Here husbands and wives were seen to sink in the arms of each other, and borne down by the overwhelming power of smoke and blaze. Wives escaped without husbands, and husbands without wives, parents without children and children without parents, and in some cases almost whole families perished.
The windows and doors of the theatre appeared to be crowded until death in course ensued. Ladies jumped out of the windows, two stories high, and saved themselves whilst some were killed in the fall. Gentlemen did the same, some saved and some perished in the same way, and here I stop to thank my God that I was not at the play, although I have been three times. I got tired with the last play I was at, and determined to go no more, which determination I had kept.
I had gone to bed and had got to sleep, and shortly was awakened by the gentleman of the house saying : "Gentlemen, do you not hear the bell ? The City is on fire." Colonel Evans, myself and others jumped up, stripped on our clothes, and ran toward the flames and in about two or three hundred yards from the theatre we heard the melancholy tale that nearly two hundred persons were burning to death in the play house.
Oh! Here was a scene too desperate for the mind of man to imagine or him to express. The streets full of people of all ranks and sizes, here was the father lamenting his children, the children lamenting their parents, the husband his wife, the wife her husband and servants their masters. A continued screaming, groaning and shrieks from all sides. Persons with legs, thighs and arms broken, some dead outside, and others dying, added to the horrors. Others roasting in the play house, open to the view of all, who were to behold their wretched bodies, in as much as one end of the building fell out, the frying bodies were to be seen.
I am well in health, but have not slept since the horrid catastrophy took place.
And something strange is that not a member of the Legislature is

missing though some are badly wounded in leaping from the windows. God knows how many will die. A great many hurt and a great many died today.
I will write more particularly when I am more composed. Richmond, the place of mirth, is now the seat of mourning.
I discover I miscalled words, the confusion spread over every face, and tears of sympathy from every eye will apologize.

Herman Lodge No. 6, A .F. and A. M., was organized June 14, 1814, under a dispensation from Robert Brough, Right Worshipful Grand Mas- ter of Virginia appointing the following officers: Isaac Coplin, W. M .; George I. Davisson, S. W .; and Joshua B. Badger, J. W.
The charter was surrendered in 1827 and again renewed in 1847 with the following officers :
Charles Lewis, W. M .; James McCauley, S. W .; and James Reed, J. W.
Adelphi Lodge I. O. O. F. of Clarksburg was organized in 1847.
Grand Army of the Republic.
Custer Post No. 8 of Clarksburg, Department of West Virginia Grand Army of the Republic, composed of Union Soldiers, was organized in 1882, the charter having been issued on August 15 in that year to the following charter members :
Lee Haymond, D. P. Morgan, N. A. Shuttleworth, James Callahan, Scott Riley, D. S. Pinnell, James H. Jarboe, Daniel Limer, Francis Gil- more, Alex. C. Moore, Robert S. Northcott, Francis Kavanaugh, George W. McClung, Patrick Mahn, Michael Barrett, Robert S. Gardner.
The following officers were elected to serve until the 1st. January 1883 :
Commander D. P. Morgan
Senior Vice-Com'dr . Robert S. Northcott
Junior Vice-Com'dr . N. A. Shuttleworth
Surgeon .Dr. D. S. Pinnell
Chaplain .
. M. S. Riley
Officer of the day . Alex. C. Moore
Quarter Master.
James H. Jarboe
Officer of the Guard. Geo. W. McClung
Sergeant Major. Daniel Limer
Quarter Master Sergeant F. Gilmore
The Post for many years had a large membership and turned out in large numbers on Decoration Day and other public occasions. But being entirely composed of soldiers who had served in the United States Army during the great civil war, the recruiting ground , was limited, and in course of time the members began to dwindle away until in 1908, when
444

the number having fallen to four or five, it was deemed expedient to allow the Post to be dropped from the rolls of the Department of West Vir- ginia.
The following is a list of those who served as commanders:
Robert S. Northcott, D. P. Morgan, Alex. C. Moore, Alexander Duff, Henry Haymond, M. S. Riley, J. N. David, I. N. Kelley, Jacob M. Swartz. Samuel R. Steel, John C. Peck, Samuel W. Gordon, Leroy Rollins, N. S. Davis, Wm. A. Edgell, Silas Ash.
The last regular meeting of the Post was held December 13, 1907, Si- las Ash being commander, Henry Haymond Adjutant, and Jacob M. Swartz Quarter Master.
The last time the members of the Post met was at the unveiling of the Soldier's monument in the Court House yard, which occurred on May 30, 1908, the unveiling being done by Col. Luther Haymond, who was born February 23, 1809.
Washington's Memorandum.
In the papers of the old Chancery case of Michael Cresan's heirs against Archibald McLean in the Harrison County Circuit Clerk's office is filed a memorandum written and signed by George Washington in re- ference to the sale of a tract of land known as the "Round Bottom" on the Ohio River now in Marshall County. It is written in a large distinct hand and sets forth in detail the terms of the contract in a plain business manner, which is characteristic of all the transactions of that great man. The first two paragraphs are as follows :
"A tract of 587 acres as by patent bearing date the 30th day of Oc- tober, 1784, lying on the Ohio River in the County of former- ly Augusta, is valued at $5,870 be the quantity more or less. It may be taken now at that quantity, or now be determined to abide by the quan- tity that shall be found therein if re-surveyed.
This tract George Washington agrees to lease to Archibald McLean for the term of years, the rent is to be equivalent to the interest of the above mentioned sum of $5,870 at 6 per cent per annum, the first of which is to become due and payable on the first day of January 1800."
After going fully into detail as to the transaction it closes with this sentence :
"I have set too low a price on my land in the opinion of a very ju- dicious gentleman, well acquainted with the land, whom I have seen since I have concluded to bargain with you.
MOUNT VERNON, 6th. August 1798.
GEO. WASHINGTON."
In 1770 Gen'l. Washington made a tour of the Western country for the purpose of locating lands that had been granted him by Virginia for services in the French and Indian wars. It took the party twelve days on horseback to reach Fort Pitt, then garrisoned by two companies of the Royal Irish Regiment commanded by a Captain Edmonson. A collec- tion of about twenty log houses inhabited by Indian Traders had sprung up around the fort and was called the town. This was the embryo city of Pittsburg.
445
HISTORY OF HARRISON COUNTY
The party here left their horses and embarked in a large canoe to make a voyage down the Ohio as far as the mouth of the Big Kanawha River now Point Pleasant. Here Washington selected and located a large body of land and was also called on by an old Indian Chief, who ad- dressed him through John Nicholson the interpreter. He had heard, he said of Washington being in that part of the Country and had come a great distance to see him. He further told him that he was in the service of the French at the battle on the Monongahela when the unfortunate Braddock met with a disastrous defeat. He declared that he had singled out Washington as he was riding about the field of battle with the Gen- eral's orders and had fired at him repeatedly but without success, whence he had concluded that he was under the protection of the Great spirit, had a charmed life and could not be slain in battle.
Washington on his return journey up the river from the mouth of the Big Kanawha made other locations of land on the Virginia or King's side ofthe river, among them being a tract just below Parkersburg, which is to this day known as "Washington's Bottom." and a tract a short dis- tance below Moundsville known as the "Round Bottom."
Colonel William Crawford who lived in what is now Fayette County, Pennsylvania, accompanied Washington on this land hunting expedition and was his agent and surveyor for his lands west of the mountains until he was captured and tortured to death by the Indians near Sandusky, Ohio, in 1782.
It seems that Captain Michael Cresan had some claim to this Round Bottom land, as appears from a letter written by Crawford to Washington November 14, 1774, which says :
"I spoke to Lord Dunmore about your land at Chartiers and the Round Bottom, and it happened that Mr. Cresap was present when we spoke of it. Cresap was urging his claim and I was walking by. He wanted it run for him according to a warrant he had purchased. I then told his Lordship the nature of your claim before Cresap's face; upon which he said nothing more at that time, but wanted me to survey it for him also and return it. I told him I could not at any rate do such a thing, as.I had surveyed it for you."
This conversation took place when Dunmore was returning from his expedition to the Ohio Country, on which Crawford had accompanied him.
Captain Cresap having died in 1775 his heirs years afterwards brought suit above mentioned, claiming that the survey made for Wash- ington contained more land than the plat and report called for.
The Clerk's tradition in this case is that when the Judge discovered that Washington was accused of being implicated in a questionable land transaction, he dismissed the case, saying that any party who intimated that Washington was concerned in improper conduct had no standing in his Court.
Harrison County,
Vs.
Monongalia County.
In the act creating Harrison out of the territory of Monongalia Coun- ty passed in May 1784 to take effect on the 20th. of July 1784, it was pro-
446
HISTORY
OF HARRISON COUNTY
vided that the County Court of Monongalia shall account for and pay to the Court of Harrison County such sums of money as shall or may be paid by the inhabitants of Harrison towards defraying the expense of erecting a Court House and other public buildings in Monongalia County. The pro- portion of Harrison was 24 pounds and 6 shillings, of which amount they had received 24 pounds, 5 shillings and 81/2 pence; a tax for wolf scalps of 97 pounds, 17 shillings and 11 pence was collected in Monongalia for the year 1794, for which the State gave the County a certificate for this tax, which was sold in 1795 for 18 shillings on the pound.
After striking off the territory forming Harrison County there were 343 "tythables" in Monongalia and 282 in Harrison, and it was in this proportion it seems that Harrison contended that the wolf scalp tax should be divided evenly between the two Counties.
Harrison brought suit in the District Court at Morgantown in May 1800 in the name of William Robinson, Thomas Reed, Watson Clark and William Martin, Justices against the Justices of Monongalia.
Harrison sued to recover the balance due her on the public buildings tax and that part of the wolf scalp tax of 1784 which was paid by the people of Monongalia, which became Harrison County in the same year.
The result of the suit was that judgment was rendered in favor of Harrison in the sum of 3 pence and 3 farthings on account of the public buildings tax, and that she recover nothing for the wolf scalp tax, and pay all the costs of the suit.
At a County Court Held August 17, 1796.
William McCleery and John Evans, Commissioners from Monongalia County appeared before the Court in conformity to the order of this Court made last March, and said commissioners alleged that there were wrongs in a former settlement made by John Evans and Benjamin Wilson be- tween the two Counties.
The said commissioners were repeatedly requested by the Court to establish the said wrongs but they refused to do so, whereupon the Court is of opinion that no commissioners upon the part of this County shall be appointed as there appears to be no wrongs to right.
Railroads.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Depot was established in 1856 at the East End at the base of Pinnickinnick on the Jackson place and re- mained there for forty-two years.
In June 1898 it was removed to its present location opposite the cen- ter of the town.
The Monongah Railroad was built 1889.
Short Line Railroad built 1901.
West Virginia and Pittsburgh road to Weston 1879.
