"Lute " Buck, son of Silas Buck, was constable for nine years, and has been auctioneer for thirty-five years, and has had as high as twenty-nine sales in thirty working days, and is employed all up and down the Susquehanna Valley from Bainbridge to Plym-

outh, a distance of one hundred miles. He has probably sold more goods at auction than any other man in the county. His gift of language, usually deemed appropriate in an auctioneer, is something re- markable, and he is not wholly divorced from the habit of speech on other occasions.

Captain Jonathan Newman, a soldier of the Revo- lution, came from Connecticut to Pittston, and from there, in 1795, to Great Bend, where he bought, of Mina Du Bois, land lying north of the river, above the ferry. He was a man of considerable prominence in local affairs. Late in life he removed to Bridgewater, near Heart Lake, and died there. Two of his daughters lived on this latter place. His son James remained on the Great Bend homestead and married Esther Buck. He lived to be eighty-four years of age. His children were David, who lived on part of the homestead ; Adelia, wife of Jacob Hasbrouck ; Nancy; Betsey, the only one now living, wife of Thos. D. Hayes, a farmer of Great Bend ; and Galon, who succeeded to the homestead and became a man of prominence in the community. His widow resides there now, and his son William is a merchant in Great Bend. Jonathan Newman's second son, Brown, raised a family, but they are all gone now.

Asa Bennett came to Great Bend as early as 1807, and he was a blacksmith in the village when it was called Lodersville. He died on a farın near McKin- ney's mills, aged seventy-six. His son Asa moved west. Of his seven daughters, three married and resided in the vicinity. William C. Carl, who mar- ried Mary, purchased the Dimon farm in 1865. His son, James F. Carl, owns the property now. Ange- line Bennett was the wife of Horace E. Townsend, of Franklin ; Ann Eliza was the wife of Harvey Keech, who resided near the Mckinney mills, and raised a family of four boys and two girls; Sylvia was the wife of Frederick Aldrich, who resided near the Mckinney mills for many years, and finally removed to Apolacon.

Sheldon M. Bronson came from Connecticut and bought a farm, and lived here about fifteen years and then returned. Truman Baldwin came in 1844, and bought the Truman Hatch farm ; George and William resided here. George is a lawyer and William is a preacher. Hermon lives in New York. John Hamn- lin came in 1845, and purchased a lot and started a blacksmith and wagon-shop. He died in 1882, aged eighty-five. His sons, Philo P. and George, reside on the homestead lot, and continue the black- smith business. Christopher C. resides here, and Charles S. runs a bus and keeps a livery stable.

Asa Eddy was appointed justice of the peace by the Governor when this county was a part of Luzerne. He held office until one of his brother-infidels quar- reled with him and reported him to the Governor who took away his commission. Asahel Avery was appointed justice in 1812, and died shortly after. Charles Dimon was appointed March 2, 1813, and vol-

untarily resigned April 23, 1823. About nine years afterward the people, without his knowledge, sent a petition to the Governor to have him reappointed, which was done; his second commission bearing date December 3, 1832. He held the office until it became elective, in 1840, and was twice elected under the amended constitution. His old dockets show that the people were more given to litigation about small matters at that time than they are now. Some of the most prominent men had suits brought against them for as small amounts as ten and fifteen dollars.

Isaac Reckhow, son of John Reckhow, who settled here in 1814, became justice of the peace after Dimon, and held the office in the township for some time, and after the borough of Great Bend was incorporated he removed into the borough and held the office there. Lyman Trowbridge and others held the office in the township. Isaac Reckhow and William A. Snow were justices when the borough was first organized. Since then J. H. Dusenbury, Freeborn Churchill, Chas. E. Baldwin, Chas. S. Gilbert; since 1878, Messrs. Pile, McNamara and J. W. Dusenbury have held the office. C. M. Simmons has been the principal justice across the river at Hallstead.

PHYSICIANS .- Rev. Daniel Buck may have prac- tised medicine at Great Bend, but Dr. Fobes was here in 1791, or before, and was probably the first re- gular physician in Susquehanna County. Noah Kin- caid and Charles Frazer, who afterwards removed to Montrose, were here prior to 1807. Dr. Jonathan Gray advertised his services "for twenty-five cents for every mile, and under; one dollar for every six hours' continuance with a patient sick of a fever ; all shall be done gratis for any person who is less capable to pay than the practitioner is to do without it." In August, 1807, Dr. Eleazer Parker, of Con- necticut, came to Grand Bend and practiced success- fully two and one-half years ; he was also appointed postmaster, February 1, 1808. Dr. McFall, an Irish- man, practiced from 1813-14 till he died, about 1884. After Dr. Eleazer Lyman was accidentally killed by his horse, in 1845, Dr. James Brooks came and practiced medicine at Great Bend many years. Dr. James Griffin, father of Dr. Lansing Griffin, was here also when Dr. E. F. Wilmot came, in 1854. Brooks was on the Hallstead side. Drs. Vail, Charles Bigelow and Merrifield practiced here more or less. Dr. E. P. Hines came in 1879. Dr. Dayton practiced medi- cine and resided in Hallstead, where he died. Dr. F. D. Lamb and Dr. Van Ness are the present physicians in Hallstead. Dr. Skinner practiced medicine to some extent. He resided in the vicinity of Hickory Grove, and wrote a history of the United States in poetry. He tried to write in the style of Homer's Iliad.

BURIAL-PLACES .- There is an old burying-ground near the Episcopal Church, in which there are many old graves, some of which are unmarked by anything save a small native head and foot-stone, without in-

scription. Some of the native stones have inscriptions, and are in a good state of preservation, as the follow- ing : "Here lies Rev. Daniel Buck, died April 13, 1814, aged seventy-seven."

ROSE HILL CEMETERY, so named in honor of Ben- jamin H. Rose, who gave the land, is handsomely located on a little eminence west of Hallstead, having the old burial-place in the Presbyterian yard, the winding Susquehanna, the two villages of Hall- stead and Great Bend and the surrounding mountain, all in view. The ponderous trains of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad rush heedlessly past at the base of the eminence, in strange contrast with the last sad repose of the village dead on the hill above.

Keystone Agricultural Society .- At a meeting held in J. W. Dusenbury's office, July 23, 1881, The Key- stone Agricultural Society was organized by the elec- tion of T. T. Estabrook, president; W. S. Barnes, vice-president; J. H. Dusenbury, secretary and treas- urer, an office which the latter resigned at the next meeting, July 31st, and J. W. Dusenbury was elected secretary, a position which he has held ever siuce, and William Newman was elected treasurer. Rufus Kistler was elected vice-president in place of W. S. Barnes, resigned. A constitution and by-laws were adopted at this meeting. A piece of flat land, beauti- fully located on the Susquehanna, was rented of James F. Carl, and the sale of intoxicating liquors on the ground was forbidden at that meeting ; also the ex- ecutive committee was empowered to take full charge of the affairs of the association. At the an- nual mecting of the stockholders the old officers were re-elected, with the exception of vice-president. B. B. Tuthill was elected to that position, and Galon Newman, W. S. Barnes, Charles Summers, Thonias Conklin and Calvin Brush were elected as an execu- tive committee. J. H. Dusenbury was appointed to have full control of the grounds, excepting during fair time. In 1883 P. H. Lines was elected treasurer ; Galon Newman, L. D. Judd, Jeremiah Banker, W. T. Estabrook and W. S. Barnes, executive committee. In 1883 the stock subscription amounted to $937.60 ; receipts from fair, $1166.40; ground-rents, $48. There was paid in premiums $475, racing; and $326, agricultural, - total, $801. For labor on buildings, $310.24; rent, $100. There were sundry other items of expense, leaving a balance in the treasurer's hands of $209.55. Thic association have erected suitable buildings and stalls for exhibition pur- poses, and they have one of the finest half-mile race- tracks in the State. The exhibition of stock and horse-racing are prominent features of the exhibition.

HISTORY OF SUSQUEHANNA COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA.

COMMON SCHOOLS .- The following is J. Du Bois' account of

" The First School-house .- The early settlers in the valley, to their honor let it ever be remembered, felt it their duty, at a very early day of its settlement, to build a respectable edifice in which they could educate the rising generation, in which they could meet to worship God. They not only felt it their duty, hut they at once acted in the matter by call- ing a meeting, at which a committee was appointed to circulate subscrip- tions to raise funds for the purpose of huilding a house, not only large enough to hold all the children in the township, but large enough to accommodate all the people of the valley who wanted to meet for worship. A subscription was drawn up, signed and circulated, and another meet- ing was held to hear the report of the subscription committee. The amount of subscriptions was reported. Many of the subscribers were then living in log houses, with roofs made by slahs split out of logs by hand, and others with roofs made of the boughs of the hemlock. Yet, at this meeting, it was resolved that this first house, which they were about to build and dedicate to these noble purposes, should he a fraine building, sided with sawed pine siding, and shingled with good pine shingles, to be fourteen feet between joists, and twenty by forty feet on the ground, and to be finished in a workmanlike manner. One of the settlers proposed that a belfry and steeple should adorn the building. This proposition was objected to, on the ground that the amount sub- scribed would not warrant this additional expense. The individual pro- posing this then arose and said that, as he was desirous of seeing at least one thing in this valley pointing heavenward, if they would huild a spire he would add ten dollars to his subscription ; a lady present then arose and said that she would add ten dollars ; others followed suit, and the matter was soon decided in favor of a steeple. The windows were to he large, and Gothic in style, and a pulpit was to be built in the north end of the building ; a porch was to cover the entrance, and as the house was to face the street, the spire was to be on the centre of the building. Large swinging partitions divided the interior of the house in the mid- dle, when used for school purposes, but were hoisted and kept in position by supports, when used for church purposes. This house was to be free to all denominations of worshippers. After the above plan this house was built. The steeple on this first house of worship, huilt at Great Bend, displayed good architectural design and ornamental finish, and was painted white; but I am sorry to have to record the fact that neither the fathers nor their degenerate sons ever painted the hody of this otherwise fine building. But in it many youth were educated, and many a sinner, convicted of his great ingratitude to a kind and ever- merciful God, was pointed heavenward for relief, by the faithful teacher and preacher. As the roads were very rough in those days, most of the worshippers came to meeting on horsehack, often two riding on one horse. As we had no settled ministers of that time, Captain Ichabod Buck, a soldier of the Revolution, of the Presbyterian faith, when there was no preacher present, always opened the meeting by reading a por- tion of God's Word, and by prayer. William Buck, his son, led the choir in singing. after which Captain Buck read a selected sermon, aud invariably closed the meeting by calling on Deacon Asa Adams, another soldier of the Revolution, for the closing prayer."

In this school-house the first Sabbath-school was started, June 1, 1817 or '18, at the suggestion of Elijah, son of Captain I. Buck. The first teachers were Miss Jane Du Bois (Mrs. Lusk) and a Miss Stewart.

Mr. J. B. Buck states :

" The school-houses of those early days were extremely primitive. They were built of logs; the seats made of slabs, with legs inserted in two-inch auger-holes for supports, and without backs. The desks for writing were along the wall, and when the lads and lasses practiced at writing they sat with their backs to the school. The rooms were warmed by a firc-place ; and in these rude shelters the religious meetings were held, and the early churches established. A school-house was after- wards built upon the ground now occupied by Mr. Mckinney's store. It was used, for a long time, for a meeting-house. Previously, we had used Mr. Strong's dwelling-house, which stood a few rods north of the water-tank."

The first district school was taught in 1800 by Alba Dimon. Abijah Barnes taught in 1801, in a room of

a log dwelling, vacated for the purpose. The first singing-school was taught by Almon Munson in the chamber of Judge Thomson's house, or what was afterwards his. Religious meetings were sometimes held in Esq. Dimon's barn.

There are eight school districts besides the two boroughs, which have graded schools. Besides the common schools, there have been academies and private schools in the days gone by, and Mrs. S. B. Chase, a lady well capable of judging, says that some of those schools were well conducted, particularly Mr. Mann's school. Early in 1831 a man by the name of Strails had a select school in the Bowes mansion, or female seminary. The principal afterwards re- moved to Binghamton and disgraced himself. In the fall of 1832 James Catlin and Miss Lucretia Loomis had charge of the institution. When the latter went to Montrose it was changed to an academy, and only male students were invited-Rev. Jason Corwin, principal.

CHAPTER XXXVI.

GREAT BEND BOROUGH.

A PETITION of sundry citizens of Great Bend, asking to be incorporated as a borough, was presented at the August term of court, 1860, and said borough was in- corporated by the court at November term, 1861. The boundaries are as follows : "Beginning at an elm tree on the banks of the Susquehanna River, the cor- ner of lands owned by the D. L. & W. R. R. Co. and lands owned by S. H.

Isaac Reckhow was elected burgess in 1864. The newly-elected Council refused to qualify, and Isaac Reckhow, R. T. Stephens, J. H. Dusenbury and A. P. Stephens appcar to have transacted all the business for some time. Oct. 27, 1866, on petition of H. P. Doran, J. H. Dusenbury, Geo. McNamara, Geo. H. White, Vincent Reckhow, E. F. Wilmot, Wm. M. Clark, Jolın O'Brien, Mathew Blake, Amos Sanders, Daniel Sullivan, Patrick Leonard, W. A. Colstein, C. C. Hamlin, W. H. Murray, W. H. Wilmot, Isaac Reckhow, W. S. Wolcutt, W. Paintin and Wm. W. Ellicott, an addition was made to the borough on the west end.

Bedell and Asa Blatchley, assistants.

" 1 Josiah Stewart, a son of Lieutenant Lazarus Stewart, Jr., and a grandson of Captain Lazarus Stewart, too young to engage in the terrible strife at Wyoming, where his father and grandfather were killed, escaped the slaughter that followed, and after- wards settled on the Susquehanna River, at Great Bend, and at one time owned and occupied what was afterwards known as the 'Thomson Farm,' upon which Great Bend Borough is now located. Josiah Stewart came here at an early day, and although not wealthy, was an enterprising citizen, had something to do in building, and at one time owned our first grist-mill, and built one of the first saw-mills in the neighborhood. His family consisted of his wife and three sons-Lazarus, the eldest (named after his grandfather, Captain Lazarus Stewart, who fell in the Wyoming massacre), Charles and Espy. His daugh- ters were Hannah, Pattie, Betsey and Frances. Mr. Stewart believed in the education of the youth of our country, especially females. On them (he used to say), as teachers and mothers, the future welfare of our country depended; and, acting upon this belief, he gave his daughters as good an education as his means would warrant, and some of your readers will remember the days of log school-houses and slab-
