The respectability of the managers would not allow us for a moment to entertain such thoughts; and when we consider the strong inducements the actual settlers had for ferreting out the iniquity, their whole property in many cases being at stake, we must conclude that the murderers were what they appeared to be-Indians.


In the "Holland Purchase " we find an account of a visit of Augustus Porter, of Niagara Falls, made to Presqu'ile with Judah Colt, in 1795. He says : "At that time, all that part of the State lying west of Phelps and Gorham's purchase was occu- pied by Indians, their title not yet being extinguished. There was of course no road leading from Buffalo eastward except an Indian trail, and no settlement whatever on that trail. We

traveled on horseback from Canawagas (Avon) to Buffalo, and were two days in performing the journey. At Buffalo there lived a man of the name of Johnstone, the British Indian interpreter, also a Dutchman and his family by the name of Middaugh, and an Indian trader by the name of Winne.


" From Buffalo we proceeded to Chippewa, Upper Canada, where we found Capt. William Lee with a small rowboat about to start for Presqu'ile and waiting only for assistance to row the boat. Mr. Colt, Mr. Joshua Fairbanks, now of Lewis- ton, and myself joined him. Two days of hard rowing brought us to that place, where we found surveyors engaged in laying out the village now called Erie. Also a military company under the command of Gen. Irvine, ordered there by the Governor of the State to protect the surveyors against the Indians. Col. Seth Reed (father of Rufus S. Reed) was there with his family, living in a marquee, having just arrived. A. Mr. Rees was also there, acting as agent for the Population Company. We returned in the same boat to Chippewa, and from thence on horseback by way of Queenstown, on the Indian trail through Tonawanda Indian village to Canan- daigua.


"During this expedition from Buffalo to Erie, a very remarkable circumstance presented itself, the like of which I had never before seen, nor have I since witnessed. Before starting from Buffalo we had been detained there two days by a heavy fall of rain, accompanied by a strong northeast gale. When off Cattaraugus Creek on our upward passage, about one or two miles from land, we discovered, some distance ahead, a white strip on the surface of the lake, extending out from the shore as far as we could see. On approaching this white strip, we found it to be some five or six rods wide, its whole surface covered with fish of all the varieties common to the lake, lying on their sides as if dead. On touching them, however, they would dart below the surface, but immediately rise again to their former position. We commenced taking them by hand, making our selection of the best ; and finding them perfectly sound, we took in a good number. On reaching Erie we had some of them cooked, and found them excellent. The position of these fishes on their sides in the

water placed their mouths partly above and partly below the surface, so that they seemed to be inhaling both water and air; for at such effort at inhaling, bubbles would rise and float on the water. It was these bubbles that caused the white ap- pearance on the lake's surface. I have supposed these fish had, from some cause growing out of the extraordinary agita- tion of the lake by the gale from the eastward, and the sudden reflux of water from west to east after it had subsided, been thrown together in this way, and from some unknown natural cause had lost the power of regulating their specific gravity, which it is said they do by means of an air bladder furnished them by nature. I leave others, however, to explain this phenomenon."


Mr. Judah Colt, in a manuscript autobiography, says : "In August, 1795, Augustus Porter and myself set out from Canan- daigua for Presqu'ile, for the purpose of purchasing lands- went on horseback to Niagara, where we left our horses and took passage with Capt. Wm. Lee in a small shallop to Pres- qu'ile. On our arrival there we found a number of men encamped in that quarter. The United States troops were erecting a fort. Gen. William Irvine and Andrew Ellicot, State Commissioners, were laying out the town of Erie, and had in their service about one hundred militia troops. We purchased and took certificates of four hundred acres of land each-made but a short stay, and returned the way we came. The season was extremely dry and warm. We suffered much from heat, drought, and mosquitoes. Shortly after my return I was taken sick with bilious fever, which reduced me very low."


The next March, Mr. Colt being in Philadelphia, made an offer to the Population Company of one dollar per acre for thirty thousand acres of land off the east end of the Triangle ; they declined selling in so large a body, but contracted with him to be their agent at a salary of fifteen hundred dollars per year, and all expenses paid by them. Powers of attorney and letters were made out, maps of the country were furnished, and money advanced to purchase provisions, hire labor, etc. In the month of April he set out for the Geneseo country ; at New York laid in stores of provisions, sundry kinds of goods,

farming and cooking utensils such as are generally wanted in a new country. They were shipped to Albany, thence across the portage in wagons, from thence in batteaux up the Mohawk River and through the lakes to Presqu'ile. On their arrival at Oswego, they were stopped by the British garrison there, and only an empty boat allowed to pass to Niagara and obtain of Gov. Simcoe permission to proceed with their load- ing. Shortly after this they were informed of the treaty being ratified by Congress, which was made by Mr. Jay with the British government, and which had been for some time under consideration.

Mr. Colt says : "I arrived myself at the town of Erie on the 22d of June, and my boats with the provisions the 1st of July following, and shortly after proceeded to business. I erected my tent or marquee near the old French garrison, and continued to reside there through the summer. There was a captain's command stationed at this village, in a garrison laid out and builded in the summer of 1795. In August I rode down to Pittsburg, and attended a vendue for the sale of parts of the Erie Reserve ; visited the agent who had the superin- tendence of a portion of the company's lands on the waters of the Beaver ; found the country new, with but few inhabitants ; roads bad, and accommodations poor ; encamped at night, and tied my horse head and foot. The journey was very fatiguing, . owing to the dry and warm season. Returned to Erie in safety, and in September went on horseback, principally alone, through the wilderness to Canandaigua. After making a short visit to my family, returned to Erie, where I continued the business of my agency until the 1st of November. During the season met with considerable opposition from adverse settlers. After arranging the affairs of the company for the winter, and leaving the agency in' the care of Elisha and Enoch Marvin, we set out again for Philadelphia (by way of Canandaigua) on the 4th of November, and after about two weeks of hard labor, and running much danger of losing our- selves, we arrived with our boat at the mouth of Genesee River," etc.


It is said all the white inhabitants west of this river, on the lakes, were those in the garrison of Niagara ; two families at

Lewiston ; a British Indian interpreter, two Indian traders, and one family at Buffalo ; a few settlers and a garrison at Presqu'ile ; a party of New England surveyors with two families at Conneaut, Ohio; one family at Cleveland ; a French trader at Sandusky, and the settlement at Detroit.


The first settlers in Erie County were mostly, as in the case of the Reeds, Colts, Strongs, Judsons, etc., from moral, thrifty, intelligent New England ; or, like the Mileses, Vin- cents, Kings, Hamiltons, etc., perhaps a more numerous class, of the illustrious, historic race of Scotch-Irish-" memorable for their devotion to liberty and religion, and ever ready to die upon the battle-field in the defense of the one, or to burn at the stake as a testimony for the other."


The following touching story, which we have condensed, is found in the Chardon Gazette. Those who emigrate from New England to Ohio in these days (about 1830) when thirty-five steamboats plow the waters of Lake Erie, and hundreds of white sails are spread to the breeze, and pride themselves on their enterprise and self-denial, would do well to consider a case of real endurance and privation which occurred on the Reserve in 1796.


Between Utica and the French settlement on the River Raisin, there were not half a dozen white families, when we except a few scattering infant settlements in Western New York, and the military post at Presqu'ile. Mr. K., the father of one of these families at Conneaut, had important business with the Connecticut Land Company, and was compelled to make the journey before winter. His family had subsisted on provisions brought from New York, with fish and game, and it was supposed a sufficiency was in store until his return. The oldest male member of the family, a boy of fifteen, having been placed in charge, he took his departure. On his return to Buffalo the winter had fully set in, the snow being two and a half feet deep. His absence had already been pro- longed-the family might be in a starving condition, and there seemed to be no alternative but to venture into the wilderness. Having loaded his horse with such necessaries as could be procured for his family, he pursued his course on foot, following the beach of the lake. At an Indian settlement on


89

the Cattaraugus he employed a guide, Seneca Billy, as the pro- jecting bluffs prevented his following longer the shore. After camping out several nights on the snow, he reached Presqu'ile and dismissed his guide. Here he purchased a bag of corn, paying for it three dollars per bushel, and set out for home on the ice. At a fire spring near the mouth of Elk Creek, the horse broke through, and was so injured as to be of no further use, and taking his corn upon his back he reached home the same day. But it was only to consummate his grief, for the family were nearly in a famishing condition. An infant being deprived of its natural nourishment by the low diet of the mother, slowly expired of starvation. The Connecticut Company having a small store of provisions for the surveyors at Cleveland, Mr. K. made a journey there on foot, and re- turned with a barrel of salt beef. This, with the assistance of the man who related the story, he conveyed home on a hand- sled.

A circumstance worthy of note occurred in Erie, December 15, 1796, which was the death of Gen. Anthony Wayne at the garrison. For six years the Indians northwest of the Ohio, consisting of the Delaware, Shawnee, Miami, and other tribes had greatly annoyed the United States, being instigated by Great Britain. A peace was finally negotiated by our Minister, Mr. Jay, and Lord Greenville, and signed at Green- ville in 1795. As the English were dispirited by the brilliant achievements of Gen. Wayne, and the Indians had lost confi- dence in them, and withdrawn their assistance, the terms of the treaty were advantageous to the United States, and the peace establishment proved permanent. Gen. Wayne, on his return home, was everywhere welcomed as the savior of his country ; at Philadelphia all business was suspended, the streets festooned with evergreens and flowers, and all classes participated in the general joy.


The next year (1796) Gen. Wayne received an appointment from Government to conclude a treaty with the North western Indians, and having accomplished this arduous task, em- barked at Detroit, in the sloop Detroit, for the purpose of re- turning to his home in Chester County. Soon after leaving port he was violently attacked by his old malady, the gout, and the


90

usual remedy, brandy, through an oversight of the steward, not being at hand, he became very much prostrated, and in this condition was landed at Erie. As there was no resident physician of any repute, Dr. J. C. Wallace, a skillful surgeon of the army, then at Pittsburg, was sent for with the greatest dispatch, but on arriving at Franklin, mct a messenger with the news of his death.


When Gen. Wayne was brought into the garrison, he ex- pressed a wish to be placed in the northwest block-house, the attics of the block-houses being comfortably fitted up and occupied by the families connected with the garrison. Capt. Russel Bissell probably had command at the time, and it is said the illustrious sufferer met with every possible kindness.


A fit death-bed and silent resting-place for a brave officer and patriot was the old military post of Presquile and its pictur- esque bay. He named the spot for his grave at the foot of the flagstaff. "A. W." on a single stone was placed at the head, and a neat railing inclosed it.


The remains were removed in 1809 by a son, Col. Isaac Wayne, of Chester County, and deposited in Radnor church- yard (St. David's Episcopal Church) which is fourteen miles west of Philadelphia. Dr. J. C. Wallace superintended the disinterment of the body, which was found in a remarkable state of preservation.


On a monument erected by the Pennsylvania Society of the Cincinnati is found the following : " Major-General Anthony Wayne was born at Waynesboro, in Chester County, Penn- sylvania, in 1745. After a life of houor and uscfulness, he died in December, 1796, at Erie, Pennsylvania, then a military post on Lake Erie, Commander-in-chief of the Army of the United States. His military achievements are consecrated in the history of his countrymen. His remains are here de- posited."

WE find Erie County, or rather that part south of the "Triangle," included in Westmoreland County by act of " April 8, 1785. It reads as follows : " That all the land within the late purchase from the Indians, not heretofore assigned to any other particular county, shall be taken and deemed, and they are hereby declared, to be within the limits of the Counties of Northumberland and Westmoreland, and that from the Kittanning up the Allegheny, to the mouth of Cone- wango Creek, and from thence up said creek to the northern -- line of this State, shall be the line between Northumberland and Westmoreland Counties in the aforesaid late purchase."


September 24, 1788, we find the northwestern part of the State, being parts of Westmoreland and Washington Counties, constituting the new County of " Allegheny," with Pittsburg for the seat of justice.


-


March 12, 1800, the Triangle having been purchased and added in 1792, Erie County was erected into a separate county, and Erie designated as the place of holding courts of justice. At the same time, Crawford, Mercer, Venango, Warren, and Erie were constituted temporarily one county, with all county privileges, called Crawford, Meadville being the seat of justice.

HISTORY OF ERIE COUNTY.


April 2, 1803, Erie County was organized for all judicial purposes ; this took place at the house of George Buehler, on the corner of Third and French Streets. [This house is still standing, though in ruins, and has been known for many years as the "McConkey House." In 1813 it was Duncan's and Perry's headquarters ; next the house was kept by Thomas Rees, Jr., and lastly by James McConkey.]


MCCONKEY HOUSE, 1861.


Judge Jesse Moore held the first court.


Erie County is 36 miles in length and 20 in breadth, with an area of 720 square miles, or 460,800 acres ; its central latitude is 42º north, and longitude 3º west.


Its principal streams are Four Mile, Six Mile, Twelve Mile, Sixteen and Twenty Mile Creeks ; west it has Walnut Creek, Trout Run, Elk, Raccoon, and Crooked Creeks. Mill Creek empties into the lake within the city limits. French and Le Bœuf Creeks empty into the Allegheny River. Conneaut Creek flows through the southwestern part, and also, for a short distance, Conneauttee.


These streams afford abundant water power for manufactur-


93

ing purposes ; and while the valleys and rivers are sometimes wild and picture-like, as at Elk, Walnut and Twenty Mile Creeks, the broken and unproductive acres in Erie County are few indeed.


It has three small beautiful lakes : Conneauttee, in Wash- ington township ; Le Bœuf, in Waterford ; and Pleasant, in Venango township.


The dividing ridge which crosses from southwest to north- east (particularly described elsewhere) marks a striking dis- tinction in the county on each side. The bank of the lake at Erie and in the vicinity is about sixty feet in height, and the surface rises gently from ten to twelve miles back, which is the summit of the level between the waters of the lake and the Allegheny River. The southern portion produces ex- cellent grass, but is not ferțile in grain ; the northern, sloping to the lake is well adapted to wheat. One hundred bushels of corn, 30 bushels of wheat, 35 bushels of rye, 60 bushels of barley, 50 bushels of rape, and 500 bushels of potatoes have been raised to the acre.


The original townships were sixteen in number, namely : Mill Creek, Harbor Creek, Northeast, Greenfield, Venango, Brokenstraw, Union, Le Boeuf, Waterford, Conneauttee, Mckean, Beaverdam, Elk Creek, Conneaut, Springfield, and Fairview. Brokenstraw, in 1820, was changed to Wayne and Concord. Amity was taken from Union in 1826. Girard was set off from Springfield and Fairview in 1832, and received its name from Stephen Girard, who had large tracts of land in the neighborhood. Washington was changed from Con- neauttee in 1834 ; Greene from Beaverdam in 1840 ; Franklin was formed of parts of Mckean, Washington, Fairview, and Elk Creek in 1844 ; and Summit, of Greene and Mckean in 1854.


In 1800 the population of Erie County was 1468; in 1810, 1358; in 1820, 8553 ; in 1830, 17,041 ; in 1840, 31,344 ; in 1850, 38,742 ; and in 1860, 49,697. From 1840 to 1850 the increase in Erie was nearly 100 per cent.


In 1850 the cash value of farms was $4,782,858, and of farm- ing implements and machinery, $294,726. The number of horses, 7014 ; of milch cows, 16,575 ; of sheep, 66,705 ; of swine,
