So urgent was this necessi ty, that the government contracted with Mr. Noah Zane to give him his choice of three tectiont of land not for con structing a road, but to mar a trace through the wilderness, from the Ohio river at Wheeling, to Old Town (or L-hillicothe, 1 on the Scioto, near where me city oi tuat name now stands.

Zane having secured some expert In-1 aians as guides, proceeded to mark his trace, Dy oiazing' tne trees in the lor- est which was the guide for future travelers, and was for many years the main thoroughfare of travel through that portion of the country, ovon after tho organization of the State govern-1 ment. 'Zane's Trace' was beyond doubt the first great work of public improve- ment within the borders of the present proud State of Ohio and as the pion- eer work, its importance can hardly be over-estimated. Mr.. Zane selected one of his sections of land near Wheeling, where his descendants now reside; an- other at the crossing of the Muskingum I river, the site of the city oi Zanesville, whence is derived the name; and the third, at the point where his 'trace' crossed the Hockhockmg on which the beautiful town of Lancaster is situated, Time and experience abundantly vindi- catedthe wisdom of these selections.

I Eery traveler who made his adven- turous journey through the wilderness, guided by this 'Trace,' returned but to inspire new adventures by his glowing discription of the beauty and fertility of the country. Such was Ohio, in'the possession of its primitive Lords. The lnle man, impelled by 'destiny,' and lured by the prospect of so goodly an heritage, trenched upon the hunting- grounds of the aboriginal noblemen, and and sanguinary conflicts were the result. The races were arrayed in perpetual truerrilla warfare, each road- ed to desperation. The one stimulated by a thirst for 'empire and extended rulc;' the other, defending their hearth stones, and the graves of their fathers. Victory coauetted with the combatants rivin!r alternate hope and despondency to each. ISy degrees, however, the white man pushed his frontier farther, and farther, into the wilderness; and treaties were made, and concessions granted to his demands, conducted sue cessively by Col. Buoquet, on the Mus kininim; by Lord Dunmore, at Camp Charlotte; and by General Wayne, at Greenville. From the date of the lat- ter, Indian Sovereignty and jurisdiction has died out, leaving the country to the undisputed possession of the 'Anglo Saxon' destiny-man.
