Luke had romance in his soul, also. On a cold, rainy evening, a few years after Putnamville had been settled, word came to the townspeople that a party of slaves who were being transported from Kentucky to Missouri, had nearly drowned in Deer • reek at the ford of the National

road east of the town.

Benjamin Jones, grandfather of the late Americus Jones of Greencastle, was among those who went to help’ them. A little slave girl, Charity, twelve years old, aroused his sympathy especially, and he at once bought her, took her home, and gave her freedom. .She was raised in the family of his son, Peter A. Jones. Charity, us might he expected, lost her heart to Big Luke, an affection which he reciprocated. They were married, and became the parents of children who are remembered for their devout religious characters. In the home of one of them the Bethel A. M. F ( hurch of Greencastle was organized.

The next will tell of Indian villages and camp grounds at Fern Cliffs and in the immediate neighborhood of Greencastle.—Editor of the Banner.)
