One time when sleeping in his cutter he was awakened by finding himself in the snow, with robesand cutter on top. Once when called in time of high water down the creek he went as far as his horse could carry him; he was met by a man in a boat or canoe who carried him to his destination. Another time when the horse was nearly swimming coming to a high bank and trying to get upon dry ground its feet loosened so much of the earth that both horse and rider were precipitated into the almost ice-cold water. They succeeded in getting out, but the pill-bags floated away. Though his clothes were frozen when he reached home no serious after effects followed, so hardy did this outdoor life make those who endured it. One day in coming down King's Run in a heavy rainstorm, he met a man with a loaded team who was stopped and unable to proceed. While stopping to help the man out of his trouble there came a blinding flash of lightning, followed almost instantly by a terrible clap of thunder that almost stunned him. When he rode on he came in a few rods to a great tree that had stood by the road, completely shattered and the road strewn with the fragments. He would have been about under that tree if he had not stopped to help one in need out of trouble. Many of the people where he went were too poor to even pay for medicine, much less for prescriptions or visits, but he takes pleasure in remembering that he did not refuse to go when called for, even if he did not...

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The History of Ceres and Its Near Vicinity, From Its Early Settlement in 1798 to the Present The same query arises in one's mind in regard to those who form a new settlement in the heart of a wilderness, without roads, and without there being means of subsistence there. Why and how did they come here? To account for it in this case the following is copied from an old manuscript: In the year 1797 Francis King, of London, who came to the United States in the autumn of 1795, was employed by John Keating, of Phila delphia, and others associated with him, to come through the northern section of what was then known as Lycoming county, Pa., to explore the country and examine a large body of land then owned by William Bingham, Esq., with the view of making an extensive purchase, if he should find the land well situated and susceptible to cultivation.
