These last purchases constitute very near a third part of the territory of the State, including the whole of the present counties of Lawrence, Mercer, Crawford, Venango, Clarion, Forrest, Warren, McKean, Potter, Tioga, Clin- ton, Cameron and Elk, and parts of Beaver, Armstrong, Clearfield, Lycoming, Bradford and Erie. A part of Erie County, the triangle, was afterward, in 1792, purchased from the United States and the Six Nations of Indians.

In the spring and summer of 1785, a few months after the extinguishment of the Indian title, surveyors entered on this part of the new purchase, making and numbering different sized tracts of land for donation to the Pennsylvania line of Revolutionary soldiers. The dissatisfaction of the Indians, it is pre- sumed, interrupted this work, for it soon became evident that they were not satisfied with the manner in which Pennsylvania had bargained with them. In 1791 the Seneca chiefs, Cornplanter, Half-Town and Great Tree, in a speech to Gen. Washington, the President of the United States, thus make their complaint with regard to this matter:

Father: Your commissioners, when they drew the line which separated the land then given up to you from that which you agreed should remain to be ours, did most solemnly promise that we should be secured in the peaceable possession of the lands which we inhabited east and north of that line. Does this promise bind you?

Hear now, we beseeeh you, what has sinee happened eoneerning that land. On the day in which we finished the treaty at Fort Stanwix, commissioners from Pennsyl- vania told our chiefs that they had come there to purchase from us all the lands belonging

144

to us within the lines of their State, and they told us that their line would strike the river Susquehanna below Tioga branch. They then left us to consider of the bargain till the next day; on the next day we let them know that we were unwilling to sell all the lands within their State, and proposed to let them have a part of it, which we pointed out to them on their map. They told us that they must have the whole; that it was already ceded to them by the great King, at the time of making peace with you, and was their own; but they said that they would not take advantage of that, and were willing to pay' us for it after the manner of their ancestors. Our chicfs were unable to contend at that time, and therefore they sold the lands up to the line, which was then shown to them as the line of that State.

In his reply to this complaint of one of the Six Nations, Gen. Washington was careful to refrain from any promise of relief for the past, but only for the future. He said:

I am not uninformed that the Six Nations have been led into some difficulties, with respect to the sale of their lands since the peace. But I must inform you that these evils arose before the present government of the United States was established, when the sep- arate States, and individuals under their authority, undertook to treat with the Indian tribes respecting the sale of their lands. But the case is now entirely altered; the general government, only, has the power to treat with the Indian Nations, and any treaty formed and held without its authority will not be binding.

In their answer to this reply of Gen. Washington, Cornplanter and his associates showed themselves to be no mean negotiators. They said:

Father, your speech, written on the great paper, is to us like the first light of the morn- ing to a sick man, whose pulse beats too strongly in his temples, and prevents him from sleep. He sces it and rejoices, but he is not cured.

You say that you have spoken plainly on the great point; that you will protect us in the land sccured to us at Fort Stanwix, and that we have the right to sell or to refuse to sell it. This is very good. But our-nation complains that you compelled us at that treaty to give up too much of our lands. We confess that our nation is bound by what was there done; and acknowledging your power, we have now appealed to yourselves against that trcaty, as made while you were too angry with us, and, therefore, unreason- able and unjust. To this you have given us no answer.

That treaty was not made with a single State-it was with the thirteen States. We never would have given all that land to one State. We know it was before you had the great authority, and, as you have more wisdom than the commissioners who forced us into that treaty, we expect that you also have more regard for justice, and will now, at our request, reconsider that treaty, and return to us a part of that land.

Father: The land which lies between the line running south from Lake Erie to the boundary of Pennsylvania, as mentioned in the treaty at Fort Stanwix, and the eastern boundary of the land which you sold, and the Senecas confirmed, to Pennsylvania, is the land on which Half-Town and all his people live, with other chiefs, who always have been, and still are, dissatisfied with the treaty at Fort Stanwix. They grew out of this. land, and their fathers' fathers grew out of it, and they can not be persuaded to part with it. We, therefore, entreat you to restore to us this little piece.

To this Gen. Washington replied:

While you complain of the treaty of Fort Stanwix, in 1784, you seem entirely to forget that you yourselves, the Cornplanter, Half-Town, and Great Tree, with others of your nation, confirmed, by the treaty at Fort Harmar, upon the Muskingum, so late as the 9th of January, 1789, the boundary marked by the treaty at Fort Stanwix, and that, in consideration thereof, you then received goods to a considerable amount.

To this the chiefs of the Six Nations made no reply, but in the negotia- tions that followed in 1793, with the Indian tribes occupying the lands in the present States of Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana, it was claimed that the only equitable boundary between them and the whites was the Ohio River, of which the Allegheny was then considered a part, as agreed upon by treaty with the English at Fort Stanwix, in 1758, and that the treaties and sale of lands at Fort Stanwix and McIntosh, in 1784 and 1785, were void, for the reason that the Six Nations and Delawares, and Wyandots, were not the sole owners of

145

HISTORY OF MERCER COUNTY.

these lands, which could only be disposed of by a general council of all the Indian nations having rights therein.

This position being finally taken by the Indians of the Northwest, the practical decision of the question of boundary was referred to the fortunes of war. In 1794 Gen. Wayne, by his decisive victory over the Indians at the battle of the Fallen Timbers, entirely convinced them that the line of the Ohio River was no longer a negotiable question, and by the treaty of Greenville, which he made with them in 1795, all their pretensions were given up, and thus, after ten years of uncertainty, with alternate hostility and negotiation, that part of the State lying north and west of the Allegheny and Ohio Rivers, became the undisputed possession of Pennsylvania, and open for the occupa- tion of white settlers.

By act of the Legislature in 1783, even before the Indian title to the lands in this section of the State was claimed to have been either negotiated for or extinguished, a strip of land along the north and west side of the Ohio and Allegheny Rivers, commencing at the place where the western bound- ary of the State crosses the Ohio River, and thence up said rivers to the " mouth of Mogulbughtiton Creek, thence by a west line to the western boundary of the State, and thence south to the place of beginning," was set apart for the purpose of being surveyed into numbered lots, each containing from 200 to 350 acres, to be sold for "certificates of depreciation," given in settlement to the soldiers of the Pennsylvania line in the Revolutionary army. These certificates were assumed to be the special value of all claims against the State for military service, and for these lands thus set apart were to be received as specie. In addition to this reservation, the same act sets apart all the remainder of the territory in the northwest part of the State, out of which tracts of 200, 250, 300 and 500 acres were to be surveyed, marked and numbered as "Bounty Lands," to the officers, surgeons, chap- lains, musicians and privates of the Pennsylvania line in the Revolutionary army. When surveyed these bounty lands were found to cover the greater portion of Mercer County. They are distinguished on the maps by being num- bered. A very few of them were settled by the soldiers to whom they were do- nated, but were sold to others.

In 1792, before the Indian difficulties were entirely settled, the Legislature of the State enacted that all lands north and west of the Ohio and Allegheny Rivers and Conewango Creek, not heretofore reserved for public or charitable uses, should be offered for sale to persons who would cultivate, improve and settle them, at the rate of $20 per 100 acres, with an allowance of 6 per cent for public roads. In this act it was provided that a settlement to be complete, so as to entitle the holder to the privilege of purchasing at the price stipulated, must be the clearing, fencing and cultivation of at least two acres for every hundred in each survey, to build a house for the habitation of man, and to reside, or cause a family to reside thereon, for the space of five consec- utive years from the first settlement of the same, unless prevented or driven therefrom by force of arms, by enemies of the United States; in either of which cases their rights under the law were not to be impaired. It was not until four years afterward, in 1796, that settlers began to take advantage of this law, the fear of Indian depredations doubtless deterring them until after Wayne's treaty with them in 1795. Under the law, continuous occupation, with the exceptions above noted, which were inoperative when settlements really began, was necessary to hold the tract of land first settled upon; and according to a rule that obtained general consent among the settlers, the absence of person and dying out of fire in a cabin was deemed an abandonment by the first

146

HISTORY OF MERCER COUNTY.

settler, whose cabin could lawfully be occupied and a new settlement be com- menced by any person that thought proper to do so. To hold the premises, when desirable, neighbor friends would travel miles on foot to keep up fires for those who were unavoidably absent on business or in visiting their friends. But this could not be done in all cases. John Carmichael, whose father John, by the way, came to America in the army of Gen. Wolfe, and was at the taking of Quebec from the French in 1759, built his cabin in what is now Worth Township, cleared a few rods of ground, and then left it for the winter, intending to return with his family in the spring. When he arrived, accord- ing to intent and accompanied by his father, he found another party in pos- session, and his traps set outside the door; so there was no other way for a law- abiding citizen than to lose his labor of the previous season and find another place to commence a new settlement. This he did, peaceably and good- naturedly, in the immediate neighborhood, where the numerous descendants of both parties live and flourish, and are friends at this day.

Under the act of 1792 John Nicholson, for himself in the first place, and afterward as the president of the Pennsylvania Population Company, took out warrants from the land office for upward of half a million of acres lying principally in what is now Lawrence, Mercer, Crawford and Erie Counties. In this company, John and David Hoge, of Washington County, Penn., were in- terested, as well as in other lands covered with warrants taken out by them- selves. The Holland Land Company and North America Land Company were two more of these land jobbing associations, whose claims in later years fell into the hands of H. J. Huidekoper, of Meadville, and Hon. Stephen Barlow, of Meadville, and Hon. Henry Baldwin, of Pittsburgh.

In addition to these great companies, either as independent speculators or as agents, figured Dr. Nathaniel Bedford, who held lands in Mahoning and Shenango Townships, and for whom the town of New Bedford, in Lawrence County, was probably named, it being included in his claims, and also the firm of Lodge, Probst & Walker, whose field of operations was principally in the northwest part of the county. These great companies and speculators paid a small fee at the land office for their warrants when issued, and then sought by every means to get settlers on their claims within the two years pre- scribed by the act, allowing therefor from 100 to 200 acres out of their tract of 400. The State, at the same time, was giving full tracts at the same rates to actual settlers, and the result was that the settler often built his cabin unknowingly on a tract on which one of these warrants was previously laid, and the consequence was years of expensive litigation before the claims of the adverse and contending parties were permanently settled. A land war- rant was an order for a survey of a vacant piece of land which, on being returned to the land office, and the stipulated price paid for the land covered by the survey, a patent or deed from the commonwealth was issued; and here, including the surveys made to satisfy the claims of the Revolutionary soldiers, is the bed-rock of all the land titles in Mercer County.

T HE early settlers who came into what is now Mercer County, were largely Irish, and mainly members of the Presbyterian Church. They were intell- igent, courageous, industrious people, who were desirous of establishing homes for themselves in the new country just opened up to be occupied by the white race. They came, the majority of them, from the counties of Westmoreland, Washington, Fayette and Allegheny, where they had located after wearisome journeys from the East across the Allegheny Mountains. Some, it is true, came direct from Ireland and the eastern counties of the State, but the line of travel brought them by way of the forks of the Ohio. As a rule these pio- neers reared large families, and were noted for their longevity. Their modes of living were simple, the habits such as conduce to health and happiness, and, what was favorable, no eager desire to become suddenly wealthy per- plexed them. Neighbors lived on terms of genuine friendship and equality, and strove to promote one another's interests. The log rolling, the butter boiling, the corn husking, the cabin raising, the stated meetings, the annual elections, were periods of real enjoyment, which tended to cement the ties of friendship and bind communities more closely together. Common hardships and common wants established a community of feeling and interest. Castes in society did not exist. All occupied the same level, and enjoyed the same rights and privileges. The happiness of those pioneer days would outweigh that enjoyed often in these fashionable times.

It must be remembered that Mercer County was separated, theoretically, from Allegheny County March 12, 1800, but it was not organized until 1803. During the three years intervening it was joined, for judicial purposes, to Crawford County, with the seat of justice at Meadville. It should also be re- membered, too, that the names of townships were those which existed under the Crawford County organization. The townships then were large and sparsely populated, and they were subdivided again and again.

The lists of taxables by townships, for the years 1800, 1801 and 1802, were compiled by Mr. Garvin. Most of these pioneers with their families are spoken of in succeeding chapters. Here the names are given alphabetically as a matter of reference, and many of our readers will doubtless recognize in these lists the names of their ancestors and other relatives and friends.
