FRANKLIN COUNTY.
Mr. McCoy was continued President by reelections until he resigned his seat in July, 1853. He had been a member of the Council from the first election in 1816, and that body honored his long and faithful services by procuring and preserving in their chamber his well drawn and neatly framed likeness. They also honored Doctor Goodale, for his donation of the park grounds, with an elegant, full-sized portrait, handsomely framed, which also hangs in the Council chamber.
William T. Martin was continued Recorder till 1839, then Wiliam Miner till 1843, and then Joseph Ridg- way, jr., till 1850, when the office was abolished. In 1840, the Council appointed B. F. Martin City Clerk, by whom the business of Recorder was afterward per- formed, and he was continued by reappointments until 1857, since when Joseph Dowdall has been City Clerk.
The successive Treasurers since 1834, have been William Long till 1836, then Jonathan Neereamer till 1838, then John Greenwood till 1843, and since then Wm. Armstrong until the present time, 1858.
In 1851, the office of City Solicitor was created, and J. L. Bates appointed, who resigned in January, 1852. In April, 1852, Henry C. Noble was appointed. In 1853, Emory Butler, who resigned in April, 1854, in conse- quence of declining health, since which James A. Wil- cox has filled the place.

By an ordinance passed by the Council, on the 18th of February, 1846, the city was divided into five wards. All north of Gay strect, to constitute the first ward; all between Gay and State streets, the second ; all between State and Rich streets, the third; all between Rich and Mound streets, the fourth; and all south of Mound street, the fifth. Each ward to be represented by three members in Council.
* Appointed by the Council in place of Brooks, resigned. t Appointed by the Council in place of Miller, resigned. # The office, since 1857, has been styled Civil Engineer.
445
FRANKLIN COUNTY.
But subsequently, by an act of the Legislature, pass- ed May 3, 1852, for the organization of cities, etc., the number of Councilmen for each ward is reduced to two. The fifty-ninth section of that act provides, that on the first Monday in April, 1853, there shall be two members elected in each ward, one of whom shall serve two years, the other one year. And the last section of the same act provides, that the officers in office at the passage of the act, should hold out their respective terms.
It now became a question whether to hold an election or not. The term of one of the members in each ward expired at this time, which would reduce the Council to the number required, without any election ; but it would not be in accordance with the letter of the above provis- ion, requiring an election at this particular time ; and the members not being disposed to resign their places, the two members in each ward, whose terms did not expire, held on, and the Council ordered an election for two additional members. So that the first year under the new charter, each ward had four members instead of two; the second year three members, and the third year (1855) the Council was reduced to the number required - two in each ward.
The large Council, in 1853, was composed of the fol- lowing gentlemen, to wit :
