Thousands of cases cured can testify to the efficacy of this plan of treatment. This preparation will destroy the specific nature of most Cancers in from ten to sixty minutes. Even in those large Cancerous affections of the breast, from which so many females die annually, my siieciflc is equally as effectual as in those smaller surface Gincers. Ninety-nine out of a hundred of all those persons who have died from Cancer, could easily have been cured. Cancer has been considered from time immemorial the greatest scourge of the human race ; but the time will come when all shall see that it is as remediable as any other dis- ease. At the same time remedies are given to purify the blood and fortify the system against a renewed attack. In all cases, if the Cancer is not too far advanced, a perfect cure is warranted, or no charge. Most persons are greatly deceived in regard to the first symptoms and appearance of Cancer, considering it very painful from the commencement. This is a sad njistako, (causing the death of thousands,) there being but little or no pain until the Cancer is far advanced. The only symptoms for months, and in some cases even for years, is occa- sionally either a stinging, itching, smarting, burning, creeping or shooting senBatiou, and in some cases not even any of these. Nearly all of those kernels or lumps that occur iu the female breast, and also those unnatural appearances in the form of crusts or warty excrescence, which appear iu either sex on the face, lips, nose, eye lids, qrany other part of the surface, are cancers. Cancer is very easily cured iu its early stage, consequently it is of the very greatest importance that all thus afflicted should have immediate treat- ment; as thousands of very valuable lives have been lost from pure neglect, having been misguided by physicians having no knowledge of the disease, who, by calling it Scrofula', Erysipelas, salt Rheum or some other non-terrifying disease, lull this unfortunate class in the cradle of ignorance, until upon the very verge of death, when, to hide such ignor- ance, the physician tells the patient that it has finally turned to Cancer, and cannot be cured. There is no such thing as turning to Cancer. Whatever ends in Cancer, began in Cancer. Be no longer deceived. If you have the slightest suspicion of trouble, seek immediate relief and tnereby preserve life. all Diseases peculiar to Males or Females, successfully treated. Warts, Corns, Sunions, Moles, Wens, Birth-Marks, Tumors Ac, removed. Especial attention given to the treatment of Crooked Feet, Legs, Anna, Spine, Neck, and all other deformities. Cross Eyes straightened, Hare-Lips cured by an entirely new plan of oper- ating. Operations for Stone in the Bladder, Polypus, Strangulated Hernia, Fistula, or the cure of False and Crooked Joints, and all deformities ol the Eye Lids, Nose, Lips, Neck &c., resulting from Burns or Wounds, performed upon the most scientific princi- ples. All Diseases of the Eye and Ear treated with very great success. Especial attention given to the treatment of all diseases originating from the errors of misguided Youth. Patients from a distance, except in Surgical and Cancer cases, by sending a full des- cription of their symptoms, can have medicmes sent by Mail or Express, and be treated at home. All letters promptly answered, and medicines ordered, immediately forwarded. The Doctor is a graduate with an experience of over fourteen years in the practice of medicine, twelve of which have been spent in Rome. N. B. — All persons troubled with Asthma should, send for Dr. Kingsley's ASTHMA SPECIFIC, which is warranted to relieve any case or money refunded. Send for DR.

WILLIAM WAYMAN, ■ NICHOLS, N. Y. INTSODXrVTlON. INTRODUCTION. In presenting to the public the " Gazetteer and Business Di- rectory of Broome and Tioga Counties," the publisher desires to return his sincere thanks to all who have so kindly aided him in obtaining the information it contains, and rendered it possible to present it in bhe brief space of time in which it is essential such works should be completed. Especially are our thanks due to the several editors of the papers published in the Counties, for the uniform kindness they have evinced in calling public attention to the author's efforts ; and for essential aid in furnish- ing material for the work. Many others have placed us under similar obligations, but as credit has been given in most of such cases, as well as in works from which we have quoted, in connec- tion with the substance of the information gleaned from each, we omit special mention here ; while still others have kindly volunteered their assistance, to all of whom we tender our grate- ful acknowledgment. That errors have occurred in so great a number of names and dates as are here given is probable ; and that names have been omitted which should have been inserted is quite certain. We can only say that we have exercised more than ordinary diligence and care in this difficult and complicated feature of book making. Of such as feel aggrieved in consequence of errors or omissions we beg pardon, and ask the indulgence of the reader in marking such as have been observed in the subsequent reading of the proofs, and which are found in the Errata, following the Introduction. It was designed to give a brief history of all the Church organizations in the Counties, but owing, in some cases, to the INTRODUCTION. negligence of those who alone were able to give the necessary information, and in others, to the inability of any one to do so, we hare been obliged to omit many or indefinitely delay the completion of the work. We would suggest that our patrons observe and become familiar with the explanations at the commencement of the Directory. The map of the Counties was engraved with great care by Weed, Parsons & Co., of Albany, and will, it is believed, prove a valuable acquisition to the work. The Advertisers represent some of the leading business men and firms of these and other counties ; and we most cheerfully commend them to the patronage of those under whose obser- vation these pages may come. While thanking our patrons and friends generally for the liberality and cordiality with which our efibrts have been seconded, we take this occasion to express the hope that the information found in these pages will not prove devoid of interest and value, though we are fully conscious that the brief history of the Counties the scope of the work enables us to give, is by no means an exhaustive one, and can only hope that it may prove a nucleus and incentive to future historians, who will be the better able to do full justice to the subject, and leave our work to secure that favor which earnest endeavor ever wins from a discriminating public.

In pursu- ance of the act of Congress, the President issued a Proclamation, April 20, 1863, admitting the State sixty days from the date thereof, and on the 20th of June the new State G6vernment was formally inaugurated. Area 24,000 square miles. Population in 1860, 350,599, of whom 12,754 were slaves. Population in 1870 was 441,094. It is a large corn producing State, and abounds in coal and other minerals. The Alexandria Legisla- ture adopted the United States Constitutional Amendment February 9, 1865. Male citizens, residents of the State one year and county thirty days, unless disqualified by rebellion, are entitled to vote. WISCOJVSIJV was settled at Green Bay, in 1669, by the French ; was a part of the' territory ceded by Virginia, and was set off from Mich- igan December 24, 1834, and was organized into a Territory April 30, 1836. Iowa was set off from it June 12, 1838, and acts were passed at various times setting its boundaries. March 8, 1847, an act for its admis- sion into the Union was passed, to take effect on the issuing of a Procla- mation by the President, and by act of May 29, 1848, it was admitted into the Union. Area 53,924 square miles, or 34,511,360 acres. Population in 1870, 1,055,501. It is an agricultural State, chiefly engaged in grain rais- ing and wool growing. Citizens of the United States, or foreigners who have declared their intention to become citizens, are entitled to vote. Colored citizens were admitted to the franchise, by a decision of the Supreme Court, rendered the 27th day of March, 1866, holding that, whereas an election was held in 1849, under the provisions of chapter 137, of that year, at which election 5,265 votes were cast in favor of the extension of the right of suffrage to colored men, and 4,075 against such extension, therefore, the section of said law conferring such right had been constitutionally adopted and is the law of the land. 32 THE TERBITOBtES, TBEIR BOXmDARIBa, ETC. THE TERRITORIES, THBIB BOUNDAIUES, ABEA, PHY9ICAI, PEATUKES, ETC. AXjlSJ'ji, our new territory, recently purchased of Russia, compre- hends all the north-west coast on the Pacific, and the adjacent islands north of the parallel of 50 degrees 40 minutes north, and the portion of ihe main- land west of the meridian (about 140° west) of Mount St. Elias. The area is computed at 481,876 square miles. The climate, although warmer than in the same latitude on the eastern coast, is too rigorous to admit of suc- cessful agricultural operations, and the chief vdlue Of the coufitry and ad- jacent seas is derived from their fisheries and hunting grounds. The south- era and central portions are mountainous ; the northern portion along the Arctic ocean is quite flat, nowhere rising more than fifteen or twenty feet above the sea. The population is estimated At about 80,000, mostly Esqui- meaux. A!RTZOJVA was organized by the Thirty-Seventh Congress, in the win- ter of 1863, out of the western half of New Mexico, the boundary between the two Territories being the 109th meridian (33d west from Washington,) and includes the greater portions of the ■valleys of Colorado and Gila, which two rivers drain its entire surface, with parts of Utah, New Mexico and Nevada, and yet convey, it is reported, a less volume of water to the sea than the Hudson at Albany. The fertile Messiila Valley was left with New Mexico. The Territory forms a block nearly square, and contains 126,141 square miles, or 80,730,340 acres. Its white population in 1870 was 9,658. For agricultural purposes it is probably the most worthless on the Continent, owing to the absence of rains, but it is reputed to abound in silver mines. nce of ordinary public lands is $1,25 per acre. The even or re- served sections falling within railroad grants are increased to double the TnlniTnum price, being J2,50 per acre. Lands once ofl'ered at public sale, and not afterwards kept out of market by reserva- tion, or otherwise, so as to prevent free competition, may be entered or located. 2. By the applicant filing with the Begis- ter his written application describing the tract, with its area ; the Begister will then certify to the receiver whether the land is vacant, with its price ; and when found to be so, the applicant must pay that price per acre, or may locate the same with land warrant, and thereafter theBeceiver will give him a " duplicate receipt," which he 18 required to surrender previous to the delivery to him of the patent, which may be had either by application for it to the Eegister or to the General Land Office. 3. If the tract has not been ofl'ered at public sale it Is not liable to ordinary pri- vate entry, but may be secured hy a party legally qualified, upon his compliance with the requirements of the pre-emption laws of 4th September, 1841, and 3d March, 1843; and after such party shall have made ac- tual settlement for such a length of time as will show he designs it for. his perma- nent home, and Is acting tn good faith, building a house and residing therein, he may proceed to the district land office, es- tablish his pre-emption claim according to law, by proving his actual residence and cultivation, and showing that he Is other- wise within the purview of these acts. — Then he can enter the land at $1,36, either in cash or with bounty land warrant, unless the premises should be $3,50 acre lands. In that case the whole purchase-money can he paid in cash, or one-half in cash, the residue with a bounty land warrant. i. But if parties legally qualified desire to obtain title under the Homestead Act of 20th May, 1863, they can do so on com- 46 LAW MAXIMS. plylDg with the Department Circalar^ dated SOth October, 1863. 6. The law conflneB HomeBtead entries to Borveyed lands ; and although, in cer- tain States and Territories noted m the sub- joined list, pre-emptors may go on land be- fore survey, yet they can only establlBh their claim after return of survey, but must file their pre-emption declaration within three months after receipt of official plat, at the local land-offlce where the settlement was made before survey. Where, however, it was made after survey, the claimant must file within three months after date of 'set- tlement; and where actual reeidence and cultivation have been long enough to show that the claimant has made the land his permanent home, he can establish his claim and pay for the same at any time before the date of the public sale of lands within the range in which his settlement may fall. 6. All nnoffered surveyed lands not ac- quired under pre-emption, homestead, or otherwise, under express legal sanction, must be offered at public sale under the President's Proclamation, and struck off to the highest bidder, as required by act of April §4, 1830.

A promise of a debtor to give "satie- factory security" for tlie pajTnent of a por- tion of his debt, is a sufficient considera- tion for a release of tlie residue by his creditor. 2. Administrators are liable to account for interest on fiinds in their hands, al- though no profit shall have been made upon them, unless the exigencies of the estate rendered it prudent that they should hold the funds thus uninvested. 3. Any person who voluntarily becomes an agent for another, and In that capacity obtains information to which as a stranger he could have had no access, is bound in subsequent dealing with his principal, as purchaser of the property that formed the subject of his agency, to communicate such information. 4. When a house ie rendered untenanta- ble in consequence of improvements made on the adjomine lot, the owner of such cannot recover damages, because it is pre- sumed that he had knowledge of the ap- proaching danger in time to protect him- self from it. 5. When a merchant ship is abandoned by order of the master, for the purpose of saving life, and a part of the crew subse- quently meet the vessel so abandoned and bring her safe into port, they will be enti- tled to salvage. 6. A person who has been led to sell goods by means of false pretenses, cannot recover them from one who has purchased them in good f^ith f^om the fraudulent vendor. 7. An agreement by the holder of a note to give the principal debtor time for pay- ment, without depriving himself of the right to sue, does not discharge the surety. 8. A seller of goods who accepts, at the time of sale, the note of a third party, not endorsed by the buyer, in payment, can- not in case the note is not paid, hold the buyer responsible for the value of the goods. 9. A day-book copied from a " blotter " in which charges are first made, will not be received in evidence as a" book of origi- nal entries. 10.

An action for malicious prosecution win lie, though nothing further was done than suing out warrants. 21. An agreement not to continue the practice of a profession or business in any specified town, if the party so agreeing has received a consideration for the same, is valid. 22. When A consigns goods to B to sell on commission, and B delivers them to C, in payment of his own antecedent debts, A can recover their value. 23. A finder of property Is compelled to make diligent inquiry for the owner there- of, and to restore the same. If, on finding Bucb property, he attempcs to conceal such fact, he may be prosecuted for larceny. 24. A private person may obtain an in- junction to prevent a public mischief by which he is anected in common with others. 25. Any person interested may obtain an Injunction to restrain the State oramunlcl- paJ corporation from malntaininganuisance on its lands. 26. A discharge under the insolvent laws of one State wBl not discharge the insol- vent from a contract made with a citizen of another State. 27. To prosecute a party with any other motive than , to bring him to justice, is malicious prosecution, and actionable as such. 28. Ministers of the gospel, residing in any incorporafed town, are not exempt from jury, military, or fire service. 29. When a person contracts to build a house, and is prevented by sickness from finishing it, he can recover for the part per- formed, if such part la beneficial to the other party. 30. In a suit for enticing away a man's wife, actual proof of the marriage is not ue- cessaiy. Cohabitation, reputation, and the admission of marriage by the parties, are sufficient. 31. Permanent erections and fixtures, made by a mortgagor after the execution or the mortgage upon land conveyed by it, be- come a part of the mortgaged premises. 32. When a marriage is denied, and plain- tiff has given sufficient evidence to estab- lish it, the defendant cannot examine tha wife to disprove the marriage. 33. The amount of an express debt can- not be enlarged by application. 34. Contracts for advertisements in Sun- day newspapers cannot be enforced. 35. A seller of goods, chattels, or other property, commits no fraud, in law, when he neglects to tell the purchaser of any fiaws, defects, or unsoundness in the same, 36. The opinions of witnesses, as to the value of a dog that has been killed, are not admissible in evidence. The value of the animal is to be decided by the jury. 37. If any person puts a fence on or plows the land of another, he is hable for trespass whether the owner has sustained injury or not. 38. If a person, who is unable from ill- ness to si^ his will, has his hand guided in making his mark, the signature is valid. 39. When land trespassed upon is occu- pied by a tenant, he alone can bring the action. 40. To say of a person, " If he does not come and make terms with me, I will make a bankrupt of him and ruin him," or any such threatening language, is actionable, without proof of special damage. 41. In an action for slander, the party making the complaint must prove the words allege^ other words of like meaning will not suffice. 42. In a suit of damages for seduction, proof of pregnancy, and the birth of a child, IS not essential. It is sufficient if the iU- ness of the girl, whereby she was unable to labor,wa8 produced by shame for the seduc- tion ; and this is such a loss of service as will sustain the action. 43. Addressing to a wife a letter contain- ing matter delamatory to the character of her husband is a publication, and renders the writer amenable to damages. 44. A parent cannot sustain an action for any wrong done to a child, unless he has in- curred some direct pecuniary injury there- from in consequence of some loss of ser- vice or expenses necessarily consequent thereupon, 45. A master Is responsible for an injury resulting from the negligence of his ser- vant, whilst driving his cart or carriage, provided the servant is at the time engaged in his master's business, even thou^ the accident happens in a place to which his master's business does not call him ; but if the journey of a servant be solely for a pur- pose of his own, and undertaken without the knowledge and consent of his master, the latter is not responsible. 46. An emigiant depot is not a nuisance inlaw. 47. A railroad track through the streets is not a nuisance in law. 48 LAW MAXIMS. 48. If an agreement upon which a party relies he oral only, it mnst be proved by evidence. Bat If the contract be redaced to writing, it proves itself j and now no evidence whatever is receivable for the ♦purpose of varying the contract or affecting Its obligations. The reasons are obvious. The law prefers written to oral evidence, from its greater precision and certainty, and because it is fess open to fraud. And where parties have closed a negotiation and reduced the result to writing, it is pre- sumed that they have written all they in- tended to agree to, and therefore, that what is omitted was finally rejected by them.— [Pabsons. 49. Delivery of a husband's goods by a wife to her adulterer, he having knowledge that she has taken them without her hus- band's authority, is sufficient to sustain an Indictment for larceny against the adnl- terer. BO. The fact that the insurer was not in- formed of the existence of impending liti- gation, affecting the premises insured, at the time the insurance was effected, does not vitiate the policy. 61. The liability of an innkeeper is not confined to personal baggage, but extends to all the property of the guest that he con- sents to receive, 52. When a minor executes a contract, and pays money, or delivers property on the same, he cannot afterwards disafftrm such contract and recover the money, or prop- erty, unless he restores to the other party the consideration received from him for such money or property. 63. When a person has, by legal inqnisi- tion been found an habitual drunkard, he cannot, even in his sober intervals, make contracts to bind himself or his property, until the inquisition is removed. 54. Any person dealing with the repre- sentative of a deceased person, ie presumed, in law, to be fully apprized of the extent of such representative's authority to act in behalf of such estate. 55. In an action against a railroad com- pany, by a passenger, to recover damages for injuries sustained on the road, it is not compulsory upon the plaintiff to prove ac- tual negligence in the defendants ; but it is obligatory on the part of the latter to prove that the injury was not owing to any fault or negligence of theirs. 56. A guest is a competent witness, in an action between himseli and an inn-keeper, to prove the character and value of lost personal baggage. Money in a trunk, not exceeding the amount reasonably required by the traveler to defray the expenses of the journey which he has undertaken, is a part of his baggage ; and in case of its loss, while at any inn, the plaintiff may prove its amount by his own testimony. 57. The deed of a minor is not absolutely void. The court is authorized to judge, from the instrument, whether it is void or not, according to its terms being favorable or unfavorable to the interests of the minor. 68. A married woman can neither sue nor be sued on any contract made by her dur- ing her marriage, except in an action relat- ing to her individual property. The action must be commenced either by or against her husband. It is only when an action is brought on a contract made by her be- fore her marriage, that she is to be joined as a co-plaintifl; or defendant, with her hus- band. 59. Any contract made with a person ju- dicially declared a lunatic is void. 60. Money paid voluntarily in any trans- action, with a knowledge of the facts, can- not be recovered. 61. In all cases of special contract for ser- vices, except in the case of a minor, the plaintifF can recover only the amount stip- ulated in the contract. 62. A wife is a competent witness with her husband, to prove the contents of a lost trunk, or when a party. 3. A wife cannot be convicted of receiv- ing stolen goods when she received them ofner husband. 64. Insurance against flre, by lightning or otherwise, does not cover loss by lightning when there is no combustion. 65. Failure to prove plea of justification, in a case of slander, aggravates the offence. 66. It is the agreement of the parties to sell by sample that constitutes a sale by sample, not the mere exhibition of a speci- men of the goods. 67. An agent is liable to his principals for loss caused by his misstatements, tho' unintentional. 68. Makers of promissory notes given in advance for premiums on policies of insur- ance, thereafter to be taken, are liable there- on. 69. An agreement to pay for procuring an appointment to office is void. 70. An attorney may plead the statute of limitations, when sued tty a client for mon- ey which he has collected and failed to pay over. 71. Testimony given by a deceased wit- ness on first trial, is not required to be re- peated verbatim on the second. 72. A person entitling himself to a reward offered for lost property, has a lien upon the property for the reward : but only when a definite reward is offered. 73. Confession by a prisoner mnst be vol- untarily made,to constitute evidence against him. 74. The defendant in a suit must be serv- ed with process ; but service of such pro- cess upon his wife, even in his absence from the State, Is not, in the absence of statuto- ry provisions, sufficient. ^ LA W MAXIMS. 49 75. The measure of damages In trespass for cutting timber, is its v^ue as a chattel on the land where it was felled, and not the market price of the lumber manufactured. 76. To support an Indictment for mali- cious mischief in killing an animal, mal- ice towards its owner must be shown, not merely passion excited against the animal itself. 77. No aption can be maintained against a sheriff for omitting to account for money- obtained upon an execution within a reas- onable time. He has till the return day to render such account. 78. An interest in the profits of an enter- prise, as profits, renders the party hold- ing it a partner in the enterprise, and mtfkea him presumptively liabfe to share any loss. 79. Males can marry at fourteen, and fe- males at twelve years of age, 80. All cattle found at large upon any pub- lic road, can be driven by any person to the public pound. 81. Any dog chasing, barking, or other- wise threatening a passer-by in any street, lane, road, or other public thoroughfare, may be lawfully killed for the same. 83. A written promise for the payment of such amount as may come into the hands of the promisor, is held to be an instru- ment in writing for the payment of money. 83. The declaration of an agent is not ad- missible to establish the fact of agency. — But when other proper evidence is given, tending to establish the fact of agency, it is not error to admit the declarations of the agent, accompanying acts, though tend- ing to show the capacity in which he act- ed. When evidence is competent in one respect ana incompetent in another, it is the duty of the court to admit it, and con- trol its effects by suitable instructions to the jury. 84. The court has a general power to re- move or suspend an attorney for such im- moral conduct as rendered him unworthy of confidence in his official capacity. 85. Bankruptcy is pleadable in bar to all actions and in all courts, and this bar may be avoided whenever it is interposed, by showing fraud in the procurement of the discharge, or a violation of any of the pro- visions of the bankrupt act. 86. An instrument in the form of a deed, but limited to take effect at the termination of the grantor's natural life, is held to be a deed, not a will. 87. A sale will not be set aside as ftand- nlent, simply because the buyer was at the time unable to make the payment agreed upon, and knew hia inability, and did not intend' to pay. 88. No man is under an obligation to make known his circumstances when he is buying goods. 89. Contractmg parties are bound to dis- close matenal facts known to each, but of which either supposes the other to be igno- rant only when they stand in some special relation of trust and confidence in relation to the subject matter of the contract. But neither will be protected if he does any- thing howevef shght, to mislead or deceive the other, 90. A contract negotiated by mail is formed when notice of acceptance of the of- fer IS duly deposited in the post-oflice, pro- perly addressed. This rule apphes, although the party making the offer expressly re- quires that If it 16 accepted, speedy notice of acceptance shall be given htm. 91. The date of an instrument is so far a material part of it, that an alteration of the date by the holder after execution, makes the instrument void. 9S. A corporation may maintain an action for libel, for words published of them and relating to its trade or business, by which it has incurred special damages. 93. It is unprofessional for a lawyer who has abandoned his case without trying it, a term or two before trial, to claim a fee conditional upon the success of his client, although his client was euccessfol. 94. Although a party obtaining damages for injuries received through the default of another, was himself guilty of negligence, yet that will not defeat his recovery, unless his negligence contributed to cause the in- jury. 95. A person may contract to labor for an- other during life, in consideration of receiv- ing his support ; but his creditors have the right to inquire into the intention with which such arrangement is made, and it will be set aside if entered into to deprive them of his future earnings. 96. A grantor may by express terms ex- clude the bed of a river, or a highway, mentioned as boundary; but if without language of exclusion a line is described as ' alongP or ' upon,' or as ' running to ' the highway or river, or as ' by,' or ' running to the bank of the river; these expressions carry the grantee to the center of the high- way or river. 97. The court will take^ains to construe the words used in a deed m such a way as to effect the intention of the parties, how- ever unskillfully the instrument may be drawn. But a court of law cannot exchange an intelligible word plainly employed in a deed for another, l^wever evident it may be that the word used was used by mistake for another. 98. One who has lost his memory and understanding is entitled to legal protec- tion, whether such loss is occasioned by his own misconduct or by an act of Provi- dence. 60 LAW MAXIMS. 99. When a wife leaves her huebatid vol- nutarily, it must be shown, in order to make him liable for necessaries famished to her, that she could not stay with safety. Personal violence, either threatened or in- flicted, will be sufficient cause for such sep- aration. 100. Necessaries of dress famished to a discarded wife must correspond with the pecuniary circumstances of the husband, and be such articles as the wife, if prudent, would expect, and the husband should furnish, if the parties lived haraioniously together. 101. A fugitive from justice from one of the United States to another, may be arrested and detained in order to Ms surrender by authority of the latter, without a previous demand for his surrender by the executive of the State whence he fled. 102.

Money paid for the purpose of set- tling or compounding a prosecution for a supposed felony, cannot be recovered back by a party paying it. 104. An innkeeper is liable for the death of an animal in his poeeession, but may free himself from liability by showing that the death was not occasioned by negligence on his part. 105. Notice to the agent of a company is notice to the company. 106. An employer is not liable to one of his employes for aninjury sustained by the latter in consequence of the neglect of oth- ers of his employes engaged in the same general business. 107. Where a purchaser at a Sheriff's sale bas bid the fall price of property under the erroneous belief that the sale would di- vest the property of all liens, it is the duty of the court to give relief by setting aside the sale. 108. When notice of protest is properly sent bv mail, it may be sent by the mail of the day of the dishonor- if not, it must be mailed for the mail of the next day ; ex- cept that if there is none, or it closes at an unseasonably early hour, then notice must be mailed iji season for the nest possible mail. 109. A powder-house located in a populous part of a city, and containing large qi^anti- tiee of gunpowder, is a nuisance. 110. When the seller of goods accepts at the time of the sale, the note of a third per- son, unindorsed by the purchaser, in pay- ment, the presumption is that the pay- ment was intended to be absolute ; and **! though the note should be dishonored, the purchaser will not be liable for the value of the goods. 111. A man charged with crime before a committing magistrate, but discharged on his own recognizance, is not privileged from arrest on civil process while returning from the magistrate s office. 112. When one has been Induced to sell goods by means of false pretences, he can- not recover them from one who has bona fide purchased and obtained possession of them from the fraudulent vendor. 113. If the circumstances attendant upon a sale and delivery of personal property are such as usually and naturally accompany such a transaction, it cannot be declared a leD:al fraud upon creditors. 114. A stamp impressed upon an instm ment by way of seal, is good as a seal, if it creates a durable impression in the texture of the paper. 115.

DECIMAL SYSTEM OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES. 61 THE DECIMAL SYSTEM OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES. As Anfflorized ly Act ol Congress-Approvel My 28, 1866. STANDARDS. In everj' system of Weights and Measarea It is necessary to liave what are called "Standards,"^ as the ponnd, yard, gallon, &c., to be divided and mnltiplied into smaller and larger parte and denominations. The definition and construction of these Standards involve philosophical and scien- tific principles of a somewhat abstruse character, and are made and procured by the legislative department of the govern- ment. The nominal Standards in the new system are the Meter, the Abb, the Liter, and the Gram. The only real Standard, the one by which all the other standards are measured, and from which the system de- rives its name of *' Metric," is the Meter. THE METER Is need for all measures of length, distance, breadth, depth, heighth, &c., and was in- tended to be, and is very nearly, one ten- millionth of the distance on the earth's surface from the equator to the pole. It is about 39% inches, or 8 feet, 3 inches and 3 eighths, and is to be substituted for the yard. THE ARE Is a surface whose side is ten Meters, and is equal to 100 square Meters or about 4 square rods. THE LITER Is the unit for measuring solids and capa- city, and is equal to the contents of a cube Whose edge is one-tenth of a meter. It is about equal to 1 quart, and is a standard in cubic, dry and liquid measures. ^~ A cubic Meter (or Kllollter) is called a sUre, and is also usedas a standard in cer- tain cubic measures. THE GRAM Is the Unit of weight, and is the weight of a cube of pure water, each edge of the cube being one one-hundredth of a Meter. It is about equal to 15>i grains. It is intended as the Standard in oM weights, and with its divisions and multiples, to supersede the use of what are now called Avoirdupois, Apothecaries and Troy Weights. Each of the foregoing Standards is divi- ded decimally, and larger units are also formed by multiples of 10, 100, &c. The successive subordinate parts are designa- ted by the prefixes Deci, Centi and MiUi ; the successive multiples by Deka, Hecto, Kilo and Myria ; each having its own nu- merical signification, as will be more clear- ly seen in the tables hereinafter given. The tenns used may, at first sight, have a formidable appearance, seem diflicult to pronounce, and to retain in memory, and to be, therefore, objectionable; but with a lit- tle attention and use, the apprehended dif- ficulty will be found more apparent than real, as has been abundantly proved by ex- perience. The importance, also, of con- formity in the use of commercial terms, on the part of the United States, with the practice of the many nations in which the system, with its present nomeTiclature, has already been adopted, must greatly over- balance the comparatively slight objection alluded to. 62 DECIMAL SYSTEM OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.

' Discount and Premium* When a person buys an article for $1,00— 20 per cent off, (or discount,) and sells it again for $1,00, lie makes a profit of 25 per cent, on Me investment. Thus : He pays 80 cents and sells for $1,00— a gain of 20 cents, or 25 per cent of 80 cents. And for any transaction where the sale or purchase of gold, silver, or currency is concerned, the following rules will apply in all cases. Etjle Ist,— To find premium when dis- count is given : Multiply 100 by rate of discount and divide by 100, less rate of dis- count. Rule 2d.— To find discount when pre- mium is given. Multiply the rate of interest by 100, and divide by 100, plus the rate of premium. Suppose A has $140 in currency, which he wishes to exchange for gold, when gold is 27 per cent, premium, now much gold should he receive P In this case the pre- mium is given, consequently we must find the discount on A' s currency and subtract it from the $140, as per rule 3d, showing the discount to be a trifle more than 21 per cent, and that he should receive $110.60 in W' " ' +11 15 " " ' mn " " ;; 20 " " ' 25 " " " 25" ' 33>i " " " SO" ' *43 " " ■ 40 " " ' m% " " 60 " " ' 100 " t^- A dagge r (+) denotes the profits to be a fraction more than specified.

In large cities nothing is more common than to see lar»e business establishments, which seem to have an immense advantage over all competitors, by the wealth, expe- rience, and prestige they have acquired, drop gradually out of public view, and be succeeded by firms of a smaller capital, more energy, and more determined to have the fact that they sell such and such com- modities known from one end of the land to the other. In other words, the establish- ments advertise; the old die of dignity,— The former are ravenous to pass out of ob- scurity into publicity ; the latter believe that their publicity is so obvious that it cannot be obscured. The first understand that they must thrust themselves upon public attention, or be disregarded; the second, having once obtained public atten- tion, suppose they have arrested it perma- nently; while, in fact, nothing is more char- acteristic of the world than the ease with which it forgets. Stephen Girard, than whom no shrewder business man ever lived, used to say : I have always considered advertising liber- ally and lonff to be the great medium of success in "business, and the prelude to wealth. And I have made it an invariable rule too, to advertise in the dullest times as well as the busiest ; long experience having taught me that money thus spent is well laid out ; as by keeping my business continually before the public it has secured me many sales that I would otherwise have lost.

The follow- ing is a recipe for it ; it is gleaned from the National Intelligencer, with some addi- tional improvements learned by experi- ments : Take half a bushel of nice nn- slacked lime, slack it with boiling water, cover it during the process to keep in the steam. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve or strainer, and add to it a peck of salt, previously well dissolved in warm wa- ter ; three pounds of ground rice, boiled to a thin paste, and stirred in boiling hot ; lia-l^ a pound of powdered Spanish whiting, and a pound of clean glue, which has been pre- viougly dissolved by soaking it well, and then hanging it over a slow nre, in a small kettle within a large one filled with water. Add five gallons ofhot water to the mixture, stir it well, and let it stand a few days cov- ered from the dirt. It should be put on right hot ; for this purpose it can be kept in a kettle on a portable furnace. It is said that about a pint of this mixture will cover a square yard upon the outside of a house if proper- y applied. Brushes more or less small may be used according to the neatness of the job required. It answers as well as oil paint for wood, brick or stone, and is cheaper. It retains its brilliancy for many years. There is nothing of tne kind that will compare with it, either for inside or outside walls. Coloring matter may be put in and made of any shade you like. Spanish brown stirred in. will make red pink, more or less deep according to the quantity. A delicate tinge of this is very pretty, for inside walls. Finely pulverized common clay, well mixed with Spanish brown, makes a reddish stone color. Yellow-ochre stirred in makes yel- low wash, but chrome goes further, and makes a color generally esteemed prettier. In all these cases the darkness of the shades of course is determined by the quantity of coloring used. It is difficult to make rules, because tastes are different. It would be best to try experiments on a shingle and let it dry. We have been told that green must not be mixed with lime. The lime de- stroys the color, and the color has an effect on»the whitewash, which makes it crack and peel. When Vails have been badly smoked, and you wish to have them a clean white, it is well to squeeze indigo plenti- fully through a bag into the water you use, before it is stirred in the whole mixture. If a larger quantity than five gallons be wanted, the same proportion should be ob- served. HoKV to get a Horse ont of a Fire. The gi'eat difllculty of getting horses from a stable where surrounding buildings are in a state of conflagation, is well known. — The plan of covering their eyes vrith a blan- ket will not always succeed. A gentleman whose horses have been in great peril from such a cause, having tried in vain to save them, hit upon the expedi- ent of having them harnessed as though go- ing to their usual work, when, to his aston- ishment, they were led from the Stable without difficulty. The Chemical Barometer. Take a long narrow bottle, such as an old- fashioned Eau-de-Cologne bottle, and put into it two and a half drachms of camphor, and eleven drachms of spirits of wine ; when the camphor is dissolved, which it will readily do by slight agitation, add the following mixture : Take water, nine drachms ; nitrate of potash (saltpetre) thirty-eight grains ; and muriate of am- monia (eal ammoniac) thirty-eight grains. Dissolve these salts in the water prior to mixing with the camphorated spirit { then shake the whole weU together. C'oric the bottle well, and wax the top, but after- wards make a very small aperture in the cork with a red-hot needle. The bottle may then be hung up, or placed in any stationa- ry position. By observing the different appearances which the materials assume, as the weather changes, it becomes an ex- cellent prognosticator of a coming storm or of a sunny sky. licech Barometer. Take an eight ounce phial, and put in it three gills of water, and place in it a healthy leech, changing the water in summer once a week, and in winter once in a fortnight, and it will most accurately prognosticate the weather. If the weather is lo be fine, the leech lies motionless at the bottom of the glass and coiled together in a spiral form ; if rain may be expected, it wiH creep up to the top of its lodgings and remain there till the weather is settled ; if we are to have wind, it will move through its habi- tation with amazing swiftness, and seldom goes to rest tiU it begins to blow hard ; if a remarkable storm of thunder and rain is to succeed, it will lodge for some days before almost continually out of the water, and discover great uneasiness in violent throes and convulsive-like motions ; in frost as in clear summer-like weather it lies constantly at the bottom ;. and in snow as in rainy weather it pitches its dwelling in the very mouth of the phial. The top should be cov- ered over with apiece of muslin. To Mbabttre Grain in a Bin.— Find the number of cubic feet,, from which deduct one-Jifth. The remainder is the number of bushels — allowing, however, one bushel extra to every 224. Thus in a remainder of 224 there would be 225 bushels.

YAL UABLE RECIPES. 59 Water Pboop fob Lbathbr.— Take lin- eeed oil 1 pint, yellow wax and white tur- pentine each 2 ozb. Burgundy pitch 1 oz., melt and color with lampolack. To Keep Cidbr Swbet,— Put into each barrel, immediately after making, X lb. ground mustard, 3 oz. salt and 2 oz. pulver- ized chalk. Stir them in a little cider, pour them into the barrel, and ehake up well. Ague CimE.— Procure IX table-spoons of fresh mandrake root juice, (by pounding) and mix with the same quantity of molas- ses, and take in three equal doses, 3 hours a part, the whole to be taken 1 hour before the chill cornea on. Take a swallow of some good bitters before meals, for a couple of weeks after the chills are broken, and the cure will be permanent. Cure for Salt Rheum or Scurvy. — Take of the pokeweed, anytime in sum- mer; pound It ; press out the juice 5 strain it into a pewter dish; set it in the sun till it becomes a salve — then put it into an earth- en mug: add to it fresh water and bees' wax sufficient to make an ointment of com- mon consistency ; simmer the whole over a fire till thoroughly mixed. When cold, rub the part affected. The patient will al- most immediately experience its good ef- fects, and the most obstinate cases will be cured in three or four months. Tested. — The juice of the ripe berries may be pre- pa red in the same way. Superior Paint— for Brick Houbbb.— To lime whitewash, add for a fastener, sul- phate of zinc, and snade with any color you choose, as yellow ochre, Venetian red, etc. It outlasts oil paint. Fblons,— Stir 1 oz. of Venice turpentine with X tea-spoonftil of water, till it looks like candied honey, and apply by spreading upon cloth and wrapping around the finger. If not too long delayed will cure in 6 hours. A poke root poultice is also said to be a sure remedy. Water-Proof Blackikg ani> Harness Polish. — Take two and a half ounces gum shellac and half a pint of alcohol, and set in a warm place until dissolved; then add two and a half ounces Venice turpentine to neutralize the alcohol ; add a tableepoon- ful of lampblack. Apply vpith a fine sponge. It will give a good pousn over oil or grease. MosQUiTOS. — To get rid of these tormen- tors, take a few hot coals on a shovel, or a chafing dieh, and burn upon them some brown sugar in your bed-roomsand parlors, and you effectually banish or destroy every mosquito for the night. Cheap Outside Paint.— Take two parts fin bulk) of water lime ground fine, one part (in bulk) of white lead ground in oil. Mix them thoroughly, by adding best boiled lin- seed oil, enough to prepare it to pass through a paint mill, after which temper with oil till it can be applied with a common paint brush. Make any color to suit. It will last three times aB longaB lead paint, and cost not one-fourth as much. It is Superior. Cure tor a Couoh. — A strong decoction of the leaves of the pine, sweetened with loaf sugar. Take a wme-glase warm on go- ing to bed, and half an hour before eating three times a day. The above is sold as a cough syrup, and is doing wonderftil cures, and it is sold at a great profit to the manu- facturers. BLOW to Judge a Horse. A correspondent, contrary to old maxims, undertakes to judge the character of ahorse by outward appearances, and offers the fol- lowing suggestions, the result of his close observation and long experience : If the color be light sorrell, or chestnut, his feet, legs and face white, these are marks of kinonesB. If he is broad and full between the eyes, he may be depended on as a horse of good sense, and capable of be- ing trained to anything. As respects such horses, the more kindly you treat them the better vou will be treat- ed in return. Nor will a horse of this de- scription stand a whip, if well fed. If you want a safe horse, avoid one that is dish-f^ced. He may be so far gentle as not to scare; but he will have too much go- ahead in him to be safe with everybody. If you want a fool, but a horse of great bottom, get a deep bay, with not a white hair aboul him. If his face is a little dish- ed, so much the worse. Let no man ride Buch a horse that is not an adept in riding —they are alwaye tricky and unsafe. If you want one that will never give out, never buy a large, overgrown one. A black horse cannot stand heat, nor a white one cold. If you want a gentle horse, get one with more or less white about tne head ; the more the better. Many persons suppose the parti-colored horses belonging to the circuses, shows, &c., are selected for their oddity. But the selections thus made are on account of their great docility and gen- tleness. IVIeasaremeiit of Hay in tbe moiv or Stack,— It is often desirable, where conveniences for weighing are not at hand, to purchase and sell hay by measure- ment. It is evident that no fixed rule will answer in all cases, as it would require more cubic feet at the top of a mow than at the bottom. The general rule adopted by those who have tested it, is that a cube, each side of which shall measure eight feet, oi solid Timothy hajr ae taken from mow or bottom of stack will weigh a ton.

BROOME COUNTY was formed from Tioga, March 28, 1806, and named in honor of John Broome of New York, who was then Lieut. Gov. of the State, and who acknowledged the compliment by presenting the County with a handsomely executed silver seal, appropriately designed by himself, em- blematical of the name. Berkshire and Owego were annexed to Tioga County, March 31, 1833. It is situated near the center of the south border of the State, centrally distant 110 miles from Albany, and contains 706 square miles. Its surface is greatly diversified, consisting of rolling and hilly uplands, broad river intervales and the narrow valleys of small streams. The hills extend from the Pennsylvania line northerly through the County. They are divided into three general ranges by the valleys of the Susquehanna and Chenango rivers. The first range, lying east of the Susquehanna, forms the east border of the County. Its highest summits are 400 to 700 feet above the Delaware, and 1,400 to 1,700 feet above tide. The dechvities of the hills are usually steep, and the summits spread out into a broad and hilly upland. This ridge is divided by the deep ravines of a large number of small streams, and in several places it rises into peaks. The second ridge lies in the great bend of the Susquehanna, and is bounded by the valleys of that river and the Chenango. The highest summits are 300 to 500 feet above the Susquehanna, and 1,300 to 1,400 feet above tide. The hills are generally bounded by gradual slopes, and the summits are broad, rolling uplands. The southern portion of this ridge is high above the valleys ; but towards the north the hilly character subsides into that of a fine rolling region. The third ridge lies west of the Chenango and Susquehanna rivers. Its summits are a little less in elevation than those of the second ridge ; and the general characteristics of the two re- gions are similar. The wide valley of the Susquehanna divides it into two distinct parts, the southern of which is more hilly than the northern. The hills in the central and western parts 62 \B ROOMS COUNTY. of the County are rounded and arable to their summits. The narrow valleys that break the continuity of the ridges are usually bordered by gradually sloping hillsides.* The geological formation of the County is so exceedingly simple that it scarcely received notice in the report of the geo- logical and mineralogical surveying party of the State at an early day. It possesses little attraction to the scientist. The principal rock is graywacke, which is found lying in strata, in a nearly horizontal position, in all the hills and in the beds of the largest streams, and which forma the basis of the moun- tains. All the rocks are included in the Chemung and Cats- kill groups. The former — consisting of slaty sandstone and shales — occupies all the north and west portions of the County ; and the latter — consisting of gray and red sandstone, red shale and slate — crown all the summits in the south and east por- tions. Much of the more level portions of the surface is cov- ered to a considerable depth by depositions of sand, gravel, clay and hardpan. The rocks crop out only upon the declivities and summits of the hills.f The valleys throughout the County give evidence of having been excavated by the action of water, whose currents exerted a force immensely greater than any which seek the ocean through these channels at the present day. Their origin is referred by geologists to the drift period — a time when the gorgeous hillsides which now afford so many attractive homes, were inundated, and the productive vales pulverized and prepared by the mighty agencies then at work for the occupancy of man. Weak brine springs were early found, extending for several miles along the valley of Halfway Brook in the north part of the County.| Sulphur and other mineral springs are found in various parts of the County. § Several excavations for coal have been made, but without suc- * French's Bisiorical arwJ Statistical Gazetteer of New York. + "The pebbles found in and near the banks of the Susquehanna and Chenango rivers," says Wilkinson, in the Annals of Binghamton, "exhibit an astonishing variety : garnet, tourmaline, quartz, agate, hornatone, porphyry, granite, jasper, feldspar, hornblend, dark blue limestone, and conglomerates of almost every character are occasionally picked up and added to the cabinet of the naturalist." i Several years since a boring was commenced in Lisle, on the site of an old deer lick, and was continued to a depth of more than 400 feet, without any practical result. More recent attempts have been made to develope the springs in the valley of Halfway Brook, in the town of Barker, a more detailed account of which will be given in the history of that town. §A sulphur spring has for some time been developed in the town of Nanticoke ; and one was recently discovered at Osborne Hollow, in the town of ColesvUle, while a shaft was being sunk to ascertain the depth of a vein of lead, traces of which are found there. A chalybeate spring was recently discovered in Binghamton, in fhe history of which town a more detailed account of it wUl be given.

It is believed that the County has no valuable minerals, or at least none in sufficient quantity to render them profitable. Traces of copper and nickel are sup- posed to have been found at Osborne Hollow, but too little is known regarding it to warrant an assertion. The principal streams are the Susquehanna, Delaware, Chen- ango, Tioughnioga and Otselic rivers ; Oquaga, Okkauum, Nanticoke, Little Snake, Big and Little Choconut, Castle, Yorkshire, Bradley, Tracy and Kattel creeks ; and Halfway, Page and North brooks.* * The Susquehauna, having Its rise in Otsego Lake, enters the County at Nineveh, on the north line of Colesville, passing in a southerly direction through that town and Windsor, and leaves the County near the south- east corner of the latter town. After forming the great bend in Penn. it again enters the County on the south line, and runs in a north-westerly direction to the north of Conklin, forming the division between that town and Kirkwood, when it turns and flows nearly due west through the town and city of Binghamton, forming the dividing line between Union and Vestal, and leaves the County on the west border, on the line of these two towns. Passing nearly its entire length through mountainous country, whose prominences are ofttimes abrupt and irregular, it is sub- jected to frequent changes in its course ; and though this feature detracts from its value for navigable puposes, it adds vastly to the beauty of the country adjacent to its banks. In its upper course through the County its valley is contracted and rendered narrow by the high and steep declivities through which it meanders ; but further west it expands into broad inter- vales, skirted by gradually sloping hillsides. The usually placid surface of its clear, sparlding waters, the gently receding banks, dotted with the evidences of thrift and industry and mechanical ingenuity, and crowned with the alternating foliage of the forest and cultivated field, combine to present the picture of rare and quiet beauty for which it is so celebrated. This picture is varied at intervals by its more wild and rugged aspects, which develope a romantic beauty, at times approaching the sublime. In Smith's history of Virginia, the name of this river is written Sas- que-sa-'han-nough ; and by Mr. Morgan, in the Onondaga dialect, Qa-wa- .no^vcir-nOr-neh. This last name, says C. P. Avery, in a paper on The Sus- quehanna Valley, which appears in The Saint Nicholas of March, 1854, is pronounced as follows : "The first and third a pronounced as in the syllable ah ; the second one as in fate ; the fourth as in at." The Delaware forms the soutliem portion of the east boundary of the County, commencing at the village of Deposit, and flowing in a south-east direction, through a deep, rocky valley, bordered by steep and often precipitous hills. The Chenango enters the County on the north line, a little east and north of Chenango Forks, and pursuing a southerly direction, forming in its course the boundary between the towns of Chenango and Fenton, augments the Susquehanna, with which it unites near the southern limits of the city of Binghamton. In the north part, the valley of this river is hemmed in by high ridges ; but in the south it expands into abroad inter- vale. It has a uniform descent of five or six feet to the mUe, and is free from rapids and sudden turns. Upon Guy Johnson's map of 1771, this river is named Ol-si-nin-goo ; upon DeWitt's map of about the year 1791, Che-ne7h-go ; and in Mr. Mor- gan's work, O-che-nang. — The Saint Nicholas, March, 1854, p. 412. The -'Indian name," says French, in his State Gazetteer, is " 0-nan-no- gir-is-ka, Shagbark hickory," the second and fifth syllables in the name being accented. 64 BROOME COUNTT. The soil along the river intervales is generally very fertile, consisting of deep, sandy and gravelly loam, mixed with disinte- grated slate and vegetable mold. The narrow valleys of the smaller streams are also fertile. The soil upon the north and west hills consists principally of gravelly loam intermixed with clay and disintegrated shale, and is well adapted to grazing. The declivities of the south and east hills are similar to the last in character, but their summits are generally covered with clay and hardpan. The large proportion of upland and the unevenness of the surface render this County best adapted to pasturage. While all branches of agriculture are pursued, The Tioughnioga enters the County ou the north, from Cortland county, and flows in a south-east direction, through the east part of Lisle, the south-west corner of Triangle and diagonally (from north-west to south- east,) across the town of Barker, until it unites with the Chenango at Chenango -Forks. Its valley is very narrow, being bordered by high and steep hills. " This name is formed from Te-ah-hah-hogue, the meeting of roads and waters'at the same place." — Spafford's Gazetteer of New York, 1813, p. 176. The Otselic also enters the County from the north, and like the Tiough- nioga, into which it empties at Whitneys Point, flows through a narrow valley, through the west part of Triangle. Oquaga Creek enters the County on the north line of Sanford and flows south through the center of that town to McClure Settlement, when it turns east and empties into the Delaware at Deposit. By the early missionaries this creek was called Onuh-huh-quah-geh, and by the Iroquois, no w in Canada, It is so pronounced. Upon an early map it is named O-nogh-qua-gy. — The Saint Nicholas, March, 1854, p. 413. Okkanum Creek, which flows east through the north-west part of Wind- sor ; Nanticoke Creek, which flows south through Lisle, Nauticoke, Maine and Union, nearly to the south-west corner of the latter towij ; Little Snake Creek, which rises in the south-east corner of Vestal and flows east through Binghamton and Conklin ; Big and Little Choconut* Creeks, the former of which rises in Penn. and flows north-west through the center of Vestal, and the latter, in the north-west part of Chenango and flows south through the south-east part of Maine, north-east part of Union, crossing in a south westerly direction the north-west corner of Binghamton, and westerly through the south-east corner of Union ; and Tracy Creek, which rises in Penn. and flows north through the west part of Vestal, are tribu- tary to the Susquehanna. Castle Creek, which rises in the south-west part of Barker and flows south through Chenango ; Kattel Creek, which rises in the north-east part of Chenango and flows south through that town ; and Page Brook, which enters the County near the center of the north line of Fenton and flows south-west, are tributary to the Chenango. Yorkshire Creek, which enters the County from Cortland County, in the north-west corner of Lisle, and flows south-east through that town ; and Halfway Brook, which also enters this County from Cortland, near the north-east corner of Triangle, and flows south through the east part of that town and to the north-east part of Barker, when it turns west, are tributary to the Tioughnioga. Bradley Creek, rises in the east part of Maine, through which town it flows, in a south-west direction, and emp- ties into Nanticoke Creek a little south of Union Center. North Brook rises in the west central part of Sanford and pursues a south-east course to Oquaga Creek, with which it unites a little south of McOlure Settlement. ♦Choconut, upon .an early map, Is written Chugh-nult.

A stronger disposition to engage in this branch of industry is manifest. The County Seat is located at Binghamton, at the junction of the Susquehanna and Chenango rivers. Previous to the erec- tion of this County, Binghamton (then Chenango Point) was a half-shire of Tioga County, and courts were held a part of the time at the house of J. Whitney, until 1803, in which year a court housef was erected. The County (Tioga) was divided into two jury districts in 1801. In 1828^ an act authorizing the erection of a new court house passed the Legislature, and $5,000 were raised in the County for that purpo8e.§ In 1857 the court house erected in 1828 was superseded by the present elegant structure, which is located at the head of Chenango street, fronting on Court street. || The County Clerk's office is a fire-proof building situated on court house square, adjacent to * French's State Gazetteer. + The first court house was located on the north-west corner of Court and Chenango streets, fronting on Court street. In size it was about 36s:i4 feet, finished in a plain and hasty style, and contained two log jail rooms, a room for the residence of the jailor beloW, and the court room above. It was afterwards moved across the road, and stood a little down from the top of Court hiU. — Annals of Binghamton, p. 18a. The first county officers were : Gen. John Patterson of Lisle, First Judge ; James Stoddard of Lisle, Amos Patterson of Union, Daniel Hud- son of Chenango and Geo. Harper and Mason Wattles of Windsor, Aa- sociate Judqcs, (the last named two were added in 1807, the year following that in which the County was erected,) Ashbel Wells of Binghamton, County Clerk; and Wm. Woodmff, Shenff. The first court was held on tha second Tuesday in May, 1806, and the first cause tried under the authori- ty of this County was between Amraphael Hotchkiss and Nathan Lane jr. — a civil suit. The first criminal cause was the people against Ebeuezer Centre. i Annals of Blngliamton, p. 217. French says the first court house was superseded by the erection of a new one in 1836. § Ami Doubleday|, G rover Buel and Geo. Wheeler were appointed com- missioners to superintend the construction of the work. II This last building is ninety-six feet long and fifty-eight feet wide. The basement is built of stone and the upper stories of brick. A Grecian portico supported by four Ionic pillars, each six feet in diameter and thirty-six feet high, adds beauty and finish to the front. Its fine dome is surmounted by a statue of justice, whose evenly balanced scales, it is hoped, are a true symbol of the equity meted out iu its courts. It contains the usual county offices, the rooms for which are large, convenient and well ventilated. It was erected at a cost of $3^,000. 66 BBOOMB COVNTY. the court house.* The jail is on Hawley street a short distance from the court house.f The County Poor House is located on a farm of 130 acres, about three miles north of Binghamton, on the west side of the Chenango River. Of its management, the committee appoint- ed to inspect it in 1871, say in their report, " that we found the house in excellent order; and everything (apparently) done for the unfortunate inmates, that the liberality of the County and the kind and humane treatment of the keeper and his family could do to make them comfortable." The children receive in- struction at the Susquehanna Valley Home, in the city of Bingham ton.J *Thi8 building is to be superseded by one now in process of erection, in tlie rear of the present one. The basement of the new building is being constructed of stone, and the upper story will be built of brick, with stone trimmings. Its front will be forty-six feet and two inches, its length sixty-eight feet and four inches, and its height above ground thirty-one feet" and six inches. The upper story will consist of three commo- dious rooms, one of which will be used for the office of the clerk, one for that of the recording clerk, and the third as a depository for legal documents. The basement is designed to be used for storing docu- ments to which reference is seldom made. It will be a tasty, flre-proof structure, and furnished with modern improvements. The County appro- priated, Dec. 6, 1871, $16,000 for its erection. The following is an abstract of the first deed recorded in the clerk's office of Broome County : "This Indenttjeb made the twenty fonrth day of March, in the year of our Lord one thousand elghi hundred and ^x.hetween James Harvey of the town of Union and county of Tioga, and Catharine, his wile, on the one part, and Lewis k eeler of the town of Chenango and county aforesaid, of the other part, for and in consideration of the sum of Two Hundred Dollars, to them in hand paid, at or before the ensealing and delivery of the presents, by the said party of the second part, the receipt whereof is hereby acknowledged.

The third deed recorded is a conveyance from John and Peter Augustus Jay, esquires, of Bedfoid, Westchester county, to Garret Williamson, far- mer, of the same place, and bears date of Nov !J9, 1805. It was recorded May 20, 1806. By It one hundred acres, a part of sixteen thousand acires granted by letters patent to Jay and Rutheiford in 1787, is conveyed. + The portion of the jail containing the cells was built in 1858, at a cost of 815,000. In its construction due provisions were made for the safety, health and classification of prisoners. — French's Gazetteer, p. 179. i From the report of the Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors in 1871 we glean the following interesting particulars relative to the poor of the County : The whole number of paupers relieved or supported during the year ending Dec. 1, 1871, was 1,602, all of whom were County paupers. The number of persons temporarily relieved was 1,375. The aggregate ex- pense of relieving and supporting paupers was 823,437.48. Of this sum the amount expended for temporary relief was $10,961.10. The actual value of the labor of the paupers maintained was $1,200; the estimated amount saved in their support in consequence of their labor was $500 ; and the sum actually expended independent of the labor and earnings of the paupers, divided by the average number kept during the year, gives $1.54 per week, as the actual expense of keeping each person. The number of paupers re- ceived into the Poor House during the year was 160, two of whom were BBOOUE COUNTY. 67 The principal works of internal improvement are the Che- nango Canal*; the N. Y. & Erie K. R. f ; the Syracuse, Bing- born there. The number who died during the year was five ; the number bound out, two ; and the number discharged, 141. The number remaining in the Poor House Deo. 1, 1871, was 79, of whom 43 were males and 36, fe- males. Of the males, three were of the age of sixteen years or under, and of the females, two. Of the seventj'-nine inmates, twenty-two were for- eigners ; ten, lunatics ; thirteen, idiots ; two, mutes ; and one was blind. The number of insane paupers, supported by the County, and remaining in Willard Asylum, at Ovid, Dec. 1, 1871, was eleven.

It connects the Erie Canal at XJtica with the Susquehanna River at Binghamton. It is ninety-seven miles long, exclusive of thirteen and thre«-fourths miles of feeders, none of which are navigable. It Is supplied by the Chenango River and six res- ervoirs, viz : Madison Brook, Woodmans Pond, Lelands Pond, Bradleys Brook, Hatchs Lake and Baton Brook reservoirs, all of which are in the south part of Madison County. The Canal extends across to and up the valley of Oriskany Creek to the summit level and down the valley of Che- nango River.

It enters the County on the north line of Fenton and follows the course of the Chenango, on the east side. Attempts have been made to effect the extension of this Canal to Athens, Penu., and large appropriations have been made by the State for that purpose and considerable work done, but it still remains a huge, un- finished ditch, with little prospect of its being perfected according to the original design. Efforts, which seem likely to prove successful, are being made to secure from the State the right of way along this route for the road-bed of a new railroad. + The N. Y. & Erie B. R. was authorized April 24, 1833, and the com- pany organized in July, 1833. The first preliminary survey was made in 1832, by DeWitt Clinton, Jr., by order of the Government. In 1834 the Governor appointed Benj. Wright to survey the route; who, assisted by James Seymour and Chas. EUett, began the survey May 23d, and finished it the same year. In 1845 the Company was reorganized, and forty miles were put under contract. Various financial embarrassments, necessitat- ing State aid and increased private subscriptions, and involving the re- linquishment by the original stockholders of oue-half the amount of stock held by them, confronted this gigantic enterprise and retarded its accom- plishment, so that its final completion to Dunkirk was not effected until 1851. The road was opened to Binghamton Dec. 38, 1848, and to Dunkirk May 14, 1851. It enters the County at Deposit and extends through the town of Sanf ord, across the south-east corner of Windsor, when it leaves the County, passing into Pennsylvania, and enters it again on the ep,8t bank of the Susquehanna, extending along the west line of Kirkwood, through the north part of the town and city of Binghamton, and the southern part of Union, leaving the County in the south-west corner of that town. Being the first road opened through the County, it contributed largely to the latter's growth and development. * The Syracuse, Binghamton & N. Y. R. R. was originally formed July 2, 1851, as the Syracuse and Binghamton R. B. The road was opened through, Oct. 23, 1854. It was sold Oct. 13, 1856, on foreclosure of mortgage, and the name changed to Syracuse & Southern R. R. Its present name was assumed under act of March 31, 1857. In 1858 the company were authorized to purchase the Union R. R. to the canal at Geddes. The Dela- ware, Lackawanna & Western R. R. company obtained a controling Influence in the road about the first of March, 1869, and still maintain it. It is 79.33 miles in length. It enters the county on the north line of Lisle, and following the west bank of the Tioughnioga to Chenango Forks, it then follows the general course of the Chenango, making a slight detour to avoid the bend in that river between the towns of Chenango and Fenton, passing in its course through Lisle, across the south-west corner of Tri- angle, through the towns of Barker and Chenango and the north part of Binghamton to the city of Binghamton. It makes the great salt depot at Syracuse and, by its connection with Oswego & Syracuse R. R. at the last named city, the lake and lake ports easily accessible. t Hie Albany & Susquehanna R. R. was organized April 2, 1851, and opened to Harpersville, in the town of Colesville, Dec. 26, 1867, and to Binghamton, Jan. 14, 1869. With its varied connections it brings Bingham- ton within easy communication with the northern and eastern parts of the State, and the capital at Albany. Its length is 143 miles. It enters the county at Nineveh and runs in a circuitous course through Colesville, diverging slightly into the east part of Fenton a short distance, through the south part of Fenton and the north part of Binghamton, connecting with the Erie R. R. at the city of Binghamton. It is leased to and operated by the Delaware & Hudson Canal Company. BEOOliE CGUNTT. the TJtica, Chenango & Susquehanna Valley R.

The increasing agricultural and com- mercial importance of the County may warrant the opening of new avenues in those parts of the County furthest removed from any of the great thoroughfares. The several plank roads which were built at an early day are now mostly abandoned. There are ten newspapers published in the County; two dailies, one semi-weekly and seven weeklies. The BiNGHAMTOX Daily Republican was started as The Daily Iris, in 1849, by Wm. Stuart and B. T. Evans. It was soon after changed to its present name and was published by Wm. Stuart alone, until 1864, when he leased it to Messrs. Carl Bros, and J. W. Taylor for five years. They, after publishing it about three years, sold their lease to Malette & Reid, the present publishers, who bought ft of Wm. Stuart, April 1, 1867. The Beoome Republican was established at Binghamton, by Major Augustus Morgan, in 1833. It was published by him until 1824, by Morgan & Canoll until 1838, by Evans & Canoll, until 1835, by Canoll & Cooke until 1839, when it passed into * The Utica, Chenango J* Su.squehanna VfiUey R.

Taylor, who, after about three years, sold their lease to Malette & Keid, the present publishers, by whom the paper was purchased of Wm. Stuart, April 1, 1867, andby whom, in January, 1869, it was consolidated with The Binghamton Stand- ard, and printed in connection with that paper as the Republican d Standard. July 4th, 1870, the two papers were disconnected and the original title, The Broome Republican, was resumed. It is ppblished as a weekly. The Binghamtok Standabd & Semi-Weeklt Republican was started as The Binghamton Standard in Nov. 1853, by J. E. VanValkenburg, by whom it was sold to G. W. Reynolds, and by the latter to F. N. Chase. It was afterwards successively purchased by Alvin Sturtevant, M. L. Hawley & P. D. VanVra- denburg and, in Jan. 1869, by Malette & Reid, who consolidated it with The Broome Republican, and adopted a name embracing that of both papers, the Republican d Standard. July 4, 1870, it was renewed as a separate paper, under its present name.* The Binghamton' Demockat was started at Binghamton, as the Broome County Courier, in 1831, by J. E. Orton, who continued it until 1837, after which it passed successively into the hands of Sheldon & Marble, I. 0. Sheldon, E. P. Marble, E. P. & J. W. Marble, and Marble & Johnson. In 1843 or '3, its name was changed to The Binghamton Courier d Broome Co. Democrat and was published by J. & C. Orton. It passed into the hands of Dr. IST. S. Davis, in 1846, into those of J. Jj. Bur- tis in 1847, and its name was by him changed to the Bingham- ton Cowrier. Mr. Burtis sold it J. T. Brodt, who published it until 1849, when it passed into the hands of Hon. J. E. Dickin- son, who changed its name to The Binghamton Democrat and published it until 1855, when he took W. S. Lawyer as a part- ner. This firm continued its publication until 1857, when Mr. Dickinson sold his interest. It was published by Messrs. Adams & Lawyer until the death of Mr. Adame in 1861, when it was continued by Mr. Lawyer alone until 1866, at which time his brother, Q-. L Lawyer, was admitted to an interest. It is still published as a weekly by the Lawyer Bros. The Binghamton Daily Democbat was commenced in 1869, by W> 8. & G. L.

" The Asylum, which ia two miles east of the city, is built on a beantifal plateau, two hundred and forty feet above the level of the Susquehanna river, and commands pictur- esque views of,the mountains that encircle the Susquehanna and Chenango valleys. The City of Binghamton donated two hundred and fifty-two acres of the land belonging to the Asylum, to which one hundred and twenty-eight acres were subsequently addea by purchase. About $40,000 of private subscriptions having been exhausted and being found entirely inadequate to complete the buildings on the scale of their projection, the property was deeded in trust to the State of New York, in consideration of an appro- priation of ten per cent, of the excise money for the purpose of completing the Asylum. This per centage amounted to a lar^e sum, but the repeal of the law, after it had been in operation for five years, deprived this institution of this source of revenue. For the last two years the Asylum has received no aid from the State and has had to depend for its support upon the receipts of payina; patients. " The Asylum, which is built of Syracuse limestone, is of the castellated Gothic order of architecture, a very enduring, but expensive and uninviting style for the purpose for which it is built. The length ofthe front is 365 feet ; the transept is 73 feet deep, with an extension to the rear of nearly 200 feet, and the wings 51 feet in width. It is four stories in height, and besides sleeping rooms for nearly one hundred patients, it has handsomely appointed reception rooms, dining hall, club rooms, lecture room and chapel. '•The north wing was badly injured by an incendiary fire In 1864. and remains in an un- finished state, although a comparatively small appropriation by the Legislature would complete it and double the accommodation for patients. The eastern extension of the south wing, which contained the dining room, gymfiasium, bowling alleys and many needed conveniences, was burned to the ground in 1870. '" The building was opened for patients in June, 1864, since which time, with varjang fortunes, the Asylum has been in coustant operation. The total number of patients ad- mitted has been about eleven hundred. Of these 1,009 have been voluntary and 91 com- mitted patients. The average residence of patients is four months. The proportion of patients cured is about 40 per cent., judging from reliable statistics of the last two years. " The right and title of the property ia now vested in the State of New York, and it is under the same control and supervision as other State institutions. Fifteen Trustees are appointed by the Governor, and the whole management of the Asylum is placed in their hands. The board is subdivided into three committees : Executive, Financial and Management and Discipline. The officers and Trustees for 1872 are as follows : Dr. Wil- lard Parker, President ; Dr. W. C. Wey, Vice-President; Dr. Geo. Burr, 2d Vice-Presi- dent; Abel Bennett, Treasurer; Dr. D. G. Dodge, Superintendent: Carroll Hyde, Sec- retary ; Rev. S. W. Bush, Chaplain. Trustees: W. W. Gordon, W. H. Bristol, P. 3. Danforth, Austin Beardsall, P. Munday, P. G. Elsworth, A. P. Nichols, H. R. Pierson, Dr. G. A. Dayton, Dr. J. G. Orton, with the President, Vice-Presidents and Treasurer, '• The cost of board, residence and medical attendance is nominally $30 per week, but the Committee on Management and Discipline have the power to reduce this to such an amount as may reasonably come within the mea^s of the patient or his friends, — a right which they exercise with a judicious liberality as is shown by the last annual repoit, from which it appears that out of a total of 244 patients received in the Asylum in 1871, 30 per cent, paid at the rate of $20 per week ; 25 per cent, at the rate of $15 per week ; 25 per cent, at from $5 to $10 per week, and 20 per cent, were free patients— or, on the ♦See foot note on following page.

Notwith- standing this large proportion of free patients, however, by judicious management and careful economy, the financial statement showed a balance of $2,039.02 in favor of the Asylum, after all expenses, salaries &c., were paid. ** The mode of obtaining admission is by personal application, or letter, setting forth the condition of the patient and the pecuniary ability of himself or his friends. This application should be addressed to Dr. D. G. Dodge, Supt. of the Asylum, Blnghamton, *'The people of Blnghamton are justly proud of the Inebriate A8ylum,which Is not only the most Important public institution in Broome County, and has been of incalculable benefit to humanitv, but It is also the exemplar and inspiration of many other Institution^, existing or yet to oe established In various parts of the world for the treatment of Ine- briation as a disease." ++The Susquehanna Valley Home, located near the west line o( the city, was incorporated March 15, 1869. " The design of the institution is to furnish a suitable home for indigent orphan children and such others as the Board of Managers may consider worthy of admission, affording them facilities for acquiring an elementary education and habits of indus- try and economy, and finally to provide them with permanent homes in families of benevolence and christian principles." From the report of the Board of Managers for the fiscal year ending Sept. 30, 1871, it appears that 128 orphans and destitute children were received, supported and instruct- ed during the fiscal year, thirty of whom were from the Broome County poor house ; and that the average expense per week for support, main- tenance and education, independent of all contributions of clothing, pro- visions, &c., was $3.38. * Of these 10,350 were native and 2,342 foreign ; 12,382, white, and 310, colored.

Its capital is $50,000. The ofiBcera are : Chas. Mc Kinney, president; C. B. Johnson, superintendent. i The SolUy Water Worhs of Blnghamton, located in the east part of the city, on the north bank of the Susquehanna, were established by special act of the Legislature in 1868. They are owned by the city and controlled by a board of five commissioners, who elect their own officers, and are elected at special elections for a term of five years. The first five com- missioners were appointed by the Governor, and were as follows : Wm. P. Pope, Frederick Lewis, Jno. S. Wells, Sabin McKinney and Wm. E. Taylor. Wm. P. Pope was elected president, and Frederick Lewis, treas- urer. One commissioner is retired from the board each year, by a vote of the commissioners themselves, and vacancies thus caused are filled by election. Three, viz : Jno. S. Wells, Wm. E. Taylor and Frederick Lewis, have been thus retired and elected to the offices to which they were as- signed by the Governor. The building is built substantially and tastily of brick, the main part being 40 by 60feet on the ground, and the boiler room, 40 by 24 feet. The main part is two stories high. The wells are two in number and each is 20 feet deep and 24 in diameter. The water is of a very pure quality and is forced into the pipes by a double engine of 150 horse power, and a pressure of thirty jjounds to the inch constantly main- tained. Nineteen miles of pipe are laid, by which about seven-eighths of the populated cit;r is supplied with water. Elxtensions are constantly being made as the requirements of the city demand. Three miles of pipes are to be laid the present summer (1872.) $205,000 have been appropriated by the 88 BIKGBJJfTOJl^. j citT separated by the Chenango are connected by two bridges ; i the Susquehanna is crossed by the same number within the i city limits. There are many magnificent business blocks and a few private residences already constructed and many others are in process of erection or contemplated. Few cities of its , size, or eren older and larger ones, possess so many elegant j buildings. The disposition to construct ornate and elaborate i dwellings and buildings seems, from the following extract from j the Aiuiah of Binghamton, to have been acquired, or rather, per- haps, found opportunity to manifest itself, within the la^t thirty years. We quote": '■* * * the buildings * » • axe neat, convenient, and appear well from the street. There are but few poor houses, remarkable few for the size of the place. Again, it should be remarked, there are but few large and splendid dwellings, or edifices of any kind. A medium appears to have been studied, and much convenience rather than much ornament." This, it should be remembered, is the description of the citv as it appeared in 1840. It is yet an open question as to whether Binghamton possesses the requisites for making it a great and popular watering place. Certainly the existence of mineral springs in its vicinity is the only thing it apparently lacks to constitute ir such. But no little excitement was recently created by the discovery of a " saline-cha.lybeate" spring on land near the foot of Mount Pros- pect, owned by Lewis West. Cautious capital, however, and a magnified estimate of the value of the properties of the sprino-, have thus far prevented its development. Current reports as- cribe to it most unusual and valuable qualities, which, if it possesses, mast ultimately prove it to be the great desideratum of Binghamton. It is claimed to be the only spring of its kind known to exist in the United States, and" to resemble verv closely the one at Cheltenham, England, which is highlv im- pregnated with salt and iron.* An'other spring possessing" sim- ilar qualities was subsequently found ou the property of Thomas A. Sedgwick, adjacent to the former, and the opinion city, and SISO.OOO of that sum have been expended. The remauider will probably be expended during the summer. Over 2,000 water permits are granted, including railroads and manufacturing establishments, from which the receipts are about ?16.000 per annum, or from ?3,000 to H.000 in excess of the expenses. The officers consist of fire commissioners, a su- perintendent and clerk. Three engineers, who are on dutv eieht hours each, and two firemen, who are ou duty twelve hours each, are einploved The quantity of water supplied is ample for fire purposes. The service* of the fire engines, in case of fire, are generally unnecessarv. "Water can be thrown 1:25 feet high from each of six hydrants at the same time and this pressure maintained. Six streams can with ease bp brought to bear upon any fire in the thickly settled part of the citv. The protection afforded by the water works has reduced the insurance rates 33 per cent. * Below we give the result of an analysis of the water from the spring by BINOBAMTON. 89 is expressed that an indefinite number may be obtained by dig- ging to the level of the source from whence these proceed. The Binghamton Normal Music School was established in this city in the summer of 1871, having began its existence in Flor- ida, Orange county, N. Y., as an experiment the previous sum- mer. Its object is, as its name implies, to perfect teachers in this ennobling accomplishment and fit them to impart instruc- tion to others. Although of recent origin the institution has already acquired an enviable reputation. The Binghamton Fire Department consists of the following named companies : Excelsior Hook & Ladder Co. No. 1, H. E. Allen, Foreman. Crystal Hose Co. No. 1, A. W. Lockwood, Alert Hose Co. No. 2, A. E. Green, Protection Hose Co. No. 3, Daniel Emery, Fountain Hose Co. No. i Jas. Lyon, Acting Independent' Hose Co. No. 5, Eobt. Orozier, Mechanics Hose Co. No. 6 Darrow, One steamer and two first-class hand-engines are connected with the department. An engineer and fireman are employed and paid by the city. The engines are seldom called into requi- sition, but are always kept in readiness for use in case of an emergency. Reliance is placed principally upon the city water works. No serious fire has occurred since their advent. The companies include 300 active members. The Exempt Fire Association is composed of firemen who have served their time and who band together for mutual protection and benefit. They are not controlled by the chief, but in exi- gent cases volunteer their services. W. Stratford, M. D., Professor of Chemistry in the College of the city of New York.

In his letter accompanying the report of the analysis. Prof. Stratford says: " The very large amount of organic matter is unusual and must, I think, have gained access either from leakage of some of the barrels in the vault, from substances left in the jug, or, and it is scarcely possible, from the shale rock itself. However this may be, the chalybeate properties of the water render it very valuable for medicinal puTyoses." The spring, it is proper to state, was discovered in an excavation made in the side of the hill for a beer vault. The water, it appears, was used in the manufac- ture of beer, and the peculiar taste it imparted to the latter first led to an examination of its properties. • 90 BINOBJLldTON. The FiremerCs Hall is a fine structure, situated on Collier street, and was finished in 1858, at an expense of about 110,000. Besides an ample depository for the appliances of the fire com- panies, it supplies a very convenient audience chamber for public meetings, lectures, concerts, and the like.* Although there are, as yet, no street railroads in operation in Binghamton, projects for the construction of two at least have been and are still in contemplation.! The immediate com- mencement of work on the Washington, and State Asylum Street E. E. is contemplated. The Binghamton Driving Farh Association, "for the improve- ment of horses and to encourage the breeding of horses," was incorporated by an act passed April 23, 1870. Henry S. Jarvis, John S. Wells, John Eankin, Daniel S. Eichards and Wm. E. Taylor were the first directors. Binghamton was the home of the late distinguished and talented Hon. Daniel S. Dickinson, a son of whom she may well feel proud, whose remains repose in the beautiful Spring Forest Cemetery.

The route is thus described in the act : "commeuoing at the town line between the towns of Kirkwood and Binghamton, on the north bank of the Susquehanna, near the New York and Brie railroad, in the public highway, and running westerly along said highway, to the cor- poration line of the city of Bingliamton ; thence along and through Court street to Main street ; thence through and along Main street to the west- erly bound of said city ; thence along the public highway to the town line of the town of Uniou, with a branch connecting with said road in Court street at Chenango street, and running thence through and along Chenango street to the northerly bounds of said city, and thence along the public highway leading north up to the Chenango river to Port Dickinson to- gether with all the necessary connections, turnouts and switches for the pro- per working and accommodation of the tracks on the said route orroutes." The act provided that the building of the road should be commenced with- in one year from the date of its passage, and finished within five years from the date of its commencement. An act was passed April 30, 1869, allowing two additional years in which to commence the building of the road. t Daniel 8. Dickinson was born in Goshen,' Litchfield Co., Conn., Sept. 11, 1800; he removed with his father to Chenango Co., N. Y., in 1806; received a common school education ; and in 18^1 he entered upon the duties of a school teacher, and, without the aid of an insructor, mastered the Latin language, and became versed in the higher branches of mathe- matics and other sciences. He studied law, came to the bar in 1830, and settled in Binghamton, where he long practiced his prof ession with success. In 1836 he was elected to the State Senate, serving from 1887 to 1840 ; was Judge of the Court of Errors from 1836 to 1841 ; from 1842 to 1844 he was President of said Court, Lieutenant Governor, and also President of the Senate ; was a Regent of the University of New York in 1843 ; was a mem- ,ber of the Convention which nominated James K. Polk for President, and a Presidential Elector in 1844 ; and he was a Senator in Congress from BINOBAMTON. 91 It is also the home of Prof. Royal E. Hou^, the inventor of House's system of telegraphy.* HAWLEYTOif (p. o.) is a hamlet in the south-west part of the town, on Little bnake Creek. It contains one church, (M. E.) two hotels, two blacksmith shops and one wagon shop. Near it are two saw mills which saw nearly two millions of feet of lumber annually. Port DiCKiKSOif (p. o.) is located in the north-east part, three miles north of Biughamton. It lies upon the east bank of the Chenango, and on the Chenango Canal. It contains a store, hotel, whip factory, cotton batting factory, broom factory and about fifty families. The Delaware, Lackawanna & West- ern Coal Co. have a depot at this place for the transhipment of coal.f Previous to the Eevolution the country included within the limits of the town of Biughamton is not known to have been trod by the feet of white men, except, perhaps, as prisoners of the Indians, who held undisputed sway of all this region of country, which seems to have been a favorite haunt of theirs. The placid waters of the Susquehanna have carried many a band of warriors on missions of death and rapine to the ex- posed frontier settlements of the whites. But such pictures are most unhappy retrospects when contrasted with the more pacific ones to which they have given place ; hence we leave the Indian in the grandeur of his wildness and barbarity for the more pleasing contemplation of the almost magical transforma- tions which the banks of this beautiful stream have witnessed under the genius of civilization and progress.

He died suddenly in that city, April 12, 1866. Before accepting his last public position he declined several appointments ten- dered him by the President of the United States and the Governor of New York.

Joseph Carman, who built these mUls and owned them about ten years, moved to the site of Port Dickinson when nine years old.

They were soldiers belonging to a detachment of the American army un- der the command of General James Clinton, on their way to join another large division of that army, destined against the Indians of this State, under the command of General John Sul- livan. They encamped one or two nights upon the site of Binghamton city, where were several Indian wigwams, but no Indians to be seen. Corn, which was growing upon the island, was destroyed. It is quite probable that these troops destroyed an Indian village opposite the site of Port Dickinson, as ves- tiges of a recent village at that place were visible to the first white settlers. Eight years later, in 1787, Capt. Joseph Leonard, who is believed to have been the first white man to make a permanent settlement in the town, came, with a young wife and two little children, and located on the Chenango, in the vicinity of Port Dickinson. His wife and children were put into a canoe with the goods they brought, and rowed by a hired man ; while he came up by land with two horses, keeping the shore and regu- lating his progress by that of his family. Leonard was origin- ally from Plymouth, Mass., but immediately from Wyoming, Penn., where he owned a farm and lived several years. He was there underarms at the time of the great massacre, though not in the field of action. At the time of the great ice freshet in the Susquehanna, his dwelling, with many others, was carried away by it. This calamity, together with the disputes which existed relative to land titles, induced him to leave and seek more peaceable and secure possessions. He received in- formation from Amos Draper, an Indian trader in this locality, which led him to select this as his home. Two or three weeks subsequent to his arrival came Col. Wm. Eose and his brother, Solomon, the latter of whom settled in Lisle. Col. Eose located a little higher up the river than Capt. Leonard. " It was," says Wilkinson, in the Annah of Binghamton, "but a short time after the arrival of the latter, that he, with Amos Draper, invited the Indians of the neighborhood to meet in council, and leased of them, for the term of ninety-nine years, one mile square ; for which they were to give a barrel of corn per year. This lease, however, was invalidated by an act of the Legislature having been previously passed, and without the knowledge of these men, 'that no lands should be leased or purchased of the Indians by private individuals.' But before it was known [by them] that such a law existed. Col. Eose and his brother purchased Mr. Draper's interest in the lease. It embraced where the three had located." Col. Eose and his brother came from Connecticut on foot to Wattle's Ferry, BINOHAMTON. 93 where they procured a canoe and brought with them stores to this place. Parties of Indians on the shore, sitting by their fires, engaged in their festivities, or skirting the mountains in pursuit of deer, were often seen by them, but never offered to molest them. They designed pushing on to the country bordering on the Conhocton and settling there ; but learning at Union, from a Mr. Gallop, a temporary settler at that place, that the country they were seeking was in dispute, that they could obtain no satisfactory title to their land and that they would be obliged to fight for their crops, they turned back to the mouth of the Chenango, whose broad stream and pleasant banks impressed them favorably as they passed down, and sought the home before indicated. Soon after, during the same year, came Joshua and Wm. Whitney and Henry Green, from Hillsdale, Columbia county, and settled on the west side of the Chenango, about two miles above its junction with the Susquehanna, on what was afterwards called Whitney's Flats. In this town and in the vicinity of Port Dickinson, it is probable, was held the first council between the commissioners representing the proprietors of the Boston Ten-Townships and the Indians.* Among the settlers who came the same year, 1787, were Lyon, who lived, previous to Leonard's advent into the town, in a temporary log house, near the site of Col. Page's ashery; and",who afterwards kept for several years the ferry across the Chenango ; Jesse Thayer, who settled where Christopher Eldredge afterwards lived; Peter and Thomas Ingersoll, who settled where James Hawley afterwards lived ; Samuel Harding who settled on the Bevier place, on the east side of the phenango; Capt. John Sawtell, who settled opposite the Poor House; Butler, who settled on the river bank, a little below Captain Leonard, and Solomon Moore, who settled on the site of the city of Bingham- ton. The next year about twenty families augmented the little settlement in this region and received from those who preceded them, in accordance with the urgency of their needs, the gen- erous hospitality for which the early settlers distinguished themselves — a hospitality which meant, says Wilkinson, the im- partial division among the needy settlers of such stores as the more prosperous had been able to accumulate, and which sorely taxed them at times to relieve the wants of new comers until they could create resources of their own. But this hospitality proved equal to the severest trial. The first roads were con- structed by following the Indian paths when practicable and cutting away on either side the fallen logs, underbrush and sap. * See page 73. 94 BINOHAMTON. lings until a a sufficient clearing was made to admit the passage of wagons. A circuit was made to avoid large trees when such interposed. Roads of this description were, in a few years, built on both sides of the Chenango, generally where they now run, and on the north side of the Susquehanna, both above and below the settlements on it. A sleigh road was opened to Una- dilla in 1788. The early settlers had little occasion, however, to leave home, except to take their grain to mill, which was done by means of canoes on the river. The nearest mill was at " Shepherd's Mill," three miles north of Tioga Point, (now Athens, Penn.,) a distance of forty miles. The journey occu- pied a week, and sometimes a fortnight. "A considerable por- tion of their corn, however, was pounded, and thus converted into samp, by the simple machinery of a stump hollowed out for a mortar, and a pestle suspended by a sweep." The Indians raised corn and potatoes, and from them the seed was procured ; but the other seed and the flour, what little was had, was brought from the Hudson, or up the Susquehanna in canoes from Wyoming. In. 1790 their condition as regards milling facilities was ameliorated by the erection of a grist mill on Pitch's Creek, in the town of Kirkwood. John Miller, Moore and Luce moved with their families, from New Jersey to Wyoming, but owing to the unsettled condition of things in that country they remaind there but a short time and came to this town the first or second season of its settlement and located on the east side of the Chenango. Mr. Miller, it appears, was the first magistrate, he having acted in that capacity in New Jer- sey. He also first conducted religious exercises, before any regular minister visited the new settlement. He was a Presbyterian, and reported to be an eminently pious man. Meetings were held uniformly at the house of Samuel Harding, and he and his daughters walked a distance of four miles to attend them. Rev. Mr. Howe, a Baptist minister, who came in the summer of 1790, officiated in his ministerial capacity and succeeded in forming a church, consisting of ten or twelve persons, which was the first Christian society in this region, but which, after the removal of Mr. Howe, dwindled and became extinct about 1800. A considerable accession was made in the summer of 1789, by persons who settled in the valleys of the Chenango and Susquehanna. Among these was Daniel Hudson, who settled between Capt. Leonards' and Col. Rose's. The house erected on the site of Binghamton, by Solomon Moore, to whom allusion has before been made, was Soon abandoned by him after he learned that he could not purchase the land, and in consequence soon dilapidated and disappeared. Thomas Chambers erected and lived in a log house on the site of the city. Other settle- BINGHAMTON. 95 nients were made here and a post office established June 23, 1798, with Joshua Whitney as post master. Up to the begin- ning of the present century, however, little disposition to occupy the site of the city was manifested, the attention of early settlers being diverted to Chenango village, a prosperous settle- ment at that time on the west side of the Chenango, about one mile above Binghamton, and just above the point of Mount Prospect which projects toward and near the river, which boasted of a hotel, a newspaper office, (the Constellation, pub- lished by Daniel Cruger, to which allusion is made in the his- tory of the press,) a store, a distillery and a doctor's office. In 1800, Joshua Whitney became the agent of Mr. Bingham for the disposal of the latter's lands in this vicinity, and as the whole of the site of the village just alluded to was not embraced in Mr. Bingham's patent, and it had neither the advantage of as eligible a location, nor possessed a sufficiently extensive area for the growth of a village such as might be built up at the junc- tion of the two rivers, Mr. Whitney conceived the idea of divert- ing attention to the latter place and removing the village there. As a means to this end he took advantage of reports which were circulated to the effect that Lucas Elmendorf of Kingston, Ulster Co., was about to build a bridge across the Chenango on the line of the great western highway which passed through the site of Binghamton, and represented that it must determine the prosperity of settlers in its locality and cause a correspond- ing decline in the growth of the upper village. He accord- ingly, in company with several others, who came by appoint- ment, commenced a clearing on both sides of the river at the point, where he represented the bridge was to be located. The ground was surveyed and laid out into streets and lots in vil- lage form, the same year. The lots contained three-fourths of an acre and were sold generally for twenty dollars each ; the corner lots were held at a higher price. To render the success of his plan more certain, Gen. Whitney purchased a number of buildings in the old village and moved them down to the new one. By this means the nucleus .of a village was formed and its prosperity assured. New accessions were rapidly made for a few years and the village soon began to assume size and importance, but the bridge was not built until 1808. It was built by Marshal Lewis and Luther Thurstin, at an expense of $6,000, and was due to the enterprise, perseverance and pecuniary resources of Lucas Elmendorf.* It contributed * The bridge was rebuilt in 1825, by Col. H. Lewis, as master builder, un- der the direction of Joshua Whitney, at a cost of over $3,000. On each side of the river, at the ends of this bridge, stood a fine elm tree, and the two were long known as the "twin elms." That on the west side is stUl BIN9HAUT0N. largely to the growth of the village by removing the barrier to highway travel, presented by the Chenango, which had to be crossed at this point. From that time to the present the growth of Binghamton has been gradual but constant. It has suffered neither serious reverse, nor an abnormal inflation. The only important exception, perhaps, to the last part of the pre- vious assertion was manifested by the temporary instability oc- casioned by the completion or location of the Erie E. R. through the village. That fluctuating tendency, however, gradually subsided into a steady and healthy growth. The ad- vantages which the location of the city presents, if judiciously and liberally seconded or made available by its capitalists, by fostering existing manufacturing enterprises and encouraging new ones, must eventually make Binghamton an important com- mercial and manufacturing center.* We purpose now to give a brief history of such of the churches of the town as have given us the necessary informa- tion. The first church organized in the town was, as before stated, done through the exertions of Elder Howe, in 1790, or soon thereafter. The Dutch Reformed Church, the second one established, was organized in 1798, by Rev. Mr. Manly, a minis- ter of that persuasion. Meetings were held by the latter society in the chamber of a dwelling house, located about a mile above the village, on the east bank of the Chenango, which was fitted with conveniences for that purpose. Mr. Manly preached al- ternately at this place and Union, but remained here only a few years. After an interval, during which the society had no min- ister, the services of Rev. Mr. Palmer were secured, and under his pastoral labors the church was revived and its number aug- mented. This society, differing so little in the substance of its belief from the faith of the Presbyterians was merged into the latter society, which organized after the establishment of the village. Christ Church, (Episcopal) located at Binghamton, was err ganized Sept. 19, 1810, by Rev. Daniel Nash, under the title of St. Ami's Church. It was dissolved, and reorganized six years later, by Hon. Tracy Robinson. The first edifice was conse- crated Nov. 20, 1818, by Bishop Hobart, and named Christ standing. The one on the east side fell into the river through the con- tinual wearing away ol the bank during a period of fifty years. * To those who desire a more minute portraiture of the early history of Binghamton, and in fact of the country within a circuit of thirty to fifty miles from it, we would commend them to the Annals of Bin0iamton, a work from which we have made liberal extracts, and in which the early settlements are detailed with greater particularity than is consistent with the scope of this work.

Windsor was taken ofi" March 27, 1807 ; Conklin, March 39, 1824; and Binghamton and Fenton, Dec. 3, 1855. A part of Union was annexed Feb. 26, 1808, and a part of Maine, Nov. 27, 1856. It lies west of the center of the County, its eastern boundary being formed by the Chenango River. Its surface consists of the river intervale, and several ridges which rise to an altitude of from 300 to 600 feet and are separated by the narrow valleys of the streams running parallel with them, north and south, through the town. The principal streams are Castlef and KattelJ creeks, which are tributary to Chenango River, and Gilbert Creek, which empties its waters into Kattel Creek. On the north hills the soil consists of a gravelly loam mixed with disintegrated slate and underlaid by hard pan, bnt further south it becomes a deeper and richer gravelly loam. It is productive, but moist, and for this reason is devoted principally to grazing. Stock raising and dairying form the chief agricultural pursuits. The town covers an area of 21,154 acres, of which, in 1865, according fo the census of that year, 14,262 were improved. In 1870 the population of the town was 1,680. During the year ending Sept. 30, 1871, there were fourteen school districts, and the same number of teachers employed. The number of * " Upon the map of 1771 this la given Ol-sUnln-goo.

The Syracuse & Binghamton R. E, enters the town in the north-east corner and follows the course of the Chenango River until it reaches near the center ot the east border, when it di- verges and crosses the point formed by the bend in the river and leaves the town on the south border, a little east of the mouth of Kattel creek. The Utici & Chenango Valley R, R. just enters the town in the north-east corner. Both these roads are leased and operated by tht D. L. & W. R. R. Co.

XiiiMONSBUEGf is a hamlet in the south part, lying in the valley of the Chenango, three and a-half miles north of Bing- hamton. The first settler was Thomas Gallop, who, as previously stated,]: located at Chenango Forks, in 1T87. He is believed to have remained there but a short time. Among the other early settlers were Col. Wm. Rose and John Nimmons, who located in the south part Col. Rose settled on the farm now owned and occupied by Wm. R. Nimmons. Jedediah Seward, Wm. Hall, John Jewell, Stephen and Henry Palmer, Josiah Whitney, Jared Page, Xathaniel Bishop, James Temple and Foster Lilly were early settlers. Settlements appear to have been made rap- idly and to have assumed some importance, for in 1788, a saw mill, which was owned by Henry French, was built at Glen * For further mention of this rillage see town of Barker, p. 80. + Named in honor of Burwell Ximmons, who is 83 years old, and is one of the oldest inhabitants in town. i See page 80. CEJBNANOO. 101 jCastle. It was the first erected ia the county. The Indians from whom the Boston Company purchased their lands, reserved a tract of one-half mile square, which was situated near the mouth of Castle Creek and was known as the " Castle Farm." " Upon this reserve the Indians of the neighborhood who did not retoove to ISTew Stockbridge, or Oneida, resided." Their number " is said to have been about twenty families." They cultivated the farm to some extent, but depended chiefly upon hunting and fishing. Wilkinson in speaking of them says : . " [They] kept up their peculiar mode of dress so long as they remained upon their farm;, clothing themselves with their shirt and moccasins, their head hare, except sometimes ornamenting it with feathers, and wear- ing jewels of silver in their nose and ears. Their wigwams were built of logs, locked together at the ends, and sloping up on two sides from the ground to a peak, like the roof of a house. " Another form of their wigwams was, to erect four stakes, or crotches, two longer and two shorter; upon these to lay two poles, one upon the longer and one upon the shorter crotches. Upon these poles they would lay sticks or smaller poles and then barks, with sufficient ingenuity to exclude the rain and weather. From the lower crotches to the ground they would tie barks, answering to our weather boarding. They would close up the two ends in the same manner. Upon the front side were sus- pended skins of deer sewed together, from the pole upon the high crotches to the ground, and which they could raise or fall at pleasure. Before this their fire was kindled, and the curtain of skins raised by day time, and more or less lowered by night, as the weather might be. In some cases they would have their wigwams lined with deer skins. Seldom any floor bat the ground. Their bed consisted of straw, or skins thi-own down. When they sat down, it was always upon the ground. In eating they sat generally without any order, as they happened to be, upon the ground, with each his piece in his hand. Their adroitness in spearing fish was ad- mired by the whites, in which they displayed as much markmansliip as they do with the bow and arrow. They would thrmo the spear at the fish which very seldom failed of transfixing its object, though the distance to which it was thrown should be twenty or thirty feet, the fish moving rap- idly at the same time, and the water running swift. " Their chief was called Squire Antonio. This title was given him by the whites on account of Ms just decisions, his connect judgement, and his sober habits. He was very much esteemed by the white people, as well as revered and loved by his own. He undoubtedly contributed very ma- terially towards maintaining that peaceful and friendly, or at least order- ly, conduct which the Indians have the good name of having observed to- wards the whites." But notwithstanding the amicable relations which subsisted between the whites and Indians, and the nominal price at which the latter were induced to sell their vast possessions, there was, in the neighborhood, a person named Patterson, who was suflB- ciently base, either through his own designs, or as the tool of others, to rob them of the small portion reserved for their own uses, by an appeal to the cupidity of the chiefs son, Abruham Antonio. 103 .CEENANOO. "About 1792 or '3," says Wilkinson, "he went to the Indians at the Castle, and made himself very familiar ajnd sociable with them. He brought with him a silver mounted rifle, which he knew would gain their admiration and excite their cupidity. Abraham Antonio was smitten with a desire for it. He endeavored to purchase it, making such offers as he could afford. But Patterson put him off, telling him he did not wish to sell it ; or setting such a price upon it as he knew was bajfond the power of Abraham immediately to command. After he had sufficiently prepared the way for himself, he proposed to the young chief, that if he would engage to give him so many bear skins he would let him have the rifle. This the prince complied with. A note was required on the part of Patterson, with the son and father's name subscribed, that the skins should be delivered against a specified time. Abraham hesitated as to such a course, as he did not understand such a mode of business. He therefore asked his father as to the propriety, who told his son it was a common mode of doing business with the whites. Patterson then profes- sedly wrote a note, specifying the number of skins, and read it off to the father and son accordingly, who both signed their names. But instead of writing a note, he wrote a deed for the Castle farm." For this act of perfidy, however, Patterson is believed to have forfeited his life and that of his family at the hands of Abra- ham, who either followed him for the purpose to Ohio, whither he moved, or accidentally met him there and summarily re- venged the treachery of which he was made the victim. With the loss of the Castle farm, the Indians appear to have gradu- ally withdrawn from this section, leaving their favorite hunting grounds in undisputed possession of the whites. Nothing of marked prominence appears in the history of the town until the breaking out of the Eebellion, from which it suifered in common with other sections of the country. It contributed seventy-one soldiers as its share in the establish- ment of the supremacy of the Union. The First M. E. Society, at Chenango Forks, was organized in 1833. Their house of worship will seat 250 persons. It was erected in 1863, at a cost of $2,500, which is the present value of Church property. There are sixty-eight members. The present pastor is Eev. C.

COLESVILLE* was formed from Windsor, April 2, 1831. f It lies upon the north border, east of the center of the County. Its surface is broken by an elevated ridge whose sum- mits rise from 400 to 700 feet above the valley of the Susque- hanna, by which it is cut in two. The Susquehanna and seve- ral small streams tributary to it are the only water-courses. The soil upon the river bottom is a deep, fertile, gravelly loam, while upon the summits of the hills it consists of .clay and slate. It is generally much better adapted to pasturage than tillage. The town is traversed by the Albany & Susquehanna and the Delaware & Hudson Canal Co.'s railroads, both of which enter the town on the north line, at Nineveh, and pur- sue a circuitous course, the former in a general south-west di- rection and the latter along the valley of the Susquehanna. It covers an area of 47,283t acres, of which, in 1865, according to the census of that year, 29,696i, were improved. The popu- lation in 1870 was 3,400. During the year ending Sept. 30, 1871, it contained thirty school districts and employed twenty- nine teachers. The number of children of school age was 1,218 ; the number attending school, 1,011 ; the average attendance, 472 ; the amount expended for school purposes, $6,948 ; and '^he value of school houses and sites, $9,090.

The First Baptist Church of Colesville, located at Harpersville, was organized with seven members* in 1811, but their house of worship, which will seat 250 persons, was not erected until 1846. Its cost was $1,600. Elder Levi Holcomb was the first pastor ; Rev. T. D. Hammond is the present one. The church property is valued at $3,500. There are 105 members. The First Methodist Church, of New Ohio, was organized by "Billy "Way," in 1825, with eight members, and the Church edifice, which will seat 250 persons, was erected in 1844, at a cost of $800. The first pastor was Rev. Morgan Ruger ; the present one is Rev. Chas. Shepard. There are twenty-five members. The church property is valued at $1,500* The Presbyterian Church of Nineveh was organized with thirty-five members, by Rev. Mr. Pratt, in 1831. The first Church edifice was erected in 1829 ; and the present one, which will seat 375 persons, and on which, in 1870, $4,000 was expended in enlargement and repairs, twenty years later, at a cost of $2,000. The first pastor was Rev. Willard M. Hoyt ; the present one is Rev. Wm. H. Sawtelle. There are 180 members. The Church property is valued at $8,000. The Baptist Church, at West Colesville, was organized with seven members, in 1846, and their Church edifice, which will seat 150 persons, was erected the following year, at a cost of $600. The present value of church property is $1,000. The first pastor was Elder A. B. Earle ; the present one is Rev. Har- vey Cornell. It has forty-one members. The Ouaquaga M. JS. Church was organized with forty-six members, by Dewitt C. Olmstead, in 1867, and their house of worship, which will seat 300 persons, was erected in 1868, at a cost of $3,000, which is the present value of Church property. Rev. Wm. Round was the first pastor; the present one is Rev. Wm. W. Andrews. There are fifty-two members. The Colesville Free Church, located at Cole's Hill, is composed of twenty members, and is ministered to by Rev. Charles D. Shepard. Their house of worshipf will seat 125 persons. The Church property is valued at $1,000. *The names of the original members are : Nathaniel J. Grilbert, Stephen and Polly Barker, SUas Moon, Silas Hall, Peter Newton and Lucinda Denny. + The house was built by the Presbyterians who occupied it several years. It was subseciuently used by the Baptists for a terra of years | but becoming dilapidated it remained for some time unoccupied. In 1853 it was repaired by the Methodists, who have since occupied it. COSKlrlN. 107 CONKLIW* was formed from Chenango, March 29,1824. A part of Windsor was taken off in 1831, and a part of that town was annexed in 1851. Kirkwood was erected from it Nov. 23, 1859. It is one of the southern tier of towns and lies west of the center of the County. Its eastern boundary is formed by the Susquehanna. The surface is generally hilly. The summits of the hills rise from 400 to 600 feet above the valley. Their declivities terminate abruptly on the river. It is watered by several small streams, tributary to the Susquehanna, the principal of which are Big and Little Snake creeks. The former flows through the town in an easterly direction, a little south of the center, and its valley is narrow and bordered by steep hills; while only a small portion of the latter flows (north) through the south-east corner. The soil upon the sum- mits of the hills is a hard clayey and gravelly loam, largely in- termixed with fragments of slate. The Delaware, Lackawanna and Western R. E. enters the town in the north-west corner, and following the course of the Susquehanna, leaves it in the south-east corner. The town is the smallest in the County. It covers an area of 14,858 acres, of which, in 1865, according to the census of that year, 10,022 were improved. Its population in 1870 was 1,440. During the year ending Sept. 30, 1871, it contained eight school districts and employed eight teachers. The number of children of school age was 571 ; the number attending school, 448; the average attendance, 207 ; the amount expended for school purposes, $2,534; and the value of school houses and sites, $7,670. CoEBETTSViLLE, (p. v.) located in the south-east part, near the line of the D. L. & W. R. E., and the Susquehanna Eiver, contains two stores, two tanneries,! two saw mills,I two black- smith shops, one wagon shop, about twenty-five dwellings and 150 inhabitants. It is surrounded by hills, nearly all of which are covered with forests. CouK^iN Station, (p. v.) (formerly known as Milbum,) lo- cated near the Susquehanna and on the D. L. & W. E. R., con- tains one church, (Presbyterian) a school house, a store, a * Named from Judge John Conklin, one of the early settlers. + The tannery of which Messrs. Parks & Porter are props, and which is located here, is the principal one in the town. It contains sixty-six vats, employs ten persons, consumes one thousand cords of hemlock, and one hundred cords of oak bark, and manufactures from 10,000 to 12,000 sides of " Union Sole Leather " annually. t3. S. Corbett's saw miU, located here, employs from two to six persons and manufactures about 340,000 feet of lumber annually. 108 CONELIN. wagon shop, a blacksmith shop, the extensive pyroligneous acid works* of A. S. Saxon, thirty-five dwellings and about 140 inhabitants. CoNKLiN' Center (p. o.) is located about the center of the east border. There are several other mechanical and industrial institutions in parts of the town which are removed from the business cen- ters, f The first settlements were made in 1788, by Jonathan Ben- nett, Ealph Lathrop;]: and Waples Hance,J who located at the mouth of Snake Creek. These were followed at ah early day by Garret Snedaker, David Bound,§ Daniel Chapman, Peter * These are the oldest works of the kind In the U. S. They were first started by Turnbull & Co. of Scotland, about 1851. They give employ- ment to ten persons, and annually consume from 1,500 to 3,000 cords of hard wood in the manufacture of acetate lime, sugar lead, red and iron liquor, wood naphtha, charcoal, charcoal facings, &c. + Among these are : Ira Corbett's steam saw mill, which is located near the line of the D. L. & W. R. R., about one-half mile south of Oonklin Station, and which employs about six men, contains one circular saw and manufactures from 600,000 to 800,000 feet of lumber annually ; the Conklin Orist Mill, (the only one in town) owned by Levi L. Roe, and located about one and one-fourth miles " below " Conklin Station, which contains three runs of stones for grinding flour, feed and meal ; John Jageler's saw mill, (known as "old Major Shaw's Mill,") which is located on the Sus- quehanna, about two miles from the nortli line of the town, and which an- nually saws about 100,000 feet of lumber, principally hemlock and pine ; the saw mills of Richard Van Patten and Atwood Vining, both of which are situated on Little Snake Creek, (the latter two and one-half miles from Conklin Station,) and saw about 100,000 feet of lumber per annum, and the latter in addition thereto from 50,000 to 100,000 feet of lath; and Emory Blatchley's grist and saw mill, which is also located on Little Snake Creek and contains two runs of stones. t Wilkinson, in the "Annals of Binghamton," &c., page 134, Igives the names of "Ralph Lotrip " and "Waples Hanth;" while French, who also consulted the " Annals of Binghamton," in his Gazetteer of the State of New York, on page 182, speUs the names as they are given above. § David Bound from New Jersey settled near the mouth of Snake Creek in 1795. About a year later he was joined by his family, who came with a four horse team, and occupied seventeen days in the journey. Before reaching their destination their provisions were exhausted. Mr. Bound learned the fact and went to their relief, carrying the provisions nine miles upon his back. Soon after this, while hunting one day, Mr. Bound discovered that the water in the creek was rising rapidly, in consequence of the melting snow. He hastened home, drove his cattle on a hill and surrounded them with a brush fence to prevent them from straying. When he returned the water was running into his pig pen. He placed a plank in such a position that the pig was able to walk up it and over the top of the pen, when it was also driven up the hill. When he returned to the house the water had entered it and put out the flre. His family had retreated to the chamber, where they had built a fire in a tin pan, and had commenced the removal of their effects. With the assistance of a Mr. Hance, Mr. Bound built a raft and crossing the stream, procured a large canoe, with which he rescued his family whom he took from the chamber window, and escaped to the hill, where he took refuge in the house of a Mr. Corbett, and where he was obliged to remain about a week until the water subsided sufficiently to admit of his return. CONKLIN. 109 "Wentz, Asa Eood, Nathaniel Tagot, Asa Squires, John Bell, Silas Bowker, Joel Lamereaux, Abraham Sneden, David and Joseph Compton, Abraham Miller, Ebenezer Park, Noel Carr, and Thos. Cooper, The latter were followed at a later date by David Bayless, who came from Princeton, N. J., about 1810, and settled near Conklin Station ; Edmund Lawrence, who settled on the river road, in the north part of the town, in 1813 ; Felix McBride, who came from Ireland, in 1830, and settled on the river road, about four miles from Binghamton, and who was followed by his son, Michael, four years later. At that time, says Mr. McBride, there was no regular public high- way — only a sled road along the river. He was accustomed to go to mill in the summer with an ox-sled. There were, he says, but three wagons in the town, (which then comprised Kirkwood and a part of Windsor,) most of the carrying busi- ness being done in boats on the river. The first birth was that of Wm. Wentz, Feb. 18, 1795; the first marriage, that of Noel Oarr and Sally Tousler in 1803 ; and the first death that of Silas Bowker. The first school was taught by Geo. Land, in 1801. The settlers in this vicinity gave early evidence of a deep interest in religious matters. The first religious services were, says French, conducted by Eevs. David Dunham and John Leach, Methodist missionaries ; but whether the extraordinary zeal displayed by the inhabitants of this locality at an early day was due to their ministrations does not appear, though it is fair to presume they exerted a salutary influence in that direction. The people seem to have been extremely rigorous in the observ- ance of devotional exercises, for in speaking of them, J. B. Wil- kinson, in the "Annals of Binghamton," page 140, says, "it is said that in all the families from the mouth of Snake Creek to Harmony, beyond the Bend, [Great Bend in Penn.,] morning and evening prayers were offered; and not one family in this whole distance in which there was not one or more of the members pious." But what appears more strange is the fact, which we extract from the same work, that " in the course of five and twenty years, instead of nearly all the families being pious, not but two or three were to be found entitled to that sacred epithet." Whether this declension is due to the removal of these early settlers and the influx of an element inimical to their devout practices, or to change in their religious convic- tions, we have been unable to learn ; but th^ author quoted is inclined to " refer it to the general depravity of men." After the death, in 1814, of Rev. Daniel Buck, the resident minister at Great Bend, infidelity, which had previously manifested itself in a subdued form, was, by many, "openly and publicly avowed; 110 CONKLIN-PSNTON. and its abettors went so far as to hold their meetings on the Sabbath, and to read Paine's 'Age of Eeason ' to the mul- titude. They showed their hostility to the Christian religion, by attending meetings for dirine worship, and either succeed- ing with theirs immediately, before the Christian Congregation had dispersed, or they would commence before the stated hour of Christian worship. Meetings then were held in a school house, in which the whole community felt they had an equal right. The magistrate of the place however, who took a part in this demoralizing cause, too active for his own interest or last- ing reputation, was in consequence finally deposed from his office." In what the culpability of the so-called infidels, im- plied in the quotation from Mr. Wilkinson, consisted, does not appear, unless it is found in the persistance of the right to the free exercise of their religious convictions ; for the right to the use of the school house for religious purposes remains unques- tioned, and his charge does not implicate them in any breach of decorum. But we will draw the mantle of charity over an historic period in which men were sometimes led by blind zeal to unwittingly persecute those who differed with them in mat- ters of religion, and look with intense gratitude at a present which ensures comparatiye immunity to all from similar perse- cutions. The First Baptist Church of Conklin, located on the river road, near the east center of the town, was organized in 1855, with forty-three members, by Rev. S. M. Stimson of Binghamton, who was the first pastor. Their house of worship, which will seat 335 persons, was erected in 1856, at a cost of $1,600. There are sixty members. The present pastor is Eev. Edward H. Ashton. The Church property is valued at $4,500. The M. E. Church, located on Little Snake Creek, was organ- ized with sixty members, by Eev. C. N. Arnold, who became and is still its pastor, in February, 1873, in which year their church edifice, which will seat 325 persons, was erected, at a cost of $3,000. The Church property is valued at $3,500. The number of members is 75. FENTON* was formed from Chenango, Dec. 3, 1855. It lies upon the east bank of the Chenango Eiver, and borders on * It was formed aa Port Crane, (which name it derived from Jayson Crane, one of the engineers on the Chenango canal,) and its name changed to Fenton, March 26, 1867, in honor of Reuben E. Fenton, in consequence of the extreme aversion of a part of the inhabitants to the former name, an aversion which was so potent as to induce some of them to resist the payment of taxes. The names of the ofiScers elected by the Board of Election, (composed of John Bishop, George Hiokox, WiUet Cross and H. A. Slosson, the latter FBNTON. in the south boundary of Chenango county. Its surface is hilly, but the hills are broad and the slopes gentle. The steep hills which border along the Chenango and rise from 500 to 700 feet above it, confine the valley of that river -within narrow limits. Page Brook,* the principal stream, flows in a southerly direction through the west part, and divides the uplands into two distinct ridges. Osborn Creek rises near the tunnel on the A. & S. E. E. in the north part of the town of Colesville, and entering this town near the south-east corner, flows in an east- erly direction to the Chenango, into which it discharges its waters a little north of Port Crane. Pond Brook is composed of two ponds over a mile in length and separated from each other by a sharp ridge, called the "Hog Back," under which the water from the upper passes into the lower pond. The out- let is but a few rods from the river and as the ponds have a con- siderable elevation above it, an excellent water power is formed. This has been and still is a great resort for fishermen. The ponds are yet stocked with various kinds of fish. The surface of the country for some distance around is very peculiar. It consists of plain land interspersed with basins or small valleys, some of which descend to a great depth below the general level. These basins have no connection with each other and all pre- sent the appearance of having been ponds at some remote period. The plain was formerly covered with a dense growth of pine. The soil is well adapted to tillage. On the hills it consists of a clay and slaty loam underlaid by hardpan, while in the valleys it is a rich gravelly loam and alluvium. With the exception of the country bordering the Chenango Eiver and Page Brook the town is comparatively new. Along these streams are some fine farms and sightly residences. Among the latter are the residences of James E. Waite at Port Crane, Marvin ConnifF at North Penton and Jno. Hullf at the con- fluence of Page Brook and the Chenango Eiver, which, in point of architectural beauty, compare favorably with villas of greater pretensions. The latter is especially attractive. It is situated elerk of the Board,) Feb. 12, 1856, are as follows : (No choice was made for Supervisor,) Hermon Waite, Town derkj John Bishop, Enos Puffer, Thomas Taber and Ebenezer Crocker, Justices ; John B. Van Name, School Superintendent; James Nowland and BenJ. A. Potter, Commis- sioners of Highways; James A. Barnes, I. D. Amsbury and Geo. P. Mil- ler, .Assessors; Wm. Slosson and Garry V. Scott, Overseers of the Poor; Hiram SiUiman, Collector ; Henry Kark, Sherman McDaniel, John Jones, lioverett Jeffers and Willet Cross, Constables ; Daniel Hickox, Wm. Wil- liamson and Simon J. Lounsbury, Inspectors of Election. * This stream is named from Isaac Page, who settled on it in 1807. + Mr. Hull was the first Supervisor elected in the town, an office he has since several times filled. He has for several years been extensively en- gaged in erecting public works, and has held important trusts from the State. 112 FENTON. about twenty-five rods from the main road, on an elevation of forty feet, covering an area of about two acres. It is approach- ed from the east on an artificial embankment, and is surrounded by trees and shrubbery which give evidence of fine taste in their owner and constitute it a most lovely retreat. The Chenango Canal extends through the town, following the course of the Chenango river. The Syracuse and Bing- hamton E. R. crosses the south-west corner, about three-fourths of a mile east of the border. The Albany and Susquehanna R. R. enters the town near the south-east corner and, running in an easterly direction until within about a mile of the south- west border, turns south and runs nearly parallel with the S. & B. R. R., leaving the town on the south border. The town covers an area of 17,972 acres, of which, in 1865, according to the census of that year, 9,759, were improved. Its population in 1870 was 1,499. During the year ending Sept. 30, 1871, it contained nine school districts and employed nine teachers. The number of children of school age was 428; the number attending school, 354 ; the average attendance, 177 ; the amount expended for school purposes, $2,215 ; and the value of school houses and sites, $4,260. Port Okane, (p. v.) on the Chenango canal, in the south part, contains two fine, new churches, (Baptist and M. E.) two stores, a hotel and a good school house. It has been for many years a depot for considerable quantities of lumber, and, being a canal village, boat building and repairing has been an im- portant branch of its industry. It is nearly surrounded by hills, although lying on the bank of the Chenango. Formerly, for nearly two miles below, the river washed the base of per- pendicular rocks, known as Crocker Mountain, and the in- habitants were obliged to cross this summit to get to Binghamton. But now the canal is cut in its base and is separated from the river by an embankment wide enough for a highway, both of which are protected by a slope wall. A fine view is afforded of the A. & S. R. R. as it winds along the mountain side, far above the level of the canal. Port Crane station on this road is distant from the village about a mile. North Fentow (p. o.) (also known as Ketchum's Corners) is pleasantly located in the valley of Page Brook, in the north .part of the town. It contains a fine church, a store, grocery and a large cheese factory. The people are energetic and en- terprising.* * This was the place of residence of the late Rev. Enos Puffer, who, during the Rebellion, invented a bomb-shell charged with inflammable matter. FENTON. 1 lis The first settlement is belieTcd to have been made by Elisha Pease in 1788. Jared Page, Vining and Timothy Cross,* ■were also early feettlers. Isaac Page, Garry Williamson, f John F. Miller and Elias Miller settled on Page Brook, in'1807. John P. Miller located one mile below North Fenton, where his son, Robert T. Miller, now resides. He died March 5th, * Mr. Cross is etill a resident and is hale and hearty. He is conversant with many of the daring exploits of the early settlers in their encounter with wild beasts. Owing to its peculiar situation Port Crane was for many years a famous sporting field. It lies outside the arc formed by the bend in the river in its vicinity. In its rear is a fine circular range of hills, which ter- minate above and below in perpendicular rooks called the upper and lower rocks, and which is divided nearly midway, by OsbomX^reek; while in front are maniflcent hills filling the arc down to the river's brink. A hound set after a deer anywhere in the area inclosed by the river and this semi- circle of hills was sure to bring it to the water at one of the points of rocks, and if it escaped those stationed there would cross the stream and take to the opposite mountains. Deer were numerous and in warm weather, as is their custom, visited the salt licks in laige numbers. Mr. Cross relates an adventure of Isaac Page, who knew of one of these resorts, and, as was his custom, went one night to watch. Soon hi« experienced ear detected signs of the approach of the expected game. He waited some time, but failing to ascertain their whereabouts, he concluded they had left the vicin- ity without the usual manifestations, and became convinced that some- thing extraordinary was the matter. He was notJong left in suspense, for his conviction was soon confirmed and his attention riveted to two fire-like balls which gleamed above ^log but a few feet in front of him, and from behind which they seemed gradually to rise. At this critical moment he leveled his trusty rifle, with as much precision as the darkness rendered practicable and fired, and rising, walked deliberately away. In the morn- ing he returned and to his surprise saw that he had shot a large panther. Thus the unaccountable leaving of the deer the previous night was explained. Mr. Cross also relates the following incident of himself: One day he heard hounds on the trail, and as it was evident the deer would cross the lower rocks too soon for him he took his favorite dog in a dug-out and crossed over to the upper point on the other side. As he expected the deer came to the river, crossed and took to the mountains. The dog, being well trained, crossed likewisia and was soon on the trail. This was as Cross anticipated, and taking his dog in his arms he took his station in the road which runs along the river-bank several feet above the water. Soon the deer made its appearance in the road and he threw the dog very nearly against it. Both deer and dog plunged into the river. The deer came to a bar, on which it was able to maintain a footing, and stood at bay. As the current was swift the deer had the dog at a disadvantage, for as often as the dog swam to it, it was struck under by the fore-paw of the deer, and would come to the surface some distance below. Cross stood for some time a spectator of the unequal contest, until apprehension for the safety of his dog induced him to wade out to its assistance. Intent in watching its assailant the deer did not heed his approach until he got within a feW feet of it, when it suddenly turned, rose upon its hind feet, and tried to strike him down. In its struggles, the deer struck one foot into Cross's hand. He immediately grasped it. At the same time it became so firmly entangled in its horns as to draw its head into the water, where Cross had it entirely at his mercy. When the dog, which was nearly exhausted, saw its enemy subdued, he took a position on the deer and retained it till its master drew both ashore. + Garrv Williamson's was the third deed recorded in the Broome County Clerk's oflce. His son, Garry WUlliamson, lives on the old "Home- stead." 114 fBNTON—KIMKWOOD. 1869, aged 87 years. His sons (Geo. P., Eobert T., Hurd F. and Addison,) are still residents of North Penton. The birth of Chester Pease, in 1793, was the first in the town ; the death of Mrs. Pease, in 1789, was the iirst death ; and the marriage contracted by Gardner Wilson and Polly Sugg, in 1800, was the first marriage. The first saw mill was erected by Elisha Pease in 1797; and the first store was kept by Thomas Cooper, in 1813. Ozias Masch taught the first school in 1800. Kev. John Camp conducted the first religious services in 1798. As nearly as we have been able to ascertain the number of persons who enlisted during the war of the Rebellion in Port Crane and its immediate vicinity was sixty-four, of whom twelve were killed. Enlistments were made in the 16th N. Y. Ar- tillery, and the 37th, 50th, 89th, I09th, 137th, 149th and 179th Eegts. N. Y. Vol. Infty. North Fenton furnished, in addition to the above, twenty-six men, who enlisted in the 8th N. Y. Cavalry and the 79th N. Y. Infty., and of whom six were killed or died from wounds received or disease contracted while in the service. The First Baptist Church of Port Crane was organized with nineteen members, by W. Alibum, in 1860. Their first pastor was Rev. A. P. Menie; the pulpit is at present supplied by Rev. H. H. Mills. Their house of worship, which will seat 350 per- sons, is a very fine one, and was erected in 1870, at a cost of 85,000. There are thirty-three members. The church prop- erty is valued at $6,000. The M. E. Church, at Port Crane, was organized in 1841. Rev. G. A. Burlingame was the first pastor.* Their house of worship, which will seat 350 persons, was erected in 1870, at a cost of 14,700. There are forty-five members. The church property is valued at $5,000. The First M. E. Church, located at North Fenton, was or- fanized in 1832, by Rufus G. Christian, Ebenezer Cole, Charles llliott, Justin Watrous, Garret Williamson and Claude Ham- ilton. The first church edifice was erected the same year; the present one, in 1871, at a cost of $3,000. It is a very fine build- ing and will seat 400 persons. The first pastor was Rev. P. S. Worden; the present one is Rev. Thomas Burgess. There are 130 members. The church property is valued at $6,000. KIBKWOOD was formed from Conklin, Nov. 33, 1859. It is one of the southern tier of towns and lies near the center of the County. It is separated from Conklin, on the west, by * Until Ms death, May 22, 1872, this Society enjoyed the ministrations of Kev. Enos Puffer. KIBKWOOD. 115 the Susquehanna, which, with its several email tributaries, form its waters. The surface is generally hilly, though along the river extends a fine broad intervale, enriched by the fer- tilizing deposits of the adjacent hills. The hills, which, on the west side of the river, are steep, on the east side have a more gradual descent. On the hills the soil consists of clay and gravel, largely intermixed with slate ; while in the valley it is a deep, rich alluvium and gravelly loam. Most of the remain- ing timber consists of oak and chestnut. The pine, of which there was a considerable quantity, has mostly been cut and sent to market, the stumps being utilized as fences. Various kinds of grain are grown successfully, and dairying is carried on to quite an extent. The New York and Erie R. R. passes through the town, fol- lowing the course of the Susquehanna. The town covers an area of 18,437 acres, of which, in 1865, according to the census of that year, 13,706, were improved. Its population in 1870 was 1,403. During the year ending Sepi). 30, 1871, it contained tea school districts and employed ten teachers. The number of children of school age was 491 ; the number attending school, 399 ; the average attendance, 319 ; the amount expended for school purposes, $3,401 ; and the value of school houses and sites, $4,360. KiEKWOOD (p. V.) is located in the south-west part, on the Susquehanna River, and the N. Y. & B. R. R., by which it is distant eleven miles from Binghamton. It contains one 6hurch, (M. E.) a school house, three stores, a wagon shop, a harness shop, two blacksmith shops, a shoe shop, a paint shop, forty houses and 155 inhabitants. About one mile south of the vil- lage, on the Susquehanna, are the Kirkwood Mills, of which M. A. Andrews is prop. They consist of a grist, saw and planing mill. About 100,000 feet of lumber are sawed in the saw mill. Considerable custom grinding is done, and but very little plan- ing. Kirkwood Cejtter (p. o.) is situated on the Susquehanna River, and the N. Y. & E. R. R., near the center of the west border. It is distant from Binghamton by rail eight miles. Riverside (p. o.) is located in the extreme south part, on the Susquehanna River, and on the N. Y. & E. R. R. It con- tains one church, (M. E.) one school house, a cooper shop, wagon shop, blacksmith shop, store, twenty-five dwellings and 135 inhabitants. 116 KIBKWUOD. Standlet Hollow is located in the north-east part, and contains a school house, blacksmith shop, five or six dwellings and about twenty-five inhabitants. Ferguson's saw mill, located on the Windsor road, about one mile from the town line, saws about 50,000 feet of lumber an- nually. We are unable to give the date of the first settlement of 'this town; but among the early settlers are the following: John and William Jones, who came from near Trenton, N. J., in 1803, and settled on the river about two miles below Kirkwood, at which time the country was new and the forests abonnded with all kinds of game; ilenry C. Bayless, who, with his father, came from Middlesex Co., N. j., but immediately from Wilkes- barre, Penn., in 1808, and settled on the farm contiguous to the Conklin bridge;* Ely Osborne, who came from Windsor, Conn., about 1812, and located at Standley Hollow, formerly known as "South Osborne Hollow"; Ezra Carrier, who came from Liberty, Sullivan Co., in the autumn of 1814, and located on the river, about five miles from Binghamton, on the farm now occupied by James White; Moses Standley, who came from Bennington, Vt., in 1820, and located in the eastern part of the town, near Osborne Hollow ; Thomas M. Carroll, who was one of the first settlers at Standley Hollow; and Arthur Attridge, who located in the north part of the town in 1824, at which time there was only one" house between his and the Chenango Eiver. The first grist millf in the County was erected in 1790 at or near the mouth of " Pitch's Creek," about four miles above Binghamton, and it, as well as the creek on which it was located, was named from Jonathan Pitch, to whom it belonged. Mr. Pitch was from Wyoming, and settled on the creek to which he gave his name in 1789. He is believed to have been the first rejjresentative to the State Legislature fi'om Tioga County, though some confer this honor upon Gen. Patterson, who settled at an early day at Whitney's Point. * At that time, says Mr. Bayless, there were only three families near them, viz. : the Berlialews, Bounds and Koods, all of whom lived near Kirkwood, which was then covered \>j a forest of oalc and hickory. The river afforded the principal carrying facilities. Their grists were taken to mill by this means. On one occasion when he and his brother attempted to cross the river at high water, their canoe became unmanageable and ran against a tree, up which they climbed and were obliged to remain some time before they could right their canoe. ■I- It is probable, that for a few years after this mill was erected, it was the only one within at least eighty miles west of it, for in 1793 we find that the inhabitants of Newarli Valley, in Tioga County, and within the limits of what was then known as " Brown's Settlement," carried their grists to this mill, a distance of forty miles. KIBK-WOOD-LISLE. ny The Christian Church, located at Kirkwood, was organized Oct. 18, 1856, with nineteen members, by Eev. J. G. Noble, its first pastor. Their church edifice, which will seat 250 per- sons, was erected the following year, at a cost of $1,000. There are forty members ; but there is no pastor. The Ohurcli prop- erty is Talued at $900. The First M. E. Church of Kirhwood was organized with twenty-five members, in 1860, in which year their house of worship, which will seat 330 persons, was erected at a cost of $1,500. The first pastor was Eev. J. M. Grimes; the present one is Rev. James N. Lee. There are seventy-five members. The Church property is valued at $4,000. LISLE (named from Lisle in France,) was formed from Union, March 14, 1800. Barker, Nanticoke and Triangle were formed, frpm it April 18, 1831. The line of Berkshire, Tioga Co., was altered in 1812, and a part of Union was taken off in 1827. It is the north-west corner town in the county. Its sur- face consists of a hilly and broken upland, unequally divided by the valley of Tioughnioga Eiver. The hills have an eleva- tion of from 400 to 700 feet above the river ; their declivities are generally steep — too steep to admit of cultivation. Tiough- nioga Eiverj which runs through the east part of the town, in a southerly direction, is the principal stream. The other streams are small. They are Yorkshire and Fall creeks. The former flows easterly nearly through the center of the town, the latter in the same direction, near the north line; both empty into the Tioughnioga. The head waters of Nanticoke Creek are in the south-west part of the town. The narrow valley of Yorkshire Creek breaks the continuity of the western range of hills. AloDg the valleys the soil is a rich gravelly loam, but on the hills it is characterized by clay and slaty gravel, underlaid by hardpan. The moist clayey loam on the summits of the hills is better adapted to grass than grain culture. The Syracuse and Binghamton E. E. extends through the town, following the course of the river. The town covers an area of 35,083J acres, of which, in 18G5, according to the census of that year, 14,560J were im- proved. Its population in 1870 was 3,535. During the year ending Sept. 30,1871, the town contained twelve school districts, in which fifteen teachers were employed. The number of children of school age was 80C; the number attending school, 660; the average attendance, 364; the amount expended for school purposes, ^6,396 ; and the value of school houses and sites, 116,710. H 118 LISLE. Lisle (p. t.) is situated on the west bank of the Tiough- nioga, at the junction of Yorkshire Creek with that stream, and is a station on*the S. & B. E. E. It is an incorporated village and contains two churches, (Congregational and M. E.) a Union graded school, two dry goods stores, one hardware store and tin shop, a drug store, three harness shops, a carriage shop, three blacksmith shops, one furnace and machine shop, a grist mill, two saw mills, a large tannery for tanning sheep skins, a jewelry store, a variety store, two dental offices, two shoe shops, a clothing and furnishing store, a furniture manufactory, a milliner shop, a tailor shop and about 500 inhabitants. Yorkshire, (Center Lisle p. o.,) situated near the center of the town, on the Creek of the same name, contains three churches, (Baptist, Congregational and M. E.) one hotel, a dry goods store, a grocery, a large tannery* for tanning sheep skins, a steam saw mill and grist mill, a wagon shop, a blacksmith shop, a milliner shop and dressmaker shop. KiLLAVfOG, (p. 0.) situated in the north-east part, on the 8. & B. E. E. and the Tioughnioga Eiver, contains two churches, (Baptist and M. E.) two .dry goods stores, a^rist_mill, a steam saw mill, a blacksmith shop and thirty or forty" dwellings. MiLLViLLE, loca.te!d en the Tioughnioga, near the south-east corner of the town, contains a large tannery, a grist mill and saw mill, a blacksmith shop and several dwellings. The first settlement is believed to have been made in 1791,t by emigrants from North East, Dutchess Co. Among these and those who subsequently settled at an early day were Eben- ezer Tracy, Eliphalet Parsons, Josiah Patterson, Whittlesey Glea- son, Edward EdwardsJ and David Manning. The last two settled on the Tioughnioga in 1795. The first birth was that of Henry Patterson, in 1793; the first marriage, that of Solomon Owen and Sylvia Cook ; and the first death, that of Wright Dudley. Jacob Hill built the first grist mill. Capt. John Johnson from Conn., we are credibly informed, kept the first store and tavern. § *Thi8 tannery is 360 feet long, and gives emplc>yment to about one hundred men. + French's State Gazetteer, p. 182. % Edwards was grandson of President Edwards of Princeton College, and first cousin to Aaron Burr, who was Vice-President of the United States, in 1801, and was brought up in the family to which Edwards belonged. He was member of the State Legislature in the time of Gov. Jay's administration. Mr. Edwards is said to have built the first saw mill on the Tioughnioga River. § Says French, "the first store was kept by Moses Adams and the first tavern by O. Wheaton, in 1799." LISLE. 119 Eeligious services were instituted as early as 1795, by Kev. Seth Williston, who was sent here by the Connecticut Missionary Society at the solicitation of Mr. Edward Edwards. Two years later the labors of Mr. Williston were rewarded by the organ- ization of the First Congregational Church of Lisle, whose first pastor be became. At its organization the church consisted of eleven professing members, and five who were not professors. "William Osborn was elected to the ofQee of deacon in 1801, but it was not until 1810 that he and Andrew Squires, his col- league, were consecrated. Mr. Williston employed only half his time in pastoral duties in this Society, the residue being oc- cupied in missionary labors in Union, Owego and Oquaga. From 1803, when he was installed pastor of this church, till 1810, when he was dismissed from it, he seems to have devoted all his time within the pastoral limits of this congregation. This church "was the earliest organized, it is believed, of any west of the Catskills and south of Utica."* Their first house of worship was not erected until 1823. The present one, which will seat 400 persons, was erected two years later at a cost of $3,000. The present pastor is Rev. E. A. Clark and the num- ber of members, seventy. The Church property is valued at $7,000. The M. K Church, of Lisle, was organized about 1815, by Rev. Geo. W. Densmore, its first pastor. The first class was organized in 1830 or '31, with P. B. Brooks as leader. Their house of worship, which will feat 350 persons, was erected in 1857, at a cost of $3,000. The present pastor is Rev. A. W. Loomis ; the number of members, eighty. The value of Church property is $4,500. The Baptist Church at Center Lisle was organized with seven members, in 1838, Their church edifice, which will seat 400 •persons, was erected in 1856, at a cost of $4,400. Rev. Asahel Holcomb was the first pastor; Rev. Gardner Dean is the present one. There are twenty-six members. The value of Church 1^ property is $3,000. The Congregational Church at Center Lisle waS organized with nineteen members, June 14, 1830, by Rev. Seth Burt. Their first house' of worship was erected two years later ; and the present one, which will seat 400 persons, in 1855, at a cost of $3,300. Rev. AlvinD. French was the first pastor; at pres- ent there is none. The number of members is sixty. The Church property is valued at $6,000. * Armcds of Binghamton, p. 166. 1 20 LISLE— MAINE. The Baptist Church at Killawog was organized with sixty- niue members in 1841. Eev. David Leach was the first pastor. The church edifice occupied by this Society was erected in 1835, and repaired in 1868. It will seat 300 persons^ Its original cost was 13,000 ; its present yalue, together with all Church property, is $5,000. There are fifty-one members, who are ministered to by Eer. Abner Lull. The M. E. Church at Killawog was organized with thirty members by Eev. Arvine C. Bowdish, its first pastor, in 1867,' in which year was erected their church edifice, which will seat 200 persons, at a cost of 83,000, which is the present value of Church property. The present pastor is Rev. Eeuben Fox ; and the 'number of members, seventy-five. , The M. E. Church at Center Lisle was organized by Eev. D. D. Lindsley, the first pastor, in 1869, in which year their church edifice, which will seat 250 persons, was erected at a cost of 84,500, which is the present value of Church property. Eev. A. W. L'oomis is the present pastor. MAINE was formed from Union, March 27, 1848.* A part was annexed to Chenango in 1856. It is located about the center of the west border of the County. Its surface con- sists of ranges of hills, separated by numerous narrow valleys, the principal of which — the valley of Nanticoke Creek — ex- tends in a north and south direction, a little west of the center of the town. The hills rise from 400 to 600 feet above the valley of Chenango Eiver. The principal streams arg Nanticoke, Bradley and Crocker creeks. Bradley Creek rises a little east of the center, and, flowing in a south-west direction, empties into Xanticoke Creek a little south of the south line in Union; Crocker Creek enters the town near the south-west corner, and, flowing in a general south-east direction, dis- charges its waters into the same stream, about the sane distance north of the south line. Several minor tributaries of * The first town meeting was held in the school house in the villajre of Maine, uu the 25th of the following April. At this meeting John C t'ur- tis, Sands Niles and Louis Gates were the presiding officers, and Nathan- iel W. Sastman was clerk. In accordance with the resolutions then adopted the following named officers were elected : Andrew H. Arnold, Sitjjsruiso/': John W. Hunt, Tomn- Clcrh; Marshall DeLano, Superintend- ent of Common Schools ; John T. Davis, Collector ; Cyrus Gates, J ohn Blan- chard and Hanan W. Moores, Jufirleen of the Peace; Orange H. Arnold, Thomas Young Jr. and Wm. H. Tuttle, Assessors; Hanan Payne and Edward Ward, Commissioners of Hirilnvdys; Dexter Hathaway and Matthew Allen, Overseers of tlie Poor ; Eustis Hathaway, John B. Smith, Joel Benson and Ransom T. Gates, Constables; Jeljersoii Ransom, Auiasa Durfee and Luke Curtis, Inspectors of Elections; James "W. Carman, Scaler of Wei'jhts and ileasuixx ; and Lyman Pollard, Pound Master. MAISB. 121 the Nanticoke spread, fan-like, over the north part, and all pursue a southerly direction. Little Choconut Creek flows almost due south through the south-east corner, entering the town on the north line of the southern angle which projects into the town of Chenango. The soil is a gravelly loam largely intermixed with the underlying slate. The inhabitants are chiefly engaged in lum- bering and dairying. Two " farmers' clubs " have been organ- ized, and periodical meetings are held at the residences of the dififerent members, and the deliberations are participated in by the families of the members. Crops, stock, out-buildings, agricultural implements, &c., are critically examined and com- mented upon. The subjects discussed at these meetings are designed to embrace all matters of interest to a farming com- munity. Such meetings nurture amicable social relations and afford opportunities for the interchange of ideas, which will tend to stimulate a spirit of generous rivalry and promote the farming interests of the County at large. The population of the town in 1870 was 3,035. Its area is 27,319f acres, of which, in 1865, according to the census of that year, 15,7381, were improved. During the year ending Sept. 30, 1871, the town contained thirteen school districts and employed fourteen teachers. The number of children of school age was 634; the number at- tending school, 556 ; the average attendance, 383 ; the amount expended for school purposes, $3,653; and the value of school houses and sites, $5,335. Maine (p. v.) is located on the west bank of Nanticoke Creek, west of the center of the town. The principal part of the village is built in the form of a square. Its well laid out and neatly shaded streets present a pleasing aspect. It contains four stores, three churches, (Baptist, Congregational and M. E.) one hotel, a tannery,* a rake factory,f a saw mill, a tin shop, three blacksmith shops, two cooper shops, a wagon shop, two shoe shops, one tailor shop and three hundred inhabitants. East Maine (p. o.) is located in the east part, south of the center, and contains a cooper shop, wagon shop and blacksmith shop. Bowers Corners is a hamlet located one mile north of Maine village and contains a store, a shoe shop, blacksmith shop and wagon shop. * The tannery contains 132 vats, employs twenty men, annually oonsumea 2,500 cords of bark and manufactures 12,000 hides. + The rake manufactory produces annually an average of from 15,000 to 20,000 rakes in addition to other work of a miscellaneous character. 123 MAINE. The two principal saw mills in the town are Pollard's and Baker's. The latter is a steam mill and is capable of sa\/- ing from 3,000,000 to 4,000,000 feet of lumber annually, though the yearly average does not exceed one and one-half million feet. The town was principally settled by families from New Hampshire, Connecticut and Massachusetts. Benj. Norton settled about three-fourths of a mile above the site of Maine village, in 1794. He was a native of Stockbridge, Mass. lu 1797 Alfred and Eussell Gates, two brothers, came from the vicinity of Binghamton, where they had located four years pre- viously, and settled in the north-west part of the town, now known as the Gates settlement. They cut their road through the forest from Centerville, a distance of seven miles. At that period they were in the habit of carrying their dinners to work with them ; but they were obliged to be as careful in the selection of food as the most confirmed dyspeptic, as any- thing emitting an agreeable odor was sure to attract to them an escort of wolves, whose number and presence were far from awakening pleasurable emotions. Daniel Howard and Win- throp Eoe came the same year. Moses Delano and Nathaniel Slosson are said to have been the first settlers in the vicinity of East Maine. They located there about the beginning of the present century, and were followed by Samuel Stone andHeman Payne in 1816, and by William Hogg in 1836. The latter was joined a few years later by a number of his relatives, who gave the settlement the jiame of Mount Ettrick, in honor of their, uncle.* By industry and intelligent farming they have done much to improve the locality in which they settled. James Ketchum, from Conn., came here from near Binghamton, where he settled about 1790, and located about three miles south- west of Maine village, on lot 155 of the Boston Purchase, in 1802. Timothy Caswell, who appears to have been the first settler in the locality known as the Allen settlement, located there in 1815, and was followed some five or six years later by John Mareau, and in 1836 by Ebenezer and Matthew Allen, from Otsego County. Marsena H. Mclntyre, froni Otsego County, settled in the north-west corner of the town, in what is known both as North Maine and the Mclntyre settlement, on the 7th of May, 1829. The north-east part of the town was the last settled. It is known as " Canada " — a name it owes to the following incident: It was covered with a growth of very fine timber, which persons in its neighborhood were accustomed to appropriate to their own uses. Warrants were * James Hogg, the Scottish poet, who was born in the forest of Ettrick, in Selkirkshire, in 1773, and who in early life followed the occupation of a shepherd, was commonly known as "the Ettrick Shepherd." MAINE. 123 frequently issued for the guilty parties, but the inquiries of the officers invariably elicited the reply that those for whom they were searching had gone to Canada. During the war of the Eebellion this town furnished 190 men, nearly one hundred of whom belonged to the 50th En- gineers. Of this number fifteen were killed. The Congregational Church, located at Maine village, was organ- ized with forty members, in 1818, and re-organized in 1833. Its first church edifice was erected in 1824; and the present one, which will seat 260 persons, in 1840, at a cost of $3,000. The first pastor was Eev. Naham Gould ; the present one is Eev. William T. Hayward. There are 220 members. The Church property is valued at $7,500. The First Baptist Church of Maine was organized with thirty- one members, by a Council* convened at the Congregational Church, Jan. 21, 1835. The church edifice will seat 300 persons, was erected in 1840, at a cost of $1500, and dedicated in Dec. of that year. Eev. William Gates was the first pastor ; Eev. H. E. Dakin is the present one. There are 170 members. The value of Church property is $6,000. The M. E. Church, located near Union Center, was organized with forty-five members, in 1836, and its house of worship, which will seat two hundred persons, was erected the following year. Eev. S. Stocking, was the first pastor ; the present one is Eev. Wesley Sartelle. The M. E. Church, located at North Maine, was organized with thirteen members, in 1844, by Marsena H. Mclntyre, Orange H. Arnold, Eussell Eobinson and George M. Harden- dorf. Their church edifice was erected in 1870, and dedicated March 8, 1871. It cost $3,000, which is the present value of Church property, and will seat 180 persons. There are thirty-eight members. Eev. Thomas Pitts was the first pastor ; Eev. John A. Wood is the present one. The M. E. Church, located at Maine village, was re-organized (the date of its first organization is not known) with forty members in 1866, by Eussell Dodds, Clinton Cleveland, Henry Turner, Matthew Allen, James Howard, Daniel Dudley and Henry Van Tuyl. The church edifice, which will seat 150 per- sons, was erected in 1847 or '8, at a cost of $2,000, which is one- half the present value of Church property.

The church was dedicated by Eev. Daniel W. Bristoe, D. D., Jan. 7, 1869. Eev. Abbott was the first pastor; Eev. Edgar Sibley is the present one. There are fifty members. The Church property is valued at $3,000. A Presbyterian church is now in process of erection in the immediate vicinity of East Maine. NANTICOKE* was formed from Lisle April 18, 1831. It lies upon the west border, north of the center. The surface consists of an upland broken by a few narrow ravines. The highest summits are from 100 to 300 feet above the Susque- hanna, and from 1,300 to 1,400 feet above tide. The town is watered by the two main branches of the Nanticoke and their tributaries. Bith these branches flow south, one through the western, and the other through the eastern part. The soil upon the hills is a slaty loam underlaid by hardpan. The town covers an area of 16,134 J acres, of which, in 1865, according to the census of that year, 7,41 3 J, or less than one- half was improved. The population in 1870 was 1,058. During the year ending Sept. 30, 1871, the town contained seven school districts and employed seven teachers. The num- ber of children of school age was 399 ; the number attending school, 333 ; the average attendance, 161 ; the amount expend- ed for school purposes, $1,585 ; and the value of school houses and sites, $3,310. Lambs Coenees, (p. o.) located on Nanticoke Creek, west of the center of the town, contains two churches, (Baptist and M. E.) one store, a wagon shop, a blacksmith shop and two saw mills, one of which (Washington Johnson's) is quite extensive. It is run by steam, and in connection with it are a grist and planing mill. About 300,000 feet of lumber are annually cut, this being done in the spring of the year. The rest of the time is occupied in planing and finishing. The postoffice was established here in 1860 and was removed from Nanticoke Springs. Glen Aubeey, (p. o.)

NANTICOEB. , 125 near the soutli line and east of the center, contains two churches, (Christian and M. E.) two stores, three blacksmith shops and one shoe shop. There was formerly a tannery here, but it is burnt down. Najtticoee Speings, located on Nanticoke Creek, about one mile south of Lambs Corners and near the south line, derives both its name and importance from the mineral spring located there. The principal settlements are in the Talleys of the streams. They were commenced in 1793 .and '4 by John Beach tlQ, Philip Councilman,* James Stoddard and John Ames, who located on the east Nanticoke. Beachtle was from Luzerne county, Penn., and Stoddard, from Connecticut. The former, and afterwards Ames, occupied the farm now owned by Charles H. and James Stoddard.f Councilman lived by hunting and trapping until he accumulated a snflBcient amount to purchase 300 acres of land. The first settler on the west Nanticoke was Isaac Lamb, who located on the site of the village of Lamb's Corners, in 1804. The first birth was that of Betsey Stoddard, in 1794, and the first death, that of Miss Bird, sister of Mrs. Stoddard. The M. E. Church, at Lamb's Corners, was organized with twenty members, in 1853, in which year their house of wor- ship, which win seat 200 persons, was erected, at a cost of $1,000, which is two-fifths of the present value of Church property. Eev. John M. Grimes was the first pastor; the present one is Eev. J. N. Lee. There are forty members.

Two feet from the ground the trunk measures eleven feet, six and one-half inches in circumference. One branch is over two feet in diameter, and four others average over thirteen inches each. This tree was planted in 1796, by Miss Polly Beachtle, who brought it from Pennsylvania on horse back. 1 26 SASTIOKB-SAMPOSV. at a cost of 81,300, was not erected until 1853. Its first pastor was Eev. Granville Gates; the present one is Eev. Geo. "W. Bliss. There are forty-five members. The Church property is valued at $3,000. The Christian Church, at Glen Aubrey, was organized with twelve members, in 1857, by Jonathan, Alison and William Stalker. The first pastor was Rev. Edward Tyler; Rev. James Youmans is the present one. The church edifice, which will seat 150 persons, was erected in 1866, at a cost of 11,800. There are thirty members. The Church property is valued at 12,300. The M. K Church, at Glen Aubrey, was organized with thirty members, but when and by whom we are unable to learn. Their church edifice was erected in 1867. It cost $2,500, and will seat 200 persons. It was dedicated in March, 1868, by Rev. B. I. Ives. Rev. Edgar Sibley was the first pastor ; Rev. J. N. Lee is the present one. There are from thirty-five to forty members. The Church property is valued at $3,000. SANFOBD was formed from "Windsor, April 2, 1821. It is the south-east corner town in the County, and is the largest one in the County. It covers an area of 52,674} acres, of which, in 1865, according to the census of that year, 21,024}, were improved. Its surface consists principally of the high ranges of hills which extend between the Delaware and Sus- quehanna rivers, and whose summits are from 500 to 900 feet above the valley, and declivities usually steep.* These high- lands are separated into two parts by the deep, narrow valley of Oquaga Creek. This valley and that of the Delaware are bounded by almost precipitous mountain declivities. The principal stream is Oquaga Creek, which enters the town nea* the north-east corner, and, flowing in a south-west direction to a point a little soutii of the center, turns and runs due east until it empties into the Delaware at Deposit. This creek 'has numerous falls, which furnish an abundance of ex- cellent water power. It has numerous small tributaries, the principal of which is North Brook. The Delaware forms the east boundary of the town, south of Deposit. Its geological formation consists in the west part of the Chemung group of the Old Red Sandstone, which terminates on the surface about three miles west of Deposit, where the Catskill group commences. In the former is found a great *The highest point between the two rivers, by the State Road Survey-; is 1,688 feet above tide."— i^VemcTi's State Gazetteer, p. 183.

In the valleys the soil is a fertile gravelly loam, but upon the hills it is a cold clayey loam, underlaid by hardpan. It is well adapted to dairying purposes, in which the people are largely engaged. The chief wealth of the town consists in its dairy products. In 1870 the town had a population of 3,349. During the year ending Sept. 30, 1871, it contained twenty-three school districts and employed twenty-four teachers. The number of children of school age was 1,265 ; the number attending school, 941 ; the average attendance, 439 ; the amount expended for school purposes, $7,672 ; and the value of school houses and sites, $13,064. Deposit* (p. v.) is situated partly in this town and partly in the town of Tompkins, Delaware' county.f It lies on the Dela- ware, at the mouth of Oquaga Creek. It is the center of a large lumber business, and is an important trading station and wood depot on the Brie E. E. which traverses the southern por- tion of the town. In addition to the numerous mechanical and other establishments, which are described more minutely in the Directory list for this village, it contains a printing office, ( The Deposit Courier,) a bank,J an academy,§ a library,|| a carriage factory ,T and about 1,600 inhabitants. * It derives its name from having been an important station, or place ol deposit, for lumber, preparatory to rafting in the spring freshets. It was called by the Indians " cofceose," or owls nest, which was corrupted by the English into "Cookhouse," a name by which it is still designated by the' old inhabitants. The earliest mention of this place is found in BoudinoVs Star in the West, where it is stated the Indian name was" 0-h.oot-ose," to which name the same meaning is given. + It was incorporated April 5, 1811, but the original limits of the village were entirely within the town of Tompkins. A part of Sanf ord was an- nexed in 1853 ; and the charter was amended in 1858. t The Deposit National Bank was organized February 20, 1854, and was changed to a National Bank July 1, 1854. It has a capital of 1125,000. The officers are Charles Knapp, President; James G. Clark, Vice-President; James H. Knapp, Cashier; C. J. Knapp, Assistant Cashier ; H.W. Knapp, Teller. §The Deposit Academy was built in 1866. It has accommodations for 200 boarding students. Connected with it is a library containing 150 vol- umes, valued at $300; and philosophical and chemical apparatus to the value of $120. The buildings and ground are valued at $7,700. The Prin- cipal, B. L. Thatcher, A. M., and Preceptress, Mrs. M. E. Thatcher, are as- siduous in their efforts to promote the mental, moral and physical welfare of those entrusted to their care. II The Deposit Library Association was organized in 1859. The library contains 575 volumes. T. More is President and A. More, Secretary.

Sanfoed (p. 0.) is located on Oquaga Creek, abojit the cen- ter of the town. North Sanfoed (p. o.) is located on Oquaga Creek, near the north-east corner. Gulf Sumjiit, (p. o.) located near the south-west corner, seven miles from Deposit, is a station on the Erie R. R. McOluee Settlement (p. o.) is located at the confluence of Oquaga Creek and North Brook, a little south of the center of the town. The post oflSce was established here in 1865. D. & S. Post's steam saw mill, located here, gives employment to seven men, annually saws four millions of feet of lumber and manufactures 5,000 lath per day. The first settlement was made in 1787, by Wm. McOlure,* *rrom Mr. M. R. Hulce of Deposit we learn the following interestingparti- culars relative to MoClure : He was born in 1725. His father was a native of Ireland, near Londonderry, and was of Scotch descent. McClure acquired a good English education — including a knowledge of navigation, survey- ing and higher mathematics — and some knowledge of Latin. The religi- ous principles imbibed in his boyhood inspired him with a deep reverence for the Deity, and his early training confirmed in him habits of exem- plary morality. These, with his proficiency in mathematics, were his chief recommendations to the land-holders, by whom he was employed as surveyor and laud-agent. In the Spring of 1787 he started from Orange county, (in which and Dutchess county he had been teaching successfully,) for the Cookhouse, in the employ of the owners of the Fisher & Norton Patent in this county, threading the pathless forests with the aid of his faithful mare "Ohio," and followed by assistants who came up the river in a canoe loaded with provisions. On his arrival he built a rude log cabin on Oquaga Creek, about five miles west of Deposit, which he called " Castle William," since known as MoClure Settlement. During the sum- mer and fall he surveyed the greater part of Fisher & Norton Patent into lots one mile square. His labors were retarded by lack of provisions, caused by the pumpkin flood. As the winter approached he sent his men back and remained in the wUdemess with no other comjpanion than a faithful dog. His Bible, field-book and diary occupied much of his time ; while the stream, which abounded with trout, furnished his meat. The deprivation of society made the time drag heavily ; and the want of bread and vegetables was keenly felt by him. His appetite failed, and toward spring indications of a fever were apparent. The depth of snow and his weak condition prevented escape. The nearest human habitation was Hyn- back's, on the east side of the river, at the "Cookhouse." His eflforts to overcome his increasing weakness were unavailing, and soon he was unable to go to the brook for water and his accustomed supply of fish. As he lay stretched on his couch of boughs, unable to rise, death seemed the only relief which awaited him. His dog, which staid with him some days, left one morning, and toward night McClure was greeted by its joyous bark- ing, which heralded the coming of Cornelius Hynback, who soon entered the cabin, with stimulants, which he administered to McOlure, whom he found helpless and almost dead. He staid with him until he was euffi- oiently recovered to render it safe to leave him, when he returned for sup- plies, which he brought as often as necessary. Hynback's farm was on elevated ground, so that the flood did not destroy hie crops. The dog had made his way to Hynback's and by his action induced him to suspect that something was wrong at Castle WUliam, and when Hynback started on his journey, the demonstrations of joy made by the dog, which led the way, were of the most extravagant nature. ' sanford: 129 from Chester, New Hampshire. Captain Nathan Dean* and family followed him in 1791, and Squire Whitakerf and fam- i'y in 1797. Among the other early settlers were John Pinney, Anthony West, Luther Hulce, Potter, James P. Apling- ton, John Peters, Simon and Zina Alexander, Alex. Butler, Geo. Pluramer, Moses Farnham, Nathan Austin, Jonas Under- wood, Silas Seward, (the last three were Eevolutionary soldiers) James and Benj. Coburn, Daniel Eace, Noah Carpenter, S. P. Green, Joseph Page, Capt. Parker, Isaac Denton and Dexter May. In 1831 there was not a sufficient number of freeholders in the town to form a jury and a special act was passed constitut- ing any man, a resident, a competent juror. The law is still in force. The 5th of March the following year the first town meeting was held at the house of Wm. McClure.J The following spring McClure. having recovered from the prostration produced by his sickness and hibernation, resumed surveying and con- tinued it two or three years during the warm season, after which, more than satisfied with his monastic experience at Castle William, he returned to Orange county and again occupied himself in teaching. While thus engaged he became acquainted with Miss Sarah Farnham, daughter of . Capt! Elias Farnham, whom, in the early part of the winter of 1791, he married, and pioved to a log house which he erected in November of the previous year, on the site of Castle William, in anticipation of the coming nuptials. Their effects were placed on a light sleigh, to which was hitched his favorite Ohio. McOlure had purchased a large tract of laud (including the site of Castle William,) with the proceeds of his services in surveying. His children were William, David, Henry, Walter, Sally, Thomas, Fanny and Prudence. After the death of his first wife h^maiTied Lydia Austin of Conn. He died at Castle William in 1826, leaving numerous descendants in its vicinity. * Nathan Dean located at Deposit in .Tune, 1791, and purchased that part of the village lying In this county. He died in a few years leaving a widow and five children, viz ; Nathan L., Joshua, Caleb, Zeuas K. and Catharine, (who married James Aplington,) of whom Joshua anc^Zenas still survive. All had families and their descendants chiefly reside in the town. f Squire Whitaker came in April, 1797. The same day that he arrived his daughter Elizabeth was married to Conrad Bdick. This was the tirst marriage in the town. The bride was dressed in linsoy-W(joldey, and the groomiu brown-tow and buckskin moccasins, with stocking aii-iiiituni. The ceremony was performed by a Baptist missionary named How. Mr. Whitaker and family were at Wyoming at the time of the massacre. He was taken prisoner In Fort Jenkins, but was released and, with his family, fled over the mouutains, enduring severe hardships, and reached his former home in Orange Co. tAt that meeting was elected the following named officers: ' Wm. i.icClare, Supervisor ; Joshua Dean, To lu?!.

Until after the Eevolution the east line of the town was the division line between the Indians and the King, and was called the "property line." The growth of the town has leen gradual but constant, and it is now one of the wealthiest in the County. The first saw mill was built in 1791 and the first grist mill in 1793, by Capt. Dean, who also opened the first store and kept the first inn in 1794. The first store in Deposit was built by Benj. and Peter Gardner, in 1795, where Vail's brick store now stands, near the Oquaga House. It was stocked with eight sleigh loads' of goods which were brought from New York. The men and teams put up at Capt. Dean's. The first death was that of Stephen Whitaker, which occurred Oct. 23, 1793, in which year the first school was taught by Hugh Compton. The Deposit Baptist Church was organized as the First Bap- tist Church of Tompkins, with fourteen members, March 7, 1813. The first house of worship was erected in 1837-8 and was burned down in 1851 ; the second one was blown down while being repaired in 1866 ; and the present one, which will seat 450 persons, was erected in 1866-7, at a cost of $9,000.

It covers an area of 30,873i acres, of which, in 1865, according to the census 136 VNION. of that year, 16,510}, were improved. In the north the surface is hilly and the soil a rich slaty and gravelly loam, while in the south is the intervale of the Susquehanna with its fertile alluvium. The hills admit of tillage to their summits. It is watered by the Susquehanna River, which forms the southern boundary, and Nanticoke, Patterson and Little Ohoconut creeks, all of which are tributary to the Susquehanna.

AsHERT Corners, located on the east line, south of the cen- ter, contains a school house, a wagon shop, a blacksmith shop, a grocery and harness shop and about twenty houses. f Permanent settlements were commenced in 1785 by Joseph Draper, who located at Union Village; Nathan Howard, from New London, Conn., and Jabez Winchop, an exborter, at Hooper, and Bryan Stoddard, near Hooper, who were squatters on the land purchased the next year by Joshua Mersereau ; Nehemiah Crawford, a squatter, who settled one mile east of Hooper ; Winthrop Eoe and Bitch, who settled at the mouth of Nanticoke Creek; Gen. Oringh Stoddard, one of the Commissioners appointed by the Boston Company to treat with the Indians, who settled one mile east of Hooper ; and Lewie Keeler,! from Norwalk, Conn., a tailor by occupation, who lived * The Union Center Hand-Rake Manufactory, (Barzilla Howard, pro- prietor,) produces about 20,000 rakes per annum. ■ + In addition to the business interests already noted are the following, which are removed from the business centers : Wells & Brigham's bricTi- yard, located in the east part, uses three machines for pressed and com- mon brick, gives employment to fifty men and manufactures from four million to five million bricks per annum ; the Nanticoke Mill (custom and flouring) (James E. Harrison, proprietor,) located on Nanticoke Creek, about one mile west of UniouVillage, has three runs of stones, with a grind- ing capacity of 400 bushels of grain per day; the Union Hand-Bake Manu- factory, (Aaron Heath, proprietor,) located about one mile south of Union Center, on Nanticoke Creek, produces from 18,000 to 20,000 rakes per an- num ; John C. "Waterman's circular saw mill, located about one mUe south of Union Center, has a capacity for cutting about 400,000 feet of lumber per annum ; Wa/rd's Plaster Mill, (Luke Ward, proprietor,) located at N anti- coke Creek, about two and one-half mUes north of Union, has a capacity for grinding about eleven tons per day — about 300 tons are ground per an- num; the Union Brick Ya/rd, (A. P. Keeler, proprietor,) located about three miles north of Union, does an extensive business. t It is related of Keeler that, in 1793, he went to Conn, to visit his friends and on his way back, a little west of Deposit, he fell in company with a woman, on horseback, who was going to Lisle to visit her brother and cousin and invest a few hundred dollars she had in lands. They were soon on such good terms that he mounted the horse beside her and before reach- ing Binghamton they were engaged to be married, and accordingly, the 138 UNION. with Gen. Stoddard. But this locality was perhaps first visited with a view to settlement, by Col. Hooper, the patentee of the tract bearing his name, who was sent by Bingham, Cox, and, it may be, others, to survey the shores of this part of the Susque- hanna. He traversed it up and down, in an Indian canoe, managed by a faithful Indian whom he employed. He would lie down in the canoe, with an Indian blanket thrown over him, and take the courses and distances with a pocket compass, in this incumbent position. He took this pre- caution through fear of being shot by Indians on the shore.* Jeremiah and Benjamin Brown also located near Hooper, in 1785. The following year came Joshua Mersereau,f from next day, they were married at Blnghamton, about one mile above which place they settled. Keeler was afterwards sheriff of Tioga Co. He built the first house, except the old ferry-house, at Binghamton, and kept the first hotel there. * Annals of Binghamton, p. 95. + Joshua Mersereau was a native of France and, in company with his father, fled to this country during the French Persecution, and settled on Staten Island. He was then a young man, and by occupation a ship car- penter. During the Revolutionary war he was appointed a Major by Gen. Washington, who, afterwards discovering that he was a better business man than soldier, changed the appointment to Commissary General for the exchange of prisoners and Quartermaster General of the Continental army, which office he fiUed till the close of the war. He was an intimate friend of Washington's and his house was frequently honored by the pres- ence of the latter. After the close of the war he was elected member pf Assembly, which office he filled till 1784, when he moved to UnadiUa (Otsego Co.) While residing there he was nominated for State Senator in opposition to Judge Wm. Cooper, of Cooperstown, by whom he was de- feated by one vote. From there he -moved to Union. At that time there were but few settlers in this section of country. There was one house at Binghamton, in which lived a man named Lyons. Joshua and WiUiam Whitney lived a little north of Binghamton ; and one or two persons were living at Campville, Tioga county. Mr. Mersereau was commissioned to survey the Hooper, Wilson and Bingham patents, and received for that service a farm of 300 acres, located at Hooper. He named the County, also the town of Union. He was the first j udge of the County and filled the office of First Judge tUl his death in June, 1804. Statement of Lawrence Mersereau, third son of Joshua Mersereau, who came here with his father, in his fourteenth year. He is now in his hun- dredtt year. Lawrence enlisted at the age of fourteen and was com- missioned as ensign. Gov. Lewis gave him a Captain's commission. He fiUed the two offices ten years. Any soldier, he says, worth $250, was en- titled to vote, and in order to enable him to vote for Washington, for the second term to the Presidency, his father gave him five acres of fine land. He enjoyed good health, retained all his mental faculties and transacted ' all his business until the Thanksgiving of 1870, when he was attacked with a s^evere fit of sickness, which somewhat impaired his mental faculties. So vigorous was he previous to his sickness that, in 1886, he climbed his apple trees and picked the fruit. He converses freely and has a retentive memory. His father and his father's brother, John Mersereau, originated the first line of stages which ran between New York and Philadelphia. Lawrence frequently accompanied them on their trips and he recollects riding in the stage with Washington several times. He says, at one time Washington was expected to take dinner at the house of his father, who sent him to catch some black fish, of which Washington was particularly fond. He went, as he supposed, according to his father's directions, but returned UNION. 139 Staten Island, who settled at Hooper, Oliver Crocker,* (whose father was one of the sixty proprietors of the Boston Purchase, and preceded him a short time,) who came "with his pack upon his back" and settled about two miles east of Hooper, on lot 208 of Chenango Township. A Mr. Gallop was a tem- porary settler at Union as early as 1787, but at what date he came or how long he remained we have not learned. Walter Sabin settled at Hooper about 1788, and kept the first school in the town. John Mersereau, brother of Joshua, came in 1793, and settled first on the south side of the river, in Vestal, but afterwards moved to the north side. His purchase em- braced the site of Union Village. The same year came Abner Rockwell, who settled near Union Center ; Elnathan Norton, from Stockbridge, Conn., who settled three miles east of Union Center, where he lived a few years, when he moved to Union Center and kept a tavern ; and Medad Bradley, from Berkshire Co., Mass., who settled at Union Center. Elisha B. Bradley, also from Berkshire Co., Mass., came in 1793; Isaac N. Martin, from Berkshire Co., Mass., came in about this time, perhaps a little earlier. Henry Richards, from Wyoming Flats, Penn., settled soon after. Oliver Crocker, on the farm east of his, which he bought of Amos Draper. Ezekiel Crocker Jr.,f without having caught any. His father whipped him, and having again instructed him where to go, sent himj a second time. He returned with seven fine fish in due time for the feast. Lawrence lived on the old farm at Hooper until 1837, when he moved to Union Village. * Crocker was from Richmond, Berkshire Co., Mass. The year previous to his settling in Union (1785) he worked lands on shares, as a tenant, with Gen. Joshua Whitney, and saved from his summer's earnings $100, with which he purchased 400 acres of land in this town. He was appointed, by his father, agent for the sale of lands in New York. He frequently went to that city, always on foot, and, to make the trip pay, he brought back with him goods to sell to the settlers. "While returning on one occasion he procured, by permission, from a cider mill in N. J., which he passed, a half bushel of apple seeds, which he stayed there long enough to dry and pack in his knapsack. A portion of these seeds he planted on his farm here, and the rest he took to Genoa, (Cayuga Co.) where he had purchased 1250 acres of land, and commenced the second mirsery in Cayuga Co. He built a hotel on his farm here in 1800, where a public house was kept for many years. It was one of the first kept In the town. " WhUe employed in clearing his land he lived, he says, for a length of time upon roots and 'beech lea/ves. He boarded, or rather tarried by night, with William Ed- minster and his family, who were driven to nearly the same straits. They were relieved, in gome degree, by a scanty supply of cucumbers, and still later by a deer or two. As young Crocker assisted in shooting the deer, so he shared in eating them. He says that while reduced to these extrem- ities for food, he would become bo faint at his work that he would scarce- ly be able to swing his ax." + Mr. Crocker lived here but a short time. His dead body was found in the Chenango River, into which he is supposed to have fallen from his canoe. He had lent his own, large canoe to a neighbor to go to mUl and taken in exchange (temporarily) two smaller ones, which he tried to make answer his purpose. When last seen he was standing with a foot in each boat. 140 ' UNION. second son of Ezekiel Crocker, was an early settler near Little Choconut Creek. Amos Patterson was an early settler in the east part of the town, on the Allen farm. Eowland Davis, from Mass., came in in 1794. He worked a farm with Oliver Crocker for two years, after which he bought a farm about one mile north of Hooper, on which he resided till his death, in 1841. Until 1791, in which year James Eoss and Jabez Winchop built the first grist mill, the nearest milling facilities were at Tioga Point, and thither the early settlers carried their grists. It was a common practice among them, however, to grind a portion of their corn by means of a hollowed-out stump and a pestle suspended from a spring-pole, the whole so constructed that when the pestle was borne down upon the corn the pole caused! it to recede again when the downward pressure was re- moved. The first death was that of Mary J. Fisk, June 13, 1789 ; the first birth that of Joseph Chambers, July 4, 1790. Jabez Winchop opened the first tavern in 1791. Several Indians had temporary huts near the river, which they occupied more or less for several years after the country was settled. They had a means of obtaining salt which the whites never discovered. They crossed the mountain about opposite Judge Mersereau's, on the south side of the river, and, after an absence of about twelve hours, returned with a kettle of salt, which, immediately on their return, was warm. So cautious were they of revealing the source whence they ob- tained their supply of salt that all efforts of the early settlers to discover it proved unavailing. John D. Mersereau relates that, when a lad, his father and himself endeavored to follow the Indians when it was known they had set out for salt; but they soon appeared to suspect they were watched and either re- mained where they were, or turned from their course. Never more than two sat out upon the expedition.* This town furnished 176 men for the army during the war of the Eebellion.f * Annals of Binghamton, p. 104. + The following is a list of casualties which occurred among them : Charles Langdon, private of the 50th Engineers, died of camp fever at Washington, July 2, 1864.

The value of Church property is $18,000. The Grace Church of Union, (Episcopal) located at Union village, was organized with five members, in February, 1871, and the following April Rev. J. E. Battle became its first pas- tor, though services were conducted by Eev. Wm. A. Hitch- cock, rector of Christ Church, Binghamton, in Nov. 1870, and are still continued by him one each week, in the absence of any settled pastor. A church edifice, which, when completed, is to cost about $4,000, is now in process of erection. The Society numbers eighteen communicants. YJESTAL was formed from Union, January 33, 1833.* It is the south-west corner town of the County, and covers an area of 33,983 acres, of which, in 1865, according to the census of that year, 13,746,. were improved. The surface formation re- sembles that of Union, though the relative position of hills and vales is reversed. The south is hilly, while the north part is covered by the intervale of the Susquehanna. The soil is of a good quality. The fine slaty loam on the hills, which are cultivated to their summits, and the deep rich alluvium of the valleys adapt it both to grain culture and grazing. It is wa- tered principally by the Big Choconut and Tracy creeks, which flow north, the former through the central and the latter through the western part of the town, and empty into the Sus- quehanna River, which forms the north border of the town. In 1870 the population of the town was 3,331. During the year ending Sept. 30, 1871, there were seventeen school dis- tricts and the same number of teachers employed. The num- ber of children of school age was 774 ; the number attending school, 639 ; the average attendance, 303 ; the amount expend- ed for school purposes, $3,899; and the value of school houses and sites, $6,490. Vestal, (p. v.) situated near to and east of the mouth of Big Choconut Creek, contains one church, one store, a wagon shop and about twenty-five houses. Vestal Center (p. v.) is situated on the Big Choconut Creek, a little south of the center of the town, and four miles east of Tracy Creek village. * The first town meeting was held at the house of J. Rounds, Feb. H, 1823, and the following named officers were elected : Samuel Murdock, Supervisor; David Merserau, Town Clerk; Daniel Mersereau, James Brewster and Nathan Barney, Assessors cmd Commissioners; John Lay- ton and Elias Morse, Poormasters ; Nathaniel Benjamin, Collector; Na- thaniel Benjamin and Ephraim Potts, Constables. VESTAL. 143 Teact Creek, (p. t.) situated on the creek whose name it bears, west of the center of the town, and six miles south-west of Vestal, is a thriving village containing one church, (M. E.) and another (E. M.) which is in process of erection, a saw mill,* a planing mill, a wagon shop, a cooper shop, two blacksmith shops, one harness shop, two shoe shops, a tannery, a store and about thirty houses. The tannery of which Messrs. J. & W. Clark are proprietors, located in this town, about two miles south .of Union village, contains thirty-six vats and four leaches, consumes six hun- dred cords of hemlock bark, gives employment to thirteen men and has facilities for tanning one hundred thousand sheep skins. The motive power is furnished by a thirty-five-horse power engine. This section of country is not known to have been trod by the foot of a white man previous to Gen. Sullivan's expedition against the Indians of this State in 1779.f It remained in its pristine wildness until 1785, in which year the settlement of the town was commenced by Col.Samuel Seymour, who located in the extreme north-west corner, and Daniel Seymour, his brother. Major David Barney came down the river from Cooperstown, in a canoe, with a large family of children. The canoe upset while they were on the way, but the children were saved. Daniel Price and Ruggles Winchel settled about four miles back from the main road. Two years later, in 1787, Col. Asa Camp, an emigrant from Columbia county, settled on the LaGrange homestead, where he lived several years. Col. Camp served during the Eevolution, in the capacity of Sergeant, with bravery and distinction, though the military title by which he was known was acquired in after life. He witnessed the execu- * The Tracy Week Steam Saw Mill was erected in 1889, by the present proprietors, Messrs. Noyes & Bullools. It gives employment to six men and is capacitated to cut 8,000 feet of lumber per day. + Skirmishes occurred in this vicinity between the Indians and a detach- ment of Gen. Sullivan's forces, composed of Gren. Clinton's troops, which were moving to form a junction with Sullivan's, and a small portion of Sullivan's, which had been detached to ascertain the whereabouts of Clin- ton's forces, and were returning with the latter to join the main body at Tioga Point. Cannon balls, supposed to have been thrown from their can- non, have been found south of the river, a little east of Hooper; and on the farm of John D. Mersereau, north of the river, (in Union) and east of Union village, were, at a recent date, to be seen traces of an Indian fort, which, according to tradition, was thrown up at that time. Evident marks of musket shot upon the trees near the shore here were visible when the country was first settled. The most considerable skirmish occurred on what is called Bound Hill, which lies at the south-west corner of the cor- poration of Union village, where, it appears, the Indians collected in con- siderable numbers, encouraged, no doubt, by the small detachment of Sullivan's troops which were observed to pass up the river to meet those under Clinton. The large force which returned soon caused the Indians to make a precipitate retreat. 144 7BSTA.L. tion of the ill-starred Maj. Andre, whose grave he helped to dig. John Mersereau settled about three-fourths of a mile above the bridge at Union in 1793, but soon moved across the river into Union, as stated in the history of that town. John LaGrange settled at an early day, though the pre- cise date is not known. He came, when quite young, from Elizabethtown, N. J., and purchased lands of his uncle, Judge Mersereau, opposite to whom he settled.* John Pair- b.rother came in 1796, and settled about a mile south of Vestal Center. That part of the country, says his son, who is now in his 78th year, was wild and inhabited only by Indians and wild beasts. Ohoconut Creek abounded with panthers. Mr. Fair- brother dug the first cellar in Binghamton. He was from England and his son, our informant, was born on the ocean, he being two years old when his father came here. Stephen Piatt settled near Vestal in 1800. Wm. Potts settled near the bridge at Union in 1803 ; and Wm. Garrison the first settler on Tracy Creek, settled about two miles below Tracy Creek village. The first inn was kept by Samuel Coe, in 1791 ; the first grist mill was built by E. Winchell, in 1786; and the first school was taught by John Boutch, in 1793. The Methodist at Vestal was the first Church organization in the town. The First Reformed Methodist Church, located near Tracy Creek village, was organized with twenty members, about 1820, by Rev. Winthrop Collins, its first pastor. Previous to its organi- zation meetings were held by Elder Buckley of Apalachin Creek, Tioga Co., and others of this denomination, which resulted in the formation of this Society. The church edifice, which will seat 400 persons, was erected in 1832, at a cost of $1,000, which is one-half the present value of Church property. It has been several times repaired. There are sixty-eight mem- bers, who are ministered to by Rev. Henry Cole. The Baptist Church at Vestal Center was organized with twenty-one members, by Rev. James Clark, Dec. 16, 1834. The first pastor was Rev. Charles G. Swan; the present one is Rev. John Phelps. The number of members is fifty-nine. The house of worship was erected in 1853, at a cost of 12,000. It will seat 200 persons. The Church property is valued at $5,000. * " When he came," says WiLkinson, in the Arvnals of Binghcnnton, " he was unacquainted with a wooden country, and even with farming. So that his partial success for a length of time, and his frequent irritations, from want of more experience, as well as the unpropitioua aspect of a newly settled country, induced hica many times to wish that he had stayed where the elements around him were less at variance with his knowledge and habits. His wife, however, would bear up his courage, or pleasantly ridi- cule his little vexations." TESTAl^WINDSOS. 145 The First Reformed Methodist Church, at Tracy Creek, was organized with thirteen members, by Joseph Ohidester, in 1841, in which year the first church edifice, with a capacity to seat 200 persons, was erected at a cost of $500. The first pas- tor was Elder Lake; the present one is Elder Cole. There are 100 members. The Church property is valued at $200. The Bef armed Methodist Church, at Tracy Creek, was organ- ized Dec. 30, 1860, by Rev. Daniel D. Brown, its first pastor. The first house of worship was erected in 1870. A new one ia in process of erection, which is to be completed in October, 1872. There are forty-eight members. The pastor is Eev. Henry Cole. The M. E. Church of Tracy Creek was organized with twenty- five members in March, 1871, and its house of worship, which will seat 200 persons, was completed in December of the same year, at a cost of $2,500, which is the present value of Church property. Rev. S. W. Lindsley was the first pastor; Eev. J. D. Bloodgood is the present one. The number of members hak not increased. WINnSOR was formed from Chenango, March 27, 1807. Colesville and Sanford were taken ofl" April 2, 1821, and a part of Conklin, in 1851. A part of Conklin was annexed April 18, 1831. It is one of the southern tier towns, lying east of the center of the County. It covers an area "of 51,997 acres, of which, in 1865, according to the census of that year, 23,790, were improved. The surface consists princi- pally of two elevated ridges, which are separated by the narrow valley of the Susquehanna. The hills in the eastern range attain an. altitude of from 400 to 800 feet above the valley, and terminate in several sharp ridges ; while those in the western range, though being generally less elevated rise in some instances to an equal height. Oquaga Hill, in the north-east part, is one of the highest peaks in town. The declivities of the hills are generally quite abrupt. About two-thirds of the town — the western- and central portions — lie within the gi-eat bend of the Susquehanna, by which river and its tributaries (Ok- kanum, Red and Tuscarora creeks) it is watered. The soil in the valleys of these streams is a deep, rich, gravelly loam ; and on the hills it consists of a gravelly loam underlaid by clay and hard-pan. The Delaware & Hudson Canal Co.'s railroad passes through the town following the general course of the river; and the Erie E. R. crosses the south-east corner. These, with the river, furnish ample facilities for the transportation of the products of the farm, dairy and mill. 146 WINDSOB. In 1870 the town had a population of 3,958. During tte year ending Sept. 30, 1871, it contained twenty-two school dis- tricts and employed twenty-three teachers.

Windsor,f says Wilkinson, " appears to have been a half-way resting place for the ' Six Nations,' as they passed south to Wyoming or its neighborhood; or for the tribes of the Wyoming valley as they passed north. Their path over the Oquago mountain, and also over a mountain this side, nearer the village, [Binghamton] was worn very deep, and is still plainly visible." The mountain referred to in the quota- tion, extends on both sides of the river, towards which, on either side, it has a gentle slope, and incloses a beautiful vale from three to four miles in length and from one to one and one- half miles in width. The route pursued by the Indians was also the one followed by many of the early New England settlers to reach their western homes. " That portion of Gen. Clinton's army, not embarlied in the boats, at the time of his inroad against the Iroquois of [this] valley in 1779, took the same course from river to river ; and in 1785 a portion of James * The place derives Its name from a family named Hazard, five brothers of whom (Hiram, Edward, John B., 0.> P. and S.

Fifteen persons from this School District entered the army during the ■ war of the Rebellion, only seven of whom returned. + Windsor was formerly known as Oquaga. The latter name is variously written, but the orthography here given is that generally accepted by modern writers. In a letter from Rev. John Ogilvie, a missionary to the Indians at this place, -to Sir Wm. Johnson, dated Albany, May 14, 1756, as appears in Doc. Hist. Vol. IV, page 302, it is written "Onogquaga;" in a letter from Rev. Dr. Wheelook, also to Johnson, dated at Lebanon, Oct. 2A, 1764, on page 342 of the work before quoted, it is written "Onoquagee," and in an editorial foot note on the same page of the same work, " On- ohoghquage ;" in the report of Rev. G-ideon Hawley's journey to this place in 1753, Doc. Hist. Vol. lU, page 1033, it is written " Onohoghgwage;" and says C. P. Avery, in an article on The Susquehanna Valley which appears in The Saint Nicholas for March, 1854, it was written by the early mis- sionaries " Onuh-huh-guah-geh," and is so pronounced by some of the Iroquois now in Canada, and, he says, "upon the early map," it appears as " O-nogh-qua-gy." Officially, at the present day, the name of the post- office at Oquaga, in the south part of the town of ColesviUe, from which this is sometimes distinguished by the prefix old, is spelled " Ouaquaga." 148 WINDS OS. McMaster's pioneer company from the Mohawk crossed from that point over the same ground which their Indian prede- cessors with their intimate knowledge of the geographical fea- tures of the country, had so long before, with intuitive wood- land sagacity, pronounced feasible."* " The evidence we have," says Wilkinson, in the Annals of Binghamton, " of its great an- tiquity, and of its distinction at some date or other, is from the numerous and valuable trinkets that were found by the whites when they came to dig and plow upon its plains. The apple trees also found growing there, of great size, and of apparently great age; their number, too, and the variety and richness of the fruit ; all indicated the antiquity and importance of the place. A great number of human bones from various depths below the surface, were thrown up from time to time. Some of these were of peculiar formation. A scull was found with the lower jaw attached to it, which had an entire double row of teeth ; a single row above, but all double teeth." Remains of a fort, constructed to meet the enemy from the river, were dis- cernible to the first settlers ; and as they presented indications of its recent construction the impression prevailed that it was built when Gen. Clinton passed down the river. This, however, seems improbable, since the Indians did not offer any resist- ance to him or even show themselves. It is highly probable, (in view of the fact that traces of its existence would, at that early day, require much more time for their obliteration, than under the attrition of the present comparatively thickly populated country in its vicinity,) that it was constructed at a much earlier day, and quite possibly during the French and Indian war, as we fi.nd mention of a fort which it was then contemplated to erect at this plaqe, and expressions of fear that opposition would be made to the project which would render it diificult to pro- cure workmen for that service, in a letter addressed by Rev. John Ogilvie to Sir Wm. Johnson under date of May 14, 1756. f The object of erecting this forbwas doubtless to aiford protection to and extend the missionary labors in this section, which were instituted about the middle of the last century. The Indians of Oquaga were religiously disposed and were among the first to avail themselves of the advantages of the Indian School instituted at Stockbridge at a very early day. They are sup^ posed for this reason to have belonged to the Iroquois, who were distinguished for their deep interest in religious matters. A large number of them went to Stockbridge while Jonathan * The, Saint Nicholas, March, 1854. + Doc. Hist. Vol. rv, 302. WINDSOB. 149 Edwards,* who was afterwards president of Princeton College, was a missionary there, and were commended to him by the sachems of the Mohawks, in council, as being worthy of pecu- liar tenderness and care, since, as they ingenuously admitted, the Oquagas "much excelled their own tribe in religion and virtue." Accordingly Mr. Edwards interested himself in their behalf and secured for them a missionary in the person of Rev. Gideon Hawley, who, in company with Timothy Woodbridge and Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Ashley,f the latter of whom went in the capacity of interpreter, Tisited Oquaga in 1753, and Haw- ley remained there until the breaking out of the French war, when he was admonished that it was unsafe to remain longer, his companions having previously returned. Mr. Hawley thus describes Ms reception at Oquaga; "June 4tli. [1753] In the afternoon appeared at a distance Onohogh- gwage mountain, and shewed us the end of our journey and the object of our wishes. It rained. Wet and fatigued, we arrived near night. The Indians flocked around us, and made us welcome. Our hopes were raised by favorable appearances. But om' accommodations, considering our fatigues, were not very comfortable. Our lodgings were bad, being both dirty and hard; and our clothes wet. " June 5th. To-day there were many the worse for the rum that came with us. One of our horses hurt an Indian boy; and this raised and enraged such a party against us, as Ashley, his wife the interpreter, and the Indians at whose house we lodged, hid themselves, and would have me and Mr. "Woodbridge get out of sight; but we did not think proper to dis- cover the least symptoms of fear, although they threatened us in the most provoking and insulting manner. In the afternoon came the chiefs of the Onohoghgwages, and assured us that those insulting and Ul-behavad * About one year previous to Mr. Hawley's visit to Oquaga Mr. Edwards sent his son, Jonathan, there to learn the Indian larfguase, with a view to preparing him for the Indian missionary service. He was then nine years old. At the commencement of the French war, the Indian, to whose special care he was entrusted, conveyed him safely to his lather, carrying him at intervals upon his back. This lad subsequently became president of Union College, Schenectady, succeeding Rev. John Blair Smith, its first President, in 1799, and held the office until his death in August, 1801. + The services of Mr. Ashley, it appears, were not needed, and, in the opinion of Mr. Hawley, had better been dispensed with, since, he says, "he was a lanatick, and on that account unfit to be employed in the mission." The services of Mrs. Ashley, who, says Mr. Hawley, " was a very good sort of woman, and an extraordinary interpreter of the Iroquois language," were indispensable, and as they could not be obtained without the employ- ment of her husband, the mission were obliged to accept the unwelcome alternative. Writing of Mrs. Ashley, Mr. Hawley says : " Rebecca, mj interpreter, laid her bones at Onohoghgwage in August 1757. She was much lamented by the Indians. Her Indian name was Wausaunia."— Doe. Hist. Vol. III. 1037-8. 150 WINDSOB. Indians did not belong to them,* but were foreigners. "We pointed out to tbem the ill effects of intemperance, and remonstrated against their per- mitting rum to be brought among them ; and that it was necessary in future it should be prohibited, or the dispensing of it regulated, in case we founded a mission and planted Christianity among them. In short, we now opened a treaty with them upon the affairs of our advept, and the importance of our business in every view. Having shewn our credentials, Mr. Woodbridge addressed himself in a well adapted speech of consider- able length, to an assembly who were collected upon the occasion. "It affected them, and they appeared to be religiously moved, convicted and even converted." The war with all its pernicious influences does not seem to have eradicated from the minds of these aborigines their re- ligious predilections. Oquaga was also a noted rendezvous of Tories and Indians during the Eevolution. John Doolittle, who settled on the west side of the Susque- hanna, about four miles above the bridge, in 1786, is believed to be the first white man to make a permanent settlement in this town. In 1787 came David Hotchkiss and his two sons, Am- raphael and Cyrus. They settled on the west of the river, a little below the bridge. Hotchkiss took up a large tract of land, on both sides of the river, purchasing only the possession of a Mr. Swift, who^ came the same year. This was a little be- fore the land was patented, or at least before the patentees were known to the settlers. John Gurnsey, who also came in 1787, took up a patent of 1,000 acres, next south of Hotchkiss' tract. This he left to his sons, of whom there were many, and all of whom left it. North of this, on the river, was the Ellis patent, which embraced the land taken by Mr. Hotchkiss. It consisted of seventeen lots of two hundred acres each, of which Mr. Hotchkiss took ten. Mr. Hotchkiss was the first magis- trate appointed in the place. It is related of him that he was very g;enerou8 and that often, in times of scarcity, he refused to sell his grain to those who had money, preferring rather to supply those who had none. Settlements were made in con- siderable numbers during the succeeding years, principally by persons from Connecticut. Among these was Major Josiah Stow, from Danbury, Conn., on whose lands were a large num- ber of the ancient apple trees previously mentioned. It was the opinion of the first settlers that they were one hundred years * " This was partly the case." This statement seems oonflrmed and the general good character of these Indians substantiated by an address delivered by them to Mr. Wood- bridge, to be, by him, submitted to Col. Wm. Johnson, which in substance implored the latter gentleman to intercede for them with " the great men of Albany, Skeneotetee and Skoharry," and implore them not to send them any more rum, which, they said, " has undone us." — See Doc. Hist. Vol. XI. 627. WINDSOR. 151 old at the time of their settlement. Some of the apples, says Wilkinson, were large enough to weigh a pound. The trees stood irregularly and their trunks ran up very high, with few or no limbs for some distance from the ground, thus indicating that they grew in a forest. The large number of human bones plowed up in after years beneath these trees led to the supposi- tion that this was tha place of sepulcher for the Indian dead.* Samuel Stow came in 1793. In August, about the year 1794, occurred the "pumpkin freshet." The water in the Susque- hanna rose much above its usual height and swept away in its torrent the products of the fields along its banks. A great scarcity of provisions was the natural consequence. During this period the characteristic generosity and hardihood of Major Stow manifested itself. He shouldered a bushel of wheat, in which the whole neighborhood had a share, and with it started to Bennett's mills, via Wattles ferry, a distance of more than forty miles, to get it ground. He performed the journey on foot, and returned in the same manner. During the journey he purchased a quartar of a pound of tea, a luxury to which those early settlers were then entirely unaccustomed, to supple- ment the feast which his return was to inaugurate. On the Major's arrival the company assembled at his house and active preparations were soon begun to complete the arrangements for a sumptuous feast, in which all were to participate. A short- cake was made from the flour, and as no lard was to be had, the Major bethought himself of some bear's grease he had in the house, which was used as a substitute therefor. As tea was a new article in their bill of fare they did not possess the usual conveniences for preparing and serving it A small kettle was procured and made to serve the purposes of both tea-kettle and * Since the Indians are known to have sbown a respect, amounting al- most to reverence, for the resting places of their dead, the following in- cident, the substance of which we extract from the A.nnals of Bingham- ton, lends credibility to the Buppoaition. In the early part of his residence here Maj. Stow, one evening, observed an Indian girdling one of these trees with a hatchet. He remonstrated with him, but as the Indian's reply was made in his own (iialect, the Ma- jor could only glean from it the word "Sullivan," which the Indian re- peated several times. As the savage continued his onslaught upon the tree, Mr. Stow commanded him to desist, but as his command was disrer garded he reiterated it and threatened to shoot him with the rifle He held in his hand unless he relinquished his project of destroying the tree. The Indian seemed aware of the unwavering purpose of the Major and glanced furtively at his own rifle which lay near him upon the ground ; but evi- dently deeming his chances in the event of a collision unequal, he sullenly and reluctantly repaired to his canoe and pursued his way down the river. Undoubtedly the Indian had come with the intention of girdling the trees of whose fruit his own tribe had, perhaps, eaten for haU a century or more, but which had fallen into the possession of strangers and enemies, who. he imagined, desecrated by their presence the resting-place of his fathers. 153 WINDSOR. tea-pot. Instead of tea-cups and saucers a wooden bowl was filled with the savory beverage and passed around in a cosmo- politan, if inelegant way. But who shall contrast with dispar- agement to the former the social cheer which prevailed at that feast, with that which is evoked by similar gatherings in mod- ern times. Until II'O?, when Nathan Lane built the first grist mill in the town, the settlers were obliged, at first, to go more than forty miles with their grists to mill, but somewhat later, and previous to the erection of Lane's mill, one was built about ten miles east of Deposit, which lessened the distance about one- half. Shortly previous, or soon after, (which the memory of old residents does not satisfactorily determine,) the erection of the saw mill by Mr. Lane, the same year in which his grist mill was built, a saw mill was built by Mr. Doolittle. Am- raphael Hotchkiss btiilt the first mills upon the Susquehanna.* David Hotchkiss built the first frame barn. Frederick Goodell was an early settler. He came from Conn., in 1787, and settled about three miles above Windsor, on the river. In 1798 he moved to that part of the town known as Randolph, which was then a wilderness, and cleared a farm and raised a family, some of whom still reside in the town. Lyman and Henry Beebe came with their father from Wilkesbarre, Penn., May 9, 1803, and settled on the Susque- hanna about one mile north of the State line. Lyman Beebe was five years old the day on which he moved into the town. He has since resided within a mile pf his present residence. Luman Blatchley came with his son, Neri, and two daughters from Conn., in 1806, and located at Kandolph. Soon after his brother, Daniel Blatchley Jr., settled at Hazardville. Jehiel Woodruff was one of the first settlers in the west part of the town. He came with a family of six children, (three of whom still live in the town,) from Long Island, in 1811. On the Eandolph hills, around Oqnaga, were extensive groves of locusts, so valuable in ship building. Great quantities of this timber were carried to Deposit and thence conveyed in rafts down the Delaware to Philadelphia., The Eandolph hills locust had a high reputation, and was found in many of the ' principal sea-ports east of Philadelphia.! The first birth in the town was that of David Doolittle, Dec. 27, 1786 ; the first marriage, that of Capt. Andrew Eng- lish and Miss Rachel Moore; and the first death, that of Mrs. Ashley, the interpreter accompanying Rev.

The first death among the permanent settlers was probably that of Mrs. Ehoda Goodell, wife of Frederick Goodell, in 1803.* Josiah Stow opened the first inn and store, in 1788; and Stephen Seymour taught the first school in 1789. The first settlement at Eandolph Center was made by Capt. Samuel Rexford, and family, in 1782. He settled on one hundred acres of land given him as an inducement to locate there. He built a log house and covered it with bark, and grappled manfully with the hardships and privations incident to the opening of a new country. Joseph Brown settled there in 1813, and still resides there. Windsor may point with just pride to the record of her par- ticipation in the war of the Rebellion. She did her duty nobly.

In August, 1862, it came north to re-inf orce MoClellan after his defeat near Richmond. It participated, and suffered severely, in the battles of South Mountain and Antietam. At Fredericksburgh, in Dec, 1862, it was among the first to cross the river and captured the sharp shoot- ers who prevented the laying of the pontoons. At Suffolk the 89th crossed the Nansemond and captured a rebel fort, with all its cannon and men. The regiment was with Gen. Dix on the "blackberry raid " at the time of the battle of Gettysburg. It next went to the assistance of Gen. Gilmore, who soon after took Port Waggoner and battered down Sumter. The next spring it returned north and formed a part of Gen. Butler's James River expedition. At Bermuda Hundreds those whose term of service expired were mustered out, while those who re-enlisted in this company, remained with the regiment until it was mustered out.

It lies a little west of the center of the south border of the State, centrally distant 135 miles from Albany, and contains 543 square miles. Its surface is broken by the prolongation of the Allegany Mountains, which extend in a series of ridges northerly through the county, and whose sum- mits attain a nearly uniform elevation of 1,300 to 1,400 feet above tide. These ridges are cut diagonally by the valley of the Susquehanna, and are separated by numerous lateral valleys which extend in a north and south direction and give a great * Tioga is written in Mr. Morgan's worlc, The League of the Iroquois, in the Oneida dialect, Te-ahr-o-ge; the Mohawk, Te-yo-ge-ga; the Cayuga, Da-a-o-ga; and Seneca, Da-j/ei-o-g6?i, meaning "at the forks."

The width of these valleys varies from a few rods to a mile and sometimes more. They are generally defined by steep acclivities which rise from 250 to 400 feet above them, and whose summits are commonly broad and rolling, though occasionally broken and rocky. The rocks of the County belong to the Chemung and Cats- kill groups. All the rocks cropping out upon the surface north of the river, and those underlying the hills south of it, may be classed in the former group ; and those crowning the summits of the hills south of the river, with the latter. Except the sandstone of the Chemung group, which is quarried for flag- ging; the red sandstone of the Catskill group, some of which is sufficiently compact to make good building stone ; and lime- stone, from which lime is manufactured and which is found along the Pennsylvania border, there are no important min- erals. A deep drift, consisting of sand, clay and gravel, lies in the valleys and covers the adjoining hills. This deposit near Factoryville is eighty feet deep, and a wide belt of it seems to extend north, in an almost unbroken line, from that place to Cayuga Lake. The principal streams are Susquehanna* Eiver, and Owego.f Catatunk, Cayuta, Pipe and Apalachin . creeks, with their branches. These streams have, generally, rapid currents, though few waterfalls ; and they furnish all necessary water power for local purpo^s. Their valleys are generally narrow and rocky in their upper courses, but toward the Susquehanna they expand into broad and beautiful level intervales. The Susquehanna enters the county a little south of the cen- ter of the east border of the town of Owego and extends in a south-westerly direction through the south part of the County, * See page 63 for origin of name. + Owego was pronounced by the Indiana who frequented this section, Ah-wah-gah, with the accent on the second syllable. In "Morgan's League" it is spelled ATi-wa-ga, the a in the second syllable being pro- nounced as in the word /ate. Upon Guy Johnson's map of 1771, it is writ- ten O-we-gy ; it is also so written on the map accompanying the treaty of 1768, at Fort Stanwlx; but in the deed of cession, drawn at the same time, , it is spelled Os-we-gy, showing conclusive inaccuracy, probably, in both. By the early settlers it was pronounced O-wa-go, the a beingpronounoed as in fate. In a document of 1791, and letters written in 1799, 1801, and as late as 1805, it is so written. Mrs. Whitaker, who was acquainted with the locality of Owego village during her captivity with the Indians, and be- came a resident in its immediate vicinity previous to, or about the time of the extinguishment of the Indian claim, has given sanction to the last or- thography. It signifies — " Where the valley widens." The narrows, be- low and above upon the river, and also upon the creek, about two miles from its mouth, to which this name was also given, render that meaning peculiarly significant as applied to this extended valley or basin, the outlet to which, on all sides, is through narrow gorges or passes. — 2'h6 Saint Nicholas, March, 1854, p. 411.

Owego Creeh takes its rise by its east branch in Virgil, Cort- land Co., and, its west branch in Dryden, Tompkins Co. The east and west branches flow south, the former centrally through the towns of Richford, (on the north line of which it enters the county) Berkshire and Newark Valley, and across the north- west corner of the town of Owego, to its confluence with the west branch, which enters the county on the north line of Eich- ford, and forms the boundary between that town, Berkshire, Newark Valley and a small portion .of Owego on the east, and Candor and Caroline (Tompkins Co.) on the west. They unite about five miles north of Owego village, and form the boun- dary, below their junction, between the town of Owego to the north line of Owego village and of Owego village to the Sus- quehanna, (into which they empty) on the east and the town of Tioga and a part of the town of Candor, on the west. Catatunk Creek rises in the south part of Tompkins county, enters this county on the north line of Spencer and flows in a south-east direction through that town. Candor, and across the north-east corner of the town of Tioga. It empties into Owego Creek from the west about equi-distant from the mouth of the latter stream and the confluence of its two branches. Cayula Creek rises in Cayuta Lake (Schuyler Co.) and enters this county from Chemung county in the north-west corner of the town of Barton, forming, for a short distance, the boundary between that town and Van Etten, in the latter county, and flowing in a southerly direction through the west part of Bar- ton it leaves the county on the south line of that town a little east of Waverly. Pipe Creek rises in Barton and flowing diagonally across Tioga empties into the Susquehanna at Tioga Center. Apalachin Creek rises in the town of Apalachin, Susquehanna Co., Penn., and flows north through the south-east part of the town of Owego, near the south-east corner of which it enters the county, and empties into the Susquehanna a little' south- east of Apalachin Corners. The soil along the valleys is a deep, rich, gravelly loam, with an occasional intermixture of clay and sand. The intervales along the Susquehanna are especially noted for their fertility. The uplands are gravelly and sandy and moderately fertile. Upon the summits the soil is hard and unproductive, and in 158 TIOOA COUNTY. many places the rocks are entirely bare. A considerable por- tion of the uplands is still oovered with forests. Since the removal of the most valuable timber and the consequent decline of the lumber and tanning business, the attention of the people is mainly directed to agricultural pursuits and a good degree of success is exhibited in its various branches. The cereals and root crops are mostly cultivated on the lowlands, or valleys of the streams, and the uplands are devoted to stock raising, wool growing and dairying. The opening of the railroads has developed considerable commercial interest, and a stronger dis- position to engage in manufacturing enterprises is manifested along the line of these thoroughfages. The County Seat is located at Owego, where, since the erection of Chemung county in 1836, the courts have been held. By the organic act of 1791, Tioga was constituted a half-shire county, and it was provided that courts should be held alter- nately at "Chenango" (now Binghamton) and "Newtown Point" (now Elmira.) Upon the organization of Broome County in 1806, the half-shire was abolished, and in 1811-12 the court house was removed from Elmira to Spencer village, in conformity with the decision of a committee* appointed Feb. 17, 1810, to select a site for a new court house and super- intend the erection of the building. The County was divided into two jury districts June 8, 1812, and the courts were held at Elmira and Spencer.f In 1821 the court house at Spencer was burned, and in 1832, by an act of the Legislature, the half- shire system was re-established and Elmira and Owego were made the half-shire towns. In 1836 Chemung county was erected from ^Tioga, and Elmira then became the county seat of the former county, and Owego, of the latter.^ The court house, a wooden structure, was erected about fifty-two years since, at a cost of 68,000, on ground donated for a public square by James McMaster, the patentee. The jail, jailor's house and barn, all of brick, were built in 1851, at a cost of about $6,000. The jail contains eight double cells. The clerk's office is a fire-proof building, and was erected in 1855, at a cost of $2,200. All these buildings occupy a square in * This committee consisted of Nathaniel Locke, Anson Gary and Samuel Campbell. + The East Jury District embraced the towns of Berkshire, Candor, Caroline, Danby, (the two latter now in Tompkins Co.)

The present court house and clerk's ofiBce being deemed inadequate to satisfactorily meet the re- quirements of the business transacted in them, at a special session of the Board of Supervisors in 1870-71 it was resolved to erect a new court house and clerk's office, on grounds deeded to the County for that purpose by the village of Owego, Feb. 1, 1871, and an appropriation of $30,000 was made for that purpose March 21, 1871.* The Govnly Poor House, a stone building, is located three miles from Owego, upon a farm of sixty-five acres. The num- ber of persons relieved and supported in 1871 was 194, at an average expense per week of $1.64}. The present (July, 1873,) number of inmates is forty. The average number is about 11 fifty. ^ The principal works of internal improvement are the N. Y. & Erie E.

Howes, architect of Owego, were adopted Feb. 3, 1871, and the bid of Messrs. Keeler & Houk, of Owego, for the construction of the building, was accepted March 21, 1871. The latter gentlemen contracted to erect the building according to the original plans and specifications for $55,700. The building is located in the center of the public square. It is built of brick, trimmed with cut Onondaga limestone, in a style of architecture combining the Grecian and modem styles. It is 70 by 90 feet on the ground. The height of the main building is 46 feet. It is inclosed with Mansard roof. There are four lowers, two of which are 120 feet in height, and the other two, 100 feet. It has two main fronts, ornamented with beautiful out stone porticos, one on Main, and the other on Front street. On the lower floor, on the west side of the main hall, are the oflices of the Dis- trict Attorney and Sheriff and the grand jury room ; and on the east side, are the Surrogate's and County Clerk's olBces, the latter being fire-proof. Up stairs are the court room, (48 by 56 feet) ladies' witness room, library and two jury rooms. The contract provides for the completion of the work by Nov. 1, 1873. When finished the building wiU cost about S65,000, and will be an ornament to the village and a credit to those having its construction in charge. +A further description of this road will be found on page 68. tThis road was originally known as the Ithaca & Owego R. B., and was chartered Jan. 28, 1828 — ^the second railroad charter grantad in the State. The road was opened in April, 1834. At Ithaca was an Inclined plane with a rise of one foot in every 4 28-100 feet, up which the cars were drawn by means of a stationary steam engine. Above this was another inclined plane, which rose one foot in twenty-one feet, on which horse power was used. The road was subsequently sold by the Comptroller on stock issued by the State, on which the company failed to pay interest. A new com- pany was organized and the name of Cayuga & Susquehanna R. R. was as- sumed April 18, 1843. The road was reconstructed, the Inclined planes being done away with. In 1852 it was sold for $4,500, the sum of $500,000 having been expended in its construction. Jan. 1, 1855, it was leased to the 160 TIOOA COUNTY. has its northern terminus at Ithaca pier, and enters this County from Tompkins, on the north line of Candor, passing through that town and Tioga to Owego village, where it connects with the Brie road; the Southern Central R.

R., whose name indicates its termini, which enters the county from Tompkins, on the north line of Spencer, and runs south to a little south of Spencer village, where it deflects to the west, and passes into Chemung county, where it again turns south and enters the county at the north- west corner of Barton, passing through that town along the valley of Cayuta Creek, and leaving the county on the south line of that town, at Factoryville. Few counties in the State possess railroad facilities superior, or even equal to those enjoyed by this county. EvSry town in the county except Nichols is traversed by one or more railroads, and that town is in such close proximity to the Erie and Southern Central roads, from which it is separated by the Susquehanna, that the absence of any road is measurably compensated thereby. These roads afford ample facilities for the transportation of the products of the farm and manufactory, and open an inviting field for the pro- secution of mechanical enterprises. There are seven newspapers published in the County, all weeklies. The Owego Gazette was commenced by Judge Stephen Mack, in 1803,* at Owego, as The American Farmer, the first- paper published in Tioga County, and was published on the north side of Front street, near Church. In 1813 it was pur- chased by Hon. Stephen B. Leonard,f who changed its name to that it now bears, and the place of publication to the the north side of Front street, near Paige. Mr. Leonard sub- sequently admitted J. B. Shurtleff as a partner, bujt in what Delaware, Lackawanna & Western R. R. Co., by whom it is stiU operated as the Cayuga Division. This is an important route from the coal mines of Pennsylvania and coal forms the principal item of business. * Dr. C. J.

At this time it was published on the south side of Front street, in the second story of the first building above the bridge crossing the Susquehanna Eiver. In 1841, the ofiice was burned and the paper was soon after continued by Edward P. Marble, "in the second story of Judge Drake's new building, corner of Lake and Front streets." In 1842 it was sold to Thomas Woods, who, in 1843, sold it to Hiram A. Beebe, by whom it was again sold in 1845 to Thomas Pearsall, and by Mr. Pearsall, in 1846, to David Wallis & Son, who kept it one year, when it was again, in 1847, purchased by Mr. Beebe. The offise was again burned in September, 1849, when Mr. Beebe removed the paper to the west side of Ithaca Street, (now North Avenue,) opposite the Tioga House (since demolished.) The premises on Front street were rebuilt by Isaac Lillie, and Mr. Beebe returned to his old location in July, 1850, and remained until May, 1853, when he moved to the third story of the build- ing on the west side of Lake street, owned by T. P. Patch. In January, 1867, Mr. Beebe completed a three-story brick build- ing on the opposite side of the street, (now known as " Gazette Block,") into which he moved and where the paper is now published. August 1, 1871, L. W. Kingman purchased a half interest in the paper, which is now published by the firm of Beebe & Kingman. It is a weekly and in politics has always been Democratic, and generally, as at the present time, has been the only Democratic paper in the county. The Owego Times, weekly, was started as The Owego Adver- tiser in 1835, by Andrew H. Calhoun, who published it until 1853, when he sold it to an association of some twelve persons of Owego, (of whom the present proprietor was one) by whom it was leased for one year to Powell & Barnes, and its name was changed by the latter gentlemen to The Owego Southern Tier Times. In 1854 Wm. Smyth purchased the interest of the other parties comprising the association and changed the name to that it now bears, under which name he conducted it alone until May, 1872, when his son, "Wm. A. Smyth, became a part- ner, since which time it has been published under the firm name of Wm. Smyth & Son. The Tioga Cottntt Eecoed, weekly, was started at Owego, by C. H.

TIOGA COUNTY. 163 New England, the western part was being settled by the same class of people, who had preyiously settled in the beautiful and inviting, but ill-starred valley of. the Wyoming, which they reluctantly left in consequence of the troubles growing out of the Indian hostilities and the conflicting claims of the Connecti- cut and Pennsvlvania governments for the territory it em- braced, by whicli the tenure of their lands was rendered uncer- tain and their occupation unsafe. They fled with dismay and disappointment from the accumulating perils of the home of their choice to accept the little less inviting ones oifered by old Tioga, where at least they were free from the perplexities in which the controversies in regard to titles involved their former homes. The following extract from an article written by C. P. Avery, entitled The Susquehanna Valley, and which appeared in The Saint Nicholas for March, 1854, well illustrates the uncommon ties by which these hardy and heroic pioneers were bound to the Wyoming country. "The 'farewell' to Wyoming must have been painful indeed. She had been not only redeemed from the wilderness by the honest industiy of their fathers, brothers, relatives and neighbors from Connecticut, but enriched by their blood which had flowed freely upon many sanguinary fields. They had stood as a frontier breastwork during the whole of the Revolutipnaiy war against the incursions of the common enemy ; and in that grand carnival of slaughter, of July, 1778, "Wyoming became a Valley of death, and the chivalrous spirits who relinquished all to serve the Re- public, and whose memories the storied monument now perpetuates — thanks to the noble hearted ladies of the valley by whose energy it was reared — were the near relatives or intimate friends of the exiles. The ' farewell ' to Wyoming must have been painful indeed." Wyoming's loss was Tioga's substantial gain. These settlers, undaunted by former reverses, entered with commendable zeal into the transformation of the wilderness into which their lot was cast into broad and fertile farms, assimilating those so re- cently abandoned by them. They have left the impress of their works upon the soil their energy and industry have con- secrated, and of their characters upon the liveg of those who succeed thern. In the eons are discernible the evidences of hardy toil and habits of frugality in which the fathers were nurtured; and no better legacy could be transmitted by parent to child. Evidences of the occupancy of the country comprised within the limits of this County, by the Indians, prior to its settle- ment by the whites, either as favorite hunting grounds, or for long continued residence, are found in the many articles of handicraft and use belonging to them, which have been dis- covered by the plow and other means of excavating. A tree was found by the early settlers at Newark Valley upon the 164 TIOGA COUNTY. blaze of which were painted certain pictures, which were sup- posed to be a means by which the aborigines communicated their ideas, and to belong to their system of picture writing. "One of these figures," says C. P. Ayery, "well remembered by several now living, was an accurate representation of an Indian in full costume for war, facing southerly with tomahawk up- lifted. It was put on in durable black paint, continuing for many years after the valley was first settled. It dated iDack quite probably to the Eevolutionary era, and as was customary with parties upon the war-path, was placed there, not unlikely, to indicate to other bands who might follow, the course which the one in advance pursued. There were other painted mark* and figures upon the same tree which have not been accurately remembered, but very hkely elucidated some important facts connected with the expedition, as to the strength, tribe and des- tination of the party. A specimen of emblematic or picture writing was also found at an early day upon a tree at Choco- nut, somewhat similar in character, but much more complex and enigmatical. Its meaning, even by conjecture, has never yet transpired." On the river plain between Owego and Athens lived a num- ber of Indians for a length of time after its settlement by the whites, who demanded from the latter, for their land, for three or four years after the first settlement, a yearly rent, which they expected to be paid in corn. Their chief was designated Captain John. They maintained a semblance of amity toward the whites, being pleased to have them eat with them and ap- pearing offended with a refusal. When they begged something to eat, instead of expressing their wishes in words, they placed their hand first on their stomach and then to their mouth. It was their custom when attended with ill success to eat a root which created sickness and vomiting, and which, they sup- posed, was efBcacious in restoring them to more auspicious circumstances. A few years after the country was first settled an extensive and serious famine prevailed which was felt most severely in the region of country lying between Owego and Elmira. For six weeks or more the inhabitants were entirely without bread or its kind. The famine occurred immediately before harvest time and was supposed to result from the unusual large num- ber of new settlers, and the great scarcity which prevailed in Wyoming that season. During its prevalency the " people were languid in their movements, irresolute and feeble in what they undertook, emaciated and gaunt in their appearance." Wild beans, which were found in considerable quantities, and the most nutritious roots were substituted for more substantial TIOOA COUNTY. ] 65 food. " As soon as their rye was in the milk, it was seized upon, and by drying it over a moderate fire, until the grain ac- quired some consistency, they were enabled to pound it into a sort of meal, out of which they made mush. This was a very great relief, although the process was tedious, and attended with much waste of grain. In the early part of the scarcity, while there was a possibility of finding grain or flour of any kind abroad, instances were not unfrequent of families tearing up their feather beds and sending away the feathers in exchange for bread. Instances also of individuals riding a whole day and not obtaining a half of a loaf [are cited."] Though none died of hunger during this trying period, two young men died in consequence of eating to excess of green rye.* From this time the section of Susquehanna's beautiful valley embraced within the limits of Tioga attracted many sturdy and active emigrants from the comparative luxury of their eastern homes to grapple with the temporary hardships and privations incident to the settlement of a new country. A steady and healthy growth has been maintained ; and though Tioga can- not point to any gigantic commercial or mechanical enterprise within her borders, she can, with just pride, refer the stranger to the no less gratifying evidences of wealth, prosperity and contentment exhibited by the tillers of the soil, who have sup- plemented nature by improving an already beautiful country and transformed it from its pristine wildness to the productive and attractive farm lands which adorn its gentle slopes. If we do not hear the busy hum of mechanical industry as it greets us in large and populous cities and villages, neither do we see nor deplore the disparaging contrasts between affluence and pov- erty which the latter picture invariably presents. Here all are producers, and the wealth of the country is more uniformly dis- tributed. While few have an excessive abundance of this world's goods, few also are driven to a position of dependency. Founded on this substantial basis of prosperity Tioga's future progress is assured. The excessive stringency of pioneer life was gradually ame- liorated by the introduction of public improvements as the influx of settlers rendered them necessary and possible. Public roads were opened, bridges erected and better means of convey- ance than the early rough state of the country rendered service- able were introduced. Mills were erected by private capital and individual enterprise. These improvements not only vastly mitigated the severities experienced by the early settlers in reclaiming this wilderness to the uses of civilization ; but * Annals of Binghamton. 166 TIOOA COUNTY. tended also to attract to it others who were looking for eligible homes in the west, as this country was then considered. The issuing of the first commission to lay out the road lead- ing from Catskill Landing on the Hudson to the town of Cath- arines, in Tompkins county, but then in Tioga, in 1797, may be considered the first effort at internal improvement directly benefiting this locality. This, with the projection of other avenues of travel by the construction at various times of high- ways and railroads, opened up new sections of the county to immigration. Previous to 1793, in which year Col. Pixley erected his mill at Owego, there was no grist mill in the county. The early settlers of Owego, in 1788, found no mill nearer than Wilkes- barre, Penn.,* and thither they conveyed their grain in canoes down the Susquehanna, until 1790, in which year Jonathan Fitch built his grist mill.f In 1792 Mr. Fitch estabhshed a grist mill at Kanticoke, (Broome Co.) and until 1793, the settlers carried their grists to that point. What a striking contrast is presented between that time and the present! The laborious process of conveying the products of the farm to the mill or market by means of canoes, or over roads, whose pas- sage at the present day would be pronounced impracticable, is now unknown. The agents which the genius of man has made subservient to his use do the work in less time than was for- merly necessary to make preparation for the journey, which occupied, not unfrequently, two or more weeks. A good index of comparative values is found in the prices of real estate at certain periods, and as this indicates with a good degree of certainty, the degree of prosperity which any particular locality has enjoyed, we append the following copy of the first deed recorded in the Clerk's office of Tioga county, believing that, although the tract to which it refers is not now in this county, since it was embraced in its original limits, and is, perhaps, equally pertinent to the idea we wish to illustrate it will be both interesting and instructive.

Smith's steam saw mill was built in 1851, by R. & J. G. Smith and was operated by water until May, 1872, when steam was introduced as the motor. It saws one million feet of lumber annually. II The number of inhabitants comprised 268 natives and 36 foreigners • 300 whites and 4 colored persons. ' H Taylor's steam saw mill was built for a shingle mill in 1868, and in 1871 was remodeled and machinery adapted to a saw mill introduced. It saws 5,000 feet of lumber per day. ** All its inhabitants were natives and all except one were whites. ++ It was named after David Strait, the first and present postmaster. The postofflce was established here in 1853 and two mails are received per week — Tuesdays and Saturdays. Among other manufacturing establishments in this town are: Giles' steam saw mill, which is located on the line of Barton, and manufactures TIO&A. \QQ-T Settlements were commenced in this town as early as 1785. Enos Oanfield, according to the statement of his son, Amos, came about that year and settled in the south part, on the farm on which Amos Oanfield is now living. The latter was born in the town. He says there were but few settlers scattered along the river when his father came. Samuel and William Ransom, Primer and Andrew Alden came up the Susque- hanna from Wyoming Valley the same year and settled on Pipe Creek. Wm. Eansom and Andrew Alden located near the mouth of that cfeek, on the site of the village of Tioga Center. Wm. Ransom subsequently married the daughter of James Brooks, (Rachel) who came with his family two years later, and raised a family of nine children, some of whom are still living on the old homestead. Col. Wm. Ransom, son of the pioneer by the same name, was born in April, 1801, and still resides at Tioga Center. Col. David Pixley from Massachusetts and Ab- ner Turner from New Hampshire came in 1791, both having previously visited the country on one or more exploring tours. Col. Pixley moved to Owego in 1803, as is stated in the history of that town. Mr. Turner settled near the east line, upon the homestead where he afterwards lived and died. Joel Farnham settled in the east part in 1794-5. Jeremiah White from Wyo- ming settled at a very early day on th« river, a short distance below Owego, on premises subsequently occupied by Abel Stafford, Elizur Wright and, in 1803, by Samuel Giles. Hugh E. Fiddis was an early settler adjacent to Joel Farnham. John Hill from Waterford, Berkshire county, Mass., a Revolutionary soldier, settled near the river bank, below Mr. White, in 1792. Wm. Taylor, who accompanied James McMaster to Owego in 1785, settled subsequently a little lower down the river. Na- thaniel Catlin, one of the survivors of the sanguinary battle of Minisink, purchased Mr. Taylor's farm in 1800. Daniel Mersereau from Staten Island settled here the latter year on property purchased from Cornelius Taylor, who came shortly previous from Plymouth, in the Wyoming Valley. He continued his residence there until his death. Judge Noah and Eliakim Goodrich from Glastenbury, Conn., settled on prop- erty purchased of Col. David Pixley in 1802, on the latter'a re- moval to Owego. Both died in the town at advanced ages. John lumber and shingles. The first mill on this site was huilt in 1854, by Wm. W. Giles. It was burned in 1864 and rebuilt the same year. In 1871 the boilers exploded and did damage which required eleven weeks to repair. Grove Steam Mill, located two miles east of Halsey Valley, was built by its present owner, L. B. Ferbush, in 1871. It saws about 7,000 feet of lum- ber per day and 500,000 shingles annually. Beaver Meadows steam saw mill, located about four miles from Tioga Center, was erected in 1870 on the site of a water mill, and is owned by Nichols & Ross. It is capable of sawing 1,000 feet of lumber per hour. 196-Z TIOOA. Smith was an early settler in this town. Jas. Schoonover settled further down the river in 1794 and left numerous descendants in the county. Families by the name of Taylor and Hunger- ford settled in the same locality. Francis Gragg, Nathaniel Goodspeed, Lodowick Light, Jesae Ziba and Amos Miller, (the last four from Westchester eounty,) families named Fountain and Lyon, (who settled at the Ferry, a short distance above Smithboro,) and Ezra Smith, (who settled at Smithboro, and from whom that village was named,) were all early settlers. Mr. Smith held letters patent from the State, covering a large tract of land in that vicinity, and, in company with Mr. Light, and others, moved from Westchester county in 1791. Beniah Mundy, who located in the south part, was one of the first to settle in this town. He came about 1787. Asa Severn from Tompkins county was an early settler in the north-west part of the town, when it wns a wilderness. He erected a log house and made a clearing. Stephen Eider from Blenheim, Schoharie County, settled in the south part of the town in April, 1816. At the time he came, Mr. Eider says the town along the river was settled to some extent, but the north part was a wilderness, without roads, and infested by wild beasts which frequently preyed upon the sheep belonging to the set- tlers. Peter Lott settled with his family at Halsey Valley about 1801, and he and his daughter were accustomed to walk to Fac- toryville, a distance of fourteen miles, to attend church. Upon the brow of 'the cliff on the west bank of Owego Creek in this town was an Indian burying ground, which, from the remains found there, appears to have been extensively used. Many Indian graves were also found near the bank of the river a short distance below Cassel's Cove. The remains here were found in the usual posture, surrounded by the cuitomary im- plements of the chase and ornaments such as were usually de- posited with the body which they had contributed to support and adorn in life. About forty years lince, the east part of the town, at the west end of the " Glen Mary," owned by George J. Pumpelly, a large brass kettle, filled with articles of various kinds, of ancient appearance and manufacture, was disclosed by the plow. Among the contents was a copper tea kettle, which inclosed a pewter vessel filled with un trimmed rifle balls, just as they came from the mould. Other articles were an old-fashioned and peculiarly shaped hammer; a parcel of pewter plates of two sizes, the smaller ones showing no marks of use, being bright and un- dimmed by corrosion, and bearing the impress of the word " London "; and a peculiarly shaped iron or steel instrument, six or eight inches in length, pointed and like the head of an TIOGA. 196-^a arrow or spear, except that it had a single barb about two inches long, on one side only, and at its other end was a socket, appar- ently intended for a handle. Other articles of similar value were inclosed by the kettle, and are supposed to have been presents made to the Iroquois by the English agents during our Colonial history to cement the bonds of friendship between them, and to have been deposited where found by some member of that tribe on the approach of Gen. Sullivan's army, to pre- vent their falling into the hands of the invaders. Death or the fortunes of war, or forgetfulness of the precise spot where they were secreted may have prevented a resumption of the posses- sion on the retirement of the army.

At that time the valuable patents under which it was built were secured for several States by the enterprising firm which now con- tinues its manufacture, Adriance, Piatt & Co. At the second great trial of Mowers and Reapers, made by the N. Y. State Agri- cultural Society in 1866, the Buckeye again carried off the highest honors, showing that in the years intervening it had not gone backward in the race for superiority. Every new suggestion is thoroughly weighed, imjyrovements only are adopted. The verdict of the people is nearly as unani- mous as that of the learned and practical committees who made these awards, for its sales far exceed those of any other ma- chine in the sections supplied by Adriance, Piatt & Co. In fact they increase so fast, that the demand is almost always in ex- cess of the supply. The Self-Raking At- tachment on the Buckeye Machine has met with a success corresponding to that of the Mower, and has surpassed all others in the perfection of its operation. One great secret of the success of Adriance, Piatt & Co., as manufacturers, has been in the con- scientious manner in which they have built tbeir machines, and the great dura- bility of the Buckeye machine has been largely due to the excellence of the mate- rial used and the mechanical perfection of the workmanship.
