Bourbon has a two-story brick school house, which was built about 1857, and is therefore, probably, the first brick built in the county. There is also a neat Baptist Church lately crected by the influence and means of citizens yet remaining. The place, however, has about lost the character of a village, there being at present neither a store or post office, the nearest being at Chesterville on the I. M.

HISTORY OF
Railway, which is a small station about one- half mile south of the ancient site of Fillmore. Fillmore had been laid out by H. Russel in 1848, on section 35, 15, 7, and the firm of Bales & Trowbridge, after- wards Bales, Osborn & Co., controlled the trade of a large arca; but the business of this house was removed to Arcola, and Fillmore is among the things that were. Mr. Bales was Associate Justice of the county in 1861, and Supervisor of the township in 1872. Bagdad is a point on the Okaw three miles west of Arcola.
The town of Arthur, one of the most recent enterprises of the kind, is in section 30, 15, 7, and was laid off by the Paris & Decatur Railroad, on the lands of Warren in Moultrie county, and the Mur- phy's of Douglas. It is a thriving place with several stores and ele- vators, and having in it some of the best business talent of the coun- try. Its importance as a shipping and trading point is being reluctantly acknowledged by neighboring towns. The first business house was put up by Jacob Sears. The population in 1875 was about 300.
Newton I. Cooper, of this township, was elected Sheriff of the county in the fall of 1870, up to which time for a period, he had been Township Collector. In the following March he disappeared sud- denly, leaving between five and six thousand dollars of township funds unaccounted for. Cooper, a recent comer in the neighborhood, was a man of pleasing address aud appearance, and that, together with his rather notable business qualifications, inspired confidence in all who had dealings with him.
On Thursday afternoon, November 4, 1875, Mr. R. P. McWil- liams, a well known and highly respected citizen of Bourbon town- ship, was instantly killed at the highway crossing of the Illinois Mid- land Railway, west of Arcola city and near the residence of Jacob Moore. He was driving a mule team attached to a wagon. He approached the crossing and, as he thought, allowed the train to pass and began to resume his way, probably, naturally looking at the train, but he was unfortunately caught by the latter part of the train, which had become uncoupled. The team escaped.
The name of this township is derived from that of Bourbon county, Kentucky, which was represented by several of the first set- tlers. The people voted bonds in aid of the I. M. Railway to the amount of $35,000; and it ranked the fifth in the county in point of population, by the Census of 1870, the number of inhabitants being put at 1,457.
The township has contributed liberally of her citizens to the pub- lic service. John Chandler, the first Clerk of the county, was elected
67
DOUGLAS COUNTY.
in 1859 and again in 1861. Caleb Bales was Associate Justice for a term beginning November, 1861, and was also Supervisor in 1872. Samuel B. Logan was the first Sheriff of the county, 1859. Newton I. Cooper was made Sheriff in 1870 Lemuel Chandler served as 1 Supervisor in 1868-69-70.71, and had also charge of the interests of the county in realizing from the State the amount due from swamp lands. M. D. Bartholomew was Supervisor in 1873, and was succeeded by Andrew Ray in 1874, who was returned in 1875. The present Super- visor is J. F. Bouck, who came from Ohio in 1866. He served with a Captain's commission in the 154th Reginient of that State in the war of IS61.

HISTORY OF
BOWDRE TOWNSHIP.
" Vestigia Nulla Retrorsum."
Bowdre Township has 481/2 square miles of territory. When Township organization was adopted in 1868, this township was called Deer Creek, after the water course of that name which traverses it, and had been a part of Collins Precint in Coles county. At the first meeting of the Board of Supervisors it was discovered that there was a Deer Creek Township in Tazewell county, whereupon the name was changed to Bowdre, in honor of Benjamin Bowdre, who was one of the oldest settlers. He is yet living on his farm in the township. The Embarras river runs through the northeast part and receives Scattering Fork in the north. It is traversed by the Illinois Midland Railway, from the west to the southeast, a considerable deflection hav- ing been made in the line of the road that it might pass within a mile of the centre of the township, upon which condition and for other reasons, the people of the township voted bonds in aid of the road to the amount of $30,000. The legality of calling the election and of voting the bonds having been called in question, and being now in litigation, whether these bonds will finally have to be paid or not is unknown.
The town or village of Hindsboro is situated in section 6, 14, 10, and was laid out by the railroad company upon the lands of the Hinds Brothers in 1874, the plat covering about sixty-two acres. The rail- road here runs about southeast and the plan of the town is in conform- ity with it, the principal streets being at right angles and parallel with the line of the road. The place is improving rapidly and has claims as a shipping point which can not be ignored. Here Lodge No. 571, I. O. O. F., was instituted April 12, 1875, the first officers of which
69
DOUGLAS COUNTY.
were: J. Gerard, N. G .; B. F. Strader, V. G .; J. M. Dwinnell, Sec- retary, and Jas. Stites, Treasurer; J. Gerard, D. G. M. The present membership is 30.
The village of Bridgeport, situated in section 13, 15, 9, has a post office called Hugo, and is the the scene of about the last appearance of Indians in the county, a trading store having been kept here by one Vessar in I829-30.
Among the earlier settlers was Isaac Davidson, who arrived in IS3S, and is still living on his farm, section 19, 15, 9. Jas. A. Breeden, built the first house between the Okaw timber, eight miles to the west, and the well known "Wallace Stand," west of Hickory Grove. He settled in I853 on section 9, 14, 9, where he still lives. The "Wallace Stand" was the residence of the family of A. G. Wallace, of Tuscola, who was the first Circuit Clerk of the county, a position he held by re-election for over twelve years.
John Davis, Shiloah Gill, John Barnet and others lived here in the years of the early settlers. John Barnet-called "Jack" by everybody -came from Kentucky to the Little Vermillion in 1832, and to his present residence, then Coles county, in 1842. The life partners of several well known prominent citizens were taken from his family. John Davis, the father of Issachar Davis the present County Surveyor, entered his land in IS33, and arrived in the State from Brown county, Ohio, in September, 1834. He died March 5, 1865. A residence of thirty years in this township had earned him the respect and confi- dence of all. Shiloah Gill arrived here in IS52 and settled on land which had been entered by his father in I833.
Lines L. Parker, of this township, was elected Sheriff of Vermil- lion county in 1856, and removed to Douglas in IS6S. Mr. Parker is the largest min in the county, his weight being 336 pounds. He is, nevertheless, notable for physical vigor. He served as a commissioned officer in company "D" 25th Illinois in the war of 1861.
At the February term-1871-of Douglas Circuit Court, O. P. Greenwood was indicted for the murder of Geo. Musset, near Hugo, (Bridgeport.) He met him in the woods and shot him. Greenwood was tried in Charleston, Coles county, on a change of venue, and sen- tenced to the penitentiary for twenty-one years. He had surrendered himself to the officers and as there was some probability of self defense as well as of justification in the case, domestic difficulty being the cause of the quarrel, and extenuating circumstances generally, a peti- tion has lateiy been in circulation praying for his pardon.

HISTORY OF
The Supervisors who have represented the interests of the town- ship at the county seat are : Benjamin Bowdre, who was elected in 1868 and returned in 1869. He was succeeded by Oliver P. Hunt, in 1870, who was re-elected in 1871 and again in 1872. Marvin Y. Coykendall was the Supervisor in 1873-74-75. The present Super- visor is F. M. Reeds, who arrived in Coles county in 1848, being elected to his present position in the spring of 1876.
Issachar Davis was elected County Surveyor in November, 1863, and again in 1867, and the third time in 1875, the first two being terms of two years each. Under the Constitution of 1870 it has become a term of four years.
The population of the township per 9th Census, 1870, was 1,313. The present population is probably 1,500.

DOUGLAS COUNTY.
NEWMAN TOWNSHIP.
"Boutez en Avant."
Newman Township has an area of about 48 square miles and is nearly all prairie, though there is considerable timber in the south part along Brushy Fork. It has 30,756 acres. The north part of this township rises into a considerable elevation known as the Ridge, a view from which is more extensive than can be obtained from any other part of the county.
In June, 1871, about three years after Township organization, an effort was made to create a new township off the north end to be called "Ridge Township," and at the same time a remonstrance was filed, which prevailed.
Amongst the first inhabitants of this part of Douglas county may be mentioned Enoch Howell, who was one of the Associate Justices of Coles county before the partition of Douglas. He died in Febru- ary, 1854, leaving a large estate. The Winkler's preceded and sold their lands to the Hopkins'. James, Cornelius, William and Robert Hop- kins being amongst the best known of the earlier settlers. James Hopkins settled on his present farm, section 5, 15, 14, in October, 1841. Robert Hopkins was one of the Judges of Coles county at the time of the separation of Douglas in 1859 and was elected to fill the same office in the new county. He died in 1863 leaving a large unincum- bered estate, and his brother William is also lately deceased at an advanced age and was also a large land owner.
Jas. M. Cooley and Wm. W. Young arrived in 1853. Young d'ed in 1869. The father of Isaac Skinner came from Vermillion county, Ind., in 1839, and Isaac is, with one exception, the oldest living inhabitant of the township. Wm. Shute came in 1854.

HISTORY OF
The largest contiguous body of land in the township is owned by C. M. Culbertson, of Chicago. It contains 2,340 aeres, upon which a large amount of money has been expended in the way of improve- ment: twenty-two miles of hedges, fifteen wells, forty-nine gates. This farm contains a natural grove of about forty acres which, being very conspicuous from its elevation on the Ridge and its isolation, had been for many years, before the days of regular roads, a valuable landmark for travelers. It is well and widely known as "Culbert- son's Grove." The ancient name was "Dill's Grove." This farm has been under the charge of J. L. Connolly, of Camargo, since 1864.
About 1840 there came from Kentucky to this neighborhood one Robert Matteson, who entered the northeast quarter of the northwest quarter of section 13, 15, 9, in 1835, accompanied by his slaves, some twelve or fifteen in number. His neighbors being for the most part from the free States, entertained the idea that the slaves would be free after remaining in a free State one year. For various reasons Matte- son was not pleased with the country and proposed to return to Ken- tucky accompanied by his hands, and to that end made preparations for departure in their company. Major Samuel Ashmore, who had settled near the mouth of Brushy Fork as early as IS30, and others of the same mind had agreed that they would endeavor to prevent the return of the slaves to Kentucky. A few, however, went with their
owner. Others, by one means and another, were left behind, and some finally went to Liberia, but one of them, at least, Simeon Wil- mot, declined to return to Kentucky or to go to Liberia, but remains a . citizen of Douglas county to this day. A suit at law grew out of the matter, in which Abraham Lincoln and O. B. Ficklin were opposing counsel. Mr. Ficklin was a large land owner and former resident of this county. He now lives in Charleston, Coles county, and has a large quantity of land in this county at present. He represented Coles county in the Legislature in 1838, 1842 and was elected to Congress . in 1842, 1844 and 1850
There is a post office on the Ridge on Jas. Cooley's land near the Presbyterian Church, called Phonix.
The city of Newman is situated on section 31, 16, 14, on the line of the J., D. & S. Railway, and the original town was laid off by the same company which instituted Tuscola and at about the same time. It was named for B. Newman, one of the proprietors, who was a son- in-law of Peter Cartright, the celebrated itinerant preacher. The town was laid out in December, IS57, in Coles county, and in the
73
DOUGLAS COUNTY.
advertisements of the place the proprietors preaicted that a new county would be formed, and that the railroad would be built. The new county was formed in 1859 and the railroad came along in 1872.
The progress of the place was slow from its beginning, in await- ing the advent of the road, since which time the advance has been rapid. During the long weary waiting of fifteen years for a railroad, much of the lands adjacent to the town plat had been gradually sold off inte small tracts and subsequently converted into town lots, so that the present plat of the town, covering the greater part of the section, is made up of some sixteen different additions, and in some cases parties have made the third addition under the same name.
In the original plat a park 260 feet square is dedicated to the city provided a seminary of learning was erected on it within four years from December, 1857, and eight feet upon the borders of all streets is dedicated for sidewalks and shade trees.
The school facilities of the city consist in the main of an excellent two-story brick building with accommodations for about 300 pupils, and finished this year at a cost of about $10,000.
Two large two-story brick blocks have recently been erected, con- taining several commodious business rooms below, having upon the second floor good halls, one of which'is owned by the Masonic Society. Cash's brick store of two stories, his brick dwelling and the brick res- idence of Hancock, indicate the progress of the place in the way of permanent buildings.
The Banking House of Murphy, Hancock & Co. gives facilities to business men. It was established January, 1873. A Methodist and a Christian Church have been erected.
The "Independent," a weekly newspaper-C. Walls, editor and proprietor-now in its second volume, keeps up the record of the local news and looks after the interests of the Republican party.
Of Benevolent Societies the Masonic Lodge, Newman, No. 369, was instituted June 27, 1861. The first W. M. was Dr. W. A. Smith. I. W. Burget was Secretary and Isaac Howard, Treasurer. The pres- ent membership is 89.
Lolge No. 45), Independent Order of Old Fellows, was begun January 10, IS71, with S. G. Rose, N. G .; A. J. Homer, V. G .; Jas. Farley, Secretary; I. T. Davis, Treasurer; S. G. Rose, D. G. M .; as the first officers. The total present membership is 25.
The Indianapolis, Decatur & Springfield Railway traverses the township from east to west, passing through Newman, having been
74
HISTORY OF
built in 1872. The charter of the Decatur & Indianapolis Railroad Company was dated March 21, 1853; that of the Illinois & Indiana Central bears date of December 30, 1852. It had been a proposed road for twenty years and partly graded for a long time. This town- ship took stock in the road, by a vote of the people, to the amount of $12,000, payable in fourteen years with ten per cent. interest. The taxes paid by the road in 1875 balanced the interest.
A proposed railroad, the line of which has been surveyed and approximately located, is a nearly straight line from Homer, in Cham- paign county, to Newman, with prospective extensions both ways, and a preliminary survey was made on the line of the Mattoon & Danville road which also crosses the township.
Of the various offices in the public service of Douglas county, Mr. Robert Hopkins was one of the first County Board, having been elected in 1859. He died in the spring of 1863. Daniel O. Root was elected County Clerk in November, 1873, and is the present officer. Mr. Root came from Athens county, Ohio, in October, I854. He was assistant Marshal in the Ninth Census, 1870. J. W. King, the present Superintendent of Schools, was placed in that office at the November election, 1875, to fill an unexpired term which closes in the fall of 1877, the term being four years.
The Supervisors who have been chosen to represent the interests of the township were: B. W. Hooe, elected in 1868, as the first Supervisor, re-elected in 1869, and returned in 1871-72-73. Mr. Hooe was one of the older residents and died in January, 1875. D. Todd was elected in 1870. F. F. Barber in 1874 and again in 1875, and hav- ing resigned to remove from the county, W. R. Brown was elected to fill out the unexpired term, and was re-elected in 1876, being the present representative. Mr. Brown has the distinction of being the only county officer born within the bounds of Douglas county, (1845.) He served three years in the 79th Infantry in the war of 1861.
The population of this township, by the 9th Census, 1870, was 1,077, being at that time next to the smallest, but as the city of New- man has rapidly increased since that time the township now ranks third or fourth in the county in the number of inhabitants. The pop- ulation in the city of Newman was over 1,000 in 1876.

SARGENT TOWNSHIP.
"Macte Virtute."
Sargent Township consists of fifty-two sections of land in the southeast part of the county and has an area of about 461/2 square miles, several of the so-called sections being quite small, and was once a part of Oakland Precinct in Coles county. It contains 29,813 acres, and received its name in honor of Snowdon Sargent, Esq., who was one of its earliest and most influential citizens. He made his first visit to the State in 1830, entered 400 acres of land at Palestine, and in the first years of his residence passed through with his family, all the trials and privations incident to pioneer life. He eventually became one of the largest land owners in the county, and died in 1875. Eli Sargent entered a large body of land here in 1830. Other well known original settlers were Andrew Gwin, the Reddings, Samuel Allison, Casebeer, B. F. Coykendall, I. W. Burget, Wm. Hancock, and Wm. F. Murphy. Mr. Gwin visited the Richman's the first set- tlers, in 1830. He has the largest farm in the county, 3,100 acres. Josephus Redding was born in Edgar county in 1829 and came to this township when two years of age. Samuel Allison arrived in 1833. Wm. Hancock was the first Assessor and Treasurer of the county, a member of the State Board of Equalization in 1867, and, living in Newman, is a member of the banking firm of Murphy, Han- cock & Co. Mr. Coykendall came to Coles, now Douglas, county in 1847. I. W. Burget arrived in 1839. Since Township organization in 1868 he has served six consecutive terms as Supervisor of this town- iship, in which he has a large and well improved farm. Wm. F. Murphy bought his first land here in 1850, and now has a large farm
76
HISTORY OF
upon which valuable improvements have been made. He is the pres- ent Supervisor of the township and a member of the banking firm of Murphy, Hancock & Co., Newman.
The township of Sargent is about one-half timber, being trav- ersed by the Embarras river, which receives Brushy Fork, a branch, in section 28, 15, 10. Deer Creek, a considerable drain, empties into the Embarras in this township.
Brushy Fork timber was a favorite place of resort for the early settlers and was the scene of some of the earliest improvements in the county.
There is no trading point of any importance in the township, the business being divided between the neighboring towns of Newman and Oakland, in Coles county, the local pet name of which is "Pin Hook." The only post office is Brushy Fork, in section 22, 15, 10, commonly called "Nipantuck." Columbus, a town, was laid out in February, 1841, on section 35, 15, 10, now unknown. The Illinois Midland Railway crosses about two miles of the township in the southwest corner, passing through Ouklinl in Coles county, which, being near, is equivalent to railroad facilities, and routes for several proposed roads which cross a portion of its area have been surveyed.
Sargent Township enjoys the distinction of being the only town- ship in the county which has no voted railroad debt as a township. In population it is the smallest in the county. The number of inhab- itants per Ninth Census, 1870, was 1,035.
Acres in the township cultivated. 28,156
Acres in the township not cultivated 1,657
Total acres 29,813
The following citizens have been charged with the care of the county public business : Wm. Hancock was the first Assessor and Treasurer of Douglas county, having been elected in 1859. Jas. H. Shawhan was elected to the office of Sheriff, in 1871, to fill the unex- pired term of Cooper, who had left the country. Of Supervisors, I. W. Burget was the first, having been elected in 1868, re-elected in 1869-70-71-72-73. He was succeeded by S. M. Long in 1874, who was again returned in 1875. The present Supervisor is Wm F. Murphy, who was elected in 1876.

AMERICA.
My Country, 'tis of thee Sweet land of liberty, Of thee I sing. Land where my father's died, Land of the pilgrim's pride, From every mountain side Let freedom ring.
My native country thee- Land of the noble free- Thy name I love ; I love thy rocks and rills, Thy woods and templed hills; My heart with rapture thrills Like that above.
Let music swell the breeze, And ring from all the trees, Sweet freedom's song. Let mortal tongues awake, Let all that breathe partake, Let rocks their silence break- The sound prolong.
Our Father's God, to thee, Author of liberty, To the we sing. Long may our land be bright, With freedom's holy light. Protect us by thy might Great God our King!
TRAMP, TRAMP, TRAMP. In the prison eell I sit, Thinking, mother dear, of you And our bright and happy home so far away ! And the tears they fill my eyes, Spite of all that I can do, Though I try to cheer my comrades and be gay.
CHORUS-Tramp, tramp, tramp! the boys are marching; Cheer up! comrades, thay will come, And beneath the starry flag, We shall breathe the air again Of the Freeland in our own beloved home.
In the battle front we stood,
When the fiercest charge was made, And they swept us off, a hundred men or more;
But before they reached our lines, They were driven back dismayed, And we heard the cry of vict'ry o'er and o'er.
CHORUS-Tramp, tramp, tramp, etc.
So within the prison walls, We are waiting for the day That shall come to open wide the iron door; And the hollow eves grow bright, And the poor heart almost gay, As we think of seeing home and friends onec more. CHORUS-Tramp, tramp, tramp, etc.
RED, WIIITE AND BLUE. O Columbia the gem of the ocean The home of the brave and the free, The shrine of each patriot's devotion, The world offers homage to thee. Thy mandates make heroes assemble, When Liberty's form stands in view, Thy banners make tyranny tremble, When borne by the red, white and blue
When war winged its wide desolation, And threatened the land to deform. The ark, then, of freedom's foundation Columbia,rode safe through the storm With her garlands of victory around her, When so proudly she bore her brave crew,
With her flag proudly floating before her The boast of the red, white and blue.
The wine cup, the wine cup bring hither, And fill you it true to the brim ; May the wreaths they have won never wither,
Nor the star of their glory grow dim; May the service united ne'er sever, But they to their colors prove true ; The Army and Navy forever -- Three cheers for the red, white and blue.

HISTORY OF
STAR SPANGLED BANNER.
Oh say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twi- light's last gleaming,
Whose hroad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming ; And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof, thro' the night, that our flag wes still there! O say does the star spangled ban- ner vet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
On the shore dimly seen thro' the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses ;
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam : In full glory reflected now shines in the stream-
"Tis the star spangled banner! O long may it wave
Q'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
And where is the band, who so vaunt- ingly swore
That the havoc of war, and the na- tion's confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more-
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution !
No refuge can cave the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave!
And the star spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
O! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation !
Blessed with victory and peace, may the Heaven-rescued land
Praise the power that has made and preserved us a nation ! Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust ! "
And the star spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
IIAIL COLUMBIA.
Hail, Columbia, happy land! Hail, ye heroes! neaven-born band; Who fought and bled in freedom's cause, Who fought and bled in freedom's cause, And when the storm of war had gone, Enjoyed the peace your valor won ; Let independence be your boast ; Ever mindful what it cost, Ever grateful for the prize, Let its altar reach the skies, Firm, united let us be Rallying round our liberty, As a band of brothers joined, Peace and safety we shall find.
Heroes, patriots, rise once more, Guard your rights, defend your shores ; Let no rude foe with impious hand, Let no rude foe with impious hand, Invade the shrine where sacred lies Of toil and blood the well earned prize ; While offering peace sincere and just, Place in heaven your manly trust, Truth and justice shall prevail, And all schemes of bondage fail. Firm, united let us be, etc.
Sound again the trump of fame, Then let Washington's great name Ring through the world with loud ap- plause ;
Ring through the world with loud ad- plause ;
Let every clime to freedom dear,
All listen with a joyful ear; With equal skill, with steady power, He rules in the fearful hour ; Guides in horrid war with ease, And in time of honest peace. Firm, united let us be, etc.
