The little village of Bremen is the market town of the agricultural district round about it, and of which it is the commercial and social center. It is a quiet yet withal a thriving little place, and its citizens, mainly Germans and Hollanders, are distinguished for that thrift and industry so characteristic of these races. In the biographical sketches which here follow will be found much that is of interest concerning them and of their trials and triumphs as early settlers of Cook County.

HISTORY OF RICH.

Rich Township is bounded on the north by the Matteson, is situated at the junction of the Illinois township of Bremen, on the east by township of Bloom and on the south and west by Will County. It is, in size, a full Congressional township, and con- tains within its limits the villages of Matteson and Richton.

MATTESON.

This village, which was named in honor of Gov.

Central aud Michigan Central railroads, and is one of the oldest German hamlets in Cook County The village was surveyed for N. D. Ellwood of Joliet and Jacob Rich of Richton, in 185h, The first house on it was built by Charles Ohiendorf, in July of that year. Mr. Ohlendorf was also the first merchant in the place.

Steichelman built and opened to the public the first hotel in the village. The first train over the Illinois Central road to Joliet, passed by Matteson in Jant- ary, 1852, and the first over the Joliet division of the Michigan Central, in June of the following year. The first school in the village was established in 1865, and the first religious society four years later. Among the early German settlers in the vicinity of Matteson were F. P. Weishaar, M. Emmerich, A. Krudenning, S. Lux, C. Stneuke, II. Mahler, II. Merker. J. Blatt. mer, F Kliene, C. II. Greenhager and F. Duensing. The village has, by the census of 1880, a population of nearly 500, and is a growing and thriving little place. Its business interests are represented by two general stores, two hotels, two saloons and boarding houses, one shoe shop, a clothing store, a hardware and furniture store, two harness shops and a black- smith and wagon shop. The Matteson grain elevator was built in 1881, for Marsh & Spier, by whom it is now operated. The building, with machinery, cost some $4,000, and lias a capacity of 200,000 bushels.

The religious societies of Matteson have not as yet erected a house of worship. The Lutherans use the German school-house for services, while the English- speaking people hold union meetings in the public school-house of the district.

RICHTON.

This little hamlet is situated near the southern line of the county, twenty-nine miles south of Chicago and only one mile directly south of Matteson. The Illinois Central road has a depot here, while immediately north, at Matteson, is the crossing of the same road with the Michigan Central line, giving to the place and to the farmers roundabout splendid railroad facil- ities. Among those to first settle in this vicinity were the Reill, Millar and Merker families. The farming community is made up of Germans who located lands here in the years between 1848 and 1855. George D. Lewis was the first station agent at this point. Rich- ton village was surveyed in 1853, for John Calhoun, of Chicago. The German Lutheran Church was organized in 1841, and the building then erected is still standing and vet used as a place of worship. Rev. Mr Kuegele was the first pastor, and Rev. B. Burfeind is the present minister in charge. The German Union Church was organized in 1868, und

two years later a church edifice was erected. Rev. . 11. 1807. At the age of twenty-one he emigrated to America, Messrs. Nirhms and Rheim were the first pastors, the latter being succeeded by Rev. D. Behrems, who con- tinned in charge until in December. 1880, when he resigned his position to accept a call from a Church in the State of New York.

Peter Pliefer came to Chicago in June, 1844, and first sottled in the town of Proviso, but five years later removed to Rich, where he yet resides. The first merchant in the village of Richton was a nephew of John Calhoun of Chicago. So snys Mr. Merker, the pioneer settler of the place. The okl pioneer also relates, with much pleasure, that John Wentworth once worked for him in the harvest field. The cir- cumstances were as follows : Mr. Merker and a neigh - bor, George Reill, bought from the MeCormick Reaper Company of Chicago one of the first reapers which the company built after its establishment in this city, and it was on Mr. Merker's farm that it did its first work. Jolin Wentworth was much inter- ested in the machine, as to its being a success, so much so that he went down to see it in operation. In those days self-rakers (much less self-binders) were not

thought of, and a man was required to ride on the reaper, his seat being put back of the driver, and with a wooden fork or rake divide the grain and rake

it off into bundles for the binders. Mr. Merker was short a hand to do this work, 80 " Long John" mounted the reaper and raked oats for him. Mr. Wentworth, whose subsequent career is well known, has never forgotten this incident, the remembrance of which affords him much pleasure to recount as among his experiences in early times in the West.

HENRY MERKER. to whom at present belongs the distinc- tion of being the oldest living German farm-settler of Cook County, was born in Ingerwiber, near Strasburg, November arriving in this country on the 24th day of August. 1828. Ilis first employment was as a laborer on the railroad which was begun in that year between Baltimore and Washing- ton, and which was the first steam railroad built in the United Sintes. In 1829 Mr. Merker came West and located in New Lancaster, Ohio. On the sixteenth of April, 1831, he was united in marriage with Eleanor Hemmion, with whom he lived until her death in 1854. By this marriage there were four children, two of whom are now dead. In 1836 Mr. Merker concluded to remove still farther West and on the 20th of August of that year he arrived in Rich Township and settled on the farm just east of the village, and on which he still resides. In 1855 he was married to Christina Schilling, who yet lives, and by whom he has had six children, five of whom are living. Mr. Merker, though past the three score years and ten which are usually allotted to man, is still possessed of reasonable health and vigor, and bids fair to live for another score of years at least. At the old settlers' annual reunion, held in Chicago in 1882, he and his estimable wife were each presented by the German Old Settlers' Club with a gold medal commemorative of their advanced age and of the fact that Mr. Merker was the oldest farmer in the county.

The Township was organized in 1850, the first annual election being held on the second day of April of that year. The first officers were, Eli Taylor, Supervisor; Jacob Reill, Clerk; Walter Goodenow,

HISTORY OF BLOOM.

This township is situated in the sontheast corner of the county nud is bonudel on the north by Thornton, on the east hy Lake County, Ind., on the south by Will County, and on the West hy the township of Rich. As an agricultural district it ranks among the most fertile and productive of any in the enunty, and is watered by several streams, trilitaries of the Calu- met, which afford splendid natural drainage, while along their valleys beautiful groves of timber ubound. The surface of the country being thus diversified with alternating wood and prairie laud oud with large and finely cultivated farins, presents a most pleasing piet- ure to the eye. "To its present state of agricultural development. it has been brought by the earnest and untiring labors of those men, who nearly fifty years ago, settled here mul began the work of building up a civ- ilized enminnuity, where before had been ouly the vast and trackless prairie. Of these old settlers the major- ity took their lands at Government prices, and to-day owu farais, which ut a forced sale wonkl bring them from $50 to $00 per acre. The great change, which in comparatively so short a tiane, has been wrought in the agricultural districts of the West, is only another illustration of that progress of a civilization which in its advancement has had no equal in the history of the world.

Originally, and until 1850, the town of Bloom was a part of what was then known as Thornton Precinct, composed of the towns of Bloom, Rich and Thornton. In that year, however, its inhabitants by popular vote, decided to adopt the township form of government, and nt their first election, held April 2. at the school- house, near Samuel Sloam's farm, the following named persons were chosen as its first officers: Joseph Hol- brook, Supervisor; John C.
