EGANDALE.

Egandale was a pleasant garden laid out by the celebrated Dr. William Bradshaw Egan, of Chicago, and was comprised within the following boundaries: Commencing at the corner of Forty-seventh Street and Cottage Grove Avenue; thence south to Fifty-fifth Street; thence east on Fifty-fifth Street lo Madison Avenue; thence north on said avenue to Ftity-first Street ; thence west on Fifty-first Streel to Woodlawn Avenue-formerly Van Buren Street-thence north on Woodlawn Avenue to Forty-seventh Street ; thence west on said street to the place of beginning. From this point, where a porter's lodge was situated. a con- tinuous winding drive meandered through the pleas- ure-garden. When its construction was first under- laken, the site was nothing but prairie land and Dr. Egan hanled car .oads of evergreens and deciduous trees to the place, and there had them planted, accord- ing to the most approved method of landscape garden- ing. Near the corner of Fifty-fifth Street and Cottage Grove Avenue was a race-track, whereon the celebrated Flora Temple once trotted. A little south and east of the track stood an ornamental mound surmounted by a handsome rustic arbor; east of this mound, and

HISTORY OF HYDE PARK.

between Woodlawn and Madison avenues was another mound, whereon was an observatory, or look-out ; from whence a magnificent view of the whole surrounding country was obtainable. The grounds were planned, laid out and cultivated with excellent taste and judg- ment, and were not only designed as a pleasure-ga,den for the public, but ultimately to be transformed into grounds surrounding a manorial residence to be erected by Dr. Egan. The prominent plan of Egandale, was that of the domiciliary estates of large landed propri- etors of Great Britain. At the southern end were nurseries, and small plantations yet remain that were planted under Dr. Egan's auspices. After the Hyde Park House was built, the portion of Egandale lying between Madison and Woodlawn avenues was laid out for residence property. The garden was opened to the public about 1863, and the frustration of Dr. Egan's financial plans and real estate speculations pre- vented the consummation of the Exandale ground as he had contemplated and intended. Mrs Jameson thinks that the first school teacher in the public schools of Hyde Park, was Mrs. Ellen Noble, a sister of Mrs. Homer N. Hibbard. Of her recollections of those whom

* The march of the encroaching cily Drives an exile From the hearth of his ancestral homestead ;"

Mrs. Jameson recalls one whose patronymic was the regal one of McCarty. An old, old house that was occupied by James Purcell, who for a long time was a factotuin of Hyde Park, and subsequently moved to Kansas City with his family-was afterward occupied by one Hogan, and McCarty. Hogan left and Mc- Carty died ; in consideration of his services to the Illinois Central Railroad, his widow the Mrs. McCarty, for a long time was allowed to occupy the cabin rent- free. But the railroad had to be extended and the cabin, which stood in the way, had to be torn down, and Mrs. McCarty was as much aggrieved as though she were evicted from her own property, and loudly declaimed against the soullessness of corporations. But she passed on before the railroad as her congeners, the primitive squatters of Hyde Park, did.

Having alluded to Egandale, another portion of Hyde Park may be alluded to, a district that used to pride itself upon being the most aristocratic of Chica- go's suburbs. This creme de la creme of hamlets was called

KENWOOD .- The first settler was Dr. John A. Kenni- cott, who built a small frame house there in the spring of 1856, and settled with his family : there were then no houses near him. The place was named by him after the home of his ancestors near Edinburgh, Scotland ; and, in 1859. when the station was established by General George B. McClellan-then vice-president of the Illi- nois Central Railroad Company-it was called Ken- wood Station ; and thence the custom arose of calling the region adjacent to Dr. Kennicott's residence, Ken- wood, without any definite limits being given to the place. Kenwood Station, at the foot of Forty-seventh Street, is exactly one mile south of the city limits. 'The earliest settlers after Dr. Kennicott were William Waters and John Remmer, who were employés of the Illinois Central Railroad about 1860 ; and P. L. Sher- man. This gentleman still resides in Kenwood and each successive year of his residence but the more endears him to the denizens of that suburb. Near this station, on January 8, 1862, a frightful accident occurred, the Cincinnati express train telescoping the rear of the

Hyde Park train, * Judge William T. Barron was instantly killed, and the following were more or less severely injured : Hassan A. Hopkins, James P. Root, Charles Hitchcock of Gallup & Hitchcock, Malcom Packard, John Remmer, James Brown, engineer of the Cincinnati train, and S. C. P. Bogue-who died shortly afterward. Resolutions of respect were passed to the memory of Judge Barron by the Chicago Bar, and the pall-bearers at his funeral were E. C. Larned, H. P. Smith. G. W. Joy, John Woodbridge, Paul Cornell, and G. W. Thompson. The estimation in which Ken- wood was held by its residents has by no means lapsed with the progress of years; the aristocratic denizen of that aristocratic suburb, esteems it as the Faubourg Saint Germain was considered by the old regime of the Parisian aristocracy. It certainly is an undeniable proposition that in the region bounded by Thirty-ninth and Fifty-seventh streets, Grand Boulevard and Lake Michigan, can be found as exclusive, talented coteries of society as those existing in the old Quaker circles of Philadelphia, in the Knickerbockers of New York and Brooklyn, or the refrigerative haut ton of Bea- con Street. With this distinction ; that in Oakland, Forrestville, Kenwood, South Park or Hyde Park, there is not one social clique, admission to which may be attained with wealth as the sole "open sesame," and there are very few where talent would be denied the entrée, because of impecuniosity. It is only in cir- cles where the status of those professing aristocratic culture, is imperfectly and uncertainly defined, that shoddy receives its perfect worship. In the district mentioned, the inhabitants are too thoroughly gentle- men and ladies to be very amenable to the dogmas of snobbery.

HYDE PARK LODGE, NO. 422 .- In the history of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, mention is made of this lodge, and the rock of offense that the corner-stone laid by them became to an ecclesiastical dignitary. Thislodge was granted a dispensation in 1863, and the first officers were Nicholas Francis Cooke, W. M .; Homer Na-h Hibbard, S. W .; William K Ackerman, J. W .; Edwin Oscar Newberry, T .; John Trimble, Jr., S .; W. C. Lewis, S. D .; George Washington Waite, J. D .; and Fergus M. Blair, tyler. From the blue book of the lodge, Jonathan Asa Kennicott appears to have been the first person raised, on August 31, 1863. The lodge was chartered October 5, 1864, with the follow- ing charter members: Homer Nash Hibbard, James Wadsworth, Daniel Tyler Waite, Samuel Hopkins Downs, Edwin Oscar Newberry, Jolin Middleton, George Washington Waite, Carlton Drake, Charles Sunter, Jonathan Asa Kennicott and Thomas Leeds Morgan. The officers subsequent to the investiture of the lodge with the charter, and the number 422, were H. N. Hibbard, W. M .; G. W. Waite, S. W .; J. Mid- dleton, J. W .; E. O. Newberry, T .; J. A. Kennicott, S .; W. K. Ackerman, S D .; C. Drake, J. D., and S. H. Downs, tyler. The worshipful masters subsequently were H. N. Hibbard, 1865 ; G. W. Waite, 1866; J. Middleton, 1867 68; Pennoyer Levi Sherman, 1869, and Horace Acmon Harvey, 1870. On July 19, 1870, the lodge removed from Hyde Park to Chicago, and on October 4, 187 1, the name was changed to Landmark Lodge, No. 422, which name it still retains.

But a short time after the migration of Hyde Park Lodge the Masons felt the want of a lodge in their midst and applied to the Grand Lodge, and received a dispensation in 1871. On October 3, 1871, the lodge was chartered as

HISTORY OF COOK COUNTY.

SOUTH PARK LODGE, NO. 662 ; with the following charter members : John Middleton, Asa D. Waldron, Charles S. Waite, Homer Nash Hibbard, George Wash- ington Waite, James S. Smale, James R. Stanley, Rob- ert H. Middleton, William Lewis, Pennoyer Levi Sherman, John W. Evans, James H. Ely, James R. Flood, Elam Gilbert Clark, William P. Gray, Ebenezer T. Root, Sidney L. Underwood, George Leach, Will- iam S. Johnson, Charles Creighton, Jolin Barwick, Thomas R. Coleman, Henry H. Adams, George W. Hale, Joseph B. Lewis, Van H. Higgins and Neil Mc Lean. The first officers were John Middleton, W. M .; Asa D. Waldron, S. W .; Charles S. Waite, J. W. and in 1871 the Worshipful Master was Joseph B. Lewis and the secretary Williamn P. Gray ; the ensuing year John Middleton was Master and W. P. Gray secretary. The officers in 1875 were C. S. Waire, W. M .; W. P. Gray, S. W .; Leslie Lewis, J. W .; W. S. Johnson, T .; C. B. Reese, S .; J. W. Evans, S. D .; N. G. Meyers, J. D., and R. Williams, tyler. The present officers are: John L. Bennen, W. M .; Andrew Mc Adam, S. W .; W. W. Watkins, J. W .; C. L. Norton, S .; W. B. Webb, T .; T. E. Wright, S. D .; E. W. Kappel, J. D., and Lyman Riley, tyler. The lodge meets in the Masonic Ilall in Flood's Block.

The intellectual societies had a representative in the Literary Society of Hyde Park. It flourished in 1871, when E. S. Bastin was vice-president, W. Moore, recording secretary, and B. A. Ulrich, treasurer. This society was especially organized for elocutionary exercises, debates, etc. It existed for a few years, then subsided into inactivity ; was rehabilitated December 14, 1877, and shortly afterward permanently demised. There now exist a Lyceum and Philosophical Society, whereat literary culture is the prime object. For the public convenience a free reading-room is maintained in Flood's Block, on Fifty-third Street, by the individual contributions of citizens. In the hall in this block a congregation of Methodists worshiped for some time, but services were discontinued while the pulpit was filled by Mr. Aner. Financial difficulties are alleged to have been the cause of the discontinuance of the meetings. Another enterprise for the amelioration of the spiritual and intellectual con- dition of wayfarers is the R. R. Branch Y. M. C. A., at 4645 State Street. A branch of the Young Men's Christian Association hold meetings on Sunday, the average attendance at which is about one hundred and twenty-five. During week days the library and reading-room are open, and there are held educational classes under the auspices of the resident secretary, A. M. Wilson. Entertainments are also occasionally given for the frequenters of the rooms. This branch is doing an excellent work, and one much needed in the district immediately around the rooms.

Another edifice in the immediate vicinity of the above is the FORTY-SEVENTH STREET M. E. CHURCH. This church was dedicated December 31, 1871, with a membership of eleven persons. On January 7, 1872, the Sunday-school was organized with forty scholars attending. The value of the church property at that time was $8,000. The pastors that have had charge of the church since its dedication were : Rev. M. M. Stokes, J. Frank Stout, J. E. Campbell, W. A. Spencer, George K. Hoover, S. M. Davis, E. M. Boering, Wat- son Thatcher, J. W. Richards, and Watson Tranter, the present incumbent. The Church is steadily pro- gressing and is doing a good work, much needed in

the vicinage of the building; on the east side on State Street near Forty-seventh."

ST. THOMAS' CHURCH. - In May, 1869, twenty person, assembled to hear mass said by Father Bolles, in the building now known as the Kenwood High School. This was the first Catholic service held in the village of Hyde Park, outside of South Chicago, and was the embryo of the present St Thomas' Church, on the corner of Fifty- fifth Street and Kim. bark Avenue. In August, 1869, a small church on the present location was dedicated that has since been en- larged. The pastors who have had charge of the church and parish were: Father Leyden, from October, 1869. 10 1870; Kennedy and Campbell, 1870 to 1873 ; Flanigan, 1873 to 1877; D. A. Tighe, 1877 to 1882; August, 1882, William Aloysius Horan was appointed parish priest. The original St. Thomas' Parish embraced about thirty square miles of territory, and included the three parishes of South Chicago, the parishes of Grand Crossing, Pullman, Englewood and Oakland. The present boundaries of the parish are: Forty-seventh Street, Lake Michigan, Grand Boulevard and Sixty-third Street, and within its limits are eighty- six families and two hundred single persons who are members of the congregation. The average daily attendance at the church on Sunday is four hundred at each service, making a total of eight hundred per- sons ministered unto each Sunday.

THE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH located on Madi- son Avenue, near the corner of Fifty-fourth Street, was established in 1874. The building is a neat frame building, the main edifice twenty by forty-four feel, with a lecture-room in the rear twenty-six by fifteen feet. It cost $2,300, and the lot upon which it stands is worth $2,250, upon which there is an encum- brance of $500. It was dedicated in October, 1874, and the pastors were the Reverends E. E. Bayliss, James Goodman and J. B. Jackson, who resigned Sep- tember 1, 1883, on account of ill health, since which time Dr. Anderson, of Chicago University, held one service each Sunday until January, 1884, when Rev. W. C. Carr, of Danielsonville, Conn., became the pastor. The congregation numbers about fifty mem- bers, and the Sunday-school has ninety attendants. Its present trustees are N. B Dodson, J. G. Pratt, and R. Beeman

SCANDINAVIAN CONGREGATION .- The Scandina- vian Methodist Episcopal Church of Hyde Park was organized in October, 1880, as a body subordinate to the First Scandinavian Methodist Episcopal Church of Chicago, but holding separate meetings at a locality somewhat near to their residence. They have their ministerial supply sent them by the Mother Church, and for three years met in a hall over Dodson & Peirce's store, on the northeast corner of Fifty-third Street and Hyde Park Avenue, and then in the First l'resbyterian church. The congregation has about fifteen members, and has a service every Sunday after- noon and a prayer meeting on Friday evening.

Other existing societies, combining the social, beneficiary, and secretive elements, are the

AMERICAN LEGION OF HONOR .- Home Council. No. 1,046, American Legion of Honor, was instituted November 16, 1882, with a charter list of twenty-three members, as follows: Mrs. Melvina F. Boyd, William S. Gee, William Everett, Olis S. Favor, George H. Leonard, Robert Boyd, Charles H. Arms, George " These particulars were furnished by W. C. Logan.

Warte, guide; Frederick Kanst, warden ; E. C. Ware, sentry ; Joseph J. Siddall, William G. Lewis, Addison G. Procter, trustees.

One other society remains to be noticed-one that has been eminently successful in the achieve- ment of the objects to attain which it was organ- ized, and whose success has made it a veritable institution of Hyde Park. The MENDELSSOHN CLUB of Hyde Park was organized in October, 1866, with Joseph N. Banker, president; Henry V. Freeman and F. W Norwood, vice-presidents; E. Ryan Woodle, secretary, and Goodrich Q. Dow, treas- urer; and under the musical tutelage of Prof. C. J. Smith. At this time the club averaged about thirty-five members, and was a social organization. The ensuing year the club was re-organized and an impressario. Frederic W. Root, employed. The officers were: H. N. Hibbard, president: Joseph N. Barker, and F. W. Norwood, vice-presidents; Charles Leverett Norton, secretary, and G. Q. Dow, treasurer. This tenure of office continued with the change of J. N. Barker to the presidency in 1878, until 1881, when W. J. Fairman became president and so remained until 1882. The present officers are: Joseph N. Barker, president; Homer N. Ilibband, vice-president ; Charles L. Boyd, secretary ; Goodrich Q. Dow, treasurer; M. L. Bartlett, musical director; Mrs. M. I .. Barilett, accompanist; and the object of the club is musical proficiency and vocal culture. The club gives five concerts during the winter, and any profits arising therefrom are devoted to the payment of the musical professors employed. The Steinway piano owned by the club was purchased in 1877-78 by a loan of $500 from some citizens, and this amount was repaid from this source within two years. On May 10, 1882, the club was incorporated so that it could possess property as a corporation. It now averages three hundred members. Another benevolent society, whose object and work is an honor to Hyde Park, is the UNION

CHARITABLE SOCIETY. a ron-sectarian confraternity, whose aim is to confer "the greatest good upon the greatest number " of deserving poor. his officers are : Mrs. P. L. Sherman, president ; Mrs. H.

NEWSPAPERS .- The comiguity of Hyde Park to Chicago has prevented the establishment of many newspapers in the former place, but there are three to chronicle as hav ng lived in Hyde Park. THE HYDE PARK HERALD was established January 14, 1882, by Fred Fuller Bennett and Clarence P. Dresser, editors. publishers and proprietors. The paper ran about six months when each of the editors receiving extremely favorable offers to write for the Chicago Times and Inter Ocean and Philadelphia Press, they discontinued the Herald, giving the subscription list to the South Chicago Tribune. The Herald was a weekly paper, ably conducted, and was a remunerative investment ; its discontinuance was a just cause for regret. This fact evidently became impressed upon the minds of its whilom proprietors; for, upon January 5, 1884, the Hyde Park Herald issued its No. 1, Second Series, with John D. Sherman, editor, and Clarence P. Dresser associate editor. The management and proprietorship
