" Shandaken is thirty-three miles from the river, and one thousand and sixty feet elevalion. It is at the centre of the Shandaken Valley. and the outlet of Bushnellville Clove. Passengers for West Kill. Lexington, and Jewett Ihights start from Shandakeu and pass through the Deep Hollow before reaching West Kill. Ice can be found in the notch in the middle of the summer. Shandalien is but three miles from the entrance of the Big Indian Volley, and conse- quently many parties start from here for the Slide Mountain, cleven miles distant, ne the ascent is more gradual than by any other route. This station is eight miles from the ' Suunuit,' or highest part of the mountain over which the railroad crosses. The carriage-road through the valley is on the eastern and northern side of the railroad, the Esopus Creek between them affording to the eye a cool and refreshing
sight. A moment after leaving Shaudaken the train passes a remark- able butternut-tree, which was seventy-five years old in ISTS, sol that year bore seventy five bushels of butterunts. An witemp: wi- mate to destroy it when u mere sapling by breaking the stein as 1 putting a flat stone over the roots; but it sprouted again, and to- hy the many farge branches-spread out alnost horizontally and very near the groun !-- show the effect of the weight on them when young. The diameter of the circular space covered by the branches is eighty- four feet.
" Big Indian is thirty-six miles from Rondout, and one thousand two hundred and nine feet above the Hudson. A lattice-work bridze crosses the Esopus a short way beyond the station, from which a pre- turesque view up the Big Indian Valley is obtained. To the right ?: the Balsam Mountain, showing a part of the ' Lost Clove ;' and four miles up the valley is a pyramidal peak seen beyond and abore a grovo of pines, the latter forming the centre aud foreground of the picture.
" Pine Hill-thirty- nine miles from Roundlout, and sixteen bu Ire 1 and sixty feet elevation-is three miles from Big Indian, and (w) miles from the highest point over which the railroad crosses. l'or a distance of five miles frosu Big Indian the grade is one hundred an I forty-five feet to the mile.
" As the train ascends on the side of the mountain and approaches l'ine Hill Station, a very fine view is obtained of the upper end of the Shandaken Valley.
" The large and attractive-looking house, surrounded by trees and shrubbery, seen below nud across the valley, is the well-known Guigru Hlouse, half a mile from Pine Hill Station.
"The village of Pine Hill next comes in sight, just below the station. An hour's walk to ' Suiumit Hill' enables one to obtain a most chars - ing view of mountain and valley. This is a favorite resort of the sumner boarders of Pine Hill, Griffin's Corners, and Big Indian. The top of the hill is cleared, and from picturesque ledges on the northern side one overlooks the well-cultivated farms of the town of Halrott. sees the village of Griffin's Corners, the line of railway from the ' Sute- miit' to Griffin's Corners and beyond, to the curve approaching Ark- ville, above which, to the right, are the fine rolling hills formning the divide between the town of Haleott. Greene Co., and the Datavia hill Valley, in Delaware County.
" Looking down the Shandaken Valley, the village of Pine Hill xp- pears at the base of Sumumit Ilill, and the steep grade of the raitrea ! is conspicuous, particularly if a train happens to pass either way a: the time.
"Over Pine llill, at a distance of twelve miles, is seen the Shi. Mountain ; the prominent peak at the left of it, nine miles distant. i. Panther Mountain. The near prominent peak, just over the railroad, is the Balsam Mountain.
"The Summit Station is eighteen hundre land eighty-six feet elt v.a- tion above tide-water, and forty-one miles from Roudout,-the high -: point between the Hudson River and Stamford over which the ears { ass. Between this and Pine Hill is a most graceful curve in the roadl. kort as ' The Horseshoe.' From the Summit it is down grade to and ja -: Griffin's Corners to Aikville Station."
XI -- INDUSTRIAL PURSUITS.
The agriculture of Shandaken is limited. There are a few farms along the valley of the Esopus Creek that have a fair amount of arable lands. Others still have pasture lands on the slopes of the hills favorable for keeping a smaa amount of stock. The soil in the valleys is a clay an i sandy loam. The principal branches of business for muty years were lumbering. shingle-making, and tanning. Wir. the cutting away of the forests these have largely declined. or are carried on only to a limited extent. In qut ... hemlock-trees for the bark used in tanning, the thuber tra- left tu rot in the mountains. Untold millions of fot wasti where it fell. With no railroad, and navigable waters - distant, it was worthless for market purposes. The ;-; ing of the railroad a few years ago made another 1 ..... profitable, -that of quarrying stene for flagging 4: 14 building purposes. Several quarries have been opened

LAChichester
The family of Chichester came from Wales, and settled at an carly day in Greene Co., N. Y. His father, Samuel, born in Cairo, N. Y., in 1801, was a carpenter aud joiner by trade, and upon reaching his majority had charge of the building of the Catskill Mountain House on its present site, a part of which is standing in 1880. In 1835 he built a factory in Hunter, Greene Co., for the manufac- ture of wood- and cane-seat chairs, and was the first man to use machinery in their construction in the State of New York. He employed some forty men in his manufactory, and continued in business there until 1844, when he went to Poughkeepsie, N. Y., where he built a chair-manufac- tory, and was in business alone until 1853, when he asso- ciated with him his two sons, Lemuel A. and Franklin Chi- chester, and Sylvester Andrews, under the firm-name of ] .. A. Chichester & Co. This firm did a large business, making sale of their goods largely through their warehouse in New York, which was in charge of Samuel Chichester. The firm dissolved partnership in 1857, but Samnel Chi- chester continued in charge of the warehouse in New York until 1870, and died in 1873.
Lemuel A. Chichester, son of Samuel and Susan (An- drus) Chichester, born in Hunter, Greene Co., Jan. 30, 1831, was fourtl: in a family of teu sons, eight of whom are living. He received ouly a comuion-school education. At the age of fifteen he entered his father's factory as an employee. At the age of eighteen he became foreman of the business, which position he retained until the or- gauization of the firm of 1. A. Chichester & Co. After the dissolution of this firm, he remained in Poughkeepsie in business until the spring of 1863, when he went to
Shandaken for the purpose of supplying material for the use of the Poughkeepsie factory. The factory being burned in the fall of 1863, Mr. Chichester the same year formed a partnership with Mr. Partridge (Chichester & Partridge), built a manufactory of one hundred feet in length in Shan- daken, and began the manufacture of cane- and wood-seat chairs. In 1871, Mr. Chichester purchased his partner's interest in the business, sinee which time he has continued the business alone. Mr. Chichester is among the most en- terprising men in Ulster County. He has enlarged his manufactory to four hundred and sixty-four feet in length, and keeps in constant employ some three hundred men and women.
Ilis trade extends not only to the leading inarkets in this country, but reaches Europe, South America, and the most important markets of the world. His prodnets are shipped direct from the manufactory to his customers in the various markets. Ilis business aggregates three thousand six hun- dred chairs and some nine hundred rocking-cradles per weck. He owns a large tract of some seven thousand seven hundred acres, situated in the towns of Hunter and Lesing- ton, Greene Co., and in Shandaken and Woodstock, Ulster Co., besides giving employment to some twenty-five saw- mills, located on various streams in the vicinity of his manu- factory.
lle is identified with the Republican party. He married Emeline B., daughter of Washington Davids, of Pough- keepsie.
They have four sons : George D. (supervisor of the town of Shandaken in 1850 and bookkeeper for his father), Samuel, Henry, and Oscar.

the shipments attain a magnitude of considerable impor- tance.
MILLS, TANNERIES, ETC.
Near the head-waters of the Esopus Creek, above Big Indian Hollow, a saw-mill was erected about twenty years ago by D. C. Dutcher. In later years it has been owned by T. C. Wey. Near the mouth of the Elk Kill, a small branch of the Esopus, there is at the present time the saw- mill of J. Burnham. In the same neighborhood is an- other saw-mill, owned by Thomas Brimmer. On Birch Creek, at Pine Hill, there are the saw- and turning-works of John Loomis. An early tannery was established at Pine Ilill. A chair-factory was carried on at Pine Hill for some years.
Below Pine Hill, at the point known as Smithville, was a large tannery managed for many years by Isaac Smith. Earlier than that it had been run by a firm. There is also a saw-quill there at the present time, operated by Marsh & Mulnix. It stands on the site of a much earlier one.
Another site of a large tannery was near Big Indian Depot, now owned by T. C. Wey. Also run by the same water-power at Big Indiau are the saw-mill and turning- works of T. C. Wey.
At Bushnellville, so called, near the line of Greene County, there was formerly a bedstead-factory by C. H. Hardy. Earlier still it was run by Charles Floyd. There was also located at that point one of the former taunerics of the town carried on by A. Bushnell. There was also a chair-factory started twenty-five years ago or more by Charles Floyd. Mr. Bushnell also had a saw-mill.
Below a short distance was an old saw-mill, opposite the residence of I. Waterman, mostly abandoned at the present time. A short distance below, on the same stream, Henry La Moree has a cedar- mill, saw-mill, and grist-mill. These are quite old, having been erected forty or fifty years ago. Mr. Whitney's operations at. Shandaken Centre have been noted in connection with that village, and also the business of Fox Hollow in the notice of that station. Below Fox Hollow is the bed-bottom factory of Wendell & Wright.
At the junction of the Woodland Valley Creek with the Esopus was an old tannery known as Simpson's. Up the Woodiand Valley a mile and a half was a tannery, changed in late years to a eut barrel-factory by 11. D. H. Snyder. Loami Lord has a saw-mill in this valley, and also Beach & Woodworth. On the Esopus, below I'Menicia a mile or so, is an old saw-mill, and Charles Winne now has a saw- miill and turning-works.
The business established at Chichesterville is one of the most important in town, In the spring of 1863, Mr. L. A. Chichester came to Shandaken to secure stock for a chair-factory in which he was interested. The factory was located at Poughkeepsie, and was destroyed by fire the same year: Mr. Chichester then came to Shanduiken, and, associating with himself Mr. Partridge, the firin built a fac- tory one hundred feet in length for the manufacture of cane- and wood-seat chairs. The firm dissolved in 1871, and Mr. Chichester became sole owner, and continues so at the present time. The buildings have been enlarged to four hundred and sixty four feet in length. The average production may be stated at 3600 chairs and 900 rocking-
-
eradles per week. About 125 hands are employed, and a large number of families are supplied with work at their houses.

XII .- MILITARY.
This town contained ouly here and there a settler at the close of the Revolution, and did not share in that struggle as an organized commmmity. The following persons served in the war of 1812: Cornelius Winne, Christian Winne, Samuel Carman, Peter Crispell, Frederick Case, Andrew De Witt, William Frasier, Paul Frasier, Jacob Longyear, Samuel Smith, Tobias Snyder, David Van Buskirk, John Van Wagener, Smith Wright.
WAR OF 1861-65.
It was reserved for the crisis of 1861 to evoke the pa- triotism of this people, and to summon forth scores of their hardy sons for the defense of the Union. It must ever be the one great event in the history of Shaudaken, as in that of a thousand other similar rural communities, that in the war of 1861 nearly 250 of the actual citizens.of the town joined the Union army, and that 50 to 75 more were fur- nished as recruits and substitutes hired abroad. There is a volume of history even in this mountain town that must remain unwritten,-a volume whose chapters might be fur- nished from the firesides where there are vacant chairs, or from the walls where gleam the arms onee borne by sons and brothers upon the battle fiell. True stories of patriotism are abundant here. One family can tell of three sons in the army at once, arother of two twin-brothers enlisting at the same time, and the citizen can tell of having three brothers and three brothers-in-law in the Union army, another citizen having five sons enlist, and two losing their lives.
Among the official proceedings there were two special town-meetings. The first one was held Dec. 26, 18G3. It

was called by a committee consisting of the supervisor, Isaac W. Longyear, James A. Simpson, and HI. D. H. Snyder. Thomas C. Wey was called to the chair, and Ira D. Chatfield appointed secretary. On motion, it was re- solved to raise a town bounty of $25, to be paid to the volunteers in addition to the national, State, and county bounties to which they were then entitled. Another meet- ing was held Sept. 17, 1864, at the house of Peter Crispell. Col. H. D. H. Snyder was chairman, and the town clerk, H. Griffiths, was secretary. A bounty of $200 was voted to every man until the quota should be filled. Each per- son liable to draft was invited by vote to subscribe $50 to a fund, to be divided equally among those who should volunteer, furnish substitutes, or be drafted. A war com- mittee was appointed, consisting of Col. Snyder, N. William Bench, and William D. Grithin, who were to see that bonds were issued to caeh volunteer in due form for the $200, payable in five equal installments from the 1st of March, 1865, with interest. They were further charged to receive and disburse equitably the subscription above invited, and generally to look after the interests of the men who should volunteer, furnish substitutes, or be drafted. Col. Snyder was made chairman of the committee. The expenses of the committee were ordered to be audited and paid, and they were authorized to employ, at a reasonable compensa- tion, an agent to assist in filling the quota.
The following list of soldiers who went into the army for and from this town is prepared from the records in the office of the town clerk, from the reports of the census enumerators of 1865, and from the printed muster-in rolls of the State :
