The bodies of those who were slain at the battle and massacre of the 3d of July remained on the field till the 22nd of the following October, when a guard was detailed from Camp Westmoreland, under Lieutenant John Jen- kins, for the protection of those to whom was assigned the melancholy duty of interring these martyrs.

During about two months in the winter of 1778-9 the depredations of the prowling Indians were suspended; but in March, 1779, a force of about 250 appeared in the valley, and after a demonstration against a block house in Kingston, and the theft of some sixty head of

cattle, failing to draw the forces defending the valley into an ambush, they boldly approached the Wilkes- Barre fort, which was garrisoned by only 100 men, though urgent appeals for more had been made by Colonel Butler. They were repulsed from the fort, but continued their work of plunder in the valley. Colonel Butler was reinforced by a German regiment of about three hundred, and soon drove the marauders from the open portions of the valley. They hovered about in the mountains, however, waylaying people in the passes, and with much audacity making occasional descents into the valley. Near Laurel Run, some four miles from the fort, they ambushed Major Powell, with a small regiment that was marching to the valley, and succeeded in throwing his forces into confusion. Succor from the fort arrived and escorted this small force to the valley.

During the spring and early summer of 1779 active preparations were made for a campaign into the country of the Six Nations. General Sullivan was placed in command of this expedition, and the force, consisting of about three thousand men, made their rendezvous on the flats below Wilkes-Barre and in Fort Durkee. These preparations were of course watched by the wily foc, who knew well what was the object of the expedition, and who sought by attacks on Freeland's Fort on the west branch, Minisink, in Orange county, N. Y., and a settlement on the Lackawaxen, to divert the, attention of General Sullivan and divide his army; but this expedient failed.

On the 24th of July a large fleet of boats from the lower Susquehanna arrived, loaded with military stores. On the 28th ninety wagons, loaded also with military stores, arrived, and on the 31st the expedition marched, leaving a garrison at Wyoming under Colonel Z. Butler. The land force marched up the east side of the river, halting from time to time and waiting at their camping places to enable the boats to keep within a safe distance. According to Colonel Hubley's journal, as published in the appendix to Miner's history, they encamped the first night at the confluence of the Lackawanna and Sus- quehanna rivers. On the Ist of August they marched about seven miles, to a place called Quilutimunk, where they encamped. A portion of the army passed over the mountain to guard against surprise by the savages, and the encampment was not reached till near morning. They remained at this place through the 2nd, and on the 3d marched to a point above the mouth of the Tunkhan- nock. On the 4th they marched about fourteen miles and encamped on Vanderlip's and Williamson's farms. On the 5th they marched to Wyalusing, passing a place called Depue's farm, where Colonel Hartley had been attacked by the Indians the previous year. On the 9th they arrived at Shesequin or Queen Esther's Plains, and on the 11th at Tioga Point. Here a junction was effect- ed with General Clinton, who with his force had come down from Otsego lake, the head waters of the Susquehanna, in boats on an artificial freshet, made by damming the outlet of that lake. After the junction the combined army moved forward, penetrated the country

of the savages on the Susquehanna and Genesee rivers, burned their towns, destroyed their crops and property, and inflicted on them injuries from which they never re- covered. Having accomplished their work they returned to Wyoming, where they arrived early in October, and were welcomed at a sumptuous entertainment by Colonel Butler.

In this campaign only forty men were lost, by sickness or otherwise, out of more than three thousand. On the Ioth of October this army left Wyoming for Easton. Says Marshall, as quoted by Miner: "While Sullivan laid waste the country on the Susquehanna another expedition was carried on from Pittsburg up the Alle- gheny against the Mingo, Muncy and Seneca tribes. At the head of between six and seven hundred men he advanced two hundred miles up the river and destroyed the villages and cornfields on its head branches."

. It was confidently hoped that the chastisement which Sullivan had inflicted on the savages had so crippled them as to prevent further depredation, and a sense of security began to be entertained among the settlers who remained. This, however, was of short duration. Exasperated and thirsting for revenge, the Indians reappeared among the mountains about Wyoming in prowling marauding bands in the spring of 1780, and many depredations were com- mitted on the settlers who had ventured farther away from the forts in the towns of Kingston, Plymouth and Han- over. Did space permit many instances might be given of the murder or capture of the inhabitants and the adven- tures and escapes of the prisoners. The garrison at Wilkes-Barre had come to be so weak that pursuit from it was not feared, and many scalping parties passed the settlement for the purpose of committing depredations farther south. In September, 1780, a band secretly . passed Wyoming, crossed the river near the mouth of Nescopeck creek and surprised a party of men at Sugar- loaf valley, killing thirteen; took away some prisoners and booty, and on their return burned the Shickshinny mills and many grain stacks. In December a raid on the valley was made by nineteen white men and five Indians and seven prisoners were taken away.

The Lackawanna valley was not, like Wyoming, the theater of active operations in the Revolutionary war. It was scarcely settled till after the close of that contest, and only afforded hiding places for scalping parties of savages.

During the years 1781 and 1782 the valley and the vicinity were several times visited by small parties of In- dians, who pillaged, murdered and took away prisoners, but no attack was made by any considerable force. It is worthy of remark that no settlement on the frontiers suffered more severely in proportion to its population during the Revolution than Wyoming valley. The loss at the battle July 3d, 1778, a's before stated, has been es- timated at 300, and it was thought that 200 more perished in their flight. These, along with those who were from time to time during the succeeding four years murdered by the Indians, amount to more than one-fifth of the en- tire population of the valley at the time of the massacre.

In addition to this the sufferings of the survivors were great and the destruction of property was immense.

CIVIL. . HISTORY-BOUNDARIES, ORGANIZATION, COUNTY BUILDINGS AND CIVIL, LIST.

HE struggle for the possession of this region by settlers who claimed it as a part of Con- necticut has been described. The govern- ment of Connecticut took the same position; and the Assembly of that State in January, 1774, created from the territory claimed by it west of the Delaware river the town of Westmoreland, as a part of Litchfield county. On the east this vast town was bounded by the Delaware river; on the west by a meridian passing fifteen miles west of the Wyoming set- tlements; on the south by the forty-first and on the north by the forty-second parallel of north latitude-the present Pennsylvania and New York line.

On the end of the following March the voters of the new town, in town meeting assembled, organized West- moreland by the election of a hundred officers (about half the voting population), consisting of treasurer, select- men, constables and collectors of rates, surveyors of . highways, fence viewers, listers, leather sealers, grand jurors, tithing men, sealers of weights and measures and key keepers. Colonel Zebulon Butler was elected treas- urer; Christopher Avery, John Jenkins, Nathaniel Lan- don, Samuel Ransom, Caleb Bates, Silas Parke and Ros- well Franklin, selectmen; and Asa Stevens, Timothy Smith, Jonathan Haskel, Asaph Whittlesy, Noah Adams, Phineas Clark and William Smith, constables and collect- ors of rates.

At the autumn session of the Connecticut Legislature in 1776 Westmoreland was made a county, and at the next session John Jenkins was appointed judge of the county court for the ensuing year. The whole period of Westmoreland's administrative connection with Connec- ticut corresponds very nearly with the duration of the Revolutionary war. When made a town it contained the townships of Wilkes-Barre, Hanover, Plymouth, Kingston and Pittston, established by the Susquehanna Company; and to these were added before its severance from Con- necticut Huntington, Salem, Newport, Providence, Exeter, Bedford, Northumberland, Tunkhannock, Braintrim, Springfield, Claverack and Ulster. The population of Westmoreland in 1774 was 1,922. The assessment ac- companying the tax list of 1775 was £13,083.

Justices were commissioned as follows for district num- ber 9, consisting of Rush and Bridgewater townships:

1808, Asa Dimock and Salmon Bosworth; 1809, Isaac Brownson and Joshua Waldo Raynsford.

Nicholson, Willingborough and Lawsville townships composed the roth district, for which the justices were: 1804, Thomas Tiffany ; 1805, Hosea Tiffany ; 1810, William Thompson.

Under the constitution of 1838 justices of the peace and aldermen were elected in cities, boroughs and town- ships to serve for five years, and under the act of As- sembly of the 21st of June, 1839, the first election took place in 1840.

Under the constitution of 1873 justices of the peace and aldermen were to be elected for five years, and under the act of Assembly of the 22nd of March, 1877, com- missions were to take effect from the first Monday of May, the governor having power to appoint to vacan- cies up to 30 days after the next municipal election.

The justices for townships, and aldermen for boroughs under the constitution of 1838 and subsequent enact- ments will be found in the township, borough and city histories.

When this region, by the Trenton decree of 1782, finally came under the jurisdiction of Pennsylvania, it became a part of the county of Northumberland (county seat Sunbury), which had been taken in 1772 from North- ampton (county seat Easton), the latter covering a large section of the original county of Bucks, from which it was formed in 1752.

"To extend to the remote- settlement at Wyoming the advantage of civil government, in which they might par- ticipate, affording them an opportunity to administer their local affairs by persons having the confidence of the inhabitants, chosen by themselves; to give the people an efficient representation in the council and Assembly, so that their voice might be heard, their interests explained and their influence fairly appreciated," a new county was formed on the 26th of September, 1786, from part of the territory of Northumberland. It was named Luzerne from the Chevalier de la Luzerne, a most popular minister from the French court during the Revolution and for many years afterward a prominent figure in the public eye; and was bounded as follows : "Beginning at the mouth of Nescopeck creek, and running along the south bank thence eastward to the head of said creek; from thence a due east course to the head branch of Lehigh creek; thence along the east bank of said Lehigh creek to the head thereof; from thence a due north course to

the northern boundary of the State; thence westward along said boundary until it crosses the east branch of Susquehanna, and then along the said northern boundary fifteen miles west of the said river Susquehanna; thence by a straight line to the head of Towanda; thence along the ridge which divides the waters of the east branch of the Susquehanna from those of the west branch, to a point due west from the mouth of the Nescopeck; thence east to the place of beginning."

The act creating the county provided for an election on the second Tuesday of the following October, to choose county officers and representatives in the Legis- lature; and that Zebulon Butler, Nathaniel Landon, Jonah Rogers, Simon Spalding and John Phillips should be a commission to buy a site for the county buildings.

On the 27th of May, 1787, the Court of Common Pleas convened for its first session at the house of Zebulon Butler, corner of Northampton and River streets, Wilkes-Barre. The justices constituting the court were William Hooker Smith, Benjamin Carpenter and James Nesbit. They admitted to practice as attorneys Ebenezer Bowman, Putnam Catlin, Roswell Wells and William Nichols. Colonel Timothy Pickering was commissioned prothonotary of the court, surrogate and county clerk.

The original territory of Luzerene county was first re- duced by the annexation of a part to Lycoming county in 1804; in 1808 its boundaries were extended south of Nescopeck creek; in 1810 Susquehanna and part of Bradford were taken off, and in 1842 Wyoming; and in 1856 the present southern boundary was established by the annexation of part of Foster township to Carbon county. The latest and most important change was the creation of Lackawanna county, of which an account is given in the history of that county.

In 1790 the county court divided the county into eleven townships. These retained the old names of Wilkes- Barre, Pittston, Hanover, Newport, Exeter, Plymouth, Kingston, Salem, Tioga, Wyalusing and Tunkhannock, but the territory of those townships which had existed under the Connecticut jurisdiction was extended. The further formation and modification of townships are de- scribed in the township histories.

The commissioners, named above, to procure a site for county buildings made choice of the public square in Wilkes-Barre; and in 1791 there was erected a two-story hewn log building, about sixty feet long and half as wide, of which the second story was the court-room (approached by steps outside), and the lower floor was for the jail and the jailer.

This structure gave way in 1801 for the building of a new court house on the same site. The old one was oc- cupied, however, during the construction of the new, which was finished in 1804, when the log building became the Wilkes-Barre Academy.

The new court-house, which was in the shape of a cross and had a low tower and a belfry in the center of the roof, cost $9,356.06, and was used more than fifty years. In the year after the commencement of its construction a jail was built on the corner of Market and Washington

streets, and between 1809 and 1812 a fireproof building for the county records, the three costing about $24,000.

In 1835 the Legislature authorized the erection of the present court-house, and its corner stone was laid August 12th, 1856. Under the supervision chiefly of Benjamin F. Pfauts, William A. Tubbs and Silas Dodson it was completed and furnished at a cost of $85,000. The ar- chitect was J. C. Wells, of New York, and the builder I). A. Fell. Provision is made in this building for the pub- lic offices, which formerly occupied a separate one.

The jail begun in 1802 served until 1870, although long before that time it had proved inadequate to the de- mands upon it and was unworthy of the advanced posi- tion of the commonwealth in the matter of prison disci- pline.
