ORGANIC.

When Hardin county was organized, in the spring of 1853, there were but two townships-Morgan comprising the north-

ern half, and Latham the southern half. Eldora was then a part of the township of Latham. The first business transacted by the County Judge, Alexander Smith, was to divide the county into townships. Township 87, range 19, and the east half of township 87, range 20, was set apart as a township, and the name Eldora given to it. Subsequently, Pleasant township was organized as it now stands, comprising township 87, range 20, and Eldora was reduced to its present size. Unfortunately for the historian, the early records of the township are lost, supposed to have been burned in 1862, therefore only a record of officers from 1863 to the present time can be given. The following comprises the trustees and clerks from that date:

1863-H. C. Webster, E. Richards, J. C. McClure, Trustees; J. Reynolds, Clerk.

1864-James Reynolds, E. Richards, Trustees; J. Q. Patterson. Clerk.

EDUCATIONAL.

Eldora township has the honor of having had erected within its borders the first school house in Hardin county, and also of having the first school held therein. In the summer of 1853, a small log school house was erected about two and a half miles southeast of the present town of Eldora, on the farm long known as the Conger farm. The house was built by sub- scription of the citizens, W. Baily being employed to do the work. It was built ready for occupancy that fall, and Thomas Y. McClure, who yet resides in the county, was employed as the first teacher. He began the school, but for some cause

resigned the position of teacher before the expiration of the term. Samuel Smith was then called upon to fill out the un- expired term, and did so. Cold weather coming on, Mr. Smith was compelled to vacate the house and retire to the dwelling of Mr. Conger, when the term was com- pleted.

There are now in the township 4 sub- districts and two independent districts- Eldora and Xenia. The sub-districts have each a good frame school building, the total value of which is estimated at $2,000. Xenia has two frame and one stone build- ing valued at $2,000. Eldora town has one brick valued at $16,600, or a total in the township of $20,600. In the four sub- districts in 1881, there were 140 persons of school age. In Xenia there were 79. In Eldora there were 654.

RELIGIOUS.

The first religious services held in the township, were in the school house erected on the Conger farm, about two and a half miles southeast of the present town of Eldora, in the fall of 1853. Rev. J. R. Lowrance, a Cumberland Presbyterian, who had lately settled in the township, con- ducted the exercises and preached the dis- course. There are now in the township nine religious organizations, of which all but two are in the town of Eldora. In connection with the history of the town, sketches of each of the organizations will be found.

The Cumberland Presbyterian Church was organized on the fourth Sabbath in January, 1853, by Rev. J. R. Lowrance with J. M. Buckner, Jane Hensley, C. J. McClure, Sarepta McClure and E. Jane
