CENTRE TOWNSHIP.


Centre Township is located in the centre of the County and contains about forty-four square miles. It is bounded on the north by Union and Middle townships; on the east by Middle and Washington; on the south by Liberty and Clay, and on the west by Clay, Marion and Eel River. The surface of this township is slightly rolling, with some small bluffs or brakes on the creeks. It is well watered by White Lick and its branches ; Mill creek also takes its rise near the centre of the township and runs in a south-west direction, supplying that portion of the township with never failing stock water. The soil of the township is more or less of a reddish cast and inclined to be sandy, but produces well. Her supply of gravel for making good roads is almost inexhaustible and her citizens are speedily applying it and receiving the benefits. This was the fourth township in the County to be settled but now ranks first in point of population and wealth. Some of the first settlers of this township were David Matlock, Ross Nichols, Thos. Nichols, James L. Givan, James Christie, Wesley McCenley and James Thompson. Danville, the county-seat is located about the cen- tre of this township and contains about twelve hundred inhabit- ants. The present population of the township is 2795. The cost of public property located in Centre township is about $185,000, itemized as follows: County Asylum for the Poor, one mile east of Danville on the Indianapolis and Rockville road, valued at $40,000; court house in Danville, $80, 000 ; sheriff's residence and jail, $38,000; township school houses, ten in · number, $8,000; and corporation school property of the town of Danville, $20,000. The present township trustee is Alfred Welchans ; incorporation trustees, Simon Cradick, Wm. Homan and Willis Lockhart. The school and church privileges of this township are as good as can be found in the State. Her citizens are kind, affable and intelligent. Morality, education


and temperance go hand in hand here, thereby making Danville the resort for those who wish to educate and the home for the retired Israelite. Her business men are energetic and clever and her improvements are the best in the county.
