Saturday afternoon last our town bad
tbe distinction of entertaining Hoses
Paul, Esq., Recorder of Cuyahoga county,
Ohio, which embraces the city of Cleve
land and suburbs, Mr. Paul was onoe a
familiar figure lu tbis section, wbeu Tlo
nesta was a part of Venango county, back
in tbe early part of 1866, when tbe oil ex
citement ran rampart throughout this sec
tion and an acre of swamp land com
manded fabulous figures. Mr, Paul then
followed civil engineering and, with bis
brothers, surveyed and plotted tbat aeo
tion of Harmony township through wbicb
West Hickory creek takes its course, and
be still baa a well preserved map of the
stream and tbe land bordering thereon,
most of wbicb in those days passed Into
tbebajdsof the venturesome oil specu
lator, and indeed much of which is still
held , by tbe decendanls and heirs, ex
ecutors and aasigua of these early in
veslors. Mr. Paul was a resident of West
Hickory wheu the towu of several thous
aud inhabitants was located near where
the buildiugs of the 'Carter farm now
stand, and when two or three bustling
oil towns existed along the stream be
tween its month and four to live miles up.
Tbat was before the prolific fields of old
FagunduB was "struck," thus shifting
the scenes of activity to a higher altitude
and where a number of fortunes were
made in tbe few flourishing years of Us
existence. Mr. Paul delights to return to
the scenes of those early days and go over
much of the ground so familiar to him
then. He still retains some interests in
tbat territory some of which is producing
oil. and it would not be surprising to
learn that be bad added to the develop
menu before tbe summer is over. There
is a fascination about tbe business tbat
one seems unable to wholly shake oil.

ankle sewed up and tbe girls csme along
for a pleaaure trip. Tbe party alarted on
tbe return trip shortly after noon and
bad reached a polut a abort distance
above tbe old Mlchlen mill, a mile from

to tbe right and went over tbe bank,
turning turtle and landing bottom up on

after tbe excitement was over. Mr, De
Woody says be bas no clear recollection

road the tracks showed tbat it ran a hun

Tbe machine was lying wheels up on tbe
