EARLY SETTLERS' ASSOCIATION.
than the rule of three and he was considered a smart boy who could master that.
This school on Giddings avenue had twenty-five or thirty scholars. There was no district. Everybody came. The children who came the great- est distance were from a house on what is now the Weddell property. We had school from 9 o'clock in the morning to 4 in the afternoon, six days in the week. In those days the master never spoiled the boys by sparing the rod. Oh, no! He kept four or five rods seasoning amongst the logs and always carried a ruler eighteen inches long in his hand to touch up unruly boys. At Christmas we planned to bar out the teacher, nor did he get in until he furnished a pint of whiskey.
As far as I know, I am the only living representative of this school for the winters of 1822 and '23. This school-house was built later than the other on Fairmount street, which stood on the lot now occupied by the late W. E. Preston. As this did not belong to the district which I have chosen I shall only mention it.
In this school-house on Giddings were held the first religious services that were held in this part of Cleveland. The first preachers were John Crawford, Ira Eddy and Billings O. Plimpton. They are all dead but Billings O. Plimpton, who is now living at an advanced age on the West side. He was the first preacher I ever heard. This was in 1820. He had been a circuit rider from 1817. These three men were on a circuit which reached from Lake Erie to the Ohio river, until the Cuyahoga circuit was formed in 1818. This new circuit took in about all the Western Reserve. The preachers appointed for it were Ezra Booth and Dennis Garland. In that early day all the preachers were Methodists. In 1820 the first Methodist class was formed at Euclid. Dennis Cooper and wife, Ruel House and wife, and three or four others formed the class and met for years in private houses.
The first camp meeting was held at Newburgh by Elder Swazzy in 1802. In 1827 the first class was formed at Doan's corners. The members were Aaron Hubbard and wife, Israel Hubbard (who is still living)and wife, James Sawtell and wife, Ellen Colier, William Mitchell, Samuel Rand, Harriet Slate, Oliver Marshall, Annie Cozad, Philena Gould, Timothy Hurlbut and Nathan Smith. The services were held in pri-

vate houses until after the stone school-house was built in what is now the old burying ground, after which they were held there.
The first Methodist house of worship at the east end was built about 1840. In the early days we had preaching once in three months, some- times oftener if it happened that a circuit rider could get over his ground a little earlier. We hailed his coming with delight.
In 1818 there were only fourteen houses between Fairmount street and Erie. Euclid avenue was called the the great road to Erie. Fairmount street was known as the road to Newburgh. Newburgh was at that . time of more importance than Cleveland to the early settlers, because it had a gristmill, a sawmill, carding-machine and fulling-mill. Below Erie street a village had been incorporated in 1814. Up to 1825 the entire population east of the Cuyahoga river amounted to but five hundred persons.
From Fairmount street to Erie street, in 1820, there was not a single road leading either north or south from Euclid. This road was very sandy. There were plenty of stumps in it and trees still growing. It was so narrow in places that it was impossible for teams to pass each other. Many of the stumps were nor removed till 1840. A man named Cole was riding along one windy night, when a limb from a tree in the road fell upon him, breaking his leg, and he also received other injuries which resulted in his death.
We will commence on the north side of Euclid avenue and mention each house as it stood in 1818, and then go back to our starting-point and take the south side in the same way. We must bear in mind that this time was sixty-seven years ago, more than the ordinary limit of most men's lives, and yet a few have been spared to speak of that period when the ax of the pioneer was busy with clearings which were eventually to to be adorned with a fair and prosperous city.
The house nearest Fairmount street, on the north side, was a two-story tavern, owned by Job Doan, and kept by Seth C. Baldwin. The sec- ond was a two-story frame, where P. H. Babcock now lives. This was owned by Shadrach Husted, and was burned down in 1822. The third was a log house, where Mrs. Washington lived. This was occupied by James Cole, who owned a small farm there. The fourth house was the one-and a-half story frame of Cardy Parker, where Tilden avenue reaches

Euclid. The fifth was the log house of John Bunce, on the corner of Madison and Euclid.
The sixth house was where Harriet Spangler now lives, owned by a man named Tillison, who was the first settler on this Buffalo road. The seventh was a log house, which stood where the east Cleveland car barns now stand. This was owned by William Temple, whose farm was the first of the ten-acre lots into which a part of the city was divided in those early days. The eighth was a one-story frame, which stood on the va- cant lot of H. P. Weddell, and was owned by John Norton, a shoe- maker. There was no other house to Erie street, but a long stretch of woods.
To go back on the south side, beginning again at Fairmount street, the first house was a one-story frame, which stood back from the road near Doan street. It was owned by Judge H. Strong, who owned at one time nearly all the land at the east end. The second house was a one- story frame, which stood where the Congregational church now stands. This belonged to Ahimaaz Sherman, sr. The third house, a log, stood right at the corner of Lincoln avenue and Euclid. This was owned by Cardy Parker. My father moved there in August, in 1818, and we lived there one year without either doors or windows. The fourth was a block house, so called because the logs were hewed on both sides. This was the house to which all the people fled when, soon after Perry's victory on the lake, they saw a vessel come into the river from which troops dis- embarked. They supposed that the British had come to pillage the town. When word came that these were Perry's victorious men return- ed, the joy of these frightened people even exceeded their fear. This block house was owned by Walter Strong, and was situated near where Mr. Thomas now lives.
The fifth house was a frame on the Bolton place, owned by John Rid- dle. The sixth was a log house which stood at the corner of Kennard, and was owned by Smith Towner. Nathan Truscott was once tending a coal pit for my father, near Garden street, at night. Thinking that everything was safe, he started home across the swamp about I o'clock. On the way wolves attacked him. The dog showed fight and the wolves killed and ate him. This gave Truscott the start, but the wolves were soon on the scent again. He remembered the log house, which was
64

empty at the time, and made for it. The wolves were just behind him. An old ladder happened to be left in the house. With this he was soon out of their reach upon the beams. They were inside and he reached down and closed the door. When the morning dawned he tore some of the split shingles off the roof and escaped. He got some of the neighbors and they soon killed the wolves. After this house there was no clearing to Erie street.
The Indians had cut down most of the smaller trees for firewood on both sides of the road, but the great forest trees and underbrush remained.
If you have noticed, there were only fourteen houses on both sides of this great Buffalo road in 1818. There were no changes until 1820, when several families moved in, amongst whom were Samuel Spangler, Rufus Dunham, John O. Willard, Amos Haloday, Jehial Triscott and Nathan Triscott.
In some later paper I shall hope to give some idea of the manner of life in that early time as I remember it, of the hardships and pleasures of pioneer life, and to show how the sturdy principles of New England became the cornerstone upon which the honor and integrity of the Western Reserve was founded.
AN INTERESTING RELIC.
Last week the Western Reserve Historical society received from Mr. J. W. Gillies, of the United States Express company, an interesting relic consisting of a part of a wheel of the original carriage of the now famous gun, the "Betsey Croghan." The "Betesy Croghan" is a sixty- pound cast iron gun which was brought into notice by the effective use that was made of it at Fort Stephenson on the thirty-first of July, 1813. Fort Stephenson was situated on the left bank of the Sandusky river, within sight of the present city of Fremont. It was commanded by Major Croghan, only tweny-one years of age, who had under him but one hundred and sixty men, most of whom were raw recruits. On the thirty-first of July, 1813, the fort was surrounded by British to the number of five hundred under General Proctor, and eight hundred

Indians under Tecumseh. A surrender was demanded of Croghan, who peremptorily refused. The six-pounder was the only piece of artillery in the fort. It was changed from port hole to port hole to make the British believe that there were several pieces in the fort. An assault was made upon the fort on the evening of August 2, by the combined British forces. The six-pounder loaded with shot and shell poured destruction into their ranks and the attacking forces finally retreated with a loss of one hundred and sixty killed and wounded, while the besieged escaped with but one killed. After its effective work the gun was christened the " Betsey Croghan." It was never overhauled until about four weeks ago, when it was repainted and decaying parts of its carriage were replaced preparatory to being placed at the base of the soldier's monument, where it will now remain. ·
SLAVES FOR SALE.
It hardly seems possible at this time that a little more than one hundred years ago slaves were advertised to be sold in the public marts of Puritanic Connecticut. Yet such was the case. A copy of the Connecticut Gazette, dated October 1, 1757, was recently brought to light by a resident of Woodbury, Ct., in which appeared three advertise- ments of slaves for sale.
