BIOGRAPHIC At. SKBTOBRA.—W con
tinue this week a few selections from
Prof. Meyer's biographical ilnlchn of the
first settlers of Brush valley. Everything
that relate* to tha pioneer* of the county
I* Interesting, and a* we glance through
the (ketcbe* of our friend the recollection
of more than one old patriarch, of whooe
pertonal trait* and characters we hwd
learned year* ago, wairevived in our mind*'
A* a rule they were energetic, persevering,
prudent, hone*t and God-fearing tnen, and
they left a strong Impression upon the
settlement* that grew from tho beginning
which they made :
CHRMTOFUKR SPANGLKR camo origi
nally from More township, Northampton
county. lie owned a farm east of New
Berlin, Union county, and lived on it
three years ; thence he removed to Brush
valley in 1704 or 1705, and located on the
place now owned by hi* son Jonathan
Spangler. lie bought a Mr. George Hoor
mer'* interest in a leaso for hi* tract and
received hit deed from Mile* for it in 1708,
which showed that it was leased in 1701.
Other parcels were purchased subsequently.
Ui* father-in-law, John Kryder, lived on
tho adjoining farm—now John Krea mer'*
and had come into the the valley several
years before, probably in 1792. Mr.
Spangler built the stone house on the place
which to-day is still a substantial building.
The subject of this sketch, Mr. Spatig
ler, was a man of strong convictions,
moral, religioua and political, and fearless
ly carried them out, caring little for popu
lar opinion. The Sabbath-breaker and
the tippler slunk away at his approach;
the swearer and brawling bully subsided
into silence as he passed ; all evil-doer*
dreaded hi* reproof, lie was an intelli
gent man and a friend of education, taking
a very decided stand in favor of the com
mon school system when that question wss
submitted to a vote of the people. Mr.
Spangler belonged to tbe Lutheran church
until about the year 1800, when he became
a member of tbe Evangelical association.
(See churches.) There are a number of
dcecendant* in Mile*and Potter townships,
Centre county, and many in the west.
Children there were nine; Samuel and
Jacob, who resided in Potter township,
both deceased ; Jonathan, who live* at the
old homestead,—to him the writer is in
debted for much information on various
subjects in this sketch ; Anna Maria, who
was married to Conrad Hare; Susan, who
was married to Solomon Gerheart; Msg
dilena, who was married to Jacob Wcise;
Christina, who was the wife of Mr.
Evans; Either, who was married to John
Belts, and Rebecca, who was married to
Jacob Kreamer. Mr. Spangler was born
May 17, 1766, died Feb. 21, 1866, and is
buried in tbe Lutheran and Reformed
graveyard at R-benburg.
Sometime after Christopher Spangler
moved into tbe valley, hia father George
Christopher Spangler, original >y from
Prussia, came also and occupied the place
n>w owned by Jacob Shullz. Here he
died in 1802. Three of bis other son*
came about the tame time, probably with
him. They were Ili-nry, who become a
pioneer settler of Sugsr valley near where
Tylersville is now situated ; George, a hoc
went to Ohio ; Peter, who removed to
Bald Eagle valley somewhere abouMEagle
ville, thence to Ohio; another son, John,
settled along tbe Sinnamaboning.
PAUL WOLF purchased in 1811 from
Tobias Pickle the mill properly and large
tract of land lying north acrota tbe valley,
known later as the John F-rster properly,
containing nearly four hundred acre* and
now divided up into several separate farms.
Tbe amount paid for the whole was ten
thousand three hundred (10.800) pound*.
(Pennsylvania currency ) In the follow
ing year Mr. Pickle brugh !>*< k a small
plot for a burial ground. Mr. Wolf was
a native of Bethel township, Berks county,

father lived on adjoining farm* there. But
after bis tnarriege Paul Wolf moved to
hi* fatber-in-law* in Betbel township,
Lebanon county, thence to Brush valley
In 1812. He soon was extensively engaged
In business in bis new home, keeping store,
and operating a grist mill, saw mill, full
ing mill, oil mill and distillery. Tbe last
three named were situated on hi* land near
Sbroyer's gap at tbe foot of Nittany moun
tain. These have long since disappeared.
His store was kept in his dwelling bouse,
tbe old stone house at Centre Mill*. Mr.
Wolf was for a number of years a Justice
of the Peace, and hi* name is frequently
met with in old deeds and documents of
other kind*. He was an enterprising eiti
ten and as a man universally esteemed.
He had brought a large amount of money
into tbe valley, but becoming involved in
debt to some extent through bis various
business enterprises, and dying nt n time
of financial depression, his large estate bad
to be sold at a great sacrifice and very
Hule remained after tbe liabilities were
met.
Mr. Wolf was bom July 80, 1772; died
June 6, 1822. Tbe funeral rites on tbe oc
casion of bis burial Ware tbe first religious
exercise* in tbe Brick cburcb at Rebersburg

dedicated soon after. Mr. Wolf leaves a

Tut Oi am Woaas —The trouble be
'•♦♦n tbe employee and the management
of tbe Bellefonle Glass Work*, which
caused a suspension of work for some day*,
we are glad to say ha* been arranged in n
satisfactory manner, and tbe work* will
tmu me operation* to-day. After remaining
long in tdlenea* these work* were started up
a few week* ago, a* supposed, under favora
ble autpicea and with a fair prospect of *oc
ccs*. It wa* rather a discouraging sign
that operations should be suspended so soon
It appear* that last week there was no
money to pay the employee and the conse
quence wa* a *trik*ynd a closing up o f
the concern. We understand from Mr.
Davia, who haa been the active msnagi r
here, that tbie unfortunate stale of af
faire waa in no way altrilutable to btm
lie haa fulfilled every obligation and
promise which be made when be under
took to start up the work*. The fault
seem* to have been with tboea wbo were
to furnish thn working capital. They
failed to coma to tlma with tba fund* and
tbe employee did not feel like working on
empty promise*. Now that tba difficulty
in regard to money be* been overcome,
we trust the work* will continue for a long
tima in *uoca**ful operation. The quality
of glass made cannot be excelled nny where
and ihould command a ready aala in the
