RECALLS CLIMBING TREE "TO SURVEY 'NORTH TOWN'
Original ; Surveyor Tells How .a Group of Five Men Met and Laid Out 4 Site Which Was Des- . : fined.to Become North Springfield
I A . HASWELL ON BRIGHT morning in January 1800 dive men met at the point wbere .the alley between Washington areaDe and Summit avenue DOW Intermots Last Division street and begaà the first survey of north Springfield. They were Doctor Par- Fiat, for many years one of the most Socurato land surveyors in Greene Prouutri: Doctor E. T. Robberson, for Lo jours the best lored citizen of the toway the two Harwood brothers. Charles and Alfred; the fifth of the poup prus myself.
' The point where we bad met was clows'to:the half mile corner on the southsline-of Bection 12, of Town- thip 30. of Range 23. Years before the corner bad been marked with a Limestone, by United States surveyors. but-the place was then a thicket of post' out and black jack maplings, and blackberry branches, and we could not tod the stone.
NORTH TOWN SURVEYED
Doctor Parrish declared the center of cotton 12, baif a mile due north of the spot .: where we were standing was marked by a big lime stone. H. caprested one of the climb a tree with a flag attached to a long pole. He believed that the flag could be been and a survey struck.
I volunteered to climb the tree. Alfred Harwood drove to his home and gos. + 16-foot dsb polo.
I climbed the tree to the topmost Umb, taking with me the pole. It bad .a large white cloth tied to the top, and I wired the pole until I · was about convinced it could not be ma by the surveyor. At length I heard the revolver shot that told .me -the fhar ras located.
That was . the begining of the sur- of North . Springfield, the little town : that was .destined to a stormy .mastemos, of. 18 years, before the two towne consolidated.

RECALLS EARLY FIGHT -
Driw out Washington avenue to a point about 200 feet south of Com- mercial street, and you can see the atvide doping both north and south Commercial street follows it two or three blocks south of the shop fence
After the 18 stormy years which ,
Included the panic of 1852 and the Ofvli war. it became certain that the raftroad would be built through the Ozarks. There was wild rejoicing in war tom Springfield. And then a new equation entered into the prob- lem.
Doctor B. T. Robberson, of whom I have spoken, owned a tract of rome 800 acres lying on both sides of the divide north of Springfield, and cut into balves by the railroad survey. Who first conceived the plan for a new town on that tract I do not know. but a partnership was formed between I. T. Robberson. Charles E. Harwood, and Sempronious H. Boyd. at the time representative in Congress of the Springfield district.
TOWNS INTO STRIFE +-
The three partners made a trip to
Bt. Louis and made the railroad A proposition that if it would build the road on the original survey they would deed 40 acres for the shops They also promised to give a strip ! 200 feet wide through their land for the railroad yarda. They also agreed to lay out 200 acres into a town and give the roadroad an interest in it. The raftroad wanted to accept. but the old town went on the warpath Delegations were rushed to St. Louis New York. and Boston to protest that Springfield must not be rulned by a tinJ town.
Andrew Pierce. the president of the road, and several other officials came to Springfield, and . wildly ezetttog meeting was beld, resulting in am offer by the roadmad that if Sprinthold would put up $25.000. the rood should be swung as far south as Center street. Some of the Spring- field men were in mayor of accepting. but, led by plucky old General C. B. Holland, they finally told Pierce: "Your charter says that you must build into Springfield: we won't pay you & cent!". At that Pierce ripped out & ringing oath, and adjourned the meeting sine die, and from that moment North Springfield became a certainty.
