the present day, vary with the decision
of Judge Dishop in this case? The
reader must pardon a farther digression.
Judgo Dishop deserves more thau a
passing notice, his name and persou be

Ridgway , that Le is part and parcel cf
its history. Joel Di.-.hoi came to the
place on which he afterwards lived and
died, probably as early as the year 1812
or 1813. It was a quiet spot ; a little
nook, near by the " .summit " which
now bears his name, springs of living

formed a rill ; whooo gurgling water.; in

lived to a go 1 ol 1 age. Judge Dish

which drew (roni Mr. P.idgway n re
mark upon an insinuation, that it was
more the carelessness or dcrign of the
steersman, than from any natural dan.
ger of the slieam. Tlio canr.e was run
up tho Elk creek, (o where tho " Ked
House " now stands. The creek then
entered the Clarion several rods above
its present mouth. It has been filling
up above, and by washing a WAV tho ab
luviai ou the left has finally compelled
the tardy citizens to rip-rnp the shore
to save their stroels. As lafo as 1SU2
there was quite a hirgs garden between
the present street and the creek. Enos
Gillis selected his farm, which was at
the lima " staked out," lines wcro run
and fixed with as much precision as
though it was on ono of the streets in
Philadelphia, Mr. Didgway left nothing
for conjecture in any of his operations.
During the stay of ihe party in " lay.
ing out" this settlement, a largo tor
toise was etiught, Mr. Kilgway. who
was a crinu'iir.acv.r in " turtlo soup "
dressed it, and it f umbilici a meal fit
for nn alderman. This rich treat in the
way of sumptuous living uever failed to
excite a " snnck," whenever alluded to
by its partakers. This was the L"jin
ninj of the settlement of Kidgway.
Enos Gillis did not remove his family i
till 1327, but the intervening time was
occupied in erecting a house, saw.mill
and tanucry and clearing the land. At
the same time Mr. Didgway cau.sod
that portion of the to.vn south of the
turupike to bo cleared and fenced. It
must be borne in mind, that there was
no better road leading- to or from tho
creek thau such as has been described
Notwithstanding all these difficulties to
be encountered tho settlement progrcs.
sed. Mr. James Gallagher came in the
next season (182") with Lis family and
took charge of tho erection of the tan.
nery, and general oversight ot the im
provements. Ho subsequently pur
chased the (arm at tho (now) upper end
of the village, which now belongs to II.
Souther, E-q. Mr. Gallagher was a
skillful mechanic at Lis trade, Lore a
conspicuous part and was activo in tho
organization of towuship schools &e.
His wife was a specimen of a noble '.vo-
nian, and her courage, industry and
judgment wore often brought into re.
quisition, during the trials of their first
" rougliinrr it iu tho woods." Doth
hava died, Mr Gallagher at Kidgway,
where he is buried. Mrs. Gallagher on
her passage up the Ohio, at Louisville,
Ky.. she was returning from a visit to
her daughter who reddes in Mexico.
Mr. Gallagher filled various offices
townclerk, supervisor and magistrate,
Mr. and Mrs. Gallagher's names are
familiar to a great many in this section
of Pennsylvania. Other mechanics
were induced by Gillis to come in, Jacob
Dobbin, sliormi iker, Thomas Darber,
blacksmith, and t.vo or three others.
They all settled ou the east sido of the
Clarion, whilst about the same timo Mr.
Alyworth commenced on the we.-t sido
iu 1827. The h-- ;i. in their inter.
course wuh each ether were obliged to
cross the creek with a cauoc. At the
mouth of the Elk was a deep pool and
a slight eddy extended nearly across the
stream, rendering nuvigntiou &f: if not

After business commenced at It'idg
way iu tho manufacturing of lumber,
it became quite a tax upon those living
nearest the creek, and it was not until
18134 that the tunds could be raised to
build a bridge. Tho first bridge across
the Clarion at Didgway was completed
during that year as also the one at
what is now called " Dridgetown "
across the " North Pol k." In the same
year and by the same contractor was
built tho dam at tho head of tho raco
that leads to " Hughc3 & Dickinsou's
