Samuel W. Pratt.


The Pratt family were among the very earliest settlers of Buffalo. Capt. Samuel Pratt and his family having come from Vermont and settled at Buffalo, then called New Amsterdam, in 1804. When they arrived in Buffalo, Main street was not even fenced in. It was filled with stumps and only here and there on the present site of Buffalo were patches of clearing. Altogether there was not a dozen houses, and only a few of these were framcd. There was merely a path or wagon track down the river to Black Rock. The terrace was an open spot covered with green turf, and was a favorite sporting place and play ground of the Indians. On this spot soon after coming. he built his log cabin. Captain Pratt and several of his sons became conversant with the Indian language. The Indians considered them their true friends and it is said Red Jacket frequently came to counsel with Pascal P. Pratt, a son of Cap- tain Pratt. After coming to Buffalo the Pratts became at once prominently identified with the interests of the place and have continued so up to the present time ; having occupied various positions of public trust. Hiram Pratt, son of Captain Pratt, was mayor at one time and Samuel F. Pratt, a grandson of Cap- tain Pratt, was the first president of the Female Academy. Ben- jamin Wells Pratt, son of Captain Pratt, and father of Samuel W. Pratt, was born Oct. 8, 1796. in Vermont, and was consc- quently eight years of age when his father with his family moved to Buffalo. At the time Buffalo was burned, he was at Brattleboro, Vt., pursuing a couse of studies preparatory to entering college. The embarrassment which the burning of the embryo city brought upon the Pratt family, obliged him to give up his cherished plan of self-improvement. He returned to Buffalo where he married Fanny Fletcher in 1824, the year following he took up his residence on a farm in Collins, where he lived till his death, aged seventy-one years. He had five children viz. : . Samuel W., married Eunice E. Lord ; Fred,

Mrs. Smith says : I was four years of age when we moved into our unfinished 18 × 24 log house ; we could look up through the opening left in the slab roof for the escape of smoke, and see the tree tops, and for some years mother would not allow us to go out of sight of the house for fear of bears, which infested the woods and sometimes destroyed sheep, &c. Of course improvements were made ; the floor, which had lain loose, was fastened down with wooden pins; a chimney built of stone as far as the first story, and from that up of split hemlock sticks, and plastered inside with clay ; in time the slab roof was replaced by shin- gles, and the woods gave way to cleared fields.


The forests also abounded with deer, and the Indians used to come and build their rude camps near us, to hunt, and they often came to ask for salt or some trifle which they did not have. Sometimes they brought whole families, and the Indian boy's would slide down hill in our fields on sleds made of a strip of basswood bark turned smooth side down, tapered at one end, to which a string of the bark was attached and held
