Laborio a school House was built Noar the pres ent residence of John a. Chapman on land then owned by Isaac Sage and in the spiny of 1822, the first school was established and supported by subscription.

Soon after this a child was lost in Sullivan in Tho month of no vember while out Gath eng Hickory nuts.

About 1s20, a Post office was established at Sullivan on a new route i tinning from Wooster to the Indian Village f now i Ian. This proved a great convenience As it reduced the distance to the Post office nearly Twenty Miles. Salt was a very essential article and Haid to obtain in Conse Quence of Scarcity and want of Means to buy it. There was however a place in the North part of Liverpool whore Salt was made by boiling the water of a Spring. To this place the inhabitants of this Region were obliged to go to obtain their supplies. At one time Daniel and Ira Tilotson John Laborio Henry r. Fer is and Charles r. Sago went and Cut one Hundred and twelve cords of four foot Wood for four barrels of Salt. Thoy were gone from Home Only ten Days and counting two Days to go and come being thirty loft Thom for to Days in which to Cut Tho Wood being nearly three cords per Day to each they boarded at the House of a Man named Kent and lived on potatoes and milk the floor of the House was made of a Shewn Puncheon which made it necessary when any Ono walked across the floor for each who sat at Tho table to catch his dish of later and milk in his hands or risk the loss of its precious contents. The remark is often Mado of persons not earning their Salt we think those men did Viany inc Sonta of the Early settlement of this township would to interesting if i properly told. As nearly tha whole town ship was one common pasture it was often very tedious to be obliged to Hunt their cattle and hogs in Tho almost trackless wilderness. At one time Daniel Tilotson and Uncle John who Don t know undo John a Woro out Hunting when Thoy came across a Fine lot of pigs which Uncle John recognized As being his. They being a Fine or Dor for butchering Thoy concluded to catch them. Accordingly they Sot on Tho dog who captured Ono by one while Tilotson sitting upon to ground held them until he had five when undo John Tore strip after strip from his Tow and Linen shirt and tied their logs. He then left Tilotson in charge of the captives while to wont near two Miles to Rhosa closes and got his oxen and Wagon to draw Thom Homo. Hav ing to Cut his own Road through the Brush it was nearly dark Whon he returned. They now started for Homo Ono going ahead and cutting the Road Onilo the Othor the team. They at length arrived Homo and night As it was preparations were Mado to kill Tho pigs.

At this House was held the first Public show by a Man calling himself an Arab and consisted of rope dancing and throwing swords and knives his head. Admittance 12j cents child in half i the first saw Mill was built by Urben Kelsey near Tho West Lino of Tho township. The first and Only grist Mill was built by John Gale House on Tho farm now owner by Honry veils. Tho first physician who settled in Tho township was or. John Quigley now a noted minister in Tho m. E. Church. Tho first meeting House was built of logs stood in Tho Roar of where the Baptist Church now stands. It was built by Tho methodists and was always open for All meetings when not occupied by their own. The first efforts in behalf of Temperance was Mado by Eruol Lang ind Jesse John son. It being customary to Furni Sli whisky whenever a building was to be raised and As Many of the now settlers were vet y Shoi t of moans to buy it it was resolved b y a few to abandon Tho practice and try to raise their buildings without Tho use of fire water. Through Tho influence of Reuel Lang Esq. Terry Wab induced first to try the Experiment. To had a log House to raise which stood Neaily on the ground where now stands the residence of Reuel Lang he prepared a Good Supply of bread and butter cakes and no drink except and am s ale. Tho neighbors came together and reluctantly put up Tho body of Tho House which was As was the custom named cold water soon after a gentleman was obtained to give an address on this subject at which mooting a pledge was circulated and a number of names obtained among which were Reuel Lang and wife j Johnson and wife Elijah Humphrey. Jonathan Niles and wife mrs. Celinda Snow being first on the list an old gentleman present was asked and urged to sign the pledge but said he would not sign away his lights and was Able to Tonko care of himself if we follow this Man to will find that to filled a drunkard s grave hav ing by reason of intemperance lost most of a handsome property his wife for the same Causa became insane. Two sons it is feared will follow their father unless a speedy reformation takes place. Ono other son who took the opposite ground has amassed a Fine property and raised a Largo and respectable family. At this Timo Thoie is no liquor sold As a beverage and not a Man addicted to intemperance in Tho town ship. What township can say As much the first religious society formed was a methodist class composed of the following members capt. Timothy Culver and wife a r. Ferris and wife and Amanda Culver. It was organized by Rev. James regular meetings wore hold at Tho school House for a few years. Whon not supplied with a preacher some Ono would read a Sermon which More frequently was done by Isaac Sage. An incident that is perhaps Worth relating or is at least rather Amus ing May be told of two of the curly settlers Daniel Tilotson and Reuel Tilotson at this time was an official la the Baptist Church and a confirmed universalist now As they wore frequent 1 j usually1 won error of their ways. Nowr it so happened that each Ino s efforts wore crowned with Success Ai Tilotson Goon became a universalist n Init or and Lang a method let both of which Aro As sanguine in their present belief As Whon arguing on opposite sides and Aro both at this time trying to Disso Minalou their own views.
