In Memory In sad but loving memory of our husband, father and grandfather, Claude Fidler, who passed away March 18, 1963. No one hears the door that opens When they pass beyond our call, Soft as loosened leaves of roses, One by one our loved ones fall. From our chain these links have fallen, In our land their stars have set, But enshrined on memory’s tablet. Their true worth we’ll never forget. Mrs. Esther Fidler, Don, Emogen and Donna Fidler, Donald Fall. Pound Of Flesh CINCINNATI UPI — Mayor Otto Hasler of suburban Emwood place imposed a new policy in his police court and made no qualms that he was out for blood. His honor said he would deduct 315 from any fines levied against traffic violators if they give a pint of blood to the Veterans Hospital.

WARREN TOWNSHIP Warren Township, comprising the first thirty sections of the Congressional Township 13, Range 4, lies immediately south of Greencastle Township, and is bounded on the east by Jefferson, on the south by Cloverdale, and on the west by Washington. The surface of the township is undulating, and in parts quite broken. The soil is a clay loam, with some excellent bottom lands along Deer Creek. The township was once heavily timbered with oak, poplar, hard maple and beech, with some groves of walnut and hickory, and a plentiful supply of sycamore along the streams. It is drained by Deer Creek, together with its tributaries, which traverse the township from northeast to southwest. Along this stream there are numerous never-failing limestone springs. The early settlers of the township were James Townsend, William Hadden, Samuel Hawn, Benjamin Hawkins, George Pearch, Thomas Brown, John Henderson, Peter Waynick, Alexander Conely, and many, many others too numerous to mention. There were two potteries in this township, one operated by Boyd & Perry, the other by A. W. Welker. One of the marked features of the township was an excellent stone quarry one-half mile west of Putnamville, on the National Road, owned and operated by James Lee. The ledges of rock in this quarry vary from two inches to five feet in thickness. The following analysis of this stone was given as lime, 20 per cent; sand, 20 per cent; gray granite, 60 per cent; almost, if not exactly, like what is called “English firestone.” It was reported that the granite will last 300 years, but this stone will last as long as time. For foundation stone, there is probably none superior in America. It is not affected by change of temperature, and can be quarried in winter as well as in summer. Putnamville is the only post office in the township. Westland, which was laid out soon after Putnamville, had one store for a short time, but now has no business house of any kind. A few houses in close proximity on either side of the National

Road are the only indications left to remind the passer-by of its former existence. Putnamville is situated on the National Road, and was laid out by James Townsend in 1830, on land purchased from Edward Heath. James Townsend also kept the first store in Putnamville. He was soon followed by a Mr. McKane. The first school was taught in the town the same year in which it was founded by Mr. Wakefield. Archibald Cooper built the first blacksmith shop, and earned on the business for several years. John Akin also kept a shop about the same time. Hugh Thompson carried on the first wagon shop, and John Morgan put up the first carding machine. The first grist-mill was erected on Deer Creek, one-half mile southeast of Putnamville, Oct. 16, 1826, by Alexander Conley. Another was built on the same creek, one-half mile seutliwest of the town, in 1834, by Samuel Steele and Dr. D. W. Layman. The conclusion of the history of Warren Township will appear next week.
