James Little was born in Westmoreland county, Pennsylva- nia. Desember 4. 1793, came with his parents to Maysville where they landed May 19. 1803, and soon after settled in Aberdeen, i'sown county, Ohio.
llis father. Thomas Little, was born in county Tyrone, Ire- nd, and when a young man came to America. Ile came to this -Intry just at the commencement of the Revolution, landed at 'biladelphia and the next day enlisted in the Continental army ad served throughout the war. lle was at the battle of Mon- mouth and Cowpens, as well as many other places. Capt. Lit- tle's mother, whose maiden name was Mary Nieper, came with her mother from Ireland to this country, in the ship Prosperity, and landed at New Castle, Del. This was the last vessel that ar- rived before the commencement of hostilities in the llevolutionary war.
After the close of the war, Thomas Little came to Ohio, first to Aberdeen, then to Adams county. He also served in the war of 1812.
A son Hamed James, now everywhere known as "Capt. Lit- the" seems to have been a "natural born" boatman. He, from his earliest years, took to the water as naturally as a duck docs. 'lle commenced his career as a boatmen as soon as he was large enough to " paddle" a canoe. Fron the canoe he went to the flat- boat, then the keel boat and to the steamboat, atarting as a com- mon land and working his way up to Captain, in whileh capacity he has spent a good part of his life.
Ile remembers all the early steamboats that ran en the Ohio. The first one that ever came down the river, was dis "New Or- leans," built at Pittsburgh in 1811. It passed Maneuester in De- member of that year. A crowd of people lined the banks of the river to see it pass. This was the year in which so many earth- quakes ocenrred in the southwest and which were visibly tele even In this region. Capt. Little was on a keel boat on the river zboat three miles above Maysville when one ocenrred. Ii was on Mon- clay morning a little before day, and was so severs tais chimnoys
of how es about Manchester were toppled down and fences what- tered. These shocks continued at irregular periods for many months.
The nest boat was the Etna, also built ut Pittsburgh, In 1812; theu the Vestylus, the next year. Theso boats all plied on the western rivers and never came back again.
Tho Dispatch, built on the Monougahula, near Bridgeport, wns tho next. This was the first boat that ever returned up the Ohio. It was built by James Tumbleston and his son-in-law, and commanded by Elderry Perry. On an upward trip from Now Orleans, it sank at the falls nt Louisville, and was lost.
The Buffalo on an up trip from New Orleans lost all Its pas- sengers by yellow fever.
Tho first steamboat built at Manchester wus tho Tuekaho In 18:15. It was built by John MeNary, for Hanco Ireland.
The next was the' " Casket" also built by the smuo person, in 1836. tor Jolin Moore, of Ripley.
Capt. Little was in the war of 1812, walked over the ground of Dudley's defeat the next day after the battle ; was at the siege of Fort Meigs in 1813 and was at the battle of the Thames which resulled in the utter defeat of the British and Indians, by the forces under Gen. Harrison.
