riONEKH SKETCHES.
Messrs. Emtoi.o: Since the Old Settlers
Meeting, held se roe time ago ia Richmond, I
jhare been called upon frequently fur a com
munication giving some of the events of my
early life, in connection with my settling in
this county, my present place of residence.
As to my nativity, I was born in Chester
County Pennsylvania, April 19th, 1780. My
father emigrated from that State to North Car
olina, Randolph County, when I was quite
young, in. the tirrn of the Revolutionary war.
I lived with my father until I was about 19
years of age, when I did as the most of
young men do got married. I lirod in that
county a few years, when I left with my fam
ily in a two-horse wagon, to move to tho West,
on the 11th day of September, 1804; and on
that day four weeks crossed the Ohio River
and landed at Cincinnati, where I saw but
three brick houses at that time. When I land
ed on this side of tho Ohio, I had but twenty
dollars to support my family, consisting of a
wife and two children, during the winter. On
the day following I got to my journey's end
(for that time) in the settlement of German
town, Ohio, where my wife's father, mother,
brothers and sisters lived.
After resting a few days with connections, I
began to look for a shelter for the winter. By
making enquiry I found a cabin and got tho
privilege to go into it until March; I also rent
ed a small piece of ground for corn the next
season. This brought us to 1805. In the
spring we had to leave the old smoky cabin;
and as cabins were few and all occupied, I
could get none fit to live in. Jacob Puts.
my father-in-law, had built a cabin to weave
in; he told us we could hare it if we could
do no better.
It had no loft nor floor but mother earth,
was covered with clipboards, ag. chimney nor
door, a hole was cut eut for a door but was
not cheeked up, end place for a chimney but
none built. So when we wanted to make a
fire, in cool raiay weather, we had to build it
in the middle of the cabin. Bad as the chance
was we wentinto it and remaiued there until
the August following.
Sometime in November a company of seven
men, John Hardin, William Fouts, Jesse Da
venport, Owen Darby, Charles and John
Russell and myself, left the settlement with a
team of two horses and wagon and provisions
enough to last us eight or ten days, to look
for land. We traveled- through a wilderness
country for thirty miles twelve miles of the
way, there being no road only as we cut it out
from where the town of Eaton now stands,
to the place of my present residence, then the
Territory of Indiana. Dearborn County.
We camped near the Ohio S ate line, about
one half mile Sorh of where I now live, and
commenced looking for land. In the day time
we looked for laud and at night hunted rack
coons. Our provisions gave out before we
all got satisfied; after which we lived on rack
coons while we remainal land hunting. Af
ter making our choice of locations for land
(at least four of us) we returned home. This
was in the fall of 1 805. On tho 7th of March
following, Davenport and myself took money
and went to Cincinnati and entered the land
we had selected for Fouts, Davonport and
myself.
The following June, in company with Da
venport and wife, and Jscob Fouts, jr., and
myself and wife came out to see our wilder
ness homes, which was the second time I saw
my present residence.
On our way home, a few miles east of Eaton,
Ohio, soon afternoon, an eclipse of the sun
took place which caused such intense darkness
that we could see the stars as plain as at mid-
and wo had to dismount from our horses
it being so dark that we could not see to travel
for about one half hour.
In August after our return home, my wife
was taken sick, and on the 6th day of Septem
ber I followed her remains to the grave, on
the bank of the little Twin Crek, near Gor
mantown, Montgomery County, Ohio.
This event left me in a very poor condition.
I had no home was left with two small chil
dren without money or means. I had a
piece of land but it was ia the wilderness
thirty miles off. I become very much dissat
isfied with the west, and wanted to return to
the old country, and made an effort to do so,
but could not I had not the means to take
me back.
That winter I came to my brother-in-law's,
William Fouts, who lived in about three
fourths of a mile of my land. I worked on
my land, clearing ground and cutting logs for
a cabin. I built my cabin that winter where
I worked that win'er I neither saw the face of
a white man, heard a dog bark nr a chicken
crow. At this time I felt as though I was
out of the world. My discontentment was
so great that I sometimes wished I had never
beenboru. Bat I got along the best I could
under the circumstances that surrounded me.
My father-in-law, Jacob Fouts, had bought

Friday occured ia February 1806. During
that winter, as I said before, I built my cabin,
cleared and fenced some four acres of ground,
and on the tenth day of June follow. ng, I
planted ilia corn, which was the first crop
that I planted on my land whore I now lire.

would, and I soon became as anxious to re
turn as 1 had been to go there. After col
lecting the small amount of money due me. I
returned home
Before my risit to the old coantry, some
arrangements had been made for a second
marriage. Being left with two small children
ai.. ii i r j r .
I felt the need of a help male. I knew how a
man felt that had been or.ee maraied and had
the misfortune to loose his wife, but knew not
how one felt who was married a second time,
On the S7th day of December, 1306, 1 was
married the second time, and the next day, or
;th day following, moved on to my land in
the wilderness, where 1 now reside, and com
1 menced house keeping again. It may be seen
that I had nothing very desirable to take my
'second wife to. Our cabin was small with a
j puncheon floor, covered with clap boards and
i a loft of ths same material, it was chinked
s but not daubed, and a chimney built of wood
'some eight feet high.
I In this condition we lived in our cabin d-i
J ring the winter of 1806-7. Yet my wife was
icouteuted aad happy, and I soon became re
conciled to our wildsrriHss home, aad bccaaic
'contented and happy alio.
It is now time to say something more about
my corn crop. Soon after settling in our new
home, I thought it necessary to look about
; for some means to gather my corn. So I
borrowed a horse and wagon of a neighbor
and went about it. But when I come to ex
amine my patch I had but very little corn,
and that badly frost bittan, an 1 eaten by rack
coons. I gathered it, however, and stored it
in my cabin loft. After shc-lliug and drying
one grist I took it to Bruce'a raid, on Seven
Mile Creek, Preble County Ohio, near the
site of the town of Eaton, a distance of twelve
miles. We soon found that it was so ba lly
frosted that it was not Sit for bread so wo fed
it to our cow, the only one we had at that
time. Then how to get bread to eat I was at
a loss to know. I had no money to buy with.
! However, I went back to the settlement of
f mv f-uher-in-law. Valentine M owery, and
bought nine bushels of corn for three dollars, j
to ba paid for wheu 1 was able. I Dougiit
bushels of wheat of my Brother William,
which was tho only wheat used the first year
I we lived in our new home.
We had ail of our grain to pack from the
settlement on horseback, over very bad roads
; until we could raise a supply at home. We
: livftd in our cabia about six vears. when 1
1 built a two story hewed l"g house with two j
! brick chimneys. The chimneys were bu.lt by j
I Elijah Fisher, who remarked after he had fin-!
j ished them, that they were the first brick J
! chimneys built in Wayne County. Whether j
this was the case or not I am not certain. The j
j brick were made on my ! iad, and the chim-1
I neys built in October 1812. j
j In order to show the progress that has been !
imide, in 1819 my ttx amounted to four :
dollars and some few cents. In 1855 I paid.
one hundred and twenty -three doll an anl fif- j
; ty two cents tax, for State and County purpos- j
les, as the records will show.
i I want now to refer back to Ohio where 1 1
'once lived in 1805. At that time land sold
from five to ten dollars per acre. Now, in
j 1856. the same quality of land sells from fifty
j to one hundred dollars per acre. -
The people who first settled in that place
were, as they are bow, mostly from Pennsyl
vania, and of German origin good farmers
fine, honest and industrious people living
j contentedly and happy, ana an ornament to i upon it is very nearly exhaus:J, ana "jutlg

, ia like predicament wiTh myself ia reference
to the office of Governor of the State, having
pokenout for themselves, I fear that my po
sition and views ia this behalf, may ba misap
prehended, should I remain silent.
The presentation of my name, with others,
for this distinguished office, by your Journal,
and-divers other pa-rs. with some private
letters from partial friends in dttferent parts of
the State, may well be supposed to be grati
fying to me, as an evidence of public appreci
ation. But thre is a-fi:njs expediency, if
you please in these thing, that rises above
any mere personal considerations, and should
not be lost eight of. L;t us for a moment
reason together. -
We all hold, I sapp'Me, that no citizen is at
liberty, when the public understand and prop
erly appreciate his position, to decline a call
into its services if unequivocally made. In
such a case "wo are not our own--we are
bought with a price'dear as those rights,
to secure which, "governments are instituted
among men." Now 1 do not apprehend that
it wilfbe deemed essential to thi siba popu
li that the writer should be kidnapped for so
great a purpose! But I have a few general
suggestions for your ear, anl r the ears of
our fellow Republicans in this emergency; and
noue others are invited into tho parliament.
It is an "Executive session." So the Ser-geant-at-Arms
will please ck-ar the lobbies
and the galleries and if any outsider hereaf
ter bark at us, f.r this, he is at oaves-dropper
and makes himself "a di.-ty d g."
We have fallen on ames when, ii ever, all
mere partiality for men, should b entirely
absorbed bv the nn-a.ures tor whicn we con
teal. It is true my motto irjvi-r was "mea
sures not men" but "meis'ires and the men
who can bet secure e measures." I know
we are apt to think aud ay lh it eaeh of these
animal, bieanial and quadrenuiiw struggles, as
it turns up. is of all others that ever
was, or
will be, the
rital conflict! It is
doubtless
wisely well that we are s eonsiiu'ed. It
keeps" the sentinel frow .sleeping on his post
an.j a true Americans are Mich,
But when had we when can we again have
issues for National aad State trial of such
startling significance as those that are set, in
spite of us, for this year? The question of
dedicating American ' soil to Freedom, and
permitting America:? to rule it is about as
.,!.! a the first settlement of thu Continent.
And the question of dedicating all the free
s,,il 0f the United States to freemen, is even
older than their constis jtioa. But I must
not run into a sperch or an essay and I
would sermonize bat briefly!
When Paul "reasoned" before the Roman
Governor, "of Righteousness, Temperance
and Judgment to c ne, Felix trembled."
And w..-H he rir. . -- trer be. any que.
tion of political "righteousness mnni'-eiy
above all others, looms up this of Freedom
against oppression and slavery. And it seems
to me that, about these times, tne "reasoning
up, lixe a "midnight cry, .lo.e-luwy to our
- t .-.
I saw nothing now of how "ineu's
blood is stirred" because af ti e mobbing of
