PREFACE.


T THERE are few persons who, in reading this book, will not join with the author in wishing it bad been executed carlier. "The original records of settlement are lost, and those who first benved the trials of the wilderness are now all dead, without transmitting their recollections to a younger and more enrious generation. Who were the original pioneers, what their motives for coming here, why the local names were given as they are, who the families were which were left behind, and by what low steps an unbroken wilderness was transformed into a peaceful and highly cultivated agricultural region, looking to the eye longer settled than the neighborhood of Plymouth, in Massachusetts, or Jamestown, in Virginia, can never be fully told. We have, fortunately, been able to obtain a portion of the rucollec- tions of the older inhabitants in the manuscripts of James McBride, and have been assisted by the Letters and memorands of a few others, but the greater portion of the history of the earlier part of this century and of the last decade of the eighteenth century, is lost beyond recovery. No art known to the writer has been able to charm it within his reach, and no succeeding anzalist will be able to supply the mies- ing links. Bogen twenty years age, the fathers of each hamlet might have been consulted ; many of the first buildings were preserved, and the printed and written documents to be consulted were more numer- oud. The causes which render this work to that extent incomplete, are operating in every county in Ohio. The West is passing on to that stage in which there is no recovery of the past, and our heroes. as noble as these mentioned by Winslow, Winthrop, or Sinith, are lost to the contemplation of those who in future days will desire to know what manner of men they were, and how they mado the bogimings of our commonwealth.


Much, however, has been retainel here by pious hands that other localities did not Lare. The origin of Cincinnati or of Lexington will never be mole better known than they of Hamthon. At an age when antiquaries were uncommon, and few facilities were afforded of pureuing their Investigations, Jantes MeBride was gathering from the recollections of those who preceded him accounts of their adventures with the Indians, in Wayne's and St. Clair's anetes, and as settlers along the banks of the Miant. These narratives were minute and full; they were derived from contemporaries who had themselves been con- corned in thesc affairs. They were revised and comparal with other relations, and they wore set down with a desire to have nothing but the truth exhibited -- a quality care at any age of in any country, but for- tunately for us, the distinguishing feature of MeBride's mind. Next to these in value were the newsos- pers proserved by the daughters of C. K. Sa th, and those to be food in the auditor's office. Although the files are not complete, they afford a vast repertory of information, extending from 1200 down to the present day. In the records of the county, kept in the various public ofices, are doenments bearing 01 many phases of frontier life, and it is to these sources the historian must chicky resort. Few pamphlets of early times have been preserved, as the great collection which was made of these valuable sheet. in the first half of the century were sent to the paper-will, as is related in the body of this book. Conver. sations with those living have supplied the chief portion of the coatdeler of the book.


Prominent among those who base favored as with their advice and hely must be placed Mes. Lawina McBride Stembel daughter of the historien, who gave us permission to use any of the moment of

her father, and the Historical and Philosophical Society of Ohio, which is the custodian of these invalu- able annals of Butler County. Much assistance has been derived from Robert Clarke, the accomplished Libliophilist, in the indication of sources of knowledge, and for permission to make liberal extracts from a previously published work by Mr. McBride; and to John M. Newton, of the Mercantile Library, an en- thusiastic student of Ohio's local history, In Hamilton our chief acknowledgments are due to Major John M. Millikin and Dr. Cyrus Falconer, who have, with unwearied zeal, sought to place the editor in pos- session of their vast stores of information. To John W. Erwin our obligations are likewise deep. Gen- eral Ferdinand Van Derveer, Henry L. Morey, James E. Campbell, J. P. Maclean, Henry S. Earhart, Joshua Delaplane, and Ezra Potter have ench labored to make this work an authority, and our thanks are due to them. Mrs. Marcella S. Webb kindly placed at our disposal the rich and valuable collection made by her father; and the county officials, particularly Deputy Auditors Richard Brown and T. E. Crider, have spent much time in researches in our favor. In Middletown we must acknowledge the ser- vices rendered by John R. Shafor, Joseph Sutphin, and Francis J. Tytus; in Oxford, those of Dr. George W. Keely ; in Morgan, those of Evan Evans and Abner Francis, Jr .; and in Westchester, those of Major W. W. Elliott. Besides these, a host of friends have contributed in a lesser degree, but cach affording something valuable.


During a residence of more than a year in Butler County, the editor received the kindest assistance from all with whom he was brought in contact. He was freely lent many valuable books, and was aided in all ways; and he can not let this occasion go by without expressing his personal obligations.
