MEMBERS OF THE LEGISLATURE FROM WOLFE COUNTY.
Senate .- None resident in the county.
House of Representatives .- C. M. Hawks, 1863-65; Moses B. Lacy, 1865-67.
Swift's Silver Mine (already spoken of under both Carter and Josh Bell counties, see pages 414 and 415), is too beautiful and fanciful to be confined to those counties, but must needs have a local habitation also in Wolfe county-on Lower Devil creek, 6 miles in an air-line from Compton, the county seat (which is 30 miles from Mountsterling). Swift's name is carved on both rocks and trees-by whom, is not known.
In Feb., 1871, three Cherokee Indians (two, men and a squaw), came from the Indian Territory to Irvine, Estill co., Ky. ; thence about 15 miles E. to the farm of Jacob Crabtree. One of the men, who claimed to be a young chief, was educated, talked English, and was well informed about minerals. The object of their journey was quite mysterious-except that it seemed to have connection with the time-out-of-mind tradition about Swift's silver mine ; indeed, the Indians said they were within half a days' journey of that mine. Leaving the squaw at Crabtree's, the Indians followed up Little Sinking creek to its source, crossed over on to Big Sinking creek, and after riding some miles, hitched, their horses; then-warning the whites who out of curi- osity were following at a little distance, that they would turn back if followed further-disappeared in the thick undergrowth. Late in the evening they returned to Crabtree's, bearing upon their horses two buckskin sacks or bags heavily laden. By these sacks one of the Indians kept watch, all night, with a revolver in his hand; and in the morning the three departed, on the re- turn road toward Irvine. The whites went immediately to the neighbor- hood, visited by the Indians, but did not succeed in finding any mineral but iron ore.
Two caves, known as the Ashy and the Bone (or Pot) caves, are about a mile apart, on Lower Devil's ereck. In the latter, on a visit in 1871, were found 27 pots or crucibles, about 1} feet across and same depth, in three rows of 9 cach, and each pot of about half a barrel capacity. The road to it, although unused for many years, was plainly perceptible-being worn

WOODFORD COUNTY.
For biographical sketches of several natives or residents of Woodford co., see as follows : Gov. Chas. Scott, under Scott eo; John J. Crittenden, under Crittenden co. ; John J. Marshall, and his brother, Thos. A. Marshall, under Jefferson co .; Capt. Virgil MeCracken, under McCracken, co. ; Capt. Jas. Meade, under Meade county.
Gen. WILLIAM WOODFORD, in honor of whom this county received its name, a Revolutionary officer of high merit, was born in Caroline county, Virginia. He early distinguished himself in the French and Indian war. Upon the assembling of the Virginia troops in Williamsburg, in 1775, consequent upon the hostile attitude of Lord Dunmore, he was appointed colonel of the second regiment. At the battle of Great Bridge, Dec. 9th, he had the chief com- mand, and gained a signal victory over the enemy. He was finally promoted to the command of the first brigade, in which station he served through the Revolutionary war. He was in various actions and in the battle of Brandy- wine was wounded. He was made prisoner in 1780, during the siege of Charleston, and taken to New York, where he died Nov. 13, 1780, aged 45.
[This sketch properly belongs under Wayne county.]
Gen. ANTHONY WAYNE, in honor of whom Wayne county was named, was a distinguished officer in the United States' service, and was born in Chester county, Pennsylvania, January 1st, 1745. He received a good education, and after leaving school at the age of eighteen, took up the business of surveying, in which he acquired great reputation and success. He was one of the pro- vincial deputies who, early in 1774. were chosen by the different counties of Pennsylvania to take into consideration the state of affairs with Great Britain ; and a member of the convention which shortly after assembled at Philadel- phia. In the same year he was elected to the legislature, and in 1775 ap- pointed a member of the committee of safety. In September of this year he raised a company of volunteers, and in the ensuing January, was appointed by congress, colonel of one of the Pennsylvania regiments, and at the oven- ing of the campaign received orders to join the army under Gen. Lee at New York. In 1777, he was promoted to the rank of brigadier sporral In the battle of Brandywine he commanded a division stationed at Chad's ford, to resist the passage of Knyphausen. He maintained the contest until bear sun-
set. when he was compelled to retreat. He was in the battle of term intown, where he evinced his wonted valor; he was also present at the battle of Mon mouth. In July, 1779, he stormed the strong fortress of Ftony Point by a night assault. He was present at Yorktown, and witnessed the surrender of Lord Cornwallis. He was subsequently sent to the south, where he re- mained. until the conclusion of peace. In 1759, he was a member of the Pennsylvania convention and an advocate of the Constitution of the United States. In 1792, he was appointed by Washington, successor to bien. St. Clair in the command of the army engaged against the Indians on the western frontier. It was at first supposed that his ardor would render him an unft opponent of a foe remarkable for caution. He soon, however, proved the incorrectness of this idea. He established admirable di-cinting among his troops, and by his wise and prevent measures in preparing for an engagement, and the skill and bravery with which he fought and ganot the battle of August 20th, 1794, near the rise Miami of the likes he brought the war to a completely successful termination. In 1705, he cond'aide i a caf- inite treaty of peace with the Indians. He died in December, 1796.

MEMBERS OF THE KENTUCKY LEGISLATURE,
FROM 1792 To 1859.
The list of Senators and Representatives, from cach County, in the Ken- tucky Legislature is published under the counties respectively. This list is complete in them all since 1859, in others since 1814-15, and in some others nearly or quite complete from the organization of the counties, or of the state itself in 1792. This irregularity grew out of the impossibility of securing an unbroken list-because of the several calamitous fires which, in burning the state houses, consumed so many of the public records and printed volumes at Frankfort (see pages 246-7, of this volume). But by personal examination of all the old newspaper volumes and files to which he could get access, and of all the Senate and House Journals in private and public libraries of which he could hear, the author has succeeded-during three years of continuous severe labor-in making the additional list below full far beyond the most sanguine hopes. [Ile will be thankful for the loan of any of the Journals from 1792 to 1813-only two of which has he been able to find-with the view to still further complete the list, in future edi- tions of this work. ]
