THE WESTERN HERALD was first issued on April 1, 1846, by Rev. J. B. Walker and B. F. Worrall, as an anti- slavery, anti-masonic, temperance paper and an advo- cate of all the principles of the Society of Friends that decry wrong or injury to individuals or things. The

issue was made upon a monetary basis created by a sub- scription raised by Rev. R. W. Patterson, pastor of the Second Presbyterian Church, the donations to which were principally from that Church; and upon a theolog- ical basis of enunciating the doctrines of the New- School Presbyterians and the Congregationalists, whose interests and dogmas were at that time almost identical. The "staff" of the paper was the Rev. Mr. Walker, editor, Mr. Worrall, printer, and at their office on Wells Street was also printed three sides of the Watchman of the Prairie (the first recorded "patent" paper the mat- ter upon these three pages being common to both pa- pers. Upon the blank pages of their three-sided

(Alfred Dutch) started out with the position that our political, financial, fiducial and business matters were . all wrong and corrupt ; that an entire change in our public men and public measures only, would save us from irretrievable ruin, and that men having character and an interest at stake must enter upon this business, like business men, in a business manner. * * * To . "patent" the Baptists subsequently expounded their de- nominational views, and upon the blank page resulting to them, from their division of the typographical labors, the New-School Presbyterians and Congregationalists elaborated their theology; both papers being issued weekly.

In 1847, the name of the paper was changed to Herald of the Prairies.

In 1848, James Shaw was assistant editor In Au- gust, 1849, the paper was sold to J. Ambrose Wight and William Bross; the former gentleman now being a min- ister of the Presbyterian denomination and a D. D., and the latter an ex-Lieutenant-Governor of this State ; and by them the name was changed to the Prairie Herald,

the co-operative arrangement with the Watchman of the Prairie being continued. Rev. G. S. F. Savage, of St. Charles, Ill., and the Rev. A. L. Chapin, of Beloit, Wis., were appointed corresponding editors. In November, 1851, Mr. Bross sold his interest to Mr. Wight, who continued the paper until March, 1853, when he dis- posed of the subscription list to Rev. John C. Holbrook for $1,000, the sum received being $200 more than the paper had been offered for sale for a few weeks pre- viously. That gentleman changed its name to the Con- gregational Herald, and issued the first number ex- clusively in the Congregationalist interest on April 7. 1853. Rev. J. M. Davis was made associate editor. which position he held until August 2, 1853, when he vacated the sanctum to accept the pastorate of the Con- gregational Church in Rutland, Mass. The correspond- ing editors were J. J. Miter, John Lewis, O. Emerson. Jr., W. Salter, H. D). Kitchell, J .. Smith Hobart, S. Peet, G. S. F. Savage, F. Bascom, J. B. Walker, and M. A. Jewett. In 1854 the editors were Rev. J. C. Hol- brook subsequently superintendent of Home Missions

for the State of New York), and Rev. N. H. Eggleston. Mr. Holbrook was, on July 3, 1856, installed as pastor of the Congregational Church, Dubuque, lowa, but his name remained as editor of the Herald until 1856. Sub- sequently connected with the paper as editors were Rev. G. W. Perkins who died while editor of this paper and pastor of the First Congregational Church, November 13, 1856), W. A. Nichols, W. W. Patton, J. E. Roy, S. C. Bartlett, Samuel Wolcott and Darius E. Jones, until in 1857, when Rev. H. L. Hammond assumed exclusive charge. After the dissolution of the combination plan of denominational publication, pursued anterior to the issue of the Congregational Herald, the Herald firmly championed the cause of the Congregationalists, and persistently maintained its antagonism to slavery or any complicity therewith in any shape or manner, and strenuously advocated the establishment of the Theolog- ical Seminary, as a necessity to the Congregational churches in the Northwest. In April, 1854, after ser- eral preliminary efforts, a meeting was held in the rooms of the Herald, with Philo Carpenter as chair- man, and thereat, consequent upon the logical reason- ing and strenuous advocacy of Rev. G. W. Per- kins, the Seminary was decided upon. At this, and other meetings it assumed determinate shape. Under the auspices of the editors of this paper, the triennial convention of 1854 was called, and they were prime movers in the organization of the board of directors for the Theological Seminary in March, 1855, with Philo Carpenter and G. W. Perkins among the members. Of the death of Mr. Perkins, Rev. E. P. Goodwin, D. D., in his sermon before the First Congregational Church, on May 21, 1876, thus speaks: "I cannot take the time here to set forth in fitting terms the character and the work of this man of God. And there is the less need of this since the Church with touching and grate- ful appreciation has spread upon its records a most lov- ing testimonial of his rare ability and worth. Indeed I have yet to see that eulogium upon any man's char- acter, or life, or work, that for affectionateness of spirit, range of qualities admired, and glowing emphasis of encomium, is to be named with this tribute to the first pastor of this Church. If Mr. Perkins was the half of what is there set forth, either as a man or a minister, he must have been a marvel, a kind of Boanerges and Barnabas combined-such as the Church and the world seldom see. If you can only say of my Brother Pat- ton and myself, when our work is done, that we were not unworthy to be his successors, it will be eulogy enough." It should be added, that a marble tablet suit- ably inscribed was provided by vote of the Church, and placed in the vestibule of the house of worship.

In 1856, a Herald fund was established, to be made up of contributions to the amount of Sio,ooo, for the continuation of the paper, and the profits were promised to be given to the Chicago Theological Seminary. Be- tween $7,000 and $8,ooo were subscribed, which re-in- vigorated the paper, then suffering from financial maras- mus, and enabled it to exist longer than the period treated of in this volume.

As a matter of adventitious, as well as relevant, his- tory, the following, from the pen of the Rev. I. Am- brose Wight, will be found of interest: "1 arrived in Chicago in September, 1836. by stage from Bennington, Vt., to Albany, N. Y., by railroad to Utica. the cars being in compartments, with two opposite seats in a compartment ; by canal thence to Buffalo; by steam- boat Columbus to Detroit, and by stage, so-called, by way of euphemism, to Chicago; each mode from Utica being the worst. The journey consumed fourteen days,

including a Sunday at Rochester and another at Niles I stopped at the Tremont, a two-story wood building. corner of Lake and Clark streets; the steps to its stairs were high and the chamber floor uncarpeted. While looking for employ, it was suggested by a Democrat. that I take the Chicago Democrat off the hands of Mr. Calhoun, and run it. I replied that I was a Whig ; the answer was that 'editing was a profession ;' a remark which t have not fathomed to this day.

" I spent three weeks in November with a surveying party, on the Illinois & Michigan Canal, under leader- ship of E. D. Talcott, and was offered a place as assist- ant engineer; but had already engaged in a mercantile enterprise with John Wright, the partnership including his son, Timothy, with whom I started, the 7th of December, on foot, carrying an axe on shoukler, for Rock River. We settled at Rockton, and our trade at that point lasted until the death of the elder partner, in 1839. I then went to Rockford, where, in 1842-43, I made my first editorial venture, with the Winnebago Forum, the first ancestor of the Rockford Register. It was not a paying institution, and I listened to a proposition of John S. Wright, son of my mercantile partner, to enter upon the editorship of the Prairie Farmer. This I did in May, 1843, and so continued with one brief interval. until January, 1856. Soon after my connection with the paper, Mr. Wright left for New York and Washington for three weeks. The three weeks became eleven months; the effect of which was to throw the whole management of the paper upon me, both as publisher and editor. So it continued until the year 1851, Mr. Wright's name re- mained as editor and publisher, but his editorial work was confined to the educational department, for which he occasionally wrote. He did not claim any considera- ble acquaintance with agriculture, having, I think, never worked a day upon a farm in his life. But he was a man quick to see a need or an opportunity, and had com- menced the Farmer in 1841, and had been its sole editor until my connection with it. * * *

* In the sum- mer of 1849, Hon. William Bross, who had been joined with S. C. Griggs in the book business, but had become separated from the firm, persuaded me to purchase with him the Herald of the Prairie, of Rev. J. B. Walker, and enter upon its publication; he to manage the busi- ness and I to do the chief editing. We entered upon the work in August, 1849, and continued together until November, 1851, when Mr. Bross sold his interest to me. Icarried it on until March, 1853, when I solch the list of subscribers to Rev. J. C. Holbrook, and dis- continued the paper. * After the sale of the * list to Mr. Holbrook, a new paper in the interest of the Congregationalists was started and continued for some nine years, called the Congregational Herald, which cost something each year above its receipts. But under none of its publishers, or names, was it a success. About the time, or before our purchase of it, the two denominations began to pull apart. Various canses were concerned in this. The great anti-slavery contest was on hand, and Chicago was a sort of Western headquarters of that agitation. That agitation divided society, both secular and religious, and take what ground you woukl, you dis- pleased somebody. Nor was the displeasure slight. It was characterized by a bitterness hardly conceivable now. After my connection with the Herald with Mr. Bross in 1849. 1 did the chief editing of both papers. the Herald and the Farmer, for a time, say for that and the next year, till 1851."

In 1846 Robert Wilson published the DAILY CAVA- WER, a penny paper. After it had been in existence a short time Rev. William Rounseville made a contract to
