HISTORY OF BOONE COUNTY.


Missouri. He is the first individual who has attempted the navigation of the Missouri by steam power, a river that has hitherto borne the character of being very difficult and eminently dangerous in its navigation; but we are happy to state, that his pro- gress thus far has not been impeded by any accident. `Among the passengers were Col. Elias Rector, Mr. Stephen Rector, Capt. Desha, J. C. Mitchell, Esq., Dr. Stewart, Mr. J. Wanton, Maj. J. D. Wilcox.


THE DINNER AND TOASTS.


The day after the arrival of the Independence, Capt. Nelson and the passengers par- took of a dinner, given by the citizens of Franklin, in honor of the occasion.


After the cloth was removed, Capt. Asa Morgan was called to the chair, and Dr. N. Hutchinson acted as vice-president, when the following toasts were drank:


Ist. The Missouri River. - Its last wave will roll the abundant tribute of our region to the Mexican Gulf, in reference to the auspices of this day.


2d. The Memory of Robert Fulton. - One of the most distinguished artists of his age. The Missouri River now bears upon her bosom the first effect of his genius for steam navigation.


3d. The Memory of Franklin, the Philosopher and Statesman. - In anticipation of his country's greatness, he never imagined that a boat at this time, would be propelled by steam so far westward, to a town bearing his name on the Missouri.


4th. Capt. Nelson. - The proprietor of the steamboat Independence. The imagin- ary dangers of the Missouri vanished before his enterprising genius.


5th. Louisville, Franklin and Chariton. - They become neighbors by steam navi- gation.


6th. The Republican Government of the United States. - By facilitating the inter- course between distant points, its benign influence may be diffused over the continent of North America.


7th. The Policy resulting in the expedition to the Yellowstone.


8th. South America. - May an early day witness the navigation of the Amazon and La Plata by steam power, under the auspices of an independent government.


9th. Internal Improvement. - The New York Canal, an imperishable monument of the patriotism and genius of its projector.


10th. The Missouri Territory .- Desirous to be numbered with the States on Consti- tutional principles, but determined never to submit to Congressional usurpation.


11th. James Monroe .- President of the United States.


12th. The Purchase of the Floridas .- A hard bargain.


13th. The American Fair.


VOLUNTEERS.


By Col. Elias Rector -The memory of my departed friend, Gen. Benjamin Howard; he was a man of worth.


By Gen. Duff Green - The Union - It is dear to us; but liberty is dearer.


· By Capt. Nelson - I will ever bear in grateful remembrance the liberality and hos- pitality of the citizens of Franklin.


By Dr. James H. Benson - The Territory of Missouri - May she emerge from her present degraded situation.


By J. C. Mitchell, Esq. - Gen. T. A. Smith - The Cincinnatus of Missouri.


By Maj. Thompson Douglass - The Citizens of Franklin - Characterized by hos- pitality and generosity.


By Stephen Rector, Esq. - May the Missourians defend their rights, if necessary, even at the expense of blood, against the unprecedented restriction which was attempted to be imposed on them by the Congress of the United States.

By John W. Scudder, Esq. - Our Guests -The passengers who ascended the Mis- souri in the Independence; they have the honor to be the first to witness the success- ful experiment of steam navigation on our noble river.


By Benjamin Holliday - The 28th of May, 1819-Franklin will long remember it, and the Independence and her commander will be immortalized in history.


By Dr. Dawson-The Next Congress - May they be men consistent in their con- struction of the Constitution; and when they admit new States into the Union, be actuated less by a spirit of compromise than the just rights of the people.

By Dr. J. J. Lowry - (After the President had retired) -The President of the day. By Maj. R. Gentry - (After the Vice-President had retired) - The Vice-President of the day.


Not one of the persons mentioned above is alive to-day.


[From the St. Louis Enquirer, June 9, 1819.]


"The passage of the steamboat Independence, Capt. Nelson, up the Missouri to Franklin and Chariton, is an era in the history of that noble river, and has called forth the most lively feelings of joy and triumph all over the country. By referring to the head of 'Steamboat Intelligence,' it will be seen that the banks of the river were visited by crowds of citizens to witness this great event, and to testify their joy and admiration."


THE SECOND STEAMBOAT. 1


In 1818 the Government of the United States projected the cele- brated Yellowstone Expedition, the objects of which were to ascertain whether the Missouri River was navigable by steamboats, and to estab- lish a line of forts from its mouth to the Yellowstone. The expedi- tion started from Plattsburg, New York, in 1818, under command of Colonel Henry Atkinson. General Nathan Ranney, a well known citizen of St Louis, who not long ago died in that city, was an attache of this expedition. Also Captain Wm. D. Hubbell, now (1882) a citi- zen of Columbia. It arrived at Pittsburg in the spring of 1819, where Colonel Stephen H. Long, of the Topographical Engineers of the U. S. Army, had constructed the " Western Engineer," a small steam-


1

boat, to be used by him and his scientific corps in pioneering the. expedition to the mouth of the Yellowstone.


This vessel reached St. Louis June 9, 1819, and, proceeding on its voyage, arrived at Franklin July 13, same year. The following gen- tlemen were on board : Major S. H Long, commander ; Maj. Thomas Biddle ( who was killed, Aug. 27, 1831, in a duel with Spencer Pettis, on Bloody Island, and after whom Biddle Street, St. Louis, was named) ; Lieuts. Graham and Swift, Maj. Benj. O'Fallon, Indian agent ; Mr. Daugherty, assistant agent and interpreter ; Dr. Wm. Baldwin, botanist ; 1 Thomas Say, zoologist ; Mr. Jessup, geologist ; Mr. Seymour, landscape painter ; and Mr. Peale, assistant naturalist.


On Monday, July 19, the vessel proceeded on its voyage up the Missouri, and reached Council Bluffs on the 17th of September, where it stopped for the winter.


Owing to the peculiar construction of the " Western Engineer," as well as to the fact that a water craft of any kind, and especially one propelled by steam, was a novel spectacle, its progress up the river excited the greatest wonder among the Indians, many of whom flocked to the river banks to see it, while others fled in fear to the forests or prairies, thinking it an evil spirit, a very devil with serpent's head and breath of fire and steam.


The St. Louis Enquirer of June 16, 1819, contains this description of it :


THE STEAMER "WESTERN ENGINEER."


The bow of the vessel exhibits the form of a huge serpent, black and scaly, rising out of the water from under the boat, his head as high as the deck, darted forward, his mouth open, vomiting smoke, and apparently carrying the boat on his back. From under the boat, at its stern, issues a stream of foaming water, dashing violently along All the machinery is hid. Three "small brass field pieces, mounted on wheel carriages, stand on the deck; the boat is ascending the rapid stream at the rate of three miles an hour. Neither wind nor human hands are seen to help her; and to the eye of igno- rance the illusion is complete, that a monster of the deep carries her on his back, smok- ing with fatigue, and lashing the waves with violent exertion.


PRICES OF PROVISIONS.


[Franklin (Mo.) Intelligencer, April 1, 1820.]


Provisions of almost every kind are cheap and plentiful, but labor and boarding are high; wheat is one dollar per bushel, corn thirty-three and one-third cents, beef and pork at five dollars per cwt., and boarding from three dollars and fifty cents to six dollars per week.


1 Owing to illness Dr. Baldwin abandoned the expedition at Franklin, and died there Sept. 1, 1819.

MEAGERNESS OF MAIL FACILITIES.


In this era of telegraphic and railroad facilities, whereby important intelligence is transmitted by lightning and .by daily and semi-daily mails, we can scarcely conceive of a period, within the personal recol- lection of many of the old pioneers who survive among us, during which the prospect of a stage line once or twice or three times a week would be hailed with delight. But read the following from the Frank- lin Intelligencer, of April 23, 1819 :


It is contemplated, we understand, shortly to commence running a stage from St. Louis to Franklin. Such an undertaking would, no doubt, liberally remunerate the enterprising and meritorious individuals engaged, and be of immense benefit to the public, who would, doubtless, prefer this to any other mode of travelling. A stage has been running from St. Louis to St. Charles, three times a week, for several months past. Another from the town of Illinois [now East St. Louis, opposite St. Louis] to Edwardsville: - a line from Edwardsville to Vincennes, we understand is in con- templation. It will then only remain to have it continued from Vincennes to Louis- ville. When these lines shall have gone into operation, a direct communication by stage will then be opened from the Atlantic States to Boone's Lick, on the Missouri.


Benj. Stephens, who is yet alive and a resident of Boone county, northwest of Columbia, was one of the firm of Wetzel, McClelland & Stephens, who had the contract for bringing the mail from St. Charles to Fayette, and in 1834 drove the first Troy coach ever in Columbia.


IMMIGRATION TO THE BOONE'S LICK COUNTRY.


Notwithstanding the unusual sickness that prevailed, and the many deaths which occurred in 1819, the immigration to " the Boone's Lick Country " was very great, as will be seen by the following ex- tract from the Franklin Intelligencer of Nov. 19, 1819 :


IMMIGRATION.


The immigration to this Territory, and particularly to this county, during the pres- ent season almost exceeds belief. Those who have arrived in this quarter are princi- pally from Kentucky, Tennessee, etc. Immense numbers of wagons, carriages, carts, etc., with families, have for some time past been daily arriving. During the month of October it is stated that no less than 271 wagons and four-wheeled carriages and 55 two-wheeled carriages and carts passed near St. Charles, bound principally for Boon's Lick. It is calculated that the number of persons accompanying these wagons, etc., could not be less than three thousand (3,000). It is stated in the St. Louis Enquirer, of the 10th inst., that about twenty wagons, etc., per week had passed through St. Charles for the last nine or ten weeks, with wealthy and respectable emigrants from various States whose united numbers are supposed to amount to 12,000. The county of Howard, already respectable in numbers, will soon possess a vast popula- tion; and no section of our country presents a fairer prospect to the emigrant.

HISTORY OF BOONE COUNTY.


SMITHTON AND COLUMBIA.


Very naturally the increase of population within the present limits of Boone county, during the years 1816, 1817, and 1818 was followed by the questions of an organized county, separate from Howard, and the location of a county seat. The site of the new village of Lex- ington at Thrall's Prairie was in every respect except one, a very eligible location, and that one was, it was not near the geographical centre of the proposed county, the western and eastern boundaries of which nature seemed to have fixed at the Moniteau and Cedar creeks. About midway, therefore, between these streams, and about the same distance from the Missouri river as from either, was generally regarded as the proper, because the most convenient location, and just to the extremes, for the county seat.


Believing the organization of a new county was simply a question of time, and most probably a short time, certain observant and enter- prising citizens were not slow to adopt measures to found a town which they hoped in the early future would become the seat of justice of the new county.


In pursuance of this object a company was formed to purchase, at the first government land sales held in the State at Franklin, Novem- ber 18th, 1818, certain rich and eligible lands, in the midst of a fertile agricultural district, possessing advantages of healthfulness, water, and timber, on which to project a town. It was called " The Smith- ton Company " and the town they started " Smithton," in honor of Col. Thomas A. Smith, Register of the United States Land Office at Franklin.


(E. W. Stephens's Sketches in the Statesman.)


" The rate paid per acre for land was from $4 to $6. The land was divided into lots of eleven and forty acres, and thus apportioned to the different purchasers as each might elect.


" NAMES OF THE SMITHTON COMPANY.


" They were thirty-five in number, as follows : Richard Love, Lil- burn W. Boggs, Robert Snell, Wallace Estill, Gerard Robinson, Angus L. Longhorn, Richard Gentry, Thomas Story, John Wil- liams, Wm. Byars, John Thornton, David Gordon, Robert S. Barr, Anderson Woods, David Todd, Wm. Grayson, Wm. S. Hatch, Alfred R. Head, Mason Moss, James H. Bennett, Absalom McDaniel, Wm ..

Bass, Lewis N. Jourdan, Taylor Berry, Nicholas S. Burckhart, Henry Cave, and Tarlton Turner.


" The company conveyed to five of their number as trustees, viz : Thomas Duley, Gerard Robinson, David Todd, Richard Gentry, and Taylor Berry, the portions of the tract situated on the south half of sections 1, 2, and 11, township 48, on which to lay out a town, and during the winter of 1818-19 it was done. The site occupied the elevated ground some half mile west of the present court-house in Columbia, and now owned and occupied as a residence, grounds, and pasture by Jefferson Garth.


Although during the spring of 1819 there was a sale of lots in Smithton, and quite a large number of purchases made, there were no houses built until the fall of that year, except a small log cabin. Who built this cabin we have not been able to learn. The trustees them- selves made no movement for the improvement of the town until, in pursuance of the following advertisement, they contracted for the erection of a " double hewed-log house : " -


[Franklin (Mo.) Intelligencer, July 23, 1819.] SMITHTON.


The Trustees of Smithton wish immediately to contract for building a double hewed-log house, shingled roof and stone chimneys, one story and a half high, in that town. Timber and stone are very convenient.


They will also contract for digging and walling a well. The improvements to be finished by the first of November next, when payment will be made. Apply to the subscribers.

Trustees.

Stephens's Sketches for the Statesman: "The double hewed-log house, with several other smaller ones, was let in the fall and built. The occupants of this house were the family of Gen. Richard Gentry (the father of Thomas B. Gentry and Mrs. Boyle Gordon, who are now residents of Columbia and the last of a family of thirteen ). Gen. Gentry kept there a house of entertainment, till his removal to Columbia a year afterwards. There also resided in Smithton two lawyers, Anthony B. Wayne and Samuel Wheeler ; a physician, Dr. Daniel P. Wilcox ; 1 a grocery merchant, Peter Kearney, and several

laboring men, among whom were Charles Burns, Benj. Mothershead, and - Butterworth."


The difficulty of obtaining water by digging wells-for, at that. period, nobody thought of cisterns, either in the ground or above it - soon developed wide-spread dissatisfaction with the town location, and consequent propositions to move it to the east side of Flat Branch, a small tributary of the Hinkson, and which ran along the east side of the beautiful plateau on which Smithton was situated. It was urged that in the lower lands, in the valley of this branch, water could be ·had ; and finally, unable to resist the force of the arguments for re- moval, and conformably to the almost invariable custom of the early pioneers of the West, Smithton was transferred to the coveted site on a water course.


FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION AT SMITHTON.


Although, for the reasons mentioned, the infant town of Smithton was in a state of decadence, its early desertion to the eastern side of Flat Branch being a fixed fact, the patriotic ardor of its citizens suffered no abatement, for on the Fourth of July, 1820, under the genial shade of the stately sugar trees which there abounded, they assembled to celebrate the day. The Franklin Intelligencer, of July 29, records in what manner it was done : -


THE FOURTH OF JULY.


The Fourth of July, 1820, was celebrated at Smithton by a large and respectable. number of the citizens of the eastern part of Howard County. About 2 o'clock the company sat down to an excellent dinner, provided for the occasion. After the cloth was removed Col. John Williams was chosen president, and Capt. Overton Harris, vice-president, when the following toasts were drank, with great glee and hilarity : -


1. The day we celebrate - the birthday of our liberties - may posterity cherish its. remembrance.


2. The United States of America.


3. The American Navy.


4. The memory of Gen. George Washington.


5. Thomas Jefferson. His administration - a perfect model of republicanism.


6. James Madison - the Patriot and Statesman.


7. James Monroe ;- President of the United States.


8. Henry Clay -- the profound Statesman, zealous republican, and distinguished advocate of the rights of man -his loss in the councils of the nation will be severely felt by the citizens of; Missouri.


9. The Missouri Convention - may they give us a sound Constitution.

THE TOWN OF NASHVILLE. [From Stephens's Sketch. ]


" One among the first towns projected within the present limits of Boone County was laid out in 1819, just below the present site of Prov- idence, on a tract.of land owned by Ira P. Nash, an eccentric genius who lived in that vicinity for many years, from whom it was named Nashville.'


" In 1820 Nashville contained a tobacco warehouse, kept by James Harris and Abraham J. Williams ; a post-office, and several other buildings. It at that time promised to be one of the largest shipping points on the Missouri, and grew to be a place of some enterprise, when the treacherous river swept it away."


In the Franklin Intelligencer of December 17, 1819, appeared the following publication relative to this town : -


THE TOWN OF NASHVILLE FOR SALE.


THE above TOWN is laid off on a Spanish grant confirmed by the United States. The title to said property is indisputable, and situated on the North bank of the Mis- souri river, near the mouth of Little Bonne Femme creek, about thirty miles below the town of Franklin, and about the same distance above Cote San Dessein.


NASHVILLE is the nearest and most convenient point on the river to which the ex tensive and numerous settlement in the Two Mile Prairie and the surrounding country can have access. It promises to enjoy a large proportion of the trade of the river; and from the convenience of its situation, it will furnish many facilities to the trans-

portation of the vast quantities of surplus produce of an extensive and salubrious soil. The landing at this town is at all seasons of the year superior to most other places, and certainly inferior to none on the Missouri. The proprietors have concluded to give the public at large an opportunity of enjoying the profits arising from the increase of town property, by offering at


PUBLIC SALE A FEW LOTS IN NASHVILLE,


At FRANKLIN, on Saturday, the first of January, 1820.


The remainder of the Lots in the town of Nashville will be offered at public sale on the 15th day of January, 1820, at Nashville.


A credit of six, twelve, and eighteen months will be given to purchasers, by their executing notes for the payment of the purchase money.
