To pass over the press of Fredricksburg would be an unpardonable omission. The Veres was established by Allen Smith, the first number being a five column folio in size, and appearing March 13, 1879. A fair subscription list at $1 per annum was secured. Mr. Smith continued its publication until September 9. 1580, when the first issue appeared under the ownership of McPheeters & Goss, with Calvin Goss as editor. Mr. Goss became sole owner. September 29, 1881, and remained in charge until January 11, 1583, when Charles E. Bullington bought a half inter-

est, and April 12, of the same year, purchased the other half. Mr. Bul- lington moving to Hardinsburg in 1883, and establishing the Enterprise, Charles E. Allen resurrected the News, October 26, 1883, but changed the size from a five-column quarto to a four-column quarto. December 21 of the same year it was enlarged to a six-column quarto, and January 1, 1884, it was sold to W. A. Kimberlin, under whose management the News is fast winning its way into public approval.

LITTLE YORK.

This village, so called because the families who entered the land where the town is located were from New York, was laid off by George Davis on part of the northwest quarter of Section 18, in what is now Gibson Township, August 3, 1831, and originally comprised thirteen lots. Eleven lots were added by Alanson Langdon June 19, 1849, five more by Hezekiah Thomas May 25, 1852, twenty-one more by Joseph ML Scifers February 6, 1874, and December 12, 1859, Hezekiah Thomas made the last addition of thirty-four lots. In about the year 1922 Philip Langdon established a horse-mill where the town now is, and it was patronized for years by the early settlers from far and near. The first house was built by Michael Richards in about 1818, on the place where James Haskins now lives, and in 1819 Philip Langdon. Jr., Philip Langdon, Sr., Joshua Powers, Lanson Langdon and A. Cooley came from New York and entered the greater part of the land upon which the town now stands. George Davis, the founder of the town, located there in about 1821. The first store was opened by Asa Glover in 1832. his entire stock probably being worth $65. Another by Hezekiah Thomas shortly afterward was situated on the lot now owned by James Garriott. Among subsequent merchants were: Robbins, David Mitchell, - Hub- bard, - Miranda, William Wilson, Henry Childs, George R. Davis, Darling Jones, A. Cooley, C. Sickles, Jonas H. Johnson, E. M. Grimes, David Griffith, T. J. Lester, George Parker, et al. The present busi- ness interests of the place are represented by Simeon Garriott and James Garriott, general merchants; Oliver Mccullough, groceries and provis- ions; Catharine Miranda, confectionery; L. H. Hudson and G. F. Lewelling, physicians; and W. R. England, tavern-keeper, besides a wagon and blacksmith shop or two.

The first tavern was opened by Darling Jones in 1536, and being on a direct line of travel from Louisville and New Albany to Indianapolis, received quite a liberal patronage. In 1959 Hezekiah Thomas built the large mill now standing, and operated until 1965 when it was sold to J. R. Motsinger. Morris & Riley were the next owners, and by them sold to Richard Clark, the present proprietor, in November, 1969. This is one of the best mills in the county, has two run of stone, and is oper- ated by steam power. Mr. Clark also owns the steam saw-mill built by

D. J. Meadors in 1876, having purchased it in 1877. He is the leading man of Little York, and embodies the principal part of the intelligence and enterprise of the place. The Odd Fellows and Masons both have organizations at this place; the former being organized June 13, 1865, and named and numbered York Lodge, No. 241. They first inet in Mr. Clark's mill until their hall was fitted up, and the charter members were Richard Clark, Joseph Draper, James B. Guffey, Henry Streaker, George L. Neal and W. M. Clark. As time passed the lodge increased in strength and members. A Rebekah Lodge was organized August 10, 1870. An Encampment was also organized, but as data coukl not be found con- cerning this the records will have to be omitted. York Lodge, No. 512, F. & A. M. was organized in 1875 in their hall, and within three months received their charter from the Grand Lodge. The charter members were D. J. Griffith, Richard Clark, G. M. Scifers, John B. Wood, J. B. Lester, E. R. Williams, Thomas Jones, T. H. Hudson, H. T. Hobson, W. C. Thomas, J. R. Motsinger, William Hazzard, A. Morris, B. R. Still and Nathan Goble. The lodge is in a flourishing condition, owning their own;hall and having a membership of nineteen.

SALTILLOVILLE.

In September, 1840, Madison Bowles, proprietor, and John I. Mor- rison, surveyor, laid out and platted the town of Saltillo, naming it after a battle of the Mexican war of that name, but which has been changed to Saltilloville in order to secure a postoffice. It comprises a total of 137 lots -- one being reserved for public school and one for church pur- poses-and is situated on the line between Sections 27 and 28. Madison Bowles was perhaps the first merchant, and subsequent ones were William Knox. George A. Rosenbaum, William Galaban, John Rosenbaum and others. Col. S. D. Sayles was the first blacksmith and also worked at edge. tool-making considerably. About the time of the building of the railroad an old fashioned "up and down" saw was built by Wright Stacy, but during the war was moved away. Harvey and Hiram Matthew built a grist-mill in about 1856 which burned to the ground twenty years later. In 1876 they began the erection of their present mill, which is 30x40 feet, two and a half story building with basement, and has one wheat and one corn buhr. Attached to the building is an 18x50 foot saw. mill room in which is a double circular saw, and both mills are ope- rated by the same engine. Two general stores by E. Braman & Sons and C. Cook; a drug store by J. W. Hogsett; millinery by Padgett & Elliott: undertaking by John Velloms; carpentering and wagon-making by Thomas Padgett and E. Neymon; Hiram Neymon and J. W. Hogsett, physicians, comprises the present business interests of the place. George A. Rosenbaum was commissioned the first Postmaster in 1853, the present one being MIrs. Olive Nunamaker.

was organized in June, 1884. with seventeen members, and the following were the first and present officers: Thomas Weir, P. C .; J. W. Hogsett. J. V. C .; E. N. Conner. S. V. C .; Henry Smith, Adjutant ; Dr. H. P. Neymon. Surgeon; T. Weir. O. G., and W. Hayes, O. D. The post meets once every month in Padgett's Hall.

PEKIN.

This village was laid out in what is now Polk Township, on the Mut- ton Fork of Blue River. and in Section 30, November 15, 1831. by Christian Bixler, and originally comprised 167 lots. It was not surveyed until in October, 1837. by John I. Morrison. Among the first merchants were Gabriel Peavler, James F. Persise-who also kept the first tavern -D. W. Bierly, Mr. Tuttle and George M. Johnson. In an early day large quantities of liquor were sold at one time, there being two saloons. A mau by the name of Smith was probably the first to engage in the traffic in the place. When the old New Albany & Salem Railroad was built, a station was made across the river from the old town. and just across the line in Pierce Township. In consequence of this the old town went down, and but a few dilapidated buildings now mark the place. Half way between the two places, the present steam saw and gri-t-maill was built in about 1800 by a Mr. Butterfield. It is a first-class mill in every respect, and from the original owner it passed respectively into the hands of Bowman & Uppinghouse, James Burns and Andy Canble, who is the present owner. By an act of the County Commissioners the old town was declared vacant in about 1854. C. D. Green built a fine brick building at the station in 1852 or thereabouts, and besides using it as a depot and postoffice, opened an extensive store and did the largest busi- ness ever transacted in the whole country. Peter Martin became the suc. cessor of Mr. Green in the ownership of the stock of goods, and the Messrs. Collins in the ownership of the building. In about 1867 ibe building took fire and was burned to the ground, scarcely a single article being saved. Another new frame building was erected and is now occu- pied by Bierly & Elrod. The first Postmaster of the old town was George Waltz, probably: the present one at the station being William Graves. There has just been opened on the land adjoining the station a fair ground, and whether it proves to amount to anything will be developed in the future.

NEW PHILADELPHIA.

This town was first laid out as Philadelphia November 30, 1837, John I. Morrisou surveying and platting forty-eight lots. It is located just above the center of Section 9. Town 2. Range 5 east, and the three streets running east and west and beginning at the north are High, Broad. way and Madison: the ones extending north and south, beginning at the west, are named Main.

HISTORY OF WASHINGTON COUNTY.

Streets. William Hamilton was proprietor, and to his original plat were added nine lots by Richard Lockwood in May, 1839. The village has two general stores, owned by B. F. Howell and H. H. Mcclellan; an able physician, in the person of Dr. John H. Oatley; two blacksmith- shops, by Thomas Weir and John Trimble; a harness-shop, by T. A. Morgan, and a shingle factory by John W. Payne. An Odd Fellows' Lodge was organized, but has since been moved to South Boston. (See sketch.)

B. F. Huston opened the first store, and he was succeeded by Will- iam Thompson, Benjamin Lockwood and others. The first blacksmiths in proper order were: -- Pitt, Charles Herron, Milton Humphrey, etc. The first physicians were Andrew Todd and J. R. Bare. A Mr. Alstadt was a wheel-maker, and conducted that trade for a time. Thomas Men- augh had a hat manufactory quite early. Last of all was a saloon, which was opened shortly after the town started, by a man called Sisson. One auspicious night the doors of his shop were banged down, the heads of kegs and barrels were bursted, and the liquor therein poured into the street by certain citizens of the town. Although a rank violation of the law, yet this procedure had the necessary effect of causing Sisson to leave the place, and since then no saloon has ever been opened in New Philadelphia.

SOUTH BOSTON.

This village is composed of abont ten families, and located on the Middle Fork of Blue River, between Sections 28 and 29. was never laid out and surveyed, but for years has been a little bamlet where Bravillian Rood over fifty years ago opened a little dry goods, grocery and liquor store. Subsequent merchants were: Samuel McClanahan, Henry M. Wilson, William Farabee, Robert Cooper, Samuel E. Nelson and others, and the present one is owned by Jacob D. Payne. At present Vulcan has two followers in the persons of W. C. Mcclellan and N. E. Rodman, and Dr. A. N. Spurgeon is the efficient and only physician. The princi- pal feature of the place is a small but excellent lodge of Odd Fellows, which was first organized at New Philadelphia as Philadelphia Lodge, No. 312, May 20, 1858, on the application of J. C. Simonson, John A. Forsyth, B. F. Robinson, W. N. Durbin, Stanford Newby and W. W. Thomas. Mr. Simonson was the first Noble Grand; W. N. Durbin, Vice Grand; Stanford Newby, Recording Secretary; B. F. Robinson, Treas- urer. The lodge flourished for years, accomplishing much good, but by a decrease in the membership, and a desire of the majority of members living near South Boston, the lodge was moved to the latter place early in 1554. Before the erection of their present excellent two-story frame building the order met for a time in the house of George Williams. Their present building is 20x54 feet in size; they meet on every Satur- day evening, and have a present membership of thirty six. officered as fol-

MOUNT CARMEL.

Mount Carmel, comprising twenty-six lots, located in Section 12. Town 3. Range 2 east, was laid off by John and William Brown, Decem- ber 20, 1837, but instead of fulfilling the wishes of the proprietors by becoming a city, is not much, if any, larger than when it was begun. The first merchants were: Mathew Driskell, Isaac Brewer, Prow & Rob- inson, William Holland & Co., Elijah Driskell, et al. Each of the above firms carried a general stock of goods. John and William Coe were the first blacksmiths, and subsequent ones were Henry Liston and Thomas Dawson, the latter yet doing business there.

HARRISTOWN.

This was named in honor of Thomas M. Harris, is situated on Section 24. Town 2 north, of Range 4 east, and on the Louisville. New Albany & Chicago Railroad, was founded by Thomas M. Harris July 18. 1850, when seventeen lots, ranging in size from . 12 to 2.84 acres, were laid off. The first store was built and carried on by John H. Trueblood. and the first dwelling by Harvey Rodman. Other merchants who have been engaged in merchandising are Robert Robinson and Mr. Garriott

HITCHCOCK.

This is only a station on the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago Rail- road in Washington Township, was named after a family of that name, and William Hitchcock had the first store. Warren Trueblood, P D. Diefendorf and David Dennis have been subsequent merchants, the latter yet being in business here. also occupying the position of Postmaster. station and express agent.

CLAYSVILLE.

This was first known as Middletown, but changed by an act of the State Legislature in March, 1839, in order that a postoffice might be established; was laid off by Julius Turner, October 24, 1828. It has never had any additions, but comprises fifty-seven lots on Sections 9 and 10 in Vernon Township. Simeon Porter opened the first store in 1827, succeeded by Lyman Gould three years later. In 1835 Aaron Walker established a grocery, but sold out to Madison Bowles. The only store of particular importance was that of William Lemon, who kept a large stock of goods and had quite an extended trade. Being an open advo- cate of the Union during the late war, his store was burned to the ground, supposed to have been the work of certain members of the Knights of the Golden Circle. Dr. R. B. Child for years has been the only physi- cian of the place.

D URING the war of 1812-15 the militia organization in Washington County was efficient, but with the exception of a few excursions in pursuit of Indian horse-thieves, and frequent musters to become pro- ficient, and to be in readiness for any outbreak that might occur, and to engender a feeling of public security, saw no active service. At the time of the organization of the county in 1814, John DePauw was Colonel of the Ninth Militia Regiment, and Thomas Denny, Samuel Huston, George French, Absalom Sargent, John Beck, Henry Dewalt, Charles Busey and John Koyse were Captains of the companies composing the regiment, and all members were residents of this county. These men and others had previously been officers in this Territory while it was yet a part of Harrison and Clarke Counties. Later, in 1814, Clifton Glazebrook, Jesse Roberts, William Kennedy, Jesse Durham and John Maxwell were Captains. Jesse Roberts was promoted to the Majority of the regiment. Nearly all the leading citizens of the county were from that time forward, at some date, officers of the county companies, and every citizen of the county not conscientiously opposed to bearing arms was in time a mem- ber of the local " corn-stalk militia." With the departure of all fear of danger from any hostile foe, the militia sank to the lowest ebb of ineffi-

ciency, but seemed to be at the flood of popularity, as large crowds habitually assembled on "training day " to sport and frolic.

THE MEXICAN WAR ..

The war with Mexico roused the martial spirit of the people, and more than a full company was raised in the county. Soon after the call of the President for volunteers, May 13, 1846, Abraham Dennis and David C. Shanks announced their intention of raising a company, and accordingly called a meeting at the court house to raise volunteers. Several other meetings were held, and soon the necessary number of men were ready. Several of the leading citizens also assisted by speeches at these meetings, one being Col. Henry Young. The Whig party was opposed to the war to prevent the accession of slave territory, and the Democratic party led by the Southern wing was in favor of the war for the opposite reason. The members of the company were mainly young men from both parties. A day or two before the departure of the com. pany for New Albany, the place of regimental rendezvous, a fine flag was publicly presented to the company by the citizens of Salem. The boys were drawn up in rank on the street northwest of the court house, and were addressed by Miss Patsey Gordon, who. with appropriate remarks fittingly rendered, presented them the banner on behalf of the town and county. Capt. Dennis responded for the company, pledging their lives to maintain the sacredness of the flag. On the day the com- pany departed, Rev. Cyrns Nutt, a resident minister. afterward for many years President of the Indiana State University, delivered them an elo- quent speech of considerable length. This ceremony was held at the cemetery. The iron paling around the grave of Mr. Buckman, a Revo- lutionary soldier, was taken down, piled up, and on this, it is asserted. was placed his tombstone, and npon this stood Mr. Nutt while delivering his speech. Immediately after this each member of the company was presented with a Testament, and then the march for New Albany in wag- ons and on horseback was commenced.

The Company of Capt. Dennis became D of the Second Regiment Indiana Volunteers, and was mustered into the United States service at New Albany about the 22d of June, 1846.

RETURN OF THE MEXICAN VOLUNTEERS.

Upon returning home the company brought with them the corpse of Thomas C. Parr. The boys were met at New Albany by a large delega- tion of their relatives and neighbors, who had gone there with wagons to convey them home. In a few days all that was mortal of Thomas C. Parr was consigned to a grave in the Sulem cemetery, a large crowd being present. Appropriate Christian ceremonies dignified the occasion, and a volley of musketry was fired over the grave of the dead soldier. About this time. also. a barbecue was held in honor of the boys. They were marched in rank out on the Orleans road nearly a mile, to a fine grove, where a large crowd assembled and where several fatted calves browned and sputtered over a roaring tire. Rev. William Shanks deliv- ered the welcoming address, to which several members of the company replied, detailing their experiences in the land of the Montezumas. Capt. Nathan Kimball and Lieut. L. Q. Hoggatt, both of whom had served in other companies in the same regiment, delivered lengthy addresses. All ate of the roasted beef, and left on the ground enough for the buzzards which hovered around for several days.

CAPT. KIMBALL'S COMPANY.

It seems that another company was raised for the Mexican war in the counties of Washington. Orange and Lawrence, mainly in the vicinity of Livonia. The details cannot be given, though after much trouble a copy of the muster-roll at the time of muster-out was obtained from Indi- anapolis. A few men of the company were from Lawrence, though the
