She agreed and he carried the money to Philadel- phia and deposited it in the Treasury, and took certificates. After the war, he sold these certificates for 17s. 6d. in the pound. After the debt was funded, certificates rose to twen- ty-five shillings for the pound.
" The law erecting Dauphin county and declaring Harris' Ferry the seat of Justice, was passed 4th March, 1785.
" The Town of Harrisburg was laid out in the Spring of the same year. William Maclay,* who was the son-in-law of John Harris, laid out the Town and made the draft of the plan and drew the various conveyances from John Harris to the Commissioners.
" The Ice-flood happened in the winter of 1784-5, and the Pumpkin-flood in the fall of 1787. During the Ice-flood, the low ground about the grave yard was covered with wa- ter, and the Ferry-flats were tied to the bars of the cellar windows of the Stone House. On that occasion, the water rose into the first story of Judge Carson's house, above Har- risburg, and a considerable part of the river ran around that house and down Paxton creek. The fences on its route were generally carried away. During the Pumpkin-flood, the ground about the grave yard was also covered with water, and the pumpkins carried off chiefly from the Yankees in Wyoming Valley, were strewed in profusion over the low ground below Harrisburg.
" The bricks of Judge Carson's house were made in its neighborhood, but the shingles and boards used in its con- struction, were brought from Philadelphia.
" When the Town was laid out, the old orchard extended up to about the line of Mulberry street, and down to near the stone house. About the intersection of Mulberry and Second streets, was a ridge, from which the ground descend- ed from six to ten feet to the present Market Square, and the water ran from the Square upwards and into the river, along the channel which is under the bridge, now erected across Front street above Walnut street. When the Town was laid out, the ground above Market street was chiefly in woods.
* William Maclay with Robert Morris, afterwards represented Penn- sylvania, in the first Senate of the U. States, under the Constitutiion.

HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY.
" The present Robert Harris has frequently seen several bears killed in the river in one day. In the fall of the year they would come down from the mountains to the corn fields, and were quite abundant in the neighborhood. It was quite common to see them whilst riding along the roads. In the year preceding the Revolution, they abounded more than usual in this neighborhood. The farmers when going out to plough, would frequently take their guns to guard against their depredations.
" When Robert Harris and Mrs. Hanna were children, they were one day playing at the river at the mouth of the run, at the end of Walnut street. A thicket of bushes ex- tended up along the run. Some boys came running from the barn on the bank, and called to them that two bears were coming down the run. They seampered up the bank, and presently the bears came along and took into the river.
" This occurrence is trifling in itself, but may be consider- ed interesting as having occurred on the site of the present Capitol of the State.
" On one occasion, a man named Rennox, with some others, went out on the river in a canoe in pursuit of a bear. When the canoe approached near to it, Rennox made a stroke at the bear with his socket pole, but missed it. He either lost his balance, or was drawn overboard by the weight of the pole, and the bear struck him with his paw, and tore his cheek open.
" Wild Turkeys were also abundant about Harrisburg dur- ing the revolution and after it. Mrs. Hanna has seen her father John Harris, shoot wild turkeys from the door of his stone house. Beaver and Otter were then and afterwards, killed along Paxton creek and on the Islands in the neigh- borhood. Otters were, however, more abundant than Bea- ver, and were very plenty.
" On one occasion, a party of Indians came down the river to murder the people of this settlement. They formed a camp in a thicket, back of Mr. Elder's mill dam. They de- signed falling on the people when at worship in Paxton church. They are supposed to have come on Monday, and after waiting several days, they came to the conclusion that the congregation would not assemble, and they went off .- They left the settlement by the way of Indian-town-gap .- On their way off, they murdered several persons and took a

prisoner, from whom it was afterwards ascertained that they had been encamped here several days. The late Joshua El- der has seen the encampment. The people of the Congrega- tion before and afterwards came to the church armed; and Mr. Elder, the pastor, also carried his gun into the pulpit .- Mr. Elder was pastor of that church when it was built, about 106 years ago, and preached to that congregation, and in the Derry church, upwards of sixty years. He was Col. of the Paxton Rangers, whose duty it was to keep a look out for the Indians, and range the settlements for their pro- tection, from the Blue mountain to the river.
" The late Judge Bucher's father,* who was a clergyman in Lebanon, was also a Colonel in the same kind of service.
" Parson Elder wore a small cocked hat, and such were usually worn by clergymen in this day.
" About the year 1793, Harrisburg was exceedingly sickly. A fever of a violent character prevailed, especially amongst the new settlers or foreigners. At the same time the yellow fever was prevailing in Philadelphia, and fears were enter- tained of its introduction into Harrisburg. A patrol was ac- cordingly established at the lower end of the Town, to pre- vent infected persons from Philadelphia coming into it. A considerable number of Irish emigrants died, and some of the citizens ; but most families of the place were to some extent afflicted. A mill dam owned by two men named Landis, was generally thought to be the cause of this sickness .- The citizens, after various meetings, resolved in March, 1795, on its removal, and a subscription was set on foot to raise money to pay the Landis' for the property. The site of the mill, dam and race had been bought from John Har- ris. His heirs, David Harris, Robert Harris, William Maclay and John A. Hanna, paid $1,600, the purchase money, or perhaps something more than the amount, which the Landis' had paid for the property, and the citizens generally contri-

A more indefatigable minister of the gospel, never labored in the German Reformed Church, than the Rev. Bucher. He was one of the most devoted ministers of the day ; truly apostolic in all his labors. He was a shining light, consuming itself, as it illuminated others by its splendor.

buted in addition. The money raised was tendered to the Landis', who refused it. The citizens then prepared for the forcible removal of the dam, and the Landis' threatened to use force to prevent it. The citizens accordingly marched in a body to the dam, on a cold snowy day in March. The owners were there with several men, armed with guns, threatening to fire. The citizens, however, advanced into the water, and the dam was soon demolished. The Landis' threatened suit, and the citizens handed to them a list of sev- eral hundred names to be sued ; but, the proprietors finally took the money .*
" Moses Gilmore, Stacy Potts, Capt. John Sawyers, Adam Boyd, Robert Harris, John Kean, Samuel Weir, Gen. John A. Hanna, Alexander and Samuel Berryhill, and many others, were active in the above proceedings.
" It may be remarked that some citizens of Harrisburg, who refused to contribute to the subscription, were obliged to leave the place. No violence was offered to them, but no one would employ them in their several pursuits, and they at length went elsewhere.
" The mill was erected about one quarter of a mile below Harrisburg-about as low down as the white house, which is situate on the old mill road and the canal ; and the race extended up along or nearly along the present route of the Pennsylvania canal, to a lane which ran across to the Hill, about the upper line of Mr. Dowding's brick yard lot, where the dam was erected.
" The Town as laid out by John Harris, extended as far down the bank as Mulberry street, and the lot belonging to the late Valentine Egle, on the upper corner of Front street and Mulberry street, was numbered one on the plan of the Town. In the course of one, two or three years afterwards, he extended the plan as low down as Mary's Alley, which bounds the stone house lot on the upper side. His executors in 1792, extended the plan of lots further down.
" There is no house, except the stone house, now standing within the present limits of Harrisburg, which is certainly known to have been erected before the Town was laid out. The log house, erected in the rear of Hise's brewery, on

.
Front street, was built abount the time the Town was laid out ; but whether it was begun before that time, is not re- collected.
" John Hamilton erected the first permanent embellishment to the Town, after Harris' stone house, by building the brick house on the corner of Front street and Blackberry Alley ; and also, the large establishment for his store, on the corner of Market Square and Market streets, now known as the " Washington Hotel." He was an extensive trader. In place of the present rapid modes of conveying merchandize and passengers to Pittsburg, he kept large numbers of horses and mules, and every few weeks his caravans set out " for the west," laden with salt, powder, lead, &c.
" The first Clergyman established in Harrisburg, was the Rev. Mr. Montgomery, a Presbyterian. His first discourse, we have heard, was delivered in the lot on which the Pres- byterian church is now erected, on a pleasant afternoon in June. The congregation-the whole Village-were shelter- ed by two or three large apple trees, and some noble oaks, the primitive growth of the forest.
"Chief Justice M'Kean, resided here for some time, at least while Congress sat at York. He lived in a substantial one-story log house, a short space above what is now Locust street. He wore an immense cocked hat, and had great de- ference shown him by the country people, and the straggling Indians who had their village on what is now M'Kees' place. This was in 1778-'79; after the country quieted, when he and the other Judges of the Supreme Court came to Harris- burg to hold a court, numbers of the citizens of the place would go out on horseback to meet them and escort them to Town. Sometimes one or two hundred people would attend for the purpose. The Sheriff with his rod of office, and other public officers, and the Bar, would attend on the occa- sion-and each morning, whilst the Chief Justice was in Town, holding court, the Sheriff and Constables escorted him from his lodgings to the Court Room.
" The Chief Justice, when on the Bench, sat with his hat on, and was dressed in a scarlet gown.
" Gen. Washington's head quarters, while at Harris' Fer- ry, on the Western expedition, were in a small frame house, which stood until the last few years, at the corner of Vine and Paxton streets.

" The writer of this has heard his grandmother say, that the whole extent of country, from the west bank of the Sus- quehanna to Carlisle, and beyond, was without timber upon it, when she was young. That the centre of the Valley had not a tree to. be seen on its surface from the South to the Blue mountain. Now it is called a well timbered country.
" The building- in which the first Court was held still stands-the dilapidated log house in the rear of what was Hise's brewery. The Courts were afterwards held in the log house erected on the east or lower side of Market street, on the corner of Market street and Dewberry Alley, which · is nearest to the river.
" The earliest record of a Court reads :- At a Court of Quarter Sessions holden near Harris' Ferry, in and for the county of Dauphin," &c., on the " Third Tuesday of May, in the year of your Lord 1785," before " Timothy Green, Samuel Jones, and Jonathan M'Clure, Esq'rs., Justices of the same Court."
"The Sheriff of Lancaster County exercised the same office for this, then, new county.
" The names of the Jurymen were :
" James Cowden, (Foreman,) Robert Montgomery, John Gilchrist, Barefoot Brunson, John Clark, Rowan M'Clure, John Carson, John Wilson, William Crane, Archibald M'AI- lister, Richard Dixon, John Pattimore, James Crouck, Jacob Awl, William Brown, Andrew Stewart, James Rogers, Sam- uel Stewart, John Cooper, Alexander Berryhill.
" Joshua Elder was the first Prothonotary ; Anthony Kel- ker the first Sheriff ; Rudolph Kelker Deputy Sheriff.
" On the juries for the next three or four terms, we recog- nize the names of many of the ancestors of our present citi- zens-the Cox's-the Keller's-Krause's- Hamilton's- Forster's-Bucher's-Elder's-Rutherford's-Orth's -the Fox's, &c.
" The earliest record of a punishment is the account of one inflicted on Wm. Courtenay and Jesse Rowland, who were sentenced to receive eighteen lashes and pay fifteen shillings sterling, on the 18th of August 1785, between " the hours of four and six o'clock in the afternoon." Several re- cords occur in which punishment was inflicted by lashes and " standing in the pillory."
" At the August sessions of 1786, we find noted, that the

name of the Town had been changed from Harris' Ferry to Louisburg, by " order of the Supreme Executive Council." At what time it was changed back again, we can find no note.
" The law for locating the Seat of Government at this place, was approved 21st February, 1810. The offices were removed from Lancaster 12th October, 1812, and the Com- missioners for the purpose were, Robert Harris, George Hoyer, George Zeigler.
" The Town of Harrisburg, auspiciously begun, has stea- dily advanced. The prophecy of John Harris has been ful- filled, and it is now the Seat of Government of Pennsyl- vania."
LANDIS'S MILL.
NOTES, REMARKS, &C., SEE PAGE 234.
April 16th, 1790, John Harris sold to Peter, John and Abraham Landis a mill seat, the privileges of a dam and mill race, containing three acres of land : subsequently, they purchased a small piece of land from Gen. John A. Hanna, in addition to that purchased from Mr. Harris, whereupon they erected a mill, &c. In 1792, in autumn, the sickness alluded to before, commenced. May 9, 1794, the Landis's proposed to the citizens of the borough of Harrisburg, to sell them the mill and all the other privileges belonging thereto, for the sum of £2600: the first payment of £1600 to be paid in wheat ; whereof £530 belonged to the estate of John Harris, deceased. The balance was to be paid as follows, viz: £500 May 1st, 1765, with interest from date : £500 May 1st, 1796. The Landis's, in this proposition, reserved the house and lot for one year.
In the fall of 1793 and 1794, the fever was of a very ma- lignant character. The citizens of the borough entered upon decisive measures for the speedy removal of what they con- ceived as the cause of the epidemic. Meetings were held,
238

committees appointed, funds were raised and tendered to the Landis's, the mill dam removed, the mill purchased, &c., as will appear from the following extracts from papers, kindly furnished me by Judge J. C. BUCHER, procured by Mr. R. F. Kelker.
At a meeting of the inhabitants of the Borough of Harris- burg, on the 16th day of January, 1795, it was unanimously agreed, that two thousand and six hundred pounds be imme- diately assessed on the property of the citizens of the said Borough ; that one thousand and six hundred pounds of the said sum be collected on or before the first day of March next ; that the remaining one thousand pounds be secured to be paid with interest, in two equal annual instalments, and that the whole (to wit, the sixteen hundred pounds in cash, and the residue in bonds,) be tendered to Peter & Abraham Landis, or either of them, proprietors of the mills and other waterworks, with the appurtenances thereto belong, near the Borough aforesaid, as a full compensation for their property in the same : and, that in case they refuse to accept the said sum as a full compensation for the said mill with the appur- tenances ; that then we unanimously agree to prostrate the dam erected on the waters on Paxton creek, for the purpose of conveying water to said mill, and pay our proportionable parts of all legal expenses and damages, that may accrue on any suit or suits, indictment or indictments, that may be brought or prosecuted in consequence of such act or acts.

dered that the treasurer take up the bonds due to Adam Boyd and to George Allen. Adjourned to Saturday even- ing next at 6 o'clock at M. Berryhill's.
Saturday 11th, the committee met and viewed the dam, and adjourned till Monday evening at 6 o'clock, at Berry- hill's.
Monday 13th met, and the members mentioned the names of persons wishing to borrow money-agreed that the mo- ney be retained in the treasury for a few days longer .- Agreed that on Saturday next at 1 o'clock, the bell be rung and the inhabitants assemble and demolish the rem. of the dam.
Saturday 18th, the committee met, and proceeded with a number of the inhabitants to the dam. Committee hired four persons to open the bed of the creek twelve feet wide, which was done, and the persons employed were paid six dollars which was raised by voluntary contribution on the spot.
Saturday 25th April 1795, the committe met, Peter, John and Abraham Landis attended, and offered to take £2000 for the water right, which the committee positively refused.
April 25, 1795, Peter Landis, John Landis and Abraham Landis, sold to Stacy Potts, Moses Gillmore, William Gray- don, Jacob Bucher, John Kean, John Dentzel and Alexander Berryhill, of the borough of Harrisburg (a committee chosen at a public meeting of the inhabitants of the said borough at the Court Room, on the 7th of April) sold and conveyed to them their mill, &c., for ££2,633, 4s. 6d .- "To hold and to have the said two pieces of lands, houses, mills, mill-ma- chinery," &c., &c.
The following Duplicate exhibits the amount each citizen, &c .. , was taxed towards paying the Landises. The payments were made in three annual instalments; one half of the amount assessed was paid in 1794; one half of the balance in 1795, and the balance in 1796. For example, a citizen taxed £4. had to pay £2. in 1794; £1. in 1795, and €1. in 1796.
