Book Description
Excerpt from Cleveland Illustrated: A Pictorial Hand-Book of the Forest City, Comprising Its Architecture, Manufactures and Trade; Its Social Literary, Scientific and Charitable Institutions; Its Churches, Schools and Colleges During the next three years Considerable progress was made by the new settlement. The population, which at the beginning of [798 numbered fifteen, was increased in 1799 by the arrival Of the families Of Rodolphus Edwards and Nathaniel Doane, the latter numbering nine persons. These new arrivals were ninety-two days on their way from Connecticut. In 1800 several other families came; houses were put up in different parts Of the plateau upon which the City east Of the river now stands, a township school was organized and the children taught by Sarah [)oane. That year was also noticeable for the first sermon, which was preached by the Rev. Joseph Badger, sent out by the Connecticut Missionary Society. We are fortunately able to give a good representation Of Cleve land under the hill as it was in i8oo, taken from a sketch made at the time by Allen Gaylord, Of Newburgh. The mouth Of the river, as shown in the sketch, lies to the west Of the present mouth. TO the left of it is the Old river bed, with a natural mound beyond it. The mound has long since entirely disappeared. The first house seen as the river is entered is that Of Major Carter, which figures conspicuously in all the incidents Of the early history Of the settle ment. Within its hospitable log walls were held the councils Of the settlers, the social gatherings, and the public merry - makings. Close by it ran the trail to the settlement on the hi1], terminating in a landing on the river. The small log-cabin across the trail is the store-house of the surveyors; and still farther to the right Of the picture is the cabin Of the surveyors, which became known as Pease's Hotel. Between the two cabins put up by the surveyors is a ravine with a small stream flowing out Of the side-hill into the river. By the side Of this stream, in the same year, David Bryant built a still-house, having brought the Still from Virginia. The whisky was made from wheat, and was the first the settlers had to indulge themselves with, except such as each family, as they arrived, brought with them for home use.
