FIRE IN ATHENS.—On Monday evening
last a tire'broke out in CAnnEnt.o Block,
in Athens borough, and beftimtbe flames
could be got under control, that building
and Central. Hall and a large ,building
known es the Brockway house were eon
sumed. By the
_greatest exertions,' the
residence of Mrs. G. M. SAWYER wax
saved. C.Otxnft's Block was a three-story
framed building -; the first floor was occu
pied by the meat•market of Joint M.
JANES, and G. L. EASTEILBOOK'S grocery
store ; the second story as tenements ; the
third floor, or large half, by, the G. A. R.
and Good Templar organizations. Ce •
tral Hall-was a largo wooden •two-s
building ; tho whole upper floor was, at
is known as Central Hall, ono of th best
finished and roomy halls in Bradf rd Co.
The Brockway 'building was o ned by
GEO. LYON, ono of the proprie rs of the
Novelty Furniture Works, al d occupied
/
as aresidenee. The loss in buildings alone.
must amount to ti•om*7,oo to $9,000.

EDITOR Raron4En =I hear. 'numerous
expressions of dsappointment. Since the
appearance of the "History of Bradford
County," for the reason, mainly, that so
largo a portion of the illustrations and ac
companying sketches refer to persons and
residences of the present day instead of
to the older settlers. This may be ac
counted for in some cases, by the difficul
ty of obtaining correct likenesses and/
facts concerning the latter who no longer .
survive. There would seem,.howeverino
excuse for incorrect statements, su e_ as
are given in following instances; and, if
many such occur, it will go• far to impair
credibility of the work as a histery of the
county and its early" settlers/ The pub
lishers probably - obtained these sketches
from the immediate descendants; and for
their insertion we learn,/they have been
liberally paid. Still, it would seem that some
care should have been to test their
accuracy before inser • g gross misstate
.
ntents that may have been . made through t
ignorance, or piompted by-excessive van 7
ity. In the personal sketch between Pagati
242-3, says ,`Jous INott.oi brought the
first cal ding machine into the county from
Cooperstown about 1807." - The first card-
ing machine on Wyalusing Creek was
started by ELISIIA ,REF.T.r.n and GUY
W4r.s, Esq., near 131..teK's Milia n , some
three miles from ,the river, but was soon
inrehased by father, .louts INOITAM,
Jr., and put in operation at. this place,
where he had'alrerly established machin
ery for fulling and dyeing. lle afterwards
bought another machino at Cooperstown,
bringing it dowA the Susquehanna inaoal
nee,' The dettile and ineidenti.of the trip
are fresh in my meniery to me
liy Lim. Tbo remains of . both old ma
chines arc now in my possession.
The same sketch says : "Join; INOIIAM
Started the rust sash factory in Northern
Pennsylvania, if not the first in the State:"
The first sash factory on Wyalusing Creek
was started by WILLIAM STONE on the
race built by JOHN INGHAM for a saw mill:
The machinery was purchased by We.
Sro,,:cp: at Eldridge, Cayuga Co., State of
New York, and run by him fof several
years before JOHN INGHAM became the
owner.
CaliiptOWD, April 13, 18.78,
TUE Methodist church at Wyalusing
which fur some weeks past had been un
dergoing repairS, Was re-opotied with ap
propriate services on Sunday, April 21st.
In 17112, what was called the Tioga
cuit was set on; and WILLIAM COLIUT
was appointed the preacher: The circuit
extended front the south part of Wyalus
ing northward to the pole, and westward
to the Pacific ocean.' Mr. CC/Lilt:UT -nn-
dertook to pioneer the way along the Sus
quehanna, and northward to the Seneca
lake. - Ito had,-a-prea.fhing • placn and
class at GIDEON BA LDWIN!S e who lived
where Mr. InA EnoWN noW floes, and a
preaching place, at - Guy WEt.t.s' Esq.,
who lived on the property now owned by
Eustis LY.wis in Morryall. This was'the
lirst,Methodist preaching in the town and
in the county. It would be a very gre •
satisfaction if we could find the old class
book or learn the names of thoSe who
composed this first claSs En the Wyalus
ing charge, but that most likely will never
be found. Wyalusing continued to form
a part of the Tioga circuit until 1814, a.
period of twenty-one years, when the
Wyalusing circuit was set off, tiro division
line being the §usanelianua river. In 1832
'the Wyalusing circuit' was divided, the
eastern part becoming what was known
for Many years as the Pike circuit. Pre
vious to this the interest began to gather
about the.porthern part. of the circuit and
in 1839 the name was changed from Wya
fusing to Orwell circuit, and the next year
the appointment at Wyalusing was at
' tidied to the Skinner's Eddy charge.
' The apliointnient`Was a-very weak one,
and Methodist preaching was enjoyed but
once a month. GitiForf B,ALtiwis and the
class that was accustomed to meet, there
- had passed away and WTI forgotten,and fOr
year no forin,of Orgapization was main
tained. In 16-43 Rev. Ilf.N nit BROWNS-
CoM BE, the preacher on theTkinner's
di charge, organized a class \by the name
of the "Wyallising and Drointown el. , ss,"
with tWenty-nine Member's, eleven of
whom resided at Wyalusing . ; four \ of the
eleven - were transferred to'Asylum,leav
ing but seven. Eleven .years afteivarci,
in 1854,- there. were-but" eight membe_
but other fields had beeri opened, and the
appointment was transferred to a-cliarge,
which was formed in the lower part of the
county. This year too . the Wyalusing Dis
trict was constituted: with GEORGE LAN.
INN its Presiding Elder. - It is to be re. ,
gretted that at the laSt session of theiOn
fercnce this district has-been dismember
ed and the several Parts attached to tither
districts. We are sorry for the necessity
which compels this change because it loees
a nainelistoric iit the annals of Method
ism, and because it does not indicate an
'advance in the strength- and efficiency of
the Church. In 1854 also, the house of
worship at Wyalusing was erected. It is
a plain brit edifice fifty by thirty-four
feet, - without a belfry, was very plainly
finished on the . inside and cost about -eigh
teen hawked , dolLars. Threw rneu were
largeti instrumental in its erection, viz

On Sabbath morning the. Church was
filled ',Overflowing. After a very able
1 and eloquent sermon by Rev. GRIFFIN, of
the ) ( entenriary Church of Binghamton,
members of the congregation pledged
I themselves to the amount of four hun-
I /dred and eighty dollars, which with the
sums previously given provided for the
payment in full for the repairs which had
been made.
In the evening the sermon -was preach
ed by Hey. Wm) CRArr, of the Preaby
terian Church, after whieh the Church
was dedicated according to the forms pre
scribed in the ritual of the Church. .
The peculiar character of the cervices
at thole-opening is indicative of the spirit
of Christian friendship which prevails he
"tween the two Churches in. this place, and
the harmony which characterizes their
Christian work.
As marking the growth of the charge,
he membership in 1870 was fifty-six and
n 1878 two hundred and fifty-eight.
MY LAST VlSlT.—There is always some
thing solemn in the thought of this being
the last act in ti e life-time of a responsi
ble being; if a righteous act, the individ-
ual will have his or her reward for the
' works of the righteous do follow them,"
but if the oct,is wrong awn is no- means
of altering it. But to my last visit; it was
to see an old brother - of mine in the State
of New York, who I had not seen theic
twenty years past; having heard by the
kindness of a stranger that he had become
very feeble, and in straightened eirente
stances in regard to worldly means and
among strangers; and I was afraid that
he; through pride or for some other cause
would not let me know the worst of his
condition, so I made up my mind to go
and see himi and if possible persuade him
• to come and spend his last days with me ;
behaving no blood relations in that sec
tion, and being a lone man like myself,
now in the eighty-second year of his age.
Having buried his only son many years
ago and his wife two years ago.
• And not feeling safe to travel alone in
this eighty-ninth year of my age, I en-•
gaged my nephew to accompany me—h :
also having a desire to see his Old' uncle.
And having given up all care of myself to
him (under divine providence) we took
the eleven o'clock train at the upper. de
pot 'at Towanda, and reached Albany,
New l'Ork,
_in the evening of the same
day, nothing occurring worthy of note.
The next morning we took an early train
to Niverville. Columbia Co., where we
found my brother near the depot in a
very pleasant section of the State—finind
him well, but the visit being a surprise
and his eyesight poor lie did not know
me, myself having better eyesight than
he, I saw the ELLIOTT features in him at
once, and it proved a happy greeting—
well pleased also to see his nephew, they
soon became acquainted and made their
visit more tangible than I could mine, for
',bey could fillup their pipes and sit dari
together and smoke, whilst myself coul d
.
not indulge in that luxury,. knowing its
dileterious effects upon both our physical
and mental organism, but . I said nothing
for fear it might spoil their enjoyment.
We found Brother in a much better con
dition than we expPcted ; in the wreck of
his worldly matters, which came through
the mismanagement of an adopted son
(who turned out to be a fast horse man),
be managed to save a life lease in a house'
and lot which,he rents to pay his board,
occupying one room himself; that with
what bedding and other things he saved
makes him look comfortable for the pres
ent at all events; and he seems willing to
trust the future.
Ho told me that he had set up his grave *
stone by the aide of the one set at his
wife's grave, and had put a sufficient sum
of money in the hands of a friend to de
fray the expenses
,of his funenit, so I
found his reason for staying where be is
were • stronger than mine for bringing
him home with me, so I gave it up and
contented myself with visiting whilst we
stayed.
In returning td Albany we found our
selves in company of a friend who• has a
residence in Towanda. We were heartily
glad to see him, and he manifested a like
feeling to rds us—especially towards
me—for wren we got out of the car be
took my carpet sack and carried it to the
`hotel for the sake of easing me of the
burden. • ,
After leaving our baggage at the hotel,
we took a walkto the new State Capital,
which is in progress of bidlding.. An
mouse structure all of cut.atone, covering
an arca of four' hundred feet one way and,
throe hundred feet the other, which i

wept to see was what could be seen of the,

connect New York with Brooklyn. To
