Capt. Pelar Grace Passes Away.
Captalo Peter Grace, well and most
favorably known throughout olldom, and
especially, well remembered by many
people In this oommunlty, died st bis
home in Robinson Illinois, Friday, Msr.
27, 1914, alter a brief Illness of pneumonia.
Capt. Judson'a History ol the Eighty
Third Reg't., Pa. Vol., contains tbe fol
lowing brief reference to Capt. Grace's
splendid war reoord:
Captain Peter Grace, Sergeant, enlisted
at Tlonesta, Pa., Aug. 10, ltxil. Wounded
and taken prisoner at Gaines' Mill;
wounded at Fredrlcksburg. Ke-eoliated
Deo. 26. 1863. Promoted to 2d Lieut, of

ana to 1st ueut. Deo. 28, iSttt. Taken
Crisoner at Laurel Hill and re-captured
y Sheridan's cavalry. . Promoted to
Captalo, Feb. 17, 1855.
A pioneer of the oil reglona of Pennsyl
vania, one of the first to answer tbe call
of bis oountry for tbe preservation of the
Union, a veteran who stayed in tbe field
to see tbe end of the war, then returned
to again take up tbe work of developing
the vast resources of a great oil field, a
splendid specimen of manhood bas passed
to bia long borne. Captain Grace entered
tbe oil business a brief period following
tbe Col, Drake's discovery, bis first activ
ity being aa a driller near Llneville, Clar
ion county, where he first beard the call
to arms, when a back passed the oil rln,
in which were a fife and drum and the
following persons now all passed to their
reward: Capt. D. S. Knox, Samuel H.
Haslet, Hamilton Stow and one other
whose name we do not recall, who were
recruiting a company of soldiers for
Ibe war, Peter Grace and bia compan
ion, Mosea Corey, bailed the recruiting
party and asked to be enrolled. Tbey
oould not leave their work Immediately
but said tbey would come later, and tbey
did, joining tbe company at Erie. Both
were promoted to tbe captaincy of Ibeir
company, Capt Corey remaining to Ibe
end of bis three years' enlistment, and
Capt. Grace staying to see tbe end of hos
tilities, and was mustered out with bis
command June 28, 1865.
At tbe close of tbe war be returned to
Forest county, again engaging in tbe oil
business, following It witb varying suc
cess In tbe various local developments
until the early part of 1882 when, in com
pany with Geo. Diminick, be drilled In
one of the historic wellsof ibeoll country,
designated as "646," located in Cherry
Grove township. Warren oounty. It bad
an initial productiou of 2,500 barrels a
day. Other large wells were brought in
in the same district, tbe production of the
pool attaining enormoua proportions,
with a resultant decline In tbe speculative
prlcea paid for orude oil to 65 centa a
barrel.
Captain Grace followed tbe trend of de
velopments Into tbe different belds. in
cluding Bradford, West Virginia and
Southeastern Ohio, and at tbe time of his
death waa operating In the Illinois field,
msklng bis home at Robinson. Possibly
no man bad ao wide an acquaintance or
ao many friends among the oil fraternity
as noneatood higher for Integrity or char
acter. During bis activities in the Forest coun
ty field be waa married to Miss Anna Wig
gins, daughter of Nathaniel Siggins, of
Stewart Run, Forest county. She sur
vives him, witb two children, Mrs, Rich
ard Wrlgbt, of New York city, and Chas.
