Throckmorton, John; west of Franklin. This man refused to give our agent any information concerning himself; so our patrons will have to be content with knowing that there is such a man, and that he lives somewhere west of Franklin. We only occasionally come in contact with such men, and, as it seems strange to most reasonable men, that any one should refuse to have his name, date of birth, settlement, etc., placed before his neighbors, we can give only a few reasons why any one should do so. A man in Crawfords- ville, doing a large business in the sale of agricultural in- plements, utterly refused to give us his name, or any other knowledge concerning himself, because, as he said, "we would make money out of it." The science of physics nomy taught us that the real reasons for his refusing were hid within his breast years ago. Some refuse from positive ignorance; some because of egotistical selfishness; and others from a morbid and spiteful hatred they have for all public enterprises.

HENSLEY TOWNSHP.
HENSLEY TOWNSHIP is located in the southwest corner of the county, and contains thirty six square miles. It lays in a body, six miles square. The surface of the township is somewhat broken. The bottoms, along the creeks, are made of sand and soil, composing a pliable loam unsurpassed for the production of corn. The uplands are not so rich, yet they produce good crops of wheat, oats, fruits, vegetables, and average yields of corn.
The most valuable production of these high lands is blue grass; the dryness of the soil gives to it a richness not obtained from the grasses produced in the low lands.
Hensley township is watered in the southern part by a small stream called Indian Creek; this creek affords stock water for many good farms, and is of much consequence in that respect. Other parts of the township are watered by small branches, running in various directions.
The public property is of a substantial character, and well cared for. The improvements in the township are generally of the first-class ; farmers and tradesmen seem to be thriving in their several occupations. Great interest is taken in the moral and educational affairs of the township ; school houses and churches are seen on every hand, and go to establish the fact that these people are looking forward to a time when every man will be rewarded according to that which he has done.
Hensley township is triversed by the C. & M. R. P . thereby affording to the inhabitants means for the transportation of their
317

produce. The township has two villages within her borders, Trafalgar and Samaria. The former is the principal place of business, and is located on the C. & M. R. R., near the north- cast corner of the township. Trafalgar has a population of about 300; the people are industrious, benevolent and affable.
Our agent desires that we mention the name of R. Cook, a hotel keeper in Trafalgar, who, according to our agent's report, is a genial and accommodating gentleman, always endeavoring to make his customers feel at home, and supplying his table with the best of refreshments. We suppose there can be no doubt as to the gentlemanly qualifications of Mr. Cook, but we suspect that our agent, J. L. Crooks, was smartly sharpened by the good things on the table.
The village of Samaria is situated on the C. & M. R. R., near the center of the township, and has a population of about one hundred. Its citizens are enterprising and courteous towards strangers. They also take much pride in the advancement of the interests of the community at large; in fact, we may say that the citizens of Hensley township are a live, industrious, go-ahead, benevolent, and social people generally.
This township has ten school houses, valued at $6, 000. Voting population, 375; Democratic, 300; Republican, 75. G. W. Musselman is the present Township Trustee.
We are requested to mention the existence in this township of an organization called the Hensley Township Horse Thief Detective Association. The object of this association is to de- tect and bring to justice thieves of every character. Their call- ing is surely legitimate, and needs to be imitated in other parts of the country, until prowling thieves could find no safe retreat in the land. We understand that considerable stolen property bas, at various times, been recovered and returned by the mem- lars of this association to its proper owners. "The way of the Hansgressor is hard." "The wages of sin is death."

The following are the names of some of the early settlers of Hensley township, still living: Andrew Underwood, H. S. Lyster, Sanmel Kephart, A. Davenport, Thomas Spicer, R. Slack, S. Sturgeon, William Evans, Benjamin Byers, Richard Furgason, J. M. Green, John Slack, James T. White, G. W Musselman, Jesse Moore, and others.
Richardson Hensley was the first white man who settled in Hensley township. From him the township took its name. He settled on Indian Creek. The first election in the township was held at his house. Mr. Hensley died at the good old age of ninety years. The old pioneer sleeps in the valley of death, but his name still lives with the people of Hensley township.
