"The mound at the intersection of Third and Main Streets has attracted most attention, and is the only one that had any connection with the lines which have been described. It was about eight feet high, one hundred and twenty long, and sixty broad, of an oval figure with its diameter lying nearly in the direction of the cardinal points. It has been almost obliterated by the graduation of Main Street, and its construction is therefore well-known. Whatever it contained was deposited at a small distance beneath the stratum of loam which is common to the town.


" The first artificial layer was of gravel, considerably raised in the middle ; the next, composed of large pebbles, was convex and of an uniform thick- ness; the last consisted of loam and soil. These strata were entire and must have been formed after the deposits in the tumulus were completed.

HISTORY OF CINCINNATI.


Of the articles taken from thence many have been lost; but the following catalogue embraces the most curious :


" I. Pieces of jasper, rock crystal, granite and some other stones-cylin- drical at the extremities and swelled in the middle with an annular groove near one end.


" 2. A circular piece of cannel coal with a large opening in the center, as if for an axis, and a deep groove in the circumference suitable for a band. It has a number of small perforations, disposed in four equidistant lines, which run from the circumference towards the center.


"3. A smaller article of the same shape, with eight lines of perforations, but composed of argillaceous earth, well polished.


· " 4. A bone, ornamented with several carved lines, supposed to be hieroglyphical.


"5. A sculptured representation of the head and beak of a rapacious bird, perhaps an eagle


"6. A mass of lead ore (galena), lumps of which have been found in some other tumuli.


" 7. A quantity of isinglass (mica membranacea), plates of which have been discovered in and about other mounds.


"8. A small ovate piece of sheet copper, with two perforations.


"9. A larger oblong piece of the same metal, with longitudinal grooves and ridges.


"These articles are described in the fourth and fifth volumes of the ' American Philosophical Transactions,' by Governor Sargent and Judge Turner, and were supposed by Professor Barton to have been designed in part for ornament and in part for superstitious ceremonies. In addition to these I have since discovered in the same mound :


" 10. A number of beads or sections of small hollow cylinders, apparently of bone or shell.


"II. The teeth of a carnivorous animal, probably those of the bear.


" 12. Several large marine shells, belonging perhaps to the genus buc- cinum, cut in such a manner as to serve for domestic utensils, and nearly converted into the state of chalk.


" 14. Several copper articles, each consisting of two sets of circular con- cavo-convex plates, the interior one of each set connected with the other by

a hollow axis, around which had been wound a quantity of lint, the whole encompassed with the bones of a man's hand.


"Several other articles resembling this have been dug up in other parts of the town. They all appear to consist of pure copper covered with the green carbonate of that metal.


"After removing this incrustation of rust from two pieces, their specific gravities were found to be 7.545 and 7.857. Their hardness is about that of sheet copper of commerce. They are not engraven or embellished with characters of any kind.


" 15. Human bones. These were of different sizes; sometimes inclosed in rude coffins of stone, but oftener lying blended with the earth, generally surrounded by a portion of ashes and charcoal.


" The quantity of these bones, although much greater than that taken from the other mounds of the town, was smaller in proportion to what was expected, the whole tumulus not having contained perhaps more than twenty or thirty skeletons."


The description of these earthworks, given by Judge Jacob Burnet in his letters to the Historical Society of Ohio, page 35, differs in some par- ticulars from that of Dr. Drake, but is substantially the same. He says :


" When I first came here the town had advanced but very little from a state of nature (1796). The surface of the site on which it stands was un- disturbed, except where some rough houses and humble cabins had been erected to shelter its inhabitants.


" The works referred to were in a perfect state of preservation, though depressed in height by the natural causes which had operated on them for ages. Within the limits of the town as originally laid out there were two large circles, one near the eastern boundary and the other in a western direction, near the center of the plat. The former, though sufficiently distinct to be traced, was not as elevated or as perfect as the other.


"It was about the same diameter, and was uniform in its curvity. The circle near the center passed through the block which I owned, south of Fourth, and between Vine and Race Streets. It was an exact circle, about six hundred feet in diameter. The earth which composed it had been gradually washed down till its base had spread about twenty-five feet and its apex was reduced to about eight or ten feet above the plane of its base. On


4I

the north side, near Fifth Street, there was an aperture ten or twelve feet wide, and there might have been another which has escaped my memory.


"The arc within my enclosure, subtended by a chord of about three hundred feet, was preserved with care while it was in my possession.


" On that part of it I am confident there was no break or opening. These works were entirely on the upper level of the town plat, and did not approach the break of the hill nearer than four hundred feet. About one hundred and fifty rods west of the circle last spoken of stood a beautiful mound thirty-five or forty feet high, at Mound and Fifth Streets, constructed with great exactness, and standing on a base unusually small compared with its height. When the army, under the command of General Wayne, was encamped at this place in 1792-3, he had a sentry box on its top, which commanded an entire view of the plain. In the neighborhood of this structure two or three smaller ones were standing, which were found to con- tain human bones, as is the fact with regard to most of them. Besides these there was another of a medium size compared with the others, standing on the brow of the hill, about midway between the circles and in advance of them, in the direction of the river, about three or four hundred feet.


" By digging down and grading Main Street this structure was entirely removed many years ago. While that process was going on many articles which it contained were found; some, if not all of which, were probably deposited there after the country had been visited by. Europeans. Among them were marine shells, pieces of hard earthen ware, a small ivory image finely wrought of the Virgin Mary, holding an infant in her arms, which had been much mutilated ; also a small metallic instrument, complex in its con- struction, much corroded and decayed, and supposed by some to have been intended to ascertain the weight of small substances. The skeleton of a man was also found under its apex, a few feet below the surface, contained in what might be called a coffin, composed of flat stones so placed on all sides as to protect the body from the pressure of the earth. Other discoveries were made, which my memory does not retain with sufficient accuracy to enable me to describe them."

CHAPTER IX.


SURVEY MADE TO DISTRIBUTE DONATION LOTS-CONDITIONS ON WHICH DISTRIBUTED-AGREEMENT BETWEEN PARTIES-DRAWING MADE JANU- ARY 7, 1789-NAMES OF PERSONS WHO DREW LOTS.


N the 7th day of January, 1789, the survey had been sufficiently accomplished by Colonel Ludlow, to enable the proprietors to dis- tribute the thirty in and out lots to the first thirty settlers, when the following agreement was entered into between them and the proprietors, as recorded by Colonel Israel Ludlow, and as also found in the papers of Colonel Robert Patterson after his death :


CONDITIONS ON WHICH THE DONATION LOTS IN THE TOWN OF LOSANTIVILLE ARE HELD AND SETTLED.


The first thirty town and out-lots to so many of the most early adven- turers shall be given by the proprietors, Messrs. Denman, Patterson, and Ludlow, who for their part do agree to make a deed free, and clear of all charges and incumbrances, excepting that of surveying and deed- ing the same, so soon as a deed is procured from Congress by Judge Symmes.


The lot-holders, for their part, do agree to become actual settlers on the premises, plant and attend two crops successively, and not less than one acre shall be cultivated for each crop, and that within the term of two years each person receiving a donation lot or lots, shall build a house equal to twenty feet square, one story and a half high, with brick, stone, or clay chimney, which shall stand in front of their respective in-lots, and shall be put in tenantable repair within the term of two years from the date hereof. The above requisitions shall be minutely complied with under penalty of forfeiture, unless Indian depredations render it impracticable.


Done this seventh day of January, one thousand, seven hundred and eighty-nine. ISRAEL LUDLOW.


It will be observed that the above agreement is identical with the one issued at Limestone in December, with the exception, that instead of


43


HISTORY OF CINCINNATI.


Losantiburg, the town is called Losantiville, and instead of requiring that the houses shall be equal to twenty-five feet square, the last stipu- lates that each house shall be twenty feet square, and is signed by Israel Ludlow.


These stipulations having been agreed to by both parties, the drawing proceeded on the 7th day of January, 1789, the same date on which the agreement was made, and resulted as follows, as is shown by the following certificates, found among the papers of Colonel Robert Patterson, after his death, and also in the records of Colonel Ludlow.


The following names, with the numbers of lots thereunto annexed, are, according to the lottery, drawn for the first thirty settlers in the town of Losantiville, January 7, 1789, under the direction of Messrs. Patterson and Ludlow :

CHAPTER X.


LUDLOW SURVEYS AND LAYS OFF LOTS FROM BROADWAY TO WESTERN ROW, AND FROM RIVER TO NORTHERN ROW (SEVENTH STREET)-PIONEERS CLEAR LAND-LETTER OF MRS. REBECCA REEDER-SALE OF LOTS IN 1789 AND 1790.


N OTWITHSTANDING the earth was covered with snow and the weather became intensely cold, Colonel Ludlow and his assistants proceeded to complete the survey and platting of the town as soon as the distribution of the first thirty lots had been made, and finished it during the winter as far north as Northern Row (Seventh Street), and from Eastern Row (Broadway) to Western Row (Central Avenue), marking the course of the streets by blazing the trees. Whilst the surveyors were thus engaged, others of the pioneers were chopping down the beech, sugar and other . larger trees on the lower level from Walnut Street to Broadway.


The supply of provisions which they had brought with them was soon exhausted, and none were to be obtained except from the settlements in Kentucky, from sixty to a hundred miles distant up the Licking, or from Lexington. To procure them from these stations or settlements was exceed- ingly difficult, because the Licking River was frozen over or full of ice, preventing navigation with canoes, and to bring a sufficient supply from either place by land required pack horses, which were very scarce. Added to these difficulties everything was very high in price, and the purses of the first settlers were by no means plethoric with money. Subsistence must therefore be sought by some other means. Fortunately they were all familiar with the use of the rifle, and wild game, such as deer, bears and wild turkeys, was abundant in the forests around them, and buffalo and elk across the river in Kentucky.


Whilst the surveyors and woodchoppers were busy surveying and felling the forests, the hunters, with their rifles, procured provisions from the forests, and this furnished almost exclusively their subsistence during the winter and succeeding summer.

The wild game not only furnished food for these resolute men, but also clothing.

The situation is graphically described in a letter written to the Pioneer Association of Hamilton County in 1858 and still among the papers of that association, by Mrs. Rebecca Reeder, then residing at Pleasant Ridge.


Mrs. Reeder was the daughter of Francis Kennedy, who landed at Cin- cinnati on the 8th day of February, 1789, forty-one days after the landing of the first pioneers. She writes :


" My father, mother and seven children landed at Cincinnati on the 8th of February, 1789. The first persons we saw after landing were Mr. Mc- Millan and Mr. Israel Ludlow, one of the proprietors of the place. There were three little cabins here when we landed, where the surveyors and chain carriers lived. They had no floors in these cabins. There were three other women here beside my mother. Their names were Miss Dement, Mrs. Constance Zenes (afterward married to Mr. McMillan), Mrs. Pesthal, a German woman, and my mother, Mrs. Rebecca Kennedy, which made four women at that time. There were but two families that had small children; they were the German family and my father's family.


"Mr. Ludlow came down to our boat and invited my father and mother up to stay in their cabin until we could get one built, but my mother thought they could remain more comfortably with their small children in their boat. So we lived in our boat until the ice began to run, and then we were forced to contrive some other way to live. What few men there were here got together and knocked our boats up and built us a camp. We lived in our camp six weeks. Then my father built us a large cabin, which was the first one large enough for a family to live in. We took the boards of our camp and made floors in our house.


" Father intended to have built our house on the corner of Walnut and Water Streets, but not knowing exactly where the streets were, he built our house right in the middle of Water Street. The streets were laid out, but the woods were so very thick, and the streets were not opened, so it was impossible to tell where the streets would be.


" At the time we landed the army was stationed at North Bend. The

HISTORY OF CINCINNATI.


army was in a suffering condition from the want of bread. They heard that we landed with a considerable quantity of flour and corn meal. There were several soldiers sent up to my father to get a few barrels of flour for the benefit of the army. Father told them he did not bring flour here to sell, but to save his children's lives here in the forest. They had their guns with them. and said they were sent to take it by force, if he would not give it up. My father took down his gun, and told them he would stand in defense of his flour. They then went back to North Bend, and Judge Symmes, who lived near the fort, then wrote my father a letter, and told him to roll the soldiers out as many barrels of flour as they required, and he would see it replaced. My father then gave them as much as they wanted, and it was replaced in due time.


" The first summer after we came here, which was in 1789, the people suffered very much from want of bread, and as for meat, they had none at all only as they killed it in the woods. That was all they had to eat."


When spring opened more cabins were built, principally between Walnut Street and Broadway, and the population had increased by the Ist of May to eleven families, besides twenty-four unmarried men, all dwelling in twenty log cabins, and nearly all of the large trees had been cut down between Walnut Street and Broadway, south of Second Street, although the logs, or many of them, remained on the ground for several years afterward, as is well remembered by some of the older citizens still living.


Colonel Ludlow had by this time (May, 1789) about completed the sur- vey. Lots were offered for sale, and disposed of during the years 1789 and 1790 as follows, to the persons named, and for the prices set opposite each name ; as is shown by the record of Colonel Ludlow, published by Robert Clark, Esq , in 1870, to whom we are under obligations for a copy. Price in pounds, shillings, and pence.
