A very satisfactory meeting was held on the second Saturday of August (8th), 1868, on the Milroy farm. The principal speaker of the occasion was George Bowman, Esq., who, in the forty minutes occupied by him, reviewed with considerable mi- nuteness the details of the educational system of the past, com- paring it with the more modern and exhibiting in his practical way the advantages possessed by that generation over the preced- ing ones in the opportunities presented for intellectual and moral culture. The address was replete with valuable suggestions and was every way worthy of the man and the occasion. "His re marks on the benefit of a correct education were excellent, and, if carried out, would instill into the minds of children loftier and better ideas than they are in the habit of possessing themselves with in the fast age in which we live."
Impromptu speeches were also made by Gen. R. H. Milroy, Henry C. Dibble, Rev. Mr. Beckner, Isaac Jackson, Maj. John B. Milroy, Austin Williamson and others, in which they dwelt upon the occurrences of the past, in individual experiences and anec- dotes, reminders that we live now in a different age, with customs and characteristics so much at variance with those of the past as scarcely to be recognized as realities.
At the annual meeting of the society held on the 14th of Au- gust, 1869, Hon. Henry C. Dibble, a native of Carroll County, but subsequently a resident of New Orleans, was the chosen orator, and lie acquitted himself most creditably. For a full hour or more he held his vast audience enchained, as it were, while he traced with vivid pencilings the movements of the Star of Empire from the extreme East to the boundless West, in the rise and fall of the governments of the Old World, presenting with great force his ideal of a perfect government in which the

intelligence of the masses constitutes the great bulwark of free- dom-distinguishing features of our own National Government --- asserting that, with the experiences of the past before us, there was no good reason why we, the people of the United States, should not avoid the breakers upon which other ships of State have been wrecked, and make our own Union perpetual.
Besides Judge Dibble, other speakers from time to time occu- pied the attention of the interested hearers -- among them Hou. C. B. Lasselle, of Logansport, and Hon. Godlove S. Orth, of La Fay- ette. Altogether, the re-union was a grand success, many visitors coming from Cass, White, Tippecanoe and other adjoining couu- ties. A similar meeting in many respects was held on the 12th of August, 1871, at Milroy's Grove. On that occasion the society was addressed by Sanford Cox, of La Fayette, one of the vory old settlers of Tippecanoe County and quite familiar with the early settlements in this. His address was well received and left an impression that suggested the possibility of another call upon the author's fund of information. At this meeting preliminary steps were taken toward securing a permanent place of meeting in the future. Subsequently, arrangements were made by which the use of Lenou's Grove was secured as a meeting-place, and since that time the re-unions of old settlers have been held there annually, the grounds having been prepared with especial refer- ence to the comfort and convenience of the immense throng that regularly congregatos tlicre on the second Saturday in August of each year to renew their vows of friendship and live over again the scenes of pioneer life.
On the second Saturday in August, 1873, true to the custom instituted in the past, another re-union was held on those grounds. Of this meeting, the Delphi Journal of August 13, 1873, thay speaks: "Saturday, the 9th inst., was the timo appointed for the old settlers' meeting in Carroll County. Such a meeting as a festal occasion would strike a stranger as nothing more than a re-union of a few old people to enjoy a good dinner and ravive the memories of the privations, struggles and joys of pioneer life. One would naturally suppose that such a meeting would be less year by year, until the last of the old settlers had slept with the dead. But the last meeting gave assurance that the old settlers' meeting has becoine, and will continue to be, the greatest and most enjoyable festival of the people of this conuty. Very early in the morning the streets of our beautiful city wero thronged with the carriages and vehicles of every description of those who had come to attend this feast. At 10 o'clock the assemblage had met in a beautiful grove about one mile from the city. It is estimatod that during the day there were not less than 10,000 persons present.
" The exercises of the meeting were of the most interesting character. The Delphi and Camden bands announced the com- mencement of the occasional exercises, and the President, Abner Robinson, then called the meeting to order. * * * Prayer was offered by Rov. Prof. G. W. Rice. The address by the Rev. Aaron Wood, D. D., could but have delighted aud instructed all who heard it. Before the settlement of Carroll County the speaker had been conversant with the different settlements of the whole State of Indiana. He spoke of what he had seen as well as of what he had heard. In his exhibition of pioneer life, to use his own words, he spoke of a happy people, in happy times and in a most happy frame of mind. *
* * It was heard with attention and satisfaction.
"A most touching and enjoyable feature of the entertainment was the singing by the old settlers' choir, which was composed of
the following talent: Anstin J. Williamson, leader, and family, Scott Hardy, Chris Hardy, and .----- Pettit, of White County; John Lenon, Robert Holt and lady, Thomas Stirlen, David Baum, Clark Gwinu, Rev. A. Wood, D. D., and Mrs. Lake. They sang such good old times as Lonox, Boylston, Ocean, etc., in a manner that carried us back to the good old days of buckwheat notes, long before the days when fashionable choirs tickled the ears of fashionable audiences. They carried the mind back to the relig- ions meeting in the log schoolhouse, and the first humble struct- ures for religious worship. More than this, they carried the minds of some to the high galleries in the meeting-houses among the New England hills. If there had boon just the faintest per- furne of fennel or caraway seed, the illusion would have been complete. The dinner was a large private picnic under the shades of trees by families, or as gatherings of friends iu groups of three or a dozen or more, and all partook of a bonutiful repast. There was the utmost freedom and enjoyment. but perfect order. It seemed like a revival of the Feast of Tabernacles of the ancient Church of God."
The next annual meeting was held on the second Saturday in Angust, 1874, with the usual interesting ceremonies. The same is true of the meeting held in 1875, on the 14th of August, a special feature of which was the address of Judge Baldwin, of Logans- port, entitled, " A. Cure for Hard Times " -- a few brief extracts from which will not be out of place. "The cure for hard times is to double our industry and quadruple our economy. Beware of politicians. They live upon the discontent of a country. Nothing suits them so well as hard times, for they can turn that fact to their advantage and get into fat places by promises of a change that they will never make. They caunot make a cure if they would, because they have no power over natural laws. All the legislation in the world won't give us any relief unless we re- lievo ourselves. The snap must be in the horse and not in the whip. Legislature has no power to make water run up hill. If the peo- plo have backbone in them the best thing the Government can do is to let thein severely alone. My doctrine is, that Government is best that governs least. I had rather have people that lived up to the maxims of Poor Richard's almanac -- a people where every man is his own statesman-than an army of learned polit- ical economists.
"Finally, I warn you against, getting into debt. If in debt, I counsel you to improve upon the Scripture rule -- ' Agree with thine adversary double quickly.' The borrower is the slave of the lender. There is no enemy so dreadful as interest. Man can only work a third of the timo. Machinery wears itself ont. But interest grows night and day, and perpetually renews its youth. It thrives by what it feeds upon. It is like water dropping upon a rock. Nothing can resist its remorseless tooth. * *
* Friends, these are no doubt very disappointing words. I could readily mystify you with an array of figures and conceal my own ignorance in a cloud of learned words and fine talk about balances of trade, measures of value and laws of currency. When through, we would be just where we started. No man ever paid his debts, no people ever got rich by talking about it. Talk is the life of politics and the death of industry. The cure for hard times is hard work."
On the same occasion, a very excellent address was delivered by Hon. Samuel C. Willson, of Crawfordsville, one of the pioneer lawyers of the Wabash Valley, and a man of great practical in- formation. Addressing the younger portion of his audience es- pecially, be said: "The younger portion of this audience can

hardly realize the toils, the dangers and privations of the early settlers. They know nothing of frontier wilderness life. My young professional brethren would look upon the practice as a hard way of making a living if, to attend to a case at La Fayette, they had to swim their horses through two bayous, between the Wabash and La Fayette, as well as the swift and swollen Tippe- canoe, as I have had to do since I came into the district, only my travel was from La Fayette here, instead of from here to La Fay- ette, and I have sat in my saddle the livelong day to make the trip. " Swimming streams and miring down were common occur- rences to the practitioner in early times. Ours was, however, mere boy play, compared to what our early settlers had to endure. If you had to live for weeks, aye, months, upon cracked corn or hominy, and pound it yourself, you would think it hard times. I don't believe there is one in a hundred of you that ever saw a mortar for making meal and hominy."
The twenty-second annual meeting of the society was held at Lenon's Grove, on Saturday, the 12th: of August, 1876. .. "For several days previous, the continued rains caused many to think that the attendance would be quite slim; notwithstanding there was a very good attendance." . The late Senator, Hon,, D. D. Pratt, of Logansport, was the chosen orator of the occasion. An abstract of his remarks will be found in the following item from. the Logansport Journal: "Mr. Pratt. occupied something, more than an hour in his remarks, which, while they were replete with facts and abounded with numerous illustrations, were presented. with characteristic force and begat an interest not always ex- hibited on similar occasions." He compared the surroundings, the appliances' of pioneer life, the usages of society and facilities for travel, to be met with fifty years ago, with what are to be met with to-day? Passing along from point to point, introducing facts patent to the careful observer, he availed himself of these to exhibit the elements of that success, with which their progress from those primeval days to the present had been marked.".
On the 21st day of August, 1880, the. twenty-sixth annual meeting was held, as usual, in Lenon's Grove, attended by an un; tisual outpouring of the people, evidencing. the increased interest, manifested by the people in these re-union gatherings. . Abner.
Robinson, the venerable President of the association of old set- tlers, having died on the 5th of February, 1879, the place became vacant, and Vine Holt, Esq., was chosen to fill his place. Mr. Holt presided at the meeting last mentioned and called the as- sembly to order. The speaker at this meeting was. Hon. J. C. Suit, of Frankfort, who delivered an eloquent address in which he reviewed the wondrous development of this county, State and Nation, since the evening when Henry Robinson and his sons built their first camp-fire in the primitive forest that then covered the vast area now teeming with the evidences of civilization. He. reviewed the toils, the dangers, the trials and privations incident to pioneer life, and then, in a most impressive and eloquent man- ner, contrasted the past with the present.
Preliminary, however, to the commencement of the business. of the day, the annual election for officers was held, resulting in the choice of James Odell, President, and Enoch Cox, Secretary. At this meeting, about fifty additional names were enrolled by the Secretary. "The day in all its features, ceremonies and en- tertainments, was a matchless. success. : Everything on the bills went off as announced and everybody was happy. Competent. judges place the crowd at 8,000:" .. ..
On the 14th of August, 1881, the last annual re-union was held, but, owing to the continued rains of several days preceding,
the gathering was less large and conspicuous than on former oc- casions; yet, notwithstanding the gloomy foreboding of the early morning, there were not less than four or five thousand in attend- ance and excellent feeling was manifested. At the election held among the first proceedings of the day, John B. Milroy was chosen President and Enoch Cox was continued as Secretary of the society. No stated address was delivered, but numerous brief impromptu speeches were made, with exercises in the buckwheat note system by the remnant of the old settlers' choir, completed the day's entertainment.
At one of these meetings, among the many incidents related appertaining to the pioneer age in Carroll County, John Baum related the following, which will illustrate some of the incon- yeniences to which the settlers in the early days of the county were frequently subjected. . "He said that their blacksmithing of necessity had to be done many miles distant in older counties below, being the most easy of access. In earlier times, that is to say, in 1826 or 1827, they nearly all went to Crawfordsville to get their work done --- a long distance, to be sure, but the necessity existed nevertheless, and they had to go there or do worse.
" At the time, however, of which Mr. Baum speaks, in the spring or summer of 1827, there was a blacksmith located somewhere near the present site of Covington, in Fountain County, to whom the settlers here went whenever it was necessary to have such work done. On the occasion in point, his father, Daniel Baum, Sr., had some horseshoeing to be done, and he, desiring the op- portunity to visit that neighborhood for a definite purpose, best known to a young man looking for a wife, proposed going to the Fountain County shop to have the work done, and accordingly went. While there, prospecting generally, he ascertained that a wheelwright, or a person who could repair small spinning-wheels, lived in the neighborhood. This information afforded him pecu- liar gratification, for he wished to repeat his visits down there, and it occurred to him just then that his mother and some other of the neighbor women up here had some broken 'flyers' belong- ing to their little-wheels' for spinning flax, which he was sure they wanted to get mended, because the flax season would soon .epme, on. It can well be imagined by any person acquainted with backwoods life fifty years ago, that the economical housewife of those days could scarcely conceive of a more unpropitious mis- hap than breaking or having broken the flyer of her little wheel -for it always involved much deliberation and a tedious journey to get a new one, or have the old one mended-and the opportu- nity of getting those repairs done with so little trouble would be hailed with delight. He was fully aware of this and calculated accordingly. When he came home from getting his horse shod, he related to his mother, as.a dutiful son always should, the im- .portant discovery he had made. The information to her was well · timed, and soon she acquainted some of the neighbor women of the fact, so that by the time he wished again to visit Fountain County, opportunities were numerous for him to go without fur- ther excuse, that they might get ; their flyers meuded in season. He went, of course, and profited by the information he had ob- tained somewhat clandestinely. He frequently refers to it as an incident of his early courtship in the backwoods country. This incident, with many others, might be adduced in illustration of the hardships, trials, difficulties and inconveniences, those settlers were subjected to during the years of toil that succeeded the first settlement of Carroll County, which, though it was no worse, nor perhaps as bad as many other new settlements, was full of . examples showing that its pioneers were not behind others in

meeting amt surmounting adversifies in whatever shape they pro- sented themselves." Mr. Baum's experience in this instance. illustrated some of the brighter features of pioneer life.
