THE BENCH AND BAR OF PENNSYLVANIA
DELAWARE COUNTY
BY D. M. JOHNSON
Of the present counties of Pennsylvania, a number have been constituted by subdi- visions of larger counties. Delaware county is one of these. It is the oldest settled part of what was originally Chester county.
A complete history of the bench and bar of any of these newer counties would natu- rally include all of such history from the earliest times, whatever the name of the county might have been; but if this should be done as to all counties, it is manifest that in a work eovering the whole state there would be many duplications. In view of this fact, the only practical way seems to be to cover only the history of each county since its separate organization, trusting to the history of the parent county to cover all prior events. Naturally this is somewhat unsatisfactory to the pride of the younger county, which believes itself entitled to have all of its history from the earliest times brought all together under the head of the now existing county. This is especially the case with reference to the county of Dela- ware, because that part of what was orig- inally all Chester county, in which nearly all its early history was made, is now Delaware county; and though Chester county is older in name, Delaware county is older in fact; for it was in the territory that is now Dela- ware county that the early Swedish and Dutch settlements were made. It was at Opland (now Chester) that William Penn first set foot on the soil of Pennsylvania. It was here the first assembly of Pennsylvania met and enaeted laws. It was here the first, second and third court houses of the county of Chester were erected-the last of the three still standing on the west side of Mar-
ket street, Chester, which is in Delaware eounty. This court house, which is a most substantial building, is now used as the city hall of the city of Chester. Here the city councils meet, and the mayor and other city officials have their offices in this building. Henry Graham Ashmead, the historian, says that this old court house, erected in 1724, is the oldest public building, in the original thirteen states, now standing in the United States, antedating by several years Fanueil Hall, Boston, and the state house, Philadel- phia. Here the courts of Chester county were regularly held until the separation of the two counties in 1789, when the new county seat was set up at West Chester. It is perhaps no part of this history to recount the war which was waged between the two counties, and how the Chester people went up to West Chester with shotted cannon. and how they peacefully returned after be- ing regaled by what West Chester had to offer for the delectation of the inner man. together with the promise that the West Chesterians would agree to a division of the county ; and so Delaware county was born. and the Delaware county people kept the old court house at Chester, and there they con- tinued to hold their courts until the county seat was removed to the new town of Media in Delaware county in 1850, where the courts still continue to be held.
Lest it be forgotten, it may be mentioned that in the old court house at Chester the voiee of Mad Anthony Wayne was wont to be heard stirring the patriotic blood of the people against the wrongs of the mother country, before the immortal Declaration of Independence was written. And it was in

the Pennsylvania Arms, a hotel now known as the Washington House, which stands on the opposite side of the street from the old court house, that General Washington, on the night after the battle of Brandywine, wrote his report of the battle to the Con- gress. On all his subsequent journeyings from his Virginia home, and when he became President of the United States, Washington made this hotel his stopping place. Though the vandalism of modern progress and im- provement has laid waste nearly all the landmarks of our colonial days, this old court house and this old hotel still stand, just as they were originally built, and the room in which Washington was wont to sleep in this hotel is an interesting spot to the patriot and the antiquarian.
