= LIGONIER, INDIANA

Ligonier, Indiana like most of the proSperous cities of the- state was first setlled by sturdy pionéers from Pennsylvania and many of the .New England states who jland‘ed in the wilderness and laid the foundation for the numerous communities which have deieloped 'into, ‘productive points of commerce and incidentally peace and plenty. : i : r‘ : ~ The name Ligonier was brought from Pennsylvania by Isaac Cavin, one of the founders, who was a native of Ligonier, P. Ligonier Pa, was ‘named after and in honor of Col, Ligo-

nier of Revolutionary War fame, who fought under George Washington the father of the Republic. =~ The spot on whic hthe town stands was for many years a resting place on the great‘ east and west Indian trail and was noted for its wild strawber ries ‘w.-hich grew -in abundance throughout this section in -the summer months. The Elkhart river also abounded in fish and wild deer and other game which furnished the fool supply for the Indian tribes were plentiful. i

The land came to Isaac Cavin hy government grant and believing that its location was favorable for a metropolis that would make his name im-. mortal, he platted eighty acresin 1835 a year before the county was organ ized, and recorded it in the records of LaGrange county. Cavin street one of the first streets named stands as a monument to the founder. |

The first settler was Ward Bradford who built a house on lot No. i, and also had the honor of constructing the first bridge across the BElkhart river at this point. There werc many Settlers however at thiis date in the vicinity of Ligonier, and Isaac Spencer who lived about a mile south was the first to open a general store in a log building. He was the first county clerk and finding merchandiz - ing not very profitable he closed up the store which was opened two years

later by Daniel Stukey. : The first permanent settier in Ligonier vicinity so far as can be tracei was Jacob Wolf who' settled a little west of Ligonier 'as early:as 1831, and those who came to join him wers Gideon Schlotterback, Henry 'Engle, John Hostetter and Adam Engle. Only two or thre families lived in Ligonier in 1840 and almost ten years elapsed after the- platting of (the town before there was any indication that Mr. Cavin's idea began to take shape. sy ~ In 1844 Henry Freer of Fort Wayne opened a general store and the' following year Hugh iller opened the second store The poulation of 1845 was fifty peoplé and when the civil war broke out the -population had reached 1,000. Gk !

' James Latta was the first preacher and landed in 1834, and the first court was held at the house of Adam Engle in 1837. Pl o Ligonier had its first boom in 1852 when it was assured that the Nortkern’ Indiana Railroad: would pass through the village. At this time a number of shrewd business men decid‘ed on Ligonier as a good place to 10cate and bought land and lopened mercantile ' establishments. Several of them were influential and successful Jews, many of whom are still in business or their children. -~ For the size or population there are few towns in the United States which have so many citizens with so high a commercial rating. . .

In 1847 an important industry was established by Taylor Vail manufactured all kinds of iron household utensils besides plow eastings. After passing through Beveral ownerships

Farmers and Merchants Trust Co. - One of Leaders in Civic Growth

One of the chief requisites in community growth is modern banking facilities, and banks in which the people take a natural degree of con: fidence and pride. In this respect there is no city anywhér@f@hat can rank ahead of Ligonier, for with three modern banks, and numerous other financial - facilities, the residents are supplied with every requisite of modern effciency and care. ; ! One of the leaders in this great work is the- Farmers and Merchant Trust Company. This bank has for many years proven its fitness for favor through a master sys: tem of ‘efficient banking ' policies and honest, friendly companionship with - depositors and patrons that is geldom equalled or excelled. Practically very phase of modern banking work is receiving the strict, careful attention of a corps of directors, of: ficers and assistants, who take a na‘tural ‘pride in their work, and who firmly believe in safeguarding the interests of patrons in every manner ' The bank conducts a general bank and trust business, buys and sells high

The clos proximity of Ligonier to Lake Wawasee and other large bodies of water, all of them built up into ideal camping and recreation resorts, forms ani additional advantage that but few cities possess. a 8

Practically every religious denom- : inatlon is represented in Ligonier there \beng: a number of handsome churches ‘with large meémbership and attentive supporters of religious work.

A feature of the city that is highly appreciated by every one is the Ligonier Band composed of some twenty-five artists who have

all received their traing in chatuau quas, eircuses, concert organization and which gives the city one of the best bands in the country every meny ‘ber being a man of reputation and re cord in band work.

pened that the residents many of them, were anxious to have the name of “Main Street” changed to something ‘else, Outsiders thought it was because of the unfavorable newspaper and magazine cominent but such is not the case by any means. As a mat‘ter of fact, the proposition to change the name of Main .street was up’ long before preachers conceived the idea of “Main Street schandal” and Main street supposedly the main business center of any city, is in fact a beautiful residence street, wholly void .of busines establishments thereon. The proposed change was brought up in order that the chief business street of Ligonier would not be confused with the real Main street, in name, but not in business circles. Lgonier has no desire to change any of her street names because of unfavorable comment. We don’t have such com ment here. , { s

Mier State Bank One of Best ~ Financial Institutions in State

LIGONIER TELEPHONE COMPANY MAINTAINS SERVICE FAITHFULLY

There are numerous times when the telephone company is blamed for things, they cannot help, and at numerous times the telephone subseriber complains of service that does. not seem to meet with their approval. However, the average subscriber recognizes that the telephone. COm-*: pany has a big business on their, hands, and 'is confronted with prob-! lems such as the average business man would call beyond his;;m'ea‘ns‘i and scope of work. - In Ligonieér for instance, the Ligonier 'Home Telc“-{ phone Company has operated in a successful manner a telephone exchange that connects a large majority of our residences with places of bus.ness, affords connections with ' the surrounding towns ' and cities and the rural districts. In so doing, the company works .for the betterment of-their service, and always has ‘in mind the efficiency that- pleases: There are many things people woula like to see done, and many things the: telephone company would like to do, but these must all take their proper course, and are . dependent upon resources and facilities, which, rest assured, the Ligonier Telephone Company, through the efficient management of H. E. Inks, will work out "as rapidly as possible, and in the ‘meantime, it pays to call by number, ‘make allowances for difficulties, and it will work to the end that we have [as good service as any community in the country.
