| * NEW BRIGHTON 8 BABLY DAYS.
The history of the thrifty and pros
perous town of New Brighton carries the
Bind back to a time when ho man dare
settle on the soil upon which it is now
located. Stories of adventure in semi
aboriginal life are not yet unknown, and
there are goodly old people yet living
whose minds have a vivid recollection of
scenes and incidenta characteristic of
early times, and which show in a marked
manner the stordy character and match
less courage of oar town’s lathers and
mothers. As already shown, its history
brings to recollection the expediiion of
Colonel Boqnet, in 1764, and the build
ing of the B|ock Hons© in >1778- Here
the Moravians had to leave their canoes
and walk'around the falls of Beaver on
their* way to Coscosky. The soil was
drenched with human blood more than
once, in the conflicts between the In
dians and whites, and was the theatre
of tragedies scarcely excelled on the
American continent * Not long® after
Uie close of the revolutionary war, men
began to turn their attention to the
pretty and inviting vales and hills ,of
the present town, and patents were se
cured for a part of the lands upon which
it is situated. .It is now situated upon,
what was in the early history of the
lands known as tracts No. 91 to 95 in
clusive, owned and settled and improved
by an excellent class oi men, as follows :
Tract No. 91, comprising that part of
the town lying below Block House run,
was owned by Mr. Mitchell, one of the
oldest settlers in the valley, and upon
which there was erected a dwelling situ
ated some place near the present resi
dence of Mr. Bird, on & bluff near the
river.
North of this lay tract No. 92, owned
by Thomas Lukens, comprising that por
tion of the town lying below Broadway.
Upon this tract Mr. Lukens bad a resi
dence on the banks of the Beaver, on a
little flat nearly opposite Fallston bridge,
being at the foot of the hill upon which
the Block House stood. The tract is
now covered with the most imposing
and beautiful residences in the town,
and in all respects probably the most
desirable fora good home.
Tract No. 93, lying north of this and
composing in great part Broadway
street, was patented by the Supreme Ex
ecutive Council of Pennsylvania in 1786,
to Elias Boudinot and William Bradford,
the tract being then styled Roxborough.
Messrs. Boudinot and Bradford paid the
State one hundred and eleven pounds
and seven shillings for this large body of
land, and it was sold in 1829 for five
thousand dollars to Benjamin Sbarpless
and David Townsend. The same land,
exclusive of buildings, might now be
bought for the modest sum of $925,000
per acre, which is perhaps a fair increase
in real estate. Upon this tract was a
stone house, located a few feet below
where Bentley & Gerwig’s warehouse
now stands. This building was occupied
by Isaac Wilson in the beginning of the
century, at which time his son, J. W.
Wiloon, planted in front of the house, on
each side of the gate, two locust trees,
one of which is now standing, having
defied the blasts of Heaven for over sixty
years, but is now quietly giving way to
the axeman of to-day, that more room
may be had for manufacturing. This
old relic ought to be sacredly protected
and cared for as a reminder of less pros
perous days.
Next in order is tract No. 94, which
was purchased from Thomas Bradford for
$2,000 in the year 1801,- by Benjamin
Sharpless and David Townsend. Upon
it was located a log house near the canal,
in the rear of the present residence of
William Kennedy.
Tract No. 95 belonged to Hoopes,
Townsend & Co., and upon this tract
was built a log bouse by Joseph T.
Townsend, one of the firm, which is yet
standing, and is known under the fa
miliar title of the Murray House, or, as
formerly styled, “Murray Castle.” There
was also standing, about the year 1816, a
log house occupied byvßenjamin Town
send, on the present site of Evan Town
send’s residence. These were the only
dwelling houses on the site of the town
at the time it was surveyed.
THE FIRST SIGN OF BUSINESS LIFE.
Long before a town was either laid out
or built, or probably ever thought of,
there was put in operation a flouring
mill near Patterson’s dam, known as
Woil’s mill, which was the first mill of
any kind on this side of the river, and
the only flouring mill for some years m
this region. To it with their grain came
men from a distance of thirty miles, a
fact sufficiently suggestive of the discom
fort of the time& There were no well
graded roads for travel at that time, but,
as was generally the case, a single path
large enough for a horse and rider to
passover was the route of transit to the
mill. The old mill was run as late as
1820, and stood until the digging of the
canal, when it gave way to the demands
of commerce.
Some time daring Urn yean 1806 and
* 1807 an attempt was made by a man
named Walton to establish a shipyard in
the present limits of the town, a short
distance below M. 0. Kennedy’s .present
residence.
His idea was that her material, labor,
LBV.
living, Ac., would be bhetp, and that
boats and ships could be built much
cheaper than at any other point. From
here he would float his vessels down the
Ohio and Mississippi rivers for use. He
tried it, but soon fled to more congenial
quarters.
He probably failed to take into ac
count the drawbacks of extremely low
water, and the opposite, of the most
angry and destructive floods. The town
of Hast Brighton the embryo New Brigh
ton of to-day, was laid out in lota in the
spring of 1814.' It was surveyed on tract
No. 94, then Owned by the Messrs.
Townsenck and -Pugh. The occasion. of
the laying out of this village, the eir
comstanoee that gave rise to it, are
briefly related as follows:
To meet the demands of a trade then
springing into life, Jt was thought de
sirable to bnild a bridge connecting
Brighton and these lands. A charter
had been procured for that purpose, pro
viding for the erection of a bridge across
the waters of the Beaver, to connect
Brighton and the site of New Brighton,
stipulating that it should be built in front
of Brighton, now Beaver Falls. The
parties who had the charter desired to
bnild the bridge so that its eastern ter
minus would be on what is now Bridge
street ia New Brighton, but were met
with the difficulty that in so doing the
terminus of the Brighton side would not
be in front of Brighton, and hence won Id
violate the express terms of their charter.
In order to overcome this difficulty, it
was decided to lay out an addition tb
Brighton on the opposite side of the
river, and call it East Brighton. By
doing this the eastern end of the bridge
would be built in front of Brighton
(East) and the terms of the charter com
plied with. This is the origin of the
town, and trivial as it may seem, it is
nevertheless a fact aod an interesting
one. Joseph Hoopee. one of the firm of
Hoopes, Townsend & Co., and who
owned tract No. 95 adjoining the pro
posed new town, was employed as
veyor, and J. W. Wilson was one of the
chain carriers.
Mr. Hoopes also made a plot of the
town, which is yet preserved by Mr.
Wilson. I would suggest to the Young
Men’s Library Associatioh of New
Brighton, that they procure this very in
teresting old document and frame it for
use in their room, I know of nothing
more interesting. While in this di
gression, I would futher suggest that
they provide a suitable frame for the
original patent of the lands of the most
prosperous part of the town, which is
now in possession of Charles Coale, Esq.,
and no doubt could be procured for the
Library Association.
At the time of the survey, a part of the
town was a dense wilderness, covered by
red oak and a heavy growth of saplings.
In order to get through the woods to
carry the chain, Mr. Wilson relates that
be was compelled to carry a hatchet and
chop the saplings out of bis way. The
compensation for this work, he says,
was the first money be ever earned.
BUYING THE TOWN FOB $lOO
At the conclusion of the survey, when
stakes had been placed at the corner of
each square, and the field over,
the proprietors ' and workmen were re
turning along Water street, when Mr. D.
Townsend made the Company an offer
that he would give one hundred dollars
for the right to all the soil from Water
street to the Beaver river, consisting of
about twenty-five good lots. The propo
sition was accepted on the part of the
other proprietors with cheerfulness.
The new town was called East Brighton,
and after the lapse of a few years came to
be known as New Brighton. An amus
ing incident is related of this surveying
at the expense of Mr. Wilson, which is so
very characteristic of the times, that it
will bear telling. It is said of Mr. Wil
son—and frankly admitted by himself—
that at the tiuie referred to be was a
very “queer youth,” full of curiosity,
and uniformly wanted to know the
whys and wherefores of events that were
transpiring about him. He was very
much interested in the workings of the
compass, and had a great desire to un
derstand the mechanism of it. He was
standing by the instrument—close by a
pine tree which formed the corner of
tracts Nos. 94 and 95—closely examining
its various points and fully absorbed in
it, when, to his great astonishment, he
received a stunning blow on the side of
face, which sent him reeling several feet
distant. Recovering himself he returned
to the tree and found David Townsend
standing by the compass. Mr. Wilson
at once inquired why he had been treated
in such a summary manner, and, anxious
to establish bis innocence added, *T
didn’t touch the instrument,” repeating
the words two or three times; Hr.
Townsend kept him in suspense for some
time, and at his leisure turned to Mr.
Wilson and asked him if he knew why
he had struck him. A negative answer
was given and another disclaimer put , in
that he had done nothing deserving such
treatment, when Townsend informed
him that he had struck him to fully im
press upon hiS mind the fact, “that that
little pine tree was the comer of tracts
Nos. 94 and 95.”
Hr. Wilson has never forgotten, but
after an experience of over sixty years,
he does not by any means recommend
this practice as a means of improving
the memory. The bridge connecting the
two towns was built, and stood until the
year 1818, when it was swept away by
the breaking np of the ice. At that

A Powderowt Slipper.
George has for. some tlme patt been at
tentive to * ypnpg (jadjr,; (a Hichlgan
street, whom he baa noticed pa aeye»l
evenings when he called, builljppgaged
on a beautiful
perhaps accidentally, or comparing It
with the size of his ownfoot, he Jhad'jcon
eluded was ope of a pair of aUppeM that
were, no doubt, Intended lor n holiday
present; and George, had once or twice
allowed himself to wander Into . the
pleasant suspicion that they were-Intend
ed for him, although nothing bad really
transpired to justify such a belief.
On Friday evening George called for
the third time during the week. He's
quite attentive, it would seem, and, as
usual, the slipper was progressing finely.
He was fully sure the slippers were in
tended for him, but he Was anxious to
draw the acknowledgment from the dear
angel who was laboring so industriously
for his benefit, another implied acknowl
edgment of her devotion for him. Of
course, he began cautiously :
. “Some onejyou arelmightytbnd of is Jo
become the possessor of those slippers, 1
imagine?”said be.
“What slippers do you refer to ?” in
quired the fair laborer.
“Why, those you are working on so in
dustriously,” replied George.
o “Slippers!” shouted his astonished com
panion. “Slippers! Do yon mean to tell
me, George, that you took this for a slip
per?”
“Why not,” returned George, inadver
tently moving one of bis ponderous pedal
appendages. The movement, though
unintentional, drew the lady’s close at
tention to George’s feet, where she gazed
a moment and then at the
slippers: then, raising her eyes to our
hero, she said: "Well, George, yon are
not so much to blame after all; but
this was really intended Tor .a sofa cush
ion.” >
George takes but little pleasure in
hearing the incident related, but he de
clares he got his foot in it-*-though not in
the slipper. -• .. ; -; ;
In Search of bio Wife.
A few days ago a man who seemed to
be laboring under considerable -excite
ment, appeared at the office of the Craw
forp House, Cincinnati, and inquired of
the clerk in attendance :
“Is my wife here?”
The clerk told him there were several
ladies stopping at the hotel. “What was
his wife’s name.”
“No matter about the name,” said the
man; “she’s so contrary she would regis
ter some other name, like as any way.”
The clerk suggested that he might de
scribe her.
“Well, p’r’aps I. might. She is rather
short; has red hair, and is a little freck
eled. Her nose turns up, too.”
He was informed that no lady of that
description was stopping at the house.
“Well, look a here Mr. Clerk,” said the
wife-pursuer, after pondering on the sub
ject, “that ere woman is cunning as a
fox. She has dyed her hair, like as any
way, and got something to take the freck
les offi but I’d know that nose—she
couldn't get the turn out of that nose,
shure.”
He peeped into the dining room a f%w
moments, and walked off, muttering to
himself: “She’s just the contraries!
woman. Dye her hair in a minute to
fool me.”
