When John Harris, Jr., laid out Harrisburg, there was a thriv ing settlement in the vicinity. As early as 1755, and during the oc currences connected with the French and Indian and Revolutionary war periods, there was a cluster of houses in the neighborhood, but just how many is not now known. It was in 1784 that John Harris, Jr., discussed the plan of a town, and one year later William Maclay had surveyed it, and the borough of Harrisburg had its tangible beginning. It was a quar ter of a century before it became the capital city of the common- 490 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY wealth. No city in the North hlas played a more important place in the political history of the country than Harrisburg. It was here that General George Washington halted in his march to suppress the Whiskey Insurrection, and the stone on which he stood while he addressed the citizens of the borough is still preserved as a memo rial by one of its venerable citizen's — Mr. Rudolph F. Kelker. It was here that Daniel Webster addressed the legislature in the for ties. It was also the centre of excitement in the time of the so* called "Buckshot War." In later years, when thle Rebellion, came on, "Camp Curtin," at this point, became one of the largest camps in all the Northland. Thousands upon thousands of Pennsylvania troops left Harrisburg and Camp Curtin for the front. This was the greatest mobilizing point. It was Harrisburg, too, from whence went President Lincoln in secrecy, to Washington, D. C, the wires being cut and the plans of assassins thwarted — at least for a period of more than four years. It was in April, 1865, that the lifeless body of the martyred president rested in the State House a part of two days, being viewed by more than ten thousand of his admirers, many of whose faces were tear-washed from deep sorrow. The Philadelphia newspaper files of 1784 has the following advertisement : HARRISBURG. A NEW TOWN. The subscriber having laid out a Town on the banks of the Susquehanna, adjoining the Ferry (commonly called Harris' Ferry), he now offers for sale or on ground rent, for such term of years as may be agreed upon, a number of LOTS in said town. This spot of ground seems designed by nature for the seat of a town ; its healthy, pleasant, high situation; its easy communication by water with a great part of the country; its lying on the main road through the Continent, and from Philadelphia to Fort Pitt, and all the back coun try, points it out as one of the most convenient and best spots for a town in the interior parts of the State of Pennsylvania. The town may be accommodated with a very fine dock at a small expense, there being a natural canal, defended on both sides by limestone banks at its entrance into the Susquehanna, where boats and crafts will lay safe at all times. There being a great deal of fine clay for making bricks and earthen ware, also a great plenty of wood, which will be furnished on very low terms, encouragement will be given to brick- makers, potters, and other tradesmen. For terms apply to John Harris. HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 491 In 1766 John Harris, Jr. erected the large stone house on Front street, below Mulberry. Three years were consumed in its construction. It was a remarkable house in its day. " It remained in the possession of members of the Harris family until 1838, when Colonel Thomas Elder purchased it. At his death it passed into the hands of Rev. Beverley R. Waugh, in 1855, for the use of the Pennsylvania Female College, of which he was principal. The executor of the Waugh estate sold the property to General Simon Cameron, who made improvements but kept the old time honored land-mark substantially as it was originally built. HARRISBURG AND WILLIAM PENN. While there is no positive proof of the assertion that William Penn had planned a city where now stands Harrisburg, yet the evi dence amounts to> far more than mere conjecture, as may be seen by the following extract from Hazzards Register, for 1828 : SOME PROPOSALS FOR A SECOND SETTLEMENT IN THE PROVINCE OF PENNSYLVANIA. [FROM WILLIAM PENN. J "Whereas, I did about nine years past, propound the selling of several parts or shares of land, upon the side of the Province of Pennsylvania next Delaware river, and setting out of a place for the building of a city, by the name of Philadelphia; and that divers persons closed with those proposals, who, by their ingenuity, industry and charge, have advanced that city, from a wood, to a good for wardness of building (there being about one thousand houses fin ished in it) and that the several plantations and towns begun upon the land, bought by those first undertakers, are also in a prosperous way of improvement and enlargement (in so much as last year ten sail of ships were freighted there, with the growth of the Prov ince for Barbados, Jamaica, etc., besides what came directly for this kingdom). It is now my purpose to make another settlement upon the river Susquehannagh, that runs into the Bay of Chesa peake, and bears about fifty miles west from the river Delaware, as appears by the Common Maps of the English Dominion in America. There I design to lay out a plan for the building of another city in the most convenient place for communication with the former plan tations on the East; which by land, is as good as done already, a way being laid out between the two rivers very exactly and con veniently, at least three years ago ; and which will not be hard to do by water, by the benefit of the river Schuylkill (Schoulkill) ; for a 492 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY branch of that river lies near a Branch that runs into Susquehannagh River, and is the common source of the Indians with their Skins and Furrs into our Parts, and to the Provinces of East and West Jersey, and New York, from the West and Northwest parts of the conti nent from whence they bring them. "And I do also intend that everyone who shall be a purchaser in this proposed settlement, shall have a proportionable Lot in the said City to build a House or Houses upon; which Town Ground, and the shares of Land that shall be bought of me, shall be delivered clear of all Indian Pretensions; for it has been my way from the first, to purchase their title from them, and to settle with their consent. "The shares I dispose of, contain each, Three Thousand Acres for one hundred pounds, and for greater or lesser quantities after that rate; the acre of that Province is according to the statute of the 33th of Edw. I. And no acknowledgement or Quit Rent shall be paid by the Purchasers till five years after a settlement be made upon their Lands, and that only according to the quantity of acres so taken up and seated, and not otherwise; and only then to pay one shilling for every hundred acres for ever. And further I do promise to agree with every Purchaser that shall be willing to treat with me between this and next spring, upon all such reasonable con ditions as shall be thought necessary for their accommodation, intending, if God please, to return with what speed I can, and my family with me, in order to our future Residence. "To conclude, that which particularly recommends this Settle ment, is the known goodness of the soyll and scituation of the Land, which is high and not mountainous ; also the pleasantness and Large ness of the River, being clear and not rapid, and broader than the Thames at London Bridge, many miles above the place intended for Settlement; and runs (as we are told by the Indians) quite through the Province, into which many fair rivers empty themselves. The sorts of timber that grow there are chiefly oak, chestnut, walnut, cedar and poplar. The native Fruits are Pawpaws, grapes, mul- burys, chestnuts and several sorts of walnuts. There are likewise great quantities of Deer, and especially Elkes, which are much bigger than our Red Deer, and use that River in Herds. And Fish there is of divers sorts, and very large and good, and in great plenty. "But that which recommends this Settlement in particular, and the Province in general, is a late Pattent obtained by divers Eminent Lords and Gentlemen for that land that lies north of Pennsylvania up to the 46 Degree and an half, because their traffick and Inter course will be chiefly through Pennsylvania, which lies between that Province and the Sea. We have also the comfort of being the centre of all the English Colonies upon the Continent of. America, as they lie from the North East parts of New England, to the most HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 493 southerly parts of Carolina, being above one thousand miles on the coast. "If any Persons please to apply themselves to me by letter in relation to this affair, they may direct them to Robert Ness, Scrivener in Lumber street, in London, for Philip Ford and suitable answers will be returned by the first opportunity. There are also instructions printed for information of such as intend to go, or send servants, or families thither, which way they may proceed with most ease and advantage, both here and there, in reference to Passage, Goods, Utensels, Building, Husbandry, Stock, Subsistence, Traffick, Etc., being the effect of their expense, and experience that have seen the Fruit of their Labours. "Wm. Penn." "Printed and sold by Andrew Soule, at the Crooked Billet in Halloway Lane, Shore Ditch, 1690." In speaking of the Province in general William Penn said : "God, that has given it me through many difficulties will, I believe, bless and make it the seed of a nation. I shall have a tender care to the government, that it be well laid at first. * * * I do therefore desire the Lord's wisdom to guide me, and those that may be concerned with me, that we may do the thing that is truly wise and just. "William Penn." the site of harrisburg. In the 1903 Report of the Secretary of Internal Affairs for Pennsylvania is found an interesting, as well as authentic account of the "Lands on the banks of the Susquehanna river where Har risburg is now situated." The same was prepared by Hon. Theo dore B. Klein, Deputy Secretary of Internal Affairs, who kindly gave the editor permission to copy. It reads as follows : "A bit of early and interesting history in regard to the first settlements in the vicinity of Harrisburg and the granting of lands to John Harris and others, will not only be found of value to the people of the Capitol City, but will be read with interest by all citizens of the Commonwealth who are interested in the early settle ment and development of lands within the limits of the State. "The recounting of historic facts based upon the records on file b,y the Department of Internal Affairs, is certainly within the prov ince of the Department's work and with this in view mention is made in the current annual report of the early settlement of the territory upon which the Capitol City is located, and of the original founding of Harrisburg. 494 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY "William Penn, from his home in the Fatherland, in view of his success at Philadelphia, conceived the idea of a settlement upon the Susquehanna, for in a prospectus in 1690, he said: Tt is now my purpose to make another settlement upon the river Susquehanna, that runs into the Bay of Chesapeake, and bears about fifty miles west from the river Delaware, as appears by the common maps of the English Dominion in America. There I design to lay out a plan for the building of another city, in the most convenient place for communication with the former plantations on the East; which by land is as good as done already, a way being laid out between the two rivers very exactly and conveniently, at least three years ago, and which will not be hard to do by water, by the benefit of the river Scoulkill, for a branch of that river lies near a branch that runs into Susquehannagh River, and is the common course of the Indians with their skins and furs into our parts.' "After stating the terms upon which he proposed disposing of the land, viz., one hundred pounds for three thousand acres, and at the same rate in proportion and as an inducement to settlers granted a credit of five years after settlement, and then an annual quit rent to be paid of one shilling for every one hundred acres, forever. '"He recommends the settlement 'for its known goodness of soil and situation high and not mountainous, and boasts of the Pleasant ness and Largeness of the River being clear and not rapid, and broader than the Thames at London Bridge, many miles above the place intended for this settlement, and runs (as we are told by the Indians) quite through the Province, into which many fair rivers empty themselves. The sorts of timber that grow thefe are chiefly oak, ash, chestnut, walnut, cedar and poplar. The native fruits are pawpaws, grapes, mulberry's, chestnuts, and several sorts of walnuts. There are likewise great quantities of Deer, especially Elks, which are much bigger than our Red Deer and use that river in herds. And fish there is of divers sorts, and very large and good, and in great plenty.' "Surely the terms of this prospectus could not fail to offer inducements and encourage emigrants to travel to the promised land. "John Harris, anticipating the desires of William Penn and weary of waiting for the new city to be laid out, reached the place of his choice a short time prior to 17 19, a favored spot upon the banks of the Susquehanna at a point near which the trains of the early settlers and emigrants crossed the noble river. His prophetic eye saw the possibilities of the location for the active trader and, therefore, he decided to erect his primitive castle upon the chosen spot, where (with his wife, Esther Day, an English maiden who had found favor in his sight) a settlement was established which in due time has become the capitol city of the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 495 "He acquired a large body of the virgin soil, with its timbers and streams, covering an area of more than 800 acres (including the tracts as indicated on the map herewith), which was patented to himself and Joseph Turner, on the 17th day of December, in the year of our Lord, 1733, the seventh year of the reign of King George the Second over Great Britain, and the sixteenth year of the Proprietaries' government. Thomas Penn affixed, the great seal of the Proprietaries' Province for himself and John Penn and Richard Penn, by virtue of the powers and authorities to him granted by his associates as absolute proprietaries and governors in chief of the Province of Pennsylvania and the counties of New Castle, Kent and Sussex on Delaware. "John Taylor, the acting surveyor for the proprietaries, with his compass and chain, outlined the ground selected on the 4th day of June, 1733, and starting from a locust tree on the bank of the river, directed his chain bearers east-northeast, a distance of 320 perches (or a full mile) , to a white oak, one of the monarchs of the forest; from thence an angle was turned to the northwest and for a distance of 540 perches, or almost a mile and three-quarters, to a corner elm, when another angle was made, and in a west-south westerly direction a line was laid for a distance of 252 perches, or 5,158 feet, to a water beech on the bank of the river; from thence, by the several courses of the stream, for a distanc of 560 perches, or one and three-fourths miles, the line was joined to the locust tree, the place of beginning, inclosing 848 acres of beautiful land, now the heart of a beautiful city, upon which the official departments of the great Commonwealth are permanently located, together with prominent institutions devoted to education, congregational worship and domestic homes worthy of the seat of government of this great State. "The Lord of this Manor, bounded by the forests and the Susquehanna river, an active pioneer and enterprising trader, con tinued to develop the territory and to lay the foundations of a city of which he may have dreamed in the quiet hours of the night. "At the time of the grant of the land alluded to, a youth of six years of age rambled about the log cabin on the river bank (the first white child born west of the Conewago Hills) , and the name of this youth was that of his father, whose strong habits and strong character he inherited. The elder John Harris died in December, 1748, leaving the young man to continue the work he had begun, the results of which we are witnesses of in this year of grace 1904. "The responsibilities of the young man must have been great, ' but with the assistance of his mother he weathered all the troubles and care of the troublous times, and the treachery of the uncivilized Indians, and in time developed the plans for the new town and city that have grown from the humble cabin of the senior John Harris. "On the fifth of February, 1753, privileges were granted to 496 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY him by the Penns (Thomas and Richard) for the establishment of a ferry across the Susquehanna for a period of seven years. This became a great thoroughfare to the frontier, and attracted many people, and thereby they became acquainted with the prospects and advantages of the location selected by Harris. "It became a central rallying point of the sturdy yeomanry of the day, many of whom joined the ranks of the colonists in the War of the Revolution, and John Harris himself carried 3,000 pounds sterling to Philadelphia to be invested in the war fund required in that struggle with the mother country. "This event delayed the progress of the new settlement, but by an act of Assembly of March 4, 1785, Dauphin county was created out of a part of Lancaster county, and 'Harris' Ferry' was made the seat of justice thereof. "Previous to the passage of the above act, viz., March 3, 1784, Mr. Harris had made proposals for the laying out of a town on his land, providing for two hundred lots on the high ground above the mansion. The lots were each, to contain one-quarter of an acre of ground, to be intersected by streets, lanes and alleys. The proposition was made to the General Assembly, which body was requested to appoint commissioners to appraise the lots, twenty of which were to be reserved by himself. A lot was to be transferred for a court house and jail, and a square of four acres, to the State of Pennsylvania for such purposes 'as the government may desire.' "The town proposed by Harris was laid out in the spring of 1785, by William Maclay, who was a son-in-law of Mr. Harris. Mr. Maclay made a map of the town, and afterwards was known as a United States Senator from Pennsylvania, serving from 1789 to 1791. "From this date the assurance was given that the foundations of a permanent place were laid deep and strong, and with the am bition to secure the seat of government. John Harris conveyed to certain of his neighbors, in trust for public use, four acres and twenty-one perches of land located upon the high ground beginning at what is now the corner of Third street and Walnut and extending up to where the State buildings are now erected. Subsequent action of the Assembly and negotiations with the heirs of the original proprietor secured the present capitol grounds, enlarging them to the area of over fifteen acres. "The progress and advancement of the 'Harris Ferry' site, since the early days of its founding, are recorded in full upon the proper record of the municipality, to which the student is referred. "The future developments of the greater Harrisburg may be in a measure conjectured from suggestions advanced in public places, but the items of history herewith presented are intended only to pertain to the early founding of Harrisburg." *-"v<«to„^ -ixx^b ^>)&pQAXriA*/*£ -to <&« ¦ctffiiot4b aA> 498 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY THE NAME "HARRISBURG." According to> the proceedings of the second court held at this point, dated "Harrisburg," on August 3, 1786, the following ap pears in the record! book : "The name of the County Town, or Seat of the Courts, is altered from 'Harrisburg' to 'Louisburg,' in consequence of the Supreme Executive Council of the Commonwealth so styling it in the commissions of the Justices of said Town." May 16, 179 1, the docket has recorded this note: "The name of the County Town is altered toi Harrisburg, in pursuance of an act of Assembly creating it into a borough under the name of Har risburg, passed April 13, 1791." Robert Harris, Esq. was in his lifetime authority for the state ment that when the Assembly passed the act, in 1785 establishing Dauphin county, it fixed the seat of Government m ar Harris' Ferry, the design being to leave John Harris the privilege of naming the town. However, Chief Justice McKean and some of the judges Old Court House. HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 499 of the supreme court, knowing that as the county was named for the Dauphin of France the town should be called Louisburg, after Louis XVI. At that time France was popular with the people hereabouts on account of aid received from that nation during the struggle for Independence. Aside from this, Harris and Judge McKean were not personal friends. According to the first precept for holding courts here, the court was directed to be held at Louisburg. John Harris, how ever, told the judges they might "Louisburg" as much as they pleased, but that he would never execute a title for any lot in any other name than that of Harrisburg, and his determination pre vailed, hence the name "Harrisburg" has come to> us.

John Penn and son Thomas, grand son of William Penn, made a journey from Philadelphia to Carlisle to look after some business of the Proprietary. He left Philadelphia on April 6, 1788, on horseback, and reached Reading the next day, where he HISTORY OF1 DAUPHIN COUNTY 501 remained until April 8, when he left toward the Susquehanna. His daily journal says: " April 10. Rose by six o'clock, and after breakfast set out in order to sleep at Harrisburg, the chief town of Dauphin county. and which was proposed to be the seat of government. Passed some mills a few miles from thence, at Tulpehocken Creek, which afterwards meets the road somewhat farther in a very picturesque spot. On the eastern side of this is a most elegant new Lutheran Church. On the western is a Calvanist's, called here, by way of distinction, a Presbyterian, Church. After riding through a village I came to Lebanon, a handsome town containing some hundred inhabitants. This place is decorated by a spire, and the houses are well built, many of them stone or brick. It not being distant enough, the horses were baited at Millerstown, a small village half way, and twenty miles from Harrisburg, or Harris's Ferry. About sunset I had a fine view of this town from an high part of the road, the river Susquehanna flowing between its woody and cultivated banks close to the town. Mr. Harris, the owner and founder of this town, informed me that three years ago there was but one house built. Though the courts are held here generally, Lebanon is infinitely larger. The situation of this place is one of the finest I ever saw. One good point of view is the tavern, almost close to the river. This was the house which stood alone so many years. It is called the Compass, and is one of the first public-houses in Penn sylvania. The room I had is twenty-two feet square, and high in proportion. " April 11. After breakfasting, about eight, with Mr. Harris, we walked together to the ferry, when he gave me two pieces of information, one of an island he purchased of us, which the war prevented us from confirming to him, and the other of the delin quency of one Litso, who wishes to detain the money due in part for a farm over the Susquehanna, though there is an incumbrance in our favor on it to the amount of six or seven hundred pounds, going on upon interest. The waters being high, we ferried across with difficulty, and almost dropped down to a very rapid part below the landing place, but at length escaped a disagreeable situation. About two miles from the river passed the house of Whitehall, the Assemblyman, and arrived about three at Carlisle, seventeen miles off." GEORGE W. HARRIS DESCRIBES HARRISBURG. In an early-day directory of the place, by Mr. Napey, George Washington Harris, a grandson of John Harris, "the founder" of the city, described his native city in the following graphic and in teresting manner: 502 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY "When the town was first laid out the old orchard belonging to the mansion house extended up to about the line of Mulberry Street. About the intersection of Mulberry Street with Second Street was a ridge, from which the ground descended from six to ten feet to the present Market Square, and the water ran from the square upwards and into the river along the channel which is under the bridge now erected across Front Street above Walnut. At this time the ground above Market Street was chiefly in woods. "Mr. Robert Harris, who died in the year 1851, frequently saw several bears killed in the river in one day. In the fall of the year they would come down from the mountains to the cornfields, and were quite abundant in the neighborhood. It was quite com mon to see them while riding along the roads. The farmers when going out to plow would frequently take their guns to guard against their depredations. On one occasion Mr. Robert Harris with his sister, Mrs. Hanna, were playing at the river near the mouth of the run at the end of Walnut Street. A thicket of bushes extended up along the run. Some boys came running from a barn on the bank and told them that two bears were coming down the run. They scampered up the bank, when presently the bears came along and took into the river. "On another occasion a man named Rennick, with some others, went in pursuit of a bear. When the canoe approached near to it, Rennick made a stroke at the bear with his socket-pole, but missed it. He either lost his balance or was drawn overboard by the weight of the pole, and the bear struck him with his paw and tore his cheek open. "Wild turkeys were also abundant here at this period. John Harris shot wild turkeys from the door of his store-house. Beaver and otter were then and afterwards killed along Paxton Creek and on the islands in the neighborhood. "The town as kid out by John Harris extended as far down the bank as Mulberry Street, and the lot on the corner of Front and Mulberry Streets, owned by the heirs of Valentine Egle, was No. 1 on the plan of the town. In the course of a few years afterwards extended the plan down to Mary's Alley, which bounds the store house lot on the upper side. His executors, in 1792, extended the plan of lots farther down. "There is no house, except the Harris ma'nsion on Front Street, yet standing within the limits of Harrisburg which is certainly known to have been erected before the town was laid out. "John Hamilton erected the first permanent embellishment to the town, after Harris' stone house, by building a brick house at the upper corner of Front Street and Blackberry Alley and the large establishment for his store on the corner of Market Square and Market Street, which was known a few years ago as the 'Wash ington House,' but since replaced by a new structure, termed the HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 503 'Jones House.' Mr. Hamilton carried on an extensive trade with the Western settlers. In place of the present rapid mode of con veying merchandise and passengers to Pittsburgh, he kept large numbers of horses and mules, and every few weeks his caravans set out 'for the West,' ladened with salt, powder, lead, etc. "The first clergyman established in the town was Rev. Joseph Montgomery, a Presbyterian. His first discourse, it is said, was delivered in the lot where recently stood the ruins of the Presby terian Church on a pleasant afternoon in the month of June. The congregation — the entire village — were sheltered by two or three large apple-trees and some noble oaks, the primitive growth of the forest. "Chief Justice McKean resided here for some time, at least whe^Congress sat at York. He lived in a substantial one-story log house, a short distance above what is now Locust Street. He wore an immense cocked hat, and had great deference shown him by the country people, and the straggling Indians, who had their vil lage a short distance from the town. When he and the other judges of the Supreme Court came to the town to hold court num bers of the citizens would go out on horseback to meet them and • escort them to town. Sometimes one or two hundred people would attend on this occasion. And each morning while the chief justice was in town holding court the sheriff and constables escorted him from his lodgings to the court-room. When on the bench he sat with his cocked hat on, and was dressed in a scarlet gown." HARRISBURG DESCRIBED BY A FRENCHMAN. It was during the years 1795-6-7 that the Duke de la Roche- foucauld-Liancourt, of France, made an extended tour through America, and enroute he passed through Dauphin county, making special mention of Middletown, Harrisburg and Fort Hunter ( Mc Allister's). His report on Harrisburg was as follows, and is none the less interesting in the light of what has transpired here since the critical Frenchman paid his early-day visit here more than a century ago: "Mr. Harris, lord of the manor on which Harrisburg stands, availed himself of Mr. Frey's error to procure his town advantages that the former neglected. No sooner was it in, contemplation to form the tract of country, separated from Lancaster into a district county than he offered the government of Pennsylvania to sacrifice not only toll on the Susquehanna, of" which he was possessed, and the profits of which were lawfully his, but also several thousand acres of land in and about the town, reserving to himself only twenty ground shares. This offer induced the government of Pennsyl- 5o4 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY vania to make this the chief town of the county, though it has neither an anchoring-place for the ships that sail up and down the river, nor can afford them the smallest shelter. "The new county obtained the name of Dauphin. The first houses were built here in 1785, and their number at present amounts to three hundred. "The formation of this town being of a more recent date than any other, the buildings were from the very first of a better con struction than anywhere else; and such as were not originally good houses have since been rebuilt. Very few log houses are therefore to be found in Harrisburg, but, on the contrary, many substantial and handsome edifices ; and though this town is smaller and of later establishment than Reading and many other places, yet it is more compact and has a much better appearance. A malignant epidemic fever has made the same havoc in Harrisburg as the yellow fever did in Philadelphia, and for a whole twelvemonth checked the prog ress of building. As the fever did not return last year, however, building is still going on; but the prejudice of the town being insalu brious still remains, whether it be really so or, as the inhabitants affirm, merely a scandalous report propagated by the jealousy of the neighboring towns. The unhealthiness of the place being imputed to the stagnation of some water which was made to turn a mill, it was proposed to the miller to throw down the dam, and an indemnifi cation was offered him. He demanded last year four thousand dollars, but this sum not having been raised soon enough in his opinion, he this year raised his demand in proportion to the increased desire of destroying his dam, and insisted on the payment of eleven thousand dollars. The inhabitants, enraged at this exorbitant demand, and at the same time earnestly wishing for the demolition of the dam, unanimously resolved to destroy it, and appointed a commission to award a just indemnification to the miller, which has been determined at the sum he first demanded. All the inhabit ants seem to have concurred in this proceeding, which, though not to be applauded, is less censurable on account of the miller's enor mous rapacity. The unanimity with which this transaction was accomplished insures its impunity, and the miller will be cautious of entering upon a prosecution, as the grand jury would certainly throw out his bill. He has no one to blame but himself for the destruc tion of his dam, and the public opinion which by a more prudent conduct he might last year have engaged in his favor, is now decidedly against him; yet with many of the demolishers themselves it remains a matter of doubt whether the demolition of the dam have any way increased the salubrity of the place. "A prison and a sessions-house have been built at Harrisburg, and a plan is in agitation to form an anchorage for ships. The inhabitants exert their utmost efforts to procure to this place all the advantages of which it is susceptible, and even indulge a hope HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 505 that the seat of the government of the State will be removed to their town. They* form a central point, at least for the popula tion of Pennsylvania, and are less distant from the remote western parts than any other county on this side of the Susquehanna, and on these local advantages they ground their hopes. It is, however, to be wished that their notion of determining the seat of the Legis lature by a pair of compasses may be confined to men who cannot influence the decision, and that it may be rightly understood how much better it is for the deputies to travel one hundred miles farther than remove the seat of government from Philadelphia, which is the most populous city, and the only trading town in Pennsylvania, and which consequently forms that point where the best information is in unison with the most important interests. The public expendi ture necessary in this newly-formed county causes the taxes to be somewhat higher than in the counties of Lancaster and Berks; the difference may be a shilling in the pound. Unless you chance to meet with a commissioner of taxes, the exact proportion is not to be ascertained, as a general ignorance on the subject everywhere pre vails. The taxes, however, are generally deemed very light, even by those who pay them, which is undoubtedly the strongest proof that they are so. The majority of the inhabitants of Harrisburg consists of Germans and Irishmen, firmly attached to government, sensible and industrious. The number of inns in America is out of all proportion to that in Europe. This place contains no less than thirty-eight. It has twenty-five or thirty shops, where may be found all sorts of merchandise, procured from Philadelphia on twelve and eighteen months' credit, and of which the shopkeepers rapidly dispose at double or treble their prime cost. The price of ground shares in the town of Harrisburg is from one hundred and fifty to two hundred dollars. The land in the surrounding country is good; its price is from thirty-two to forty-eight dollars an acre. Day laborers are paid here three shillings and sixpence a day, with their board, or five shillings without it. "The Susquehanna near Harrisburg is about three-quarters of a mile in breadth; in summer it is frequently fordable. The naviga tion is extremely dangerous for several months in consequence of some rapid currents, and never safe except in spring and autumn, when the water is sufficiently high to cover the rocks, which become more numerous at the point where the Juniata falls into the Sus quehanna, nine miles above Harrisburg, and greatly increases the dangers of the navigation. The government of Pennsylvania has offered eight hundred thousand dollars for clearing the river of these rocks from the above point down to Middletown, but hitherto no one has ventured upon this enterprise. I entertain no doubt, how ever, but that this vast undertaking will shortly be accomplished, though the sum hitherto offered may not be sufficient, but must probably be increased. The industry and prosperity of Pennsyl- 506 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY vania will in time overcome this, as well as many other disad vantages which have heretofore been deemed insuperable. A Frenchman resides at present at Harrisburg who was born in France, but came hither from Martinico. He is a physician, and though he speaks but little English, and has resided here only a few months, enjoys already considerable practice. "We had a letter to Gen. Hanna, and as we intended to stop here, but a few hours, we delivered it as soon as we alighted from our horses. Gen. Hanna is a man of about thirty-six or thirty-eight years of age, and brigadier-general of militia. He was a member of the Senate for Pennsylvania, but went out by rotation last autumn. Before he was engaged in the service of the State he was a lawyer, but he has since relinquished that profession, and has commenced farming. He married a daughter of old Mr. Harris, the founder of the town, and appears to be an upright, worthy character. Not being prepared to give us a dinner, as we came unexpectedly, he offered to attend us to our evening quarters, seven miles from this town, as some token of respect for the letter of introduction which we brought him. As our horses wanted shoeing, we were obliged to make him wait some time, which we passed in the true American style, quaffing a bottle of Madeira and smoking segars. The gen eral is not fond of them, but prefers chewing tobacco; yet from motives of politeness he smoked with us. Being at our lodgings we proposed as a toast 'The President,' upon which he immediately gave 'Lafayette.' I noticed this trifling circumstance to introduce once more the remark that Lafayette is constantly toasted next to the President, which in my judgment reflects honor on America." THE PLACE INCORPORATED AS A BOROUGH. April 13, 1 79 1, an act was passed to incorporate the town of Harrisburg into- a borough. The limits of the borough were fixed : "Beginning at the low-water mark on the eastern shore of the Sus quehanna river; thence by the pineapple tree, north sixty degrees and one quarter east, seventy-nine perches, to an ash tree on the west bank of Paxton creek; thence by the several corners thereof three hundred and twenty-three perches to a white hickory on Wil liam Maclay's line; thence by the same, south sixty-seven and three- quarters degrees west two hundred and twelve perches to a marked chestnut oak on the eastern bank of the Susquehanna ; thence by the same course to> low-water mark to place of beginning." The limits were extended by the act of April 16, 1838, as fol lows: "Thb northwestern boundary line of the borough of Harris burg shall be and the same is hereby extended and enlarged as fol lows: Extending it along the river-line to the upper line of the HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 507 land of the late William Maclay, on the said river; thence to Pax- ton creek, and thence along said creek to the northwestern, corner of the present boundary;" thus annexing the town of Maclaysburg, or all thlat part of the present borough laying northwest of South street. John Harris, the founder of the town, died July 29, 1791, and is buried in the graveyard of Paxtang church. He was sixty-five years of age at the date of his death.

It was in i860 when Harrisburg was incorporated from a bor ough to> a "city." The boundaries were extended in all directions. The following served as commissioners, and were from among the reputable citizens of the borough: John Shoemaker, Charles P. Muenich, William Calder, David S. Herr and A. Boyd Hamilton. These commissioners laid out streets and alleys, and set in motion the general municipal machinery. This move was met at first with great opposition, but it was soon discovered that the time had really come for such a change. In 1880 the statistics show that Harris burg ranked sixth in the state, and in manufacturing enterprises, third — Philadelphia and Pittsburg only surpassing it. The following is a list of the mayors who have been at the head of the city government since it became a city : William Kepner 1860-63 A. L. Roumfort 1863-66 Oliver Edwards 1866-69 W. W. Hayes 1869-70 George B. Cole 1870-71 William K. Verbecke 1871-73 J. D. Boas 1873-75 John D. Patterson 1875-81 John C. Herman 1881-83 Simon Cameron Wilson .... 1883-86 (Died in office and was succeeded by S. W. Fleming). Samuel W. Fleming 1886-87 John A. Fritchey 1887-93 Maurace C. Eby 1893-96 John A. Fritchey 1899- 1902 Vance C. McCormick . . .1902-1905 John D. Patterson 1896-99 Edward Z. Gross 1905- 514 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY In 1904-05 the city officials were: City treasurer, O. M. Cope- land; solicitor, D. M. Sietz; city engineer, Mathew B. Cowden. The following gives the population by decades : 1790 875 i860 13-405 1800 1,472 1870 23,100 1810 2,287 1880 30,762 1820 2,990 1890 39>385 1830 4,311 1900 50,167 1840 6,020 1905 (Estimated) 65,000 1850 7,834 At this date (1905), the city is divided into ten wards with the following area of land in acres: Ward No. 1, 514; Ward No. 2, 298 ; Ward No. 3, 59 ; Ward No. 4, 96 ; Ward No. 5, 65 ; Ward No. 6, 237; Ward No. 7, 506; Ward No. 8, 232; Ward No. 9, 237; Ward No. 10, 315; total, 2,563 acres. STREETS, WATER WORKS, FIRE DEPARTMENT, ETC. January 1, 1905, the city contained twenty-two miles of paved streets of the following character and amounts : Sheet asphalt pav ing 18 1-2 miles; vitrified brick, 2 1-2 miles; wood block, about 1-6 mile; bituminous macadem, about 1-6 mile; asphalt block, about 4-6 mile. In addition to- this, there are twenty-five miles of "earth and gravel" streets of a superior character. Sewer and Water Pipi s. At this date there are fifty miles of sewer pipes and fifty-two miles of water pipes in existence in the city, adding great value and utility to the 14,842 buildings reported by the building inspector, January 1, 1905. Very early in the history of the place an effort was put forth to provide a supply of good water for domestic and other purposes. About 1800 several trial surveys were effected to obtain water from some of the springs on the high land east of Paxtang creek, below South street, but aside from a wooden pipe service to the tannery of Mr. Potts nothing came of it. In 18 1 8-19-20, Thomas Elder, Hugh Hamilton, Joseph Wal lace, John Forster, Robert Harris, James R. Boyd, Jackson Wat son, Abraham Bombaugh, George Beatty, Samuel Halman, John Fager and John Roberts determined upon and made a survey for a water supply for Harrisburg, then having a population of 3 000 highly cultivated but "very poor in purse." So soon after the war HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 515 of 1 8 12-14. Their plan was to collect the spring waters by a dam at the junction of Market and Thirteenth streets, a point over a hundred feet above low water-mark in the Susquehanna, The water thus collected was to be conducted to the town in, wooden pipes and supplied by gravitation. It was expected this project would cost $33,000, but the borough felt the expense too great, and it was abandoned. The place was then indebted but $2,000. In March, 1823, an act of the legislature was passed incorpor ating a company "to supply the borough of Harrisburg with water, and to- insure against fire." The corporators were John Zinn, John Forster, Jacob M. Haldeman, Obed Fahnestock, John Capp, Sam uel' Pool, Peter Keller, Robert Harris, John B. Cox, Abraham Oves, Christian Gleim, John S. Wiestling, William LeBarron, Jacob Bucher, John Gingerich; shares twenty dollars, two> dollars to be paid at subscription, It was not until December, 1825, that the necessary amount of money was subscribed to set the company go ing. An election was then held by the subscribers. John Forster, cashier of the Harrisburg Bank, was chosen president, Dr. Thomas Whiteside treasurer, John Roberts secretary. Directors, John Zinn, tanner; John S. Wiestling, printer; Christian Gleim, printer and sheriff of the county; Samuel Pool, carpenter; John Ritchey, farmer. of Lower Paxtang; Benjamin Kugler, M. D., of Philadel phia; Abraham Bombaugh, farmer; Valentine Hummel, saddler. Lamoi Baldwin, Boston, was chosen engineer. The fall from the mouth of Stony creek at Green's mill to the Market street bridge across Paxtang was found to be twelve feet. Just as this work was to commence, the Pennsylvania canal commissioners surveyed the canal over the same route chosen for the water company's line. Long and hotly contested litigation followed, and finally the su preme courts decided in favor of the canal commissioners, and the water company lost all they had put into the enterprise. In February, 1833, a new act was passed having as corpora tors John Forster, Jacob M. Haldeman, Robert Harris, William Graydon, Hugh Hamilton, George Geiger, Frederick Kelker, John M. Forster, Abraham Bombaugh, Francis R. Shunk, Henry Bueh- ler, James Lesley, Luther Reily, Joseph B. Henzey, and Isaac Up- degraff. The charter allowed the company to take water from the river, "without a dam, at Brushy Rock," thence "to Pine street," where works were to be constructed to force the accumulated fluid "to' a point on the uninclosed public ground, having careful regard to the safety of the arsenal." The basin was to have been where the present Mexican monument now stands. The cost was esti mated at $120,000. The project never seemed to meet with the 516 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY response of the masses, and was finally abandoned, and still the city had no water supply ! The above failures, however, resulted in the introduction of Susquehanna river water into> the borough of Harrisburg. The idea originated with William Ayres, a leading spirit in the Harris burg bar at that date. As a member of the borough council, in January, 1839, he planned, and on March 26 same year he secured the passage of a bill in the legislature to supply the borough of Har risburg with water. In, compliance with this act a committee was appointed to carry out the provisions. A competent engineer was secured to "ascertain what head and fall could be had in the river from 'Miller's Ripples' to the foot of the borough, both with and without a dam." Also, they were to enquire into the expediency of employing water power, or steam, the cost of basins, pipes, etc. The twin conflagrations of the previous year, which had de stroyed two blocks of valuable property, were still fresh in mind. Colonel John Roberts, who made the survey and plot of the reser voir grounds, and the hard work of the committee, had matters in shape by the spring of 1840, ready for acceptance on the part of the council. September, 1841, saw the water-works completed. A report of January, 1844, shows there were eight miles of pipes laid; 107 stop-cocks; 99 fire plugs. The total cost of the works had been placed at $120,459. The total number using water was 658. This, with extensions, the plan, sufficed until 1868, when active measures were again taken for an improved water supply. The water commissioners then appointed were Messrs. Wil liam Calder, A. Boyd, Hamilton, Charles. F. Muench, David S. Herr, and John J. Shoemaker. On the 16th of June, 1869, the commissioners elected H. P. M. Birkinbine engineer, who at once began an investigation of all the different sources of possible water supply including plans "five," "six" and "seven" : 5. Conveying the waters of Stony creek by gravitation into a reservoir located upon the elevated ground east of the city known as Prospect Hill. 6. Conveying the waters of Manada creek by gravitation into- a reservoir located on, Prospect Hill. 7. Pumping from the Susquehanna river at the site occupied by the present works (or at a better one if it can be found) by means of improved steam machinery, and forcing the water into a reservoir of sufficient altitude and capacity to meet the present and future wants of the city. The fifth, sixth, and seventh sources were favorably regarded, the others decidedly objected to for various reasons. The commis- HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 517 sioners, however, themselves thoroughly examined every source of water supply, and after careful consideration decided upon the sev enth plan, with a reservoir on Prospect Hill, and pumping from the Susquehanna at the foot of North street (or, as it should be grate fully named, Ayres avenue) . At once reports were made to the city councils, and immediate measures taken to secure the ground, construct the reservoir, and erect such additional works at the river front as was proper and necessary. When all was completed, the city's outlay was not far from three-quarters of a million dollars, but one of the most satisfactory systems of water supply in all the Union is here found doing service and duty appreciated by the citi zens. In 1874 much of the present water-works plant was erected, and from time to' time, as the city has demanded a greater supply of water, the capacity has been enlarged. Among some of the ma chinery in this pumping plant are engines put in operation over thirty years ago, and are now held in reserve for emergency cases. The bonded indebtedness of this department of the city was, January 1, 1905, $445,695. The daily pumping capacity of these works, which draw their water supply from the Susquehanna river, is twelve million gallons. The, average per diem for the past year was 8,787,198 gallons. Of this amount, 4,378,727 gallons were furnished through meters for manufacturing, elevator and motor purposes. Free water is furnished to the city, and amounted last year to $27,196, and that given to hospitals, charitable institutions and churches amounted to $1,798. Free water is furnished to over seventy churches, all the hospitals, county buildings, city offices, Public Library, Y. M. C. A. ; also supplies ten public drinking fountains, greatly appre ciated by both man and beast. During 1905, the greatest improvement directly creditable to> the people of Harrisburg, is the immense filtering plant, which the city constructed at a cost of over half a million dollars. When fully completed, the city will have pure water and an abundance of it. The water is pumped from the placid waters of the Susque hanna to a point on the island, opposite the pumping plant, and there it is thoroughly filtered and forced directly into the mains. The advantage of a municipality owning the water plant can be seen by the saving shown here, in the cost of fire hydrants alone, which amounts to' $20,445 Per annum. Possibly no city in all the country where all the water is pumped, furnishes as great a relative proportion of its supply for manufacturing use, as the city of Har risburg. ORIGINAL PtAT or THC "'''%. BOROUGH OT HARRISBURG, WITH ADDITIONS FROM 1785 TO 1808 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 519 An early ordinance of the borough of Harrisburg required ¦every householder to have one fire-bucket for each story in the house. These buckets were made of heavy leather, long and narrow in size, and were painted different colors, as the owner chose, with his or her name on them, and were kept hanging in some convenient place, frequently in the hall or entry, and it was the occupants duty, in case of an alarm, to carry or send them to the fire. Double lines were formed to the nearest pumps, and sometimes to the river; men, women and children joined in these lines, the latter being in the empty line. The buckets were passed from one to another filled with water and emptied into the side of the engines, which were worked by hand ; the empty buckets then passed back by those on the opposite line. Often the buckets were not more than half full when reaching the engines, the water being spilled by passing them along the line. There were separate lines for each engine. Balthaser Sees, who built the old "Union," the first fire-engine in the town, also made about fifty feet of leather-sewed hose, which was intended to have water conveyed from the pumps through them. As sewed hose was not water-tight, they never could be used. It was a diffi cult matter to maintain the lines at a distance from and out of sight of the fire, as every one wished to see it. It was hard, laborious Tvork to pump water for the buckets and to work the engines. When the pumps failed, as they often did, lines were then formed to the river. This primitive means of putting out fires was continued until 1836, when, to the great relief and joy of the people, the "Citizen" suction-engine was purchased. Hose enough was bought to reach from either the river or canal to the centre of the town, and by that means the engines at the fires were supplied, but not in sufficient quantity without the bucket-lines. This continued until the water works were completed, in 1840. The hard work of the firemen at a conflagration at the engine- brakes continued until the present steam-engines were adopted, the "Friendship" being the first. All the hand-engines were gradually replaced by steam until the whole five companies were supplied. The first mode of giving the alarm of fire was by the ringing of the old court-house bell, followed by the different church bells, as the engine- houses then were small frame buildings without bells. Subsequently the direction was struck by the bells on the different engine-houses. The old Philadelphia system was then adopted, viz. : one stroke for north, two for south, three for east, and four for west; the other divisions of the compass were also struck. This alarm continued until the fire-alarm was erected in 1874. 520 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY The first fire company was organized June 17, I791) an-d Jonrt Kean was the first president. The following is a copy of the orig inal subscription paper: "We, the subscribers, considering the necessity of having an engine for extinguishing fires, do agree to pay to Adam Boyd the sums to our names affixed on demand, for the purpose of purchas ing an engine for the use of the Borough of Harrisburg. "June 17, 1791." On Friday, November 25, 1791, the residence of Mr. James Sawyer, on Locust street, was destroyed by fire. After the fire was over Mr. Sawyer returned his thanks to the men and women of the borough for the aid they had rendered him. As late as March 8, 1797, there was no> apparatus in the city designed for putting out fires. This is shown by an extract from the minutes of the Harris burg Free Debating Society. Among other questions discussed (March 8, 1797) was one for procuring a fire-engine. At the fire in the building used by William Porter as a cold-nail factory, on the 19th of February, 1798, no reference is made to any service by an engine, but Mr. Porter did thank the ladies for what they had done, and declared his willingness to contribute to a fund towards procuring another engine. The inference from this is that an en gine was then owned by the borough. Tradition names the "Union" as being the first engine in use, which is the one remotely referred to by Mr. Porter. The Union Company was dissolved some time between 1830 and 1838. Robert Sloan and Frederick Heisely were directors of the company, and George Capp secretary in 1824. An ordinance was passed by the town council, July 13, 18 13, impressing on all property-owners and tenants, whether male or female to have within convenient reach on their premises at least one leather bucket for use at fires. By' the terms of the same ordinance the borough was divided into two fire districts, called respectively northern and southern, with Market street as the dividing line, each district con taining a company. These companies were the "Union" and the "Friendship." Friendship Company, No. 1, was the pioneer company and the father of the present efficient fire companies. Its constitution dates back to August 11, 1812, although it.had an existence in 1803, James Maquinis was its secretary; and Messrs. Sawyer, Glass, Brua, Norton and Dorsheimer were "managers," as is learned from man uscript minutes, dated February 9, 1808. In 18 12 Obed Fahne stock was president, and Christian Gleim, secretary and treasurer in HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 521 1 8 13. In 1848 a new constitution was adopted. A fine building was erected in 1850, on Third street, below Chestnut, but previous to that they occupied a two-story frame structure on the river bank, a short distance north of the toll-house of the Harrisburg bridge. In 1 8'9 1 their present new quarters were provided. Hope Fire Company, No. 2, was formed January 6, 18 14. Captain Thomas Walker was the first vice-president. In 1823 Mr. Bucher was president. The first engine this company had was the "Pat Lyon," made in Philadelphia, at a cost of $1,200 and "threw two hogsheads of water per minute." The company was re-enforced under the auspices of the town council in January, 1853. A second class engine was purchased at a cost of $1,300. At first they used a small frame structure, but in 1855 built a two-story brick house on the same lot. The bricklayers, carpenters, painters and plasterers be longing to the company performed the work gratis, by the light of their fire-lanterns. Citizen's Fire Company, No. 3, was organized in 1836, with William Bostic, president; Henry Lane, vice-president; George S. Kemble, treasurer; and William Parkhill, secretary. They pur chased a fine $950 engine which had a severe test at the great fire of 1838, at the corner of Market and Fourth streets. It forced the water from the canal, thus doing away with the bucket-lines. When hydrants were put in, this company was first to respond to the use of hose, and purchased one thousand and six hundred feet and a beautiful hose-carriage. The court of common pleas granted them a charter in 1841, which was amended May, 1858. In 1856 they bought for $1,000 a new silver-mounted hose-carriage to take the place of the old one, and R. J. Fleming, of Harrisburg, made them a "Spider," for $200. In 1858 it procured a "Button Engine." At the time it was the largest engine in Pennsylvania, and weighed 3,500 pounds. It required fifty men to work it. Its cost was $2,- 500. It threw an inch and one-half stream 167 feet. Washington Hose Company, No. 4, was formed at a meeting held at the United States Hotel, January 24, 1841. Levi Wolfin- ger was president; John L. Martin, vice-president; E. S. German, secretary. The court of Dauphin county granted a charter of incor poration, September 2, 1843. i^ee Deed Book P, vol. ii, page 432.) March 23, 1844, the corner-stone for a building for a home for the company and its appliances was laid with appropriate ceremonies. It was located at the corner of Second street and Mead ow Lane, and was one of the most perfect in the Commonwealth at that date. It cost $800. April 29, 1858, a change was made to a 522 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY lot on Chestnut street, where a building was erected at a cost of $3,120. The introduction of steam fire engines into the city created a new era in the fire departments, and while this company maintained their position they advanced with the progress of the day, and se cured in 1876 a hose-cart drawn by horses. The second one bought cost them $600, and first went into service June 27, 1876, while the old one was taken apart and placed in the hall as a relic of the past. Mt. Vernon Hook and Ladder Company No. 5 was formed April 5, 1858, under the name of the "Independent," but soon changed to Mt. Vernon. The first officers were : William C. A. Lawrence, president; Richard Birkman, vice-president; William B. Wilson, secretary ; J. A. Carman, treasurer. The apparatus used by this company was made at Harrisburg, by R. J. Fleming, and cost $800. In 1858 their headquarters were in a frame building, corner of Locust and Raspberry alley; but in 1866 moved to Fourth street, near North. Horses were first used by them in, 1875, at the fire which destroyed the German Brewery on Chestnut street. Paxtang Fire Company No. 6 was organized in 1859, and se cured a powerful engine with side brakes, which was used until 1867, when they purchased a "Steamer," christened "John Harris." They built on Second street, at a cost of $3,600. Good Will Fire Company No. 7 was organized in i860, and first used a hand-engine with side-brakes. Its first home was on Ridge Road, above Cumberland street. It was a frame building, erected by the day-labor of the individuals belonging to the com pany. In July, 1869, the hand-engine was superceeded by a steam engine, called "Marion Verbeck," after the wife of William K. Verbeck, both of whom financially aided the company. Mt. Pleasant Hose Company No. 8 was formed in 1877. The president was William C. Kibby; vice-president, H. McKelly; Secretary, A. C. McKee. The city built them a fine building on Thirteenth and Howard streets. The creation of a chief and assistant engineers of the Harris burg fire department grew out of the organization of a fire in surance company formed by the several fire companies of the city, and subsequently known as the Harrisburg Fire Association. In September, 1868, the Fire Association transmitted a circular letter to each of the fire companies, requesting them to elect delegates to meet in convention to elect a chief and two assistant engineers for the fire department of the city. The convention was held Sept. 4, 1868, and resulted in the election of Henry C. Schaffer as chief engineer, HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 523 Joseph Montgomery as first assistant, and Samuel Ebersole as sec ond assistant engineer. The present Harrisburg Fire Department consists of eleven companies. In addition to those already named, are the Susque hanna No. 9, re-organized in 1899; the Reily Hose and Chemical Company No. 10, organized in 1885, and the Shamrock Fire Com pany. The present (1905) chief engineer is Charles A. Garverich; assistant, John C. Kindler; Superintendent of fire-alarms, Clark E, Diehl. By the following report it will be seen that the city has been fortunate in the matter of fires. The report covers the decade from 1877 to 1887: Number of fires in 1877 was 37 Number of fires in 1878 was 27 Number of fires in 1879 was 21 Number of fires in 1880 was 35 Number of fires in 188 1 was 18 Number of fires in 1882 was 33 Number of fires in 1883 was 40 Number of fires in 1884 was 36 Number of fires in 1885 was 33 Number of fires in 1886 was 35 Total for ten years 315 In modern days Harrisburg has ranked among the cleanest and hence healthiest cities on the globe. In 1885 reports show that the annual death rate was but nine persons per thousand, while New Orleans wa-s fifty; Chicago, nineteen; New York, twenty-five; Lon don, twenty; Baltimore and Boston, nineteen. This is accounted for from the fact that the city has excellent drainage, and the ordinances of the city require strict and rigid sanitary rules to be observed in keeping clean the streets and alleys. With a capital of $75,000, the Harrisburg Gas Company was incorporated in 1850.* Their plant was situated to the east of the Pennsylvania railroad, a short distance east of the foot of Mul berry street. The buildings consisted of two handsome brick struc tures, each a story and one-half high. The purifying boxes had a capacity of passing 80,000 cubic feet of gas per diem. The gaso*- meter was situated near by, and was fifty feet in diameter and six teen feet high, with a capacity of holding 30,000 cubic feet of gas. In 1858 there were 28,000 feet of gas pipe laid through the streets, 524 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY exclusive of the one and a half miles to the Lunatic Hospital. This gas plant cost $60,000. The first officers were: General William Ayres, president; John C. Bucher, treasurer; David Fenning, secre tary. , In 1887 the gas company had an invested capital of $450,000, and employed twenty-five men, receiving from the pay-roll $11,437, per annum. To-day it is fully equipped, and greatly enlarged to meet the requirements of the growing city and supplies its thousands of homes with both light and heat. Electricity Employed. — Among the first cities of the world to be illuminated by electricity was Harrisburg. It was in 1880 that the great inventor came to this city for the purpose of personally supervising the installment of an electric plant — the old original arc systems. A few eastern, and no western- cities aside from Aurora, Illinois, and a few streets and public buildings in Chicago, had only preceeded Harrisburg in the use of Mr. Edison's wonderful "Elec tric Lamp." With the passing of a quarter of a century, many improved methods have come into use. The erection of the Paxtang Electric Company's modern plant, and the installation of its underground conduit system of distribution, has given the city a competition in electric lighting and power. An energetic advertising campaign has greatly increased the use of electricity for these purposes in Harris burg. The Harrisburg Electric Light Company has also within the last year or two, added the most thoroughly up-to-date appliances to its plant. THE PARKS OF THE CITY. While nature has provided beautiful landscapes for the en vironments of Harrisburg, the refined tastes and culture of its pro gressive inhabitants within the past quarter of a century have im proved the natural park sites to a good degree, and are just now planning further and very commendable extensions of these im provements. The present public parks of the city are : Harris Park, extending from Paxton to Mulberry street, con taining three acres. Lincoln Park, from Mulberry to Market street, containing three acres. D. W. Gross Park, from the Water-House to Herr street, con taining two acres. Reservoir Park, on the heights, overlooking the city from the east, containing seventy-two acres, a small portion of which is within the city limits. 526 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY Capitol Park (State House grounds) contains sixteen acres, and a fraction and is beautifully shaded by scores of old and natural forest trees. Twelfth Street Play Ground, contains a fraction of eight acres. Island Filter Plant Park, one of the more recent parks, is sit uated on the large and charming island in the Susquehanna river, and is destined to become one of the most popular parks in the city. The total number of acres within these parks is one hundred and twenty-four. Harris Park, the first above named, was established by an act of the General Assembly, March 20, 1859. Capitol Park, a portion of which was donated by John Har ris, the city's founder, is under the management of the Board of Public Grounds and Buildings. No state capitol can boast of a more delightful plot of ground ; better cared for, and but few of a more modern and magnificent State House than the one now being com pleted at a cost of four million dollars. This park will ever be a monument to its generous donor. It is safely guarded day and by night by trusty police and watchmen, employed by the commonr wealth. The entire park is a beautiful grass-plot, :with artistic ce ment walks and driveways. The four hundred and forty forest kings comprising sixty-two varieties, are thickly inhabited by numer ous species of birds and squirrels whose rights are sacredly guarded. They have come to be quite domesticated, and are the pets and pride of both residents and visitors. Many of the cunning squirrels al most subsist on nuts and other sweetmeats taken from the hands and pockets of those who visit the place. Within these grounds is located the imposing monument erected in 1869 by the commonwealth in honor to the Mexican sol diers who lost their lives in the war from 1846 to 1849; also a fine equestrian statue in front of the main entrance to the capitol build ing, erected to the memory of General John Frederick Hartranft, of the army of the Potomac. The park is also enriched by beautiful flowers, both within and without the very extensive conservatory. The trees shading the grounds are all labeled with metal plates bear ing the Latin and English names of the various varieties of wood. This work was executed by an old citizen, William Fahnestock, in 1 89 1. In midsummer, when nature is at her best, as-one reposes in this cool, shady nook, with the song of birds and fountain's spray on. every hand, they can fully appreciate the saying, "A thing of beauty is a joy forever!" The most extensive and popular park for public gatherings is Reservoir Park, which is away from the din and hustle of the city, HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 527 and is on a very eminent elevation overlooking the picturesque Sus quehanna Valley. This is under the management of the Harris burg Park Commission. WTithin this park is situated the large water basin, or reservoir, containing the city water supply, which is pumped from the waterhouse on the river bank, hard by the main business portion of the city. Here one finds numerous pavillions, swings, rustic seats, flower gardens and refreshment stands. The car line runs near its border, while good paved walks span nearly the entire distance from the city. The proposed Capitol Park extension, an anticipation that will ere long be realized, will be another grand park improvement. Its benefits will be two-fold. It will not only improve the surrounding of the new capitol building and beautify the central portion of the city, but will cause many new and modern structures to be erected to take the place of the old ones which have long since become out of date. A magnificent system of driveways is now being provided for the city along the Susquehanna river to the outskirts. The scenery along this stream at this point is charming; wending its way as it does between the two mountain points, it presents its broad rippling surface to full view.' Connecting all the parks of the city there is, in all, eighteen miles of parkway, of which two miles is now highly improved and in service ; the balance is being acquired and improved as rapidly as possible. This parkway encircles the entire city, fol lowing small water-courses, and presents a driveway of great beauty. Harrisburg is within two hours drive of the historic field where Generals Hancock, Meade and others gained imperishable fame — the battlefield of Gettysburg. It is also within easy access to Mt. Gretna, Cold Springs, Mt. Holly, the rugged scenery where wind the waters of "Blue Juniata," and other popular resorts, having nat ural park scenery unequalled in any part of the East. Captain J. H. Campbell, of the Department of Internal Af fairs, is authority for the following concerning the chain-of-title of the State Capitol Park grounds : "July 6. 1785, John Harris, Jr. sold to Jacob and John Elder, Andrew Steward, James Cowden and William Brown, trustees for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania that portion of the tract from Walnut street and Pine street and from Third to High street, which paralled Fourth street, but which was vacated by the City. The consideration was five shillings. Subsequently the State bought for $49,700, eight properties at the corner of Fourth and Walnut streets, which were added to the park. "May 16, 18 10, William Maclay sold to Governor Snyder, 528 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY in trust, that portion of the park bounded by Third and Pine streets and North and Fourth streets, for $1,000. In order to make this sale to the state, Mr. Maclay bought certain lots between his tract and the Harris tract, which gave the State the present park grounds. High street extended from a point on Walnut street, about opposite the Walla Walla Hotel, to a point on the line of Pine street where there was an angle to this part of Fourth street. FINANCIAL.

CIVIL WAR DAYS. While the part taken in the great Civil war is fully treated in the military chapter, it is appropriate in this connection to state tha the location of the first great military camp in the Northern States was adjoining the city of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, and named by Generals Knipe and Williams, in honor of the chief magistrate of Pennsylvania, "Camp Curtin," which, with being the central pom of all communication, especially with the oft-beleaguered Federal capital, made it a prominent rendezvous. The citizens of Harris- Camp Curtain Hospital. burg were equal to every emergency and the community fed gratui tously twenty thousand returned three months' soldiers, for several days, the proper authorities failing to do so. Hospitals were estab lished, and, although in charge of the government, the ladies of the state capitol never wearied in well-doing, caring kindly for the sick and wounded men. Be it placed to their honor, that Messrs. John B. Simons and Eby Byers, established the "Soldiers' Rest," where the sick and wounded soldier-patriot, on his way homeward, found rest, refreshment and kind attention. Thousands were thus HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 533 taken care of from 1861 to 1866. In each cemetery within Dauphin county lie the remains of brave, true sons; while beneath the sod, within the city cemetery, are hundreds upon hundreds of both Union and Confederate graves from near and far away states. In all the struggles for life, liberty and the Union of States, Harrisburg has never been found lagging, but these dark days that tried men's souls have "passed like a dream that has been told." Be it forever re membered by those who shall come after us, that "Virtue and Liber ty" is the motto' of Harrisburg. No better or more reliable index of the Civil war happenings can be obtained than the writings found in the Union newspaper, published at Harrisburg, during that never-to-be-forgotten period. The Pennsylvania Daily Telegraph file for those years are on file in bound volume form in the State Library, and from there the author 534 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY has taken the subjoined items, beginning with the autumn of i860 and following through to 1866, embracing much of historic interest. These items having been written at the time by careful, unbiased editors, the facts therein narrated come with reliability and pre-em inent value. Union-Saving Meetings. — These great mass-meetings were fre quently held from November, i860, on to the opening of the Civil conflict. Great excitement prevailed; neighbor was pitted against neighbor, and brother against brother. One of these "Union-Sav ing" gatherings, was held at the court house in December, i860, pre sided over by Hon. John D. Pearson, assisted by the following vice- presidents: Rudolph F. Kelker, Hon. Val. Hummel, Sr., Hon. Wil liam Dock, James McCormick, A. L. Boumfort, D. W. Gross, Wil liam Colder, Sr., J. W. Weir, J. M. Kreiter, B. Harshorn, H. C. Fahnestock, Hamilton Alricks, J. J. Shoemaker, J. R. Eby, John Brady, Philip Dougherty, James Williams, John J. Osier, A. B. Warford, J. J. Greenawalt, John Haldeman, Sam. D. Young, J. L. Speel, James Kemble, Dr. E. L. Oorth, William D. Ernest, Wil liam Garrett, Richard Hagan, William Buehler, Dr. C. L. Seiler, Thomas J. Jordan, Charles L. Bailey. The assembly seemed about equally divided on the all absorb ing question of secession and slavery. At this memorable meeting, a committee of thirty-three persons reported the following resolu tions :"Whereas, A crisis of alarming magnitude now exists in the political history of our country, seriously threatening to sunder the political bonds Avhich have hitherto bound us together as one peo ple, in a common destiny, to produce anarchy and confusion, in all our social and business relations, and for a time, if not forever, to destroy the prosperity, happiness and fraternal feelings, which have characterized us as a united people. "Therefore Resolved, By the citizens of Harrisburg, Pa., that we entertain an abiding attachment for the Constitution of the United States, in all its parts and with all its compromises ; and we will cheerfully and without evasion, or duplicity, render obedience to all its provisions, adhering to it as the common bond of our Federal Union, the charter of our dearest political rights, and bind ing equally upon the North, the South, the East and West. * * * "(6) In our judgment, the rights of secession, as claimed by some of the States, have no existence in the Constitution; and we regard it a fearful remedy for any wrong which the South has sustained. We believe with the Southern-border States, that every grievence complained of, can be redressed within the Union." HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 535 Hon. John C. Kunkle, one of the Speakers, remarked that he "did not come to yield any manhood that belongs to Pennsylvania, but he thought the South had reason to complain of the North; that they were risking their lives to procure a slave in his escape through Ohio and Illinois, and he considered the Union of States worth more than the whole African race." War-Day Market Quotations. — November 26, i860, the au tumn prior to the opening of the Rebellion, the New York market in money stood: Sterling Exchange, $1.03; Thompson's Reporter quotes uncurrent fund as follows: "All south of Washington, Illi nois, Iowa, Wisconsin and Missouri, 10 per cent, discount. Mary land and Pennsylvania money three to five per cent, discount. ; Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan and Canada money, two- per cent, dis count. [This was before we had the present stable currency.] The first real war-meeting was called by the following notices published in the Daily Telegraph, April 15, 1861 — the first issue af ter Fort Sumter was fired on. THE UNION HAS BEEN ASSAILED! We Must be Brief When Traitors Take the Field — Friends of Freedom to the Rescue ! A mass meeting of the citizens of Harrisburg, and the public generally, will be held to-morrow (Tuesday) evening, April 16, in the Court Room, to express the sentiments of the people on the present alarming condition of National affairs. A blow has been struck at the Constitution of the United States, which calls for redress — the flag of our Union has been disgraced and the honor of the loyal States outraged. Submission is now treason. The gov ernment has called for aid — let the people respond. Able speakers will be present to address the meeting. The following are extracts from the newspaper press of the day: January 8, 1861. — The troops ordered from Ft. Leavenworth, Kan., by Gen. Scott, are now en route for the South, and will reach Harrisburg in a few days. They will take the Northern Central Railway, and proceed to Baltimore, and thence on to Fort McHenry. The vigorous movements of Gen. Scott will soon bring the South ern rebels to a proper realization of the dangerous position in which they have placed themselves. Secession is nearly "played out!" 536 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY Jan. 12, 1 86 1. — The troops from Ft. Leavenworth arrived at 9 A. M. over the Pennsylvania Railway. The force comprised 232 well-equipped men and 127 horses, in all occupying twenty-two cars. They remained a half hour, and took refreshments at the depot dining saloon. Immense crowds assembled to get a glimpse of U. S. soldiers. Jan. 30, 1 86 1. — Runaway Slaves. One night recently, a num ber of runaway negroes from the border counties of Maryland passed through this city to the north, but were captured and returned to their owners. On Sunday night three "Chattels" passed through town en route for some free state and have no doubt reached a place of safety before this. They were hospitably entertained here by some of their sympathizing colored brethren. Feb. 22, 1 86 1. — Never was Harrisburg on any former occa sion so crowded with people as it has been to-day. The number in attendance on the "Washington Birthday" and President Lincoln reception, is beyond the most sanguine expectation, and the display was the most magnificent we have ever witnessed here. Elsewhere we give a detailed account of the parade, the flag raising ceremony, and Mr. Lincoln's speech. Feb. 23, 1 861. — The flag was raised over the Cotton Mills [now the silk works], the same having been bought by the hun dreds of employes. After it was flung to the breeze, the "Star Spangled Banner" was sung. At the round-house of the Pennsyl vania Railway, a mast 160 feet high was reared, and the employes sent up a fine flag fifteen by twenty-five feet. Flags were also raised on many other buildings. Between four and five thousand military men were present in the city to attend the reception and "Flag Festival." Speeches were made by Lincoln and Gov. Curtin. Feb. 22, 1861. — Arrival of President-Elect Lincoln. Long before the procession arrived, the neighborhood of Second and Vine streets was crowded with an immense multitude of people — every balcony, window, tree and available point of observation was studded with humanity, anxious to obtain the first glance of "Honest Old Abe." The special train arrived at 1 =30 P. M., when the president with his suite was escorted to a barouche drawn by six elegantly caprisoned grey horses, which proceeded, followed by the procession, to the Jones House, where the president alighted and was conducted by Gov. Curtin, to the portico in front of the hotel. The hotel was elaborately decorated with small flags at each of the windows. The triumphal arch on the Market square side of the hotel was gaily bedecked with flags, and a banner containing the words: "Welcome, President, to our Capital." A series of gas jets shaped into letters forming the word, "Welcome," was placed on the portico for use in the evening. Opposite from the hotel was a large flag bearing the motto, "Protection to American Indus try." At Scheffen's book-store, a splendid banner with red and HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 537 white stripes and gold stars, with a wreath having a motto: "The Union must be preserved." The duty of raising the flag on the dome of the Capitol was entrusted to the soldiers of the War of 18 12. At exactly 12 :30 P. M. the flag being properly adjusted, the ropes begun to ascend slowly towards the dome, the old soldiers pulling away at them. As the flag reached the cornice of the main building it suddenly expanded, and as its meteor stripes kissed the clear, cold air, the immense throng burst forth in a shout that made the welkin ring again. At the same instant the cannon on Capitol Hill sent out its thunder ing tones in response. Mr. Lincoln's Remarks: In part, the Presdent said: "While I have been proud to see to-day the finest military array, I think, I have ever seen, allow me to say in regard to those men, they give hope of what may be done when war is inevitable. But at this time allow me to express the hope that in the shedding of blood their services may never be needed, especially in a fraternal way. It shall be my endeavor to preserve the peace of this country, so far as it can possibly be done, consistently with the institutions of this coun try. With my consent, or without my great displeasure, this country shall never witness the shedding of one drop of blood in fraternal strife." In place of going, as planned, direct to Washington, it was (as subsequent history proved) thought wisest by prominent friends of the president, including military and Pinkerton detective men, to have him separate from his family and by a special car, provided by "Tom" Scott of the Pennsylvania Railway, go to Philadelphia, where he caught a through sleeping car for Washington, his fami ly and party following the next day, as originally planned. And had this precaution not been taken, probably, he would have met mob violence at Baltimore, as Southern hatred was already becom ing very bitter towards him. The Telegraph of February 26, 1861, had an item headed "Old Abe's Personal Appearance," which read as follows : "The president has been so much belied in respect to his per sonal appearance, as well as to his political views, we wish to state that we had a fair view of him while speaking on the balcony of the Jones House, and declare to you that there is nothing outre about him. His looks and manners show that he is as good as his intel lectual conflicts and speeches have proved that he is a great man; and we prophecy that the day on which he is inaugurated — the croakings of mean and stupid partisans to the contrary notwith standing — will prove the happiest since the Declaration of Inde pendence. Mark well my prediction." 538 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY April 22, 1 8 6 1 . — The ladies of this city deserve especial notice for their praiseworthy efforts to assist the men who go out to fight for their country. A large number of them were working yesterday afternoon preparing haversacks for the soldiers. The muslin was furnished them and they were gathered in parties preparing them for battle. The Sunday schools were dismissed in order to give the young ladies an opportunity to prepare the bags. June 25, 1863.— The Harrisburg bridge was the outlet for thousands of refugees from the Cumberland Valley, and was thronged with the moving host of beings pouring into the city all day, and the arrival from up the Valley surpassed anything we ever saw. Wagonload after wagonload of men, women and children poured into the city from morning until night, many of them contra bands and free negroes, seeking to escape from the grasp of South ern rebels. The sight of these defenseless people was truly pitiful, few of them knowing which way to turn, and all depending upon the generosity of the people east of the Susquehanna river for sup port. Just before the Gettysburg campaign and Pennsylvania inva sion, the Telegraph had the following : June 26, 1863. — The scenes at the railroad depots are full of interest. Each train that arrives from the South on the North Cen tral or Cumberland Valley railroads brings its load of fugitives. There are congregated at the depot — the old, the young, mistress and maid, strong men and weak children, white and black, all commingled in one common mass, panic-stricken, weary, hungry and exhausted. Baggage is piled up in huge stacks — trunks and carpet sacks on every hand. Aside from this mass of baggage, here and there is seen a half dozen or more boxes containing coffins, with the bodies of those who have already offered themselves on freedoms altar. June 26, 1863. — This morning a large majority of the clerks and employes of the State Government, in the different departments, located in this city, tendered their services to Governor Curtin, as a military organization, to aid in the defence of the State Capitol dur ing the present emergency. There are enough men in the different departments on the hill to make quite a respectable company, and the Governor was surprised as well as pleased to find that those who lived by being in the employ of the State, should be so willing to offer their services to protect its Capitol at this crisis. June 28, 1863. — Two companies of colored troops have been organized in this city within a week. The one commanded by Cap tain Henry Bradley is full, and the other has over sixty men. Last evening the men — 120 in number — were on parade. June 28, 1863. — The enemy is advancing in force into Penn- HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 539 sylvania. He has a strong column within twenty-three miles of Har risburg, and other columns are moving by Fulton and Adams coun ties, and it can no longer be doubted that a formidable invasion of our State is in actual progress to-day. I therefore now call for sixty thousand men to come promptly forward to defend the State. They will be mustered in for ninety days, etc., etc. * * * Signed, A. G. Curtin, Governor of Pa. June 29, 1863. — The citizens of Middletown are up in arms in defence of their town, and will give the rebels a fight if they should attempt to cross the river at that point. A number of gen tlemen from that place were in Harrisburg this morning receiving arms for defence. Nearly every business house, with the excep tion of the hotels, have their door closed today, and all work appears to be at a standstill. A general suspension of business is actually necessary now, in order to allow all the able bodied males to assist in driving the rebels from the city. Everyone can assist in this emergency, either by shouldering the musket or picking lint, which will be needed by the surgeons in dressing wounds of those who may be engaged in repelling the foe now approaching the Cap itol city. Of the 40,000 soldiers, the quota for the Department of the Susquehanna, 3,000 are to be rendezvoused at Huntingdon, 17,000 at Harrisburg and 20,000 at Reading. July 1, 1863. — Five new hospitals have been opened at Har risburg within the past week. There are also three other hospitals within the city and vicinity, one at the cotton factory, another at the old brick tavern on the opposite side of the river, just below the railroad bridge, and the other at Camp Curtin. The ones at Camp Curtin and the cotton factory are nearly full of patients, and the one on the other side of the river has a few wounded soldiers. The most extensive hospital is at the Lancasterian school house on Wal nut street. The others are at the Female school house, corner of Walnut and River alley, the old colored church, the boys' high school building on Mulberry street, near front, and the Sunday school room of the German Reformed church. July 6, 1863. — The bake-house being erected by the Govern ment near the corner of Fourth and Chestnut streets, is rapidly approaching completion, and will soon be ready for the bakers to take possession. It is in a convenient locality, and can furnish warm bread to the "Soldiers' Retreat" not twenty rods away. About one o'clock Sunday afternoon, twenty-four carloads of paroled Union prisoners reached Harrisburg from Gettysburg. The train was drawn by two large locomotives, and contained nearly eleven hundred men. These men were taken early in the great bat tle near Gettysburg. At six o'clock seven more carloads came by the same route. 540 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY July 7, 1863. — The Pennsylvania Railroad Company have had a large number of their locomotives, passenger and freight cars, stationed along the road between East Liberty and Wall Station, Pittsburg, for the past week. It was thus concentrated through fear of its destruction by the rebels, and is stated to have been twelve miles long. Sunday they commenced distributing to various points, the invaders having been driven out of the State. No further danger is felt from rebel sources. July 8, 1863. — The largest and heavest trains that ever passed over the various railroads in this commonwealth are now being pushed forward, loaded with soldiers, and will be until the state is cleared of rebels. Yesterday evening a train half a mile long, loaded with spldiers, crossed the river into Cumberland county. It reached from the Dauphin shore way past the island, and contained more than two thousand souls. They were mostly three months men. The United States Christian Commission. — The labors of this Society during the past two weeks have been such as to commend this agency to the entire confidence of the nation. A large number of them have pressed their way on toward the Gettysburg battle field, to aid the sick, wounded and dying who are there. Through out the country people are sending their supplies and their dele gates. Let Harrisburg do well her part. Any supplies fitted for hospital use — shirts, drawers, socks, linen, etc. — sent to the care of James McCormick, Jr., will be thankfully received and used. Or contributions of money may be sent to I. M. Keller, T. H. Robin son, J. F. Seiler, J. J. Rebman, R. A. Martin, or G. A. Ogelsby, Harrisburg, Pa. Sept. 15, 1863. — An immense amount of hay purchased by the government has been hauled to the camps near this city within the past few days. Owing to the great demand for hay, and the light crop the past season, the prices have advanced. A good article sells at as much as twenty-five dollars per ton, and we have not heard of any sales of an inferior article at a lower rate than twenty dol lars. That the "Copperhead" element was very strong in Harris burg throughout the Civil war period, one only has to read such items as the following, which appeared almost dailv in the Daily- Telegraph : Oct. 2, 1863. — Notice to our Farmers: Look out for pollu tion ! Those of our agricultural friends who do not desire to have their wagons or baskets polluted to-morrow morning, while they are engaged in the peaceful pursuit of their business at market, must keep a sharp look out for certain Knights of the Golden Circle, who HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 541 visit the market house to give the Tory organ a gratuitous circula tion. We advise our agricultural friends to keep an eye on these fellows. The Tory organ has become so mean and treasonable that it can find no one to purchase it. Oct. 3, 1863. "Sealed Proposals: Wanted, 500 tons of baled timothy hay; 50,000 of oats, and 30,000 bushels of corn. Signed, Alex. N. Shipley, A. Q. M., U. S. Army." Oct. 17, 1863. — The Copperhead press is now exhibiting their narrow partisan malignity by denouncing President Lincoln's admir able Thanksgiving Proclamation. They seem incapable of conceal ing their practical atheism and their sympathy with treason. Oct. 30, 1863. — The contract for disinterring the bodies of our soldiers on the Gettysburg battlefield and at the hospitals there, and again interring them in the Soldiers' National Cemetery, has been awarded to John Hoke and Franklin Biesecker, of Gettysburg, at $1.59 per body. The work is to commence at once. January 18, 1865. — Victory! A salute of one hundred guns was fired from Capitol Hill this forenoon in honor of the great Union victory at Fort Fisher. Glorious ! March 8, 1864. — Lieutenant-General U. S. Grant, the officially recognized hero of the war to crush out the Slaveholders' rebellion, arrived in Harrisburg at 6 A. M., en route from the West to the Federal capitol, in obedience to a summons from the President of the United States. In order to give the gallant hero the welcome he deserves, the legislature appointed a committee to wait on and receive General Grant when he arrived. When the train arrived from the West, Grant made his appearance and was greeted by an immense throng which lined the walk from the depot to the United States Hotel. In reality it was difficult for the committee to convey the chieftain and his staff to the hotel. After taking breakfast, Grant repaired to the parlors, where he received and freely con versed with as many as could get near to him and shake him by the hand. He seemed sanguine of the final victory of the Union forces, and soon departed for Washington over the Northern Central Rail road. March 24, 1864. — The canal basin is filled with a large num ber of old boats which the canal company are perfectly willing that any person or persons may remove and convert to their own use. The timber of these boats would make excellent fuel, and is worth the trouble removing it. We therefore give this notice for the bene fit of those interested and in want of fuel in these days of high prices of coal. May 28, 1864. — Old newspapers and other printed matter, formerly worth one cent per pound, are now purchased by the paper makers at eight cents per pound. By a process devised since the great value in paper stock, the ink is effectually removed and the paper manufactured, so as to be used again and again. A staple 542 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY in Harrisburg worth eight cents per pound ought not be thrown away or used for such purposes as kindling fires, for cheaper sub stances may be substituted. March 29, 1864. — Deserter Shot: About noon to-day a soldier named James Murphy of the 184th Pennsylvania regiment, was sent under guard to Camp Curtin. On the road to Camp, Mur phy attacked the guard, knocked him down, threw away his gun, and then attempted to escape. By the time he had run a distance of seventy-five yards the guard recovered his gun and fired on Murphy, the ball taking effect in the head and killing him instantly. The guard was a member of Captain Gowan's company, (Patapsco Guards), and in shooting Murphy was but discharging his duty. Thus has a "bounty-jumper" been brought to a sudden end. His fate should be a warning to the hundreds who have enlisted for the purpose of swindling the government. Aug. 4, 1864. — National Fast and Prayer Day. — To-morrow being set apart as a day of fasting and prayer, no paper will be issued from this office this afternoon. Our city subscribers will be served with the morning edition on Friday. Postmaster's Notice ! — To-morrow being a National fast and prayer day, the post office will only open from 7 =30 to 8 =30 A. M., and from 1 :oo to 3 :oo P. M. Aug. 6, 1864. — On the Rise: There has been a "rise" of sev eral feet in the Susquehanna in the past few days. This is very grat ifying, inasmuch as it puts an end to fording the stream, at present, either by Rebels or any one else ! Sept. 3, 1864. — Rejoicing and Mourning! One hundred guns were fired from Capitol Hill this afternoon in honor of the great victory achieved in the capture of Atlanta by Sherman's army. The Copperheads have had the blues — they do not like Union thunder — they do not profess to believe that Atlanta has really fallen. The rebellion in the South and Copperheadism in the North are totter ing, and will soon meet their final doom. Let loyal hearts rejoice. Oct. 1, 1864. — Soldiers' wives can obtain their vegetables free of charge by calling upon Mr. Mish, at his stand at Lower Market- house. This kindness on the part of Mr. Mish is worthy of com mendation. The wives of our patriotic soldiers will ever feel grate ful to him. Let others do likewise. Dec. 29, 1864. — To-day the ladies prepared a magnificent din ner which was served at the "Sick Soldiers' Rest," (near the depot) tendered to the members of Capt. B. C. Cook's company of the Sec ond Battalion, Veteran Reserve Corps. Everything that could be added to the elegance of the dinner was found upon the table, and the brave veterans of Capt. Cook's company (including the gallant Captain) and a few invited guests, were present. All-.had a pleasant time, enjoying the occasion to the fullest extent. Feb. 7, 1865. — "We are Coming Father Abraham!" A full HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 543 company of men raised under the late order of the Governor, arrived here last night and proceeded to Camp Curtin. No doubt others will speedily follow, and our city will again be enlivened by the pres ence of numerous strangers who answer to the call of the country. April 6, 1865. — Thanksgiving Jubilee: A mass meeting of the citizens of Harrisburg will be held in the court house this even ing to express our gratitude to Almighty God, and to our brave defenders who have paid the price of our glorious victories with their blood. Judge Pearson, Hon. John C. Kunkle, Hon. D. Flem ing, R. A. Lamberton, Revs. W. H. H. Snyder and J. W. Jack son, will speak and take part in the exercises. The friends of the Union soldiers will have an opportunity to make their thank-offering through the Christian Commission. Harrisburg' s Quota of Soldiers in 1864. — The action of the city council in January, 1864, fixed the matter of the prices to be paid as a bounty to the volunteers for the city of Harrisburg as fol lows: To Veterans, the Government bounty $400 To Veterans, the City bounty 200 To New Recruits, Government bounty 300 To New Recruits, City bounty 200 In addition to the above, if soldiers left parent or family, such members, or relation received a certain amount each month from the "county relief fund." At the close of the Civil War, July, 1865, Gold stood at $2.12 1-2; flour, $8.06 per barrel; rye flour, $5.06; wheat, $1,75 at $2.00; rye, $1.05; yellow corn, 96c; oats, 68c; kerosene ("petro leum") oil, crude, 33c, refined, 53c; whiskey, $2.15. Jan. 18, 1865. — Ten barrels of sauerkraut for the Twentieth Pennsylvania Regiment. — H. A. Smith and J. M. Hess, in con junction with workmen at the round house of the Pennsylvania Railway, took the necessary steps for raising the money to defray the expense of making "kraut." We now learn that ten barrels, holding each 40 gallons of the very best "sauer kraut" have been made. Twelve hundred heads of cabbage were required to fill these barrels. No article of diet could possibly be more acceptable to our boys in the army than this munificent gift. Would it not be well also to send a quantity of corn-fed pork, with the kraut? What say the butchers? January 24, 1865. — Markets: Flour, $10.65 bbl. ; mess pork, $38.25 per bbl.; lard, 23c. per lb.; Pennsylvania Ry. stock, 53c; gold, $2.01 1-2. 544 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY The following advertisement which was running in the local papers of Harrisburg in April, 1865, will give the reader of to-day an idea of the prices which obtained at the close of the Rebellion : Splendid bleached muslin, 25c, worth 35c. Wamsutta muslin, splendid quality, 50c, worth 60c. Lonsdale 4-4, 40c, worth 55 c. Unbleached muslin, at 33c, worth 45c. Unbleached muslin, yard wide, heavy, 60c. Goods were already rapidly declining, hence the above "cut rates" were offered by the dealer, S. Lewy. April 10, 1865. — A Night of Rejoicing: Sunday, April 9, 1865, will not soon be forgotten by the people of Harrisburg. The announcement of the fact that General Lee, the rebel leader, had surrendered his whole army to Lieut. Gen. Grant, caused every loyal man, woman and child to rejoice, and all gave full vent to their feelings by shouts for the Union and the "Stars and Stripes." All the bells in the city were rung for an hour or more, proclaiming victory to the people. An immense bonfire was kindled in Market Square, and the flames illuminated the whole city. The fire depart ment with its apparatus turned out and, headed by the soldiers and their excellent drum corps, paraded the streets, and the shouts of men, the beating of drums, the shrill whistle of the steamers, etc., rendered the occasion one of more than ordinary rejoicing. Many of the prominent residences and the Daily Telegraph office were brilliantly illuminated, the beautiful lamps of the Republican In- vincibles, adding to the beauty of the latter place. An able, short, but patriotic address was given by Rev. Jackson, whose remarks were preceded by the singing of "Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow." In the same issue of the Daily Telegraph appeared this notice: "Grand Jubilee in honor of the capture of Richmond. Saturday, April 15, is the day appointed, unless an earlier day shall be indicated by the President of the United States for a National celebration." [Then followed the long interesting program, all cut from the pages of transpired history, on account of the assassina tion of President Lincoln. The day was turned to one of great mourning.] April 13, 1865. — From a recent letter it is learned that Captain Simon Snyder, only eighteen years of age, a Harrisburg boy, was among the very first to enter the city of Richmond after its evacu ation by the rebels. April 15, 1865. — Lincoln's Assassination: From a dispatch from Washington dated Saturday, April 15, at 1:30 A. M., it is learned that about 9:30 P. M., at Ford's Theatre, the President, HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 545 while sitting in his private box with Mrs. Lincoln, Miss Harris and Major Rathburn, was shot by an assassin, who suddenly approached the box behind the President. The same day's Daily Telegraph contained the following : Official intelligence having just reached this city of the assas sination of the President of the United States, and of an assault upon the Secretary of State, which it is believed, must also prove fatal. It is ordered by the undersigned, representing the committee of arrangements appointed by the citizens of Harrisburg to cele brate, on this day, by a grand civic procession, the recent victories of the army of the Union, that such demonstration be and the same is hereby postponed for the present, and all citizens are respectfully requested to lower to half-mast their flags provided for the celebra tion, and that the deep grief of the community, in view of this melancholy occurrence, may be indicated instead of the joy which those flags are intended to signify, these emblems be draped in mourning. Citizens are also respectfully requested to suspend all business during the day. [Signed] A. L. Russell, Chief Marshal. An extract from an editorial in the Telegraph April 15, 1865, says : Instead of being jubilant we are sad. The mirthful crowd of yesterday is weeping today. • The thousands of flags that floated yesterday in the breeze are today shrouded in mourning. The bells instead of sounding forth their merry peals in honor of victory, have tolled on account of the death of the greatest man of the age. A mighty man has fallen and the entire nation mourns. Our people feel that in the death of Abraham Lincoln a vacancy has been made which cannot be filled by an equal of the departed states man. In view of the sad event, the celebration was indefinitely post poned, and the streets were thronged by crowds anxious to hear the latest news relative to the hellish deed perpetrated in Washington. At noon all the bells were tolled, and in the afternoon religious ser vices were held in Locust Street M. E. church. The exercises were very solemn and attended by a large concourse of people. A national salute was fired at noon. April 24, 1865. — The mortal remains of the murdered Pres ident of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, reached the capital of Pennsylvania at 8 =30 P. M., Friday evening, in charge of Major- General George Cadwallader, who was specially ordered by the Secretary of War to guard the corpse through the lines, on its 546 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY mournful passage to the tomb at Springfield, Illinois. Governor Cur tin and staff, under whose general orders the remains of the mur dered President were received into and conveyed out of the state, proceeded to the state line on Friday afternoon, in company with Gen. Cadwallader and staff, to escort the corpse to the capital of the commonwealth. The arrangements to receive the remains, on the part of the municipal authorities and people of Harrisburg, were of the most appropriate character, and from beginning to end, th proceedings were marked with fervor, deep solemnity and sadness appropriate to the occasion and the memory of the truly illustrious dead. At 9 130 P. M., the corpse was placed on the catafalque in front of the desk of the clerk of the House of Representatives. From the Depot to the Capitol. — In spite of the lowering clouds, in defiance of the rain, the escort from the depot to the Capitol was at once imposing and grand. Aided by chemical lights arranged for the occasion, the route of the procession was suf ficiently illuminated for observation, while the effect of the light, as it fell on the somber hue of the funeral car and lit up the faces of the bronzed veterans who acted as guards on the occasion, was grand beyond description. Before the head of the line reached Market street, a terrific deluge ensued, with lightning and thunder, shaking heaven's firm masonry and illuminating at intervals the deep pall which nature. had spread over the scene. In the midst of this storm the line marched on, solemn and steady, the explosion of guns answering the muffled tolling of bells, the lightnings of heaven reveal ing the sadness of many thousand faces, while men, women and chil dren seemed forgetful of themselves in the generous manifestation of respect for the passing cortege of the dead. When the head of the line reached the capitol, the cavalry and artillery in the escort drew up in open order, while the infantry and civil portion of the columns proceeded to the capitol in charge of the hearse, which reached the building in order, and the coffin taken in charge by the pall bearers. The throng at Capitol Hill was immense, and, notwithstandng the rainstorm which prevailed the entire night, the greater portion of the mass of human beings waiting for a glance at the corpse was composed of ladies. At least five thousand men and women passed with patriotic reverence before the corpse of the slain chieftain. The spectacle was solemn, grand and suggestive. At midnight on Friday the capitol was closed, hundreds of peo ple being compelled to forego a view of the remains until Satur day morning, when all trains entering the city brought their thou sands in the aggregate, to swell the number who still wanted to see the dead President's face. Long before the time for opening the capitol, hundreds stood in the drenching rain and on wet pave ments — ladies and children unused to such severe exposure. Standing on Front, and viewing the scene along State street to HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 547 the gates of the capitol yard, and thence over the hill to the portico of the capitol, the spectacle was at once sublime and interesting. Not less than ten thousand people occupied the sidewalk along State street and the Capitol Hill. The greater portion of that vast body consisted of women and children. Indeed, none so well know how to mourn the dead as women and children. The vision of hun dreds of little children was directed to the hearse as it moved along with its precious burden. The tearflowing eyes of the matrons and virgins of the city>offered such tributes as only true worth and real manhood and exalted patriotism could elicit from the good. And it is such manifestations which attest a nation's anguish better than tolling bells and more eloquent than inspired oratory, and more impressively than booming cannon. In proper order and time the troops, and various civic dele gations were withdrawn from the line and marched to their respec tive headquarters. Thus ended the most solemn, the most sacred and most sublime spectacle ever witnessed by the people of Harris burg. Thus, too, passed from our sight the prince of martyrs — the emancipator of the enslaved — the truest friend of freedom the cen tury has produced — and, next to Washington, the best ruler the nation ever had ! July 4, 1865. — At least ten thousand persons participated in the festivities, the parade and the banquet on Capitol Hill. The decorations of the city were the most beautiful ever seen here, con sisting of arches, flags, transparencies, festoons, wreathes, etc., while at night the illumination was beyond all question the most beautiful spectacle ever presented to the people of Harrisburg. The ladies of the city deserve the especal thanks of all loyal men. They worked for several evenings and days in preparing the spruce and other decora tions for the immense arches. The union men devoted a large portion of their time to complete the arrangements for the celebration. Full two weeks were devoted by the committees to the work of render ing the preparation complete. Not an hour's labor, nor a dollar in money, was contributed by a "Copperhead," and no thanks are due to them for the success of the celebration. July 13, 1865. — A sale of two hundred government (army) horses was conducted in this city yesterday and today by Capt. Reich- enbach. All but sixty were sold the first day. A large number of bidders were present, and high prices were realized. These horses had not been condemned, but were sold for want of use, the war hav ing closed. The animals were in excellent condition, and bidding was spirited; in many instances reached to high prices. A large number brought $260 each. This was much more than the govern ment had paid for the same horses several months before. July 13, 1865. — The officers of the United States Sanitary Commission have issued a farewell address to the branches and Aid Societies, stating that no further collections of supplies or money 548 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY need be made. "The work of the Commission is almost done, and no further requisitions will be made upon the public. The branches of the Sanitary Commission and Aid Societies are hereby requested to forward such supplies as they have on hand." The officers then said: "We have tried to do our duty impartially, diligently, wisely. For the means of carrying on this vast work, which has grown upon our hands, keeping pace with the growing immensity of the Civil War, and which we are now about to lay down after giving the American public an account of our stewardship, we are chiefly indebted to the money created by the Fairs which American women have inaugurated and conducted and to the supplies collected by you, under the organization we represent. The soldier will return to his home to thank his own wife, mother, sister, daughter and sweet heart, for so tenderly looking after his interest in camp and field; in hospital and prison, and thus it will be seen that it is the homes of this country which have wrought out this great salvation, and that the men and women of America have an equal part in its glory and its joy. Invoking the blessing of God upon you all, we are grate fully and proudly your fellow laborers." Philadelphia Press, Nov. 14, 1865. — Reception of Colored Troops. This is a day that will be long remembered by the colored people of the state of Pennsylvania. In view of the large number of colored soldiers who are coming home, many of whom pass through the city, it was determined by the colored people of Harrisburg that they should have a fitting reception accorded to them. A committee was organized and Mr. George E. Stephens, one of the original members of the 54th Massachusetts Volunteers, who was promoted to first lieutenant, was elected to mature the plans. He issued a cir cular, the last paragraph of which enjoined the attention of the sol diers that they observe the utmost decorum, each man striving to the best of his ability to win the respect of all present. All last evening the streets were alive with soldiers and their friends, but there was not the slightest confusion. They remembered that all were looking upon their conduct. Today the procession began to form on State street, north of the capitol. By 10 A. M. the great column was in motion. T. Morris Chester, of Harrisburg, acted as chief marshal, assisted by a number of aids. They passed through many streets to the residence of General Simon Cameron, on Front street. The line was drawn up in front of his house, when the old patriot appeared and was received with all the honors possible. He then spoke to the troops as follows : "I cannot let this opportunity pass without thanking the Afri can soldiers for the compliment they have paid me, but more than all to thank them for the great service which they have been to their country in this terrible rebellion. I never doubted that the people of African descent would play a great part in this struggle, and I am proud to say that all my anticipations have been more than HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 549 realized. Your services, offered in the early part of the war, were refused; but when the struggle became one of life and death, then the country gallantly received you, and thank God you nobly responded and redeemed as you promised. [Applause]. Like all other men, you have your destiny in your hands, and if you continue to conduct yourselves hereafter as in the past, you will have all the rights you ask for, all the rights belonging to human beings. [Applause]. I can truly say again, I thank you, I thank you from my heart for all you have done for your country, and I know the country will hold you in grateful remembrance. "I cannot close without saying that there is at the head of the national government a great man who is able and determined to deal justly with you. I know that with his approval no state that was in rebellion will be allowed to return to the benefits of the Union, without first having a constitutional compact which will prevent slavery in the land for all time to come ; which will make all men free and equal before the law; which will prescribe no distinction of color on the witness stand and in the jury box, and which will protect the homes and the domestic relations of all men and women. He will insist, too, on the repudiation of all debts contracted for the support of the rebellion. Remember, when this war began there were four million of slaves in this country unprotected by law. Now all men are made free by the law. Thank God for all this ! For He alone has accomplished this work !" Prayer was then offered by Rev. J. Walker Jackson, followed by a deep, hearty "Amen! and Amen!" from the entire assembly. Letters were then read from Major-General George G. Meade and General B. F. Butler, both in well chosen words, sent regrets that they could not be present. The band then struck up, "Tramp, Tramp, Tramp," after which the president introduced the orator of the day, Prof. William Howard Day, of New York. The speech was very long, and replete with wonderful eloquence and logic. This closed the exercises at the capitol. A meeting was held at the court house in the evening, followed by a grand ball at Brant's Hall. Parts of the 3rd, 6th, 8th, 22nd, 24th, 32nd, 41st, 43rd, 45th and 127th regiments were present. The nth U. S. Heavy Artillery (colored) and the 54th and 55th Massachusetts Volunteers were also represented. Youngest Civil IVar Soldier. — The local historians, and the Daily Telegraph of September 15, 1885, claim the records show that Captain John C. Delaney, former Senate Librarian, was born April 22, 1848, and enlisted, January 6, 1862, when he was thirteen years, eight months and fourteen days, of age — three months young er than any other Civil War soldier. He was promoted at different 550 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY times, until he was finally made brevet captain, the youngest com missioned officer in the United States; he participated in twenty-six battles, was taken prisoner six times, each time escaping, and was wounded at Antietam. IN MEMORIAM. Washington' s Death Mourned. — That the people of Dauphin county have ever had great loyalty and love for the leaders and rul ers in the Nation may be evinced from press accounts of a very early date. The "Oracle of Dauphin" of December 30, 1799, contained the following, set in its columns in deepest of mourning : At a meeting of a number of gentlemen of Harrisburg, at Capt. Lee's [old Washington House] on Monday evening, De cember 23, it was among other resolutions, Resolved, That as a mark of our unfeigned regret upon this melancholy occasion, we and our respective families, will wear mourning for one month; and that we will recommend to such of our fellow-citizens as have similar feelings, to unite with us in this small testimonial of respect and veneration for his (Washington's) illustrious character. The citizens almost universally carried out these resolutions. January 9, 1800, the citizens of Middletown and surrounding country testified to their sorrow for the loss of the nation's favorite, by meeting at the farm-house of George Fisher, Esq., and moving therefrom in procession to the meeting-house. They marched in the following order: Trumpeter. Cavalry on foot, Swords drawn. Infantry, arms reversed, by platoons inverted. Rifle Company, arms reversed. Militia Officers in Uniform. Music. Standard. Surgeons. Clergy. Pall Bearers. Young Ladies in White. Ancient Citizens first. Citizens in general by two. Boys by pairs. HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 551 Having arrived at the meeting-house, the troops formed in lines, right and left, when the clergy, pall bearers and citizens en tered, followed by the troops, while the Dead March from Saul was performed by the organist. The exercises were opened by a short prayer, and singing part of the 90th Psalm. Rev. Mr. Snow- den and Rev. Mr. Moeller then delivered impressive and well adapted addresses. Most of the military who joined in the proces sion were from Harrisburg. In Memoriam of Pnsidents Garfield and McKinley. — Harris burg has ever been noted for its hospitality to strangers; to its rev erence for the aged; for its patriotism and manifestations of sorrow upon the death of her fellow-citizens. Hence the news of President James A. Garfield's death gave another sad opportunity to show their respect for the departed dead. No better account of this affair can be here given than to quote from the columns of the Daily Tele graph, beginning with the issue of September 20, 1881, the head lines reading: "At Rest — The Nation's Sufferer Dies — President Garfield's End — Put out of the way By An Assassin's Bullet — At The Death Bed — A Painful End — Vice President Arthur Sworn In At New York — Mr. Garfield's Great Fortitude — Scenes At Elberon." An editorial reads : The nation's worst fears are finally realized. Its much loved and respected chief magistrate has been removed by death. When the shades of night wrapped the world in darkness last evening, it seemed as if the hearts of the people were enshrouded. All feared the awful end was nigh. The event looked for but so happily post poned from week to' week, seemed imminent. After the last bulletin there seemed no hope. Still when the wire flashed the simple message — HThe President is dead," no one seemed prepared for it. All were overcome by the common presence of death,, an event the peo ple had been schooling themselves to meet ever since the assassin's bullet was fired, July 2. By 10 P. M. last evening, the streets of Harrisburg were almost deserted. The evening bulletin had quieted the very serious appre hension felt, because it gave the President's pulse at 104 — a favor able condition, but to those inclined to look on the dark side, the decrease in heart-beats was evidence that the President was sinking into his last sleep. At 10.55 P- M. the solitary operators sat in the Western Union office, and was aroused by the click of his instrument, that flashed the news — "The President Is Dead" ! There was nobody in the of- 552 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY fice at the time, but soon afterward an enquiry was made for news. "The President is Dead," slowly announced the operator. "The President is Dead" was then whispered on the silent streets. The court house bell struck one! "The President Is Dead" !' Five min utes later the bells of the city- tolled and rang out the words — "The President Is Dead." No need of details — the people knew its mean ing — for long weeks they had dreaded it; for days they had waited for it, hoping it would never come. "The President Is Dead," said all, and then "God rest his Soul, and curses on the man who< wrought his death." In a moment after the bells first rang, the streets were filled by thousands of people carrying sad hearts. "Is it true"? asked new comers, with bated breath, as they reached the centre of the city. "Yes, it is true" ! The fearful news fell with a crushing blow on the citizens of Harrisburg. Groups of men gathered on the corner of the streets sorrowing and some cursing — all were sad. On one of the principal streets a gentleman stood on the steps and said : "I, for one, will go to Washington and help tramp the villain into the earth." The assassin would have fared sorry indeed at the hands of a Harrisburg crowd that moment. Far into the early morning hours the people stood about the Daily Telegraph office, waiting more news — none came, the President was dead ! The next thing was to provide some means to show appropriate mourning, and dark fabrics of all kinds were hurriedly bought and by midnight the principal hotels, business houses and many of the residences, were draped black. The employes of the Arsenal were ordered to fire the customary salute on the death of a President — half-hour guns between sunrise and sunset. At sunrise the booming of a cannon at the Arsenal awoke the city from its sleep, which had been short, and as the guns were heard throughout the rural vicini ties, sadness became universal and oppressive. The firing was then continued all day. As the city of Harrisburg was already draped in heavy mourn ing, it recalled vividly the morning when the news of Lincoln's as sassination became known here. But little business was done in the shops and stores, up to ten A. M., when assembled the meeting called by Mayor Herman at the court house. By that hour every yard of black crepe, or other suitable black goods had been procured that was in the city, and hung over doorways, windows, balconies and about the eaves of buildings. In workshop, counting-room, at the counters of merchants, the desks of bankers, the same manly dis play of sincere grief was seen, while cheeks which had not felt the briny moisture of a tear for many a year, were wet with their flow in relief for the overflowing sadness of hearts which had for many months bent in sympathy with the suffering man and his bereaved family. The drapery in Harrisburg was very general and managed with much good taste and artistic skill. The gables and cornice over HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 553 the court house front, with the columns, were all hung with crepe in heavy folds and huge pendants. The doors and windows of the lower floor beng also heavily draped. At the Mayor's office, the doors and windows were hung with crepe festooned and draped with fine effect. The Daily Telegraph office was draped on its Market and Third street fronts, a distance of 130 feet. Hundreds of flags were displayed at half-mast and draped in every part of the city, from the top of factories, work shops, towers, etc. The manifestations among the workmen in the various shops, were perhaps, as fervent a display of the general grief as made in any other way. The state capitol buildings were the heaviest draped of all the buildings in our city. At the court house, Senator Herr opened the meeting and named General Cameron as presiding officer. The following gen tlemen were chosen vice-presidents: J. D. Cameron, Governor H. M. Hoyt, Major J. C. Herman, Judge Pearson, Judge Henderson, Rev. Dr. Robinson, Rev. Dr. Keeling, Right Rev. J. F. Shanahan, Henry Gilbert, James McCormick, Hamilton Alricks, W. T. Hil- drup, C. A. Bailey, W. O. Hickok, J. G. M. Bay, James Boyd, Dr. George W. Porter, Rev. C. H. Forney, R. F. Kelker, David Mumma, C. F. Muench, William R. Gorgas, George W. Reily, W. W. Jennings, A. J. Dull, Daniel Eppley, J. J. Clyde, J. C. Bom- berger, William K. Alricks, Dr. Mortimer O'Connor, Dr. T. J. DuNott, J. V. Einstein, George H. Irwin, Joseph McAlarney. Numerous addresses were made including this brief one by S. J. M. McCarrell, Esq. : "This is an unusual meeting. The citizen, the soldier, the statesman, the President is dead, and to-day the Nation is stricken. The wail of a stricken people finds its way to the ear of an Almighty God. We cannot understand why this should fall upon us, but let it be said 'It is the Lord.' I have thought to-day of the words of divine inspiration, uttered by James A. Garfield, when President Lincoln was assassinated : 'The Lord reigns and the Government at Washington still lives.' Such a message he would send us to-day could he talk to his stricken people." President William McKinley's Death. — A little less than two decades passed between the assassination of Mr. Garfield and Mr. McKinley. The same newspaper from which the above is extracted was called upon to chronicle the memorial services of President Mc Kinley in the following words : Sept. 14, 1 90 1. — A public meeting will be held to-night at 8 o'clock, in the Hall of the Board of Trade, to give the city of Har risburg an opportunity to express their sincere bereavement in the death of the President of the United States. [Signed.] John A. Fritchey, Mayor. 554 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY The death of President McKinley was no less a shock to the people of Harrisburg, because of the lapse of a week after the as sassin's attack. The Daily Telegraph of September 14, 1901, said: When the 7.30 bulletin announced that all hope had been abandoned and that he had taken leave of those about him, the great throng in front of this office became hushed and patiently waited the end. Each change was noted on the bulletin-boards and announced through a megaphone and at 2.15 a. m. the tolling of the bells at the court-house was a signal to the city, that the end had come. Subsequently the bells on the fire engine houses were tolled for a half hour. Within five minutes of the receipt of the telegram announcing the President's death, an extra edition of the "Tele graph" was issued and sent to all parts of the city and on the early trains to points throughout the surrounding counties. With the dawn of the morning the draping of the public buildings, business houses, residences, etc., was fully commenced. (Sept. 16, 1 90 1.) — "Thousands of people quit their employ ment to-day to pay their last sad tribute of respect to the late Presi dent McKinley, as the funeral train slowly passed through our city. At 4 P. M. every inch of space about the Union Station was occu pied by men, women and children and at every point along the rail way tracks, within the limits of the city, stood scores and hun dreds, with bared heads, as the funeral train passed by. Many bus iness places were closed; also the State, County, and City Offices. Our city mingled its tears with those of the great Nations of earth. Thirty-minute guns were fired at the Pa. State Arsenal, during the day, and at sunset the National salute of twenty-one guns will be fired by order of Governor Stone. All the military companies of Harrisburg were at the Union Station and delegations of the Grand Army, Sons of Veterans and other societies, saluted the train as it rolled into the station. The Telegraph had distributed printed slips, containing hymns "America," "Nearer My God to Thee," "Lead Kindly Light," etc. All the bells of the city were tolled and the chimes of Zions Lutheran Church rendered suitable selections. The train was scheduled to arrive at 4.45 P. M. and remain five minutes, only, for change of engines. Only the engines and the funeral car were draped in black. Behind the drawn blinds, were Mrs. McKinley, President Roosevelt, the Cabinet and other high dignitaries of the Government. A fine silk flag completely covered the casket, which was elevated on a bier in the car. Two sheaves of ripened wheat crossed the breast. A white dove with out-stretched wings seemed to be rising from the head of the casket. Standing at the foot of the casket was a soldier of the U. S. Army, uniformed HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 555 and accoutred with a gun at "order arms" ; at the head stood a sailor with drawn cutlass, "at shoulder." The following Sunday appropriate memorial services were held in nearly all the city churches here. At the Grace Methodist Church Dr. Hill, in an eloquent manner addressed fully 1,500 people. Wednesday, September 18, was set apart, by order of the Governor, as a day of mourning and was generally observed throughout Harrisburg. HARRISBURG AND THE "STAR SPANGLED BANNER." Two quite noted citizens of Harrisburg originated the adop tion of the tune which was set to the words written by Francis Scott Key, and known as "The Star Spangled Banner." The history is told in the following, which appeared in the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, in July, 1905, the same being from the pen of the well known old-time resident of Harrisburg, George B. Ayres who speaks of George J. Heisely, another Harrisburger, who resided at the northwest corner of Walnut and Second streets, and was a maker of mathematical instruments, clocks, watches and jewelry. The let ter reads as follows : "I was much interested in a late contribution to the "Penn" de partment of your columns, by Oscar Durang, concerning the tune of our 'Star-Spangled Banner.' "I am possessed of some facts regarding the matter, hence please let me relate them. Among the acquaintances of my early manhood at Harrisburg, many years ago, was George J. Heisely, an estimable veteran of the war of 18 12-14, a native of Frederick, Maryland, with whom as boys they grew up together. "In the war of 1812, when the call Avas made for the defense of Baltimore, a company of one hundred and forty-four volunteers marched from Harrisburg to rendezvous at York. Among them were Mr. Heisely and two brothers named Charles and Ferdinand Durang, actors by profession. Mr. Heisely was a maker of mathe matical instruments, and an amateur flute player. He took with him on the march his flute and tune book, for entertainment. It so happened that a copy of Key's stirring verses reached their camp. Ferdinand Durang's dramatic instinct at once prompted the wish for a melody to suit the meter of Key's lines. Of course the only musical source at hand was Mr. Heisely's tune book. Among its contents they found a piece entitled 'Anacreon in Heaven,' which seemed to fit the words, and doubtless Durang's voice and Heisely's flute-notes blended many times over the old tune which they were fitting for a new life. And so they adopted it — little thinking they were building for immortal use the tune which we now know as 556 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 'The Star-Spangled Banner.' After the company reached Balti more and was encamped on Gallows Hill, the brothers Durang se cured a furlough, and created great enthusiasm by singing the new patriotic song on the stage of Holliday's street theatre. "My friend Heisely — whose story of the song I have related — lived to become an octogenarian; but the memory of Frank Key and his immortal song remained ever green with him. I have, my self, been a flutist over sixty years, and I remember distinctly that 'Anacreon in Heaven' was a tune common to the music collections of my early days. (Signed) "George B. Ayres." The Famous Camel-Back Bridge. EARLY AND PRESENT BRIDGES. (Data chiefly furnished by William A. Kelker.) By an act of the Pennsylvania legislature approved April 2,, 181 1, the governor of the commonwealth was "authorized to sub scribe a sum, not exceeding $90,000 to the stock of a company which may hereafter be incorporated for building a bridge over the Sus- HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 557 quehanna at Harrisburg; one-half to be paid when the piers and abutments shall have been constructed, and the other when the su perstructure shall have been raised." The same act made appropria tions for similar bridges at Northumberland, Columbia and Mc Call's Ferry. The act authorizing the bridge was passed April 3, 1809. The company to construct the bridge at Harrisburg, was chartered July 6, 18 12, and organized on August 8, following. The first foundation stone was laid December 2, 18 12. The officers and directors of this bridge company were as follows : Thomas Elder, president; John Downey, treasurer; Jacob Hildeman, John Ritchey, George Brenizer, Samuel C. Wiestling, John Howard, William Bryson, George Hoyer, Jacob Boas, Henry Beader, Michael Krehl, John Mytinger, directors of the stock company. The first toll was received from passage over this bridge Octo ber 16, 1 8 16. The bridge and toll-house were completed in 18 17, at a total cost of $192,138. It was built on the "Burr plan," and was separated by Fosters Island. Its total length, including the isl and, was two-thirds of a mile, width forty feet, with an elevation of fifty feet. It was built by Theodore Burr. That portion of the bridge between the island and the bor ough of Harrisburg was swept away by the great freshet of March 15, 1846, and for about eighteen months afterwards the passage was made to and from the island by means of "rope ferry." The rope employed for this purpose was about three inches in diameter and suspended between the two abutments, supported in the center by masts on the piers. The flats were connected to this rope by two small guy ropes, and by an ingenious contrivance were propelled across the streams by the action of the descending current. The rope in high water periods frequently obstructed the passage of rafts and "arks" descending the river, and was finally cut by one of the in censed river men with an axe. A new structure spanned the stream at this point, being finished September 20, 1847. May 25, 1866, the last section was burned, and re-built ready to use in November, 1867. The whole structure was injured by the flood of March 2, 1902. The property was sold to the United Ice and Coal Company, and removed during Au gust, September and October, 1902, after which the present fine steel structure was erected. It was built by the Pennsylvania Steel Company, and completed November 10, 1903. At this date (April, 1905), it is a toll bridge, charging two cents for footmen. The original structure — the old wooden bridge — was known as the "Camel-back" bridge, and this was the one cut in two by General Crunch in time of the Civil War, to prevent the rebels from entering 558 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY the city. It was, however, easily repaired, as the spans were not misplaced, but cut so they could have been on short notice. Cumberland Valley Railroad Bridge. — The first bridge owned by the Cumberland Valley railroad, across the Susquehanna river, was commenced in the summer of 1836. It was built upon the lat tice plan, with three frames, and covered with a strong deck of three- inch plank, laid watertight to' protect the timbers from the weather. It was a sort of combination bridge. The under part of the frame work was arranged for two carriage ways for common road vehi cles and two footpaths for passengers. By an act of the legislature, however, the company was prohibited from using it for any other than railroad purposes until the year 1841. The carriage-ways were thirteen feet high in the clear, and nine feet and one-half wide. Thje main bridge was four thousand feet long, and comprised thirty-three spans of about one hundred and sixty-five feet each. The highest piers were forty-two feet above low water mark. The western end was twenty feet higher than the Harrisburg end. This plan was adopted to reduce a heavy grade on the Cumberland side of the riv er. The total cost of the bridge was $1 10,000. Of this, the mason work cost $40,000, and the framing and construction cost $30,000. The railway track was completed and the bridge publicly opened January 16, 1839. The first trip was made from the west end of the structure. The train consisted of three locomotives, three double passenger cars and two baggage cars — the locomotive named "Nicholas Biddle" taking the lead. The president, managers, and engineers of the company, together with the bridge contractors, and about three hundred gentlemen present by special invitation, occu pied the cars and engines. Several thousand people assembled on the bank of the majestic Susquehanna, to witness the opening cere mony, which was indeed an inspiring spectacle. This splendid structure (for so early a day in the art of bridge building) was burned, excepting four spans, at its eastern end, De cember, 1844. Another — better than this — was completed in 1846. The second bridge stood until about 1856, and was removed for one more modern, and the work was carried on without serious in terruption to car travel. The part crossing the island was built of iron, as a safeguard against fires at either end. The company sold its right to collect tolls over this bridge to the Harrisburg Bridge Company, January 4, 1855. From a personally kept memo randa made by Rudolph F. Kelker, the following dates are estab lished beyond doubt : May 7, 1836, Cumberland Valley Railroad Bridge located op posite Mulberry street. HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 559 May 9, 1836, ground first broke for abutment on the east side of the river. June 18, 1838, commenced laying timber of bridge. January 16, 1839, at two-and-a-half o'clock, P. M., first loco motive crossed the river on the bridge. With the advance in railroad tonnage and heavier rolling stock, this structure had to be supported and re-enforced at different times —in 1872 partly re-built, and in 1885-6 rebuilt. The 1886-7 struc ture is an all iron bridge, and has stood the most severe tests of all the floods and immense freight train service, and never shown a weak point as yet. It was built by the Union Bridge Company and Edge Moor Iron Company. The "Unfinished Bridge." — The splendid mason-work piers which dot the waters of the Susquehanna, just above the Cumber land Valley bridge, were built by the Southern Pennsylvania Rail road Company, beginning April, 1 884. It was to be an. independent line, but litigation and court decisions thwarted the plans of the company, and it was never built. These piers now are supposed to belong to the Cumberland Valley Company. The Philadelphia and Reading Railroad bridge was com menced by work on its piers, March, 1890, and completed January 8, 1 89 1. It is the longest structure of all, and is all steel of a mod ern type, high above any high-water mark. The People's Bridge, the farthest up stream of any at Harris burg, is a fine structure built of steel, on modern plans, and over it teams, footmen and street cars are allowed to' pass. It was com pleted in 1890. It is one of the two public thoroughfares spanning the Susquehanna river between Dauphin and Cumberland counties at Harrisburg. Great Stone Arch Bridge. — The finest bridge structure within the state and the longest in America of the all stone arch type, is that of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company at Rockville, about four miles up the Susquehanna river from the city of Harrisburg. It is more than three-quarters of a mile in length; (3,798 feet) , con tains forty-seven arches seventy feet long and fifty feet wide, upon which are laid four tracks. (The Railway Gazette of October 25, 1 90 1, is the authority for the plan and dimensions herein given.) The construction was let to two contracting firms — Drake & Stratton Company, having the east end, and H. S. Kerbaugh the west end. The plans were made under direction of Chief Engineer William H. Brown, by H. S. Righter, while the contract work was supervised by George Nauman. The first stone was laid May 1, 560 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 1900. It contains 100,000 cubic yards of Masonry, and cost $855,- 000. The western end is five hundred feet lower down stream than the center of the old bridge at the same point, and forty feet on the east end. It runs at right angles to the streams main current. The length between the abutments along the springing-line is 3,791 feet. It has forty-eight spans, each seventy feet, and its piers number for ty-two, eight feet wide, and five abutment-piers, nineteen feet each. The width of the top, between the outside coping, is fifty-two feet. In reality this structure is six complete bridges, divided by the abut ments on each end, and six abutment-piers every eighth pier being an, abutment-pier with a width over twice as great as the ordinary ones. The bridge stands on a solid natural rock river bottom. Cop per dams were built for each pier, and puddled with clay from nearby. The stone is a white sandstone, commonly found in the bituminous coal region, and all came from Pennsylvania quarries, mostly from Clearfield, Cambria, Beaver, Indiana and Westmore land counties. Many new quarries were opened by hundreds of workmen, especially for this work. The piers are built of twenty- four inch stone. Cement, cinders and asphalt are the top coating of the bridge, together with the ordinary lime-rock ballast between the rails. The last keystone in the last arch, was set September 19, 1 90 1. The bridge is straight and level, except four spans on each end of the structure. The bridge was opened for travel Sunday morning at 9 o'clock, (Easter Sunday), March 30, 1902. The first train to cross it was the "Atlantic Express," a long passenger train. It was greeted by a multitude of sight-seers on the Dauphin county side. Cheer upon cheer went up, both from visitors and from passengers, whose heads were out of the windows. Several railroad officials were on the train. It is a massive piece of solid masonry spanning the river be tween two mountain points, where the natural scenery is most pic turesque, and, since its completion, the scene has been made the sub ject of many beautiful paintings, photographs and engravings. It is also used as a design for many souvenirs in silver and chinaware. The first railroad bridge at this point was a few rods up stream. This was a wooden bridge built in 1847-8, and had six spans, which were destroyed before fully completed, by a tornado in March, 1849. The bridge was finally completed, and served until about 1874, when a steel bridge took its place. This bridge, which was 3,670 feet in length, served until the present arch bridge was con structed. Market Street Bridge Entrance. The saying, that "A thing HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 561 of beauty is a joy forever," was exemplified at the formal dedica tion and opening of the Market Street Bridge Entrance to Harris burg, on Friday, April 20, 1906, at four o'clock in the afternoon when thousands of citizens and school children took part in the im pressive ceremonies. This was the date fixed for the formal turn ing over of the decorated bridge entrance to the city by its donors, and they in turn to the City Park Commission, who are to have charge of it, as it forms a portion of the River Park frontage. Previous to the completion of this fine, unique entrance, the approach was of the ordinary type, and was not in keeping with the recent improvements in Harrisburg. This really marked a new era in the history of the old highway crossing the Susquehanna river at this point. It will not only be appreciated for its beauty of de sign, but on account of its historical features, it being a permanent landmark of the old "Camel-Back" bridge, with all the early-day associations which cluster about that portion of the city. Again, the massive columns, of a sightly elevation, standing sentinel-like on either side of the roadway, are pillars from the old Department of Internal Affairs building that stood near the old State Capitol before it burned in 1897. These are upon solid granite bases, each of which has been provided with elaborate bronze tablets, illustrat ing the old State House and the old Camel-back bridge environ ments, with historic inscriptions as follows : The north tablet showing the old capitol bears these words : "Built 1819-20 — The Old State Capitol — Burned February 2, 1897. These columns are from the old State Capitol Buildings Have been erected Here, and the Entrance to the Bridge Has been Constructed by the Family of the Late Colonel Henry McCormick, under the Direction of the Harrisburg Park Commission and the Civic Club, of Harrisburg, A. D. 1905." The tablet on the south pillar bears this inscription, with a base relief representation of the old bridge : "The Harrisburg Bridge Company, Incorporated, July 6, 1 8 1 2. The Old Camel-back Bridge was Euilt by Theodore Burr at a Cost of $192,138, In 1 8 13-16, the First Toll Being Taken Octo ber 16, 1 8 16. The Eastern Portion Was Destroyed by Flood, March 15, 1846, Was Rebuilt and Opened September 20, 1847; Was Destroyed by Fire May 25, 1896. Both Parts Were De stroyed by Flood March 2, 1902. The New Bridge Was Opened February 27, 1904." Each pillar stands in the center of a small plaza to which lead 562 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY • wide walks, continuations of the sidewalks of Market street. Grass plots are on each side and about the red brick copings, which are capped with white granite. The toll house is of brick, and its wall is the original cornerstone of the old bridge. Heavy electroliers and brick gate . posts add to the substantiality of the decorative scheme. The following was the program at the formal opening : Hon. Lyman D. Gilbert presided for the Civic Club. Singing of the "Star Spangled Banner," by the schools, under direction of Pro fessor O. W. Miller. Prayer by Rev. Dr. George S. Chambers, of Pine Street Presbyterian Church. Presentation to the City of Har risburg, on behalf of the Civic Club, of the adorned approach to the city, by Henry B. McCormick, Esq. Acceptance by Mayor Edward Z. Gross, on behalf of the city, and presentation to the Park Commission. Acceptance on behalf of the Park Commis sion, by J. Horrace McFarland, Esq. Address by Rev. John De- Witt, D. D. LL. D., of Princeton Theological Seminary. Sing ing, "America," by the League of Good Citizenship and audience. Benediction, Bishop James Henry Darlington, of the Harrisburg diocese. This magnificent entrance was first conceived of by a lady of the city, and the suggestions put into operation by the ladies of the Civic Club ; and, when the plan was made public, the family of the late Colonel Henry B. McCormick, who' were interested in the ownership of the bridge, made the generous proposition to' furnish still further funds for beautifying the spot, and furnished fine stone walls and excellent paving, etc. The work consumed almost one year. When finally completed the imposing entrance was for mally dedicated. The occasion was one of patriotic pride, and the ceremonies made a lasting impression on the vast assembly pres ent. A memorial gateway to the entrance of Paxton churchyard was provided by the society of the Daughters of the American Rev olution of Harrisburg in the autumn of 1906. It is a magnificent archway on either side of which is placed bronze tablets, contain ing the names of sixty-fi»ve soldiers and patriots of Colonial, Revolutionary, French and Indian and other wars, in whose mem ory the archway was made, and whose ashes repose in that ancient, and now almost sacred burial spot. When it was presented to the Presbyterian society, at Paxton, October 8, 1906, with impressive ceremonies. Hundreds of the descendants of the fallen heroes were present, and addresses were made, including that of Rev. Dr. Richie Smith, of Market Square Presbyterian Church of Harrisburg, HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 563 and Mr. Browne, a descendant of General Israel Putnam, at the conclusion of which the key to the churchyard was given over to J. Q. A. Rutherford, one of the trustees of the church at Paxton, by the regent of the Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution, Miss Pearson, who delivered a befitting address, which was replied to, in a touching manner by Mr. Rutherford. Ap propriately, the list of names inscribed on the tablets, begins with that of John Harris (second) , founder of the city of Harrisburg. The Civic Club of Harrisburg was established in 1898, its object being to increase the public interest in all matters relating to good citizenship and to promote a better social order. It is inter ested in the advancement of Harrisburg, and has for years worked for desired improvements, including better kept streets, and better parks. Through the influence of the membership the old toll house at the Market street bridge was torn down, and the beauti ful gateway entrance to the city was made through the liberality of the McCormick family. The work of the Club includes the muni cipal department, clean streets, educational department, traveling libraries, decoration committee, town improvement and forestry. There is scarcely a nook or corner in the entire city limits that has not felt the work and suggestion of this Club, made up as it is of some of the best ladies of the place. Working in conjunction with the Board of Trade and other business and municipal societies, this Club has adorned many parts of the city and made it a city of charming homes. The present officers of the Club are as follows: Mrs. Ly man D. Gilbert, president, who was also the first to serve in this capacity; Miss Rachel Pollock, first vice-president; Mrs. Robert A. Lamberton, second vice-president; Mrs. William Henderson, third vice-president; Mrs. John C. Stine, recording secretary; Mrs. A. Stewart Koser, corresponding secretary; Mrs. James I. Cham berlain, treasurer. The directors are: Miss Dull, Mrs. Charles B. Fager, Mrs. Richard J. Haldeman, Mrs. Newton H. Davies, Miss Wierman, Miss Eby and Miss Buehler. HARRISBURG POST OFFICE. From 1789 to' 179 1 Harrisburg depended on Lancaster and Carlisle for their post office facilities. Towards the close of 1791 an office was secured for Harrisburg, John Montgomery, son of Rev. Joseph Montgomery, receiving the appointment as postmaster. He remained until 1793, and resigned, when John W. Allen was appointed his successor. He was at the time one of the proprietors i64 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY of the Oracle of Dauphin, and he was followed by John, Wyeth. The office at first was "next opposite the register's office," then on Mulberry street. Its next quarters was at 219 South Second street. In 1799, files of the Oracle say, it was moved to Mr. Wyeth's residence, at the corner of Mulberry and Second streets. President John Adams appointed John Wright about 1798 as post master, who kept the office at his home on South Second street, be low Chestnut, now No. 112. The salary was then but fifty dollars per annum. Besides attending to- the duties of the office Mr. Wright found ample time to' teach school. After one year at that loca tion, he removed to South Front street, below Chestnut, No. in, but the next year changed to Mulberry street, near Second, where he remained eleven years, continuing his school, and where some prominent after time citizens obtained their preliminary education. In 1 8 1 1 the stage barns were located on the corner of River and Cherry alleys, where later stood the bakery and spice mills of Mr. Haehnlen, but later were removed to' the east corner of Fifth and Walnut streets. They usually crossed the river at the Upper Ferry — Maclay's. Perhaps for this reason, Mr. Wright again moved the post office in 18 12, to the corner of Front and Walnut streets. Next it was kept on Walnut, near Raspberry alley, No. 215. Here it continued eleven years, and this is doubtless where Mr. Wright died. His wife succeeded him. The salary was then $500 per annum. In 1822-3 Mrs. Wright removed the office to Market Square. As the legislature and state offices had been lo cated here then and the business of the post office increased, the sal ary went to $900 per annum. During 1823 Mrs. Wright died, and was succeeded in office by James Peacock, who printed the Pennsylvania Republican at this point, and received his appoint ment from President Monroe. He soon moved the post office to the north corner of Locust and Third streets, and one year later to Front above Market, where he also had his residence. Still later it was moved to the two-story brick house, "next to Mrs. Mary Hanna's," where Peacock lived many years. The first time the post office was kept outside of a residence was in 1832 or 1833, when Peacock moved it to a room in Mr. Keller's house on Second street, near Walnut. A few years later he purchased from the Henry Miller estate the three-story brick house, No. 7 North Mar ket Square. President Polk in 1845 appointed Isaac McKinley as Pea cock's successor, and President Taylor in 1849 appointed Andrew J. Jones, who moved the office to the old Pennsylvania Bank, south east corner of Market Square, where now stands the First Presby- HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 565 terian Church, where it remained about eight years. John H. Brant was made postmaster by President Pierce in 1852, and in 1856 Dr. George W. Porter was appointed his successor by Presi dent Buchanan. He moved the office to his residence on Market street, near Fourth, now No-. 336, where, it remained until the ap pointment of George Bergner, by President Lincoln in 1 86 1, when it was moved to his residence on Market near Third street, now No. 225, but a few years later to No. 314 Market street. Dur ing President Johnson's administration General Joseph F. Knipe was appointed, but when General Grant came into' office he at once reinstated Mr. Bergner, and he continued until his death, August 5, 1874, having served eleven years. President Grant appointed ¦M. W. McAlarney, upon the death of Mr. Bergner. The following is the list of postmasters and terms of appoint ment: John Montgomery, appointed 1792. John W. Allen, appointed August, 1793. John Wyeth, appointed October, 1793. John Wright, appointed 1802. Mrs. Wright took the office at his death, in, 18 14, who held until 1822, when James Peacock was appointed! James Peacock was succeeded as follows : Isaac G. McKinley, 1845. Andrew J. Jones, 1849. John H. Brant, 1853. Dr. George W. Porter, 1856. George Bergner. General Joseph F. Knipe, 1865-74. George Bergner, died in office. Henry Gilbert, ad interim. M. W. McAlarney, 1874-85. B. F. Meyers. Andrew K. Black. William Rodearmel. E. J. Stackpole, still in service in 1905. New Post Office Building. February 9, 1875,. a bill was in troduced in the United States senate, appropriating "one hundred and sixty thousand dollars, or as much thereof as is necessary," for the purchase of suitable grounds for the erection thereon of a post office and other government buildings. The President approved the bill March 4, and subsequent sessions appropriations were made to complete the work. Work began in December, 1877, and in December, 1882, the splendid structure was completed, and May 566 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 10 of that year the post office effects were, moved into it from No. 314 Market street. The building is 61 x 120 feet, of three stories with basement. The first floor is for post office uses, and the re mainder for other government offices. The total cost of the build ings and grounds was $401,000 — a monument to good manage ment. The post office in, Harrisburg is responsible for several inno vations in the postal work that have been adopted all over the United States. Harrisburg had the first letter carrier in the United States in the person of Jonas Rudy, who died a few years ago. Mr. Rudy was joined just after the war by George Forbes, who' died and was succeeded by William Moyer. The carriers were not uni formed in those days, but as a badge of office they wore capes and carried canes. Mr. Rudy made two deliveries a day, one in the morning and the other in the afternoon, and how he got over the town once a day was a wonder, but he managed to make the two deliveries. Of course, there were no* mail collections, but if you gave the carrier your letter he posted it for you. When two car riers did the work one took all the territory above Market street and the other all below Market. The Harrisburg post office was the first to make a directory for the carriers by which means they were enabled to> locate people not in the regular directory or only stopping here temporarily, and it is that arrangement that has cut down the list of advertised uncalled for letters from two columns in the newspapers to very few names. In 1876, railway postal clerks, at that time known as route agents, certain of whom are paid in Harrisburg, were paid $2,032.- 60 by Postmaster McAlarney, but in 1902 Postmaster Stackpole paid to the railway postal clerks the large sum of $216,420.08. To-day 185 railway postal clerks step up to the assistant postmast er's desk at the post office, sign the receipt book and secure their pay- In 1842, in a Harrisburg Borough Directory the following is given as postage rates from Harrisburg: "Charges to every county seat in the State." Then follows the alphabetical list for carrying letters. York, Pennsylvania, was the least in amount, and was "six cents per letter." A majority of the county seats were obliged to pay 12 1-2 cents and many 18 3-4 cents per letter, from the Harrisburg office, owing to the distance traveled by the stages. The first mail-carrier from Harrisburg northward was Ben jamin A. Taylor. His route extended to Alexandria, Huntingdon HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 567 county, and the mails were carried on horseback. In this way it was usual for him to ride two hundred and sixteen miles every six days. STATE LUNATIC ASYLUM. This institution was founded for the insane poor and the in sane convicts in one of the three Pennsylvania districts. The fol lowing counties comprise this district: Adams, Bedford, Berks, Blair, Cumberland, Dauphin, Franklin, Lancaster and Schuylkill. It was founded by the act of April 14, 1845, and opened for ser vice October, 1851. The corner-stone of the building was laid April 7, 1849. When the last (1903) report was issued by the state, there were 984 inmates — 505 males and 479 females. Twenty- seven were from Dauphin county. The cost of maintenance was at that date $3.75 for each person per week. The institution is located two miles northeast of Harrisburg, on the lines of the Pennsylvania, Philadelphia & Reading and Northern Central railways. This district includes a territory of 10,488 square miles, and the same has a population of 1,035,738. It was established under Governor Johnson's administration, and originated in the following manner : The establishment of such an institution claimed the attention of the philanthropic and benevolent at a very early day. The first movement on the subject was made by philanthropic citizens of Philadelphia, who held several public meetings, and adopted a memorial which was numerously signed and presented to the legislature at the sessions of 1838-39. This memorial, with others from different counties, was referred to a committee of five members of the house of representatives, of which Hon. Joseph Konigmacher was chairman. A bill authorizing the erection of a State Lunatic Asylum was prepared and passed both houses, but failed to' receive the Governor's sanction. March 4, 1841, an act was passed authorizing the governor to appoint a committee of three commissioners, upon whom devolved the duty of selecting a site and superintending the erection of a suitable building. The spot chosen was on the Schuylkill river, two miles from Gray's Ferry, below Philadelphia, and preparations had been made for commencing the erection when their operations were suspended. The matter was kept before the public, however, and in 1844, through the exertions and influence of Miss D. L. Dix, a benevo lent worker, the legislature, in the spring of 1845, appointed a committee of the following commissioners: Jacob M. Haldeman, Luther Reily, Hugh Campbell, Charles B. Trego, and Joseph 568 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY Konigmacher, for the erection of a hospital to be located within two miles of the borough of Harrisburg. In 1848 three additional commissioners were asked for and obtained. These were Aaron Bombaugh, John A. Weir .and James Fox. A farm of one hun dred and thirty acres was purchased, less than two miles from Har risburg, and the work was commenced in the summer of 1848, ac cording to- plans furnished by John Haviland, architect of Phila delphia, who also, erected building above mentioned and to which has been added and remodeled, from time to time. STATE ARSENAL. The first magazine in Pennsylvania was built by an act passed March, 1787, and erected on Vine street, Philadelphia, at Franklin Square. March 15, 18 16, an act was passed for the erection of an arsenal on the lot of ground belonging to the commonwealth within Dauphin county, the same to be a substantial brick building. Section 2 of the act read: "And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, that each of the said arsenals shall be of such dimensions as to admit of the convenient storage of any number (not exceeding ten pieces of artillery), with the necessary appur tenances there to belonging, including ten thousand muskets or rifles; 1,600 tents, 10,000 knapsacks; 10,000 boxes; 1,600 camp kettles; 1,600 mess-pans, also to contain a fire-proof apartment, with space sufficient for two' persons to work in repairing or making arms." This Arsenal was located on the southeast corner of the capitol grounds, by order of Governor Snyder and the Assembly. It cost $12,000, and was erected by Stephen Hills. It was a brick struc ture, with two' wings connected by a brick wall, eighteen inches thick on the first and fourteen inches on the second story. Gover nor Snyder appointed the following committee to inspect the com pleted buildings : Richard T. Leech, Peter Brua, Samuel Cleckner, and they reported all in first-class order April 28, 18 17. It served a half century, but greatly destroyed the beauty of the capitol grounds, and in 1873 an act was passed causing its removal to' a new location. For $5,000 a block of ground facing on Eighteenth, Herr, Nineteenth and Broad streets, in East Harrisburg, was pur chased, which contained about seven acres, upon which the present Arsenal was erected by the lowest bidder of eleven — H. Schudde- mage, of Harrisburg, for $26,950.00. The highest bid was $39,- 349. The contents of the 'old Arsenal was removed to the old Harrisburg Stove Works temporarily, and 3,500 stand of arms were sold at the total sum of $2,407.73, for the reason that they HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 569 were old style and of not any value for modern armies. The plans for the new Arsenal were drawn by Luther M. Simon. The con tract with the builder called for the buildings to be enclosed and plastered by January 1, 1875, and to be completed March 1, 1875, which was brought about. The contractor was under a bond of $53,900 for the fulfillment of his contract. Governor John Hart- ranft was at the head of the State government at that date, and John W. Latta was adj't-general. At the time: of the removal to the present location of the Ar senal, the stores and supplies were very heavy, and, after much had been sold, among other supplies which were removed to the new quarters were the following : Trophies: one 18-pdr. Mexican cannon; one 6-pdr. Mexican cannon four 6-pdr. French cannon ; four brass cannon ; one 4-pdr. gun-carriage. Cannon: Eight 6-pdr., iron; one 6-pdr., brass; one 6-pdr., spiked and dismantled; fourteen 6-pdr., brass, dismantled: two> gatling guns, 45 caliber. Small Arms: 373 Springfield breech- loading rifles; 397 Springfield breech-loading muskets, 1870 make; 1768 Harper's Ferry muskets, 69 caliber; 3,255 Leman muskets, 69 caliber; 7,992 U. S. muskets, 69 caliber; 539 Butterfield mus kets, 69 caliber; 58 Belgian muskets, 58 caliber; 94 Enfield rifles, 58 caliber; 672 Starr revolvers; 291 Remington revolvers; 15,135 bayonets; 310 sabers; 543 artillery swords; 622 common tents; 1 Fremont tent; 32,000 ball. cartridges. Since 1875, many additions and improvements have been ef fected about the Arsenal premises. EDUCATIONAL. It should be understood by the reader that, prior to 1836, Pennsylvania had no free school system of any character — all was by individual subscriptions. As early as 1786 — one year after Dau phin county had been erected — the citizens of Harrisburg, in order to comply with the request and stipulations of an agreemnt of John Harris, the towns founder, who agreed to donate all the rents, in comes, etc., of his ferry across the river for the endowment of an English and German academy, entered into the following agree ment: We, the subscribers, do each of us, for ourselves, promise to pay, or cause to be paid, to John Hoge, Moses Gilmor, Conrad Bombaugh and John Brooks, on their order upon demand, the sums annexed to each of our names, respectively, to be applied by them in purchasing materials for and in building a school-house in one 570 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY corner of the public ground in the town of Harrisburg. In witness whereof we have hereunto set our hands, with the sums annexed, this 20th day of April, 1786.

Hanna, John Hamilton, and John Kean. The trustees for 1791 were John A. Hanna, John Kean, John Dentzel, Stacy Potts, and Adam Boyd. The following is the preamble of the constitution adopted by the subscribers to the academy fund: Whereas, The prosperity and happiness of the free and in dependent citizens of the United States in a great measure depends on the proper cultivation and improvement of the minds of the young and rising generations, whereby they may be qualified to perform their respective duties in civil society as well as the more important obligations of religion ; wherefore, we, the citizens of Harrisburg, in the State of Pennsylvania, in order to establish a seminary of useful learning, have by voluntary contributions built a school-house, hoping through the favor of Divine Providence, with the benevolent aid of the honorable Legislature of this Common wealth, and the charitable donations of the well disposed, together ? with the diligent care and attention of the governors and teachers, it may become a respectable institution, renowned for the pious educa tion of future generations; for which purpose we do ordain and es tablish the following rules for the constitution and government thereof." Then followed twenty, or more, sections, including this ( 8 ) : "Section 8 of the rules directed that the teachers shall from time to time be obliged to teach such number of charity scholars as shall be recommended by the trustees (not exceeding four) gratis, which the trustees and teachers shall keep secret." On the 4th of April, 1809, Governor Snyder approved of the act incorporating the Harrisburg Academy. By the act of incor poration there was included a grant from the state of one thousand dollars to purchase a lot of ground whereon "to erect a suitable building, and to procure a pair of globes and such other astrono mical and mathematical apparatus as may be necessary." The in corporators and original members of the board of trustees were 572 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY William Graydon, Christian Kunkel, George Hoyer, Robert Har ris, Samuel Laird, Henry Beader, John Wyeth, Joshua Elder and Dr. John Luther. By permission of the state, a building was erected on the public ground, corner Walnut and Fifth streets, but this proved a violation to the terms with the state and John Harris, and finally, after many struggles, the trustees found a home for the school by securing the Maclay Mansion, corner of Front and South streets. From the adoption of the state constitution of 1790 until 1809 no legislative provision of a general nature was made in reference to' public schools. An act was then passed "for the gratuitous edu cation of the poor." It required a report to be made by the asses sors of the townships, wards, and boroughs to the commissioners of the respective counties of all children between the age of five and twelve years whose parents were unable to provide for their educa tion ; and that when the lists had been approved by the commission ers, that such parents should be notified thereof, and be permitted to send their children to' the most convenient schools at the expense of the county. Notwithstanding the many defects of this law, it continued in force until it was repealed by that of 29th of March, 1824, which provided that every township should elect three "school-men" who should superintend the education of the poor children within their respective townships, and "cause them to be instructed as other children are treated, the expense of tuition to be paid by the county." But each township might authorize the "school-men" to- divide the township into school districts, and estab lish school's at the expense of the township, to which all children belonging to the districts might be sent for three years, at any time between the ages of six and fourteen years. This law obtained throughout the state, at option of the people, except in Philadelphia and Lancaster. It was repealed in 1826, and the act of 1809 re vived. By the act of April, 1827, Harrisburg became a "school district" by itself. This authorized the commissioners of Dauphin county to make use of any part of the court house unoccupied, in which to hold school at public expense all children in or within one mile of the borough of Harrisburg, the same to be taught and in structed on the Lancasterian system of education in its most ap proved state. The commissioners were further empowered to ad mit children whose parents or guardians were able to' pay tuition, the fee to be applied to the support of the school. Under the provisions of the act of April, 1827, the county commissioners established a school on the Lancasterian plan in Har risburg, and built a large building on Walnut street. This school! n; pupils, 957- i9; pupils 986. 24; pupils, 976. 47; pupils , 342i 78 ; pupils. ¦ 5°53 90; pupils, 5259- HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 573 system was based on monitorial, or mutual instruction. The school being divided into several sections, according to the acquirements of the pupils, over each one of which was appointed a master — "Monitor" — generally the most intelligent, advanced scholar whose duty it was to superintend the instruction of his companions, under general supervision of the chief master employed. Thus three hun dred Harrisburg children were taught. Colored children were admitted in 1832. Such a school system prevailed until it outlived its usefulness, in 1834, and was discontinued, the present system be ing established in December, 1835. From the commencement of the free school plan in 1835-6 the following showing was made at Harrisburg up to 1880: 1836 — Number of Schools, 1 841 — Number of Schools, 1857 — Number of schools, 1867 — Number of schools, 1877 — Number of schools, 1880 — Number of schools, At present (1905) there are 181 schools in the city, and 8,740 pupils. Every modern appliance both in buildings and instruction is employed by the Harrisburg public schools to-day. In the month of March, 1905, died Professor Foose, who had been at the head of the city schools more than one-third of a century. His death was mourned by thousands of patrons of the schools, and the community in general. Among the many tributes to his memory is the following by Miss Katherine McNiff, who has been associated as pupil and teacher with Professor Foose, said among other things, at a memorial service after his death : Professor Foose has given to our schools thirty-six continuous years of his life. He has impressed all associated with him that he was a great educator, with intellectual endowments and brain pow ers ; also a Christian gentleman, whose heart was ever ready to sym pathize with his pupils and teachers by kind words of advice and encouragement, and valuable assistance along the thorny paths of life. He was a gentleman, mild, patient, and of wonderful indus try and application. It might be said of him that he found the schools brick, and left them marble. In "Notes and Queries," (3rd series, Vol. I, page 518,) the following is found concerning early schools and teachers : In April, 1795, James Ross opened a school to teach Latin and Greek languages. 574 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY In the spring of 1795, it is stated of Andrew Mitchell, that "for several years past he laid a number of respectable inhabitants of this place under many obligations for his steady and unwearied exertions as a teacher of the different languages." On May 18, 1795, Anthony Seyfert, announces that he "will this day open a public school in this town to teach children the sev eral branches of reading, writing, the English grammar, arithmetic and mathematics, by the approbation of the trustees." On the same date, "Peter Shaw, school master, returns thanks to the people of Harrisburg, will open a school Monday, the first of June next in Market street, in the house formerly occupied by Captain James McNamara." In the Oracle of June 8, 1795, appeared this: "James Ross, be ing offered two pistareens and a five-penny bit more in Franklin county," left this town. February 26th, 1796, the Oracle said: "The pupils belonging to the school of Anthony Seyfert, Esq., exhibited before as crowded an audience as the court room would admit, the forces of the 'Pad lock,' and the 'Mayor of Garrett,' with great satisfaction." On the 13th of June, 1796, "Richard Dougherty, school-mas ter, opened school in Market street, and is stated 'had experience in Europe and America.' " In October the same year (1796), John Downey announced "that he intended opening an evening school at his school-room on Raspberry alley, Monday, October 31, where he proposed to teach on the usual terms, reading, writing and arithmetic. No care or at tention will be spared for the instruction of pupils." June 21, 1797 : "Mrs. Bell proposes to open a boarding-school for young ladies — subscription paper to be seen at Adam Boyd, Esq." A select school for young men was established about 1853 by Jacob S. Seiler, at his residence, corner of Chestnut and Raspberry alley, and was largely attended by some of the best, brightest young men of Harrisburg. R. M'Elwee and sisters, Mrs. Pool, Miss Keller and Miss Val entine, also in charge of select schools for infants of both sexes, in which the elementary branches of study were pursued, with very gratifying results to the community. ECHOES FROM THE PAST. Supplies for General Sullivan's Army. — A large number of troops, and many of the supplies for General Sullivan's expedition HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 575- against the Indians on the Susquehanna in 1779, passed through Harrisburg. General Sullivan, with the main body of the army, reached the Susquehanna at Sunbury, by way of Easton. The sup plies ascended the river in batteaux; these were used at the timely suggestion of John Harris, Jr., in 1756, showing, as he did, their su periority over canoes, then the universal mode of navigating the streams. — Morgan's "Annals of Harrisburg." Gen. St. Clair's Troops. — Several large detachments of regular United States troops passed through the borough of Harrisburg in 1790-91 to join the army commanded by General St. Clair, operat ing against the western Indians. The father of Captain Jeremiah Reese was then lessee of the old Harris ferry here, and the Captain then a young man, steered one of the flats conveying the troops across the river. River Navigation A Century Ago. — About 1800 the chief mode of navigating the river was by Keel-boats, or "broad-horns," similar to those used on western waters prior to the introduction of steam. These boats, landed, with grain, flour, iron and other pro ductions of northern Pennsylvania and New York, would descend with the current of the river to tidewater at Baltimore, and, after discharging their cargo, return again to the places from which they started. A large number of the boats unshipped their cargo at this place, for transportation by wagon, to Lancaster or Philadelphia. The red warehouse, on the bank of the river at Paxton street, was erected to accommodate this class of trade, and was frequently filled with goods awaiting wagons to transport them eastward. As many as fifty keel-boats have been tied up along the shore of the river, near this warehouse, at one time, and as the boatsmen were "jolly fellows," the whole town would be enlivened, for weeks at a time, with their songs, music and fandangoes. Benjamin A. Taylor, a resident of Harrisburg, frequently conducted a keel-boat to the head waters of the river in York State. Burning Tom Paine' s Letter. — The patriotic citizens of Har risburg celebrated Washington's birthday as early perhaps as any other class of people in the country. In 1797 they gave a public din ner at the house of George Zeigler. After the reading of a number of excellent toasts, "Tom Paine's brutal letter to President Wash ington was burned by the hands of the drummer, to the tune of the 'Rogue's March,' amid the general and hearty acclamations of the company." ' [This is taken from among a collection of early day reminiscences of pioneer men and women of the city. ] Chimney-Sweeping Monopoly. — In 1797 the burgesses of Harrisburg (Messrs. Win. Graydon and James Sawyer,) enacted a 576 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY novel ordinance: "That if any inhabitant of the borough of Harris burg shall procure his or her chimney to be swept by any other chimney sweeper than John Croft (unless upon application of the said John Croft, he shall refuse or neglect to sweep such chimney or chimneys,) he or she shall forfeit and pay the sum of one dollar for every such offense. Advertised Letters. — The list of letters remaining in the post- office at Harrisburg were advertised in the local paper, the Oracle of Dauphin, every two weeks. The list published in 1797 and 1798 embraced the names of many people residing at the time in Lewis- town, Northumberland, Carlisle, Middletown, etc. The amount of postage "due" on each letter was placed by the name, when adver tised. Prison Wall. — The stone wall enclosing the old county prison was erected in 1798. The commissioners of the county issued pro posals for its construction in November, 1797. First Anthracite Coal Used In Harrisburg. — Valentine Hum mel, Sr., an old resident, stated in 1858 that he well remembered the date of first seeing anthracite coal burned in Harrisburg. It came from Wilkes-barre, and was brought in an "ark" on the river. The entire load was sold to Jacob Boas, Esq., and at that time was counted a supply for Harrisburg for a year. This appears to have been about the year 18 10, possibly 18 11. The Riot of 1825. — April 21, 1825 — eighty years ago — thp borough of Harrisburg was the scene of a serious riot. This, it should be remembered, was long before the curse of American slavery had been crushed out by a great Civil war. A man from Maryland had followed a runaway slave of whom he had in some manner obtained information, after more than a year's absence, and he found him in Harrisburg, and lodged him in jail. He was brought up on a writ of habeas corpus, and after a hearing surrendered to his master. A large number of local colored people attended the trial, armed with clubs, and exhibited a menacing appearance. As a safeguard the master tied his slave's hands behind him; but, as he left the Court house steps, the colored men rushed furiously upon him and at tempted a release. A serious combat ensued and several prominent citizens were injured. One of the Marylanders fired a pistol after having received several blows from the colored men, one of whom he wounded in the arm. This quieted matters and the slave was then taken to a public house and made secure. The colored men gathered around the house, and later on another fracas occurred. The civil authorities then interfered, and nineteen of the colored men were sent to prison. The following week the grand jury found HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 577 a true bill against sixteen of them. The trial lasted three days, and the jury found a verdict of guilty against twelve of them, acquitting four. One of the twelve convicted subsequently escaped, but the others were sentenced to the treadmill, the grand jury having made an appropriation of $300 for the construction of the same. Since all men are free and equal, before the law of our land, whether col ored or white, since 1863, the above reads, to the present generation, more like a romance of some far-away country, than it does like a section of true Pennsylvania history. Mulberry Street Graveyard. — The site of the old Bethel Church, on Mulberry street, Harrisburg, was at one time a grave yard. Hercules — the colored man who so nobly aided in the rescue of John Harris from the Indians — was buried there ; his grave was recognizable, until excavations were made for improving the spot, at which time his skull and a few bones were discovered, and re moved by the descendants of Mr. Harris to the grave occupied by one of his children, in the colored people's burying ground at the foot of Chestnut street. While excavating in the vicinity of the old church, in May, 1858, for a school house, workmen exhumed a large quantity of human bones. An Early Harrisburg CemeUry. — From a report made by the managers of the Harrisburg Cemetery Company, made in Septem ber, 1845, it is learned, says Morgan in his "Annals of Harrisburg," published in 1858, that: "In the autumn of 1843 tne following paper was drafted by Henry Buehler, Esq., and presented to the gentlemen who have sub scribed the same in the order of their signatures. After a number of meetings on the subject, James McCormick, Esq., consented to be considered one of the original subscribers, and is named in the law incorporating the association, although his signature is not affixed to the subjoined: " 'We the undersigned, hereby agree (provided ten responsible persons join in the proposition) to purchase and enclose frorn ten to fifteen acres of land, in the vicinity of the borough of Harrisburg, for the purpose of establishing a public cemetery; the location, price, etc., to be approved by a majority of. the ten. After the incorpora tion of a company for the purpose, we will agree to convey to the constituted authorities thereof, the said land, with the provision that it be laid off into suitable burial lots, both for congregations and for individual families; and that a title be made to each of the ten persons hereby associated, for one family burial lot, free from expense. [This clause they finally abandoned and each member paid for his own lot.] The original cost, with interest to be paid to the ten purchasers out of the proceeds of the first sales of lots, and that the proceeds of lot sales thereafter, in all time to come, be applied 578 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY exclusively to the improvement of the cemetery grounds, or roads leading thereto. Witness our hands and seals at Harrisburg, the 1 6th day of October, 1843. [Signed] " 'Henry Walters, " 'Hamilton Alricks, " 'John Roberts, " 'James Peacock, " 'Henry Buehler, " 'Valentine Hummel, " 'Herman Alricks, " 'John C. Bucher, " 'Luther Reily, " 'William Dock.' " At a meeting of the above named gentlemen, held October 30, 1843, a committee consisting of John Roberts, Dr. Luther Reily, Valentine Hummel and Hamilton Alricks, was chosen for the pur pose of ascertaining locations suitable for the purpose of a cemetery, and the prices at which the land could be obtained. This committee viewed and reported favorable to two pieces of ground, on the hill of Mr. Allison, and the other being parts of the lands of Henry Herr, John Seales and John P. Shoop ; whereupon it was directed to make drafts, or plots of the grounds, necessary for the contemplated cemetery, including the dell on the line of the Herr and Seales prop erty, showing the quantity of lands desired from each, and also a plot of the Allison property. These plots were made and exhibited to the Association, which selected the plot of ground including the lands of Messrs. Herr, Seales and Shoop ; and a committee consist ing of Dr. Reily, Judge Bucher and Hamilton Alricks was appointed to contract on the best terms possible, with these gentlemen for the ground wanted. Before the negotiations were concluded, however, the court of quarter session laid a public highway through a part of this tract desired, hence a change was made and finally the committer was directed to purchase the ground of Henry Herr alone, which was done, February 27, 1844. The tract was subsequently added to by a purchase from Mr. Herr, and the grant of about half an acre from Mr. Seales. "The company was incorporated under the style and title of the "Harrisburg Cemetery Association," by an Act of the Assembly passed the 14th of February, 1845, and organized by appointing Henry Walters president, and John Roberts secretary and treasurer. The Association proceeded at once to improve the grounds by laying off into lots and avenues, and surrounding the whole with a sub stantial picket fence, with the necessary gateways, and September 30, 1845, in the presence of a large concourse of people, the ceme tery was duly dedicated to its purpose. Rev. John F. Mesick made the opening prayer, and the Rev. George McCartney the closing prayer. The dedicating address was delivered by Rev. William R DeWitt. HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 579 On October ist, 1845, General James Steel was buried in lot No. 35, section F, aged eighty-two years — his being the first in terment in the cemetery; and on the 23rd of the same month and year an infant son of IVir. and Mrs. William Kepner was buried in lot No. 44, of the same section, being the second interment. Thus in the first two burials, the two extremes of human life were em braced. "Oh, why should the Spirit of Mortal be proud For the old and the young together must lie." A keeper's house was erected at the east end of the grounds of this City of the Dead. It was a two-story Gothic structure ; built of brick, and cost $2,200. This is the chief cemetery of the city to-day (1907), although the grounds are nearly all occupied at present. The thirty odd acres within this "Silent City" are. literally covered with tombstones, many being expensive shafts. and imposing pieces- of art work. The grounds are kept in the most scrupulous manner This cemetery is situated on a high eminence overlooking the busy city, is within easy walking distance, and but a short distance from the State street car line, the location being State and Thirteenth streets. There are very many at rest here who' were born in the mid dle of the eighteenth century. Nothing bespeaks better for the cul ture and religious sentiment of a city than to observe the care with which the living generations take of their loved and departed friends. This "Silent City" has been known as Mt. Kalmia. The "Harris Mansion." —The "Harris Mansion House" was built of stone, in 1766, by John Harris, Jr., the founder of the city of Harrisburg, when he was in his thirty-eighth year. The title of the land on which it stands is as follows : Joseph Turner patented it in a tract of land containing five hundred acres, December 17, 1733. December 18, 1733, it was transferred to Edward Shippen, who the following day, with his wife Sarah, deeded it to John Har ris, Sr., and he by will devised it to John Harris, Jr., his son, No vember 22, 1746, (two years prior to his death), and John Harris, Jr., by will transferred the place to David Harris, his son, August, 1 79 1, by his will made prior to his death, July 30, 1791. February 5, 1805, David Harris sold it to Robert Harris, his brother, for "seven hundred pounds in lawful money of Pennsylvania." Febru ary 12, 1835, Robert sold to Thomas Elder at $5,000. Mr. Elder died in 1853, and the title passed to James Elder. He sold to Rev. Beverly R. Waugh, September 1, 1854; he died in 1861, and the- 580 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY widow, Sarah S. Waugh, became owner, and she sold to Simon Cameron, April i, 1863. In 1889, he deeded to his daughter, Mar- garetta C. Haldeman, the present owner. It is still in a good state of preservation, although built one hundred and forty years ago. It is now occupied by Richard J. Haldeman. It faces on Front street, overlooking the Susquehanna river, and the grave of the pioneer, John Harris, Sr., is but a few rods from it. It is a two-story stone structure, of good size and pro portion, and from its present appearance one would think it but a score of years old. Harrisburg has one burying-ground peculiar to itself. It is situated but a few rods from the banks of the beautiful and historic Susquehanna, and directly in front of the oldest residence in the city — the old stone mansion house built by John Harris in 1766. Be neath the stately trees shading the green sward and the river's bank, may be seen a plot of ground about twenty-five feet square, sur rounded by a neat but solid iron fence about eight feet high. With in this sacred enclosure rest the remains of John Harris, Sr., who was the father of the city's founder. A large mulberry tree stood at that point during Mr. Harris's lifetime, and for many years there after. His grave is marked by a plain two^inch marble slab, about two by five feet in size, and a footstone a little lower. The grave was dug exactly east and west, the same as the stone mansion was built, while the iron fence enclosure stands quartering, but parallel with the present-day city streets and lots. Hence the grave of pio neer Harris is in a diagonal position within the enclosure. The in scription on the above mentioned headstone is : "A CRUCE SALUS" JOHN HARRIS OF YORKSHIRE ENGLAND THE FRIEND OF WILLIAM PENN AND FATHER OF THE FOUNDER OF HARRISBURG. DIED DECEMBER, 1748 IN THE COMMUNION OF THE CHURCH OF ENG LAND. HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 581 Within the various cemeteries of Dauphin county repose the re mains of many prominent citizens, from both the public and private walks of life. Here lie the bodies of Governors Findlay, Wolfe, Porter and Geary; the honored and revered church workers, Revs. Roan, Bertram, Elder, Snodgrass, Showden, Lochman, Castleman, Cookman and DeWitt; of representative citizens, the Harrises, Maclay, Hanna, Hamilton, Berryhill, Wyeth, Hummel, Beatty, Bombaugh, Kelker, Beader, Bucher, Cowden, McAllister, Potts, Boyd, Allen, Haldeman, Elder, Cox, Ross, Gray, Kean, Ruther ford, Gilmore, Forster and Ziegler; and scores upon scores of more who have acted well their part and finally been gathered to their fathers. Monuments. — That the citizens of Dauphin county have ever manifested a due regard for their departed dead, one only needs to walk through the early and present-day cemeteries, in both town and country, where repose the remains of many generations and note with what scrupulous care these "Cities of the Dead" are kept. The walls, fences, appropriate tombs and monuments, together with the trees, shrubbery and flowers, all bespeak of reverence and tender ness. But this characteristic is not alone found in honoring the dead who have fallen asleep while toiling as civilians, but also even to a larger degree has this spirit gone out toward the heroes of many a war, in the erection of two fine monuments, to commemorate the dead of the brave defenders of the Union, in both the Mexican and Civil Wars. Mexican Soldiers Monument. — By an Act of the Legislature in 1858, a sum "not exceeding $30,000 was appropriated for the erection of a suitable monument to commemorate the death of the brave sons of the Commonwealth, who lost their lives in the Mexi can war from 1846 to 1848." After long delay, the monument was finally completed in 1868. It stood at first between its present site and the present Executive building, but when plans were being made for new capitol buildings, the improvement of. Capitol Park, etc., it was removed to the south, and much of the ornamental work about its base was dispensed with when re-erected. It is a high massive column with a square base, upon which is inscribed, the names of the chief battles of the Mexican War. Civil War Monument. — January 30, 1867, the General As sembly of Pennsylvania approved an Act to Incorporate the Dau phin County Soldiers' Monument Association. The object of this society was to raise funds for the erection of a suitable monument to the "Soldiers of Dauphin County who gave their lives for the life 58-2 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY Monument Erected to the Memory of the Soldiers Who Fell in the Mexican War and the Old Arsenal. of the Union in the war for the suppression of the Rebellion — 1861- 65." It was erected at a cost of $13,589.54, of which sum the citi zens of Harrisburg and Dauphin county raised by subscription and fairs managed by the patriotic women of city and county $11,- 089.54. The remaining amount ($2,500) was appropriated by the commissioners of Dauphin county from the public funds, as per Act of the Legislature. The original contract for constructing this monument, was let to contractors Brown and Strohaker, October 18, 1867, work com mencing in November of the same year. The price was to be $10,990, completed, but after the builders had gone up sixty feet, consuming $9,150.66 of the $9,257.04, amount raised by subscrip tion and fairs held, they abandoned their contract. The incomplete monument then stood until September, 1876, when the new contrac- HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 583 tor, Jehu DeHaven, commenced the completion and finished it No vember 19, 1876, at the contract price of $4,278, making the total expense $13,589.54. This monument stands at the intersection of State and Second streets, in Harrisburg. It is composed of granite found on the banks of the Susquehanna, and is in the form of an obelisk resting on a plinth. It is ten feet square at the base, and six feet near the top. Its total height is one hundred and ten feet. Surrounding the base is a paved and curbed platform, or esplanade, the curb protected by four pieces of ordnance of about six-pound calibre, taken from the insurgents during the Rebellion, and obtained by the State from the general government for this purpose. The structure is set exactly square with the compass. This, however, causes it to be diagonal with the street in which center it stands. In appearance it very nearly resembles an obelisk of the classical Egyptian type, almost a copy of the celebrated Cleopatra's needle. While the early subscription list was not preserved, it may truthfully be said that nearly every citizen contributed towards its construction some time during the decade in which it was being erected.

At one time the low ground fronting the State capitol, between Second and Third streets, and from Pine street to the ridge north east, was a dense swamp whose edges were so beset with tangled briars that, in the language of an early pioneer, "the place was al most impenetrable to the dogs." This tract of land was commonly known as "Maclay's Swamp." A natural gully ran from its lower end into the creek that for many years crossed Front street above Walnut. This was also the outlet of the pond at Market Square. When the river was high, the water at the mouth of the creek would overflow Front street and render it impassable. 7 586 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY At the June session of the court in 1800, a petition was pre sented praying that there be a bridge erected over this creek, or "gut," as it was then called, and an appropriation of two hundred dollars was accordingly made for that purpose. For many years in the history of the borough there was a skat ing pond, at the east corner of Market Square. In the summer sea son this pond was> a favorite resort for boys, who> amused themselves fishing for frogs. Subsequently it was the site of a lumber yard, and even then presented a marked topographical contrast to the fine paved Square through which now runs the numerous electric street car tracks. The beautiful island in the Susquehanna opposite the city, was famous a century ago> for its nests of bald eagles. Many made that spot their home and nesting place, where they reared their young; and on some occasions hundreds of these noble birds were to be seen hovering in the air, above the river, in that vicinity. The fishermen were always informed of the approach of a school of shad up the stream, by the action of the eagles, who in great numbers would follow in the air above, occasionally descending with lightning ra pidity into the water and rise with an unlucky shad, which would be devoured in the bird's rapid flight. GREAT FLOOD PERIODS. In September, 1786, occurred what was termed the "Pumpkin Flood." The bottom lands on the head waters of the river, and more especially of the North branch and in New York state, had been planted chiefly to pumpkins. They came down in enormous quantities. Esquire Montgomery, who was clerk in the recorder's office as early as 1790, frequently related that for "two whole days, the river looked as if a person could walk over on pumpkins." Small houses, haystacks, grainstacks, with chickens on them, came down in great numbers. The pumpkin flood flats passed from Har ris' Ferry across Second street to the hills. At that date there was a brickyard north from Paxton street, east of the canal. The sheds were probably on the highest spot. In that flood only a part of the sheds were visible. In the preface of Napey's Harrisburg Direc tory is found the following: "During the 'Pumpkin Flood,' the ground about the graveyard (the old Harris burying ground) was also covered with water, and the pumpkins carried off chiefly from the Yankees in Wyoming valley were strewed in profusion over the low ground below Harrisburg." What is known as the great Ice Flood is described by Dr. Ben- HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 587 jamin Rush in a letter to the editor of the Columbian Magazine for November, 1786, in the following words: "The winter of 1783-84 was uncommonly cold, insomuch that the mercury inFarenheit's ther mometers stood several times at 5 degrees, below zero. The snows were frequent, and in many places from two to three feet deep dur ing the greater part of the winter. All the rivers in Pennsylvania were frozen so as to bear wagons and sleds with immense weights. In the month of January a thaw came suddenly, which opened our rivers so as to set the ice a-driving to use a phrase of our country. In the course of one night during the thaw, the wind shifted suddenly to the northwest and the weather became intensely cold, the ice which had floated the day before was suddenly obstructed; and in the river Susquehanna the obstructions were formed in those places where the water was most shallow, or where it had been accustomed to fall. The river is several hundred miles in length, and from half a mile to a mile and a half wide, and winds through a hilly and in many places a fertile and highly cultivated country. * * * The ice in many places where there were falls formed a kind of dam of a most stupendous height. About the middle of March, our weather moderated, and a thaw became general. The effect of it was remarkable in all our rivers, but in none so much as the one I have mentioned. Unfortunately the dams of ice did not give way all at once, nor those which lay nearest the mouth of the river first. While the upper dams were set afloat by the warm weather, the lower ones, which were the largest and in which of course the ice was most impacted, remained fixed. In consequence of this the river rose in a few hours in many places, above thirty feet, rolling upon its surface large lumps of ice from ten to forty cubic feet in size. The effect of this sudden inundation was intolerable. Whole farms were laid under water. Barns, stables, horses, cattle, fences, mills of every kind, and, in one instance, a large stone house thirty by forty feet, were carried down stream. Large trees were torn up by the roots, several small islands covered with woods were swept away, and not a vestige of them was left behind. On the barns which pre served their shape, in some instances for many miles, were to be seen living fowls ; and in one dwelling a candle was burning until finally it was swept from its foundation. Where the shore was level the lumps of ice and the ruins of houses and farms were thrown a quar ter of a mile from the ordinary height of the river. In some instances farms were ruined by the mould being swept from them by the cakes of ice, or by depositions of sand ; while others were enriched by de positions of mud. The damage upon the whole done to the State of Pennsylvania by this freshet, was very great. In most places it 588 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY happened in the day time, or the consequence must have been fatal to many thousands." A writer in Hazzard's Register for 1832, who claimed to have the correct record of all the great floods since 1744, in the Susquehanna river, says: "The first regular flood was in 1744; the second occurred in 1758; the third in 1772; the fourth in March, 1784; the fifth known as 'the Great Pumpkin fresh,' happened in September, 1786; the sixth in the spring of 1800; the seventh in Au gust, 1 8 14; and the eighth in August, 18 17." The great floods since the above dates are hereafter referred to. In the spring of 1846 the water in the Susquehanna rose to an extent scarcely excelled by the great freshets of 1784 and 1786. During the 1846 flood, the east end of the old Harrisburg bridge was swept away, and four spans of the eastern portion of the Cum berland Valley railroad bridge, also. Paxton street and the low ground on the east side of the town, between the Canal and the ridge, were completely overflowed, and several of the dwellers of that part of the town were rescued with much difficulty. The en gine and boiler rooms of the water house were completely sub merged and the machinery more or less injured. Houses, bridges, fences, hay, hogs, cattle, sheep, etc., were carried down the angry river, all combining to present a scene never before witnessed by the "oldest inhabitant." The Flood of 1889 was the greatest of the century, and devas tated this portion of Pennsylvania. It occurred the last days of May and on June, ist, 1889, causing great loss of property and much ex citement. It was only eclipsed in the minds of the people by the great Johnstown flood, which occurred at the same time, and in which more than eight thousand lives were lost in the Conemaugh Valley. At Harrisburg the flood cut off all railway communication to the west and south for several days. Portions of the city were deeply submerged; basements containing valuable property were filled; all of the wagon bridges on the Juniata river for thirty-five miles were swept away; sixty-five emigrants were fed by the Penn sylvania railroad several days at the city station. In South Harris- burg people sat on their housetops and read the Sunday newspapers. The scenes up the river beggared description; the lawns in front of farm houses were covered with saw logs and dead animals. The new boat house on Hargest's Island was destroyed, with one thou sand and two hundred dollars worth of shells. Congressman Wil liam McKinley (later president), remained in a Pullman car on the tracks at the Pennsylvania station several days, not being able to HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 589 go farther toward his home in Ohio. Mayor Fritchey visited his home in a boat, June 1. He had been out all night assisting the flood sufferers, and was nearly exhausted by morning. John J. Hargest met with the greatest single loss, by having his crops all swept away, and his household goods ruined. His barn floated away with all its contents, including thirty-five hogs. In all his loss was more than eight thousand dollars. The rain fell for thirty-five successive hours. From Maclay street to the lower city limits there was one vast lake, bounded on the east by the foot-hills along Eleventh and Twelfth streets, and on the west by the canal bank. There was a swift current and at Herr street and Market street bridge was a roaring, rushing, turbulent volume which boomed down with great violence. McCormick's Island was literally packed with logs. Luther R. Kelker took his family from the Gross farm in. a rowboat, near the park. The fires were all put out by the water which swept through the Paxton and other iron furnaces and the Chesapeake nail works. At Reiley and Canal streets the Zimmerman brickyards were completely sub merged, and the tall limekilns stood like monuments over the grave of waters. A large crowd assembled there and elsewhere ; the men put O'ff in boats to rescue those who had no boats and wanted to come to the higher lands. Letter carriers, delivered mail by use of boats, and also collected in the same manner. The highest point reached by the water was at ten o'clock on the morning of June 1, when it was twenty-seven feet and one inch above low water mark on Front street. From May 20th to 23rd, 1894, occurred the next to the great est flood of Harrisburg and vicinity. The rains were general throughout the entire State. There was great loss of property, run ning into the millions of dollars. At Harrisburg railway traffic was suspended, houses were filled to the second floor in scores of in stances, and household effects were badly damaged. The water- house on the river front was submerged, and the machinery ceased to run. The only signs of activity within the engine house was the sparkling of the electric light, which was suspended fifteen feet from the basement floor, and at the highest flood time was within a foot of the water in the room below it. Middletown, Steelton and Roy- alton were likewise submerged in many of their streets. Hundreds of homes were made desolate, and thousands of dollars worth of property was ruined in prominent homes. The backwater caused the contents of filthy sewers to discharge their contents over much of the furniture in the water-swept houses, and elegant parlors were made into literal "mud-holes." Storage warehouses were sub- 590 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY merged, and the poor classes suffered greatly for food until help could be provided. The Women's Christian Temperance Union served free luncheons to the destitute and to the men who consti tuted the working corps of the deluged city. The Susquehanna riv er was up to the iron work on the Cumberland Valley railroad bridge. Help was solicited from the rural districts, and a great amount of provisions and vegetables were generously brought in to relieve the flood sufferers. The official watermarks cut in stone at the water house show the water to have been twenty-five feet and seven inches above low watermark. The following gives the watermarks at the various flood periods, as recorded at the water house on Front street: 1846, twenty-two feet and two inches; 1865, twenty-four feet and eleven inches; 1886, twenty-one feet and five inches; 1889, twenty-seven feet and one inch; 1894, twenty-five feet and seven inches. The "Falling Stars. November 13, 1833, was the date of the great meteoric shower — an exhibition of natural fire works that will long be remembered by those who witnessed it. In Harrisburg the scene is described as being "grand, awful and sublime." It occurred on a market day, and to the ignorant and superstitious countrymen the phenomena was overwhelming and terrific. One observer re marked "it rained stars." Never before or since did such a countless number of meteors fall in so short a space of time. Most of them were globular in shape, but many in their rapid motion left behind a luminous trail, and these the imagination of the credulous readily transformed into so many "fiery serpents." It is almost impossible to conceive the horror of mind which seized upon some people, even when the phenomena was explained by the better informed. Many of the bold as well as timid citizens yielded alike to apprehension, gave over all as lost, and passed the exciting period in lamentation and prayer. It was astonishing to behold how many became sudden ly devout who were never devout before, yet, generally speaking, the fit of devotion was of no longer duration than that of the phe nomena. The Harrisburg Chronicle, printed at the time by Hugh Hamilton & Son, contained the following graphic description by one who was an eye witness : "This morning (Wednesday, November 13, 1833,) at a quar ter past five o'clock, I was told that a very unusual number of shoot ing stars were to be seen ; and going out I saw them radiating from a point overhead in every direction. It was not possible to count them, but I thought as many as from five to twenty in a second were darted off. The radiating space was not exactly in the zenith, but a little S. S. E. of it. Some of the meteors were so bright as to HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 591 throw a strong light on the whole sky, and attract my attention even when they were behind me. Sometimes a long track of light was left in the sky, and remained for more than a minute. The very great number and rapidity of motion of these meteors could be compared to a large shower of hail. One of them appeared to be as large as a man's fist, and was of great brilliancy. The stream of light that remained in some cases, ceased to be a straight line, and assumed first a snake-like form, and then doubled together. The east was ruddy and the morning star very bright when I first saw the meteors. They were not always regular in their emission, but there was not, I think, an instant of time in which several were not visible. It seemed as if there were several great discharges every minute. I watched them till a quarter past six, when the sun was nearly up, at which time their light was very faint; but it seemed to me their number was only apparently diminished by being lost in the light of the morning. A very bright one was seen just at that time. [Signed] E. L." Earthquake At Harrisburg: — On Thursday morning, Novem ber 20, 180O', two shocks of an earthquake were sensibly felt by the inhabitants of Harrisburg and vicinity. The first took place at a quarter before five o'clock and lasted forty seconds. The knockers on some of the doors rapped as though they were moved by hands, and in one dwelling a set of chinaware was shaken from a table and broken in pieces. The fright caused many to rise from their beds. The second shock took place at five minutes after five o'clock, A. M., lasting half a minute. It was not as severe as the former, but sensi bly felt in every dwelling in town. In both instances a rumbling noise accompanied the trembling of the earth. A Theatre In 1796. — The Oracle file, of the date of September 12, 1796, says: "The Harrisburg Company of Comedians, We hear, intend to give the public a specimen of their abilities, some evening during the present week." The next week's paper said: "A number of young gentlemen of this town, on the evenings of Thurs day and Friday last, performed their celebrated comedy of 'The Prisoner at Large,' to a very numerous audience; considering the many inconveniences which these young men have surmounted in or der to give a few hours amusement to this little social village, great credit is due them for their great perseverance and politeness." "Old Soldiers' Union." — This was the name of an organization framed somewhat after the fashion of our modern-day Grand Army of the Republic posts. It was composed of surviving soldiers of the war of 1 8 12-14, residing in this locality. It was organized early in the fifties, and in 1858 numbered thirty members. It had no stated times for meeting, but joined annually in celebrating the anniver- 592 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY sary of American Independence by a public dinner. Among its last officers were: John Maglaughlin, president; William Allison, George J. Heisely, vice presidents; David Harris, secretary; James R. Boyd, treasurer; Andrew Krause, marshal. General Washington in Harrisburg. — On October 3, 1794, General George Washington, then President of the United States when on his "Western Expedition" was in Harrisburg, as will be seen by the following record made by the borough burgesses : "To His Excellency George Washington, President of the United States of America : "Sir: We the Burgesses and citizens of Harrisburg, while we rejoice in the opportunity of presenting our respects to a char acter so justly revered and- dear to Americans, we cannot but lament that we should owe it to an interruption of the peace and pros perity of our country, those constant objects of our public care. We trust, however, that the just indignation which fires the breasts of all virtuous citizens at the unprovoked outrages com mitted by these lawless men, who are in opposition to one of the mildest and most equal of governments of which the condition of man is susceptible, will excite such exertions as to crush out the spirit of dissatisfaction wherever it has appeared and that our political horizon will shine brighter than ever on a dispertion of the clouds which now menace and obscure it. Though our sphere of action is too limited to produce any important effects, yet we beg leave to assure your Excellency that, so far as it extends, our best endeavors shall not be wanting to sup port the happy constitution and wise administration of our gov ernment." "Signed in behalf of the borough, "Conrod Bombaugh, "Alex. Berryhill, "Harrisburg, Oct. 3, 1794. "Burgesses." gen. Washington's reply. "To the Burgesses and other citizens of Harrisburg: "Gentlemen: In declaring to you the genuine satisfaction I derive from your very cordial support, I will not mingle any expression of the painful sensations which I experience from the occasion which has drawn me hither. You will be at no loss to do justice to my feelings. But relying on that kindness of Provi dence toward our country, which every adverse appearance hitherto has served to manifest, and counting upon the tried good sense and patriotism of the great body of our fellow-citizens, I do not hesitate to indulge with you the expectation of such an issue as HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 593 will serve to confirm the blessings we enjoy under a constitution that well deserves the confidence and support of virtuous and enlightened men. To class the inhabitants of Harrisburg among this number is only to bear testimony to the zealous and efficient exertions which they have made towards the defence of the laws. "George Washington." It seems quite certain that a portion of General Washington's staff, with a small troop of dragoons composing his escort, lodged for the night in the neighborhood of the lower ferry, perhaps at the Bell tavern. From other memoranda, it appears that Washington was the guest of Senator Maclay. The detachments of troops that had previously passed through the borough to join the main body of the army on the Western expedition, bivouaced for a few hours on the bank of the river, near the lower ferry. Some of these troops passed over the river at what was called the upper ferry, at a point above where the waterhouse was later situated. Among the soldiers who accompanied the troops to the west ward was Major William Gould, of the New Jersey infantry. He kept a journal of the expedition, from which we quote what is of especial local value. It contains several important items of infor mation, — the abounding of the Susquehanna with rock-fish, salmon, shad, and fowl, — that previous to the founding of the town in 1785 there were quite a number of houses and people here, and the exist ence of a public ferry distinct from either the lower or upper ferries, taking in the island in the transit : "Thursday, October 2d. — Marched to Hummelstown, a hand some village with kind inhabitants ; we were invited into their houses, and had good entertainment in taverns. Sixteen miles. "Friday, October i,d. — Marched one mile to a river called Sweet Arry; crossed on boats and marched to Harrisburg, and encamped on the banks of the Susquehanna river, a beautiful stream, abounding with rock-fish, salmon, and other small fish and fowl in abundance, also shad of the best kind in the season. The founder of the town, named Harris, buried in a stockade fort by reason that the Indians prevented burying in the graveyard. Twenty-five years ago there were but three or four houses, and now it contains more than three hundred, beautifully situated on the banks of the river, some elegant houses, good market and full stores, a county town in Dauphin county. "At 3 o'clock P. M. paraded and marched to town, from where we encamped; saluted the President of the United States, who passed by, after which returned to camp. Col. Forman, Maj. Kipp, and myself accepted an invitation from the President to take 594 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY a glass of wine with him, after which dined very agreeably, and re turned to camp; the inhabitants received us with every mark of friendship; the artillery discharged fifteen guns at his entrance into town. Nine miles. "Saturday, October 4, 1794. — Marched to the Susquehanna ferry at reveille in the morning with the First Battalion ; crossed in boats to an island in the river, and from thence in other boats to the other side. Suffered much with cold in crossing, it being a very cold morning. The President, Gen. Washington, forded the river in a coach, drove it himself, etc." harrisburg securing the state capitol. So impressed with the thought that Harrisburg would at no very distant day become the seat of the State government of Penn sylvania, the town's founder, Mr. John Harris, observed to a friend (Mr. Hollenback, who later settled at Wilkesbarre) that he had good reasons for believing the State capitol would be built on lands he then owned in the borough of Harrisburg; and so strongly was he impressed with this notion that he, by deed dated July 6, 1785, gave in trust to the commissioners, for the use of the Commonwealth, in case the seat of government should be fixed at Harrisburg, four acres and twenty-one perches of land, being the site where later was erected the Arsenal. The following will be found in book A, Re corder's Office : "In consideration of the sum of five shillings, grant, bargain, sell and release and enfeoff, and confirm unto Jacob Awl, Joshua Elder, Andrew Stewart, James Cowden, and William Brown, their heirs and assigns, in trust for public use, and such purposes as the Legislature shall hereafter direct, a certain lot, or piece of ground, situated in the said town of Harrisburg, in Dauphin county, marked on the general plan of the said town "Public Ground," situated and bounded as follows: Beginning at a post marked for a corner, on the lines of Third and Walnut streets; thence along the said Walnut street, north thirty-seven degrees, east seventeen perches and a quarter, to a post marked for a corner; thence north thirty- five degrees west thirty-one perches to a black-oak; thence south fifty-seven degrees west twenty-three perches to a post marked for a corner on the line of Third street; thence down the said street, south forty-five degrees east and thirty-seven perches to the place of beginning." Thomas P. Cope, of Philadelphia, who died in the "fifties," in formed George W. Harris, Esq., in 1846, that he was at the house of John Harris, on the present site of Harrisburg, he thought about HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 595 1785. He ate breakfast with Mr. Harris, who expressed to him the opinion that the place (Harrisburg) would become the seat of government of Pennsylvania, and he pointed out the public hill as the spot where the public buildings would eventually be built. Many of these facts were stated in Morgan's "Annals." In the winter of 1808-9, appeared the first indication of a real ization of a prophecy made by John Harris, the father of Harris burg, that the place he had laid out on the banks of the beautiful Susquehanna would become the capitol of the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. January 4th, of the last named year, in the State Senate, Mr. Laird presented the petition of sundry inhabitants of the town of Northumberland, stating the central situation of that place, and showing the advantages of fixing the State government there, of fering accommodations for the officers of the State and members of the Legislature, and praying a removal of the seat of state govern ment to that point. His petition was duly referred to a committee consisting of Messrs. Laird, Heston, Doty, Hiester and Laycock. The next day came the following preamble and resolution, presented to the Senate, and also1 referred to the same committee : "Whereas, The books, records and documents belonging to the different departments of government of this Commonwealth, particularly those of the land office, are in want of a suitable build ing for their safe keeping, greatly exposed to dangerous accidents by fire and otherwise — for a remedy whereof. "Resolved, That a committee be appointed to prepare and report a bill to fix a permanent seat of government at in the county of , and provide for erecting thereat suitable buildings for the accommodation of the Legislature, and the several offices attached thereto, before the first Tuesday in December, 18 . .." The committee to whom the subject was referred, shortly after submitted a report recommending the removal of the seat of gov ernment to the town of Northumberland, in the county of Northum berland. The Senate, however, when considering the report, struck out the words "Northumberland, in Northumberland county." February 17, 1809, in committee of the whole, in the Senate, Mr. Sommer moved to fill the blanks with the words "City of Phil adelphia." He said he was far removed from being influenced by any local interest as a member of the Senate. He wished to fix the capital where it would best serve the people's interest. Wherever the seat of government is, to that place trade will in some measure 596 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY be directed; and it is the interest of the State to secure the trade to her metropolis. Mr. Dorsey argued there were already buildings in Philadel phia sufficient for all the officers of the State government. This was not the case elsewhere. If they removed to any other place, much expense would be incurred in the erection of these buildings. He had many other reasons for voting for Philadelphia ; but un der a belief that the seat of government would not be fixed there, he would not take up the time to mention them. Any other place than Lancaster, however, would be cordially voted for by him. He would vote even for Pittsburg. The motion to fill the blank with the word "Philadelphia" was lost, only eight yeas in favor of the same. Mr. Laird moved to fill the blank with the words "town of Northumberland, in the county of Northumberland." Mr. Burrows said: "This question was of the first importance to Pennsylvania, it was important to the State to concentrate her whole interest in fixing a permanent seat of government. And how is this to be done but by fixing upon, as central a place as can be found? He confessed that for his purpose, Harrisburg was next to Northumberland; but then Harrisburg was but twenty miles from the Southern boundary of the State, and Northumberland was eigh ty. And, (said Mr. Burrows) are we to fix it at Harrisburg, and make the people come over the mountains with knapsacks on their backs, only that the rich at this end of the State may have an op portunity of riding to- the seat of government in their coaches?" Mr. Irish observed that he had lately examined all the situa tions from the mountains above Harrisburg down>tO' Columbia and he thought the most suitable place was near Middletown. That place, he said, was best to divert trade to Philadelphia; a canal was contemplated which would afford water-carriage for produce to the city of Philadelphia from Middletown. The situation at Harris burg was very pleasant and handsome, but not so eligible for the purpose of intercepting the trade and preventing its going to Balti more. He thought a committee should be appointed to examine the situations on the Susquehanna and report at the next Legislature. The question was then taken on filling the blank with the words "the town of Northumberland in the county of Northumberland," and lost, seven only rising in favor of it. Mr. Lane then moved to fill the blank with the words "bor ough of Harrisburg, in the county of Dauphin," which was agreed to, fourteen to ten. The resolution attached to the report was adopted; when the committee arose, and the Speaker took the chair. HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 597 The Senate proceeded to consider the report. Mr. Weaver moved to postpone the report, for the purpose of introducing a sub stitute which contemplated a purchase by the State of one hundred and fifty acres of land, the property of Abraham Huey, a short dis tance from Harrisburg. This (with the motion to postpone) was opposed by Mr. Burrows and Mr. Dorsey on the ground that this land was to be purchased for the purpose of speculation, and that it was disgraceful for the Legislature to enter into it. Neither, they said, did that tract of land adjoin Harrisburg. The report was postponed and the substitute adopted. Mr. Sommer moved to strike out that part of the substitute which authorized the purchase by the State of one hundred and fifty acres of land from Abraham Huey; carried, yeas thirteen, nays nine. The part appropriating money for the erection of buildings, etc., was also stricken out. Mr. Roberts moved that the blank in the resolution attached to the substituted report be filled with the words "first of November," which was agreed to, and the substitute as amended was carried. Subsequent to this action a bill for the removal of the seat of government to- Harrisburg was prepared and considered in the Sen ate, and postponed until the next session. The House of Repre sentatives refused toHake up the bill during that session. No further action on the subject appears to have been had in the Legislature until February, 1810, when a bill, of which the fol lowing is a synopsis, passed both branches of the Legislature and became a law : An act establishing the seat of government of the Common wealth of Pennsylvania at Harrisburg, in the county of Dauphin. Sect. I. Be it enacted, etc., That within the month of October, 1812, all the offices attached to the seat of government of this state, shall be removed to the borough of Harrisburg, in the county of Dauphin, by their respective holders, and shall after that period cease to be exercised elsewhere; .at which said borough of Harrisburg the session of the Legislature thereafter, as well as all future sessions, shall be held; and the said borough of Harrisburg is fixed and hereby declared to be the seat of government of the said Commonwealth. Sect. III. That Robert Harris, George Hoyer and George Zeigler shall be, and they are hereby appointed commissioners, who, together with the respective officers aforesaid, shall superintend and direct the removal of the books, records, papers and other docu ments aforesaid, and shall provide at the borough of Harrisburg good and suitable rooms and apartments for the convenient accom- 598 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY modation of the Legislature, and also for the receiving, opening and depositing the said books, records, papers and other docu ments, and for conducting and transacting the business of the offices aforesaid, respectively; and in case of the resignation of any of the aforesaid officers, or of their or any of their neglect and refusal, or incapacity to attend to the business of the removal afore said, then it shall be and may be lawful for the said commission ers, or a majority of them, to proceed therein as if the said officers were attending. Sect. IV. That the Governor be, and is hereby, authorized and required, on behalf and in the name of the Commonwealth, to accept of the offer of ten acres of land in, or adjoining the said borough of Harrisburg, at one hundred dollars per acre, made by William Maclay, adjoining to the four-acre lot formerly appro priated by John Harris, for the use of the State; and to pay for the same and receive sufficient conveyances and assurances in fee simple therefor, to be recorded in the office for recording of deeds in the county of Dauphin aforesaid. Sect. V. [Appropriates $3,000 for the purpose of making the aforesaid purchase and discharging the expense of removal to be paid in advance — $2,000 to the said commissioners, and $1,000 for the said purchase.] Sect. VI. [Appropriates the further sum of $30,000 for the purpose of erecting offices at the seat of government to wit: one for the Secretary of the Commonwealth; one for the Secre tary of the Land Office; one for the Surveyor-General; one for the Auditor General; one for the Treasurer, and one for any purpose to which it may hereafter be applied, each of which shall be fire proof, for the safekeeping of all records and papers belonging to said offices.] Sect. VII. That the Governor is hereby authorized and required immediately after the passage of this act, to appoint, and by supplying vacancies happening from refusals to , act, or any other cause, to keep in appointment, as long as may be necessary, three commissioners, whose duty it shall be, immediately after their appointment, to fix upon a site in or on the four-acre lot described in the fourth section of this act, or on the ten-acre lot purchased from William Maclay, and procure one or more plan, or plans, on which the said offices are to be built, and after a place shall be agreed upon, according to the provisions which hereafter follow, it shall be their duty to contract for, direct and superintend the build ing and completion of the said offices. And it shall also be the duty of the said commissioners, as soon as they shall have ascer tained the site of the said offices and procured one or more plans, to lay the plan or plans before the Governor, Secretary of the Land Office, Surveyor General, Auditor General, and the Treasurer of the Commonwealth, who, together with the three commissioners afore- HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 599 said, shall each have one vote in order to decide on a plan for the offices aforesaid; and such plan as shall have a majority of the votes aforesaid, shall, by the commissioners aforesaid, be carried into execution. Sect. VIII. [Directs that as soon as the plan shall be decided on, the commissioners shall give notice in two newspapers of Phila delphia, Lancaster, York, Carlisle, Harrisburg, Pittsburg and Reading, for four weeks successively, that proposals will be received by them until a certain day, by them to be fixed, from any person or persons, who shall be willing to undertake the building of the offices aforesaid : Provided, that every contract shall be made in writing, with the said commissioners and give bonds with sufficient surety for the performance of their contracts.] Sect. X. [Provides that the aforesaid commissioners shall subscribe to an oath to faithfully perform their duties. Also relates to the compensation to be received for their work, which amount was fixed at two and one-half dollars per day.] The commissioners on the part of the State, named in the third section of the above Act, in their negotiations with William Maclay for the purchase of the ten acres upon which the Capitol was finally built, wished to have it adjoin the four acres and thirteen perches granted by John Harris, but as the grant of Harris was separated from the Maclay property by a range of five lots extending from High street to Third street, originally the property of the heirs of Harris, (David Harris, William Maclay, Mrs. Hanna, James Har ris, and Robert Harris), Mr. Maclay could not convey the title without first purchasing their lots from the then owners, which he did, and then conveyed the ten acres, as described in the deed from him to the Commonwealth. This deed did not, however, convey all the ground now enclosed as the public ground. In order to obtain it the State, by virtue of an Act of the Legislature, purchased lots Nos. 271, 272, 273, 274 and 275, in the plan of the borough, from the individual owners, and after enclosing what was necessary to complete or square the grounds, and open up High street as it is, sold the residue of said lots, lying between High street and Tanner's alley, and from Cranberry alley to the Maclay line, to the then own ers, or their vendors. The commissioners appointed by the Governor by authority of the seventh section of the above act, were William Findlay, Richard M. Crain, George Bryan, John B. Gibson and William Graydon, who immediately invited architects to exhibit them plans and eleva tions for the contemplated building. A premium of four hundred dollars was to be given for the plan adopted by the board, and two 600 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY hundred dollars for the second best. Stephen Hill, Esq., was de clared the successful competitor, his plan contemplating the connec tion of the main building with the offices by corridors. A supplement to' the foregoing Act was passed February 7, 1812, which provided in the first section for the removal of all the offices, within the month of April, to the borough of Harrisburg, the change of all papers, records, books and documents, placed with the clerks of the two Houses, and expenses to be paid under author ity of the second section, out of money already appropriated for that purpose. The second supplement to the original Act was passed March 10, 1 8 12, which appropriated, in the first section, $13,000 to com plete fire-proof offices at Harrisburg, as contemplated in the sixth section of the original Act. In the second section, it directed the clerks of the two' Houses, on, or before June ist (18 12) to remove or cause to be removed "all the papers, records, books and docu ments belonging to each House, as aforesaid, together with what ever furniture may be thought fit for removal." Hence, it is found by the above record that the government of the State was removed, in all its departments, in the year 18 12, from Lancaster to Harrisburg, and that the first organization of the lat ter was in December of that year. The first sessions of the Legislature in Harrisburg were held in the court house, as has been elsewhere mentioned in this work. The large room on the second story was occupied by the Senate, and the room later known as the court room, was used by the House of Representatives. 1 he State Library was placed in the Town Coun cil room. The entire cost of public buildings and grounds, up to' January 1 8 19, was about as follows: Cost of Executive offices, northwest and southeast of Capitol Building, $93,000; cost of Capitol, $ 135,- 000; cost of arsenal, $12,000; public grounds, enclosure and em bellishment, $35,000. Total cost, $275,000: The cornerstone of the first capitol building erected at Harris burg was laid at twelve o'clock on Monday, May 31, 18 19, by Gov ernor Findlay ; Stephen Hills, architect and contractor for the execu tion of the work; William Smith, stonecutter; and Valentine Ker- gan and Samuel White, masons, in presence of the commissioners and a large concourse of citizens of Harrisburg; and was followed by three loud discharges from one of the public cannon. Copies of the following documents were deposited in the corner stone. Charter of Charles II to William Penn. Declaration of Independence. HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 601 Constitution of Pennsylvania, 1776. Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union, between the several States. Copy of parts of the Acts of the General Assembly of Penn sylvania by which indemnity was made to the heirs of William Penn for their interest in Pennsylvania. Treaty of Peace and acknowledgement by Great Britain of the Independence of the United States. Constitution of the United States, 1787. Constitution of Pennsylvania, 1790. Acts of the Legislature of Pennsylvania by which the seat of government was removed from Philadelphia to Lancaster and Har risburg, and the building of the State Capitol at the latter place au thorized. Also a# list of State and government officers, including that of the President and Vice President. From time to time, attempts were made to remove the capitol from Harrisburg, but finally, in 1864, the matter was dropped by a vote of nineteen for and seventy-one against it. The original capitol building erected at Harrisburg in 1821 and first used January 2, 1822, was totally destroyed by fire, which originated, it is supposed, by the use of an open hearth in the mag nificent suite of rooms provided personally, at an expense of fifty thousand dollars by the then Lieutenant Governor, Walter Lyon. It occurred between one and three o'clock p. m., February 2, 1897, in the midst of a rain and snow storm, and when the Legislature was in session. Nothing was saved except a portion of the public rec ords, and from there many valuable documents were destroyed. President pro tern of the Senate, Mr. McCarrell, and the Speaker of the House, stood in the park and watched the rapid progress of the devouring flames, with saddened faces. The fire made great headway between the floors arid walls before it was detected. The loss included the effects of the Senate Chamber, office of clerk of the Senate and librarian, Senate committee rooms, Forestry Commis sion, Speaker pro t< m, Game Commission, Lieutenant Governor's apartments, office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, House Chamber, Committee rooms, Speaker's office, resident and chief clerk's apartments and the newspaper room. This building was declared by architects at the time, to be the only pure Colonial style of Capitol architecture in the United States. Great improvements had been made within a few years prior to its final ruin. The legislature met the following day in the post office build ing, occupying the third floor, known as the United States District HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 603 Court rooms. The officers of the Grace Methodist Episcopal Church generously offered the State the use of their fine stone edi fice on State street, and no time was lost in removing the fixtures to other buildings, and the State had men put in temporary seats and desks, so that by February 8, both branches of the Legislature as sembled there and completed that session, uninterrupted. The Methodist people worshiped with the Pine street Presbyterian Church during that period. When the debris of the ruined capitol had been cleared away and the box encased in the cornerstone had been found, public cere monies were held at its opening. A parade was had, bands played and cannon were fired. The old cornerstone had been set in '18 19, and the contents of this box have been placed, with many other ar ticles, within the corner-stone of the new capitol. With the burning of the old State capitol the Commonwealth lost a beautiful and well planned Library room, a brief description of which necessarily finds place in this connection, that future genera tions may know something of its completeness. The subjoined is quoted from the proceedings incidental to the opening of the State Library of Pennsylvania, July 3, 1867, at which time Governor John W. Geary was the Speaker. The same was printed in pam phlet form and but few are now in existence : "The dimensions of the room are 102 feet long by 54 feet wide, and 54 feet & inches high. A gallery sustained by sixteen Corinthian pillars, twelve feet high, runs around the entire room. Sixteen pillars, corresponding with those on the first floor, run from the gallery to the ceiling. The total length of the gallery is three hundred and twelve feet. The gallery contains 2,808 square feet of book shelves, while the sixteen cases on the first floor give one thousand five hundred city square feet of shelving. The capacity of the present casing is 35,000 volumes, but ample arrange ments have been made to accommodate its annual increase, for the next half century. * * * The ceiling is elaborately moulded in a series of panels, ornamented with heavy central rosettes. The main panels are formed by the heavy beams of ceiling, and are one foot deep, while those of the ceiling are of simple plaster, inter spersed with fret work. The ceiling of the gallery is similarly panelled. "A skylight seventy-five feet long by eighteen feet wide occupies the centre of the ceiling. This is divided into five sec tions by the beams of the ceiling, those at the ends being semi circular in shape. The ground glass, with border and star designs, rises at an angle of about forty-five degrees, to a central massive ridge piece, forming a figure, a section view of which is a triangle, 604 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY whose base is the skylight and the apex the aforesaid ridge piece. The space thus formed between the transverse beams and the apex is occupied by ventilators, which consist of cast iron tracery work, through the openings of which the air escapes and is conducted through the roof in immense funnels. "The ceiling, with its centre skylight, is magnificent and imparts to the room an air of imposing grandeur, bringing out its architectural effects in beautiful harmony, and displaying its mechanical finish in its most attractive forms. * * * "Directly in the centre of the room stands a handsome hexagon structure of well polished walnut. This is eight feet in diameter. The top sides are inclined so as to furnish facilities for writing, while the immediate centre is to be occupied by a full length statue of Minerva, in plaster. The top projects over the case and is supported at the six ends by small Corinthian pillars. The struc ture itself is provided with double Gothic glass doors. It is devoted exclusively to bound newspaper files and large illustrated works. "The library is lighted by fourteen chandeliers of six burners each, suspended between the pillars along the outer edge of the gallery, and by sixteen pillar lights of three burners each, on the top of the balustrade of the gallery. The whole number of gas burners in the apartment is one hundred and thirty-four, all pro vided with ground glass globes. "The gallery is attained by two magnificent spiral stairways in the right and left corners of the front end of the room. Each of the stairways forms a perfect circle, with a radius of four feet, and are esteemed by practical mechanics as a masterpiece of workmanship — they are provided with walnut balusters, handsomely turned. "The furniture, consisting of sofas, chairs and tables, is all walnut, covered with greep rep. The gallery is provided with four massive tables for the accommodation of lawyers and students. The floor and galleries are covered with a heavy Brussels carpet, woven in Gothic medallion, the predominating colors of which are white, orange and purple. * * *. "Mr. A. S. Slentz, of Harrisburg, was the contractor for the woodwork; Mr. Alfred Hughes constructed the spiral stairways; Joseph Strominger, of Harrisburg, executed the plaster, panel- moulding, skylight and fret work, while Mr. George W. Davis, of the same place, was the master-painter." The corner-stone of the new State capitol was laid August 10, 1898, in the presence of a distinguished gathering of State officers, the judiciary and members of the legislature of Pennsylvania. The ceremonies were conducted by the Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of the Masonic fraternity, under direction of the Grand HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 605 Master, William J. Kelly. An eloquent oration was delivered in an impressive manner by Colonel Alexander K. McClure, of Philadel phia, who was introduced in a short historical address by Governor Hastings. A heavy rain falling at the hour of holding the cere monies prevented many from attending. The guests were seated on a large stand surrounding the place where the corner-stone was im bedded in the solid walls of the structure. It was covered with can vas and decorated with flags and bunting. The corner-stone was taken from the ruins of the old State capitol building, that was de stroyed by fire. Auditor-General McCauley, State Treasurer Bea- sam and Senator McCarrell had charge of the arrangements. Hundreds of people were gathered at the scene of the cere monies and soon after the opening exercises, on the stand, Deputy Grand Master Henry W. Williams presented a committee of Poto mac Lodge No. 5, F. and A. M., of Washington, D. C, who brought with them the gavel used by George Washington in laying the cornerstone of the National capitol in 1793. The copper box which contained the articles placed in this corner-stone was eight by eleven by fifteen inches, and one-eighth of an inch in thickness. After being placed in proper position, the opening was pitched and covered by a dressed stone. Corn, oil and wine were then poured upon the corner-stone by the Masonic stew ards. Among the sentences uttered by the fraternity through its officers were these: "May the Supreme Ruler of the World vouch safe unity, peace and prosperity to the people of Pennsylvania and to the nations of the earth; preserve and protect the fraternity of Free-Masons; make the virtues of the craft a lesson to the world, and the labors of the craftsmen easy and their burden light." Fol lowing this the Clubs sang "Before Jehovah's Awful Throne." The copper box within the corner-stone, which is a great block of brown-stone, hermetrically sealed, contained among other arti cles: A list of names of the Building Commissioners; State officials, the architect, Allen B. Rorke, and the contractors. The Act providing for the erection of the building, approved April 14, 1897. The Constitution of Pennsylvania. SmulPs "Hand Book of Pennsylvania for 1898." Copies of the Harrisburg newspapers giving an account of the destruction of the old capitol by fire. Copies of the "John Harris Mansion House" publication. Various denominations of postage and revenue stamps. A copy of the oration of the day. 606 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY Coins of gold and silver. An account of the arms of the Commonwealth and the Great Seal. Also the following articles from the old cornerstone. Charter of Charles the II to William Penn. The Declaration of Independence. Articles of Confederation; Constitution of the United States,. 1787. Treaty of Peace with Great Britain. Pennsylvania -Constitution of 1790. Legislative Acts of Pennsylvania by which the seat of govern ment was removed from Philadelphia to Lancaster, and later to Harrisburg. A list of the various United States Senators from the State of Pennsylvania, with President McKinley's cabinet. A few articles of historic value, completed the list. During the building period of the new capitol, several of the State departments occupied business houses in different parts of the city. The adjutant general's office was at the old Bay Shoe build ing on State street. The contract for the erection of the new building was awarded to George F. Payne & Co., with the stipulation that it should be completed by January 1, 1906. Its cost to the State, in round fig ures, including all the furnishings, was thirteen million dollars. It ranks second to but two state houses in the Union — Massachusetts and New York. It is elegant, and modern in every detail and ap pointment — a lasting, truly befitting monument to the Common wealth of Pennsylvania. Edward Bailey, of Harrisburg, was one of the capitol commissioners during the erection of this magnificent structure, of which President Roosevelt remarked in his dedica tory address, "I have never seen as magnificent a state capitol build ing before." The capitol was dedicated Thursday, October 4, 1906, upon which occasion it was conservatively estimated that sixty-thousand visitors were present from Pennsylvania and other States. The city was gaily decorated. The Capitol Park was brilliantly illuminated, by lights suspended from the many trees which aglow gave the ap pearance of a fairyland and made the moon look pale. Two search lights one on the Union Trust building and one on the Mt. Pleas ant Printery, played their beams on the capitol building with strik ing effect. Thousands upon thousands of people thronged the new building at night and were impressed by the magnificent lighting system employed from dome to basement. The state constabulary HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 607 were present at the ceremonies in a body, as well as the Pennsylvania National Guard and College Cadets. The military parade pre sented an imposing spectacle and far surpassed any of the great pa rades for which the Capital City had hitherto been noted. The grand marshal of the day was Congressman Marlin E. Omsted, who was mounted on a beautiful charger, heading the various divi sions of the parade, assisted by his orderlies and aids. The weather was not altogether pleasant, it raining during a part of the regular ceremonies, necessitating thousands of uplifted umbrellas, but a hap pier, better natured assembly never met in Pennsylvania. The chief orator of the day was President Theodore Roosevelt, who delivered a masterly address in which he paid a glowing tribute to the Com monwealth. The order of exercises was as follows : Reading of the Bible by James H. Dillingham, of the Society of Friends; the formal transfer of the capitol by ex-Governor William A. Stone, president of the State Capitol Building Commission ; its acceptance by Governor Pennypacker ; an oration by the President of the , United States, and the benediction by the Rt. Rev. Bishop James H. Darlington. During the President's address he was enthusiastically ap plauded, and those who' heard him will never forget his well chosen words. As he finished his speech, a salute was fired from, the state arsenal grounds and after the salute with its echoes had died away, the benediction was pronounced, after which the vast assembly be gan to press forward to' meet and greet the orator of the day. After reviewing the procession, President Roosevelt was entertained at luncheon at the executive mansion, by Governor Pennypacker. The other guests included many prominent citizens, who occupied both the red room and the white room. There wer(e no toasts given and the President's sojourn was short, as he had to make good an en gagement at York, where he was to speak the same day. Presidi nt John Adams and Harrisburg. — The aggression upon American commerce, commenced by the French Directory in 1797, and subsequent insults offered our ambassadors, aroused such great indignation in our country that Congress, on the 28th of May, 1798, passed an act authorizing the President to raise a provisional army. General William Irvine was appointed by Governor Mifflin as com mander-in-chief of the quota of eighty thousand militia requested from Pennsylvania, and took active measures to organize his troops. When the Directory became aware that their conduct would not be tamely submitted to. they began suddenly to retract their measures, and there was no necessity for bringing the provisional army into the field. At this period the people in all sections became aroused. A 608 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY meeting of the citizens of Harrisburg was held at Andrew Berry- hill's on the evening of May ist, and an address was unanimously agreed upon and signed by all present, to which the signatures of others of the inhabitants as were not present were secured, and the whole transmitted to President Adams. This address is as follows : "Harrisburg, May 2. "At a respectable meeting of the inhabitants of this Borough, last evening, at Mr. Andrew Berryhill's; the following address was unanimously agreed upon, and signed by all present to the number of 51. Six gentlemen were appointed to procure as early as possible the signatures of such of the inhabitants as did not attend, and to transmit the address when completed to the President. "To the President of the United States: "Sir. — AT a time, when the minds of men are so intoxicated with ideas of reform, and visionary schemes for ameliorating the con dition of humanity, as to be fatally inattentive to their own security, and regardless of considerations which have hitherto been deemed the most sacred and obligatory — there may be a propriety in the declaration of sentiments, which in more settled times, might at least be thought superfluous : From the generality also, of the practice of expressing approbation of the measures of government at the present crisis, motives might be attached to the omission of it, less honorable than a disinclination, to intrude upon the managers of the public concerns, or a reluctance to suppose that in the resistance of outrage and maintenance of national independence, they would not receive the support of the virtuous and unprejudiced part of the community. Under these impressions, we the subscribers, inhabitants of the Borough of Harrisburg, beg leave to declare, that we are too highly sensible of the prosperity we enjoy, to be willing to relinquish it without an effort for its preservation; and that in our wishes for the happiness of others, we have not lost sight of our country & our selves. That in our opinion, the conduct and designs of the French Republic (scarcely aggravated or made more apparent by the profligacy of their avowal) are such as to produce alarm and indig nation in every breast which feels for the honor and happiness of America, and to excite the apprehensions of every man, of what ever nation or country, who may place a sense of justice, of morality, and piety among the ornaments of his nature and the blessings of society. That under this persuasion, we hold it wise to be prepared for every event, and shall therefore most cheerfully acquiesce in such measures of defence, as may be adopted by you, Sir, and the other branches of the administration, at the present momentous period. And that as your past conduct has invariably commanded the respect and approbation of every ingenuous mind, so we have HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 609 the most perfect reliance, that in future it will continue to be influ enced by the purest motives and clearest perceptions of the public good. "We beg you to accept our cordial wishes for your personal welfare and happiness." To this address President Adams sent the following charac teristic reply: "To the inhabitants of the Borough of Harrisburg, in the State of Pennsylvania : "Gentlemen. — Your address has been presented to me by Mr. Hartley, Mr. Sitgreaves, and Mr. Hanna, three of your Represen tatives in Congress. "I know not which to admire most, the conciseness, the energy, the elegance, or profound wisdom of this excellent address. "Ideas of reformation, and schemes for ameliorating the con dition of humanity, should not be discouraged when proposed with reason and pursued with moderation; but the rage for innovation, which destroys everything because it is established, and introduces absurdities the most monstrous merely because they are new, was never carried to such a pitch of madness in any age of the world, as in the latter end of the boasted eighteenth century, and never produced effects so horrible upon suffering humanity. "Among all the appearances, portentous of evil, there is none more incomprehensible than the professions of Republicanism among those who place not a sense of justice, morality, or piety, among the ornaments of their nature, and the blessings of society. As nothing is more certain or demonstrable than that free Republi canism cannot exist without these ornaments and blessings, the ten dency of the times is rapid towards a restoration of the petty mili tary despotisms of the feudal anarchy, and by their means a return to the savage state of barbarous life. "How can the press prevent this, when all the presses of a nation, and, indeed, of many nations at once, are subject to an imprimatur by a veto upon pain of conflagration, banishment, or confiscation? "That America may have the glory of arresting this torrent of error, vice, and imposture, is my fervent wish: and if sentiments as great as those from Harrisburg should be found universally to prevail, as I doubt not they will, my hopes will be as sanguine as my wishes. "John Adams." "Philadelphia 12th May, 1798." Lafayette's Visit. — General Lafayette sent word on January 30, 1825, that he and suite were en route to Harrisburg, and forth- 610 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY with Messrs. Hawkins and M. C. Rogers, Esq., Secretary of the Commonwealth, proceeded from town in carriages toward York, via Middletown, for the purpose of meeting him. Dinner was pre pared for the party in Middletown. At about 10.30 o'clock the General, accompanied by his son, George Washington Lafayette, and gentlemen from York, were received there and dined. At five P. M. the party arrived at Harrisburg, and were hailed by the ex pecting crowd with great enthusiasm, and escorted to the Governor's residence. A committee of the Dauphin County Cavalry waited on the General at the Governor's. The evening was spent in a royal manner. General Lafayette remained all night, and the next morn ing was taken to the seat of government, where he made a touching address. The Dauphin county bar waited on him, and in the even ing he visited Perseverance Lodge, No. 21, of Masons, remaining a half hour. The next day he visited the capitol again, being received with a salute of thirteen guns, under direction of Lieutenant Weise, of Carlisle. He spent the day about the capitol, and at 4 P. M., a subscription dinner was given, in honor of the great guest at Mat thew Wilson's hotel, at Third and Walnut streets. At his own re quest he sang "Hail Columbia," the company all standing. Then followed several toasts, one being "General Lafayette; Our fathers hailed him as a defender; we welcome him as a guest." He re sponded, "The State of Pennsylvania: First founded upon the basis of Justice and Philanthropy, now governed by universal suffrage on the unalloyed principle of equal rights; may it long preserve these dignified and fruitful blessings." He departed for York the third day, accompanied by a committee from the Legislature. Charles Dickens' Visit. — In 1843, Charles Dickens, the Eng lish novelist, was at Harrisburg. He came thither by stage from Baltimore. From his "American Notes," which were published up on his return to England, we have the following relating to our city of Harrisburg, then a plain country town : "We crossed this river [the Susquehanna] by a wooden bridge roofed and covered in on all sides, and nearly a mile in length. It was profoundly dark, perplexed with great beams crossing and recrossing it at every possible angle, and through the broad chinks and crevices in the floor the rapid river gleamed far down below, like a legion of eyes. We had no lamps, and as the horses stumbled and floundered through this place towards the distant speck of dying light it seemed interminable. I really could not at first persuade myself as we rumbled heavily on, filling the bridge with hollow noises, and I held down my head to save it from the rafters above, but that I was in a painful dream; for I have often dreamed of HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 611 toiling through such places and as often argued, even at the time, 'this cannot be reality.' "At length, however, we emerged upon the streets of Harris burg, whose feeble lights, reflected dismally from the wet ground, did not shine out upon a very cheerful city. We were soon estab lished in a snug hotel, which, though smaller and far less splendid than many we put up at, is raised above them all in my remem brance by having for its landlord the most obliging, considerate and gentlemanly person I ever had to deal with. "As we were not to proceed upon our journey until the after noon, I walked out after breakfast the next morning to look about me, and was duly shown a model prison on the solitary system, just erected, and as yet without an inmate; the trunk of an old tree, to which Harris, the first settler here (afterwards buried under it), was tied by hostile Indians, with his funeral pile about him, when he was saved by the timely appearance of a friendly party on the oppo site shore of the river; the local Legislature (for there was another Of those bodies here again, in full debate), and the other curiosities of the town." * * * Prince of Wales. — He who was then the Prince of Wales was a noted Harrisburg visitor during i860. He was formally received by his Honor, Mayor Kepner, and at the State capitol was invited to a seat in the Hancock chair, and introduced to the citizens by Gen eral Cameron, and royally welcomed by Governor Packer. Great Conventions. — Harrisburg had the honor of having been selected for the holding of many State Conventions of the different political parties, but the number of national political conventions which met here is confined to one, that which resulted in the nomi nation for President and Vice-President of William Henry Harri son and John Tyler. In 1839 the body met in the then unconse- crated Lutheran church on Fourth street, and was composed of many of the prominent Whigs in the country. At that time Harris burg was a borough of about four thousand inhabitants, and pre sented a very dull and ancient aspect as compared with its business and buildings now. Of the candidates nominated for President and Vice-President in this city, William Henry Harrison died within a month after entering upon the duties of the chief magistracy of the nation. INCIDENT CONCERNING JOHN HARRIS. [For many of the facts herein given, the author is indebted to the late Dr. Egle, who wrote the "History of Pennsylvania."] Some years prior to 17 18 an incident took place in the life of John Harris which has received all sorts of versions, and even 6 12 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY doubts of its truthfulness. We shall give it as we believe it, and as traditionary and other facts in our possession supply the material therefor. All the French traders having "gone over Sasquahan- nah," John Harris monopolized the business at Paxtang. In glanc ing over the records of the Province of Pennsylvania, frequent allu sions are made to the excursions of the northern Indians, either to hunting-grounds in the South or to' a conflict with a deadly foe. At one time the Onondagoes, on a predatory excursion against the Tal- apoosas, in Virginia, descending the Susquehanna, left their cances at Harris', proceeding thence to the scene of strife. Situated as he was, at the best ford on the river, he commanded an extensive trade. His Indian neighbors (Shawanese) were very friendly, and of course would not allow any strange or predatory bands to molest him. The deadly foe of the red race is rum, and although the sell ing of it was expressly forbidden by the provincial authorities, yet there was scarcely a treaty or conference without this portion being a part of the presents made by the refined white man to his ignor ant red brother. Of a consequence liquor was sold, and we are told by Conrad Weiser that on one occasion "on the Sasquahannah," the Indians whom he was conducting to Philadelphia became so drunk that he was fearful of them and left them. At the period first re ferred to, it seems a predatory band of Indians on returning from the Carolinas, or the "Patowmack," naturally halted at John Har ris' In exchanging part of their goods, probably rum — for this seems to have been the principal beverage drunk at that period — was one of the articles in barter. At least we have it by tradition that the Indians became riotous in their drunken revelry, and de manding more rum, were refused by Mr. Harris, who began to fear harm from his visitors. Not to be denied, they again demanded liquor, and seizing him, they took him to a tree near by, binding him thereto. After helping themselves to whatever they wanted of his stores, they danced around the unhappy captive, who no doubt thought his death was nigh. Prior to this the Indian village of Paxtang had been deserted, and the inhabitants removed to the west side of the Susquehanna. On the bluff opposite John Harris', as also at the mouth of the Yel low Breeches, there were lodges of Shawanese, and these held our Indian trader in high esteem. Information was taken them by Mr. Harris' negro servant, when at once were summoned the warriors, who crossed the river, where, after a slight struggle with the drunk en Indians, they rescued from a death of torture their white friend. Although no mention of these facts is made in the provincial records, there may possibly have been good reason therefor, and it HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 613 is well known that many incidents, well authenticated in later years, have not been noted in the documents referred to. By tradition and private sources alone are they preserved from oblivion. It was no myth, this attempt to burn John Harris, and although the pen and pencil have joined in making therefrom a romance and heightened it with many a gaudy coloring, yet accurate resources have furnished us with the details here given. The remains of this tree, which in the memory of the oldest in habitant bore fruit, stands within the inclosure at Harris Park, a striking memento of that thrilling incident. The late George W. Harris furnished the author with certain corrobatory traditional evidence, which is herewith given. That it did occur was not only traditional in the Harris family but in others. The writer's grand mother, Mrs. Elizabeth (Thomas) Egle, tarried when a child of fif teen at John Harris', her father then being on his way from Phila delphia to his home at his mill on the Yellow Breeches. John Har ris, the founder, in the course of conversation with her father al luded to the mulberry-tree and the rude inclosure of the graves at its foot, and distinctly remembered then hearing the story in detail which we have given. Robert Harris, a grandson of the Indian trader, stated it as a fact in which he believed. According to a memorandum, made in his lifetime, he stated that a band of Indians came to the house of his grandfather and demanded rum. He saw that they were intox icated, and he feared mischief if he gave them more rum. They became enraged and tied him to the tree for burning. The alarm was given, and Indians from the opposite side of the river came and, after a struggle, released him. Esther, a daughter of the first John Harris, left three daugh ters: Elizabeth, married to Samuel Maclay; Isabella, married to William Bell, of New York; and Margaret, married to Isaac Rich ardson, of Pennsylvania, and then or subsequently living in York county. All of these granddaughters made statements in relation to the occurrence in question. In the year 1840, G. W. Harris had a conversation with Mrs. Bell on this subject. She stated that she was born in 1760. That in 1766 she was coming from Carlisle, where she lived, to Harrisburg with her father and some of her sisters. When they came to the river opposite to Harrisburg, where William Harris was then living, some of the children pointed to an old man fishing in the river, and they mentioned that he had saved the life of his master, John Har ris, from the Indians. She said that she understood it to be when he was tied to the mulberry-tree. 6 14 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY Robert Maclay, of Kishacoquillas Valley, Mifflin county, wrote some years ago a statement as to this matter, from informa tion obtained from his mother and her sisters, Mrs. Bell and Mrs. Richardson. His statement is to the effect that a party of Indians came to trade, and after obtaining what Mr. Harris had given to them, or traded for, they demanded rum, which he refused. They then determined to burn him, and bound him with hickory withes to a mulberry-tree on the bank of the river, and commenced gathering and piling wood around him. While they were gathering wood his negro man Flercules slipped off and informed friendly Indians on the opposite side of the river, who at once came in sufficient force to rescue and save his master. He added, as the statement of these ladies, that Mr. Harris set Hercules free, and that afterwards he directed that he should be buried under the mulberry-tree. Hercules died a considerable time after the death of John Harris, and is bur ied there. Mr. Maclay also' furnished a statement, which he had heard from his mother, to the effect that some friends endeavored to dis suade the old gentleman, Mr. Harris, from his determination to be buried under the mulberry-tree, alleging that the river-bank was be ing washed away and the grave might be exposed and perhaps washed away, and that he ought to be buried in the Paxtang church graveyard, but that he silenced all argument by saying that if you bury me out in Paxtang, I'll get up and come back. One of his daughters, Mrs. Elizabeth Finley, is also buried under the mulber ry-tree. Here, then, is the statement of Robert Harris, a grandson of John Harris, and of three of his granddaughters to the alleged oc currence at the mulberry-tree, and Mr. Harris adds that Mrs. Bell and Mrs. Richardson were known to him, and were persons of su perior intellect. Robert Maclay also mentioned an incident, as derived from the same source, that an Indian, in a distressed condition, on a cold night came to the house of John Harris and sought admission. He was received, and lay by the fire during the night. When the Indians came to the relief of John Harris it is said that this Indian was with them. As to whether the alarm was given by Hercules, in a conver sation with Robert Harris, about the year 1840, in which he said that the alarm on the occasion in question was not given by Her cules, but in some other way, how he did not know; but that Her cules had saved the life of his master on another occasion. Possibly, when endangered by a steer in a flat-boat. But Samuel Breck, of HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 615 Philadelphia, previous to 1827 wrote an account of this incident, in which he declares Robert Harris verified, beyond doubt in his mind, the fact that Hercules was the one who aided in John Harris' rescue. If this be correct, it is unfortunate that the artist who painted the picture of this scene, now exhibited by the State of Pennsylvania, should have been ignorant of such historic fact and left the faithful colored man Hercules out of the wonderfully interesting painting. U. S. CAPITAL CONTEMPLATED AT HARRISBURG. The average American citizen of this day and generation knows nothing of the speculative projects prior to the seat of the Federal Government being finally located at Washington, D. C. But local history should here record the fact that an attempt was made to make Harrisburg the capital city of the United States. This question occupied the public attention shortly" after the close of the struggle for Independence. It was strongly agitated in the Con gress of 1789, then in session in New York city. The Pennsylvania Packet, a paper published in Philadelphia in 1789, published a resolution of that Congress as follows: "Re solved, That a permanent seat for the government of the United States ought to be fixed as near the centre of wealth, population and extent of territory as shall be consistent with the convenience of the Atlantic navigation, having also due regard to the circumstances of the Western country." The resolution was adopted. Evidently the most sanguine and visionary members of that pioneer congress did not even dream of the full developed "West," as it is now known, or possibly Washington would not have been se lected for the permanent seat of government. Indeed, within the past quarter of a century there have been attempts, at different times to re-locate, even to the exact geographical center, which is near Lincoln, Nebraska. However, impracticable this scheme was, the showing of center of wealth and population was all in its favor— a full century has made wonderful changes in such matters. The following gives the views of some statesmen of the early days with reference to such efforts : Mr. Goodhue observed that the members from the Eastern and Northern States had contemplated the subject of a permanent seat of government with deliberation. They had turned their eyes to different parts of the country, and had at last, after a mutual and full consultation, come to an agreement that the banks of the Sus quehanna was as far South and as near the center of population and extent of territory as was consistent with other circumstances import- 616 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY ant to the country. They felt disposed to be governed by principles of accommodation, and were of the opinion that the banks of the Susquehanna ought to be chosen for the permanent residence of Congress. He concluded by reading a resolution to that effect. Mr. Hartley supported the resolution and pointed out Wright's Ferry as an eligible place. Mr. Lee moved to amend by fixing the seat of government on the Potomac, instead of the Susquehanna. Not agreed to — yeas twenty, nays thirty-one. Mr. Madison proposed to amend by leaving it discretional to be either on the Potomac or the Susquehanna rivers; not agreed to yeas twenty, nays thirty-one. On a subsequent day the House, in committee of the whole, proceeded to consider the resolution of Mr. Goodhue, which read as follows : "Resolved, That in the opinion of this committee, that the permanent seat of government of the United States ought to' be at some convenient place on the east bank of the Susquehanna river, in the State of Pennsylvania," etc. Mr. Heister moved to insert after the words "Susquehanna river," the words "between Harrisburg and Middletown, inclusive." A lengthy and spirited debate occurred, participated in by near ly all the principal members of the House, those from the North ern and Eastern States generally favoring the amendment, and those from the South opposing it. The amendment was finally lost. Several other amendments were proposed and lost; and the original resolution carried. In committee of the whole house, next day, it was resolved that the Secretary of the Treasury be directed to borrow the sum of one hundred thousand dollars, to be paid in twenty years, with five per cent, interest for the purpose of erecting the necessary building on the bank of the Susquehanna. When the question finally reached the Senate, that body struck out all relating to the Susquehanna, and inserted a clause fixing the capital at Ger mantown, Pennsylvania. The House at first agreed to- this clause, but refused to concur with some subsequent action of the Senate thereon, and pending the further consideration Congress adjourned sine die for that year. At the session of 1790 the question was again before Congress, and created intense excitement throughout all sec tions of the country, then settled. The Northern and Eastern mem bers were strenuous in their efforts to prevent the seat of Govern ment being located south of the Susquehanna river; while, on the other hand, the Southern and Western members were just as active in their labors to prevent it being thus located, on any point north or east of that river. The vote was equally divided. HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 617 Sectional feeling became so strong that the safety of the Union itself was endangered. Washington, Jefferson, Hamilton and oth er true patriots, earnestly sought to effect a compromise, but were not successful. At last, by changing one or two votes from the northern membership, effected by Mr. Jefferson, a bill, pretty nearly the same as was proposed at the previous session, passed Congress, fixing the site on the banks of the Potomac river, at such place as should be selected by commissioners under direction of the President.

From Morgan's "Annals of Harrisburg," published in 1858 the following is given : "The first locomotive, drawing a train of cars, that arrived at Harrisburg, came from Portsmouth (now Middletown) over the Harrisburg and Lancaster Railroad, in the month of September, 1836. It was called the 'John Bull,' and was an object of great curiosity to the citizens of the borough and vicinity, who congre gated by hundreds on the railroad below Paxton street, to witness its approach. The railroad, at this time, was only completed between Portsmouth and Harrisburg, and the locomotive used on the occasion had been brought to the former place on a canal boat, from the State road at Columbia. "In the month of December following fifteen miles of the road, extending from Lancaster westward, were completed and in operation. Passengers were then taken twice a day in each direction over the finished portion of the road, and over the inter vening distance by stagecoach. In October, 1837, the whole line of the road was completed, with the exception of a track through the tunnell at Elizabethtown, which was crossed over by a good boardwalk. The Cumberland Valley Railroad was first opened for public travel from a terminus in Cumberland county, opposite Harrisburg, to Carlisle, in July or August, 1837." In 1 86 1 a charter was granted by the Legislature to the "Har risburg City Passenger Railway Company," with the following as incorporators: A. O. Heister, A. Boyd Hamilton, John H. Berry hill, W. K. Verbecke, A. J. Jones, David Mumma, Jr., John C. McAllister, John Reel, J. W. Jones, Leander N. Ott, John A. Smull, George. W. Reily, George B. McCulla, R. L. Muench, Lewis Heck, J. B. Boyd. • , The car line was to commence at Market Square, and run to any part of the city, over any opened street or highway; also to John C. McAllister's stone house, in Susquehanna township; the same to have the right to be constructed on the turnpike along the east bank of the Susquehanna river, and to carry both passengers and produce. The charter also stated the right to issue bonds to purchase horses, cars, etc. The document was signed by Governor Curtin. This road, however, on account of the Civil War coming on, was not con structed until 1865, when the company was re-organized and built its first line. In 1873 tne °Id company, not proving a financial suc cess, was again re-organized and chartered. This road was soon put HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 619 on a paying basis, and was operated as a horse car system until 1895, when on June 18 of that year a charter was granted to run "electric motors, cables and other machinery for propelling passenger cars." The name of this corporation was the Harrisburg Traction Railway Company. The incorporators were : B. F. Meyers, T. D Greena walt, Edwin Bailey, H. M. Kelly, E. C. Felton, S. F. Dunkle, C L. Bnnser, A. G. Knisley, D. Fleming, E. Z. Wallower, F. Eugene Walz, Henry A. Kelker, George W. Reily, J. M. Cameron, John Q. Demsey. Some of the Harrisburg lines had been using electric cars as early as 1891, but upon the organization of this company horses were forever done away with, and today the Harrisburg people may boast of one of the thoroughly up-to-date systems of electric car lines, diverging in all directions from Market Square. The record shows that in 1887 the horse-car company had thirty-one cars and eighty-seven horses. During that year an elec tric line was being projected to Steelton. June 18, 1895, the Harrisburg Traction Company was re-or ganized by the consolidation of the East Harrisburg and Citizens' Passenger Railway Company. The first board of directors were: Messrs. B. F. Meyers, T. D. Greenawalt, Ed. Bailey, H. M. Kelly, E. C. Felton, S. F. Dunkle, A. G. Knisley, D. Fleming, E. Z. Wal lower, F. Eugene Walz, Henry A. Kelker, George W. Reily, James M. Cameron and C. L. Brinser., The capital stock was placed at $1,500,000. The first president was E. C. Felton; vice-president, B. F. Meyers; secretary and treasurer, William J. Calder. Since then vast improvements have been made in the various rapid transit lines of the city, until today (1907), trolley lines con nect twenty-three towns, villages and suburbs with the city. The following concerning the construction of the first street railway may not be without historic interest today, when electric cars roll hither and yon every few moments, day and night. The Daily Patriot of April 25, 1865, had the following: "We call attention to the card in this issue of the Passenger Railway Com pany. As this is a matter which is of general interest to our citizens, and beyond doubt will prove a paying investment, we would urge our capitalists and business men to become at once interested. The books are now open at the office of Hon. D. Fleming, on Second street, and at the store of Mr. George Cunkle, on Market street. We believe that this company has fixed the routf of the road as fol lows: From the depot up Market street to Second; up Second to Walnut street; and Walnut to Third; up Third to> Broad; out Brood to Ridge Road; up Ridge Road to Camp Curtin and return 620 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY by the same route. It only remains for the business men to take hold of the stock to make this valuable improvement to our city a speedy ¦success." The same newspaper on June 16, 1865, said: "Grading is all done, cross ties on the ground and contractors are waiting for iron rails." On the 18th of the same month (July, 1865) this notice appeared: "Cars on the City Passenger Railway will run to-morrow morning during market hours to accommodate the up-town market- goers. Persons going to market will take the cars at Ridge Road and Broad streets." July 20, 1865, complaints were made in the Patriot because of the builders' material along the street car line obstructing the streets from Market Square to Third, via Walnut street. Advice was given to hang out more red lights at night. Telephone Facilities. — By recent connections made by the United Telephone Company, the scope of the long distance lines of the city, has been extended in many directions. This company intro duced an improved service by placing the phone of each subscriber on a private line, an advantage that is highly appreciated. The ad vent of the United Telephone and Telegraph Company in Harris burg has resulted in an active competition that has brought about greatly reduced rates. The Pennsylvania Telephone Company also supplies an excel lent service. It has also reduced its rates, and is extending its lines- Its "exchange" and local offices are in an imposing building erected by the company several years ago at Walnut street and Court ave nue. Subways, etc. — Another important improvement is the sub ways constructed jointly by the city of Harrisburg and the Penn sylvania Railroad Company at the Market street crossing, about 1903, and at the Herr street crossing. Both are solid masonry, and built on a thoroughly modern plan, giving both beauty and abso lute safety at these prominent crossings. The two railroads have spent millions of dollars in and about the city and environments within the past half decade. The Union Passenger Station of the Pennsylvania system is one df the largest and handsomest in the Commonwealth. Its track facilities have been increased, and stu pendous improvements on the opposite side of the Susquehanna river have created a new town, Enola, which will be another suburb of much consequence. The Philadelphia and Reading Railway Com pany recently dedicated a new depot, which is palatial in its design and superb in finish. It has also made other great improvements in the city and at Rutherford, where the freight yards are located. HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 621 CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION. The advent of the one hundredth anniversary of American In dependence was duly celebrated at Harrisburg. As the clock in the dome of the old State House struck twelve, the air became resonant with loud reports from several cannon and other powder magazines. The city presented a most beautiful appearance in its patriotic dress ; large flags and arches spanned the streets, and hundreds of smaller flags were unfurled from window and housetop. The display of red, white and blue bunting was never so great in the city. A grand civ ic parade was had at nine o'clock in the morning, which lasted more than two hours. It required fully a half-hour for the procession to pass by a given point. Among the unique features of this gay pa rade was that of a huge stand, or platform, erected on a wagon, and upon which was reproduced the scene in which an attempt was made by the Indians to burn pioneer John Harris. The design was indeed excellent, and a good illustration of the historic event which took place on the river front many years before. A mulberry tree was improvised, to which a gray haired man was tied, while a band of savages stood near with raised tomahawks and glittering scalp ing knives. After the parade a meeting was held at the hall of the House of Representatives, for the purpose of hearing numerous speeches from local celebrities, the reading of valuable historic papers, etc. A. Boyd Hamilton was president; John A. Smull, secretary; and Rev. Joel Swartz, chaplain. Rev. T. H. Robinson spoke at length on the ecclesiastical history of Dauphin county, giving a good out line of all church history in the county for the past one hundred years. "The Heroes of Dauphin county" was treated in a most excellent manner by A. Boyd Hamilton. William H. Egle gave a comprehensive historic address of the early settlement and military periods. All in all, the day was one long to be remembered and at night the heavens were brilliantly illuminated by fireworks. "OLD HOME WEEK." In the autumn of 1905, Harrisburg celebrated its first "Old Home Week," borrowed from the good old New England custom. It was held from October 1 to 7 inclusive. The following is the proclamation issued by the Mayor of the city, in June prior to this most interesting event. "Whereas, The Harrisburg Board of Trade has taken the preliminary steps for the celebration of an Old Home Week, and 622 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY committees of citizens have been appointed to prepare for the inter esting ceremonies and events of that week; and "Whereas, There is widespread interest throughout the com munity in the proposed celebration, which will bring back to Harris burg and vicinity, those who have gone out as boys and girls, for a period of reunion; "Therefore, I, Edward Z. Gross, Mayor of Harrisburg, voicing the sentiments of the people of the city and vicinity, do hereby pro claim October i to 7, inclusive, to be observed as Old Home Week. "I do further, at the request of the various committees in charge of the celebration, most earnestly and cordially invite all who have ever called Harrisburg home, and their friends, to unite with us, and by their presence in our midst at that time show their loyalty to the old town and their affection for the friends of Auld Lang Syne. "It is the purpose to assemble in the churches on the first day of the week for denominational reunions. During the remainder of the week there will be imposing ceremonies, parades, public meetings, visitations of historic places and a good time generally. "The great transformation of Harrisburg during the last few years, its evolution from an overgrown town to the proportions of the most prosperous and hustling city of its size in the country, the building of a magnificent Capitol, the expansion of the city in every direction, all enhance the interest of the proposed celebration and must increase the yearning of every absent son and daughter to come back to the old scenes for a season. "In conclusion, let me urge every citizen of Harrisburg and vicinity/who has the welfare of his home city at heart, to co-operate most heartily with the several committees in making a great suc cess of the first Old Home Week celebration. "Edward Z. Gross, Mayor." Over thirteen, thousand dollars was raised by the Board of Trade and committees for the decoration of the city, entertainment and amusement of the guests. Over one hundred thousand people were present for several days during the week to witness the grand parades. It was a happy reunion of old Harrisburgers and their friends. People came from one ocean coast to the other. The re ligious and educational elements of the entire city had prominent parts in the elaborate program. Hundreds of thousands of electric lights beautifully illumi nated the streets each evening, and many were the magnificent tri umphal arches, here and there throughout the city. Never in the history was there so great a profusion of flags and bunting on all the public and private buildings. Military and civic orders were in attendance in great numbers. It was an occasion long to be remem- HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 623 bered by the populace of the capital city and the thousands of visi tors. harrisburg public library. As early as 1794, some of the public spirited citizens of Har risburg organized themselves into an Association for mental im provement and the promotion of the arts and sciences. This organ ization was called the Mechanical Society of Harrisburg, and it held its weekly meetings, generally at some one of the numerous taverns of the borough. Among its members were the names of Stacy Potts, Henry Beader, Jacob Bucher, Jacob Reitzell and Samuel Hill. From this Society originated the Harrisburg Library Company, which was organized in the early months of 1795, by the election of the fol lowing officers: Directors: John Kean, Rev. Henry Moeller, Gen eral John A. Hanna, William Gradon, Adam Boyd, John Dent- zell, Rev. Nathaniel Snowden and Stacy Potts; secretary, Henry Fulton ; treasurer, Stacy Potts. For more than half a century these and other societies strug gled on to' maintain a library, but with no great success. At a meet ing of the general city committee on public libraries, held Novem ber 29, 1889, E. B. Mitchell reported a draft of a charter, properly signed, which was subsequently passed upon and approved by the court. Working under their corporate powers as given in the above named charter, the Harrisburg Public Library appointed James McCormick, Dr. William H. Egle and Maurice Eby as a commit tee to procure a suitable room in which to locate the library. At the same meeting, Judge Simonton, Dr. Egle and M. W. McAlar ney were authorized to select and purchase books to the value of two thousand dollars. April 12, 1890, the Public Library was for mally opened at its rooms in Market Square, where four well lighted and comfortably furnished apartments were furnished for the keep ing and circulating (free) of the three thousand volumes the society at that date had in possession, by purchase and donation. The li brary was kept at this location until about 1895, when it was re moved to its present home, No. 123 Locust street, which building was erected by James McCormick. From the charter of the Harrisburg Public Library Associa tion, incorporated November 29, 1889, it appears the charter trus tees were: William K. Alricks, Charles L. Bailey, Maurice C. Eby, William H. Egle, Lemuel O. Foose, John W. Simonton, A. Boyd Hamilton, Oscar S. Houtz, Mathias W. McAlarney, James Mc Cormick and Ehrman B. Mitchell. The officers were: Charles L. Bailey, president; James McCormick, vice president; Lemuel O. 624 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY Foose, secretary; William K. Alricks, treasurer; John W. Simon ton, William H. Egle, Oscar S. Houtz,_ executive committee; John W. Simonton, William H. Egle, Martin L. Olmsted, Mathias W. McAlarney and Benjamin F. Meyers, library committee. Their by laws were adopted March ii, 1890. Their "Rules and Regula tions" were adopted March 12, 1890, and consisted of twenty arti cles, with a resolution added, March 18, as follows: "Resolved, That until provision is made for calling meetings of the trustees, it shall be the duty of the president, or in his absence of the vice-pres ident to call special meetings upon the application of three or more members of the Board." At this date (1907) the library contains ten thousand volumes in their well kept rooms, adjoining the Young Men's Christian As sociation building. The library received a generous benefaction from Sara J. Haldeman Haley, from whose estate the library asso ciation received the income from $70,000, and when a sufficient fund has accumulated, a fine building will be erected on the corner of Walnut and Front streets, on ground given by the same lady. At first, books could be procured as follows: "Any citizen of the place, over fourteen years of age, shall have free access to the books and papers of this library, who shall sign a card agreeing to conform to the rules of the Society." In order to maintain the socie ty, a few years ago, this rule was suspended, and a fee of one dollar per year, or fifty cents for six months, is now charged, which enti tles the certificate holder to take not to exceed one book from the rooms at a time — none to be kept out longer than two weeks. All books and other publications are free to all if used within the rooms. YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION. This Association, now such a great power for good among men the world over, was organized at Harrisburg the sixth place in the world. Just prior to 1850 an association was formed in Montreal Canada; the next was at Boston, Massachusetts; and Har risburg came in sixth, by forming her Y. M. C. A. on December 12, 1854. Rooms were secured in the Kelker building, on the second floor. They were handsomely fitted up, and contained in 1858 a large collection of valuable books. The regular meetings were held the second Tuesday of each month for the proposals and election of new members, and for social and religious services and intercourse. In 1858 the following names appear on the record as its officers, etc.: H. Murray Graydon, president; Rev. Charles A. Hay (Luth eran), J. F. Seiler (Presbyterian), Rev. R. A. Castleman (Episco- HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 625 palian), J. Wesley Awl (Methodist), Rev. William Mooney (Church of God), Rudolph F. Kelker (German Reformed), vice presidents; Charles Conner, recording secretary; J. W. Simonton, corresponding secretary; Jeremiah Uhler, treasurer; Robert Mc- Elwee, librarian; A. W. Young (Methodist), H. C. Fahnestock (Presbyterian), E. S. German (Lutheran), Charles Conner (Epis copalian), H. A. Kelker (German Reformed), George Cunkle (Baptist), managers. From the Kelker Block, the Young Men's Christian Associa tion found a home in College Block, on North Third street, and in 1877 tney bought the old Pennsylvania House, corner of Second and Locust streets, and rebuilt and remodeled it. This served well its purpose until 1902, when it was torn down and the present beau tiful building was erected, and dedicated October 12, 1903. The lot and building are valued at one hundred thousand dollars. No regular paid secretary had charge of this Association until about 1877. From that date the following have served : ( 1 ) James McConaughy, (2) David McConaughy, (3) John Lynch, (4) Will. Crow, (5) Willis Hawley, who resigned in 1891, and was succeeded by the present secretary, Homer Black, through whose efforts and Christian manhood the Association has been greatly built up. The Young Woman's Christian Association on Third street, is also of much service in its line of work. THE FAMOUS MULBERRY TREE. May 2, 1893, there appeared in the Sunbury, Pa., American the following item from the pen of Dr. Robert H. Awl, a great- great-grandson of John Harris, the pioneer of Harrisburg: "John Harris, who was my great-great-grandfather, was the first white settler on the banks of the Susquehanna river, where Harrisburg now stands, and the father of John Harris, the founder of the city of Harrisburg. He kept a little store and traded with the Indians. One dark night, in a rain storm, a large Indian came to his door and begged for shelter. He was permitted to dry him self by the fire and sleep there. In the morning, by way of express ing gratitude, as he could speak no English, he gave three loud whoops, and then departed. Nothing more was thought of the circumstance at the time. "A few months after this a band of Shawhese (Southern Indians), who had been driven north and had been taken under the protection of the Five Nations and located at Shawneetown, on the North Branch, went down the river on a fishing expedition to 626 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY Conewago Falls. On their return they stopped at Harris' store and demanded rum. This he refused to give them, when they became greatly enraged, and, seizing him, tied him to a large mul berry tree and made preparations to burn him. They would have carried out their threat had not Hercules, a negro slave of Harris', jumped into a canoe, and padding to the other shore, gave the alarm to the chief of a friendly band of Indians encamped there. They hurried across the river, drove the Shawnese away and rescued Harris. Their leader or chief, it turned out, was the Indian whom Harris had given shelter by his fireside that rainy night a few months before. A painting is in existence representing Hercules as one of the stalwart figures in a canoe as the Indians were hurrying across the river. Some of my brothers and sisters, or their descendants, have the picture representing the attempt to burn John Harris, and a number of them have had Hercules painted in it, which was not in the original painting. I have one in my office in which an Indian in one of the canoes has been metamorphosed into a negro. "This act of Hercules in saving the life of his master so pleased him (Harris) that he at once manifested his gratitude by giving him his freedom, and it is believed Hercules was the first slave ever emancipated on the American continent. Harris, when he died in 1748, was buried at the foot of this historic tree, and although scarcely a vestige of the trunk now remains, the grave of the pioneer may still be seen. His faithful negro, Hercules, was also buried near him. "And I may add that I now have in my possession a small piece of the trunk of this famous tree, which was brought here to Sunbury by my parents when they came here about the beginning of the nineteenth century. It is therefore ninety-two or more years in the possession of our family. I was born, December 27, 18 19, near Sunbury, and am now just entering my seventy-fourth year. [Signed] "Robt. H. Awl, M. D." SOME ANCIENT HISTORIC HOUSES. In 1 89 1, J. W. De Witt wrote of some of the old residences of Harrisburg, and among others he brought to light an historic fact not known to but few at the present day. He spoke of United States Senator Maclay having built the old stone mansion, on the corner of Front and South streets, and the still older one, at the other end of Front street, built by his father-in-law, John Harris, "the founder of the town." He said the house "next to the Governor's mansion" in which Senator Maclay's granddaughter lived so many years, was built upon land given by him to General Anthony Wayne, because of his brave deeds in the time of the Revolutionary War. It was HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 627 purchased by Rev. William DeWitt from the nephew of General Wayne, and the deed of gift signed by William Maclay is still in the possession of the family. There is also old and quaint furniture in that house, sacred because the traditions that cling to them have outlived so many generations of the family. The title of this property came to light in 1889, when a committee was collecting relics and historical items for the Centennial celebration of the in auguration of President Washington, from among the descendants of noted families who lived at that day. Indeed, a wonderful story these old houses could tell had they but tongues with which to speak. The Kelker house, No. 9 Front street, also has its share of in teresting family history, and the ground upon which it stands. An attractive marble tablet in the hallway of this dwelling bears the following inscription : "Lord Thou hast been our Dwelling place in every generation." 1805— 1905. "In memory of Frederick Kelker, born in Lebanon, Pa., October 29, 1780. Settled on These Premises March, 1805; entered Into His Rest July 12, 1857. Also Rudolph Frederick Kelker, born February 17, 1820, who erected this house 18 57-1 85 8, and erected this tablet, March, 1905." harrisburg hospital. Early in the eighties the following historical data was compiled concerning the Harrisburg Hospital : "On the evening of December 3, 1872, the following gentle men met in the parlor of the Harrisburg Bank: William Calder, Rudolph F. Kelker, James McCormick, Jr., A. Boyd Hamilton, J. Donald Cameron, James Fleming, William O. Hickok, Herman Alricks, Henry McCormick, Wayne MacVeagh, David Fleming, James W. Weir, and Henry Gilbert, who passed the following resolution: That 'William Calder, Rudolph F. Kelker, James Mc Cormick, Jr., A. Boyd Hamilton, and J. Donald Cameron take into consideration the subject of a dispensary and hospital, and report to a future meeting.' From this action, much subsequent confer ence, great industry, with the cheerful aid of the benevolent citizens of Harrisburg, came this hospital. "In March, 1873, thirty-nine persons were reported to have contributed $4,335. It was determined to apply for a charter, which was granted in May, a part of the present property pur chased, and immediate measures taken to prepare it for hospital purposes. It was opened August 4, 1873. The first managers 628 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY were James McCormick, president; A. Boyd Hamilton, secretary; J. Donald Cameron, David C. Kolp, William Calder, Henry Mc Cormick, Jones Wistar, Rudolph F. Kelker, Robert A. Lamberton, John Curwen, Daniel W. Gross, George W. Reily, with James W. Weir, treasurer. The first patients were received on August 7th; since to April 1, 1883, there has been treated in the wards 1,788 ; in the dispensary, 26,455; and prescriptions filled from 1879, when that service commenced, 89,919. The total cost of maintenance has been upwards of $60,000, and of real estate, alterations and new buildings, nearly $65,000, or $125,000 as the actual money cost in ten years. No salaries are paid except to those who are in charge of the hospital, its property and housekeeping. It is able to accommodate comfortably from 50 to 75 patients, for whom every comfort has been provided. Its staff consists of eight phy sicians, surgeons and an apothecary, a steward, matron and nurses as required. Its buildings are on Front and Mulberry streets, in the Third Ward, and are an ornament to the city." While this hospital is under the management of the city, for a number of years the State has made liberal appropriations to its support, from the fact that patients are admitted regardless of their home. New and thoroughly up-to-date buildings have been provided, and there are few if any better equipped and conducted hospitals in the Commonwealth : REPORT OF THE SURGEONS AND PHYSICIANS FOR YEAR ENDING APRIL 30, 1906.

The banking business is a necessity in every commercial coun try, and while banks are not usually in the forefront of settlements in new communities, not many years elapse before the business transactions demand a banking institution, and some one with tastes in that direction and the capital to found a bank takes the advan tages offered and opens a bank, where good men having security can borrow money and where those who possess money may safely de posit the same. The pioneer bank of Harrisburg is the Harrisburg National Bank, which was chartered by the legislature May 9, 18 14, with a capital of $300,000, and was organized June the same year, by the election of the following board of directors, none of whom survive : John McCleery, Isaac Hershey, Henry Beader, Robert Harris, Christian Kunkel, John Howard, David Ferguson, Jacob M. Halde man, Thomas Brown, John Shock, Abraham Oves, Peter Keller. William Wallace was elected president, and John Downey, cashier. At first the concern was kept at the residence of the cashier in a building at No. 1 18 South Second street. The bank was in the front part of the house, and the place for the meeting of the officers and directorship was in a room on the second floor. Within a few months less than a year it found new quarters in the brick building at present day No. 21 South Second street, where it operated until 18 17, when it bought the Philadelphia (branch) Bank building at the north west corner of Market Square and Blackberry alley. It remained there until the mid-summer of 1854, when the building was torn down to give place to the better structure on the same site. No. 14 Market Square was where this bank was conducted in the mean time. One of the earliest notes issued by this bank was a "Shinplas- ter," two and a quarter by three and a half inches. This being the first bank of the city, its early officers will be here named, as they are reminders to their descendants of the pio neer days of their sturdy forefathers: Presidents — William Wal lace, elected June, 18 14; Thomas Elder, June 19, 18 16; Jacob M. Haldeman, May 3, 1853; William M. Kerr, December 31, 1856, (died 1864) ; Jacob S. Haldeman, December 28, 1864; Valentine Hummel, January 20, 1869 (died 1870) ; Dr. George W. Reily, September 28, 1870; Edward Bailey, 1892. Cashiers — John Downey, elected June, 18 14; John Forster, HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 631 elected April 19, 18 15; Henry Walters, elected November 25, 1833; James W. Weir, elected October 30, 1844, serving until his death in April, 1787; Jeremiah Uhler, elected April 17, 1878; W. L. Gorgas, 1892. November, 1864, soon after our present national banking system was enacted by Congress, this bank was chartered, it being No. 580, and the name Harrisburg Bank, changed to Har risburg National Bank. For further facts, see elsewhere among the list of present banks. The Dauphin Deposit Bank was chartered about 1839. It stands on Market street and Raspberry alley.

Small was the orig inal cashier. The Farmers' Bank of Harrisburg- was organized May 6, 1872, as an individual bank, with Daniel Eppley as president, and Frederick C. Fink as cashier. It was chartered under the laws of Pennsylvania May 3, 1873, with a paid up capital of $100,000, the same officers continuing. Its location, corner of Market and Third streets. The Commonwealth Guarantee Trust and Safe Deposit Com pany was organized August 16, 1881, with a capital of $250,- 000. The same year the company secured the building known then as Brant's Hall, adjoining the court house. It was remodeled and made the same as a new building. The safety vaults and boxes — the first in the city — were greatly needed and fully appreciated. The 632 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY first officers were: William W. Jennings, president; William H. Hildrup, vice-president; William B. Hart, secretary and treasurer; Simon Cameron, Charles L. Bailey, David Fleming, James Boyd, Lane S. Hart, D. L. Jauss, Charles H. Mullin, David Mayer, Theodore D.

The capital of this concern is $250,000, all paid in, with a surplus of $150,000. THE BOARD OF TRADE. Harmony of spirit and union of action are always necessary factors in the business development of any city. No organization has accomplished more for the city of Harrisburg than that known as the Board of Trade, which was chartered March 11, 1886. Many of the greatest industries which now conduce to the commercial prosperity of the city have been won and located permanently by the united efforts put forth by this organization, to which have belonged a greater part of the best business men of the city. The committees on advertising and of the factory interest have wrought out wonders. The fine brick Board of Trade building on Market street is a monument to the spirit of genuine enterprise with which they have worked together for the upbuilding of the place. As a direct result of the deliberations held therein, Harrisburg has come to be the metropolis she is to-day. The officers of this board in 1887 — the second year of its existence — were: Spencer C. Gilbert, president; William W. Jen nings, vice-president; Edmund Mather, Secretary; William L. 10 634 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY Gorgas, treasurer; Wilson Elder, clerk; L. S. Hart, David Meyer, and Horace B. Mitchell, trustees. The membership at that date was two hundred and twenty-seven. The parent officials (1907) are as follows: William Jennings, president; W. L. Gorgas, treasurer; James A. Bell, secretary and manager; Albert M» Hamer, assistant secretary. INDUSTRIAL ESTABLISHMENTS. The manufactured products of Harrisburg to-day are : Iron, steel, tinplate, nails, iron pipe, steam engines, machinery, boilers, iron and brass castings, steam heating apparatus, typewriting machines, shoes, cigars, book binders' machinery, dressed meats and meat products, mincemeat, brass and iron beds, doors, salt, blinds, flour, flour sacks, women's wearing apparel, silks, art glass windows, sheet metal skylights, rubber collars and cuffs, artificial limbs, band instruments, shirts, bonnets, beer, ale, porter, brick, cigar boxes, candy, couches, mattresses and springs, hoisery, woolen blankets, mining wagons, food products, paper boxes, paste, roller mills, rugs, sewer pipe, leather, fertilizers, iron wheelbarrows, etc. In public- institutions the city ranks high.

The Commonwealth's industrial reports of the latest issue give the following concerning the various industries of Dauphin county, a majority of which are seated at Harrisburg: Iron and its products have 21 establishments, employing 15,077 persons, of whom 911 are minors. Number of leather and leather product institutions, 7, employ ing 1,181 persons, 316 of whom are minors. Number of lumbering establishments, 21, employing 721 per sons, 58 of whom are minors. Number of mercantile establishments, 37, employing 996 per sons, 267 of whom are minors. Miscellaneous manufactures, 50, persons employed, 3,092, of whom 620 are minors. HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 635 Textile manufactories, 25, employing 1,625 persons, of whom 753 are minors. Total establishments in county, 161 ; persons employed, 23,667 — 18,412 males, 4,225 females, 2,905 minors. In 1887 Harrisburg, according to reports of the Board of Trade, had 403 manufacturing plants; invested capital, $8,500,000; hands employed, 9,858 — male, 544; female; yearly wages, $4,049, - 481; amount of annual products, $17,187,910. Harrisburg Foundry and Machine Works. — These immense works owe their existence to the genius and talent of William T. Hildrup, in a large measure, for he it was who was also the gen eral manager of the car works at their foundation. In order to keep their men fully employed, they many years since established factory facilities for makng agricultural implements and tools of various sorts, at which the men could be busy when car-building was slack. About 1833 this plant began its operations, in making high grade machinery, but since about 1858 they have been engaged in building all sorts of steam engines, during which time the wide field for electric power has been developed, they have stood at the front as manufacturers of steam engines applied to the production of elec tric power. With singleness of purpose and broad intelligence and foresight, they have moved steadily towards the construction of the best -engines; attractive and substantial in design and as nearly as possible, as human ingenuity can make them, perfect in. operation. The years have brought prosperity to the company, out of the old methods into new, away, from old shops into the most modern plant of the kind in the world; through a small engine business of a few thousand dollars a year, past an annual output of over half a mil lion dollars in engines alone, indicates the way the company has gone and speaks of the progress in the past and assurance of success in the future. The engines of this concern have in a broad sense been ship ped everywhere, and are at work in the very finest and best establish ments of this and foreign countries. The plant of this company is located at Seventh and Seneca streets in this city, on the main line of the Pennsylvania Railroad. The plant is not only perfection in modern arrangement and machinery, but throughout every department there is organization and method, based on the best business principles which is kept aglow in enthusiastic endeavor by the able direction of its management. The splendidly equipped offices of the company, located at New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Baltimore, Atlanta and New Orleans. Every one of which is headed by practical men of many 636 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY years training in the business, keeps the books crowded with orders and the trade awake to the merits of the Harrisburg engines. The officers of this company, and who are immeasurably responsible for its growth, are : W. R. Fleming, president ; David Fleming, vice-president and treasurer, and Abram L. Groff, secre tary. Breweries. — Greater Harrisburg is noted for its breweries — there are many larger, but none superior for the purity of their pro ducts. One of these is that of George Doehne, established in a small way. The proprietor came from Hesse Cassel, Germany, to Philadelphia, in 1852, and from Fatherland experience added to that gained in Philadelphia, Carlisle, Reading, etc., enabled him to open this plant on advanced lines. From an output of fourteen bar rels daily it has grown to one hundred barrels. Mr. Doehne is one of the many German-Americans who has added much to the good citizenship and material wealth of the city. The Keystone Brewery has had a most prosperous record. It was established in 1862 by H. Fink and Christian Boyer. In 1876 Mr. Fink purchased the interest owned by his partner and operated until 188 1, when the present large brewing plant was erected. In 1897 the death of Henry Fink caused the name to be changed to Henry Fink's Sons. H. C. Fink and Robert B. Fink, the sons, are both enterprising men. The annual capacity of this plant is 25,000 barrels, which finds ready sale in the vicinity of Harrisburg. Robert H. Graupner's brewery, at the corner of Market and Tenth streets, was established in 1895, and is the largest in the city. It is six stories high, and 127x165 feet in ground area. The annual capacity is 25,000 barrels, which goes to all parts of the Common wealth. Harrisburg Cotton Mill. — Among the early industries of the city was the cotton mill, erected about 1852 by a stock company. It was located on North street, between Front and Second, and is the four-story brick building now used as the silk mills. It had in operation at one time 8,000 spindles, and 280 looms, with a capacity of 2,700 bales of cotton, producing cheviots, drilling, four-shaft twills, ducks, warps, yarns, etc. Two to three hundred hands were employed and the monthly pay-roll amounted to $4,500. It pro duced four million yards of heavy sheeting annually. Among those who owned the plant were George Calder, Jr., & Company, of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. This mill was operated until in the eighties, when it was closed down, as it was no longer profitable to its owners. The buildings were then taken for the newly-organized silk HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 637 mills, which are in a flourishing condition at the present time. In 1903, according to the State Factory Inspector's report, these silk mills employed 500 persons, of whom 450 were females and fifty males. Of the total number employed 162 were over sixteen years of age. These silk mills were established by a New York firm in 1886, and produces an excellent grade of dress-silks which are all sent to New York city to jobbers. Central Iron and Steel Company. — This extensive plant — a leading industry in Harrisburg — was formed in 1897 by the con solidation of the old Central Iron Works, established in 1853, and the Paxton Rolling Mills, established in 1869 by the McCormick estate. The first officers of the new company were C. L. Bailey, president; G. M. McCauley, treasurer and general manager; J. N. Binnix, general superintendent. No industry in Harrisburg has been a more potent factor in spreading the fame of the city throughout this and foreign lands than the Central Iron and Steel Company. Its plates have been recognized in the great American iron and steel trade for their superiority, and have been widely used in the construction of bridges spanning the historic rivers of Europe, the waterways of America and the tropical jungles of Asia. They are riveted to the keels of vessels that carry the products of our commerce to foreign ports and furnish protection to some of the mighty war ships that bear the American flag and uphold the American fame in every sea. They form ,the skeleton of many a building that rears its head over busy mercantile communities, and covers humming machinery and throngs of active men. The first mill was built at the foot of Second street, in 1853. Several years of activity followed and then the original mill was abandoned and the large Herr street puddling and rolling mill, so widely known among the men as the "Old Hotpot," was built. This plant was continued as a puddle mill and the business of rollng plates was carried back to South Harrisburg, the mill then known as the "big mill," rolling in 1878 its first plate. In 1882 a smaller mill was built and commenced rolling plate on the 15th day of June, 1882. At this period and up to 1891, these two mills which from 1878 to 1882, rolled 40,300 tons of iron plate, were the complete South Harrisburg establishment. In December, 1891, ground was broken for the Universal mill, and a year later the first plate was rolled. The Universal mill covers 40,000 square feet and is the pioneer mill of its kind in this country. When the mill was built and started in 1892 it was the largest and best equipped of its kind in the United States and was considered a 638 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY model of perfection. It attracted the attention and admiration of the Carnegie Steel Company, who shortly afterwards built a dupli cate of it at Homestead. However, for the quality and perfection of plates rolled it is second to none, having a reputation all over the country for turning out the best rolled edge plate in the market. The Chesapeake Nail. Works, which was included in the con solidation, was leased by Chas. L. Bailey & Co., (incorporated). These extensive works, located near the old canal, were built in 1866 by Charles L. Bailey & Brother. A description of this plant in 1883 gave the number of nail machines as 66, and the annual capacity as 260,000 kegs of finished nails. Three hundred men were then employed. Since the consolidation with the Iron Company the nail business has been greatly enlarged. This plant has now in operation one 126-inch three-high mill; one 89-inch three-high mill; one 72-inch three-high mill, one 42-inch Universal mill; one modern flanging plant. When the Central Iron Works started in 1853 tne product of the mills was from twenty-five to forty tons of iron weekly. In 1878 the product of Mill No. 2 was 3,369 tons for the entire year; and during the six years from 1878 to 1884 40,300 tons were pro duced. Today the plant can produce 4,000 tons weekly, or over 200,000 tons per year. Among the many goods here produced are these : Steel : Locomotive firebox, firebox, best flange marine, and tank. Iron: Solid firebox or charcoal, extra flange, C. H. No. 1 flange, C. H. No. 1 shell, refined, and tank. T Besides the above are the Lawrence Iron Works; the Harris burg Rolling Mills; the Tyrone Iron Company; the Eleanor Iron Company; the Lucknow Iron and Steel Company; the Harris burg Pipe Bending and Pipe Company. All do a flourishing busi ness in the production of iron, steel and their manufactured articles, including steel rails for railroad purposes. The Harrisburg Pipe and Pipe Bending Company was incor porated January ist, 1900, with an authorized capital of $400,000. This capitalization has been recently increased to $1,000,000 of common stock and $150,000 of preferred stock. The plants of the company cover twenty-two acres of ground situated between the Pennsylvania Railroad, Cameron street, Herr and State streets, and consist of an open hearth steel plant containing three thirty-five ton furnaces giving a weekly capacity of 1,500 tons of steel, a 32-inch blooming mill for making billets and slabs, a large rolling mill con taining three 20-inch stands for the making of pipe skelp, boiler tube skelp and merchant steel bars, also a pipe mill of five hundred tons weekly capacity, a seamless cylinder plant for the manufacture HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 639 of carbonic acid gas flasks, and other large buildings devoted to the manufacture of pipe coils and feed-water heaters. The products of this company are shipped all over the United States, from Oregon to Texas and from Maine to Florida, and quite a considerable portion of the output is exported to Canada, Mexico and the Philippine Islands. The officers of the company are J. Hervey Patton, presi dent and general manager; E. Z. Wallower, vice-president; D. E. Tracy, M. E., general superintendent; W. T. Hildrup, Jr., M. E., secretary and treasurer, aided by a large corps of general superin tendents and skilled foremen. The value of the output of this com pany has grown from $350,000 in 1900, to $1,500,000 in 1905, and it is second only to the Central Iron and Steel Company of this city in the number of employees, monthly pay roll and value of output. Harrisburg Burial Case Company. — In 1882, two young men anxious to engage in some business for themselves, with little cash, some faith, and little real business experience, but full of will power and determination, commenced to interest capital in the establishing of a factory for funeral supplies. At length they succeeded in rais ing ten thousand dollars capital. The first meeting of the subscrib ers was held February 9, 1882, when it was decided to form a partnership under the name of the Harrisburg Burial Case Com pany, (Limited). The following directors were elected: William R. Gorgas, H. A. Kelker, W. J. Calder, John K. Royal and J. Henry Spicer. Mr. Gorgas was chosen president, John K. Royal secretary and treasurer, and Mr. Spicer, superintendent. Mr. Gorgas held the position of president until death overtook him in the autumn of 1892. Henry A. Kelker was elected to succeed him January 13, 1893, and held the position until February, 1897, when he resigned on account of other business enterprises, but is still a director. W. Luther Gorgas was then chosen to the position and still fills the duties. The business commenced in a small way, but was successful from the street. The plant was at first in the Farmers 'Market House, corner of Fourteenth and Market streets, but that place soon proved too small and they purchased a plot of ground in 1883 on Tenth street, near Mulberry, containing two acres, upon which they had a factory eighty by fifty feet and another, a warehouse and office, sixty-five by forty feet. In 1884 the partnership was dissolved and a corporation was formed under the same name. The date of the charter was Feb ruary 7, 1884. From time to time this plant has been enlarged until today they have forty thousand square feet of floor space, includ ing two large well-equipped dry-houses. The original capital of 640 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY $10,000 has now increased to $130,000. The success of the concern is due to good management and the trustworthy corps of officers and employes, both in the house and those traveling on the road. The present officers are : W. Luther Gorgas, president; John K. Royal, secretary and treasurer; J. Henry Spicer, superintendent. The above named and the following are the directors : Henry A. Kelker, Joseph Montgomery, A. Roberts, G. W. Reily. Harrisburg Business College. — The city is fortunate in pos sessing an educational institution of such practical value. It was established in 1886, and has enabled many hundreds to accept calls to business positions of trust. It is located at 324 Market street. J. E. Garner, the present principal, is a native of Maryland, who came to Harrisburg in 1876. Harrisburg Iron Company. — This industry was established in December, 1904. The manager, J. P. Luce has resided here for twelve years, and is a man of exceptional mechanical ability. Within this plant are employed fifteen men, and all modern equipments necessary to produce machine work and superior castings. Flour Sack Factory. — Another form of commercial activity is the Harrisburg Flour Sack Factory, established in 1880. It is now owned by M. H. Plank. Paper flour sacks are here made. Two floors of twenty-five by fifty feet are in use. Muslin flour sacks are also made here in great quantities. Paper Box Factory. — Paper boxes have come to be a commer cial necessity. The business of the A. Reeder Ferriday was estab lished in 1884. It occupies four doors on North Cameron street, using three floors with a floor space of 18,000 square feet. Fifty skilled workmen are employed. The output for 1904 was 9,500 boxes daily. Lithographic and commercial printing is also finely executed within this plant. The Jennings Manufacturing Company make a full line of dress and negligee shirts. This is a concern of large proportions and has a very wide, extended trade. It was established in 1899. Fifty persons are employed and nine hundred dozen shirts is the monthly output. The product is sold to the New York trade. J. C. Jennings, who has lived in Harrisburg thirty-five years, is at the head of this establishment. Horticultural Printing. — The J. Horace McFarland Company, whose chief business is the printing of horticultural works for all parts of America and foreign lands, was founded in 1878, and incor porated in 1 89 1. They make books, magazines and catalogues of much horticultural value. From one to two hundred persons are employed, making a daily pay roll of about $200. Forty-six motors HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 641 are in constant motion; over three hundred electric lights are used, and the air in the building is changed every twenty minutes, and thus heating and ventilating are conducted at the same time. This was the original home of the Country Life In America. The Huber Manufacturing Company, one of the best managed industrial enterprises of the thriving city, is a branch of the great Huber Manufacturing Company of Marion, Ohio. It was founded here in 1897, and has a trade extending over Maryland, Virginia and parts of New York state. Twelve salesmen are employed. This concern is engaged in making engines, threshers, etc. The general manager is J. A. Rose, a man of splendid business ability. The "Huber" won each of the four great traction engine tests at the World's Fair in 1893. Harrisburg Steam Heating and Power Company. — In a cli mate where a majority of the months in each year require heating, the fuel question absorbs a good share of every householders income. This company are contractors for steam and hot water warming and ventilating apparatus. The Holly system of steam distribution for heat, through underground pipes is employed. There are now three and one-half miles of such heating pipe in operation, extending to nearly four hundred patrons. The business was incorporated in 1886. About twenty-five men are employed. This method of heating is very desirable, as it does away with all handling of coal and ashes on the premises; is very reliable, and when all the conveniences are considered is very reasonable in cost. The plant is located between 126 and 128 Short street, extending back to Tanners avenue. The combined horse power of the 11 boilers is estimated at 2,000. Here also is located the salesroom for steam and hot water heating and ventilating apparatus. The Harrisburg Steam Heat and Power Company does the largest con tracting business in this kind of apparatus of any firm in Central Pennsylvania, and are extensive dealers in steam fitters' supplies. The Shoe Manufacturing Business. — This branch of business has grown to be one of great commercial value. One of the largest plants in this portion of the East is the Harrisburg Shoe Manufac turing Company, which was established in 1887. It occupies a very spacious six-story brick building on Vernon street. Each floor has a space of250xii5 feet, all fitted up with the most modern equip ment. There are now seven hundred and fifty persons employed at the present time. The present output is 24,000 pairs per week, with a capacity of 36,000 pairs. Twenty traveling salesmen are employed, who ply the road throughout the entire United States, west of Connecticut. 642 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY The men whose enterprise and executive ability have built up this vast business are Charles A. Disbrow, the president and man ager, and John A. Affleck. Both of these gentlemen have had much to do in the affairs of shaping the affairs of the municipality of Har risburg. Besides the above there are two lesser concerns engaged in the manufacture of infants and small sized shoes — the Glenn Manu facturing and the Walters Shoe factory. The Blough Manufacturing Company. — At the corner of North Third and Hamilton streets, is one of the most complete manu facturing plants in the city, occupying a building four stories high and 60x120 feet. It is owned and operated by Blough Brothers, two of the energetic younger business men of the city. Since the plant was started fourteen years ago, it has grown steadily in volume of production, and in a widely increasing sale of its products, which are sunbonnets, women's and children's aprons and women's night robes. The manufactured product is not only sold in all parts of the United States, but a considerable export business is done. Six traveling men are employed the entire year round in selling the pro duct, and at the factory there are 250 skilled employes. The Elliott-Fisher Typewriter Machine Company is another flourishing manufactory, employing six hundred men in the manu facture of typewriters and billing machines, book typewriters, etc. This company was formed in 1896, and have succeeded to the Elliott & Hatch, the Fisher, American Railway and American Standard typewriter companies. They were awarded the grand world's prize at the St. Louis International Exposition of 1904. They were originally located at Brooklyn, N. Y., and Cleveland, Ohio. This company is the only maker of this product and has offices in England, France, Germany, Japan, South Africa, South America, while their machines are sold and used in all parts of the world. They are used for recording in public offices, and for bill ing, tabulating and statistical work in commercial houses, and for railroad billing. City Markets. — On account of their excellence the city markets are well patronized. On "Market Days" (usually Tuesday, Wed nesday, Friday and Saturday) the streets are crowded around the market houses. The produce brought in by the farmers is tastily displayed on wooden stands in the various market houses. The farmers who attend, and really make up the "Markets," come in from all directions — Cumberland and Dauphin counties furnish the principal market men. Some come, however, from York, Lan caster and Perry counties. Many drive a distance of twenty and HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 643 some twenty-five miles. A goodly number drive all night to reach this market place early in the morning and have followed it for many years. Fresh vegetables, meats, poultry, fish, butter, eggs and small fruits are here in their season in great abundance. Thousands of customers may be seen at these market places each Saturday fore noon. In the borough account for the year 1807, a statement is found of the expenditures of monies for the construction of market- houses, the sum total of which was $915.86. The first buildings appropriated for this purpose were very small, and in the language of an old citizen, who in 1840, remarked, "mere sheds in compari son with the present capacious buildings." Of the more recently established markets, we quote from the Daily Telegraph of December 17, 1889: "This morning the Kelker Street Market-house was opened amid very favorable circumstances, the attendance of sellers and buyers being very large. The whole building is illuminated by electricity, and there is steam heat throughout the building. There are also sheds under which horses may be sheltered. This mar ket will supply a very large section of the city, and as it will be open Tuesday and Friday mornings and Saturday nights, it will accommodate many citizens of the growing West End. There is a spacious hall on the second floor intended for concerts, balls and public gatherings in general." Another large market-house is the brick structure built in 1888, on Chestnut street, near Third, where in about the same nature of business is carried on as in those above named. A Slave-day Incident in Harrisburg. — "T. M. J.," writing in the historical corner of the Harrisburg Telegraph in November, 1885, brings forth the following facts concerning a riot in 1850 over a fugitive slave's capture in Harrisburg: "In August, 1850, a man named Littlejohn came from Balti more, ostensibly to arrest horse thieves, but really to capture a fugitive slave from Virginia. He was a detective and soon located three alleged fugitives — George Brocks, Sam Wilson and "Billy" — and sent for help from Virginia. They came up, and the three slaves were arrested as horse thieves. Every one saw through the trumped-up charge, but it was entertained by Commissioner Mc Allister. Soon the colored population of the city flocked to the place and tried to rescue the three fugitives (?). When the men were taken to jail a rush was madly made on the party. A brickbat struck Littlejohn on the back of the head; the constables 644 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY re-enforced the 'Nigger catchers.' The local colored men tore up the pavement from Third street to the Courthouse and hurled them right and left, fighting their way into the very vestibule of the jail, where two of the prisoners got away. Littlejohn fought tiger like, selecting Joseph Popel as the colored man to vent out his spite on. He was badly cut and bruised up, and finally dragged from the place by friends. It was the most desperate fight ever had in the city. Court was in session in a few days, and the grand jury indicted about a dozen negroes for riot and rescuing prisoners. The slave dealers were infuriated and demanded speedy trial, but it was postponed until November following, and then again until January, 185 1, when there was presented to the court a petition asking that the prisoners all be set free. The court was satisfied, the costs were paid, and the black men set free. Even with the lapse of more than half a century, it may be of historic interest to know who, among others, signed the above petition to free these colored men, hence they are here given place in the pages of Dauphin county history : F. K. Boas, R. J. Fleming, L. Reily, R. A. Lamberton, J. W. Wiestling, George P. Wiestling, John A. Weir, George H. Small, J. W. Weir, John H. Berryhill, William Alli son, Theodore Fenn, John C. Kunkel, D. Fleming, George Z. Kunkel, John H. Briggs, James McCormick, William Ayres, Wil liam Kerr, Joseph Sayford, Peter K. Boyd, James R. Boyd, John Zinn, John Fox, Jr., H. A. Kelker, Rudolph F. Kelker, J. L. Reily, J. P. Rutherford, A. Hummel, Henry Gilbert, George Bergner, Lyman Gilbert, J. R. Eby, D. W. Gross, David R. Porter, J. M. Haldeman, Valentine Egle, Thomas E. Reed, J. Mont. Forster, Alexander Sloan, Val. Hummel, William R. DeWitt, E. M. Pol lack, Herman Alricks, George Dock, M. Kirk, John A. Fisher, Emanuel Kelker, William Dock, S. S. Rutherford. "Whigs and Democrats alike signed this paper. The poor slave 'Billy' was taken back to Virginia under the 'fugitive slave act,' which was signed while he was yet in the Dauphin county prison. The enraged colored men of the town chased the one- armed constable, McAllister, to the river bank and over into the water for helping to re-enslave their brother. McAllister became so unpopular that he sought a home in remote parts. The waiters at the hotel were discharged for refusing to get water with which to wash the blood from the hands and faces of the Virginians, who stopped at the Herr House — now the 'Lochiel.' Nearly all con nected with this riot have long since crossed the dark river; a few, however, still linger this side the strand." BEFORE RAILROAD DAYS. A correspondent of the Telegraph at Harrisburg, in 1884, gives the following among other reminiscences from his pen : HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 645 "Prior to the construction of the Pennsylvania canal in 1829 and the Harrisburg and Lancaster railroad in 1837, the population of the city was almost a stationary class. There were then no manufacturing companies, with acts of incorporation, of steam- power or water-power, all trades being conducted by individuals. The apprentice, after having served his time, often started business in a small way in opposition to his former employer. Apprentices for the different trades were in demand, and boys from the country and town easily found positions suitable to their tastes. The prin cipal articles made here for the spring trade of lumbermen and floatmen was in hats, tinware, clothing and rifles, in which a large business was done. "Most of the household furniture was ordered during the fall and winter months by farmers in anticipation of the marriage of their daughters in the spring. These consisted of a corner-cup board, a kitchen dresser, bureau, tables, bedsteads and chairs, and in early times a spinning wheel and reel. These orders kept mechanics busy during the winter. "Working hours were from daylight to dark, commencing in the long days before breakfast, and ceasing after supper. Appren tices were required to work until nine o'clock, the time beginning after the election, on the second Tuesday of October, and ending in March with the spring election. As provisions and board were very cheap, the wages of journeymen were also low. Printers and skilled mechanics considered one dollar per day good wages. "At an early day Harrisburg was a dull place, with a popula tion of from three to four thousand people. Its lower boundary was at Paxtang street, the upper at South street and the eastern at Meadow lane, with its post-and-rail and pine-board fences, between the road and the fine meadows, on which the rich men of the town made hay and pastured their cows. These meadows ended at Paxtang Creek. Previous to the making of the canal and railroads along the lane large bank-barns were erected to store the owners' crops from the meadows and their farms. One of these was located at the end of Chestnut street and belonged to David Hummel; one on the end of Mulberry street, owned by Christian Kunkel, who also had another on the ground later used by the saw mill for the car shops. One at the foot of Raspberry alley belonged to George Hoyer. Jacob Ziegler and David Lingle owned the meadow on which the Pennsylvania depot was subsequently built. It extended from Chestnut street to Market street in width, on which they had a large lumber yard and it was here among the piles of boards and plank that Rev. John Winebrenner (founder of the "Church of God") preached his first discourses after leaving the German Reformed Church. "The land upon which the town was laid out was very uneven, having hills, hollows and marshes, one of which was in Market 646 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY Square. A stream of water flowed down between Market and Wal nut streets, below Fourth street, into Paxtang Creek, on which were located two distilleries, one of which was owned by John Stoner. A pump of excellent water stood in front, which was much used. It went by the name of 'Juliann Stoner's Pump,' John Stoner's daugh ter. The distillery was at the rear of the lots. The ground now State, Tenth and Eleventh streets, was the basin of the canal and was covered with 'woods' of fine large white oak, shellbark and other forest trees, and the place was a resort for wild pigeons, gray squirrels and other game. "Prior to 1840 there was a meadow of eighty acres on the east of Second street and Meadow lane, formerly the property of Christian Kunkel, but later owned by Thomas Elder, the middle of which was low and marshy. In the winter it was covered with water and when frozen made a fine skating pond. The turnpike, when built up Second street, was raised some eight feet above the meadow, along which was a post-and-rail fence, with large old wil low trees growing. A mile-stone was placed there, inscribed thereon '96 miles to Philadelphia.' The turnpike ended at Second and Mulberry streets and was kept in repair to that point by the com pany. "Before the building of the old Market street bridge over the Susquehanna, in 18 16-17, the business of the town was done on Front street, below Chestnut street, and thence down to Paxtang, near Harris' Ferry. After the completion of the old 'Camelsback Bridge,' business changed to Front and Market streets and to Mar ket Square. Market street, east of Third street, was thinly settled, the houses being occupied by indifferent people, colored and white, with large vacant lots and gardens on the streets. This part of the town, with the other unimproved portions, remained about the same until after 1840, when the people awoke from their Rip Van Winkle sleep. The improvements were slow after the State build ings were finished until the construction of the water-works, which comprised the erection of the present water-house on the river and the old reservoir on North and Fourth streets, the Dauphin county prison, the Presbyterian church, etc. The erection of the above structures induced hundreds *of mechanics to remove here, who wanted houses, which were in great demand. "Labor was in demand and wages good, money being plentiful. The borough council at this period issued thousands of dollars in small notes, nicely engraved and printed, of the denomination of twenty-five, fifty-cent and one dollar notes. These good times con tinued until the winter of 1843-4, when a crisis in money affairs took place, with a general suspension of specie pa'ym^rit by the banks, and a refusal to discount. Many banks failed, ruining thousands of men and widows, who were in good circumstances before. Among the more prominent banks that failed was the old reliable Pennsylvania HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 647 Bank in Philadelphia, with its branch at Harrisburg, James Lesley, cashier. Public work had stopped and thousands were idle. The borough had contracted a $250,000 debt for its water-works and other internal improvements. The treasurer of the borough could not meet the urgent demands and suits were entered and levies made and executions issued on the property; fire engines and even the safe of the treasurer were sold at public auction. The notes issued depreciated one third, and were only received for merchandise in a few stores, as but few had the capital to hold them. Among such was Hon. John C. Bucher, a wealthy dry goods man, who kept a store at Front and Market streets, who redeemed them at seventy- five cents on the dollar, for merchandise. "When confidence was again restored, the council issued bonds paying six per cent., to redeem the small notes previously issued. This was the second great financial panic; the first was in 1837, when many persons were reduced to absolute poverty. The next was in 1857 — the last during the existence of the old State Banks. In November, 1873, came the next crash, and was caused by the over-plus construction of railroads and the manufacture of iron and other products. Among these failures was that of Jay Cook & Co., which was even felt in England. Stocks fell nearly fifty per cent." President Lincoln's First Inaugural Address Misplaced in Harrisburg. — Before leaving his home in Springfield, Illinois, Mr. Lincoln carefully prepared his first inaugural address and had it printed at home, on old style foolscap letter paper, from which he might easily read if need be. He had the printer print four copies; these had been locked up in what Mr. Lincoln termed "my grip sack," and entrusted to his eldest son, Robert. In relating the incident, the good President said: "When we reached Harrisburg and had washed up, I asked Bob where the message was, and I was taken back by his confession that in the excitement caused by the •enthusiastic reception he believed he had let a waiter take the grip sack. My heart went up into my mouth, and I started downstairs, where I was told I would probably find the gripsack in the baggage room. Going there, I saw a large pile of gripsacks and other bag gage, and thought I had discovered mine. My key fitted it, but on •opening it, there was nothing inside but a few paper collars and a flask of whiskey. A few moments afterward I came across my -gripsack, with the document in it all right, and now I will show it to you, on your honor, mind!" Mr. Lincoln was speaking to a friend at the Willard Hotel in Washington, D. C, just prior to the inauguration hour. In the document, wherever Mr. Lincoln wanted to make an impression upon his audience, he had preceeded it with an index mark. 648 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY In Honor of Commodore Perry's Victory. — On Wednesday evening, September 29, 18 13, the borough of Harrisburg was bril liantly illuminated in honor of the great and decisive victory on Lake Erie by Commodore Perry. Each citizen endeavored to out vie the other in enthusiasm. Fifty persons donated twenty dollars in quarters, half and dollar pieces, which in those times was indeed much money. Jenny Lind Sang at Harrisburg. — The famous Jenny Lind, who was engaged by the great showman, P. T. Barnum, to sing one hundred and fifty nights in this country, arrived in New York City in September, 1850, and completed two-thirds of her engage ments, when she refused to sing in an objectionable theatre in Philadelphia, and thus she left Mr. Barnum, and, with her own manager, gave many concerts in America, including one at Harris burg. A gentleman named George B.. Ayers, a native of Harris burg, and at the time connected with the Harrisburg Telegraph, was instrumental in getting her to come to his city. On account of diffi culty arising at the Fourth Street Lutheran Church, at the time of the William Henry Harrison nominating convention by the Whig party, in 1839, much trouble was had to procure a suitable audience room for this concert. Finally Mr. Ayres succeeded in obtaining the old Locust Street Methodist Church, but not until he had first guaranteed to cover the entire pulpit over with plank, as the board of stewards thought it would be "wicked and ungodly for any one, except Jenny Lind, to step on the sacred platform, her troupe not all being Christians. He also had to agree that no tickets should be sold at the door of the church, and that, if possible, the rule of seating the men and women on separate sides of the church should be carefully adhered to. There were other serious objections, which were finally overcome by Mr. Ayers agreeing to give the stewards and their families free tickets! The great singer arrived from the West over the Pennsylvania railroad November 17, 1851, and stopped at the Herr Hotel, now the Lochiel. The people came from Chambersburg, Carlisle, etc. The ladies were in full dress, and the church stewards subsequently said all "was done in decency and good order." The concert was a great success. Over $3,000 was taken for tickets. The last song was "Sweet Home," and proved the crowning climax of the evening. In this Jenny Lind had many imitators, but no equal, because it required some thing in the singer apart from the song. Here then was a pure, noble woman whose good name was "far above rubies," and whose tender sympathies could appreciate the meaning of a good "home," while she sang of it. Every heart responded to the inexpressible HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY 649 feeling with which she emphasized her words in tones correspond ingly "sweet," while her listeners were scarcely able to suppress until the proper time, when the rapturous applause gave vent to the emotion she had evoked. The audience was greatly moved and the remembrance of that song was the theme for unending praise. APPENDIX Appendix WARRANTS OF LANDS IN PAXTANG TOWNSHIP.

The Representation and Memorial of the Officers and Privates of the 9th Battalion of Lancaster County Militia, Humbly Shewith — That your Pettitioners beg leve to Represent, that under the former and presant Militia Laws, the Eight Classes of Militia of the County of Lancas ter have been called out and performed two full Tours, and the 7th Class of the third tour is now upon Duty — we Conceive (Council however are better aquainted with the details of the Militia of the State) that the County of Lancaster has don considerably more than thire proportion of Duty. Several of the Adjecant Counties we are Creditably informed, are not less than 6th Clas's Short of us. This we consider directly contrary to the intent and meaning of the 29th Sect: of the Militia Law, as well as a Grivance as it is imposeing an unequal burden not only on those who render there Personal Service, but alsso on such as pay fines for Delinquincy money of whome we know are well affected, but from perticular and unavoidable Circumstances cannot give thire Personal Attendance. Your Memorialists therefore pray Your Excellency and the Honl. Coun cil will take the Premisses into Concidiration and redress our Grivances. And they as in duty bound will pray, etc. Jas.

My trouble was not much inferior to that of an officer on the expedition. The Brigade In spector was sick, and the whole duty devolved on me with the assistance of the marching officers. This however must depend on any discretion given you under the Law, and upon the Justice of Mr. Dallas, under whose orders (as paymaster) 1 acted. The rest of the business would have been left undone and the service left to suffer had I not stept forward. The accounts as vouched It is hoped will be satisfactory. By reference to my notes or some of the receits you will find that five or six of the men who marched were paid after the return of the Army on their certificates of their commanding officers. Some others who would not take the bounty when mustered fearing it would be construed into an enlist ment for an excursion into the Indian country have never received any they complain loudly. I shall procure their name and the proper vouchers and bring them down with me in a short time and before the final adjustment of the Paymaster General Account. When I first had the favour of your letter on this subject Two of the re turns were mislaid owing to my carrying them to and from Philadelphia several times, but now I transmit them as I received them. I am, Gentlemen, with respect Your obedt Servant, John A. Hanna. i o3 6 HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY If any further information is wanted the stageman by whom you sent the last letter is a safe opportunity.
