting materials with which to rig his vessel, he left the fort in charge of Touti, his lieutenant, who during his absence was driven oif by the Iro- quois Indians. These savages had made a raid upon the settlement of the Illinois, and had left nothing in their track but ruin and desolation. Mr. Davidson, in his History of Illinois, gives the following graphic account of the picture that met the eyes of LaSalle and his companions on their return : " At the great town of the Illinois they were appalled at the scene which opened to their view. No hunter appeared to break its death-like silence with a salutatory whoop ot welcome. The plain on which the town had stood was now strewn with charred fragments of lodges, which had so recently swarmed with savage life and hilarity. To render more hideous the picture of desolation, large numbers af skulls had been placed on the upper extremities of lodge-poles which had escaped the devouring flames. In the midst of these horrors was the rude fort of the spoilers, rendered frightful by the same ghastly relics. A near approach showed that the graves had been robbed of their bodies, and swarms of buzzards were discovered glutting their loathsome stomachs on the reeking corruption. To complete the work of destruction, the growing corn of the village had been cut down and burned, while the pits containing the products of previous years, had been rifled and their contents scattered with wanton waste. It was evident the suspected blow of the Iroquois had fallen with relentless fury." Touti had escaped LaSalle knew not whither. Passing down the lake in search of him and his men, LaSalle discovered that the fort had been destroyed, but the vessel which he had partly constructed was stiU 16 HISTORY OP THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. on the stocks and but slightly injured. After further fruitless search, failing to find Touti, he fastened to a tree a painting representing himself and party sitting in a canoe and bearing a pipe of peace, and to the paint- ing attached a letter addressed to Touti. Touti liad escaped, and, after untold privations, taken shelter among the Pottawattamies near Green Bay. These were friendly to the French. One of their old chiefs used to say, " There were but three great cap- tains in the world, himself, Touti and LaSalle." GENIUS OF LaSALLE. We must now return to LaSalle, whose exploits stand out in such bold relief. He was born in Rouen, France, in 1643. His father was wealthy, but he renounced his patrimony on entering a college of the Jesuits, from which he separated and came to Canada a poor man in 1666. The priests of St. Sulpice, among whom he had a brother, were then the proprietors of Montreal, the nucleus of which was a seminar}^ or con- vent founded by that order. The Superior granted to LaSalle a large tract of land at LaChine, where he established himself in the fur trade. He was a man of daring genius, and outstripped all his competitors in exploits of travel and commerce with the Indians. In 1669, he visited the headquarters of the great Iroquois Confederacy, at Onondaga, in the heart of New York, and, obtaining guides, explored the Ohio River to the falls at Louisville. In order to understand the genius of LaSalle, it must be remembered that for many years prior to his time the missionaries and traders were obliged to make their way to the Northwest by the Ottawa River (of Canada) on account of the fierce hostility of the Iroquois along the lower lakes and Niagara River, which entirely closed this latter route to the Upper Lakes. They carried on their commerce chiefly b}^ canoes, pad- dling them through the Ottawa to Lake Nipissing, carrying them across the portage to French River, and descending that to Lake Huron. This being the route by wliich they reached the Northwest, accounts for the fact that all the earliest Jesuit missions were established in the neighbor- hood of the Upper Lakes. LaSalle conceived the grand idea of opening the route by Niagara River and the Lower Lakes to Canadian commerce by sail vessels, connecting it with the navigation of the Mississippi, and thus opening a magnificent water communication from the Gulf of St. Lawrence to the Gulf of Mexico. This truly grand and comprehensive purpose seems to have animated him in all his wonderful achievements and the matchless difficulties and hardships he surmounted. As the first step in the accomplishment of this object he established himself on Lake Ontario, and built and garrisoned Fort Frontenac, the site of the present HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLESTOIS. 17 city of Kingston, Canada. Here he obtained a grant of land from the French crown and a body of troops by which he beat back the invading Iroquois and cleared the passage to Niagara Falls. Having by this mas- terly stroke made it safe to attempt a hitherto untried expedition, his next step, as we have seen, was to advance to the Falls with all his outfit for building a ship with which to sail the lakes. He was success- ful in this undertaking, though his ultimate purpose was defeated by a strange combination of untoward circumstances. Tlie Jesuits evidently hated LaSalle and plotted against him, because he had abandoned them and co-operated with a rival order. The fur traders were also jealous of his superior success in opening new channels of commerce. At LaChine he had taken the trade of Lake Ontario, which but for his presence there would have gone to Quebec. While they were plodding with their bark canoes through the Ottawa he was constructing sailing vessels to com- mand the trade of the lakes and the Mississippi. These great plans excited the jealousy and envy of the small traders, introduced treason and revolt into the ranks of his own companions, and finally led to the foul assassination by which his great achievements were prematurely ended. In 1682, LaSalle, having completed his vessel at Peoria, descended the Mississippi to its confluence with the Gulf of Mexico. Erecting a standard on which he inscribed the arms of France, he took formal pos- session of the whole valley of the mighty river, in the name of Louis XIV., then reigning, in honor of whom he named the country Louisiana. LaSalle then went to France, was appointed Governor, and returned with a fleet and immigrants, for the purpose of planting a colony in Illi- nois. They arrived in due time in the Gulf of Mexico, but failing to find the mouth of the Mississippi, up which LaSalle intended to sail, his supply ship, with the immigrants, was driven ashore and wrecked on Matagorda Bay. With the fragments of the vessel he constructed a stockade and rude huts on the shore for the protection of the immigrants, calling the post Fort St. Louis. He then made a trip into New Mexico, in search of silver mines, but, meeting with disappointment, returned to find his little colony reduced to forty souls. He then resolved to travel on foot to Illinois, and, starting with his companions, had reached the valley of the Colorado, near the mouth of Trinity river, when he was shot by one of his men. This occurred on the 19th of March, 1687. Dr. J. W. Foster remarks of him : " Thus fell, not far from the banks of the Trinity, Robert Cavalier de la Salle, one of the grandest charac- ters that ever figured in American history — a man capable of originating the vastest schemes, and endowed with a will and a judgment capable of carrying tliem to successful results. Had ample facilities been placed by the King of France at his disposal, the result of the colonization of this continent might have been far different from what we now behold." ^ 18 HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. EARLY SETTLEMENTS. A temporary settlement was made at Fort St. Louis, or the old Kas- kaskia village, on the IHinois River, in what is now LaSalle County, in 1682. In 1690, this was removed, with the mission connected with it, to Kaskaskia, on the river of that name, emptjdng into the lower Mississippi in St. Clair County. Cahokia was settled about the same time, or at least, both of these settlements began in the year 1690, though it is now pretty well settled that Cahokia is the older place, and ranks as the oldest permanent settlement in Illinois, as well as in the Mississippi Valley. The reason for the removal of the old Kaskaskia settlement and mission, was probably because the dangerous and difficult route by Lake Michigan and the Chicago portage had been almost abandoned, and travelers and traders passed down and up the Mississippi by the Fox and Wisconsin River route. They removed to the vicinity of the Mississippi in order to be in the line of travel from Canada to Louisiana, that is, the lower part of it, for it was all Louisiana then south of the lakes. During the period of French rule in Louisiana, the population prob- ably never exceeded ten thousand, including whites and blacks. Within that portion of it now included in Indiana, trading posts were established at the principal Miami villages which stood on the head waters of the Maumee, the Wea villages situated at Ouiatenon, on the Wabash, and the Piankeshaw villages at Post Vincennes ; all of which were probably visited by French traders and missionaries before the close of the seven- teenth century. In the vast territory claimed by the French, many settlements of considerable importance had sprung up. Biloxi, on Mobile Bay, had been founded ])y DTberville, in 1699 ; Antoine de Lamotte Cadillac had founded Detroit in 1701 ; and New Orleans had been founded by Bien- ville, under the auspices of the Mississippi Company, in 1718. In Illi- nois also, considerable settlements had been made, so that in 1730 they embraced one hundred and fortv French families, about six hundred " con- verted Indians," and many traders and voyageurs. In that portion of the country, on the east side of the Mississippi, there were five distinct set- tlements, with their respective villages, viz.: Cahokia, near the mouth of Cahokia Creek and about five miles below the present city of St. Louis ; St. Philip, about forty-five miles below Cahokia, and four miles above Fort Chartres ; Fort Chartres, twelve miles above Kaskaskia ; Kaskaskia, situated on the Kaskaskia River, five miles above its conflu- ence with the Mississippi ; and Prairie du Rocher, near Fort Chartres. To these must be added St. Genevieve and St. Louis, on the west side of the Mississijjpi. These, with the exception of St. Louis, are among HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. 19 the oldest French towns in the Mississippi Valley. Kaskaskia, in its best days, was a town of some two or three thousand inhabitants. After it passed from the crown of France its population for many years did not exceed fifteen hundred. Under British rule, in 1773, the population had decreased to four hundred and fifty. As early as 1721, the Jesuits had established a college and a monastery in Kaskaskia. Fort Chartres was first built under the direction of the Mississippi Company, in 1718, by M. de Boisbraint, a military officer, under command of Bienville. It stood on the east bank of the Mississippi, about eighteen miles below Kaskaskia, and was for some time the headquarters of the military commandants of the district of Illinois. In the Centennial Oration of Dr. Fowler, delivered at Philadelphia, by appointment of Gov. Beveridge, we find some interesting facts with regard to the State of Illinois, which we appropriate in this history: In 1682 Illinois became a possession of the French crown, a depend- ency of Canada, and a part of Louisiana. In 1765 the English flag was run up on old Fort Chartres, and Illinois was counted among the treas- ures of Great Britain. In 1779 it was taken from the English by Col. George Rogers Clark. This man was resolute in nature, wise in council, prudent in policy, bold in action, and heroic in danger. Few men who have figured in the his- tory of America are more deserving than this colonel. Nothing short of first-class ability could have rescued Vincens and all Illinois from the English. And it is not possible to over-estimate the influence of this achievement upon the republic. In 1779 Illinois became a part of Vir- ginia. It was soon known as Illinois County. In 1784 Virginia ceded all this territory to the general government, to be cut into States, to be republican in form, with '^ the same right of sovereignty, freedom, and independence as the other States." In 1787 it was the object of the wisest and ablest legislation found in any merely human records. No man can study the secret history of THE " COMPACT OF 1787," and not feel that Providence was guiding with sleepless eye these unborn States. The ordinance that on July 13, 1787, finally became the incor- porating act, has a most marvelous history. Jefferson had vainly tried to secure a system of government for the northwestern territory. He was an emancipationist of that day, and favored the exclusion of slavery from the territory Virginia had ceded to the general government; but the South voted him down as often as it came up. In 1787, as late as July 10, an organizing act without the anti-slavery clause was pending. This concession to the South was expected to carry it. Congress was in 20 HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLDSrOIS. session in New York City. On July 5, Rev. Dr. Manasseh Cutler, o£ Massachusetts, came into New York to lobby on the northwestern terri- tory. Everything seemed to fall into his hands. Events were ripe. The state of the public credit, the growing of Southern prejudice, the basis of his mission, his personal character, all combined to complete one of those sudden and marvelous revolutions of public sentiment that once in five or ten centuries are seen to sweep over a country like the breath of the Almighty. Cutler was a graduate of Yale — received his A.M. from Harvard, and his D.D. from Yale. He had studied and taken degrees in the three learned professions, medicine, law, and divinity. He had thus America's best indorsement. He had published a scientific examination of the plants of New England. His name stood second only to that of Franklin as a scientist in America. He was a courtly gentle- man of the old style, a man of commanding presence, and of inviting face. The Southern members said they had never seen such a gentleman in the North. He came representing a company that desired to purchase a tract of land now included in Ohio, for the purpose of planting a colony. It was a speculation. Government money was worth eighteen cents on the dollar. This Massachusetts company had collected enough to pur- chase 1,500,000 acres of land. Other speculators in New York made Dr. Cutler their agent (lobbyist). On the 12th he represented a demand for 5,500,000 acres. This would reduce the national debt. Jefferson and Virginia were regarded as authority concerning the land Virginia had just ceded. Jefferson's policy wanted to provide for the public credit, and this was a good opportunity to do something. Massachusetts then owned the territorv of Maine, which she was crowding on the market. She was opposed to opening the northwestern region. This fired the zeal of Virginia. The South caught the inspira- tion, and all exalted Dr. Cutler. The English minister invited him to dine with some of the Southern gentlemen. He was the center of interest. The entire South rallied round him. Massachusetts could not vote against him, because many of the constituents of her members were interested personally in the western speculation. Thus Cutler, making friends with the South, and, doubtless, using all the arts of the lobby, was enabled to command the situation. True to deeper convictions, he dictated one of the most compact and finished documents of wise states- manship that has ever adorned any human law book. He borrowed from Jefferson the terra " Articles of Compact," which, preceding the federal constitution, rose into the most sacred character. He then followed very closely the constitution of Massachusetts, adopted three years before. Its most marked points were : 1. The exclusion of slavery from the territory forever. 2. Provision for public schools, giving one township for a seminary, HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. 21 and every section numbered 16 in each township ; that is, one-thirty-sixth of all the land, for public schools. 3. A provision prohibiting the adoption of any constitution or the enactment of any laAV that should nullify pre-existing contracts. Be it forever remembered that this compact declared that " Religion, morality, and knowledge being necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the means of education shall always be encouraged." Dr. Cutler planted himself on this platform and would not yield. Giving his unqualified declaration that it was that or nothing — that unless the}' could make the land desirable they did not want it — he took his horse and buggy, and started for the constitutional convention in Phila- delphia. On July 13, 1787, the bill was put upon its passage, and was unanimously adopted, every Southern member voting for it, and only one man, Mr. Yates, of New York, voting against it. But as the States voted as States, Yates lost his vote, and the compact was put beyond repeal. Thus the great States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and Wis- consin — a vast empire, the heart of the great valley — were consecrated to freedom, intelligence, and honesty. Thus the great heart of the nation was prepared for a year and a day and an hour. In the light of these eighty- nine years I affirm that this act was the salvation of the republic and the destruction of slavery. Soon the South saw their great blunder, and tried to repeal the compact. In 1803 Congress referred it to a committee of which John Randolph was chairman. He reported that this ordinance was a compact, and opposed repeal. Thus it stood a rock, in the way of the on-rushing sea of slavery. With all this timely aid it was, after all, a most desperate and pro- tracted struggle to keep the soil of Illinois sacred to freedom. It was the natural battle-field for the irrepressible conflict. In the southern end of the State slavery preceded the compact. It existed among the old French settlers, and was hard to eradicate. The southern part of the State was settled from the slave States, and this population brought their laws, customs, and institutions with them. A stream of population from the North poured into the northern part of the State. These sections misunderstood and hated each other perfectly. The Southerners regarded the Yankees as a skinning, tricky, penurious race of peddlers, filling the country with tinware, brass clocks, and wooden nutmegs. The North- erner thought of the Southerner as a lean, lank, lazy creature, burrowing in a hut, and rioting in whisky, dirt and ignorance. These causes aided in making the struggle long and bitter. So strong was the sympathy with slavery that, in spite of the ordinance of 1787, and in spite of the deed of cession, it was determined to allow the old French settlers to retain their slaves. Planters from the slave States might bring their 22 HISTORY OF THHR STATE OF ILLINOIS. slaves, if they would give them a chance to choose freedom or years of service and bondage for their children till they should become thirty years of age. If they chose freedom they must leave the State in sixt}^ days or be sold as fugitives. Servants were whipped for offenses for which white men are fined. Each lash paid forty cents of the fine. A neo-ro ten miles from home without a pass was whipped. These famous laws were imported from the slave States just as they imported laws for the inspection of flax and wool when there was neither in the State. These Black Laws are now wiped out. A vigorous effort was made to protect slavery in the State Constitution of 1817. It barely failed. It was renewed in 1825, when a convention was asked to make a new constitution. After a hard fight the convention was defeated. But slaves did not disappear from the census of the State until 1850. There were mobs and murders in the interest of slavery. Lovejoy was added to the list of martyrs — a sort of first-fruits of that long life of immortal heroes who saw freedom as the one supreme desire of their souls, and were so enamored of her that they preferred to die rather than survive her. The population of 12,282 that occupied the territory in A.D. 1800, increased to 45,000 in A.D. 1818, when the State Constitution was adopted, and Illinois took her place in the Union, with a star on the flag and two votes in the Senate. Shadrach Bond was the first Governor, and in his first message he recommended the construction of the Illinois and Michigan Canal. The simple economy in those days is seen in the fact that the entire bill for stationery for the first Legislature was onl}^ $13.50. Yet this simple body actually enacted a very superior code. There was no money in the territory before the war of 1812. Deer skins and coon skins were the circulating medium. In 1821, the Legis- lature ordained a State Bank on the credit of the State. It issued notes in the likeness of bank bills. These notes were made a legal tender for every thing, and the bank was ordered to loan to the people $100 on per- sonal security, and more on mortgages. They actually passed a resolu- tion requesting the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States to receive these notes for land. The old French Lieutenant Governor, Col. Menard, put the resolution as follows: "' Gentlemen of the Senate : It is moved and seconded dat de notes of dis hank be made land-office money. All in favor of dat motion say aye ; all against it say no. It is decided in de aflfirmative. Now, gentlemen, I bet you one hundred dollar he never be land-office money ! " Hard sense, like hard money, is always above par. This old Frenchman presents a fine figure up against the dark back- ground of most of his nation. They nuide no progress. They clung to their earliest and simplest implements. They never wore hats or caps. HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. 23 They pulled their blankets over their heads in the winter like the Indians, with whom they freely intermingled, Demag'ogism had an early development. One John Grammar (onlv in name), elected to the Territorial and State Legislatures of 181G and 1836, invented the policy of opposing every new thing, saying, " If it succeeds, no one will ask who voted against it. If it proves a failure, he could quote its record," In sharp contrast with Grammar was the char- acter of D. P. Cook, after whom the county containing Chicago was named. Such was his transparent integrity and remarkable ability that his will was almost the law of the State. In Congress, a young man, and from a poor State, he was made Chairman of the Ways tind Means Committee. He was pre-eminent for standing by his committee, regard- less of consequences. It was his integrity that elected John Quincy Adams to the Presidency. There were four candidates in 1824, Jackson, Clay, Crawford, and John Quincy Adams. There being no choice by the people, the election was thrown into the House. It was so balanced that it turned on his vote, and that he cast for Adams, electing him ; then went home to face the wrath of the Jackson party in Illinois. It cost liim all but character and greatness. It is a suggestive comment on the times, that there was no legal interest till 1830. It often reached 150 per cent., usually 50 per cent. Then it was reduced to 12, and now to 10 per cent. PHYSICAL FEATURES OF THE PRAIRIE STATE, In area. the State has 55,410 square miles of territor3^ It is about 150 miles wide and 400 miles long, stretching in latitude from Maine to North Carolina. It embraces wide variety of climate. It is tempered on the north by the great inland, saltless, tideless sea, which keeps the thermometer from either extreme. Being a table land, from 600 to 1,600 feet above the level of the sea, one is prepared to find on the health maps, prepared by the general government, an almost clean and perfect record. In freedom from fever and malarial diseases and consumptions, the three deadly enemies of the American Saxon, Illinois, as a State, stands without a superior. She furnishes one of the essential conditions of a great people — sound bodies. I suspect that this fact lies back of. that old Delaware word, Illini, superior men. The great battles of history that have been determinative of dynas- ties and destinies have been strategical battles, chiefly the question of position. Thermopylae has been the war-cry of freemen for twenty -four centuries. It only tells how much there may be in position. All this advantage belonos to Illinois. It is in the heart of the greatest vallev in the world, the vast region between the mountains — a valley that could 24 HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLENOIS. feed mankind for one thousand years. It is well on toward the center of the continent. It is in the great temperate belt, in which have been found nearly all the aggressive civilizations of history. It has sixty-five miles of frontage on the head of the lake. With the Mississippi forming the western and southern boundarv, with the Ohio runninsr alono^ the southeastern line, with the Illinois River and Canal dividing the State diagonally from the lake to the Lower Mississippi, and with the Rock and Wabash Rivers furnishing altogether 2,000 miles of water-front, con- necting with, and running through, in all about 12,000 miles of navi- gable water. But this is not all. These waters are made most available by the fact that the lake and the State lie on the ridge running into the great valley from the east. Within cannon-shot of the lake the water runs away from the lake to the Gulf. The lake now empties at both ends, one into the Atlantic and one into the Gulf of Mexico. The lake thus seems to hang over the land. This makes the dockage most serviceable ; there are no steep banks to damage it. Both lake and river are made for use. The climate varies from Portland to Richmond ; it favors every pro- duct of the continent, including the tropics, with less than half a dozen exceptions. It produces every great nutriment of the world except ban- anas and rice. It is hardly too much to say that it is the most productive spot known to civilization. With the soil full of bread and the earth full of minerals ; with an upper .surface of food and an under layer of fuel ; with perfect natural drainage, and abundant springs and streams and navigable rivers ; half way between the forests of the North and the fruits of the South ; within a day's ride of the great deposits of iron, coal, cop- per, lead, and zinc ; containing and controlling the great grain, cattle, pork, and lumber markets of the world, it is not strange that Illinois has the advantage of position. This advantage has been supplemented by the character of the popu- lation. In the early days when Illinois was first admitted to the Union, her population were cliiefly from Kentucky and Virginia. But, in the conflict of ideas concerning slavery, a strong tide of emigration came in from the East, and soon changed this composition. In 1870 her non- native population were from colder soils. New York furnished 133,290 ; Ohio gave 102,623 ; Pennsylvania sent on 98,352; the entire South gave us only 206,734. In all her cities, and in all her German and Scandina- vian and other foreign colonies, Illinois has only about one-fifth of her people of foreigji birth. HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ELLINOIS. 26 PROGRESS OF DEVELOPMENT. One of the greatest elements in the early development of Illinois is the Illinois and Michigan Canal, connecting the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers with the lakes. It was of the utmost importance to the State. It was recommended by Gov. Bond, the first governor, in his first message. In 1821, the Legislature appropriated $10,000 for surveying the route. Two bright young engineers surveyed it, and estimated the cost at 1600,000 or $700,000. It finally cost $8,000,000. In 1825, a law was passed to incorporate the Canal Company, but no stock was sold. In 1826, upon the solicitation of Cook, Congress gave 800,000 acres of land on the line of the work. In 1828, another law — commissioners appointed, and work commenced with new survey and new estimates. In 1834-35, George Farquhar made an able report on the whole matter. This was, doubtless, the ablest report ever made to a western legislature, and it became the model for subsequent reports and action. From this the work went on till it was finished in 1848. It cost the State a laro-e amount of money ; but it gave to the industries of the State an impetus that pushed it up into the first rank of greatness. It was not built as a speculation any more than a doctor is employed on a speculation. But it has paid into the Treasury of the State an average annual net sum of over $111,000. Pending the construction of the canal, the land and town-lot fever broke out in the State, in 1834-35. It took on the malignant type in Chicago, lifting the town up into a city. The disease spread over the entire State and adjoining States. It was epidemic. It cut up men's farms without regard to locality, and cut up the purses of the purchasers without regard to consequences. It is estimated that building lots enough were sold in Indiana alone to accommodate every citizen then in the United States. Towns and cities were exported to the Eastern market by the ship- load. There was no lack of buyers. Every up-ship came freighted with speculators and their money. This distemper seized upon the Legislature in 1836-37, and left not one to tell the tale. They enacted a system of internal improvement without a parallel in the grandeur of its conception. They ordered the construction of 1,300 miles of railroad, crossing the State in all direc- tions. This was surpassed by the river and canal improvements. There were a few counties not touched by either railroad or river or canal, and those were to be comforted and compensated by the free dis- tril)ution of $200,000 among them. To inflate this ])alloon beyond cre- dence it was ordered that work should be commenced on both ends of 26 HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. each of these railroads and rivers, and at each river-crossing, all at the same time. The appropriations for these vast improvements were over '$12,000,000, and commissioners were appointed to borrow the money on the credit of the State. Remember that all this was in the early days of railroading, when railroads were luxuries ; that the State had whole counties with scarcely a cabin ; and that the population of the State was less than 400,000, and you can form some idea of the vigor with which these brave men undertook the work of making a great State. In the light of history I am compelled to say that this was only a premature throb of the power that actually slumbered in the soil of the State. It was Hercules in the cradle. At this juncture the State Bank loaned its funds largely to Godfrey Gilman & Co., and to other leading houses, for the purpose of drawing trade from St. Louis to Alton. Soon they failed, and took down the bank with them. In 1840, all hope seemed gone. A population of 480,000 were loaded with a debt of $14,000,000. It had only six small cities, really only- towns, namely : Chicago, Alton, Springfield, Quincy, Galena, Nauvoo. This debt was to be cared for when there was not a dollar in the treas- ury, and when the State had borrowed itself out of all credit, and when there was not good money enough in the hands of all the people to pay the interest of the debt for a single year. Yet, in the presence of all these difficulties, the young State steadily refused to repudiate. Gov. Ford took hold of the problem and solved it, bringing the State through in triumph. Having touched lightly upon some of the more distinctive points in the history of the development of Illinois, let us next briefly consider the MATERIAL RESOURCES OF THE STATE. It is a garden four hundred miles long and one hundred and fifty miles wide. Its soil is chiefly a black sandy loam, from six inches to sixty feet thick. On the American bottoms it has been cultivated for one hundred and fifty years without renewal. About the old French towns it has yielded corn for a century and a half without rest or help. It produces nearly everything green in the temperate and tropical "zones. She leads all other States in the number of acres actually under plow. Her products from 25,000,000 of acres are incalculable. Her mineral wealth is scarcely second to her agricultural power. She has coal, iron, lead, copper, zinc, many varieties of building stone, fire clay, cuma clay, common brick clay, sand of all kinds, gravel, mineral paint — every thing needed for a higli civilization. Left to lierself, she has the elements of all greatness. The single item of coal is too vast for an appreciative HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. 27 handling in figures. We can handle it in general terms like algebraical signs, but long before we get up into the millions and i)illions the human mind drops down from comprehension to mere symbolic apprehension. When I tell you that nearly four-fifths of the entire State is under- laid with a deposit of coal more than forty feet thick on the average (now estimated, by recent surveys, at seventy feet thick), you can get some idea of its amount, as you do of the amount of the national debt. There it is ! 41,000 square miles — one vast mine into which you could put any of the States ; in which you could bury scores of European and ancient empires, and have room enough all round to work without know- ing that they had been sepulchered there. Put this vast coal-bed down by the other great coal deposits of the world, and its importance becomes manifest. Great Britain has 12,000 square miles of coal; Spain, 3,000; France, 1,719 ; Belgium, 578 ; Illinois about twice as many square miles as all combined. Virginia has 20,000 square miles ; Pennsylvania, 16,000 ; Ohio, 12,000. Illinois has 41,000 square miles. One-seventh of all the known coal on this continent is in Illinois. Could we sell the coal in this single State for one-seventh of one cent a ton it would pay the national debt. Converted into power, even with the wastage in our common engines, it would do more work than could be done by the entire race, beginning at Adam's wedding and working ten hours a day through all the centuries till the present time, and right on into the future at the same rate for the next 600,000 years. Great Britain uses enough mechanical power to-day to give to each man, woman, and child in the kingdom the help and service of nineteen untiring servants. No wonder she has leisure and luxuries. No wonder the home of the common artisan has in it more luxuries than could be found in the palace of good old King Arthur. Think, if you can conceive of it, of the vast army of servants that slumber in the soil of Illinois, impatiently awaiting the call of Genius to come forth to minister to our comfort. At the present rate of consumption England's coal supply will be exhausted in 250 years. When this is gone she must transfer her dominion either to the Indies, or to British America, which I would not resist ; or to some other people, which I would regret as a loss to civilization. COAL IS KING. At the same rate of consumption (which far exceeds our own) the deposit of coal in Illinois will last 120,000 years. And her kingdom shall be an everlasting kingdom. Let us turn now from this reserve power to the annwxl producta of 28 HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. the State. We shall not be humiliated in this field. Here we strike the secret of our national credit. Nature provides a market in the constant appetite of the race. Men must eat, and if we can furnish the provisions we can command the treasure. All that a man hath will he give for his hfe. According- to the last census Illinois produced 30,000,000 of bushels- of wheat. That is more wheat than was raised by any other State in the Union. She raised last year 130,000,000 of bushels of corn — twice as much as any other State, and one-sixth of all the corn raised in the United States. She harvested 2,747,000 tons of hay, nearly one-tenth of all the hay in the Republic. It is not generally appreciated, but it is true, that the ha}'^ crop of the country is worth more than the cotton crop. The hay of Illinois equals the cotton of Louisiana. Go to Charleston, S. C, and see them peddling handfuls of hay or grass, almost as a curiosity, as we regard Chinese gods or the cryolite of Greenland ; drink your coffee and condensed milk ; and walk back from the coast for many a league through the sand and burs till you get up into the better atmos- phere of tlie mountains, without seeing a waving meadow or a grazing herd ; then you will begin to appreciate the meadows of the Prairie State, where the grass often grows sixteen feet high. The value of her farm implements is $211,000,000, and the value of her live stock is only second to the great State of New York. Last year she had 25,000,000 hogs, and packed 2,113,845, about one-half of all that were packed in the United States. This is no insignificant item. Pork is a growing demand of the old world. Since the laborers of Europe have gotten a taste of our bacon, and we have learned how to pack it dry in boxes, like dry goods, the world has become the market. The hog is on the march into the future. His nose is ordained to uncover the secrets of dominion, and his feet shall be guided by the star of empire. Illinois marketed $57,000,000 worth of slaughtered animals — more than any other State, and a seventh of all the States. Be patient with me, and pardon my pride, and I will give you a list of some of the things in which Illinois excels all other States. Depth and richness of soil ; per cent, of good ground ; acres of improved land ; large farms — some farms contain from 40,000 to 60,000 acres of cultivated land, 40,000 acres of corn on a single farm ; number of farmers ; amount of wheat, corn, oats and honey produced ; value of ani- mals for slaughter ; number of hogs ; amount of pork ; number of horses — three times as many as Kentucky, the horse State. Illinois excels all other States in miles of railroads and in miles of postal service, and in money orders sold per annum, and in the amount of lumber sold in her markets. HISTORY OF THE STATE OP ILLINOIS. 29 Illinois is only second in many important matters. This sample list comprises a few of the more important : Permanent school fund (good for a young state) ; total income for educational purposes ; number of pub- lishers of books, maps, papers, etc.; value of farm products and imple- ments, and of live stock ; in tons of coal mined. The shipping of Illinois is only second to New York. Out of one port during the business hours of the season of navigation she sends forth a vessel every ten minutes. This does not include canal boats, which go one every five minutes. No wonder she is only second in number of bankers and brokers or in physicians and surgeons. She is third in colleges, teachers and schools ; cattle, lead, hay, flax, sorghum and beeswax. She is fourth in population, in children enrolled in public schools, in law schools, in butter, potatoes and carriages. She is fifth in value of real and personal property, in theological seminaries and colleges exclusively for women, in milk sold, and in boots and shoes manufactured, and in book-binding. She is only seventh in the production of wood, while she is the twelfth in area. Surely that is well done for the Prairie State. She now has much more wood and growing timber than she had thirty years ago. A few leading industries will justify emphasis. She manufactures $205,000,000 worth of goods, which places her well up toward New York and Pennsylvania. The number of her manufacturing establishments increased from 1860 to 1870, 300 per cent.; capital employed increased 350 per cent,, and the amount of product increased 400 per cent. She issued 5,500,000 copies of commercial and financial newspapers — only second to New York. She has 6,759 miles of railroad, thus leading all other States, worth $636,458, 000, using 3,245 engines, and 67,712 cars, making a train Ions enouoh to cover one-tenth of the entire roads of the State. Her stations are only five miles apart. She carried last year 15,795,000 passen- gers, an average of 36^^ miles, or equal to taking her entire population twice across the State. More than two-thu-ds of her land is within five miles of a railroad, and less than two per cent, is more than fifteen miles away. The State has a large financial interest in the Illinois Central railroad. The road was incorporated in 1850, and the State gave each alternate sec- tion for six miles on each side, and doubled the price of the remaining land, so keeping herself good. The road received 2,595,000 acres of land, and pays to the State one-seventh of the gross receipts. The State receives this year $350,000, and has received in all about $7,000,000. It is practically the people's road, and it has a most able and gentlemanly management. Add to this the annual receipts from the canal, $111,000, and a large per cent, of the State tax is provided for. 30 mSTOKY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. THE RELIGION AND MORALS of the State keep step with her productions and growth. She was born of the missionary spirit. It was a minister who secured for her the ordi- nance of 1787, by which she has been saved from slavery, ignorance, and dishonesty. Rev. Mr. Wiley, pastor of a Scotch congregation in Randolph County, petitioned the Constitutional Convention of 1818 to recognize Jesus Christ as king, and the Scriptures as the only necessary guide and book of law. The convention did not act in the case, and the old Cove- nanters refused to accept citizenship. They never voted until 1824, when the slavery question was submitted to the people ; then they all voted against it and cast the determining votes. Conscience has predominated whenever a great moral question has been submitted to the people. But little mob violence has ever been felt in the State. In 1817 regulators disposed of a band of horse-thieves that infested the territory. The Mormon indignities finally awoke the same spirit. Alton was also the scene of a pro-slavery mob, in which Lovejoy was added to the list of martyrs. The moral sense of the people makes the law supreme, and gives to the State unruffled peace. With $22,300,000 in church property, and 4,298 church organizations, the State has that divine police, the sleepless patrol of moral ideas, that alone is able to secure perfect safety. Conscience takes the knife from the assassin's hand and the bludgeon from the grasp of the highwayman. We sleep in safety, not because we are behind bolts and bars — these only fence against the innocent ; not because a lone officer drowses on a distant corner of a street ; not because a sheriff may call his posse from a remote part of the county ; but because conscience guards the very portals of the air and stirs in the deepest recesses of the public mind. This spirit issues within the State 9,500,000 copies of religious papers annually, and receives still more from withowt. Thus the crime of the State is only one-fourth that of New York and one-half that of Pennsylvania. Illinois never had but one duel between her own citizens. In Belle- ville, in 1820, Alphonso Stewart and William Bennett arranged to vindi- cate injured honor. The seconds agreed to make it a sham, and make them shoot blanks. Stewart was in the secret. Bennett mistrusted some- thing, and, unobserved, slipped a bullet into his gun and killed Stewart. He then fled the State. After two years he was caught, tried, convicted, and, in spite of friends and political aid, was hung. This fixed the code of honor on a Christian basis, and terminated its use in Illinois. The early preachers were ignorant men, who were accounted eloquent according to the strength of their voices. But they set the style for all public speakers. Lawyers and political speakers followed this rule. Gov. HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. SI Ford says: "Nevertheless, these first preachers were of incalculable benefit to the country. They inculcated justice and morality. To them are we indebted for the first Christian character of the Protestant portion of the people." In education Illinois surpasses her material resources. The ordinance of 1787 consecrated one thirty-sixth of her soil to common schools, and the law of 1818, the first law that went upon her statutes, gave three per cent, of all the rest to EDUCATION INSTEAD OF HIGHWAYS. The old compact secures this interest forever, and by its yoking morality and intelligence it precludes the legal interference with the Bible in the public schools. With such a start it is natural that we should have 11,050 schools, and that our illiteracy should be less than New York or Pennsylvania, and only about one-half of Massachusetts. We are not to blame for not having more than one-half as many idiots as the great States. These public schools soon made colleges inevitable. The first college, still flourishing, was started in Lebanon in 1828, by the M. E. church, and named after Bishop McKendree. Illinois College, at Jackson- ville, supported by the Presbyterians, followed in 1830. In 1832 the Bap- tists built Shurtleff College, at Alton. Then the Presbyterians built Knox College, at Galesburg, in 1838, and the Episcopalians built Jubilee College, at Peoria, in 1847. After these early years colleges have rained down. A settler could hardly encamp on the prairie but a college would spring up by his wagon. The State now has one very well endowed and equipped university, namely, the Northwestern University, at Evanston, with six colleges, ninety instructors, over 1,000 students, and $1,500,000 endow- ment. Rev. J. M. Peck was the first educated Protestant minister in tne State. He settled at Rock Spring, in St. Clair County, 1820, and left his impress on the State. Before 1837 only party papers were published, but Mr. Peck published a Gazetteer of Illinois. Soon after John Russell, of BluflFdale, published essays and tales showing genius. Judge James Hall published' The Illinois Monthly Magazine with great ability, and an annual called The Western Souvenir^ which gave him an enviable fame all over the United States. From these beginnings Illinois has gone on till she has more volumes in public libaaries even than Massachusetts, and of the 44,500,000 volumes in all the public libraries of the United States, she has one-thirteenth. In newspapers she stands fourth. Her increase is marvelous. In 1850 she issued 5,000,000 copies; in 1860, 27,590,000 ; in 1870, 113,140,000. In 1860 she had eighteen colleges and seminaries ; in 1870 she had eighty. That is a grand advance for the war decade. This brings us to a record unsurpassed in the history of any age, 32 HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. THE WAR RECORD OF ILLINOIS. I hardly know where to begin, or how to advance, or what to say. I can at best give you only a broken synopsis of her deeds, and you must put Them in the order of glory for yourself. Her sons have always been foremost on fields of danger. In 1832-33, at the call of Gov. Reynolds, her sons drove Blackhawk over the Mississippi. When the Mexican war came, in May, 1846, 8,370 men offered them- selves when only 3,720 could be accepted. The fields of Buena Vista and Vera Cruz, and the storming of Cerro Gordo, will carry the glory of Illinois soldiers along after the infamy of the cause they served has been forgotten. But it was reserved till our day for her sons to £nd a field and cause and foemen that could fitly illustrate their spirit and heroism. Illinois put into her own regiments for the United States government 256,000 men, and into the armv through other States enough to swell the number to 290,000. This far exceeds all the soldiers of' the federal government in all the war of the revolution. Her total years of service were over 600,000. She enrolled men from eighteen to fort}" -five years of age when the law of Congress in 1861 — the test time — only asked for those from twenty to forty-five. Her enrollment was otherwise excessive. Her people wanted to go, and did not take the pains to correct the enrollment. Thus the basis of fixing the quota was too great, and then the quota itself, at least in the trying time, was far above any other State. Thus the demand on some counties, as Monroe, for example, took every able-bodied man in the county, and then did not have enough to fill the quota. Moreover, Illinois sent 20,814 men for ninety or one hundred days, for whom no credit was asked. When Mr. Lincoln's attention was called to the inequality of the quota compared with other States, he replied, " The country needs the sacrifice. We must put the whip on the free horse."' In spite of all these disadvantages Illinois gave to the country 73,000 y'ears of service above all calls. With one-thirteenth of the popu- lation of the loyal States, she sent regularly one-tenth of all the soldiers, and in the peril of the closing calls, when patriots were few and weary, she then sent one-eighth of all that were called for by her loved and hon- ored son in the white house. Her mothers and daughters went into the fields to raise the grain and keep the children together, while the fathers and older sons went to the harvest fields of the world. I knew a father and four sons who agreed that one of them must stay at home ; and they pulled straws from a stack to see who might go. The father was left. The next day he came into the camp, saying : " Mother says she can get the crops in, and I am going, too." I know large Methodist churches from which every male member went to the army. Do you want to know HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. 33 what these heroes from Illinois did in the field ? Ask any soldier with a good record of his own, who is thus able to judge, and he will tell you that the Illinois men went in to win. It is common history that the greater victories were won in the West. When everything ^else looked dark Illi- nois was gaining victories all down the river, and dividing the confederacy. Sherman took with him on his great march forty-five regiments of Illinois infantry, three companies of artillery, and one company of cavahy. He could not avoid GOING TO THE SEA. If he had been killed, I doubt not the men would have gone right on. Lincoln answered all rumors of Sherman's defeat with, " It is impossible ; there is a mighty sight of fight in 100,000 Western men." Illinois soldiers brought home 300 battle-flags. The first United States flag that floated over Richmond was an Illinois flag. She sent messengers and nurses to ever}'- field and hospital, to care for her sick and wounded sons. She said, '■ These suffering ones are my sons, and I will care for them." When individuals had given all, then cities and town's came forward with their credit to the extent of many millions, to aid these men and their families. Illinois gave the country the great general of the war — Ulysses S. Grant — since honored with two terms of the Presidency of the United States. One other name from Illinois comes up in all minds, embalmed in all hearts, that must have the supreme place in this story of our glory and of our nation's honor ; that name is Abraham Lincoln, of Illinois. The analysis of Mr. Lincoln's character is diflicult on account of its symmetry. In this age we look with admiration at his uncompromising honesty. And well we may, for this saved us. Thousands throughout the length and breadth of our country who knew him only as " Honest Old Abe," voted for him on that account ; and wisely did they choose, for no other man could have carried us through the fearful night of the war. When his plans were too vast for our comprehension, and his faith in the cause too sublime for our participation ; Avhen it was all night about us, and all dread before us, and all sad and desolate behind us ; when not one ray shone upon our cause ; when traitors were haughty and exultant at the South, and fierce and blasphemous at the North ; when the loyal men here seemed almost in the minority ; when the stoutest heart quailed, the bravest cheek paled ; when generals were defeating each other for place, and contractors were leeching out the very heart's blood of the prostrate republic : when every thing else had failed us, we looked at this calm, patient man standing like a rock in the storm, and said : " Mr. Lincoln 34 HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINGIS. is honest, and we can trust him still." Holding to this single point with the energy of faith and despair we held .together, and, under God, he brought us through to victory. His practical wisdom made him the wonder of all lands. With such certainty did Mr. Lincoln follow causes to their ultimate effects, that his foresight of contingencies seemed almost prophetic. He is radiant with all the great virtues, and his memory shall shed a glory upon this age that shall fill the eyes of men as they look into his- tory. Other men have excelled him in some point, but, taken at all points, all in all, he stands head and shoulders above every other man of 6,000 years. An administrator, he saved the nation in the perils of unparalleled civil war. A statesman, he justified his measures by their success. A philanthropist, he gave liberty to one race and salvation to another. A moralist, he bowed from the summit of human power to the foot of the Cross, and became a Christian. A mediator, he exercised mercy under the most absolute abeyance to law. A leader, he was no partisan. A commander, he was untainted with blood. A ruler in desperate times, he was unsullied with crime. A man, he has left no word of passion, no thought of malice, no trick of craft, no act of jealousy, no purpose of selfish ambition. Thus perfected, without a model, and without a peer, he was dropped into these troubled years to adorn and embellish all that is good and all that is great in our humanity, and to present to all coming time the representative of the divine idea of free government. It is not too much to say that away down in the future, when the republic has fallen from its niche in the wall of time ; when the great war itself shall have faded out in the distance like a mist on the horizon ; when the Anglo-Saxon language shall be spoken only by the tongue of the stranger ; then the generations looking this way shall see the great president as the supreme figure in this vortex of history CHICAGO. It is impossible in our brief space to give more than a meager sketch of such a city as Chicago, which is in itself the greatest marvel of the Prairie State. This mysterious, majestic, mighty city, born first of water, and next of fire; sown in weakness, and raised in power ; planted among the willows of the marsh, and crowned with the glory of the mountains ; sleeping on the bosom of the prairie, and rocked on the bosom of the sea ; the youngest city of the world, and still the eye of the prairie, as Damas- cus, the oldest city of the world, is the eye of the desert. With a com- merce far exceeding that of Corinth on her isthmus, in the highway to the East ; with the defenses of a continent piled around her by the thou- sand miles, making her far safer than Rome on the banks of the Tiber ; HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. 35 with schools eclipsing Alexandria and Athens ; with liberties more con- spicuous than those of the old, republics ; with a heroism equal to the first Carthage, and with a sanctity scarcel}' second to that of Jerusalem — set your thoughts on all this, lifted into the eyes of all men by the miracle of its growth, illuminated by the flame of its fall, and transfigured by the divinity of its resurrection, and you will feel, as I do, the utter impossi- bility of compassing this subject as it deserves. Some impression of her importance is received from the shock her burning gave to the civilized world. When the doubt of her calamity was removed, and the horrid fact was accepted, there went a shudder over all cities, and a quiver over all lands. There was scarcely a town in the civilized world that did not shake on the brink of this opening chasm. The flames of our homes red- dened all skies. The city was set upon a hill, and could not be hid. All eyes were turned upon it. To have struggled and suffered amid the scenes of its fall is as distinguishing as to have fought at Thermopylae, or Salamis, or Hastings, or Waterloo, or Bunker Hill. Its calamity amazed the world, because it was felt to be the common property of mankind. The early history of the city is full of interest, just as the early his- tory of such a man as Washington or Lincoln becomes public property, and is cherished by every patriot. Starting with 560 acres in 1833, it embraced and occupied 23,000 acres in 1869, and, having now a population of more than 500,000, it com- mands general attention. The first settler — Jean Baptiste Pointe au Sable, a mulatto from the West Indies — came and began trade with the Indians in 1796. John Kinzie became his successor in 1804, in which year Fort Dearborn was erected. A mere trading-post was kept here from that time till about the time of the Blackhawk war, in 1832. It was not the city. It was merel}^ a cock crowing at midnight. The morning was not yet. In 1833 the set- tlement about the fort was incorporated as a town. The voters were divided on the propriety of such corporation, twelve voting for it and one against it. Four years later it was incorporated as a city, and embraced 660 acres. The produce handled in this city is an indication of its power. Grain and flour were imported from the East till as late as 1837. The first exportation by way of experiment was in 1839. Exports exceeded imports first in 1842. The Board of Trade was organized in 1848, but it was so weak that it needed nursing till 1855. Grain was purchased by the wagon-load in the street. I remember sitting with my father on a load of wheat, in the long 36 HISTORY OF THE STATE OP ILLINOIS. line of wagons along Lake street, while the buyers came and untied the bags, and examined the grain, and made their bids. That manner of business had to cease with the day of small things. Now our elevators will hold 15,000,000 bushels of grain. The cash value of the produce handled in a year is 8215,000,000, and the produce weighs 7,000,000 tons or 700,000 car loads. This handles thirteen and a half ton each minute, all the year round. One tenth of all the wheat in the United States is handled in Chicago. Even as long ago as 1853 the receipts of grain in Chicago exceeded those of the goodly city of St. Louis, and in 1854 the exjjorts of grain from Chicago exceeded those of New York and doubled those of St. Petersburg, Archangel, or Odessa, the largest grain markets in Europe. The manufacturing interests of the city are not contemptible. In 1873 manufactories employed 45,000 operatives ; in 1876, 60,000. The manufactured product in 1875 was worth $177,000,000. No estimate of the size and power of Chicago would be adequate that did not put large emphasis on the railroads. Before they came thundering along our streets canals were the hope of our country. But who ever thinks now of traveling by canal packets ? In June, 1852, there were only forty miles of railroad connected with the city. The old Galena division of the Northwestern ran out to Elgin. But now, who can count the trains and measure the roads that seek a terminus or connection in this city ? The lake stretches away to the north, gathering in to this center all the harvests that might otherwise pass to the north of us. If you will take a map and look at the adjustment of railroads, you will see, first, that Chicago is the great railroad center of the world, as New York is the commercial city of this continent ; and, second, that the railroad lines form the iron spokes of a great wheel whose hub is this cit3\ The lake furnishes the only break in the spokes, and this seems simply to have pushed a few spokes together on each shore. See the eighteen trunk lines, exclusive of eastern connections. Pass round the circle, and view their numbers and extent. There is the great Northwestern, with all its branches, one branch creeping along the lake shore, and so reaching to the north, into the Lake Superior regions, away to the right, and on to the Northern Pacific on the left, swinging around Green Bay for iron and copper and silver, twelve months in the year, and reaching out for the wealth of the great agricultural belt and isothermal line traversed by the Northern Pacific. Another branch, not so far north, feeling for the heart of the Badger State. Another pushing lower down the Mississippi — all these make many con- nections, and tapping all the vast wheat regions of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and all the regions this side of sunset. There is that elegant road, the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, running out a goodly number of HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. 87 branches, and reaping the great fields this side of the Missouri River. I can only mention the Chicago, Alton & St. Louis, our Illinois Central, described elsewhere, and the Chicago & Rock Island. Further around we come to the lines connecting us with all the eastern cities. The Chicago, Indianapolis & St. Louis, the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne & Chicago, the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern, and the Michigan Cen- tral and Great Western, give us many highways to the seaboard. Thus we reach the Mississippi at five points, from St. Paul to Cairo and the Gulf itself by two routes. We also reach Cincinnati and Baltimore, and Pitts- burgh and Philadelphia, and New York. North and south run the water courses of the lakes and the rivers, broken just enough at this point to make a pass. Through this, from east to west, run the long lines that stretch from ocean to ocean. This is the neck of the glass, and the golden sands of commerce must pass into our hands. Altogether we have more than 10,000 miles of railroad, directl}^ tributary to this city, seeking to unload their wealth in our coffers. All these roads have come themselves by the infallible instinct of capital. Not a dollar was ever given by the city to secure one of them, and only a small per cent, of stock taken originally by her citizens, and that taken simply as an investment. Coming in the natural order of events, they will not be easily diverted. . There is still another showing to all this. The connection between New York and San Francisco is by the middle route. This passes inevit- ablv through Chicago. St. Louis wants the Southern Pacific or Kansas Pacific, and pushes it out through Denver, and so on up to Cheyenne. But before the road is fairly under way, the Chicago roads shove out to Kansas City, making even the Kansas Pacific a feeder, and actually leav- ing St. Louis out in the cold. It is not too much to expect that Dakota, Montana, and Washington Territory will find their great market in Chi- cago. But these are not all. Perhaps I had better notice here the ten or fifteen new roads that have just entered, or are just entering, our city. Their names are all that is necessary to give. Chicago & St. Paul, look- ing up the Red River country to the British possessions ; the Chicago, Atlantic & Pacific ; the Chicago, Decatur & State Line ; the Baltimore & Ohio; the Chicago, Danville & Vincennes; the Chicago & LaSalle Rail- road ; the Chicago, Pittsburgh & Cincinnati ; the Chicago and Canada Southern ; the Chicago and Illinois River Railroad. These, with their connections, and with the new connections of the old roads, already in process of erection, give to Chicago not less than 10,000 miles of new tributaries from the richest land on the continent. Thus there will be added to the reserve power, to the capital within reach of this city, not less than $1,000,000,000. 38 HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. Add to all this transporting power the ships that sail one every nine minutes of the business hours of the season of navigation ; add, also, the canal boats that leave one every five minutes during the same time — and you will see something of the business of the city. THE COMMERCE OF THIS CITY has been leaping along to keep pace with the growth of the country around us. In 1852, our commerce reached the hopeful sum of 120,000,000. In 1870 it reached 1100,000,000. In 1871 it was pushed up above $450,000,000. And in 1875 it touched nearly double that. One-half of our imported goods come directly to Chicago. Grain enough is exported directly from our docks to the old world to employ a semi-weekly line of steamers of 3,000 tons capacity. This branch is not likely to be greatly developed. Even after the great Welland Canal is completed we shall have only fourteen feet of water. The great ocean vessels will continue to control the trade. The banking capital of Chicago is $24,431,000. Total exchange in 1875, $659,000,000. Her wholesale business in 1875 was $294,000,000. The rate of taxes is less than in an}'" other great city. The schools of Chicago are unsurpassed in America. Out of a popu- lation of 300,000 there were only 186 persons between the ages of six and twenty-one unable to read. This is the best known record. In 1831 the mail system was condensed into a half-breed, who went on foot to Niles, Mich., once in two weeks, and brought back what papers and news he could find. As late as 1846 there was often only one mail a week. A post-ofi&ce was established in Chicago in 1833, and the post- master nailed up old boot-legs on one side of his shop to serve as boxes for the nabobs and literary men. It is an interesting fact in the growth of the young city that in the active life of the business men of that day the mail matter has grown to a daily average of over 6,500 pounds. It speaks equally well for the intelligence of the people and the commercial importance of the place, that the mail matter distributed to the territory immediately tributary to Chicago is seven times greater than that distributed to the territory immediately tributary to St. Louis. The improvements that have characterized the city are as startling as the city itself. In 1831, Mark Beaubien established a ferry over the river, and put himself under bonds to carry all the citizens free for the privilege of charging strangers. Now there are twenty-four large bridges and two tunnels. In 1833 the government expended $30,000 on the harbor. Then commenced that series of manoeuvers with the river that has made it one HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. 39 of the world's curiosities. It used to wind around in the lower end of the town, and make its way rippling over the sand into the lake at the foot of Madison street. They took it up and put it down where it now is. It was a narrow stream, so narrow that even moderately small crafts had to go up through the willows and cat's tails to the point near Lake street bridge, and back up one of the branches to get room enough in which to turn around. In 1844 the quagmires in the streets were first pontooned by plank roads, which acted in wet weather as public squirt-guns. Keeping you out of the mud, they compromised by squirting the mud over you. The wooden-block pavements came to Chicago in 1857. In 1840 water was delivered by peddlers in carts or by hand. Then a twenty-five horse- power engine pushed it through hollow or bored logs along the streets till 1854, when it was introduced into the houses by new works. The first fire-engine was used in 1835, and the first steam fire-engine in 1859. Gas was utilized for lighting the city in 1850. The Young Men's Chris- tian Association was organized in 1858, and horse railroads carried them to their work in 1859. The museum was opened in 1863. The alarm telegraph adopted in 1864. The opera-house built in 1865. The city grew from 560 acres in 1833 to 23,000 in 1869. In 1834, the taxes amounted to $48.90, and the trustees of the town borrowed $60 more for opening and improving streets. In 1835, the legislature authorized a loan of $2,000, and the treasurer and street commissioners resigned rather than plunge the town into such a gulf. Now the city embraces 36 square miles of territory, and has 30 miles of water front, besides the outside harbor of refuge, of 400 acres, inclosed by a crib sea-wall. One-third of the city has been raised up an average of eight feet, giving good pitch to the 263 miles of sewerage. The water of the city is above all competition. It is received through two tunnels extending to a crib in the lake two miles from shore. The closest analy- sis fails to detect any impurities, and, received 35 feet below the surface, it is always clear and cold. The first tunnel is five feet two inches in diameter and two miles long, and can deliver 50,000,000 of gallons per day. The second tunnel is seven feet in diameter and six miles long, running four miles under the city, and can deliver 100,000,000 of gal- lons per day. This water is distributed through 410 miles of water- mains. The three grand engineering exploits of the city are : First, lifting the city up on jack-screws, whole squares at a time, without interrupting the business, thus giving us good drainage ; second, running the tunnels under the lake, giving us the best water in the world ; and third, the turning the current of the river in its own channel, delivering us from the old abominations, and making decency possible. They redound about 40 HISTORY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. equally to the creclii of the engineering, to the energy of the people, and to the health of the city. That which really constitutes the city, its indescribable spirit, its soul, the way it lights ^ip in every feature in the hour of action, has not been touched. In meeting strangers, one is often surprised how some homely women marry so well. Their forms are bad, their gait uneven and awk- ward, their complexion is dull, their features are misshapen and mismatch- ed, and when we see them there is no beauty that we should desire them. But when once they are aroused on some subject, the}' put on new pro- portions. They light up into great power. The real person comes out from its unseemly ambush, and captures us at will. They have power. They have ability to cause things to come to pass. We no longer wonder why they are in such high demand. So it is with our city. There is no grand scenery except the two seas, one of water, the other of prairie. Nevertheless, there is a spirit about it, a push, a breadth, a power, that soon makes it a place never to be forsaken. One soon ceases to believe in impossibilities. Balaams are the only prophets that are disappointed. The bottom that has been on the point of falling out has been there so long that it has grown fast. It can not fall out. It has all the capital of the world itching to get inside the corporation. The two great laws that govern the growth and size of cities are, first, the amount of territory for which they are the distributing and receiving points ; second, the number of medium or moderate dealers that do this distributing. Monopolists build up themselves, not the cities. They neither eat, wear, nor live in proportion to their business. Both these laws help Chicago. The tide of trade is eastward — not up or down the map, but across the map. The lake runs up a wingdam for 500 miles to gather in the business. Commerce can not ferry up there for seven months in the year, and the facilities for seven months can do the work for twelve. Then the great region west of us is nearly all good, productive land. Dropping south into the trail of St. Louis, you fall into vast deserts and rocky dis- tricts, useful in holding the world together. St. Louis and Cincinnati, instead of rivaling and hurting Chicago, are her greatest sureties of dominion. They are far enough away to give sea-room, — farther off than Paris is from London, — and yet they are near enough to prevent the springing up of any other great city between them. St. Louis will be helped by the opening of the Mississippi, but also hurt. That will put New Orleans on her feet, and with a railroad running over into Texas and so West, she will tap the streams that now crawl up the Texas and Missouri road. The current is East, not North, and a sea- port at New Orleans can not permanently help St. Louis. Chicago is in the field almost alone, to handle the wealth of one- HISTORY OF THE STATE OP ILLINOIS. 41 fourth of the territory of this great republic. This strip of seacoast divides its margins between Portland, Boston, New York, Philadelpliia, Baltimore and Savannah, or some other great port to be created for the South in the next decade. But Chicago has a dozen einjpires casting their treasures into her lap. On a bed of coal that can run all the machinery of the world for 500 centuries ; in a garden that can feed the race by the thousand years; at the head of the lakes that give her a temperature as a summer resort equaled by no great city in the land ; with a climate that insures the health of her citizens ; surrounded by all the great deposits of natural wealth in mines and forests and herds, Chicago is the wonder of to-day, and will be the city of the future. MASSACRE AT FORT DEARBORN. During the war of 1812, Fort Dearborn became the theater of stirring events. The garrison consisted of fifty-four men under command of Captain Nathan Heald, assisted by Lieutenant Helm (son-in-law of Mrs. Kinzie) and Ensign Ronan. Dr. Voorhees was surgeon. The only resi- dents at the post at that time were the wives of Captain Heald and Lieu- tenant Helm, and a few of the soldiers, Mr. Kinzie and his family, and a few Canadian voyageurs, with their wives and children. The soldiers and Mr. Kinzie were on most friendly terms with the Pottawattamies and Winnebagos, the principal tribes around them, but they could not win them from their attachment to the British. One evening in April, 1812, Mr. Kinzie sat playing on his violin and his children were dancino: to the music, when Mrs. Kinzie came rushingr into the house, pale with terror, and exclaiming: "The Indians! the Indians!" "What? Where?" eagerly inquired Mr. Kinzie. "Up at Lee's, killing and scalping," answered the frightened mother, who, when the alarm was given, was attending Mrs. Barnes (just confined) living not far off. Mr. Kinzie and his family crossed the river and took refuge in the fort, to which place Mrs. Barnes and her infant not a day old were safely conveyed. The rest of the inhabitants took shelter in the fort. This alarm was caused by a scalping party of Winnebagos, who hovered about the fort several days, when they disappeared, and for several weeks the inhabitants were undisturbed. On the 7th of August, 1812, General Hull, at Detroit, sent orders to Captain Heald to evacuate Fort Dearborn, and to distribute all the United States property to the Indians in the neighborhood — a most insane order. The Pottawattamie chief, who brought the dispatch, had more wisdom than the commanding general. He advised Captain Heald not to make the distribution. Said he : " Leave the fort and stores as they are, and let the Indians make distribution for themselves ; and while they are engaged in the business, the white people may escape to Fort Wayne." 42 HISTORY OF THE STATE OP ILLINOIS. Captain Heald held a council with the Indians on the afternoon of the 12th, in which his ofi&cers refused to join, for they had been informed that treachery was designed — ^that the Indians intended to murder the white people in the council, and then destroy those in the fort. Captain Heald, however, took the precaution to open a port-hole displaying a cannon pointing directly upon the council, and by that means saved his life. Mr. Kinzie, who knew the Indians well, begged Captain Heald not to confide in their promises, nor distribute the arms and munitions among them, for it would only put power into their hands to destroy the whites. Acting upon this advice, Heald resolved to withhold the munitions of war ; and on the night of the 13th, after the distribution of the other property had been made, the powder, ball and liquors were thrown into the river, the muskets broken up and destroyed. Black Partridge, a friendly chief, came to Captain Heald, and said : " Linden birds have been singing in my ears to-day: be careful on the march you are going to take." On that dark night vigilant Indians had crept near the fort and discovered the destruction of their promised booty going on within. The next morning the powder was seen floating on the surface of the river. The savages were exasperated and made loud com- plaints and threats. On the following day when preparations were making to leave the fort, and all the inmates were deeply impressed with a sense of impend- ing danger, Capt. Wells, an uncle of Mrs. Heald, was discovered upon the Indian trail among the sand-hills on the borders of the lake, not far distant, with a band of motinted Miamis, of whose tribe he vyas chief, having been adopted by the famous Miami warrior. Little Turtle. When news of Hull's surrender reached Fort Wayne, he had started with this force to assist Heald in defending Fort Dearborn. He was too late. Every means for its defense had been destroyed the night before, and arrangements were made for leaving the fort on the morning of the loth. It was a warm bright morning in the middle of August. Indications were positive that the savages intended to murder the white people ; and when they moved out of the southern gate of the fort, the march was like a funeral procession. The band, feeling the solemnity of the occa^ sion, struck up the Dead March in Saul. Capt. Wells, who had blackened his face with gun-powder in token of his fate, took the lead with his band of Miamis, followed by Capt. Heald, with his wife by his side on horseback. Mr. Kinzie hoped by his personal influence to avert the impending blow, and therefore accompanied them, leaving his family in a boat in charge of a friendly Indian, to be taken to his trading station at the site of Niles, Michigan, in the event of his death. HISTOBY OF THE STATE OP ILLINOIS. 43 The procession moved slowly along the lake shore till they reached the sand-hills between the prairie and the beach, wJieu the Pottawattamie escort, under the leadership of Blackbird, filed to the right, placing those hills between them and the white people. Wells, with his Miarais, had kept in the advance. They suddenly came rushing back, Wells exclaim- ing, " They are about to attack us ; form instantly." These words were quickly followed by a storm of bullets, which came whistling over the little hills wiiich the treacherous savages had made the covert for their murderous attack. The white troops charged upon the Indians, drove them back to the prairie, and then the battle was waged between fifty- four soldiers, twelve civilians and three or four women (the cowardly Miamis having fled at the outset) against five hundred Indian warriors. The white people, hopeless, resolved to sell their lives as dearly as possible. Ensign Ronan wielded his weapon vigorously, even after falling upon his knees weak from the loss of blood. Capt. Wells, who was bj' the side of his niece, Mrs. Heald, when the conflict began, behaved with the greatest coolness and courage. He said to her, " We have not the slightest chance for life. We must part to meet no more in this world. God bless 3''0u." And then he dashed forward. Seeing a 3'oung warrior, painted like a demon, climb into a wagon in which were twelve children, and tomahawk them all, he cried out, unmindful of his personal danger, " If that is your game, butchering women and children, I will kill too." He spurred his horse towards the Indian camp, where they had left their squaws and papooses, hotly pursued by swift-footed young warriors, who sent bullets whistling after him. One of these killed his horse and wounded him severely in the leg. With a yell the young braves rushed to make him their prisoner and reserve him for torture. He resolved not to be made a captive, and b}' the use of the most provoking epithets tried to induce them to kill him instantly. He called a fiery young chief a squmv, when the enraged warrior killed Wells instantly with his tomahawk, jumped upon his body, cut out his heart, and ate a portion of the warm morsel with savage delight ! In this fearful combat women bore a conspicuous part. Mrs. Heald was an excellent equestrian and an expert in the use of the rifle. She fought the savages bravely, receiving several severe wounds. Though faiht from the loss of blood, she managed to keep her saddle. A savage raised his tomahawk to kill her, when she looked him full in the face, and with a sweet smile and in a gentle voice said, in his own language, " Surely you will not kill a squaw ! " The arm of the savage fell, and the life of the heroic woman was saved. Mrs. Helm, the step-daughter of Mr. Kinzie, had an encounter with a stout Indian, who attempted to tomahawk her. Springing to one side, she received the glancing blow on her shoulder, and at the same instant 44 HISTOKY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. seized the savage round the ueck with her arms and endeavored to get hold of his scalping knife, which hung in a sheath at his breast. While she was thus struggling she was dragged from her antagonist by anotlier Ijowerful Indian, who bore her, in spite of her struggles, to the margin of the lake and plunged her in. To her astonishment she was held by him so that she would not drown, and she soon perceived that she was in the hands of the friendly Black Partridge, who had saved her life. The wife of Sergeant Holt, a large and powerful woman, behaved as bravely as an Amazon. She rode a fine, high-spirited horse, which the Indians coveted, and several of them attacked her with the butts of their guns, for the purpose of dismounting her ; ■ but she used the sword which she had snatched from her disabled husband so skillfully that she foiled them ; and, suddenly wheeling her horse, she dashed over the prairie, followed by the savages shouting, " The brave woman ! the brave woman ! Don't hurt her ! " They finally overtook her, and while she was fighting them in front, a powerful savage came up behind her, seized her by tlie neck and dragged her to the ground. Horse and woman were made captives. Mrs. Holt was a long time a captive among the Indians, but was afterwards ransomed. In this sharp conflict two-thirds of the white people were slain and wounded, and all their horses, baggage and -provision were lost. Only twenty-eight straggling men now remained to fight five hundred Indians rendered furious b}'^ the sight of blood. They succeeded in breaking through the ranks of the murderers and gaining a slight eminence on the prairie near the Oak Woods. The Indians did not pursue, but gathered on their flanks, while the chiefs held a consultation on the sand-hills, and showed signs of willingness to parley. It would have been madness on the part of the whites to renew the fight; and so Capt. Heald went for- ward and met Blackbird on the open prairie, where terms of surrender were soon agreed upon. It was arranged that the white people should give up their arms to Blackbird, and that the survivors should become prisoners of war, to be exchanged for ransoms as soon as practicable. With this understanding captives and captors started for the Indian camp near the fort, to which Mrs. Helm had been taken bleeding and suffering by Black Partridge, and had met her step-father and learned that her husband was safe. A new scene of horror was now opened at the Indian camp. The wounded, not being included in the terms of surrender, as it was inter- preted by the Indians, and the British general. Proctor, having offered a liberal bounty for American scalps, delivered at Maiden, nearly all the wounded men were killed and scalped, and the price of the trophies was afterwards paid by the Britisli government. Abstract of Illinois State Laws. BILLS OF EXCHANGE AND PROMISSORY NOTES. No promissory note, check, draft, bill of exchange, order, or note, negO' liable instrument payable at sight, or on demand, or on presentment, shall be entitled to days of grace. All other bills of exchange, drafts or notes are entitled to three days of grace. All the above mentioned paper falling due on Sunday, New Years' Day, the Fourth of July, Christmas, or any day appointed or recommended by the President of the United States or the Governor of the State as a day of fast or thanksgiving, shall be deemed as due on the day previous, and should two or more of these days come together, then such instrument shall be treated as due on the day previous to the first of said days. No defense can be made against a negotiable instrument (assigned before due} in the hands of the assignee without notice, except fraud ivas used in obtaining the same. To hold an indorser, due diligence must be used by suit, in collecting of the maker, unless suit would have been unavailing. Notes payable to person named or to order, in order to absolutely transfer title, must be indorsed by the payee. Notes payable to bearer may be transferred by delivery, and when so payable every indorser thereon is held as a guarantor of payment unless otherwise expressed. In computing interest or discount on negotiable instruments, a month shall be considered a calendar month or tioelfth of a year, and for less than a month, a day shall be figured a thirtieth part of a month. Notes only bear interest when so expressed, but after due they draw the legal interest, even if not stated. INTEREST. The legal rate of interest is six per cent. Parties may agree in writ- ing on a rate not exceeding ten per cent. If a rate of interest greater than ten per cent, is contracted for, it works a forfeiture of the whole of said interest, and only the principal can be recovered. DESCENT. When no will is made, the property of a deceased person is distrib- uted as follows : A 45 46 ABSTRACT OF ILLINOIS STATE LAWS. First. To hh or her children and their descendants in equal parts ; the descendants of the deceased child or grandchild., taking the share of their deceased parents in equal parts among them. Second. When there is 7io child of the intestate, nor descendant of such child., and no icidow or surviving husband, then to the parents, broth- ers or sisters of the deceased, and their descendants, in equal parts among them, allowing to each of the parents, if living, a child's part, or to the survivor of them if one be dead, a double portion; and if there is no parent living, then to the brothers and sisters of the intestate, and their descendants. Third, When there is a widow or surviving husband, and no child or children, or descendants of a child or children of the intestate, then (after the payment of all just debts) one-half of the real estate and the whole of the personal estate shall descend to such widoiu or surviving hus- band as an absolute estate forever. Fourth. When there is a ividow or surviving husbajid, and also a child or children, or descendants of such child or children of the intestate, the widoiu or surviving husband shall receive as his or her absolute personal estate, one-third of all the personal estate of the intestate. Fifth. If there is no child of the intestate, or descendant of such child, and no parent, brother or sister, or descendant of such parent, brother or sister, and no widow or surviving husband, then such estate shall descend in equal parts to the next of kin to the intestate, in equal degree (computing by the rules of the civil law), and there shall be no representation among collaterals, except with the descendants of broth- ers and sisters of the intestate ; and in no case shall there be any distinc- tion between the kindred of the whole and the half blood. Sixth. If any intestate leaves a ividoiu or surviving husband and no kindred, his or her estate shall descend to such ividow or surviving husband. WILLS AND ESTATES OF DECEASED PERSONS. iVo exact form of tvords are necessary in order to make a will good at law. Every male person of the age of twenty-one years, and evevy female of the age of eighteen years, of sound mind and memory, can make a valid will ; it must be in writing, signed by the testator or by some one in his or her presence and by his or her direction, and attested by two or more credible witnesses. Care should be taken that the witnesses are not inter- ested in the will. Persons knowing themselves to have been named in the will or appointed executor, must within thirty days of the death of deceased cause the will to be proved and recorded in the proper county, or present it, and refuse to accept ; on failure to do so are liable to forfeit the sum of twenty dollars per month.

Any person having a claim and not presenting it at the time fixed by said notice is required to have summons issued notifying the executor or administrator of his having filed his claim in court ; in such cases the costs have to be paid by the claimant. Claims should be filed within two years from the time administration is granted on an estate, as after that time they SLve forever barred, unless other estate is found that was not in- ventoried. Married women, infants, persons insane, imprisoned or without the United States, in the employment of the United States, or of this State, have two years after their disabilities are removed to file claims. Claims are classified and paid out of the estate in the following manner : First. Funeral expenses. Second. The widow's award, if there is a widow ; or children if there are children, and no ividoio. Third. Expenses attending the last illness, not including physician's biU. Fourth. Debts due the common school or township fund . Fifth.

One hu7idred dollars ivorth of other property suited to her condition in life, to be selected by the widow. The widow if she elects may have in lieu of the said award, the same personal property or money in place thereof as is or may be exempt from execution or attachment against the head of a family. TAXES. The owners of real and personal property, on the first day of May in each year, are liable for the taxes thereon. Assessments should be completed before the fourth Monday in June, at which time the town board of review meets to examine assessments, hear objections, and make such changes as ought to be made. The county board have also power to correct or change assessments. The tax books are placed in the hands of the town collector on or before tl e tenth day of December, who retains them until the tenth day of March following, when he is required to return them to the county treasurer, who then collects all delinquent taxes. No costs accrue on real estate taxes till advertised, which takes place the first day of April, when three weeks' notice is required before judg- ment. Cost of advertising, twenty cents each tract of land, and ten cents each lot. Judgment is usually obtained at May term of County Court. Costs six cents each tract of land, and five cents each lot. Sale takes place in June. Costs in addition to those before mentioned, twenty-eight cents each tract of land, and twenty-seven cents each town lot. Meal estate sold for taxes may be redeemed any time before the expi- ration of two years from the date of sale, by payment to the County Clerk of the amount for which it was sold and twenty-five per cent, thereon if redeemed within six months, fifty per cent, if between six and twelve months, if between twelve and eighteen months seventy-five per cent., and if between eighteen months and two years one hundred per cent., and in addition, all subsequent taxes paid by the purchaser, with ten per cent, interest thereon, also one dollar each tract if notice is given by the purchaser of the sale, and a fee of twenty-five cents to the clerk for his certificate.

As the affidavit has to be made before the justice, and all other steps as to appraisement, etc., are before him, who is familiar therewith, they are therefore omitted here.

If the child is of the age of fourteen years or upwards, the adoption can not be made without its consent. SURVEYORS AND SURVEYS. There is in every county elected a surveyor known as county sur- veyor, who has power to appoint deputies, for whose official acts he is responsible. It is the duty of the county surveyor, either by himself or his deputy, to make all surveys that he may be called upon to make within his county as soon as may be after application is made. The necessary chainmen and other assistance must be employed by the person requiring the same to be done, and to be by him paid, unless otherwise agreed ; but the chainmen must be disinterested persons and approved by the surveyor and sworn by him to measure justly and impartially. The County Board in each countj^ is required by law to provide a copy of the United States field notes and plats of their surveys of the lands in the county to be kept in the recorder's office subject to examination by the public, and the county surveyor is required to make his surveys in conformity to said notes, plats and the laws of the United States gov- erning such matters.

ROADS. Where practicable from the nature of the ground, persons traveling in any kind of vehicle, must turn to the right of the center of the road, so as to permit each carriage to pass without interfering with each other. The penalty for a violation of this provision is $5 for every offense, to be recovered by the party injured ; but to recover, there must have occurred some injury to person or property resulting from the violation. The owners of any carriage traveling upon any road in this State for the conveyance of passengers who shall employ or continue in his employment as driver any person who is addicted to drunkenness^ or the excessive use of spiritous liquors, after he has had notice of the same, shall forfeit, at the rate of $5 per day, and if any driver while actually engaged in driving any such carriage, shall be guilty of intoxication to such a degree as to endanger the safety of passengers, it shall be the duty of the owner, on receiving ivritten notice of the fa^t, signed by one of the passengers, and certified by him on oath, forthwith to discharge such driver. If such owner shall have such driver in his employ within three months after such notice, he is liable for i5 per day for the time he shall keep said driver in his employment after receiving such notice. Persons driving any carriage on any public highway are prohibited from running their horses upon any occasion under a penalty of a fine not exceeding f 10, or imprisonment not exceeding sixty days, at the discre- tion of the court.

For violation of this provision each driver shall forfeit tiventy dollars, to be recovered by action, to be commenced within six months. It is under- stood by the term carriage herein to mean any carriage or vehicle used for the transportation of passengers or goods or either of them. The commissioners of highways in the different tov/ns have the care and superintendence of highways and bridges therein. They have all the powers necessary to lay out, vacate, regulate and repair all roads? build and repair bridges, divide their respective towns into as many road districts as they shall think convenient. This is to be done annually, 66 ABSTRACT OF ILLIKOTS STATE LAWS. and ten days before the annual town mueLing. In addition to the above, it is their duty to erect and keep in repair at the forks or crossing-place of the most important roads post and guide boards with plain inscrip- tions, giving directions and distances to the most noted places to which such road may lead ; also to make provisions to prevent thistles, burdock, and cockle burrs, mustard, yellow dock, Indian mallow, and jessamine weed from seeding, and to extirpate the same as far as practicable, and to prevent all rank growth of vegetation on the public highways, so far as the same may obstruct public travel, and it is in their discretion to erect watering places for public use for watering teams at such points as may be deemed advisable. Every able-bodied male inhabitant, being above the age of twenty-one years, and under the age of fifty, excepting paupers, idiots, lunatics, trustees of schools and school directors, and such others as are exempt by law, is required to labor on highways in their respective road districts, not less than one or more than three days in each and every year. Three days' notice must be given by the overseer of the time and place he requires such road labor to be done. The labor must be performed in the road district in which the person resides. Any person may commute for such labor by paying at the rate of $1.50 per day, if done within the three days' notice, but after that time the rate is $2 per day. Any person liable for work on highways who has been assessed two days or more and has not commuted, may be required to furnish team, oi a cart, wagon or plow, with a pair of horses or oxen and a man to manage them, for which he will be entitled to two days for each day's work. Eight hours is a day's work on the roads, and there is a penalty of twenty- five cents an hour against any person or substitute who shall neglect or refuse to perform. Any person remaining idle, or does not work faithfully or hinders others from doing so, forfeits to the town $2. Every person assessed and duly notified, who has not commuted and refuses or neglects to appear, shall forfeit to the town for every days refusal or neglect, the sum of $2 ; if he was required to furnish a team, carriage, man or implement, and neglects or refuses to comply, he is liable to the following fines : First. For wholly failing to comply, $4 each day. Second. For omitting to furnish a pair of horses or oxen, $1.50 each day. Third. For omitting to furnish a man to manage team, f 2 each day. Fourth.

Commis- sioners' compensation -$1.50 per day. The Treasurer, who is one of their number, is entitled to 2 per cent, on all moneys he may receive and pay out. Overseers. Their duties are to repair and keep in order the high- ways in their districts ; to warn persons to work out their road tax at such time and place as they think proper ; to collect fines and commuta- tion money, and execute all lawful orders of the Commissioners of High- ways ; also make list, within sixteen days after their election, of the names of all inhabitants in his road district liable to work on highways. For refusal to perform any of his duties, he is liable to a fine of $10. The compensation of overseers is $1.50 a day, the number of days to be audited by the Highway Commissioners. As all township and county officers are familiar with their duties, it is only intended to give the points of the law that the public should be familiar with. The manner of laying out, altering or vacating roads, etc., will not be here stated, as it would require more space than is contem- plated in a work of this kind. It is sufficient to state that, the first step is by petition, addressed to the Commissioners, setting out what is prayed for, giving the names of the owners of lands if known, if not known so state, over which the road is to pass, giving the general course, its place of beginning, and where it terminates. It requires not less than twelve freeholders residing within three miles of the road who shall sign the petition. Public roads must not be less than fifty feet wide, nor more than sixty feet wide. Roads not exceeding two miles in length, if peti- tioned for, may be laid out, not less than forty feet. Private roads for private and public use, may be laid out of the width of three rods, on petition of the person directly interested ; the damage occasioned thereby shall be paid by the premises benefited thereby, and before the road is opened. If not opened in two years, the order shall be considered rescinded. Commissioners in their discretion may permit persons who live on or have private roads, to work out their road tax thereon. Public roads must be opened in five days from date of filing order of location, or be deemed vacated. DRAINAGE. Whenever one or more owners or occupants of land desire to construct a drain or ditch across the land of others for agricultural or sanitary pur- poses, the proceedings are as follows : 1st. File a petition with the clerk of the town hoard of auditors in counties where there is township organization, or in counties not so organized with the clerk of the County Court, stating the necessity of the 58 ABSTRACT OF ILLINOIS STATE LAWS. same, its starting point, route and terminus ; and if it shall be deemed necessary for successful drainage that a levee or other work be constructed, a general description of the same shall be made. 2d. After filing^ tioo weeks'' notice must be given by posting notices in three of the most public places in such township through which the drain, ditch or other work is proposed to be constructed ; and also, by publishing a copy thereof in some newspaper published in the county in which petition is filed, at least once each week for two successive weeks. The notice must state when and before what board such petition is filed, the starting point, route, terminus and description of the proposed work. On receipt of the petition by the clerk of either board as before men- tioned, it is his duty to immediately give notice to the board of which he is clerk, of the fact, and that a meeting of the board will be held on a day to be fixed not later than sixty days after the filing of said petition, to consider the prayer of the same ; and it is further the duty of the clerk, to publish a notice of the filing of the petition and the meeting of the board to consider it, by posting the same in the three most public places in the township or county. On the hearing, all parties may contest the matter, and if it shall appear to the board that the work contemplated is necessary, or is useful for the drainage of the land for agricultural and sanitary purposes, they shall so find and shall file their petition in the County Court, reciting the original petition and stating their finding, and pray that the costs of the improvement be assessed, and for that purpose three commissioners be appointed to lay out and construct the work. The costs of the hearing before the town board is to be paid by the petitioners. After commissioners are appointed, they organize and proceed to examine the work ; and if they find the benefits greater than the cost and expense of the work, then it is their duty to have the surveyor's plans and speci- fications made, and when done report the same to the court, before which parties can be heard prior to confirmation. The commissioners are not confined to the route or plan of the petition, but may change the same. After report of commissioners is confirmed, then a jury assess the damages and benefits against the land damaged or benefited. As it is only contemplated in a work of this kind to give an abstract of the laws, and as the parties who have in charge the execution of the further proceedings are likely to be familiar with the requirements of the statute, the necessary details are not here inserted. PAUPERS. Every poor person who shall be unable to earn a livelihood in conse- quence of any bodily infirmity, idiocy, lunacy or unavoidable cause, shall be supported by the father, grand-father, mother, grand-mother, children, grand-children, brothers or sisters of such poor person, if they or either ABSTRACT OF ILLINOIS STATE LAWS. 69 of them be of sufficient ability ; but if any of such dependent class shall have become so from intemperance^ or other had conduct^ they shall not be entitled to support from any relation except parent or child. The children shall first be called on to support their parents, if they are able ; but if not, the parents of such poor person shall tlien be called on, if of sufficient ability; and if there be no parents or cliildren able, then the brothers and sisters of such dependent person shall be called upon ; and if there be no brothers or sisters of sufficient ability, the grand-children of such person shall next be called on ; and if they are not able, then the grand-parents. Married females, while their husbands live, shall not be liable to contribute for the support of their poor relations except out of their separate property. It is the duty of the state's (county) attorney, to make complaint to the County Court of his county against all the relatives of such paupers in this state liable to his support and prosecute the same. In case the state's attorney neglects, or refuses, to complain in such cases, then it is the duty of the overseer of the poor to do so. The person called upon to contribute shall have at least ten days' notice of such application by summons. The court has the power to determine the kind of support, depending upon the circumstances of the parties, and may also order two or more of the different degrees to main- tain such poor person, and prescribe the proportion of each, according to their ability. The court may specify the time for which the relative shall contribute — in fact has control over the entire subject matter, with power to enforce its orders. Every county (except those in which the poor are supported by the towns, and in such cases the towns are liable) is required to relieve and support all poor and indigent persons laivfully resident therein. Residence means the actual residence of the party, or the place where he was employed ; or in case he was in no employment, then it shall be the place where he made his home. When any person becomes chargeable as a pauper in any county or town who did not reside at the commencement of six months immediately preceding his becoming so, but did at that time reside in some other county or town in this state, then the county or town, as the case may be, becomes liable for the expense of taking care of such person until removed, and it is the duty of the overseer to notify the proper authorities of the fact. If any person shall bring and leave any pauper in any county in this state where such pauper had no legal residence, knowing him to be such, he is liable to a fine of f 100. In counties under township organization, the supervisors in each town are ex-officio overseers of the poor. The overseers of the poor act under the directions of the County Board in taking care of the poor and granting of temporary relief; also, providing for non-resident persons not ' paupers who may be taken sick and not able to pay their way, and in case ^ of death cause such person to be decently buried. 60 ABSTRACT OF ILLINOIS STATE LAWS. FENCES. In counties under township organization, the town assessor and com- missioner of highways are the fence-viewers in their respective towns. In other counties the County Board appoints three in each precinct annu- ally. A lawful fp.nce is four and one-half feet high, in good repair, con- sisting of rails, timber, boards, stone, hedges, or whatever the fence- viewers of the town or precinct where the same shall lie, shall consider equivalent thereto, but in counties under township organization the annual town meeting may establish any other kind of fence as such, or the County BoA,rd in other counties may do the same. Division fences shall be made and maintained in just proportion by the adjoining owners, except when the owner shall choose to let his land lie open, but after a division fence is built by agreement or otherwise, neither party can remove his part of such fence so long as he may crop or use such land for farm purposes, or without giving the other party one year's notice in writing of his intention to remove his portion. When any person shall enclose his land upon the enclosure of another, he shall refund the owner of the adjoining lands a just pro- portion of the value at that time of such fence. The value of fence and the just proportion to be paid or built and maintained by each is to be ascertained by two fence-viewers in the town or precinct. Such fence- viewers have power to settle all disputes between different owners as to fences built or to be built, as well as to repairs to be made. Each party chooses one of the viewers, but if the other party neglects, after eight days' notice in writing, to make his choice, then the other party may select both. It is sufficient to notify the tenant or party in possession, when the owner is not a resident of the town or precinct. The two fence-viewers chosen, after viewing the premises, shall hear the state- ments of the parties , in case they can't agree, they shall select another fence-viewer to act with them, and the decision of any two of them is final. The decision must be reduced to writing, and should plainly set out description of fence and all matters settled by them, and must be filed in the office of the town clerk in counties under township organiza- tion, and in other counties with the county clerk. Where any person is liable to contribute to the erection or the repairing of a division fence, neglects or refuses so to do, the party injured, after giving sixty days notice in writing when a fence is to be erected, or ten days when it is only repairs, may proceed to have the work done at the expense of the party whose duty it is to do it, to be recovered from him with costs of suit, and the party so neglecting shall also be liable to the party injured for all damages accruing from such neglect or refusal, to be determined by any two fence-viewers selected as before provided, the appraisement to be reduced to writing and signed.

Wo certificate of election after the first need he filed for record. The term of office of the trustees and the general government of the society can be determined by the rules or by-laws adopted. Failure to elect trustees at the time provided does not work a dissolution, but the old trustees hold over. A trustee or trustees may be removed, in the same manner by the society as elections are held by a meeting called for that purpose. The property of the society vests in the corporation. The corporation may hold, or acquire by purchase or otherwise, land not exceeding ten acres, for the purpose of the society. The trustees have the care, custody and control of the property of the corporation, and can, when directed by the society, erect houses or improvements, and repair and alter the same, and may also when so directed by the society, mortgage, encumber, sell and convey any real or personal estate belonging to the corporation, and make all proper contracts in the name of such corporation. But the}'' are prohibited by law from encumbering or inter- fering with any property so as to destroy the effect of any gift, grant, devise or bequest to the corporation ; but such gifts, grants, devises or bequests, must in all cases be used so as to carry out the object intended by the persons making the same. Existing societies may organize in the manner herein set forth, and have all the advantages thereof. SUGGESTIONS TO THOSE PURCHASING BOOKS BY SUBSCRIPTION. The business of publishing boojcs hy subscription having so often been brought into disrepute by agents making representations and declarations not authorized by the publisher ; in order to prevent that as much as possi- ble, and that there may be more general knowledge of the relation such agents bear to their principal, and the law governing such cases, the fol- lowing statement is made : A subscription is in the nature of a contract of mutual promises, by which the subscriber agrees to pay a certain sum for the work described ; the consideration is concurrent that the publisher shall publish the book named, and deliver the same, for which the subscriber is to pay the price named. The nature and character of the work is described in the prospectus and by the sample shoivn. These should be carefully examiyied before sub- scribing, as they are the basis and consideration of the promise to pay, ABSTRACT O ILLINOIS STATE LAWS. 81 and not the too often exaggerated statements of the agents who is merely employed to solicit subscriptions, for which he is usually paid a commission for each subscriber, and has no authority to change or alter the conditions upon which the subscriptions are authorized to be made by the publisher. Should the agent assume to agree to make the subscription conditional or modify or change the agreement of the publisher, as set out by prospectus and sample, in order to bind the principal, the subscriber should see that such conditions or changes are stated over or in connection with his signa- ture, so that the publisher may have notice of the same. All persons making contracts in reference to matters of this kind, or any other business, should remember that the law as to written contracts is, that they can not be varied, altered or rescinded verbally, but if done at all, must be done in writing. It is therefore important that all persons contem- plating subscribing should distinctly understand that all talk before or after the subscription is made, is not admissible as evidence, and is no part of the contract. Persons employed to solicit subscriptions are known to the trade as canvassers. They are agents appointed to do a particular business in a prescribed mode, and have no authority to do it in any other way to the prejudice of their principal, nor can they bind their principal in any other matter. They cannot collect money, or agree that payment may be made in anything else but money. They can not extend the time of payment beyond the time of delivery, nor bind their principal for the payment of expenses incurred in their buisness. It would save a great deal of trouble, and often serious loss, if persons, before signing their names to any subscription book, or any written instru- ment, would examine carefully -what it is ; if they can not read themselves, should call on some one disinterested who can. 6 82 MISCELLANEOUS INFOEMATION. INTEREST TABLE. A Simple Rule for Accurately Computl\g Interest at Any Given Per Cent, for Any Length of Time. Multiply the primipal (amount of money at interest) by the time reduced to day<: ' then divide this prodiut by the quotient obtained by dividing 360 (the i.u.nber of days in the interest year) by the ptr cent, of interest, and the quotient thus obtained will be the required interest. illustration. Require the interest of $462.50 for one month and eighteen days at 6 per cent. An interest month is 30 days ; one month and eighteen days equal 48 days. $462.50 multiplied by .48 gives 222,0000; 360 divided by 6 (the per cent, of interest) gives 60, and $222.0000 divided by 60 will give you the exact interest, which is $3.70. If the rate of interest in the above example were 12 pc:r cent., we would divide the $222.0000 by 30 (because 360 divided by 12 gives 30) ; if 4 per cent., we would divide by 90 ; if 8 per cent., by 45 ; and in like manner for any other per cent. 6)360, 60 Solution. $462 50 ^ 370000 185000 $222.0000($3.70 180 420 420 MISCELLANEOUS TABLE. 00 12 units, or things, i Dozen. 12 dozen, I Gross. 20 things, I Score. 196 pounds, I Barrel of Flour. 200 pounds, I Barrel of Pork.

HISTORY. In the wmter of 1822 and 1823 the Legislature of the State of Illinois laid out the " Military Tract,'' situated between the Illinois and Mississippi rivers, into counties, giving to each a name, and at the same time formed several other counties. At an earlier day the '' Military Tract," and, indeed, all uorth and west of the Illinois river, including the country about Galena, was attached to and lormed a part of Madison county, for judicial purposes. At that session, however, Pike countv was formed, and the records of lands, patents, &c., situated on the Military Tract, were thereafter recorded at Atlas, then the countv seat. A subsequent Legislature organized Adams, Schuyler, Fulton and Pe- oria counties, attaching to Schuyler county the new county of McDonough, for judicial purposes. During the session of 1824-2.^ the county of AVarren was formed, comprising all chat part of the Military Tract lying west of the fourth principal meridian, extending to the Mississippi river, and including what is now Henderson countj-. It M'as named in honor of General Joseph Warren, who so gallantly defended the country at the commencement of the Revolutionary war, and who was the first ofiicer to shed his life's blood in that struggle which gave America her independence. He was killed by a musket ball at the battle of Bunker's Hill. As every school-boy knows, the Americans were enabled to "hold the fort" while their ammunition lasted; that giving way, they slowly retreated, Gen. Warren being the last to go. As he retired he turned to look at the foe, and just at that instant received a ball in his forehead, and sank dead to the earth. He was thirty-five years of age at the time. The Legislature met at Yandalia, then the capital of the State, and in the Act forming the county attached it to Pike countv, for judicial pur- poses, until a sutficient number of inhabitants were within its borders to enable it to take active existence. This did not occur until June, 1830. Late in the spring of 1827, some pioneers made their way into the county limits, and the following year the first g)-ound was broken by a plow. The Talbot family were the earliest settlers in Warren county. Mrs. Talbot, mother of John B. Talbot, was some eighty years of age when she came. She was born in New England, but came to Kentuck}- when John was born. After the death of his mother he married and removed to Oregon. Allen G. Andrews, a nephew of Mrs. Talbot, came about the same time. He had been several years in the West Indies, and was quite a good Spanish scholar. He died some years ago on his farm, just north of Cedar creek. James B. Atwood settled on his farm in 1828. In June of that year he claimed to have broken five acres of prairie and planted it in corn. He afterwards went to Texas. Andrew Robinson settled on the farm after- wards owned by old Mr. Terpening. He located again on a farm about seven miles north-east of Monmouth, where he, in after years, died. Adam 108 HISTORY OF WARREN COUNTY. Ritchie ('' Sandy ") settled near Sugar-Tree Grove in May, 1828. His son, Rev. Henderson Ritchie, born December 28, 1828, was the first white child born in Warren county. Mr. Ritchie afterwards went to Quincy, then to where Nauvoo was built, at which place he died of cholera. J. BuiFum and L. P. Rockwell located where Rockwell's mill was afterwards built. Daniel Harris, a quiet, peaceful man, erected a cabin near where the village of Ellison now stands. He was basely murdered, while eating, by a gun-shot through the window. His was the first death in the county. It is somewhat strange that the first deaths in the region were violent. Shortly after the killing of Mr. Harris, Mr. James Moffitt went out one morning to find his cattle, which had strayed away on the unbounded prai- ries. Getting upon a fence surrounding some choice garden or field, he un- expectedly fell and dislocated his neck, so that death resulted soon after. Afterwards, William Martin, son of Hugh Martin, was killed by the In- dians. An account of this and the trial of the murderer will be found fur- ther on in this narrative. Adam Ritchie (" Black," as he was called on ac- count of his dark color) located here about the same date as that of his cousin Adam (called " Sandy " on account of his sandy complexion, and to distinguish him from the other), but afterwards removed to Iowa, where he was a pioneer in the organization of the first Seceder church in that State. Dr. Isaac Galland, or Garland— the latter is probably the correct name — erected, in 1827, the first house on the site of the lower Yellow Banks, now Oquaka, Henderson county. The Dr. afterwards related that it took him nearly a week to lay up the logs of his house, eight rounds high. There were no white men to help him, save his teamster, and in the emer- gency he hired six or eight Indians, who were then encamped at the point of woods below. He had to pay them for each log as it was rolled to its place, and give them a drink around. As they were unused to such labor, and particularly after imbibing two or three drams of liquor, thereby be- coming unsteady in their movements, they were unable to perform heavy work. Often at this stage of the labor, the logs, which were unhewn, and ot the black-jack variety, would give a lurch, and coming down on their bare arms and breasts, would tear off the skin in great flakes. The}^ would give an ejaculatory ''owcA," and at once quit for the day. Their love of the '• fire-water " was so great, however, that they would always return on the following day, thereby repeating the process until the house was complete. A few other houses were probably built this year — 1827. In 1828 and '29, quite a number of settlers came and located in difterent portions of the county. James and Rolla Simmons settled at Greenbush ; John C. Bond shortly after, a little south of them; a family (name not now known) at the head of Swan creek; Field, Jarvis and Col. Redman at the head of Ellison creek; Samuel G. Morise, Thomas Pearce, Solomon Perkins and Shelden Lockwood near the present town of Berwick; Stephen S. Phelps at the Lower Yellow Banks; James Hodgens at Ilodgens' Grove, just north-west of the present city of Monmouth; Samuel Jameson and sons, and James Ryerson south of the Yellow Banks. Stephen S. Phelps purchased the improved claim of Dr. Garland, and removed his family to their new home in the summer of 1828. He was soon joined by the families of Beatty and Jeremiah Smith, in addition to several already mentioned. Mr. Smith erected a saw and grist mill on Smith creek, in 1829, and before a few summers had passed quite a settle- ment was established at this place. HISTORY OV WARREN COUNTY. 109 III the Autumn of 1S29 and sprinj? of 1830, Elijah Davidson,^ Sr., Wil- liam Whitman, Peter Butler and others located on the south side of Cedar creek. By this time the entire territory comprised in Warren, Henderson and Mercer counties contained only about thirt}^ or forty families; but others were constantly coming, so that by the spring of the latter year it was thought proper to send to Peoria and secure an order for a county elec- tion from Hon. Kichard M. Young, Judge of the Circuit Court, and so well known in after years throughout the State. Bj the census of 1830, theie were that year in the territory included within the three counties 360 inhabitants. Other reasons urged this step. They were compelled to go to Peoria for all legal purposes — for all marriage licenses— or publish a notice ten days before the event, and young people then, as now, did not at all times care to make the happy affair so public a matter; they were compelled to adopt the former course. The citizens desired to assess and collect their own taxes, and to man- aoje affairs their own wav. Petitions to this effect were freelv circulated and freely signed. *Daniel McISTeil, Jr., who then lived at Lower Yellow Banks, was ap- pointed to go to Peoria to meet the Judge and present the petition. Judge Young was then holding court in a building sixteen by twenty teet in dimensions, situated upon the bank of the river, just where the latter leaves the lake. It was then more than fifty miles from any part of Warren to Peoria by the most direct route. The Spoon and Kickapoo rivers were to be crossed between the two places, and they were often unfordable by reason of overflows. The Judge saw the necessity of the people, and being satis- fied thei-e wei*e enough within the prescribed limits of the county, issued the following order : State oe Illinois, ) . Fifth Judicial Circuity \ The People of the State of Illinoits, To all who shall see these presents, Greeting : Whereas, By the ninth and eleventh sections of the Act entitled " An Act forming new counties out of the counties of Pike and Fulton, and the attached parts thereofV' approved January 13th, 1825, it is made the duty of the presiding Judge of the Fifth Judicial Circuit of the State of Illinois, whenever it shall be made to appear to his satisfaction, that either of the counties of Hancock, Warren, Mercer, Henry, Putnam and Knox, contain three hundred and fifty inhabitants, to proceed to organize the same, and to grant an order for the election of county ofificers preparatory thereto : And whereas, it has been made appear to my satisfaction, that the county of Warren contains three hundred and fifty inhabitants and upwards; and in- asmuch as the greater part of the qualified voters of the said county have requested, by petition, that the same should be organized with as little delay as possible, I do, therefore, in pursuance of the power vested in me, by virtue of the above recited Act, order and direct that an election be * This man was more generallj- known than any one of the earlj^ settlers. He held almost every office in the county at one time and another, and did more to advance its inter- ests than any one else. He wasl)orn in Hillsborough, N. H., March 24, 1792; he emigrated to Phelps, N. Y., in 1805; to Louisiana in 1810. He returned to N. Y. again in 1814, and went to Wabash county, near Vincennes, Indiana, in 1819. In 1824 he removed to Fulton county, Illinois. In 1*830 he came to Warren county, where he remained until 18o2, when he went to De Witt, Iowa, where he died Feb. 28, 1859, aged seventy-six years. 110 HISTORY OF WARKEX COUNTY.

Talbot, Adam Kitchie, Jr., and Robert K. Hendricks, of said county, judges of said elec- tion, whose duty it shall be to set up written or printed advertisements or notices of said election in at least six of the most public places in said county, inclusive of the place at which the election is hereby directed to be held (having a due regard to the situation and population of the different settlements), at least ten days previous to the said election, to the end that all persons may have timely notice thereof. The election to be held viva voce, between the hours of nine o'clock in the forenoon and seven o'clock in the afternoon of said day, and conducted, as far as may be practicable, in conformity with the Act entitled " An iVct regulating Elections," approved January 10th, 1S9,9', and, lastly, the said judges are to certify the result of the said election to the office of the Seci'etary of State, as soon thereafter as may be convenient, in order that the persons who may be elected, may be commissioned and qualified with as little delay as possible, and after the elec- tion of the said county officers, I do hereby declare the said county of Warren to be organized, and entitled to the same rights and privileges as the other counties in this State.

Young, Circuit Judf/e of the Fifth Judicial Circuit of the State of Illinois. Mr. Ritchie lived near the centre of the population, and early on the morning of the day appointed for the election the voters assembled. Thirty- seven votes were polled, three voters being absent. The persons named in the order of Judge Young declining to serve as judges of election, the peo- ple appointed Robert K. Hendricks, Sheldon Lockwood and Peter Butler in their place, and Stephen S. Phelps and Daniel McXeil clerks. On count- ino^ the votes at the close of the ballotincr John Pence, John B. Talbot and Adam ("Sandy") Ritchie were found elected Commissioners; John Rust, Sheriff, and John Ritchie, Coronor. Knox county, immediately east of Warren, and McDonough county, in the south, were each organized by order of Judge Young, on the same day, and at their elections each gave about the same number of votes as Warren. On the ]\[ondav following the election in Warren, the Commissioners met at Lower Yellow Banks, at the house of Stephen S. Phelps, and organ- ized as a Board of County Commissioners. They appointed Daniel McNeil their clerk, divided the county into two election precincts and two Justice's districts, the divisions being marked by the range line between three and four west. The western was called Precinct No. 1, and Yellow Banks Judge's District, the place of holding elections being the temporary court- house. The eastern was called Precinct No. 2, and the place of holding elections was a])pointed at the house of Isaac Hodgens, at Hodgens' Grove, one mile north-west of the present county seat. An election was ordered to be held at these places on the first Monday in August following, that HISTORY OF WARKEN COUNTY. I I 1 beiiiii; the <»'eneral election day throui^hoiit tlie State. It was also ordered, that in addition to the State oHicers elected, there should be chosen thi-ee County Commissioners, one Sheriff, one Coroner, two Justices, two Con- stables in each precinct; and as the District Court was expected to hold a session before this election, the Commissioners selected a Grand and Petit Jury, which took ever}' eligible man in the county. The county being now organized, it was necessary that the laws of the State be put into force. Judge Young issued the following order : '' Statk of Illinois, ) / . Flftlt Judicial District. [ To all whom, it may concern^ Greeting : " Know ye, That I, Richard M. Young, Judge of the Fifth Judicial Circuit of the State of Illinois, north of the Illinois river, and presiding Judge of the Circuit Court, in and for the county of AVarren, and State aforesaid, in pursuance of the power vested in me by virtue of the 10th sec- tion of the Act entitled 'An Act supplementary to an Act regulating the Supreme and Circuit Courts,' approved January 1(>, 1829, approved Janu- ary 28, 1829, do hereby order and appoint, that Cii'cuit Courts be held in and for the said county of Warren, at such places as may be selected and provided by the County Commissioners' Court of said county on the fourth Mondays in June and the first Mondays in October, until I shall make another order to the contrary. '• Signed, Richard M. Young, '-'■Judge of the Fifth Judicial Circuit!''' This order was given at Galena on July 5th, preceding the general election, and on the same day the Judge gave the order for the organization of the count}'; he gave to Daniel McNeil the appointment of clerk, j^ro tern.., for the Circuit Court, dating it at Peoria, on October 1st, 1830, where he held court, at the house of John B. Gunner At the general election in August, votes were cast for Governor, Lieut.-Governor, Representative to the General Assembly of the State, and for the county officers, as ordered by the Commissioners. Forty-seven votes were cast, forty- three being the greatest number any one candidate received, and every voter in the county was present save three. Hon. John Reynolds received thirty-four votes for Governor, and William Kinney eleven. Hon. Wright was elected Representative; and for the county offices, the following persons were chosen : John B. Talbot, Peter Butler and John Pence, Commissioners ; Stephen S. Phelps, Sheriff, and John Ritchie, Coronor. At the Yellow Banks District, John Pence and Daniel McNeil, Jr., were elected Justices, and James Ryersou and William Causland, Constables. At the Hodgens' Grove District, John B. Talbot, (" Sandy ") Adam Ritchie were elected Justices, and David Findley and Constables. Daniel McNeil having been appointed Clerk of Circuit Court, the county was now in complete running order. For some reason no preparation was mads for holding the Circuit Court, and the Judge met with the Clerk at the house of John B. Gunner, at Henderson's Grove, and after performing a little formulatory business, each returned to his home. It was customary in these days to have something to '"take" at all elections, and the " take " was pretty generally indulged in by all. At the election in August, already referred to, a bucket was filled with whiskey, and a sufficient number of tin cups placed therein, and all who desired could freely imbibe. Tlie Indians were i)resent at the time in a sti-oug represen- 112 HISTORY OF WAEEEX COUNTY. tation, and indulged in their favorite " fire-M-ater " to their full. Approach- ing the successful candidates at the close of the election, the}^ congratulated them in a series of grunts and approving gestures, using in many cases, their only English sentence expressive of their ideas — " You big chief, big chief, me little chief, so high," measuring a short distance from the ground. Or " Keokuk, big chief, big chief," measuring with extended arm as high as they could reach. The county being now fully organized, it became necessary to have a seat of justice, and as the inhabitants residing therein could not decide upon the location, they petitioned the Legislature to select it. This the body did, by appointing three commissioners to perform the duty. They were Major Hazen Bedel, of Hancock county, John G. Sauburn, of Knox county, and John McNeil, of Fulton. The Act appointing these persons as Commis- sioners to locate the county seat passed the Legislature, and was approved January 27, 1831. The Act directed them to meet at the house of Stephen S. Phelps, on the first Monday of the following April, and being duly sworn by some judge or justice in the count}^ they were "faithfully to take into consideration the convenience of the people, the situation of the settlements with a view to tlie future population of said county and the eligibility of the situation, shall proceed to fix upon a place for the permanent seat of justice for said county, and give to it a name." On the day appointed these persons met and were duly sworn before Daniel McNeil, Jr., a justice, and at once proceeded to select a location. Yellow Banks, Hodo-en's Point, Center Grove and Ellison's Creek were all contestants for the place. In order to ascertain what the future population might be, the commissioners made a plat of the county and placed in each township the probable number of towns, varying from four to forty-two. On April the 7th they completed the work assigned them, and sealing and directing a pa--kage containing their decision to the "Covmty Commis- sioners Court of Warren County, Illinois," they departed to their homes. At a called meeting of the latter court, on the 11th day of the same month, the package was opened and was found to locate the seat of justice on section 29, in township 11. The reader will find their decision given at the commencement of the history of Monmouth, in their own words. In choosing the name of the new county seat, each commissioner selected the names ; from these, three were drawn, which proved to be Isabella, Kosciusko and Monmouth. These were thrown together, and it was agreed that the one drawn should be the name. Kosciusko was drawn, wlien it was suggested by the commissioner who first selected it, that very few of the inhabitants could spell it correctly, and he moved a drawing of the other two names be made. This was done, and resulted in the name the city now bears. The summer of 1831 was remarkably cold. Dark spots were plainly seen by the naked eye to cover the sun. The crops were almost a failure, and an early winter set in. Snow fell on the Irth day of October, but the skies clearing ofi", a fine spell of weather came in, which lastea a few weeks and enabled the settlers to o^ather tiieir corn. The winter be<»:an ao:ain with a storm of rain which lasted until the prairies were covered with water. It then changed to snow, and became in a few hours bitterly cold. Within twelve hours after the change, the prairies were a complete glare of ice, and neither man or beast could move with safety. Men were known to go five miles or more to get horse-shoes and nails made, and HISTORY OF WARREN COUNTT. 113 retnrnino' home would set the shoes with a common drawino;-laid. The present membership of this church is 120, and the congregation is in a prosperous condition. This church has received, since its organization, about 700 members. Many have taken certificates to aid in the formation of other churches. As an outgrowth from this "oldest church in the county," and from Cedar Creek church, there are at the present time 7iine United Presbyterian churches, with about 2,000 members. The Cedar Creek church, in Sumner township, was organized July 4, 1835, as Associate Reformed, by Rev. Dr. Blakie, now of Boston, Mass. It was first called by the very appropriate name, " Sharon Church," and was the first of this denomination in this county, and probably for many contiguous counties in this region. The following names are found upon the oldest record as the persons constituting the church at the time organized : John Giles, rulino; elder ; James Giles, John P. Giles, Hugh Martin, Prudence Giles, Nancy Giles, Susannah Giles, Margaret Giles, Mary L. Giles, Susan Giles, Jane Giles, John Williamson, James Campbell, Mary Findley, James Findley, Nancy Robinson, George Jay and Mary A. Jay — eighteen in all. Dr. Blakie had been sent out as a missionary of the church into the new settlements of the West, and when he found a few who had been members of churches where they had previously lived, he gathered them into a church. Prior to his coming, Rev. John Wallace, also a missionary, from Mon- roe county, Ya., had preached several times at the houses of some of the settlers, and was employed by the congregation, after the organization, as stated supply for a portion of his time from 1835 to 1840. The first elders were J. C. McCrery, Wm. Walker and Maj. John Brown. Rev. James C. Porter came here in 1840, and was the first pastor— installed in 1841, and continued until near the time of his death, which occurred Nov. 15, 1863. It was during this pastorate that the membership largely increased. Also, in 1858, this church joined in the union and thus became United Presby- terian. Rev. John A. Reynolds began his work in this church in August, 1863, and remained pastor until July, 1872, nine years. The present pastor is Rev. J. M. Atchison, who commenced his labors here Dec. 1, 1872. This congregation has built three houses of worship. The first was of logs, built in 1836, and stood about two miles northeast from Little York. This was occupied until 1845, when a larger and better edifice was needed, and a frame structure was erected near the first, and was occupied as a liouse of worship over twenty years. The present commodious house was built in 1866, cost about $4,000, and stands in a beautiful grove, three miles north- east from Little York. This congregation also own a pleasant parsonage, situated one mile north of the church. Not one of the original members is now connected with this congregation; only two are known to be living — 130 HISTORY OF WARREN COUNTS'. Mrs. Wallace, widow of Kev. John TTallace, and Mrs. Jamison, now in Floi'ida. The present membership is 140. The total contributions for last year, as reported, for all church purposes were about $2,500, averaofing nearly twenty dollars per member, showing a very generous liberality. This congregation is in a growing and prosperous condition, has a flourishing Sabbath-school, averaging 110, Superintendent Zenas Hogue, and a large weekly district prayer meeting, well attended by old and young. THE COUIs^TY FARM. Until the year 1857, the poor in the county were kept by the townships. They were generally given to the "lowest bidder," as it was termed, to the one who would maintain them at the least expense to the county. In almost all cases these were the relatives of the person so kept. This method was uusatisfactorv. In June of that vear the county, throui^h Por- ter Phelps and Hiram Norcross as its agents, purchased one hundred and twenty acres of Luther Dickson for $3,360, and on this tract a house was erected at an expense of $2,000, for this class of persons. Soon after Albert Mitchell, Esq., was appointed Superintendent, and in 1859 the rules regulating this institution were adopted. The institution is now in a good condition,occupying a commodious frame house. The farm is about five miles southwest of Monmouth, and at present sustains quite a number of inmates. SCHOOL COMMISSIONERS, SCHOOL LANDS, TRUSTEES AND COUNTY SUPERINTENDENTS. The initiatory steps in the Educational development of Warren County consisted in the election of the proper officers for disposing of school lands, the custodians of the funds raised, and the organization of districts. The first event in this direction occurred at a regular meeting of the County Commissioners' Court, held in Monmouth, Sept. 5th, 1831. This court consisted of Peter Butler and John B. Talbot, County Commissioners; Daniel McNeil, County Clerk; and James Ryerson, Sherifl". Alexis Phelps was appointed School Commissioner, and executed his bond for $12,000, with Peter Butler, John B. Talbot and Sheldon Lockwood sureties, which was approved and filed Sept. 7, 1831. At the same term of this court, Robert Kendall, James Murphy and Daniel McNeil were appi^inted Trustees. These otiicers proceeded at once to sub-divide the school section into lots from 1 to 25 inclusive, and pursuant to public notice, said lands and lots were offered at public sale Oct. 27, 1831. The aggregate amount of lands and lots sold at auction on that day was 200 acres, ranging in price from $1.25 to $1.62^ per acre. The remainder of the section was sold at private sale, and the first annual report of the Commissioner shows, total amount received, $1,754.4(5; deducting expenses, net proceeds, $1,39S.38. In tiie spring of 1S32 the following persons were appointed Trustees of Sumner Township: Ilugli Martin, Anthony Cannon and James Barton. Lands were offered for sale Sept. 8, 1834. Eighty acres were sold to John G. Barton at $1.25 per acre. HISTORY OF WAKREN COUNTY. 131 In Flo^-cl Townshi]) Trustees wei-e appointed Dec. 2, ls33, as follows: Wm. Whitman, John G.

Ellison lands sold March 31, 1836, and here terminates the official records of Alexis Phelps, the first school commissioner of this county. Tie was succeeded by Wyat S. Berry, who sold the school lands of Swan Town- ship for $4,070.90, Jan. 15, 1838. The next sale of lands was the 16th Sec. of Boseville Township, July 29, 1839, for $1,029.60. Then lands of Kelly Township, Sept. 28, 1S40, for $1,433.10. Samuel Wood was next appointed School Commissioner, and he sold a part of the lands of Spring Grove Township, Dec. 14, 1S43. This officer w^as succeeded by James G. Madden, during whose term of office, by act of the Legislature, the School Commissioner became ex-qjfficio Super- intendent of schools. The following comprises a list of school commissioners and eK-ojflcio superintendents: W. B. Jenks, Wm. F. Smith, A. H. Tracy, V. S. Har- baugh, Willis B. Greer, F. B. Bond, Wm. H. Pierce, A. B. Cox and Ira B, Harsh, whose term of office expired in Dec. 1865. By act of the Legisla- ture of 1865, Sec. 11 of the school law was so amended that the office of school commissioner terminated, and created the office of County Superin- tendent. G. I. Willson w^as the first elected to this office, and continued the allotted time, four years. In 1870 J. B. Donnell, the present incumbent, succeeded to this office. " SCHOOLS. The low rate at which the school lands were sold — being in most cases not more than six per cent, of what was their real value a few years later — -failed to create an endowment sufficient to establish and maintain a sys- tem of public schools. Hence schools were not "free," and while we had all the machinery of a j^ublic school system, a small per cent, only of the expense was paid from the public funds. In order, then, to maintain schools, rate-bills were established. The first school-house built in this county was at Sugar-Tree Grove, in Hale Township, in 1832. It was made of logs, and was 14x16 ft. For windows there was one log sawed out, and small panes of glass placed in around the room. The floor was puncheon, as also were the seats and desks. This house w^as used for school for about eight years, when it was burned. The first teacher in the county taught this school. Miss Martha Junkin, from Ohio. People came from the distance of four and five miles, showing much interest under the difficulties experienced in early education, as in other matters. 132 HISTORY OF WARREN COUNTY. On March 6, 1834, School District No. 1, Monmouth Township was organized, consisting of twelve sections in said township, and four sec- tions in Hale Township. We give below a verbatim copy of the first annual reports of Trustees ot Monmouth District 'No. 1, filed in October, 1834. "There are in this district fifty children over five and under twenty-one years of age. There has been a school kept three montlis since the organ- ization of this district. Twenty-five children have received tuition. The probable expense will be forty-five dollars. Gilbert TuRNBULL, ] rp^ . ,, James McCallon, j This school was "kept" in a log house with a dirt floor, and used for the common purpose of church, court house and school. It was situated on the southeast corner of Main and Xorth streets, and afterwards used for a blacksmitli shop. In 1835 a small fi-ame school house was built on the present site of the M. E. Church, but by no means were all the educational advantages afforded the youth in those days, to be found in the public schools. In fact, they were not provided till about twenty years later. It was at best but little chea]ier nor more efiicient than the jirivate or select schools. Good and efficient teachers were sometimes employed, but after serving one or two terms, it was common for them to throw off" the restraints of a School Board, and set up independently. Among the earlier teachers whose names are remembered, are Messrs. McElray, Crandall, Weltman, Kellum, Eandall and Gilbert Turnbull. The first female teacher was Mrs. Montgomery, who taught in her own room in a house on the present site of B. Parkes dwelling. This room was afterwards rented to Miss Paine, now Mrs. Gibson, who taught successfully for a number of terms. Mr. Wellman, who seems to be most distinctly remembered as a peda- gogue, taught in a log bouse, on the northeast corner of Broad.way and West Avenue. Other rooms were occupied, from time to time R. D. Hammond was the last teacher to occupy the old pioneer school house, liobert Gibson taught at the same time, on the north side of the square, where now stands J. B. Martin's market house. In 1848, the pioneer house was removed, and a more pretending edifice erected on the same ground. It had now become the duty of teachers to obtain certificates of qualifica- tion from the Commissioner, Mdio was by law also Superintendent of Scliools. In 1854, a Mr. Gray, teacher in the public school, abandoned it, "because," to use his own words, "it didn't pay." At the same time, W. B. Jenks was teaching a flourishing private school in the Prej-byterian church, and Miss Julia Madden another in the Christian church. The public school was revived again by Mr. A. II. Tracy, wdio opened his first term with nineteen pupils, and closed with ninety-one. Mr. Tracy, assisted by his wife, taught with success for several terms. In October, 1855, all public schools were made free, by virtue of the two mill tax. And here dates a new era in the history of schools of the county and state. The first effect of this change was to kill out the private or select schools, which had been so largely relied i;pon, and to more than double the number of pupils seeking instruction. Public attention Avas at once directed to the necessity of providing more am])le accommodations ; and new school houses became the order of the day. Something more than ample funds and good houses was required to meet the growling responsibilities, resulting from HISTORY OF WARREN COUNTY. 1.33 the new order of things, and what was true of Warren county, was equally so of the state at large. At a state convention of education, held in Chicago, in December, 1S56, much interest and new life was given to the system of public instruction, resulting from its deliberations. Among those who took active ]iart in discussions, Avere Xewton Bateman, Wm. Bross, Simeon AV'right, Supt. "Wells, and Prof. Turner. At this convention it was deter- mined to employ a state agent, for one year, to labor throughout the state in the interest of the public schools ; whose salary was $1,800, to be paid bv contributions. Warren county was represented in the convention by John A. Gordon, A. H. Tracy, and D. R. Stevens. Prof Simeon Wright was selected for the work of state agent, and Warren count}' enjoyed his services for a number of days. The result proved all the most sanguine had hoiked. Graded schools sprang up as by magic, all over the state, and public opinion took a long stride in the direction of progress and reform, and from these labors and efforts are due tlie present type of public instruction. AYARREX COUNTY AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. The Wan-en County Agricultural Society was organized August 7, ls52, at a public meeting held at the court house in Monmouth. The following temporary officers were then selected : Samuel Hallam, President ; J. G. Madden, Secretary ; G. W. Palmer, Vice President ; F. B. Weakley, Treasurer. The first annual election was held September 4, 1S52, resulting as follows : Samuel Hallam, President ; Robt. Gibson, Yice President ; J. G. Madden, Secretary ; Wm. Billings, Treasurer. The first annual Fair was held in the court house on Friday, Oct. 15, 1S52. One thousand people were in attendance. The premiums consisted of certificates, no cash prizes being offered. From tliis small beginning the Society's annual exhibition has advanced to a position as one of the best County Fairs in the state. Over $3,000 are annually offered in premiums ; the Fair is continued four days, and the total yearly attendance is about twenty-five thousand. Fair week is observed*^ as a general holiday, and entire" families flock in from all parts of AYarren and adjacent counties. The Society owns extensive grounds, and suitable and commodious build- ings, valued at about $12,000. The present officers of the association are : President, John B. McGinnis ; Vice President, A. H. Swain ; Secretary, Geo. C. Rankin ; Treasurer, Robt. M. Stevenson. Executive Committee : R. S. Patton, C. L. Buck, C. Hardin, L. D. Robiuhon, J. T. Richards, II. D. Harding, J. E. Alexander, E. R. Houlton, L. II. Gilmore. The twentv-sixth annual Fair will occur September 11, 12, 13, and 14, 1877. WARREX COUNTY LIBRARY" AXD READING ROOM ASSO- CIATION. This Library has resulted from a number of movements iu the direc- tion of a Public Library. The matter was considered and discussed in a variety of forms, tor years before it reached a successful organization. In 1867 the attempt was made to start a Library as a joint stock 134 HISTORY OF WAEREN COUNTY. association ; but the subscriptions were insufficient. The same year, the Evano-elical Union of Monmouth, composed of representatives of the churches in Monmouth, took the subject under consideration, and gave it a new impulse. After consultation with many citizens, who were willing to assist, it was determined to form a corporation independent of the Evan- gelical Union. It was evident that a Public Library, such as was demanded to meet the wants, common and special, of this intelligent community, would need a large amount of money given for this purpose. Accordingly, a Trust Corporation was organized, after the manner of many of the oldest and most successful institutions of the East, for benevolent and educational purposes. The Constitution and Kules were drafted by Hon. Ivory Quimby, whose sound judgment and deep interest in the project assured a good beginning in this important respect. He also provided a room, free of expense, until his death. Twenty-five persons became responsible for the sum of twenty-five hundred dollars, for the purpose of sustaining a Reading Eoom during two years. These original In;-orporators and Directors were the following : J. E. Alexander, F. E. Armsby, Draper Babcock, F. M. Bruner, W. G. Bone, J. S. Clark, J. L. Dryden, Chancy Hardin, Robert Holloway, A. H. Holt, J. M. Jameison, Wm. Laferty, James Long, R. C. Matthews, W. P. Pressly, D. P. Phelps, Ivory Quimby, N. A. Rankin, J. K. Ripley, T. H. Rogers, E. R. Smith, A. H. Swain, Wm. Smiley, D. A. Wallace, J. R. Webster. A Reading Room, well supplied with papers and periodicals was opened June 1st, 1868, under the name of the Monmouth Reading Room and Library. This was sustained for two years. No books were bought, as there were no funds for that purpose. During all this time, unknown to any one, these small beginnings were closely considered by a friend, who was only waiting to see the evidences of permanent success and usefulness. Early in the year 1870, Mr. W. P. Pressly made an offer of the gift of a Library Building, which he erected the same year. This building was given with the condition, that the net rents of the two storerooms on the first floor should be used to buy books, and the second story should be used as a Library Hall and Reading Room. He expressed the desire that the plan of the Library should be enlarged, so as to benefit the country as well as the city. The following are his published words: "Insomuch as under God we are principally indebted to the citizens of the counti'y for the means to be used in its construction, if for no higher motive, gratitude towards them bids us now remember them as a party to be benefited, and thus made a party interested in patronizing and sustaining their own Institution." It was therefore legally incorporated as "The Warren County Library and Reading Room Association," and special provisions were made for the benefit of readers in the country. The same year the Board of County Supervisors united in the perma- nent founding of the Library, by making a grant thereto "Of all rents, profits and issues hereafter accruing from the Seminary Block," and receiv- ing the right in the Constitution of the Association to appoint one of the Trustees. Dr. Henry Tubbs has held that ])osition ever since, by repeated appointments from the Board of Supervisors. Under his judicious super- vision, the Constitution was amended, making equitable provision for the entire county. HISTORY OF WARREN COUNTY. 135 The income from the County Grant is required to l>e devoted to the purchase of books, most of wliich must l)e in the Department of Ai^ricult- ure and the Practical Arts. In this way, according to the Charter, any Department can be founded, bearing the name of the founder, and restricted to any special class of books. The plan of extending the use of the Library to the country, has been eminently a success. It is used in everj'- township in the county ; and it has brought within its sphere a population sufficiently large to support and use a strong and well equipped library. For this purpose the population of the city alone is not sufficient, as the general experience of libraries has shown. The hand that gave to the Library this opportunit}- for extended usefulness has continued to strengthen and cherish it. It has received from him, again and again, for the purpose of printing a catalogue, for the enlargement of the lot, and for the increase of the endowment tund. This community has never received from any other citizen as large a public gift as it has from Mr. Pressly. As the Librar}' was founded for the benefit of all, it has been sustained and favored by all classes of citizens in town and country. The young and the old are constantly to be seen at its tables. The ladies, by various efforts, furnished the room, and none frequent it more than they. Farmers for ten or fifteen miles around use the books and magazines in their homes. Pro- fessional men and business men have given freely to its support in money, and what is equally important, in careful attention to its interests. Fore- most among such should be named the late and lamented AVm. Laferty, who was for eight years its treasurer. Each year he gave it a generous gift, and he gave to it much time and affectionate attention. His practical busi- ness ability and excellent judgment have been of untold value to it during these years when its character was formino^. Much of the work which has made the Library successful has been gratuitously done by the officers, trustees, directors and various commit- tees. The business matters have alwaj's been in the hands of careful busi- ness men in the Committees on the Building and on Finance, and on the Auditing Committee. The selection of reading matter is done by a com- mittee representing both town and county. A committee on Book Notices calls attention through the press to the best reading. A committee of Reference give their aid in the room to readers desiring information or guidance. A cataloguing committee does the current cataloguing and pre- pares the bulletins. The most approved methods of lil)rary management are in use. A printed catalogue was issued in ISTrt, and monthly bulletins have been printed since, showing what accessions have been made. An indicator shows what volumes or magazines are on the shelves, and what are in use. A card catalogue has just been constructed, from the bulletins, to supple- ment the catalogue of 1874. Special manuscript bulletins ar-; posted up in the room from time to time, giving lists of works on subjects of present interest. Readers are urged to recomniend books for ])urchase, with the assurance that such will be bought unless good reason ei^sts to the con- trary. New books are bought each month. The reading is fresh, popular and wholesome. The selections are made with careful fairness toward all classes of readers, and careful regard for the good of the community. That which is worthless or immoral is not bought, oris withdrawn if accidentally obtained. 186 HISTORY OF WARREN COUNTY. The proportion of books bought in different departments is determined raainlj b}" the reading and requests of adult readers, except where special funds are provided for some department, as is the case for M'orks on agricul- ture and the useful arts. According to this rule the selections are about one-third in science, arts, philosophy and general literature; one-third in history, biography and travels; one-third in fiction and poetry. The number of volumes in the library (April 2, 1877,) is 4,850. Of these 600 have been donated by citizens, and 4,250 purchased. For this purpose the Pressly rents produce one thousand dollars per year, and the county grant about three hundred dollars per year. About 800 volumes are added each year. One hundred and twenty magazines and papers are regu- larly received. Many of these are gifts from friends. The last year's cir- culation of books M'as 16,564. The daily attendance in the reading room averages about 120. About 1,000 persons use the library. The permanent funds have increased each year by donations and sale of perpetual tickets. That which is received by gift goes to the permanent upbuilding of the in- stitution. The small charge made for the use of the library is only intended to cover current expenses, as salaries, fuel, etc. The building and books are provided without expense to readers. Many of the citizens of the county have obtained perpetual tickets, giving to their families the continual use of the library. About one-half the settled ministers of the county now have tree use of the librarj' by the kindness of friends who have purchased this right for them. This privilege is gladly extended in this way to any person or class for whom tickets are provided, either annual or perpetual. The library has one price and one rule for all. The charge is as low as it can safely be made. But there is no limit to the extent to which perpetual free tickets can be endowed by those who wish to benefit others, or their own families, in this way. It is needful to remember that only six years have elapsed since the library was first opened for loan of books. Its plan includes many impor- tant features not yet attempted for want of sufficient means, such as a free reading room, branch libraries at other points, special .departments of books not in general demand, full and frequent catalogues, endowed free tickets, and methods of extending the usefnlness of the institution. In all that has been done, this rule has been constantly followed : " Pay as you go." This principle has been impresse.i upon the enterprise by the prudent business men who have founded and prohibited the incurring of debts and the attempting of more than the means warrant. Thus a founda- tion has been laid, broad and deep, on which the future will build. Already, as a county library it has no superior, and it has obtained a high name and position among the public libraries of the AVest.

The Warren County Sunday Schools are sixty-five in number at date of last annual report of the County S. S. Association, October, 26-7, 1870; have an attendance of seven thousand persons, about one-third of whom are adults and two-thirds children. These are not quite half the children of school age in the county. The Sunday schools are nearly all connected with the churches, and nearlv everv church organization has its Sundav school. The International Series of Uniform Lessons is in use by most of the schools. The Sunday schools are located in the several townships as follows: Kelly, 4; Sumner, 2; Monmouth, 9; Floyd, 4; Tompkins, 5; Roseville, 5; Greenbush, 4; Point Pleasant, 1; Spring Grove, 6; Hale. 3; Coldbrook, 3; Lenox, 5; Ellison, 6; Berwick, 4; Swan, 4.

Sanborn, Hazen Bedell, and John McNeil, coramissionei's, to locate the permanent seat of justice, and on the 7tli of April following they, in a sealed package, directed to the county commissioners : " Respectfully report that we have located the seat of justice for said county, on the south-west quarter of Section twenty-nine, in township Eleven North, and range Two west of the Fourth principal meridian, which said quarter section is reported and believed to be Congress land, and they have given the said seat of justice the name of Monmouth." At the court, held June 12, 1831, orders for proposals to erect^a court- house were issued as follows ; * * * " That said proposals be received, and contracts entered into for the purpose of building a court-house of twenty by twenty-two feet on the ground, nine feet between the sleepers and joists, to be built of logs hewn down inside and out, and finished as the county commissioners shall direct, at the time and place aforesaid, and in such lot as they shall designate." The contract for building the court-house, after the usual manner of crying it, was let to Francis Kendall for the sum of fifty-seven dollars. To this he was allowed three dollars for additional expense incurred. The Commissioners' Court had met just si^ days previous to this, and ordered a sale of lots in the town of Monmouth. The site had been surveyed by the surveyor, Peter Butler, for which he received twenty-one cents per lot, three hundred and twenty stakes being required. The order for sale read as follows : " The highest and best bidder to be the purchaser, provided the larjre or out lots be not sold, unless the bid offered shall amount to at least two dollars per acre. "The bid on the in lots be not less than four dollars per lot, and those adjoining the public square not to be sold unless the bid offered be at least ten dollars per lot. "The lots will be offered, with a few exceptions, alternately, and the pur- chaser or purchasers will receive a certificate of purchase, and required to give three separate notes of equal payments with approved security, pay- able in twelve, eighteen and twenty-four months, subject to a discount of 142 HISTORY OF WAREEN COUNTY. twelve and a half per cent, on all moneys paid for said lots before due, cal- culating from the time paid ; also subject to a discount of twelve and a haif per cent, on the amount or price of each lot, on which a comfortable cabin or dwelling-house, store, grocery, or mechanic's shop shall be erected and finished suitable to live in, within one year from the sale of said lot.'- At this sale, held on June 6th, forty-six purchases were made and recorded, aggregating in value $965.62^. At the Special Term of the Commissioners' Court, held July 9, 1830, it was '' On motion, ordered, That the temporary county seat of justice, or place of holding County Commissioners courts and Circuit courts, for the county of Warren, be held (until the permanent seat be located) at the upper house of Mr. Alexis Phelps, at the Yellow Banks, now Oquawka, Hen- derson countv, on fractional section Fifteen, in town Eleven north of Eange Five West."" The court-house was ready for occupancy early in the summer, and the records (M'hat few there were) were at once taken there. During the sum- mer and autumn but six buildings were erected, beside the court-house and jail. The former occupied the lot afterwards purchased by Capt. D. T. Denman, and on which his residence stood, while the latter was situated on the lot afterwards occupied by the wagon shop of William The first settlers were Daniel McXeil, Joel Hargrove, and Elijah Da- vidson, of whom one, the latter, is now living. The first mentioned of these persons opened the pioneer store of Mon- mouth; Daniel McNeil, the second; Stapp and Berry, the third, and the fourth by McCallon and Gibson. To open a grocery at that time, it was necessary to obtain a town license, in which generally was specified the prices to be charged for articles used in the keeping of customers. It appears that these trades people were accustomed to often combine the privilege of entertaining travelers with the grocery business, as there is on record in the county ofiice many items like the followincf : " For each meal victuals, - - - 25 cents. "For each night's lodging, - - - 634 cents. " For horse kept over night, - - - 25 cents. " For horse feed, - " - - - 121.3 cents. " For 1^ pint whiskey, gin, mm, wine or cordial, I2I2 cents. " For 3^ pint peach, I'rench or apple brandy, 25 cents." The above " scale of prices " was granted on November 25, 1835, when Warren county contained, according to a census taken then, 2,623 inhabi- tants, and was twentv-six miles Inroad and thirtv-six miles lonor; and when • t. CD ' Monmouth contained but seven houses, according to some authorities, and about eighty inhabitants, although, by the close of the year 1S37, there were eig-htv houses and 400 inhabitants. At the December term of the County Commissioners Court, in 1834, the first license to keep a tavern in Monmouth was granted to James M. Garrison, who gave a bond of $200, and paid for this license §5.00. The fol- lowing were the rates fixed in the license : '' Each meal of victuals, .... 25 cents. " Lodging per night, ..... I.2I2 cents. " Or if single bed be demanded, - - - 6)4 cents. " Keeping horse per night, - - - - 25 cents. HISTORY OF WAREEN COUNTY. 143 " Single ft'cd for horse, ----- 1232 cents. " Each half pint of wine, rum, gin or brandy of any kind, 25 cent.s. " (Less quantity in same proportion.) " Each half pint of whiskej-, - . - - I2i^ cents. "Each gill of whiskey, - - - - 6I4 cents." The licenses for opening stores were generally from seven to ten dollars and were renewable each year. S. Phelps & Co. were granted one at the June term, ls35, for §8.00. Elijah Davidson, the first grocery man, was given his license December 5, 1881, for $2.50. He was appointed county treasurer in the spring of 1832, and held the office several years. Martin ^IcCowen was granted license to open a grocery in 1884, and, as in all gro- cery licenses, the rates of charges were also given. W. B. Stapp and ^V . S. Berry were granted license to '* vend merchandise" in the summer of 1835, and paid sll license fee. At the same time Ferdinand Vandyke and AV^illiam Tracy received their permits for the same purpose. James P. Hogue, James McCallon and AV. F. Smith's permits were given at the same time, and from that time, names of the old merchants often appear on the old records, showing that Monmouth was increasing rapidly in business and population. During these five years it had only been a village, but the citizens were activel}- discussing the feasibility of formino- a town government, and enjoying a town's privileges. James McCallon, Daniel McNeil, Jr., and others, were the most energetic in this move, and finally in compliance with the general demand, posted notices in the most conspicuous places in town, said notices informing the '' legally qualified voters of the town of Monmouth" that a meeting to determine this ques- tion would be held at the school house on ^November 29, 1836. The proceedings to incorporate Monmouth as a town, as recorded, were commenced at this date. These proceedings were under the general law of the State in force at that time, being the act approved February 12, 1831, entitled "an act to incorporate the inhabitants of such towns as may wish to be incorporated." Ten days prior to November 29th, a notice had been publicly posted up in compliance to law, and in pursuance of this call " the male citizens of the town of Monmouth" met at the school house at this date, and having organized by calling Elijah Davidson to he chair, and Harry Jennings as clerk, "the object of the meetino: was fuliv set forth" and voting for and against the incorporation of the town commenced. Twenty-three votes were cast in favor of the incorporation and none against. The voters were: Wm. F. Smith, Daniel McXeil, Jr., E. AV. McMillen, MorJecai Mc Bride, B. F, Berry, Yost Hufiman, J. J, Caldwell, G. W. Vaugan, J. P. Hogue, Samuel Brazelton, Geo. H. "Wright, Alex. Hogue, F. "V^andyke, James McCallon, S. T. McBride, Thos. Butler, Andrew liobiiison, Frank Kendell, Peter I. Dodge, Thos. G. Hogue, Elijah David- son, Harry Jennings and Alex. Bitchie. It was at once ordered that an election be held on December 5tli following, for five trustees to serve twelve months, or until their successors were qualified. At this time Elijah Davidson, Daniel McXeil. Jr., James McCallon. Alex, liitchie and George H. \\' right were duly elected, and at once qualified. Daniel McXeil, Jr., was chosen President of this Board of Trustees and Harry Jennings, Clerk and Treasurer. The first official act of this Board was the passing of the following ordinance, at their meeting held on Decem- ber 26, at the house of James McCallon : 14:4 HISTORY OF WARREN COUNTY. "Ordinance 1st. — Be it ordained by the President and Trustees of the Town of Monmouth, in council convened, that the corporation and jurisdic- tion of the officers of the Town of Monmouth be one-half mile east, one- half mile west, one-half mile south and one-half mile north from the center of the Public Square, containing one mile square." Other ordinances were also passed for the government of the town, for the regulation of public houses and groceries, the punishment of offenders, regulating the running at large of stock and any and all affairs pertaining to the welfare of a town. Under this form of government the town was controlled, with several changes in the rulers, until 1852, when the General Assembly passed the following Act, approved June 21st, of that year : " Section 1. — Be it enacted by the people of the State of Illinois, rep- resented in the General Assembly, That the inhabitants of the Town of Monmouth, in the county of Warren and State of Illinois, be, and are hereby constituted a body politic and corporate, by the name and style of ' The City of Monmouth,' and by that name shall have perpetual succession, and may have and use a common seal, which they may change and alter at pleasure." Section second fixes the boundaries at one mile from the center of the Public Square, each way, and section third provides for the division of the city into two wards. From that time forward the government has remained unchanged, save that the increase in population has made more wards and an increased num- ber of councilmen, there being two from each ward. The first election for mayor and other officers, under this act, was held on Saturday, October 23, 1852. Samuel Wood was elected to that office, and four aldermen, from the two wards, who convened for the trauoaction of business on November 3d, and fairly launched the city under the new government. Until the advent of the C, B. & Q. Railroad, in 1854, the grow^th ot Monmouth was slow. That year, however, the town sprang into active life, and improvements of every kind began to be made. The next year the college, whose history appears elsewhere, was located, and gave an additional impetus to persons looking for an intellectual home. A few years after, the library was founded, and made another prominent attraction. Good hotels were built, fine stores appeared, and the Union Hall, one of the largest in this part of the State, was erected. A fire company is now sustained, and but little danger is apprehended from that dread element. There are three good banks, two excellent weekly papers, and a monthly, issued in the interests of the college. Eleven churches are sustained, whose membership will aggregate over two thousand. * The city is divided into four wards, in each of which a good school is maintained. The Post-Office. — Daniel McNeil was the earliest postmaster appointed in the county. On September 10, 1830, lie, acting as county clerk, advised the Postmaster General at Washington City, that the county of Warren was now established according to law. and that the county seat was estab- lished at Lower Yellow Banks, on the Mississippi River, on the 9th of July, preceding. This place being about half way between Des Moines River and Rock River rapids, did "request the Postmaster General to establish HISTORY Oi* WARREN COUNTY. 145 tlie post-office, to be called the ' Warren Court House Post-Office,' and further request him to forward the mail iini'.iediately to said office from Fulton county, Schuyler county, or from Yenus, Hancock county." This request was complied with, and Mr. McNeil appointed to the office. As soon as the Indian hostilities commenced, he was compelled to remove from YeUow Banks to a place of safety. He came to Monmouth, but there being no house there, he repaired to an old camp, about a mile northeast. This he repaired and occupied some time, and here, during the first week, his wife killed two large rattlesnakes in the house. He carried the letters generally in his hat, and when meeting any one for whom he had mail, would hail them, take oif his hat and deliver them their letters. On one occasion, on removing his portable post-office, the mail was blown away by a tierce wind prevailing at the time. It occasioned him no little trouble to find it. The postage at that time was from ten to twenty five cents on each letter, and money being scarce, tlie recipient of the letter would often be compelled to forego the pleasure of reading it for several days until he could get the money to pay the postage. Then, letters were carried without being prepaid, but could remain but a few weeks in the office, when they were forwarded to the Dead-Letter Office. As soon as the town of Mon- mouth was established an office was made there. It now does a lar«j-e busi- ness, ranking as a second-class office. Its report for 1876 shows that there were sold, 352,127 stamps, stamped envelopes and postal cards. For these $7,011.3(3 were received. There were 2,626 money orders issued, which amounted to §31,055.41 in value; 1,920 orders were paid, amounting to $33,354.82; 60^ letters were registered, and 756 of this kind were received; 999 letters were sent to the Dead-Letter Office. This report shows that the office handled $72,021.59 during the year. The first bank established in the county was by Ivory Quinby. His was a priv^ate institution, and in it he was soon succeeded by the firm of Gregg & Hubbard. Afterwards a bank was opened by E. L. Chapman, which in the early part of 1862 was merged into the present First National Bank. This latter institution is one of the oldest in the United States, being the eighty-fifth established. In 1872 a private bank was opened by C. Jones & Co., which was also, on November 1, 1870, merged into a National bank, being the present ^[onmouth National. The Second National Bank was established in the early part of 1875. All these banks are in excellent condition and stand high in the mer- cantile world. MANUFACTORIES. The first two-horse cultivator for corn and the first two-horse planter were invented and made in this county. These enable one man to do the work of nearly six, and have been a saving of many millions of dollars liere- tofore paid for labor. These agricultural implements are now largely used in the Southern States in the cultivation of cotton. In 1859, W, S. Weir began experimenting with a corn jjIow, as the old methods of cultivating corn required so much labor, resulting in a plow for which a patent was first issued in December, 1862. In 1863, after thoroughly trying the invention, ^arrangements were made for manufacturing on a larger scale. The first shop was built in the 146 HISTORY OF WAKREN COUNTY. northwest part of the city, 24x36 feet, joined by a blacksmltli shop 24x30 feet. During the year, with the assistance of nine men, 400 plows were made. In the winter of 1864-5, 500 were manufactured and found a ready sale. The demand for these cultivators, at this time, necessitated a still further enlargement. A location was selected on Wood street, near the C, B. & Q. Railroad, where buildings were erected for wood work and foundry, the dimensions of which were 100x36 feet. A capital stock of $35,000 was rep- resented, and the force of men increased to twenty-five. For the season of 1866, 800 cultivators were made. Arrangements for ■ the completion of a larger number were made, the following season, and the work was carried on with vigor. On the morning of January 20, 1867, by some unexplained accident, the entire works, with contiguons buildings, were destroyed by fire, entailing a loss of $35,000, including 1,200 cultiva- tors stored in the building. Of this amount, $10,000 was covered by in- surance. By the first of March, a main building 34x36 feet, two stories high, was ready for business, together with a blacksmith shop 24x70, and a foundry 40x70 feet. Fifty men were employed, and 1,500 cultivators were in readiness for the spring trade. In the fall of 1867, the Weir Plow Company was organized with a cap- ital of $50,000. Three thousand cultivators were made in 1868 ; 4,000 in 1869 ; 6,500 in 1870. In the fall of this year the working force was increased to sixty men, and 10,000 cultivators were placed upon the market. The^ company has again increased the number of its employes, until they now give employment to over 300. In 1871 they erected their present shops, whose combined floors cover more than three acres. The capital invested is over $600,000, and about $5,000 worth of agricultural implements are made daily. Tlie Pattee brotliers, manufacturers of the " New Departure," tongue- less cultivator, obtained their patent in 1872, and commenced to manufac- ture at Buda. Bureau county. Two years after they erected shops here and commenced at once the manufacture. They have a large foundry, ma- chine and blacksmith shops, and make the cultivator from the crude mate- rial. They are daily in receipt of sufficient orders to exhaust all their man- ufactured stock. During 1876, 4,000 cultivators were sold in addition to those sold from Buda and lioseville. They are also made at this latter place. Mr. W. S. Hopper is also engaged extensively in the manufacture of a cultivator which finds a ready sale, more than 3,000 being now in use. His establishment is directly north of the C.,B. & Q.depot. He purchased the buildings in 1869, and in company with Mr. Palmer, began the making of his plows. His rrade has grown steadily and is chiefly in the western and southwestern states. Aside from the principal shops of the city, Monmouth contains one or two flouring mills, a good carriage and wagon factory, and a large number of shops of various kinds. The city enjoys a large trade with the surrounding country. As fine stores can be seen here as in any city west of Chicago, and many persons come from the farthest parts of the county to trade here. It has been shown elsewhere in these pages that the greater part of HISTOKY OF WARREN COUNTY. 147 the business of the residents of Warren county were eni^aged in agriculture and in stock raising, As an evidence of this and the amount of business done at Monmouth station, the following is given : " During die year endiug with December, the shipments on the C, B, & Q. from Monmouth, included 215 cars of hogs, 12,160 head ; eight cars of sheep, 682 head; 208 cars of cattle, 3,366 head; lOa cars of corn, -12,000 bushels ; 33 cars of oats, 16,300 bushels ; 18 cars of rye, 7,200 bushels ; 3 cars of barley, 1,200 bushels." THE SCHOOLS. The educational advantages of Monmouth have always maintained a liigli standard. In 1831 a private school was opened by Robert Black. He was shortly followed by Alpheus Russell, both linding their support in sub- scriptions. No public provision was made until 1834, when at the meeting of the County Commissioners, on May 6th, the petition of Jacob Rust and others to establish the boundaries of school district No. 1 was granted. This included Monmouth, and on the site of the present Methodist Episco- pal Church a frame school house, about eighteen feet square, was erected. This was a very comfortable structure, and was often used for other pur- poses, such as town meetings, religious services, or any public gathering. It was here, on the 29th of November, 1836, the election for the town or- ganization was held. On October 2d, 1834 the trustees of the Monmouth district made their tirst report to the County Commissioners. It reads as follows : "There are in this district fifty children between the ages of five and twenty-one years. There has been a school kept three months since the organization of the district. There have twenty-five children received tui- tion. The probable expense will be $45." This report is signed by Gilbert Turnbull and James McCallon, and appears to record the tirst public school in Monmouth. This small building was occupied several years. About the year 1840 it was sold and converted into a dwelling. On its site a much larger struc- ture was erected to accommodate the increasing school ])opulation. Ere long it was found to be insufficient, and several private schools were opened. The basement of the Presbyterian Church and the Christian Church were rented and occupied. This occurred about the year 1852 or '3. The schools were under the control of the town and city councils, but no active j)art seems to have been taken by either board until the year 1855, when at a meeting of the city council, in June, it was ordered that the sum of $2,500 be appropriated to erect the East Ward school house. This same autumn school was opened in the school house already in use, in the Christian Church, and in the basement of the Presbyterian Church. The council em- ployed Mr. W. B. Jenks to occupy the school house, who was to receive as compensation for his services three dollars per scholar in all common branches, and four dollars from each of those who ]Hirsued the higher studies. They employed Mr. A, II. Tracy for the Christian Church at the same terms. The East AVard house was completed and occupied during the years 1855-G, and gav^e ample room until 1858-9, when the school population had so increased that the West Ward school house was erected to accommodate them. It was found that the city council could not give the necessary at- 148 HISTORY OF WAEKEN COUNTT. tention to the schools they demanded, and the city charter was amended February 21, 1863, placing the care of the schools under a board of three directors. These were elected March 3d. They were John S. Spriggs, A. Young Graham and Nathaniel A. Rankin. For the years 1863-1 S. A. Hammer was by them elected principal, and also eleven teachers, six in the East Ward and live in the West. For the next year two principals were chosen, and the school term extended to six months. The same year the contract for the South school house was let. In 1867 the North Ward house was built, and the school year made nine months. The following year the South school house was enlarged. In 1869 the board of directors was in- creased to five, and each principal of a ward was made superintendent of that building, and under this plan the city schools are still conducted. The secretary of the board acts as city superintendent, though he takes no part in the instruction. The schools are in an excehent condition, and give em- ployment to twenty-two teachers, whose aggreggate monthly salaries are over $1,200. CHURCHES. The First United Presbyterian Church. This congregation was or- ganized by Eev. Robert Ross, May 9, 18.'S3, more than twenty-three years ago, as an Associate Reformed church. Nineteen persons united, whose names were as follows : John, Ann, Isabella and James S. Gowdy, Isabella Young, James G. and Martha E. Madden, T. AV. Smiley, John and Mary J. Saville, John E. Clark, Mrs. Clark, Robert A. Kendall, James E. McNair, Edward Kirk, Isabella Wal- lace, Julia A., Maria S. and Susan Madden. The tirst communion service was held June 1 Lth, following, when thirty-four persons sat down to the communion table, ten of whom now remain in the congregation. This church has received into her fellowship over fourteen hundred persons, and now has a membership of four hundred. The congregation worshipped in the court-house from the organization until the close of 1856, when the old college chapel was finished and services were conducted there. The chapel becoming too small for the increasing congregation, it was decided to erect a church edifice. During the last week of June, 1857, $6,000 were subscribed for that purpose, and building at once commenced. This structure (the present building) was completed in the early part of the summer of 1818, and the first services held therein on July lth of that year. From an anniversary sermon preached in May, 1876, by the pastor. Rev. J. G. Barnes, the following extracts relating to history of this denom- ination in Monmouth are taken : "The first As'sociate Reformed minister who preached in Monmouth was Rev. J. C. Porter, in the winter of 1817-'18. After the death of Rev. Willson, pastor of the Presbyterian Church, he preached for them at the request of the session, until they could obtain supplies of their own. He and other supplies preached in the court-house, generally to small audiences, until November, 1851, when a call was ex- tended to Rev. S. F. Vaunate, who afterwards lost his life by a shell on board a vessel on the Mississippi river, during the late war. An acadeniy having been established here by the Second Associate Presbytery of Illinois, it was thought best to find some one to take charge of both church and school. Dr. David A. Wallace, of East Boston, Mass., was called, who came, and on the second Sabbath of February, 1856, preached twice in the HISTORY OF WARREN COUNIT. 149 Baptist and once in the Presbyterian church. On the first Sabbath of Oc- tober, 1856, he entered upon his duties, and reinaiued in charge of both church and school till August, 1860, when he resigned his care of the former to give his entire attention to the latter. In the tall of 185S, the Theolog- ical Seminary of this denomination was removed from Oxford, Ohio, to Monmouth, and Dr. Young acted as pastor of the congregation until De- cember 31, 1862. In 1863, in April, a call was sent to Rev. David G, Bradford, now pastor of the Presbyterian Church at Princeton, Bureau county, which he accepted and remained in this relation until August, 1867. Rev. R. B. Ewing was the next pastor, coming in the spring of 1868, and remaining until tHinuarv 1, 1870. In May, of that year, the present pastor, Rev. Barnes, was called." The first officers of this church were James Gowdy and T. W. Smiley, elders, (still living), James C. Crawford, John P. Giles and Robert B. Da- vidson. The first Sabbath-school superintendent was Nathan Brown, Sr. There were five teachers and twenty-five scholars. There are now nearly two hundred scholars. On November 20, 1862, twenty-one members withdrew to form the Second United Presbyterian Church of Monmouth. The third church and the one at Kirkwood were also formerly part of this church. The Second United Presbyterian Church was organized at the house of Mr. A. Y. Graham, in Monmouth, October 25, 1862. The members were, prior to this time, communicants in the First United Presbyterian Church; but that becoming large and the membership somewhat scattered, it was desirous to form another congregation. The constituent meinbers were: M. A. Campbell, Catharine Graham, Mary C. Wolf, Esther J. Campbell, W. C. Brown, A. Y. Graham, M. D. Campbell, J. D. Wolf, James Findley, Lizzie Campbell, Prof J. C. Willson, Prof J. C. Hutchinson, R. M. Campbell, Lizzie W. AVillson, Lizzie Hutchinson, J. F. McCreary, James Strain, Eliz- abeth McCreary, and Nancy Strain — 19. Until the year 1866, they wor- shipped in the college chapel, when by this time they had so increased in numbers that a church edifice was deemed necessary. This was erected a little south of the college buildings, and cost the congregation about $10,000. When the church was oro^anized the Revs. A. Young: and Dr. D. A. Wal- lace were called as associate pastors, also being connected with the college. December 31, 1868, Dr. AYallace resigned to devote his entire time to the latter institution, and Dr. Young assumed the entire duties of pastor, con- tinuing until June 11, 1871. On August 11, 1872, Rev. D. M. Ure was called. He continued to fill the pulpit till August 4, 1874, when he re- signed. The present pastor. Rev. W. T. Campbell, was installed February 25, 1875. From a membership of nineteen, the church has grown to three liun- dred and seventy-five, and sustain a Sabbath-school of nearly or cpiite two hundred scholars. The Third U. P. Church was organized in January, 1867, in the South Ward school house, with forty members. A convenient house of worship was built soon after, and Rev. J. M. Henderson was the first pastor, from 1868 to 1873. Rev. D. R. Inches then succeeded to the pastorate, and con- tinued until the fall of 1876. Present number of members about forty. In Sabbath school seventy. No pastor at present. Swedish Lutheran Church. Was organized in March, 1868, with twenty-five members. The meetings lor divine worship were held in a 150 HISTORY OF WABREN COUifTY. building owned by Mr. John Beck, one of the principal constituent mem- bers. The presiding minister was Rev. — Dalstien, of Galesburg, who labored here as his time and circumstances would allow, for some time. Thev met in this room and in the court-house until the vear 1870, when they erected their present house of worship, costing about $1,400. They now number one hundred and twenty-five members, and control a Sunday- school of fifty scholars. The pastor is liev. E. Peterson. The Methodist Episcopal Church was organized over Daniel MclS^eil's store in 1840. The trustees elected at the organization were : L. C Wood- worth, Charh;s Cummings, Asa D. West, Alford Allen and Daniel McNeil. Two years before this time the persons professing this belief had met for divine worship in the same place, and as a result had gathered enough ad- herents to form the society. Kev. K. G. Bergman was presiding elder at the organization, and occasionally preached for them afterwards. In 1840, they erected a house of worship. This was used until about the year 1857. It was always known as the "Monmouth Chapel,'' being used for many public meetings of various kinds. About this time, becoming too small for the increasing congregation, it was removed and the present commodi- ous edifice erected upon its site. The following is a partial list of the min- isters of this church : Revs. C. Rowley, A. C. Price, J. P. Brooks, C. Springer, J. S. Cummings, E. Wasmuth, A. Magee, P, Warner, J. G. Evans, Wm. Underwood, L. Janes, and the present pastor, J. D. Smith, The membership is now 275, and the attendance at Sunday-school 200. The Baptist Church. This congi'egation occupy a very comfortable house of worship, heated by furnaces and supplied with stained glass win- dows. Several other churches in Monmouth have introduced these im- prov^ements, which aid much in the convenience and appearance of the buildings. This congregation was organized in 1844 at the house of Benj.C. Ward, with the following constituent members : Wm. F. Smith, Mrs. Geo. C. Lamphere, Mr. and Mrs. John Howard, Mr. and Mrs. Benj. C. Ward, and Mrs. Fry. Their earliest meetings were held in the present court house, under the ministry of Elder Bartlett, of Knoxville. For some time the services were held in private houses, principally in a room over the store of Deacon E. C. Babcock and in a room belono^ino- to Wm. F. Smith, on the southeast corner of the Square. In 1848 the first house of M^orship was built upon the present site, under the supervision of Elder Joseph Elliott and John Babcock, at a cost of $3,300. In 186S it was remodeled and improved, at an expense of $3,000, making the aggregate cost of the present striictnre $6,300. The present membership of the society is 175. The church main- tains a Sabbath school of 150 members and a Sunday school library of 250 volumes. The following are the names of the various pastors who have served this church, in the order of their pastorates : Eld. Bartlett, Eld. Wil. bur. Eld. Hovey, Eld. Monroe, Eld Levisee, Eld. Westorn, Eld. Joseph El- liott, Eld. Brimhall, Eld. Erastus Minor, Eld. Newton, Eld. Anson Tucker, Eld. Northrop, Eld. Tolman, Eld J. C. Miller, Eld. Wm. Bolton, Eld. H. B. Foskett, and then the present incumbent Eld. Harry Taylor. The First Presbyterian church of Warren county was organized in 1836, by Rev. Cyrus Riggs, and reported to the presbytery of Scliuyler, in session at Macomb, in that year. This was the church that afterwards took the name of "Fall Creek," and was dissolved by the presbytery and with their HISTORY OF WAKREN COUNTY. 151 own consent, Angiist 26, 1S73. Its membersliip had run down to seven or ei<^ht. and it was impossible to revive it. The Presbyterian church of Monmouth was organized by Eev. L. G. Bell, September I2d, 1837. At its organization there were sixteen mem- bers, all of whom being members of the First Church of Warren county, were dismissed to enter the new church. The new church had only occa- sional sup])lies of preaching until September, 1839, when its first pastor was settled. In the meantime services were held by Ilevs. L. G. Bell, ^[ich- ael Ilamer, James StaflPord, Joseph J. Craig and W. K. Stewart, all of \vhom are dead except Mr. Hammer and Mr. Craig. Rev. Bell moved to Iowa, and in that new territory spent his time in organizing and fostering new churches, until his death, some years ago. His remains were brought to Monmouth for interment. liev. Stewart, another pioneer of the church, died in Macomb, where he had been pastor for many ^^ears. In October, 1839, Rev. Samuel Wilson, then laboring at Rushville, was called to become pastor of the united churches of Monmouth and Fall Creek, and he was installed by the presbytery then in session in this place. This relation continued till August 15, 1847, when it was closed by his death. At that time the church numbered sixty-seven members. Until lsl:2 or 18-13 the church had no house, but worshipped in various places ; sometimes in a store-room on the corner of Broadway and the Square, now occupied by the Monmouth jSTational Bank building ; some- times in a room in the old American House, that stood where Claycomb's brick block now stands. J. F. Ilogue, one of the elders of the church, was proprietor of the hotel. Sometimes the meetings M'ere held in the court house, and it was at one of the meetings in the court house that Rev. Wil- son was installed pastor. On the 17th of April, 1842, Theodore Coburn and his wife deeded to the church the lot on which the present building stands. On the lot a small brick building was erected soon after the deed was given, and, becom- ing insecure, was taken down in 1851. In 1852 the present church building was erected, and some years ago was enlarged to accommodate the growing congregation. In the fall of 1851 Rev. R. C. Matthews, basing left the theological seminary, prepared to preach, visited Burlington, Iowa, where he chanced to become acquainted with a member of the church in Monmouth, and was invited to come over the river and preach, the church having no minister at that time. He came, and on the 20th of December, of that year, he preached his first sermon in the court house. The old brick church had been taken down and the new one was not finished, which was the reason for the meeting being held in the court house of Monmouih. The next day a congre- gational meeting was held, and the Doctor was invited to stay ^nd preach three months, which he accepted, and divided his time between Monmouth, Fall Creek and Xorth Henderson. On the 20th of March, 1852, he was called to become pastor of the church, by the acting elders, Robert Grant, James Dickson, Porter Phelps, A. C. Gregg and Hiram Xorcross. In December, 1852, he was regularly installed pastor, and continued as such, respected and beloved by his congregation and the entire community. During his ministry he has welcomed into the church seven hundred and eighteen members. The Sunday school. In the fall of 1838 the pastor organized the Sunday school and remained superintendent until 1840, when he was succeeded by 152 HISTORY OF WARREN COUNTY. Hev. Sarn'l. Wilson, who occii])ied both positions until about 1846. Tlie num- ber of scholars was from litteen to twenty, requiring the services of four or five teachers. One of these latter, Mr, John Leeper .remained as teacher about twenty-five years. In the autumn of 1861 the board of instruction organized under the con- stitution of the First Presbyterian church, and elected their officers. Tnat year 95 scholars attended one day during the last quarter of the year, being the greatest number of any one day. Twenty teachers were present. Dur- ing 1862-3 and '-4,— especially during 1863, — the school and church en- joyed a great season ot revival and largely increased ; 214 scholars and 29 "teachers are reported. On August 2d ttie school assembled for the first time in the basement of the church. For the year ending January 21st, 1866, 375 were reported enrolled. The lessons were prepared by Dr. Mat- thews. This school has steadily maintained a good growth. It has largely con- tributed of its members to the church, 225 of the scholars uniting therewith since 1852. It has helped sustain a mission school, given freely to other causes, and now is large and very prosperous. Four of its members have gone out as ministers, two as elders, six as superintendents and forty as teachers in the Sunday schools. The Christian Church. The earliest meetings of this congregation were held in the school house and in various halls in the (then) village. On March 31st. 1839, they were organized into a church by Elders Pliny Uatchett, Levi Hatchett and James R. Koss, Elijah Davidson was chosen clerk of this meeting and the following persons united : Elijah and Nancy Davidson, Hezekiah and Eleanor Davidson, Alex, and Rachel Davidson, Wm. C. and Mrs. M. Hall, Wm. C. Butler and his wife Rebecca, James Hodgson, Jacob L. and Xancy Bnzan, Amelia Ann Davidson, Solo- mon S. Davidson, Wm. B. Davidson, Elizabeth Davidson and Thos. H. Davidson, eighteen in all, of whom none are now members ; nearly all have died or reram^cd. In 1840 they built their first house of worship, which occupied a lot immediately north of the present Baldwin House. This church was taken away after doing good service as a house of worship and as school house, and, in the spring of 1861, the present building erected. It is a very comfortable structure and cost $5,000. The number of mem- bers is now 125, and the Sunday school approaching the same number. Resident ministers engaged in Christian Church since the organization in 1839 : Alexander Davidson, James E. Gaston, T. J. Mattock, J. W. Butler, L. S. Wallace, John Errett, A. P. Aten, F. M. Bruner, T. V. Berry, John Lagrange, J. M. Williams, Alex. Davidson, A. J. Cane, J. W. Errett, S. S. AVallace and J. W. Butler are some of the pastors who have labored here. The present occupant of the pulpit is Rev. F. M. Bruner. African M, E. Church. Was organized in a hall on Main street about ten years ago. There were twelve members, of whom Charles Knight, Frances Price, Zachariah Price, Harriet Lee and A. II. Knight, who acted as class leaders, M^ere the principal ones. In 1870 they erected a church cost- ing about $800, which tliey yet occupy. There are now twenty-two mem- bers and an attendance of fifteen scholars at the Sunday school. xYfrican Baptist Church. Was organized at the residence of Mrs. JSIil- ler, September 10th, 1866. There were but few members, the principal ones being Henry McCord and wife, and B. Granger and wife. A church was erected at the corner of East and Cherry streets, at an HISTORY OF WAKREN COUNTY. 153 e>rpense of ^1,500. It is still used. Their first pastor was Rev. J. C. Graves. Since then they have been ministered to by Rev. J. H. Bandy and others. They have at present thirty-one members and a Sunday school of forty scholars, THE PRESS. The Monmouth Atlas is the oldest newspaper published in this section of tlie country. It was started in the year 1845 by C. K. Smith. E. S. Byron and F. K. Smith were for a short time associated witli liiin m its manage- ment, but through his labor and perseverance the paper became a valuable contributor to the development of the country and its steady and prosper- ous growth. The present senior proprietor, Jno. S. Clark, purchased the establishment of Mr. Smith in 1857. In the fall of 1865 he sold an inter est to J. H. Reed, who assisted in its management until May, 1869, when Mr. R. was succeeded by Samuel S. Clark, and with an unimportant excep- tion, the business has since been conducted by Jno. S. Clark & Son. In their hands the establishment has increased to several times its dimensions when ])urchased bv Mr. Clark, more than twenty vears a^o, and the circu- lation of the paper has kept pace with the increase of population. Mr. Geo. Rankin is now connected with the paper. The Atlas is recognized as one of the leading and most prosperous Republican newspapers of the State. The Revieio was established in 1855 by the present editor and propri- etor, Mr. A. H. Swain, who has been a practical printer since 1815, learning his trade in Pennsj'lvania. He commenced the publication of the Revieio, bringing his material with him, in an old brick building on Main street, where he remained one year. At the expiration of that time he removed his presses to Patterson's block on East street, where he published the paper four years. lie then returned to Main street to a room in Carr's block, where he published the paper until 1876, when he removed the office to its present location in Kingsbury's block on Broadway. Mr. Svvain publishes the official Democratic paj)er of the county, and since its commencement has never missed a number. THE MONMOUTH COLLEGE, Originated with the members of the Second Associate Reformed Pres- bytery of Illinois, in a desire to provide means for affi^rding a Christian education to the youth of the church in the West, and to raise up properly qualified candidates for the ministry. Hence this Presbytery organized an academy at Monmouth. In 1855, it determined to raise it to the rank of a college, and appointed a board of trustees, who elected a president and two professors, and arranged for the opening of the college in September, 1856. In this movement Rev. J. C. Porter and Rev. R. Ross were among the most active. At the date fixed for opening, the building then in process of erection not being ready, the college was opened in the public school house, which is now occupied as a residence by Mr. Cowen, and stands on West avenue, east side, the third house from Broadway. At a meeting of the Associate Reformed Synod of Illinois, held in Keokuk, Iowa, October, 1856, the college was transferred to that Synod by the Presbytery. The Synod, in a series of resolutions, affirmed the princi- 154 HISTORY OF WABREN COUNTY. pies according to wliicli it intended the college to be conducted, and ap pointed trnstees. x\fter the consummation of the union constituting the United Presbyterian Church, the care and supervision of the college passed to the Synod of Illinois of that body. In 1868, the Synod of Iowa united with the Synod of Illinois in the maintenance and control of the college. "When the Synod of Kansas was organized out of the Synod of Illinois, it continued to share with the Synod of Illinois its res])onsibilities to the col- lege. In 1874 a plan of union was agreed ujion by the synods above named with the Second Synod of the West, in accordance with which it also became a part of the constituency of the college. The synods now comprised in this union are the Second Synod of the West, and the Synods ot Illinois, Iowa and Kansas. These synods contain 244 ministers, 317 churches, and over 20,000 communicants. The original act of incorporation was approved Feb. 16, 1857. It cre- ated the board of trustees, a body corporate and politic by the name and style of "The Monmouth College," and gave them customary powers. It vested in the Associate Reformed Synod of Illinois the power of appointing three-fourths of the trustees, and in the trustees themselves one-fourth. An act was signed Feb. 18, 1859, so amending the original act as to give to the " United " Presbyterian Synod of Illinois the poM^ers before vested in the Associate Reformed Synod. The charter was furtlier amended in 1869, after the union of the Synod of Iowa with the Synod of Illinois in the man- agement of the college. The charter, as amended, adjusted the government of the college to its new relations, and provided for the admission of other bodies to its constituency. The first college building was erected on the block of land donated by Hon. A. C. Harding, located in the northwest section of the city of Mon- mouth. It was about 40x60 feet, two stories, and contained a chapel and eight rooms. In 1860, Messrs. A. Y. and D. Graham donated to the col- lege ten acres situated on Broadway, in the eastern part of the city, together with one-sixth of the remainder of the quarter of which it was a part. The board immediately took measures to erect on the proffered site anew build- ing suited to ihe growing wants of the college. The work commenced in 1861, and on the 12th day of May, 1863, the professors and students took possession of the building. It is 50x80 feet, three stories high above the basement, and contains eighteen rooms. It cost, including furniture and fences, about $20,000. In 1875 it was found that this building was too small for the wants of the college, and steps were taken for the erection of an addition, 50x60, on the north side of the old building, at a cost of about $14,000. It is now finished. It is three stories high above the base- ment, of the same style of architectui-e as the old, and will contain a chapel and eight other rooms in addition to those in the basement. The enlarged structure will iurnish ample accommodations for the wants of the college. The preparatory classes below the sub-Freshman are heard in the original college building known as the academy. The first attemjit to endow the college was made on the Scholarship system. The original scholarship entitled the purchaser to the perpetual tuition of one student. It cost $100. The purchaser could pay cash for it or give his note bearing 6 per cent, interest per annum. Afterwards the sale of this class of scliolarships was stop])ed, and a new one oHered, enti- tling to 20 years tuition, for $100 in cash, or for a note bearing intcrst at the rate of ten per cent, per annum. Subsequently it was determined to sell I ^ SHERIFF, WARREN COUNTY ILLS. ^ J HISTORY OF WAKREN COUNTY. 157 no more scholarships at this rate. In lieu thereof, for every one hundred dollars, scrip was issued entitling to tuition, at current rates, to the amount of $200, payable one-tenth annually. Again this pl«n was modified by giving scrip for the sum donated, dollar for dollar, entitling to tuition to the amount of the face of it, at the rates current at the time of the sale. Many thousands of dollars were thus secured. Finally, however, all these schemes were abandoned, because the education promised by the college cost it more than the principal and interest of the money paid for the scholarship amounted to. Endowment on this principle was found to be impossible! In 1871, it was determined to solicit donations, without any tuition in turn, for the Endowment fund. On this ])]an over $75,000 have been secured, which is being collected and invested in bonds secured by mortgage or real estate, and bearing interest at the rate of ten per cent, per annum. A few thousand dollars have also been secured by the sale of a perpetual scholarship for $1,000. The first President of the College was Kev. David A. Wallace, who still holds the place.

Truman Eldridge, who now' occupies one of the most inviting farms and liomes witliin the Corporation, came, in 1836, from Hancock, Mass., and took 240 acres, a part of which is embraced in the northwest portion of the village. Shortly after he returned to his home and spent two years, and in 1838 returned, and in 1839 built a home and commenced the improve- ment of his land. In 1818 he took up, at the government price, 80 acres more, directly north, and in 1850 bought 160 acres more, embracing the nort]iea5.t portion of the Corporation. The southeast quarter section was bought thirty-four years ago by Solomon Sovereign, and thirty years ago the southwest by John Reeves. The Corporation, one mile square, laid out in streets at right angles, embraces equal portions of these four quarter sections. The first store was opened on a small scale by John Adams, in 1856, a little south of where it now stands, on the southwest corner of Penn ave- nue and Main street. The brick building owned by E. Pierce occupies its original site. Soon N. W. Baker succeeded John Adams, and not long after, Dally and Arter, and these were succeeded by E. P. Emans, who now owns and occupies a two story frame on the northwest corner. The tirst township meeting was held in the old Union Church, on April 1, 1851. Truman Eld ridge presided at the meeting, and at its close the first township officers we'.e chosen. Until the advent of the C. B. & Q. Railroad, almost all the produce was taken to Oquawka there to be shipped to St. Louis by tlie Mississippi River. When the railroad was completed trade was changed to Monmouth, and a local trade was started in Roseville. New Lancaster and Elliston, a few miles west, were enjoying quite a local trade, which continued until 1870. During the summer of this year, the Rockford, Rock Island & St. Louis Railroad was completed through the county. This was the beginning of the prosperity of Roseville. It was now properly platted and the plat recorded by John A. Gordon, in the name of Mr. Eidridge and others of the most active residents, and an active trade at once opened. The stores and shops at J^ew Lancaster were moved here, and the town from being a " corners," as it was commonly called, rapidly arose to a "town," with its attendant privileges. Mr. John A. Gordon opened the depot and held the position several years. Mr. Eidridge gave several lots to those who would erect shops or stores thereon, not a few of which liberal ofiers were accepted. On May 8, 1871, the town had attained a population of 511 inhabitants, and was incorporated. Since then the population has increased to nearly 900. In 1856, Mr. James G. Reed located at the school house, about a mile east of the village. Here he commenced work as a blacksmith. Shortly after, he removed his shop to Roseville, where he added to his small shop a room about sixteen by twenty-four feet. He soon purchased an engine to aid him in his rapidly growing trade, and increased the number of his employes. About a year ago the present firm was organized, and a still further increase in the buildings and machin- ery made. Their speciality is windmills, plows and tongueless cultivators. Quite a number of shops are maintained, good stores, one bank and an excellent flouring mill. 162 HISTORY OF WAKREN COUNTY. THE SCHOOLS. The earliest attempts to educate the youth of this community was made in a small log school house, about one mile south of the site of the village. The frame school house east of town was next built. At its location there was a shop and small store, and the residents entertained some hopes of securing a town here. School was maintained here until a few years ago, when it was removed to town and the present edifice constructed. It is a two story building, capable of accommodating two hundred scholars; 156 are now in attendance. Three teachers are employed. THE CHURCHES. The Oongregationalist Church was organized November 15, 1851, by President Blanchard, then of Galesburg. and consisted of eleven members, whose names were Stephen and Phoebe DtWey, "William and Mary D^lley, David and Elizabeth Tuttle, Mrs. Elizabeth Axtell, and Miss Eunice Rob- inson. Four years after the organization they erected the present church building, at an expense of $3,000 dollars. The lumber was brought from Oquawka. Some time after, they erected the parsonage, worth $2,000. Rev. Asa Martin commenced his labors here, at a salary of $120 per year, in 1851, and remained one year. He was succeeded by Rev. J. A. Rodgers, the first installed pastor, who remained until 1858. He is now president of Berean College, Kentucky. Rev. A. R. Mitchell was called to succeed him, and occupied the pulpit until 1861. He was followed by Rev, Alfred Morse, who remained three years and was succeeded by Rev. Cyrus H. Eaton, from 1861: to 1867. Then Rev. Arthur E. Arnold filled the pulpit until 1868. From that date until the early part of 1877 the pulpit was occupied by Rev. J. D. Wykofi". The present pastor, Rev. R. A. Wood, has just lately been installed. The membership is now 100, the attendance at Sunday-school 75. The Baptist Church was organized in 1852 by Rev. S. G. Miner. It now numbers 175 members and 100 Sunday-school scholars. The organ- ization was perfected in a school house, about one mile east of the present site of the town, with about 25 members. When the school house was erected in town, they used it for divine worship until they erected their present church. It cost about $2,000 dollars. The following have been some of the pastors of this charch : Elders Joseph Elliott, Morse and J. D. Kent. The present pastor is E. C. Cady. The Methodist Episcopal Church is the outgrowth of a class of some half dozen members organized in 1839, who were Solomon Sovereign and wife, John Jared, Sr. and wife, Mrs. Sisson, Mrs. Welty, Mrs. Kirk})atriek. Thev held their first meetings in Jared's school house, about three miles southeast of Roseville. In the fall of 18-1:1, and until the spring of 1842, the meetings were held in Josiah Kirkpatrick's house, about two and a half miles south of Roseville. They were then held at Solomon Sovereign's house, now used for a hotel by Eli Gilbert, opposite the depot. The nieet- in(>-s were held in tliis h(»use until the first school house was built. This served as a sanctuaiy until the present church and parsonage were built in 1867, at a cost of $5,500. This class, in its infancy, formed one of the ap- pointments on the Aquawka circuit, which included all of what is now HISTORY 01? WARREN COUNTY. 163 Henderson and Warren counties.

Allen the present energetic pastor under whose labors the past winter seventy-live members have been added to the church, making the present membership one hundred and seventy-seven, with a Sabbath school of one hundred scholars. The Christian Church was organized in 1859, or 1860, with about 25 members. There are now more than double that number, and a Sunday- school of nearly 50 scholars. In 1871 they erected a comfortable church, costing about $1,500. Their parsonage is worth about $800. The Rev. George L. Brackan is the present pastor. The Lutheran Churcli, composed mostly of Swedes, comprises a mem- bership of 35. They were organized into a body ecclesiastic February 26, 1876, with 26 members, and on October 29, following, dedicated their present house of worship. Rev. G. Wiberg occupies the pul])it, minister- ing part of his time irt other places. The Sunday-school numbers about 25 scholars. The Union Baptist Church was organized in 1841 or '5 in an old school house. It was used for some time for both purposes, and in it the first township meetings were held. The members had belonged to the Berwick Church and ortjanized here, this being a more central location. They have now a very comfortable church and sustain a regular meeting. Talbott's Creek Christian Church was organized about 1838-9, and for some time included the Cameron and Alexis members. Joseph Murphy and L. S. Wallace were among the first elders. John E. Murphy, Thos. Wallace, Wm. Wallace, Wm. Murphy and AYm. Hop- per, with their families, were among the constituent members. John E. Murphy was the pioneer preacher among them. Thos. Griffith and Henry Bruner, father of the present pastor of Monmouth Churcli, were also early members. Their present church was erected near David Warren, an old member, and one who helped the church in its early trials. They occu- pied this building until 1855 or '6, when a house of worship was erected at an expense of $2,000, which they still occupy. They have a meml^ership of about one hundred, and sustain a Sunday school of about the same num- ber. Rev. D. D. Miller, pastor at Cameron, preaches here. This congre- gation has sent out several colonies, which are now large and growing churches. TuE Press. — Two weekly papers are sustained here. Wilson's Weekly, the vounger, was started about eijjht months since bv the Wilson brothers, two quite young men, and is already enjoying a good circulation. It is a good local paper, and a very creditable enterprise. 164: HISTORY OF WARREN COtlNTY, The Koseville Gazette, an independent family newspaper, by G. G. McCosh, Terms, ^1.50 per annum in advance.

R. twenty-one miles east from Burlington, la. In the year 1836 five families had located in this township, as follows : Samuel Hanna, Z. M. Davis, James Gibson, R. Tinkham, Benjamin Tompkins, after whom the township was named. Prior to the building of the railroad through this county, settlement was slowly made in this region, but on the completion of the road, in 1855, new life was infused and business sprang up as if by magic. In the year 1851 Da- vid Irvine laid out the original villao-e of Kirkwood to which two additions have been made, called Quinby's additions. For many years a brisk trade has been carried on here, especially in grain, which has hardly been surpassed by any town on any railroad lead- ing to Chicago. The village was incorporated in 1805, and the following were the first Trustees : O. Lanphere, J. L. Batcheler, J. Iv. Cummings, A. Carmichael and J. B. Sofield. The present board is, T. F. Lowther, Geo. Kellogg, A. C. Yan Riper, L. Rapalee, Wm. McCoy, W. K. and .1. H. Gilmore, Clerk. BUSINESS INTERESTS. The first store here was opened by Knowles, Ray & Chapin in 1855. The First National Bank is one of the solid institutions of this county, and ^ Theo. Bradley M. D. F?OSEVILLE HISTORY OF WARREN COUNTY. 165 is ably managed by Dr. Henry Tubbs, President, and Willard C. Tubbs, Cashier.

There are two neat and commodious school houses — six rooms — in which schools are maintained nine months of the year. The number of children enumerated by the census of 1876 is 482 in the village and in the town- ship 975. CHURCHES. The Presbyterian Church of Kirkwood was organized in 1856, and was first called South Henderson Church. Meetings were first held in a school house about two miles southwest of town. A committee had been appointed by Schuyler Presbytery to assist in the formation of the church. This committee was Rev. J. H. Kevins, P. C. Matthews, D. D., and Elders Hiram Norcross and James Boggs. At the organization there were twenty-six members, " of whom many have fallen to sleep, but a few re- main unto this day." The first elders were Jacob Ackerman, Alex. M. Ilervey and JS'athan Carr. Of these. Fathers Carr and Ackerman yet live, having more than fulfilled their four score years. The first stated "^preach- ing was by Rev. J. H. Nevins for one year. Then Rev. W. L. Lyons for three and a half years. From July, 1863, to April, 1865, was a vacancy, w4th occasional preaching by Dr. J. M. Jamison and others. At this lat- ter date Rev. J. W. Ash began his labors here, and was the regular supply for two years. Then Rev. J. W. Allen was here for two years, and dni-ing his administration a new and commodious church was built, 40 by 65 feet, and cost $11,000. In 1870 Rev. G. N. Johnson supplied for six months. Then Rev. J. Jrl. Marshall was stated supply for two and a half years. The pres- ent minister, Rev. E. W. Thompson, is the only installed pastor the church has ever had. He l)egan his labors here in 1874. The first house of wor- ship built by this Church was a small frame structure, 20 by 30 feet, in the south part of town, in 1858. For two or three years it was occupied by the M. E. congregation on alternate Sabbaths. This was afterwards sold to the Roman CathoHcs and moved ofi" the lot. In 186S the present church was erected, and is an eleo^ant jjothic structure. It M'as thorouofhlv refitted in 1875. The present membership is 125. An interesting Sabbath school is maintained throughout the year, with an attendance ot 125. E. P. Clau- son is superintendent.

Chapin and Geo. Williams. For some time services were held at Rap's Hall, where they re- mained until the completion of their church, which was dedicated in lsf;6, its cost being ^-1:,000. The church was rebuilt in 1869 at an additional cost of $;3,0( XI. Rev. C. L. Walsh preached tNvo years. Rev. A. Clayton one year. Rev. A. Tibl)itts two years. Rev. Hibbard eighteen months, L. H. Ta- bor three years. The present number of members thirty, with the same number of Sabbath school scholars. The M. E. Church was organized in 1856 at the Young America Ho- tel.

Rock- well and Jonathan Bufi'im came here on a prospecting tour in 1830 from Ashtabula county, Ohio, and found Adam Ritchie located in a small block house on the hill. This had been built by Ritchie in the previous year. HISTORY OF WARREN COUNTr. 167 Rockwell and BufFiin bought his claim of 160 acres, having upon it a mill site on Cedar Creek. Thev remained here durinij; the winter of 1830 and '31, and engaged in building a saw-mill, the first in the county. They returned in the fall to Ohio, and in xlpril, 1832, they set sail with their families and some others on a rafr down the Ohio river. They start- ed from AVarren county, Pa., and were four weeks on the raft in reaching Cincinnati. Here, after much delay, they took passage on a steamboat for St. Louis, and on arriving there found the same boat was going to Beards- town, and so continued their journey lo this point. From this latter place they went by ox teams to Canton, and then to their new homes on Cedar Creek. They added another block house near the first and built a stockade for fort. The nearest mill or postoffice was about seventy miles distant. Soon, however, the postoffice was established at this point and was first called Cedar Creek Postoffice, and in 1851 the name was changed to Denny at Waslmigton. In the spring of 1832 IJockwell and Bufi'un rented their saw-mill to Chester Potter, who was also from Ashtabula county, Ohio. He added a small pair of burrs for grinding wheat and corn. These mill- stones were only twelve and a half inches in diameter, but did the grinding for a large scope of country. Tney were made by Potter from a Granite Boulder or " Nigger-head" found on the prairie in this county. Potter, however, continued here only one year, when he moved to Kelly Tp. and set up a mill for himself on Henderson Creek. Buifun sold out his inter- est to Rockwell September 21st, 1832, and went to Fulton county, after- wards to Rock Island. On the 8th of August, 1835, L. P. Rockwell and D. G. Baldwin entered into agreement to build a large flouring mill, which re- sulted in the erection of the present Rockwell Mills. The first P. M. here was J. Buff'un, one year ; then L. P. Rockwell for about twenty years. He died in 1860. The first school was in 1831 — teacher. Miss Betsy Hopper. There is not a more pleasant location in thi:; county than Denny. LITTLE YORK. This vicinity was first settled in 1829, and was among the earliest in this county. Among those who first came here were : Matthew D. Ritchie, Otho W. Craig, William McCoy, Hugh Martin, Sr., and others. Much fear and some trouble was experienced from the Indians by the early settlers. A roving band of those desperadoes were skulking along the timber on Cedar Creek, on the 9th day of August, 1832, when five of their number rushed out, shot and scalped "VVilliam Martin, who was at work alone putting up hay. A block house had been built as a kind of fort, where persons and families resorted in time of supposed danger. Several women and children were at the fort at this time, and heard the shots, saw Martin fall, and the Indians run to him, shoot again, and seal]) him. The news spread rapidly, and caused great alarm among the inhabitants. Martin had been at the fort but a short time previous, was cautioned by the women about working alone, though it was not known that any Indians were in the vicinity. He returned to his work singing a favorite tune. The block house stood a few rods east from where now stands the pleasant residence of Hugh Martin, brother of AVilliam, and he was killed about eighty miles north. His body was not recovered until the next morning, 168 mSTOET OF WABEEN COUNTY. aud when examined, it was found that the last shot was made so near as to burn his clothing. A company of Rangers followed the trail of the Indians as far as Kew Boston, where tliey were just in time to see them in their canoes, nearly across the Mississipi)i river. They fired upon them, but did not avail to stop then-. An account of the trial of these murderers is given in another part of this work. The village of Little Rock was laid out in 1835 by William McCoy and M. D. Ritchie. James Kendall opened the first store in this vicinity, at the block house in 1833, and after his death, in the next year, his widow moved the goods to a building on the site of the village, and continued in the trade. This she sold to Arthur McFarland, who soon sold to J. F. Pol- lock, and he had a prosperous trade there for many years. He was the first P. M. for nearly twenty years. The first school was in 1837, taeght by Peter Turpening. At the present time there is a good school house and a good bell, with pleasant grounds ornamented with trees. The principal merchants are Messrs. Wallace & Morrison, general merchandise. There are two harness shops, three blacksmith shops, one wagon shop, and a boot and shoe shop. This village is located in a thriving and industrious farming commun- ity, and is in Sumner Township, twelve miles northwest from Monmouth. The U". P. Church of Little York was organized April 19th, 1863, by Rev. John Scott, D. D., of the Presbytery of Monmouth. At the formation of this church there were forty-one members from the U. P. churches of Cedar Creek and Henderson. The first pastor was Rev. Wm. H. McMillan. ordained and installed Oct. 1, 1864, who continued his labors for six years. The next pastor was Rev. W. T. Campbell, ordained and installed June 13, 1871, and continued four years. The present pastor is Rev. David Ander- son, who began his work here in October, 1875. This congregation own a pleasant and commodious house of worship, which cost $1,000, and a con- venient parsonage, recently built at a cost of $2,000. Tlie present number of members is 130. ALEXIS This village, though bearing the same name as the royal prince, is not a Russian Town. It was first called Alexandria and recently abbreviated to its present name for convenience. It is situated twelve miles north and east from Monmouth, and was laid out in Nov., is 70, by Robert Holloway and J. E. Alexander upon land owned by them. The first Iiousb was moved to the Town site Nov. 20, 1870, and upon the first train North on the Rock- ford, Rock Island and St. Louis R. R., J. E. Alexander moved his goods, and established the station. He has held the office of Station and Express Agent since the opening of the Raih-oad. The books of the Co. show that from this point there has been shipped 5(t0 cars of stock in a year, and, soine- times 140 cars of grain per month. The growth of the town has been rapid, and although a swee])ing fire in Jan., 1S77, destroyed nine business houses, new buildings are rising to take their place, showing the confidence there is in the stability of the town. There are four general stores, five groceries, two drug stores, two hard- ware and agricultural implements, one book and stationery store, two black- HISTOKY OF WARREN COUNTY. 169 smith shops, one flouring mill, one macliine shop, two himber yards and two hotels. A fine two story school house was built in 1874, cost $2,600, and the schools are well graded, Superintendent, C. Galloway. The number of children by examination of Sept., 1876, was 384. The first village Trustees came intooflice July 2s, ls73, and their names are as follows: John C. Blaney, Prest.; A G. Talbot, (). E. Bugbee, O. G. Chapman, James Loveridge, Daniel Churchill; John Douglas, Clerk, Chas, E. Johnson, Treasurer. — -The present Board is Peter Bogue, Prest.; Daniel Churchill, Hiram Ingersoll, James H.Shaw, Robert Knox, W. W. (xraham; Thos. B. Patterson, Clerk; Chas. E. Johnson Treas., and W. H. Brown Police Magistrate. The total population is about 7U0. PRESS. Mr. James Everett started the Alexis Journal -aX this ])lace in 1874. He had originally intended to make it an eiglit column, four page paper : but from some cause cut it down to seven columns, four pages, in which form the first number ap])eared, on February 13. 1874. and was continued imtil the close of volume three, in 1S77. Mr. Everett retired from its man- agement in August. 1876, having sold the office to Dr. Chaffee. At the close of V(»lume three, the prospect of its future seemed very gloomy, and it was decided to discontinue its ])ublieation. A few weeks later, having received sufficient encouragement, the Dr. concluded to resume, but decided to make a change in the name and style of the paper; accordingly the name was changed to The Alexis Index, and the size of the sheet enlarged to a five column, eight pages, a change which the ])roi)rietor feels assured was fully warranted, and is duly a])preciated by the peo])le. Its circulation and influence is steadily increasing, although its local advertising patronage has been materially cut down by the recent fire, and stringency of the times; still, the office is doing a fair business, remunerative toitsownei', and much of its loss of local advertising is compensated for by its Monmouth patron- age. ClIURCUBS. The United Presbyterian church was organized A])ril 4, 1871, by Pev. J. M. Henderson. Meetings were first held at a school house some two miles distant.

Matthew Bigger of the Presbytery of Monmouth, with fifty-one members. The first pastor was Rev. James C. McKnight, who was ordained June 11, 1856, and remained over four years. Rev. AVm. Graham was next pastor and continued this relation until his death, in the Fall of 1863. Rev. Thomas P. Patterson was ordained Oct. 27, 1864, and was pastor until April, 1868. Rev. David Inches began his labors with this church in June, 1869, and continued his work for five years. The present pastor is the Rev. Rufug Johnson, who began June 10, 1876. The present HISTORY OF WARREN COUNTY. 171 number of members is about seventy. This congregation own alarge hosue of worship costing about $4,000 and a ffood parsonage with three acres of ground. The Cliurch of God is located in southeast quarter of Sec. 10, Spring Grove townsliip. It was organized in 1865 by lie v. Rudolph White, and the earliest meetings were held in the school house in district No. 4. Among the original members were Jehu Bailey and wife. D. C. Swiller, Avife and three children, John Cannon and wife, and others. The church was built in 1867 and cost $1,600. The present pastor is Kev. Thos. De- Shiria. Membership about twenty-five and Sabbath school the same ; John Simcox, Superintendent. LENOX Was laid out by C. C. Dixon in 1872, who owned the farm on which the village is platted. He had settled here in 1831:, at a time when there was but one house between his and Monmouth, then containing but four or five houses. No village was thought of until the Rockford, Rock Island and St. Louis railroad was contemplated. The company guaranteed the location of a depot to some ten or twelve residents who were active in securing the right of way through the township. Foremost among them was C. C. Dixon and J. W. Bridenthal. These located the station on t!ie present site and Mr. Dixon at once took steps to lay out the town. The village plat and farm were afterwards purchased by Mr. Bridenthal, the present owner. Mr. T. H. Norwood opened the first store and the post ofiice in the dwelling of Henry Redout, Shortly after John Ilodgen and John Young erected the present store room occupied by Mr. Young and Graham. One or two ad- ditional stores have been opened and a good carriage and wagon shop is now in operation. A large quantity of grain is shipped from this point. For the year 1876 331 car loads of grain were shipped. In addition to this, 70 car loads of live stock were sent to market. The town and post office were given the name of Lenox. As there was a Station North of Monmouth by that name. Until it vras discontinued, the village and office was called Lenox Station. SCHOOLS. One of the oldest district schools in the township is located here. As soon as the school population ot the community warranted the erection of a house, a small structure was built. This was used with an occasional en- largement and repair, until 1876, when the present structure, one of the best in the township, was erected. The attendance is now about forty scholars, which require the services of one teacher. CHURCHES. For several years past a Presbyterian church was maintained. About twelve years since through the effort of Mr. Dixon, who donated a lot, a comfortable house of worship was erected, and atone time quite a congrega- tion had grown up, and regular preaching was sustained. Owing to re. 172 HISTORY OF WAEKEN COUNTY. movals and other causes has so diminished the church that the organization was disbanded, the remaining members going to Monmouth or to other churches. The Methodists now occupy the church but as yet have no or- ganization. GEKLAW. This village has a pleasant location. It was laid out as a town site May 2, 1871, on land owned by R. AV. Gerlaw, after whom it bears its name. It is situated in the N. W. quarter of Section 34. Spring Grove township, and is on the Kockford, E.ock Island R. R. six miles north from Monmouth. A. A. Elder opened the first store in Sept., 1871. James Webster some- time after, built a large store, with a fine hall in second story. A brisk trade has been carried on here, considering its nearness to the county seat. The books of the R. R. Co. show that the shipment of stock has reached more than 200 cars in a single year. Yery little grain is shipped from this point, as all is needed by feeders of stock. The Christian church was organized in 1858, by Rev. L. S. Wallace, and a house of worship was built about about two miles north east from the town at a cost of $950. This building was moved to the town site in 187-1, and was thoroughly repaired. Among the first members were J. T. Gilmore and wife, R; W. Lair and wife, B. F. Gardner and wife and others. The present membership is about forty. No pastor. CAMERON Was laid out by Robert Cameron, Feb. 22, 1854, and was for some time known as Cameronville. His plat included the south west part of the town lying south of the railroad. Charles AYaste laid out a portion directly east of this, and north and west of this, across the railroad in CoLibrook town- ship. Quinby's addition was soon after made. A. B. Hawkins was the first merchant in town. His store stood directly east of Isaac Wilson's shop in a now vacant lot. Owen C. Waste and Smith & Skinner of Galesburg opened stores soon after, and for some time a fine trade was engaged. Mr. Hawkins had previously kept a store in Coldbrook, but as soon as the C. B. & Q. R. R. was completed and Cameron platted he removed his store and goods to that place. Nearly all the business of Cold Brook was brought to Cameron at this and latter dates. The town has always been small, but a good trade is steadily maintained. A good number of stores and shops are now in successful operation, and enjoying a good patronage. SCHOOLS. The first district school house was built south of the railroad, and was the first house erected on the village plat. There being two districts, (the railroad being the dividing line between the township of Cold Brook and Floyd,) in 1871, these were consolidated into one, and the present two story building erected. It will accommodate 100 pupils, the attendance being now eighty-five. COUNTY TREASURER ^V. HISTORY OF WARREN COUNTY. 1T5 CHRISTIAN CHURCH. This is the oldest congregation of this denomination. It was organized in 1831. Tlieir earliest meetings were held in private houses and in the school house. At this time they were at Cold Brook. Some of their Elders were John G. Ilalev, Elijah Davidson and Wm. Whitman. Levi Ilatchett, John E, Murphy and L. 8. Wallace were some of the earliest ministers. A house of worship was built in Cold Brook in 1839. The congregation continued to meet here until 1854 or '5 when they removed to Cameron and there erected their present church, costing about $3,000. A portion of the congregation went near the present town of Alexis, where they have now a stronoj church. About 1851 or '2 Elder R. R. Halev and Deacon John E. Murphey, with some thirty members went to Monmouth, Oregon, where thev formed the nucleus of a hiro;e and flourishine: cono^reo^ation. Josiah Whitman, S. T. Sheton and Henry E. Haley were chosen to fill the offices made vacant by those removing to Oregon. The Cameron congregation have now aboat 125 members and sustain a Sunday school of 70 scholars. Rev. D. D. Miller is the present pastor. THE M. E. CIIUKCH. In the fall of 1856, ministers of this denomination commenced services in the school house, and soon thereafter organized the church. Some twelve or fifteen persons united. Among them were Mr. and Mrs. Watt, Mr. and Mrs. Porterfield, Frank Moi-ey, Benj. Tinkham, Mrs. Fox, Mrs. Gay and Mary Gay. Rev. Fisher presided at the organization. In 1857, they erected their present church edifice, which is now in- adequate to the wants of the congregation and will soon be replaced b}^ a a commodious house. The growth of the congregation has been slow, and at no time has the membership been large. The number now is about forty. The First Baptist Church at this place was organized June 30th, 1866, and its first meetinsrs were held in the district school house with an orio-i- nal membership of nine persons, which has increased to sixty-five, and a Sunday school of &ixtj. The present church was built in 1869 at a cost of $3,200. The pastors have been the Revs. Wm. AVhitehead, Jno. Bolton, W. R. Welch, E. L. Corfield and J. R. Pennington. Their present pastor is Rev G. D. Kent. SWAK CREEK. The settlement in this localit}^ dates back to about 1837. A post-office has been maintained here since that date. As soon as the railroad was completed, steps were taken to establish a depot here, but although the company would stop their trains, they would not build a switch or erect the necessary buildings until the residents had raised $1,000. This was secured mainly through the efforts r>f Mr. George Worden, one of the earliest residents and who had keej) a store since Decem- ber, 1856, in a building opposite his dwelling. It is now used as a dwelling and harness shop. Mr. Worden laid out the town April 15, 1871, and soon 176 HISTORY OF WAKREN COUNTY. after Eev. W. C. Romine opened a store. He is now in Eoseville. B. Ra^in and Aaron Burr, opened stores about this time and have steadily up- held their trade. There are now three or four good stores, the same number of shops, a good mill and elevator. A large amount of shipping is done from this point. Before the com- pletion of the railroad in ISTO, this was taken to Oquawka and to Prairie City, where nearly all trading at this time was done. Kow the produce is shipped to Chicago and St. Louis. SCHOOLS. A good school has always been held here. In 1876, a large comfortable house was erected, which is a credit to the town. About lifty scholars are daily in attendance. CHURCHES. Tlie Methodist Episcopal Church was organized in 1872 and '3. The earliest meetina;s were held in the school house, a little north of the vil- lage. Those "\Adio took part in these meetings were Austin A. Cornell, An- drew J. Sisson, Nancy J. Sisson, Rufus K. Sisson, Mary E. Sisson, Bur- well Booth, Anna M. Phillips. These had been members of the M. E. Church at Pleasant Mound, six miles southeast of Swan Creek, except Bur- well Booth who had been a member of the M. E. Church at Point Pleas- ant. In 1873 a church was built at a cost of $2,000. Rev. C. B. Conch served from 1872 till September, 1871. He was followed by Rev. J. "W. Coe, who served till September, 1876. Their present pastor. Rev. K. T. Allen, was appointed September, 1876. Twenty-six members have been added to the church the past winter, the result of a revival under the leader- ship of the present pastor and the earnest efforts of the members. There are now sixtv-one members and a thriving Sabbath school of eightv schol- ars. YOUNGSTOWN Was laid out by the Kidder family and others in the spring of 1872. The first store was opened by H. V. Simmons in a building erected by C. AY. Mapes. The building is now occupied by Wm. Miner. One or two other stores have since been erected. One or two shops are now in operation. The town plat was, until 1872, the farm of the Kidder family, and when the plat was surveyed and a station established, before one was allowed at Swan Creek, as the railroad company objected to two depots so closely to- gether. This latter objection was, however, overruled by the energy of the citizens along the hue. Youngstown supports a good local trade, and is the shipping point for all farm produce from this locality. SCHOOLS. Schools has been held in the district school house many years. An effort is now being made to add an additional room and grade the school. This will promptly be carried out in a year or so, HISTORY OF WAHREN COUNTY. 177 CHURCHES. About 1870, the members of the Baptist denomination met in tlie school house for divine worship and in 1873, were organized into a church. It is known at the Swan Creek Baptist church.
