On the 17th of May, 1796, Alton Pemberton ad- vertised "To Storekeepers and others" that "he will in a few days open a most elegant, extensive, and well-chosen assortment of Dry-Goods, &c., . . . as they were all imported immediately under his inspec- tion from the first manufactories in Europe." His store was in the house of Mr. Beaumont, near the market house. The firm was changed to Bartholo- mew, Connelly & Co. on the 4th of October, 1796, and the business was removed to the house of John Colerick. On the 29th of June, the same year, Rob- ert Adams, bootmaker, advertised that he had " com- menced business in Town at the house of Patrick Moore." Isaiah Steen announced Aug. 11, 1796, that " he has commenced the business of Windsor-Chair Making in Washington in the house lately occupied by John Fisher;" later he was in the yellow house opposite Mr. Acheson's store, and was for many years in the old market-house. Thomas Wells was a watch- and clock-maker "at the house of Widow Wilson, near the Market-House," in September, 1796. Daniel Thompson was a "Breeches-Maker, next door to James McCluney's store." Robert Hamilton was a whitesmith, and occupied a shop next door to Joseph Huston's Tavern, 'The Buck.'" Later he built the brick house now occupied by his daughter, Mrs. Charles Sisson, where he kept a store. James Mc- Cluney was a brother of John McCluney (at one time sheriff of the county). James advertised Dec. 10, 1796, to sell off all his dry-goods, hardware, etc., but that he would continue to carry on the nailing busi- ness and sell lumber of all kinds. He died at New Orleans Nov. 2, 1799. The following quotation was given after remarks upon his death in one of the village papers': "There cracked a noble heart."

Hugh Workman's tan-yard was mentioned in De- cember, 1796. James Dougherty was a tailor, and in that month had "just opened at the house of Mrs. Mc- Millon, on Market Street." Alexander Reed & Co. offered (Jan. 4, 1797) " a large and elegant assort- ment of Goods," cloth coatings, cassimeres, flannels, linens, etc. John Johnston at the same time was selling dry-goods, hardware, etc. Thomas Thompson, on the 6th of May in that year, "informs the public that he has removed from Hamilton's saw-mill to Washington, next door to Mr. James McCluney's, where he proposes to manufacture Umbrellas and Sword Canes." He married a daughter of Thomas Scott, and later edited a paper in Washington. James McCammant was a gunsmith at this time, and opened a shop in the tavern of William McCammant. James Wilson was a coppersmith, and in June, 1797, an- nounced that he had "opened a shop at the house of John Wilson, cabinet-maker," now the site of A. T. Baird's store. James Wilson was a son of James and a brother of Hugh Wilson. His mother lived on the corner where Smith's store now stands. Robert Haz- lett announced on the 22d of December, 1797, that he had "removed his store from the house adjoining

Hugh Wilson to the house where William Arbuckle, Hatter, lives." Isaiah Steen advertised in the Herald of Liberty, May 18, 1798, that he had removed his shop from John Scott, innkeeper, to the house of Dr. John Culbertson, and continued the business of Windsor chair making. On the 24th of April, David Acheson offered to exchange for property in this town a lot of ground "in the town of Cincinnatti, North Western Territory." On the 8th of August, 1798, Robert Anderson and William Hutchinson opened a shop three doors below Mr. Purviance's tavern for conducting the "Clock and Watch-making business in all its branches." At the same time Thomas Wells had removed his business of clock- and watch-making from the Widow Wilson to a house below Mr. Valen- tine's tavern on Main Street. On the 11th of October, 1798, John Templeton commenced the tanning busi- ness at the tan-yard formerly occupied by James Brotherton, in the rear of Mr. Colerick's printing- office, then on Main Street, just north of where the Fulton House now is. May 30. 1799, John Watts advertised a brick-yard to rent adjoining the town of Washington. He also offered brick for sale at six dollars per thousand.

At a meeting of the inhabitants of the town of Washington, assembled at the court-house at ring of bell on Wednesday, the 25th January, 1798, to con- sult whether it will be proper to introduce the small- pox into their families at this time, the following persons being present answered as follows, to wit:

There were in the town 153 spinning-wheels, 97 hand-cards, 8 looms, 179 horses, 222 neat cattle, 133 common sheep, and 8 of mixed breeds.

On the 2d of July, 1810, James Dougherty moved his store to the house formerly occupied by Mrs. Mary Dodd, nearly opposite the court-house, and next door to Cunningham & Dill. In 1811 the Rev. Thomas Campbell lived near the college, and Thomas Ledlie Birch (afterwards famous as a preacher) ad- vertised drugs and medicines for sale. David Eckert was a saddler, and his dwelling and shop were in the brick house opposite the sign of the "Globe," and next to the bank. George Lockart, cabinet and chair- maker, "lately from Philadelphia," advertised that he had commenced business next door to James Langley's store. James Meetkirke, in May, 1811, advertised that he "wants flaxseed in exchange for Windsor chairs, which he manufactures." Libes Hat- man had a bakery opposite the "Rising Sun," on Market Street at the corner of Chestnut. Sampson S. King, captain United States infantry, advertised, May 11, 1812, that he had opened a recruiting-office at Washington, and offered a bounty of sixteen dol- lars, and addition of three months' pay and one hun- dred and sixty acres of land. On the 25th of May, 1812, Kline & Landis opened a "new saddler-shop" in the house of Joseph Patton, hatter, on Main Street, where David Eckert formerly had his saddler- shop.

On the 11th of April, 1814, William Hunter an- nounced that he had commenced mercantile business " in the house lately occupied by Dr. Le Moyne, next store below Mr. John Lockhart's store," the site now occupied by Michael Koontz. Later Mr. Hunter purchased the property now occupied by Samuel Haz- lett's bank, where he lived and was in business many years. Thomas Brice in April, 1814, moved from Amity to Washington, and opened a store next above the bank. In August the same year, Dubuisson ad- vertises that he has arrived from Philadelphia, and " Cleans, separates, files, plugs, and extracts teeth ; sets straight those inclined to any direction, and makes and places artificial ones." On the 1st of May, 1815, George Bertie, watchmaker, advertises that he has removed to the house adjoining Daniel Moore's store. Mrs. Bertie adds " that she continues to work at the millinery business in its various branches." Isaiah Steen in May, 1816, informs the public that in addition to his Windsor and fancy chair making "he has recently engaged an artist, by whom he will be enabled to carry on miniature, portrait, sign, and or- namental painting in a superior manner." On the 28th of April, the next year, G. Harrison advertises to "paint Portraits, Miniatures, Signs, etc., and to teach Drawing."

Robert Young was a book-binder in the town some years prior to 1819, and on the 18th of January in that year advertised that he " intends re- moving to Pittsburgh about the 1st of April next." A stone brewery was built on the property of Gen. Thomas Acheson, about 1819, and operated by Thomas & J. Cummings for many years. A large and extensive business was done. The building was eventually pulled down, and the stone used for foundations in the town. The property is now owned by Judge A. W. Acheson.

Early Taverns .- The tavern kept by William Hu- ston in 1774 was located just beyond the limits of the town on property now owned by Mrs. Swartz. A part of the old Huston farm is now embraced in the present limits of the borough. The first person to keep a public-house within the limits of Washington as then defined was James Wilson. He purchased a lot of David Hoge on the northwest corner of Beau and Main Streets, and at the first term of court in Wash- ington County, held in October, 1781, he was licensed " for keeping a public-house of entertainment at Cat- fish Camp." He erected a log house, in which he opened his tavern, which he kept until his death in 1792. At this house the Hon. William A. Atlee and the Hon. George Bryan, judges of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, were in the habit of stopping when holding Courts of Oyer and Terminer in Washington County. The house was kept as a tavern as late as 1840, and in later years was weatherboarded. It was finally torn down, and Smith's store was erected upon its site. The property was owned many years by Hugh Wilson, son of James.

John Dodd was one of the original proprietors of land adjoining the town of Washington. Very soon after the town was laid out he purchased lot 274, on the east side of Main Street, and in 1782 was licensed

to keep a tavern. He built a log house on the site now occupied by Hastings' hardware-store and the Washington Savings-Bank. In this house he kept tavern till his death in 1795, which occurred when returning from New Orleans. The deed for this lot bears date July 27, 1786, but this with lot No. 58 were purchased on a certificate, as was the case in the early lots. Judge J. C. Chambers, of this county, is a descendant of John Dodd.

Charles Dodd, a brother of John Dodd, was licensed to keep a tavern in April, 1782. He kept in a log house which stood on lot No. 58, now occupied by Strean's hardware-store. At this place the first courts were held, and in a log stable in the rear the prisoners of the county were confined. The deed of the lot was made to John Dodd May 30, 1789. On the 13th of August, 1792, John Dodd sold the house and lot to Daniel Kehr, who kept tavern a year or two, but later followed his trade of a shoemaker in the same house many years. His son, Isaac Kehr (afterwards spelled Kerr), succeeded to the property and lived there till his death.

At the September term of court (1783) John Ad- ams was licensed and kept tavern till 1789. John Colwell was licensed in 1784. At the September term in 1785, Hugh Means, Samuel Acklin, and Wil- liam Falconer were licensed. Acklin kept till 1788, and Falconer till 1791. William Meetkirke, who was for many years a justice of the peace, kept tavern where Mrs. McFarland now lives from June, 1786, to 1793.

Maj. George McCormick, who purchased large tracts of land in the northern part of the county, was licensed to keep tavern in Washington in 1788. The following quotation from Col. John May's journal (page 99) refers to his house: "Thursday, Aug. 7, 1788, set out from the hotel at four o'clock, and at half-past eight arrived at Maj. George McCormick's in Washington, where we breakfasted. This is an ex- cellent house, where our New England men put up."

Hugh Wilson (son of James) was licensed in Sep- tember, 1789; John McMichael and John Purviance in 1790. The latter owned lot No. 278, where the Fulton House now stands. He kept tavern as late as 1808, but resided here till the summer of 1817, when he removed to Claysville and laid out the town in that year.

Charles Valentine purchased the lot on which the Valentine House now stands, and built upon it a log house, which he opened as a tavern upon receiving his license at the September term of court, 1791. This house, named ." The White Goose," he kept till 1805, when he went into other business and died in 1809. It was kept by John Retteg from 1806 to 1810, and opened as "The Golden Swan." Juliana Valentine kept it from 1810 to 1819. In June, 1819, John Val- entine advertised that he had just opened the house at the sign of " The Golden Swan." Later it was kept by Lewis Valentine, and in March, 1825, John Hays |

opened it. In March, 1827, it was kept by Isaac Sumny, with the sign of "Washington Hall." Its changes have been numerous, but it is the oldest tavern site in the town. It is now known as the Val- entine House, and is kept by William F. Dickey.

Michael Kuntz was licensed in September, 1791, and kept one year where Vowell's drug-store now stands. J. Neilson, John Fisher, Samuel McMillan, and John Ferguson were each licensed December, 1793; Daniel Kehr in 1795.

Joseph Huston, a cousin of William Huston, was licensed January, 1796, and opened a tavern in the stone house on the east side of Main Street below Maiden, at the sign of "The Buck." He kept there till 1812, and his widow Elizabeth succeeded him. She kept a short time there, rented the property to James Sargent, who continued till April, 1815, when she again became the hostess, and kept it till after 1820.

James Workman was licensed in 1797. He opened a house of entertainment, which he kept till 1813, when he retired to a farm out of town. In April, 1816, he advertised that he had opened a public- house at the sign of "General Andrew Jackson," on the west side of Main Street, just below, the sign of " The Globe."

Samul Thomas was licensed to keep tavern in Sep- tember, 1797. He had purchased Lot No. 18, and in this year opened a tavern upon it. After a year he rented it to David Morris, who soon after purchased it, receiving his deed in 1804. From the time he took possession of the property till his death in 1834 the house was known as the " Globe" inn.

The lot No. 18 was first sold by David Hoge to Alexander Cunningham in May, 1784, who conveyed it to Samuel Shannon the 30th of August the same year. On the 25th of May, 1804, Shannon conveyed to David Morris all his right, title, and interest. The deed has not passed in all these years, and on the 2d of June in that year a deed was made from Mr. Hoge to David Morris. He was licensed first, in 1798, and opened the "Globe" tavern, where John Allen now lives, on Main Street. After the house came into his possession it was enlarged and improved, and became ·known as one of the best hotels between Washington, D. C., and Wheeling. This famous hotel was kept by David Morris till his death, Jan. 1, 1854. It was then continued by his widow a short time, and the property was sold to Thomas Morgan, who kept the post-office there the latter part of his term. An ac- count of the many famous dinners served in the "Globe Inn" would be tedious. The last incident of any moment in connection with the old tavern occurred in 1833. On the 16th day of April in that year Lieut. T. W. Alexander, of the United States army, having in charge as prisoners of war the renowned Black Hawk and five other Indians of the Sac and Fox tribes, arrived in this place by one of the stages on the old National road, being on their way to the

seat of government. They were all head men of their tribes, who were taken prisoners by Gen. Atkinson during the war of the summer previous. The names of the Indians were Ma-ka-tai-mesh-she-ka-kai, or Black Hawk ; We-pe-kie-shich, or the Prophet ; Nai- po-pe, or Broth ; Mesh-she-was-kuck, son of Black Hawk ; Pa-me-ho-its, brother of the Prophet ; Pa-we- shich, son of the Prophet.
