Book Description
Excerpt from Our Country and Its People: A Historical and Memorial Record of Crawford County, Pennsylvania No more interesting subject for investigation by the student of historv can be brought to his attention than the colonization Of this continent. The colonization of a county was dependent upon the larger question of the success or failure of the three great nations - the Spanish, the French and the Eng lish - which struggled for the mastery. Over the whole boundless expanse were scattered savage and warlike tribes whose trade was blood, and these had to be met. Penn had no sooner shaken the salt spray Of the ocean from his locks, and set his foot upon the domain granted by royal charter, with bounds as fixed and unchanging as the sun and stars in the heavens, than he was confronted by Lord Baltimore, who disputed his occupancy, and, would be satisfied with nothing less than a sixth part of his possession, and for more than a century Penn and his successors were confronted upon the south, the west, and the north by parties claiming generous Slices Of his goodly heritage. To ward them Off and hold their just rights, and to meet and pacify the red men of the forest, required the utmost stretch Of the diplomacy of the. Peace - loving s-pipit of the founder.
