The first naval battle of the Revolution occurred on the waters of Lake Champlain, off the west shore of Valeour Island, in the channel between the island and the Peru shore, on Oct. 11, 1776. The engagement was between the English, under the command of Capt. Pringle, who had a force of upwards of 1000 men, 4 ships, 20 gun- boats, 4 long-boats, 24 other vessels, and 90 guns, and the Americans, under Benedict Arnold, who had a force of 600 men, 4 schooners, 8 gondolas, 3 galleys, and several smaller vessels, mounting in all about 80 guns.

The battle continued until night, when hostilities ceased, to be resumed the next morning; but Gen. Arnold, believ- ing that it would be useless to resist further such a superior force, withdrew in the darkness of the night, and set sail towards the south. The British did not discover the flight until the next morning, when they immediately started in pursuit, and suceeeded in overtaking them on the 13th, in the narrow part of the lake. Another engagement then took place, which resulted disastrously to the Americans.

A memento of this battle still exists in the " Royal Savage," one of the American vessels, which, after a sharp confliet with the enemy, and in attempting to fall back, was grounded upon a point of land near the south end of Val- cour, was abandoned by her crew, and during the night burned by the British. In low water the remains of the

vessel are distinetly visible, and innumerable attempts have been made to secure the treasures with which she was sup- posed to have been freighted. Efforts have been made to raise the wreck, and skillful divers have examined her eabin and hold. It is represented that the bottom of the lake in the vieinity is strewn with balls and bullets, the latter white and glistening by the attrition of the sand. Many inter- esting relics, among them a bursted eannon, have been raised and preserved from the wreck.

NOTES.

The first child born in the town was Ira, son of John Howe, in 1784. The first marriage was that of Lott El- more and Mary Hay, Dee. 17, 1788. The first death was that of William Hay, Feb. 28, 1779.

INDUSTRIAL PURSUITS.

The principal industrial pursuit of the present inhabi- tants of the town of Peru is the cultivation of the rich and productive soil. While this has always been one of the prominent industries of the town, yet in the past manufac- turing of various kinds, iron- and eloth-making, have added increased stimulus and activity to the business life of the town. Saw- and grist-mills without number have been seattered through the town, availing themselves of the splendid water-power of the Little Ausable and Salmon Rivers, and of some of the larger of the smaller streams.

The opening of the Arnold orc-bed, about the year 1810, stimulated the building of furnaces and forges in various parts of the town.

Ketchum's furnace, two miles west of the Union, and Atna furnace, three miles west of Peru village, were, in their day, quite suceessful in the manufacture of hollow- ware, stoves, plows, and especially potash-kettles, which were in great demand for the numerous asheries in all parts of the surrounding country.

Forges were construeted at Goshen, Bartonville, Clinton- ville, Keeseville, Birmingham, and Black Brook, at that time all within the boundaries of Peru. Extensive rolling- mills and nail-factories were also ereeted on the Ausable at Clintonville and Keeseville.

Samuel Peasle, at Peasleville, and Caleb Barton, at Bar- tonville, operated early forges.

A man by the name of Weed established the first forge in town. It oeeupied the site of Lapham's grist-mill.

The first saw- and grist-mill was built at Peru village by John Cochran, from whom it passed to John Haekstaff, and thenee to the Heyworth family, the present owners.

The manufacture of eloth, and a carding establishment, constituted an industry at Peru village as early as 1815, and was continued for many years.

The first grist-mill at Lapham's Mills was built by Hey- worth & Travis for Robert Platt, one of the proprietors of the traet which had in the mean time passed out of the possession of Bell. The first forge at this point was a wood structure, and was built by Mr. Weed at the lower fall. This was burned, and afterwards rebuilt by Elisha Clark. It subsequently passed into the possession of Charles C. Starbuek and James Rogers. It was again burned, and rebuilt about 1830 by Wells and Travis.

About 1840 the property came into the possession of Jo- seph Lapham and Caleb D. Barton.

Previous to this time the place had been called " Travis' Forge," but now it beeame " Bartonville." Lapham & Barton reconstructed the forge, and also ereeted a plaster- mill. In 1849, Barton built a rolling-mill at the lower dam, using the eseape heat of the forge for heating his irons for the rolls. Here the iron made at the forge was rolled into merehantable forms of various kinds. This rolling-mill was operated about four years, when Mr. Bar- ton removed to Milwaukee, where he has since died.

Still lower down the river saw-mills were built, at the " Basin," and at the fall on the White farm ; but there is nothing left now, except at what is known as Lapham's Mills, or " Adirondaek Mills," the proprietors of which are N. Lapham & Sons.

The head of this firm, Hon. Nathan Lapham, built a grist-mill there in 1849. The mill was finished in Deeem- ber, and had got fairly running when it took fire and burned, together with a large quantity of wheat in the store-house. The work of rebuilding was immediately commeneed, and in September, 1850, the new mill was running. The pres- ent establishment is 60 by 40 feet, and three stories high, with a wing 25 by 40, in which is the office. There are four runs of stone, together with all the modern improve- ments in the way of purifiers, bran-dusters, eleaners, separa- tors, elevators, conductors, and packers, such as are found in all modern first-class grist-mills. A large overshot wheel drives the machinery, but in case of aceidents, low water, or anehor-iee, a steam-engine stands ready, so that the mill ean be run the year round.

The capacity of the mill is 600 barrels of flour a month, and a specialty is now made of the manufacture of fine buek wheat-flour.

Just below the grist-mill is a saw-mill, built in 1866, shingle-mill, box-factory, and plaster-mill. It was formerly the site of an iron-forge.

Lapham's starch-mill is located a mile west of Peru village. It was ereeted in 1856, by John H. Barker, as a stareh-mill, who operated it eight years, when he was sue- eeeded by Nathan Lapham, the present owner. Here Mr. Lapham is engaged in the manufacture of starch from potatoes. The eapaeity of the mill is 200 tons a year, using 40,000 bushels of potatoes. Mill is only operated at the season of the year when potatoes are in good condition for handling.

In addition to these enterprises, Mr. Lapham also operates a saw-mill at Peasleville. In connection with his flour mill he also has a store, which was established in the winter of 1878.

He also has a box- and spool-factory at Norrisville, in the town of Schuyler Falls.

In 1839, Ausable and Black Brook were formed from Peru, by which act the valuable iron interests were left out of the present boundaries of the town. The primitive forests, the lumber and iron trade, have now all disappeared. No town in the county has been so transformed by the changes of time. The building of the railroad from Platts- burgh south has made that village the lake port for Peru. The glory of Port Jaekson and Peru Landing have disap-

peared with the little villages of Ketchum's and Atna Fur- naces. The Union, Goshen, and Bartonville, with their furnaces, forges, stores, and mechanic shops, have all vanished away with the causes that gave them birth. The keel of commerce scarcely disturbs the quiet shores of Peru. To- day the inhabitants are mostly engaged in the peaceful pur- suits of agriculture, and probably at no former time has there been more real wealth within the present boundaries of the town.

At Peru village a starch-factory is successfully conducted by George Heyworth, a grist-mill by Heyworth & White, on the site of the old Hackstaff mill, and a cheese-factory by the Peru Butter and Cheese Company. Besides these there are several mechanic shops.

The Peru Butter and Cheese Company was organized in the winter of 1874. The present handsome building was erected the same year. The company take in 5000 pounds of milk daily, and make 250 cheeses a month. The mill when worked to its full capacity can produce 16 cheeses a day. These are of fine quality and have a ready sale. The president of the company is Samuel Bentley.

During the war of 1812 the press-gang seized the teams of John Taylor, Elisha Arnold, Elisha Button, Stephen Keese, John Haff, Jonathan Griffith, Charles Barton, and others, with a special view to the transportation of troops to Sackett's Harbor.

Nearly every one who could shoulder a musket took part in the war. Some of those who responded to the requisition made upon the militia by the officer in command at Platts- burgh were David Cochran, captain ; Elisha Button, lieu- tenant; Lucius Elderkin, orderly sergeant ; Peter Haff, Abraham Haff, Elvey Ketehum, Isaac Ketchum, Ezra Stewart, Solomon Stewart, Allen Everest, Zelotes Bemas, Brinton Auson, Amos Anson, Jeremiah Hays, Asa Coch- ran, Nathaniel Cochran, Gardner Button, and others.

Capt. Cochran, with his men, was among the first to re- port to Gen. Macomb at Plattsburgh for duty, in Septem- ber, 1814, when that place was threatened by a superior forec of well- trained soldiery. On Tuesday, September 6th, his company, with others, was ordered out on the Beek- mantown road to tear up the bridges and render the ap- proach to Plattsburgh in that direction as difficult as pos- sible. At a stream about four miles from Plattsburgh, while busy tearing up a bridge, nearly all of his men having their arms stacked, they were suddenly fired upon by a large body of troops, under the command of Gen. Willington, who came through the woods and around a bend in the road just beyond them. With great presence of mind, Capt. Cochran ordered his men to form into line of battle and return the fire of the enemy. It was at this point that the fight began for the defeuse of Plattsburgh, and the troops from Peru have the honor of having first met the foe. Not one of them was killed or wounded, and after having given battle an orderly retreat was commenced to- wards Plattsburgh, the men loading and firing on the march as Willington followed with his detachment of Sir Jolin Prevost's army, numbering 6000 men. The company con- tinued to perform patriotic and useful serviec during the war, and were not formally discharged until 1815.

John S. Thew is another citizen of the town who served

in the war of 1812; and Samuel P. Moore, who still lives in the town, was a regular soldier in the same war.

The records of the town bear abundant testimony to its patriotism during the late civil war. Sums of money were promptly raised at various times for the payment of bounties, and the several quotas of men required by the general government were promptly furnished.

The following list of soldiers who served in the war was compiled by William N. Martin, town clerk :

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES.

RICHARD KEESE,

the subject of this notice, was born in Peru, Clinton Co., Nov. 23, 1794. He is of Quaker stock. His father, with his family, moved to Peru in 1791, from Dutchess County,

352

HISTORY OF CLINTON COUNTY, NEW YORK.

making a sojourn of a year or two at Pittstown, Rensselaer Co. He died in 1821, was a business man, and largely engaged in farming and other business at the time of his death. In 1812 he became the owner of most of the land upon which the village of Keeseville is now situated, and, in connection with others, soon thereafter commenced business there. As early as 1815 his son Richard, of whom we are writing, began operations at this place in con- nection with his father's business, and the year thereafter became a permanent resident of the place, then known as Anderson's Falls, but soon took the name of Keeseville, where he has since lived. He soon entered into busi- ness on his own account, and for many years was actively engaged, principally in the iron business, in its various branches. In 1820 he built what is known as the " upper dam" and a forge upon it; was a stockholder and director for many years in the Kecseville Manufacturing Company, which did an extensive business in the manufacture of merchant iron and cut nails; was a director and vice- president of the Essex County Bank, and in many ways long identified with the principal business operations of this locality. After his withdrawal from active business he became the secretary of the Clinton and Essex Mutual Insurance Company, and under his supervision it for many years did a large and prosperous business, which terminated only because of the universal failure of that plan of in- surance.

Mr. Keese always had a taste for politics, and for many years held no inconsiderable sway in that fickle field. It can be remembered by those not yet old, when he was the only Democrat who could be clected supervisor of the old town of Peru, then almost an empire, embracing the pres- ent towns of Black Brook and Ausable, beside the present very respectable town of Peru.

He was elected to Congress in 1826, and served as a men- ber of the Twentieth Congress ; has since held the position, and served as one of the judges of the old Clinton Common Pleas, and held various other minor offices, and has per- formed all his duties and obligations, public and private, with fidelity.

He was married in 1817 to Lydia Hurlbut, of Ferris- burgh, Vt. She died in 1864; and of eight children two only survive.

Judge Keese is of a cheerful temper and disposition, to which, no doubt, he is in some degree indebted for his yet tolerable health of body and the entire preservation of his mental faculties, although an octogenarian.

GEORGE E. HALLOCK.

The ancestors of the Hallock family settled in Suffolk Co., Long Island, in 1640. George Hallock, the subject of this sketch, is descended from John Hallock, a grandson of Peter Hallock, one of the settlers above mentioned.

The parents of George were Peter and Mary (Kees) Hallock, who had ten children : Elizabeth, Joshua, John Kees, Jemima, Isaac, Phebe, George, Sarah, Joseph Addi- son, and Mary Ann. Peter Hallock, with his family, came to this county in 1794, and settled on the place where his

son George now lives. The broad, fertile, and well-tilled fields, so well fenced and kept now, at that time were one unbroken forest, which his father and sons, and he and his sons, by dint of much toil, liave transformed from dense and tangled woods to the condition which they now pre- sent. Long may they live to enjoy the fruits of their in- dustry.

George has always lived on the homestead, and made farming his business. He has taken a lively interest in politics ; has been supervisor of his town for several terms, once chairman of the board under Democratic majority, although a life-long Whig and Republican. He was for three years coroner, and served his district in the Legis- lature of the State.

Mr. Hallock has been married three times. To his pres- ent wife, Amanda F. Sheldon, third daughter of Edmund and Mary (Haight) Sheldon, of Willsborough, Essex Co., N. Y., he was married June 6, 1839. As a result of this union, two children have been born,-George P., living with his father, and Charles H., living in Chicago, engaged in the grain-trade, and member of the Board of Trade of that city.

Mr. Hallock belongs to the old Quaker stock, at one time so numerous in this section. His father, as carpen- ter and joiner, built the first Friends' meeting-house in " The Union," Peru, and was an elder of the society at his death, and for many years before.

Mr. Hallock is a cousin of the poet Fitz-Greene Hal- lock.

THIS town lies upon the west borders of the county, and is bounded as follows : on the north by Dannemora ; on the east by Plattsburgh and Schuyler Falls ; on the south by Peru and Black Brook ; and on the west by Franklin County.

The surface is a broken and mountainous upland, the high- est summits on the west border attaining an elevation of 7000 feet above tide. The town is drained by the Saranac River and its tributaries. The east part of the town, slop- ing towards the river, is covered with a light, sandy soil, while the river intervale is covered with a sandy loam and alluvium.

THE FIRST SETTLEMENT.

The first settlement in this town, says Dr. French, in his " Gazetteer," published in 1860, was made by Russell Case and Ezekiel Pierce in 1802. Mrs. Eli Bates, how- ever, in an interview with the editor of the Plattsburgh Republican, inclines to the opinion that an eccentrie man,

TOWN OF SARANAC.

known as " Old Taylor (or Tailor) Allen," was the first sct- tler. He lived in a log shanty on the premises subsequently occupied by Nathaniel Lyon. It is said that his wife was in the habit of walking through the woods to the head of Chazy Lake, where trout were so plenty that she could easily catch them in her apron in quantities as large as she wished to carry home.

Other pioneers were Lambert Hopper, a local Methodist minister, who came in 1805, Wright Spaulding, John Chamberlain, John M. Hopper, Sylvanus Smith, Lyman Munly, John Gregory, Lewis and Isaac Ferris, and Isaac and John Lambert.

The following sketch of one of the early settlers, Na- thaniel Lyon, and early days in Saranac, is taken from the Plattsburgh Republican :

" Nathaniel Lyon moved from Royalton, Vt., about the year 1800, to Moretown, Vt., where he resided until the winter of 1803-4, when, attracted by rumors of the extraordinary fertility of the soil and wonderful resources of the western border of the Champlain Valley, he again moved his little family, this time across Lake Champlain on the ice to Plattsburgh, which was then a thriving town, twenty-eight years old, with several hundred inhabitants. But it was no part of the plan of our pioneer to halt in an old place like this, but rather to push out into the wilder- ness and make an opening for himself. So putting his little family (among whom was his little girl, six years old, now Mrs. Eli Bates, to whom we are indebted for much of the material in this paper), with his scanty stock of household goods, upon an ox-sled, he made his way in the snow, through the wilderness, up the Saranac River. Starting in the morning, he arrived within about three miles of his destina- tion when night came on, and finding a deserted log cabin, he concluded to occupy it for the night, and did so, the family bringing in their own bedding and making them- selves as comfortable as possible, but so open was the roof and walls of the old log hut that in the morning they found several inches of snow upon the beds. Mr. Lyon settled upon a farm about a mile and a half westerly from what is now Saranac village, which was then all a wilderness, no road even extending farther up the river than the little set- tlement in which Mr. Lyon found himself.

" Mr. Lyon, after living a few years on his first place, moved back some four miles, well up towards the base of Lyon Mountain, where he cleared quite a large farm. Part of his stock was a flock of sheep, and our informant remem- bers how they used to get the flock up into a high log pen to keep them safe from the wolves, and that one night, when her father was away from home, a large wolf came up boldly and placed his paws on the side of the pen, as if he intended to jump over and help himself to mutton ; but he was finally clubbed away by Mrs. Lyon. Mr. Lyon lived here during the remainder of his life under the shadow of the mountain, on which he used to hunt occasionally, which was named after him, and it is an interesting fact, which was noticed in the Republican at the time, that the first lady to aseend the summit of Lyon Mountain, Ang. 8, 1876, was Miss Hattie Lyon, a granddaughter of Nathaniel Lyon, who died in Saranac about thirty-five years ago."

Osmon Butterfield, Lewis Bates, and Smith Bull set- 45

tled in the Lyon neighborhood, lived there a short time, and left on account of Indian troubles in Royalton, Vt.
