A LIST OF THE PIONEERS PRESENT.
Addresses By P. S. Kennedy, Ken T. Rlstine Silas Hlatt, John Corbln, J. C. Wtn-
KAte—Good
Music and a Suui|. tnous Dinner.
At the Darlington's Old Settlers meeting yesterday there was a slim attendance in the morning but later in the day a large crowd went to the grove, estimated at 3,000 people of all ages. There were many more old people than is common at such meetings as the list will show. The daywas perfect and the people enjoyed themselves together shaking hands and telling of the "good old times.
Band music and a choir of singers furnished good entertainment. The President, VYm. Harland, called the meeting to order at 10:30. The invoca tion was pronounced by Rev. Mr. Worrel.
The venerable Ben T. Ristine, of this city, was ilrst listened to. Mr. llistine is one of the oldest pioneers in this country. He told of the first sale of oats in Crawfordsville in 1823, when the small brush and stumps of trees were plenty in Crawfordsville. There were but few inhabitants. "We were a-feeble folk then." in 1824 the first court was held in a cabin. The first trial was for stealing a cow. Lie went to the penitentiary. Our next court house was made of hewn logs. Court in those days was a novelty, and many from a distance came to see and hear what the attorneys would say. There were few school houses and fewer teachers and there were not near so wise as Solomon. After this better school houses were built. My school house was 18x24 feet, fire place the whole of one end, the doors were made of clapboards pinned on, no nails and no screws were then in use Ureased paper answered for panes of glass for light. Meetings for worship were held in cabins and private places, and can you doubt that the supplica tions sent up from these humble homes were not as devout and as acceptable as are those now made from our fine and comfortable churches. The first cabins that were built soon went to decay, and. with their occupants, are of the misty past. Civilization lias come very, very rapidly, but fond memory runs back to those days with pleasure. "Fond memory brings the light of other days around me." In looking over our beautiful county seat we can see elegance and refinement which have come to us very rapidly in these latter years. We should be very grateful to a merciful God for all of these blessings. To the young the difference of the first settlement of of this fair land from these days is not apparent. Every child now can have a good school education. Not so in the days of my time. Let me say we did all we could to get a passable education."
Silas liiatt said: 1 years years. I folks are not going much longer. This is a great country but I hope to enjoy the next world better than this. I came here in 1823. Plenty of red men here then and they stayed among us until 1830, then these lands were dickered away from them by slick land traders, who, after getting the Indian drunk, paid for them with trinkets and red bandana handkerchiefs, which the Indian carried with him as sacred."
"I have been here feel that we old to stay here very
John E. Corbin said: "You call this Old Settlers' day, but it is a mistake. It is the second or third generation who have come here. About all the first settlers have passed beyond the river. The farmers were the first settlers. No professional men were here, not needed. The farmers called forth inventive gen ions. Their products were the cause of many inventions and improvements."
James Roberts, President of the Thorn town Pioneer Association, said: "I have lived in Indiana for 40 years and have not lost a meal from sickness. When I first came we occupied but one room, now we have many rooms. Indiana has been good to me and I am proud of my country. I came from England when a boy."
Here the Pioneer Association selected otlicers for the next year as follows: President, M. 15. Waugh Secretary, S. S. Martin. A picnic dinner was then enjoyed by all.
At 2 p. m., Hon. P. S. Kennedy was introduced, who said: "I amglad that extended remarks are not called for or fashionable in late days. It is a misnomer to call these meetings 'Old Settlers' meetings,' for they are only attended by the descendants of the former ancestors. We. here try to contrast the "0 years ago with the presl ent. It cannot be done. The common remark is, 'the old times were the best times.' We forget very much of the privations and discomforts of those old days. It is a delusion. I take issue with such sentiments. I can well remember when I used to take my fishing line and gourd filled with worms, but 1 forget the thorns that stuck into my bare feet. 1 forget when I had the whooping cough and other ills. I cannot forget the times I got a stick of candy, for they were so seldom. A death then was a rare thing and there was a wide-spread comment about it, but nowadays it is not so wonderful, were it not for the expense of the funeral. We are in communication with the whole world.
From this chance to learn at once of all the evil that passes leads many to conclude that we are getting worse as a people, but it is a delusion. Because we hear so much more quickly does not prove this a fact. No other country has what|\ve havefine smooth roads, improved machinery, fine buggies to ride in, fine crops almost every year, the finest grasses and the bluest skies over our heads. We ought to be a happy people. No boy or girl is without a good common school education. A girl or boy can now learn more in three months that he did in three years. Look at the progress in farming. A man and team can do more work in one day now than I could with our plows in my young days, in ten days. In the old days we used to wear out the fertility of the land, now we know better. We keep the land up and make it produce more and surer crops. We hear a great deal about strikes but the old times were bad for strikes 'men struck then for higher wages by striking down the trees, clearing the land to prepare it for their children to cultivate the great crops of to-day. Every year they got more pay out of the fields. That is the kind of strikes that paid. The late strike Jid not pay, but it ruined many.
Everybody ought to devise some plan for employment. If we look around we all might be employed. Horace Greeley said a young man could hire out to another for a short time, but he ought as soon as possible get something for himself. Seventy-five years ago there was not a white man in Indiana, Chicago did not exist. There was no cornfield in Montg mery coun ty. The people came since that time. We all partake something of our fore fathers. We have what they left and we are the most prosperous people on the earth. We are obligated to do all we can to preserve this glorious heritage of prosperity for those who come after us. We must educate our people. All must be so educated that they will execute and respect the law. No use to fight for liberty unless we maintain all law. It is as much our duty now to obey the laws as it was in war times. I am exceedingly-glad to knowthat our rulers in government and ou Governor stood up and vindicated the laws in the late struggle. Let us all learn that this is a union of States,
We have a hope that orr governineu will grow more glorious and become everlasting. No one dare dispute your right to all these privileges. Let us cherish them as great blessings. These to-day, thank God, are our heritages to transmit to those who come after
J. C. Wingate said: "Surrounded by these grand old -people and knowing that you have listened to the old tried and true here today, I will only speal of a few things." He told a funnystory about Nathan, Beach and Win. Oliver, and a cat story that was whopper," if nothing else, it was en gaging and funny. "We live in the world's corn field. No other place can you find acorn field (100 miles wide and 900 miles long. The great corn garden will some day be dotted all over with electric railroads and telephone stations, and this will be one great agricultural city spread over this beautiful plain. It is true that this country bound to go on to full development No (lag floats over a more magnificent country than this. We can not comprehend what will be the development hereafter. Let us teach our children industry and that their fathers and mothers were nature's noblemen, for it took brave hearts to do what they did Let us go to our homes and remember that great things are in store for all of the peeple who came from such fore fathers."
John Tribbett said he had raised wheat on part of the land on which Darlington now stands, tramped the wheat on a barn floor with horses cleaned it with a wheat fan, hauled it to Lafayette and sold it for 37 cents a bushel. He had cut the wheat with a reap hook. It averagee 25 to 40 bush els per acce. He had hauled corn to Lafayette and sold it for 12Ji cents per bushel.uHe had the ague every day for nine months in a year, and had it often and long at at a time.
A little son of F. M. Gouldsberry did himself great credit by a most excel lent declamation which greatly pleased the audience, and brought forth hearty cheers.
The Old Missouri Harmony was used by note by the old ladies and gentle men, and it sounded splendidly to those used to it long ago, and it was quite funny to the young. It was al together well done and in place.
The only feature that marred the pleasure of the day was the gambling that was carried on. Three card monte shell games and dice were used until many boys, and even men, were th losers of big sums of money.
Mrs. Dr. Berryman prepared a sumptuous dinner for the speakers, at her elegant home, and all enjoyed it to the fullest extent.
