Conditions of a supplemental Sale of Lots in the Town of Sidney. The conditions of the sale of lots to be sold this day in Sidney, agreeable to an order of the Court of Common Pleas for Shelby County, last term :- Article 1st. The highest bidder is to be the buyer. Article 2d. The purchaser agrees to pay one-third of the purchase-money in hand ; one other third part in six months ; and the residue in one year from this date. Article 3d. On payment of the first third part, the purchaser will be entitled to a certificate, conditioned to make a deed, on completing the above payments, at the end of one year, as aforesaid ; still it is fairly understood and agreed that if the purchaser, or his assigns, fails to make payment at the end of one year, as aforesaid, then the lots thus sold is to revert back to the county, and money paid to forfeit. Any person buying a lot, and not making the first payment on this day, shall forfeit ten per cent. for disappointment, and lose their bid. June 1, 1820. DAVID HENRY, Director. For our present purpose less could not be written, and more need not be written, touching this subject. Before leaving it, however, for other 126 - HISTORY OF SHELBY COUNTY, OHIO. subjects, it may be well and proper to observe that the seat of justice has been maintained at Sidney since its establishment here in 1820; that the town site was judiciously chosen ; that the growth of the town has been a matter of pride; and that its present standing reflects great credit upon its own citizens, and those of the entire county. More than this will be left unwritten until the town is approached for detailed consideration. PUBLIC HIGHWAYS. Among the first steps usually taken by the authorities of a new county are those looking to the location and establishment of public highways. Their necessity at the outset is apparent ; but, aside from this view of necessity, is the consideration of an early settlement of a question which sometimes gives rise to difficulties in the form of opposition on the part of land holders, who usually form very decided preferences as to location. The mode of procedure was usually action by the commissioners upon petitions presented by residents along the proposed road line. Upon a hearing of such petitions the commissioners, in taking favorable action, would appoint viewers, who, accompanied by a civil engineer, would view and survey the proposed line, and make due report to the Board of Commissioners. In this section the lines first viewed and declared " public highways" were the most important and available routes between the centres of early settlements. Thus among the early roads in this section will be found those leading from Piqua to Wapakoneta; from Troy to Dingmansburg ; from Dingmansburg to Wapakoneta; and from Piqua, or from the Piqua and Wapakoneta road to Hardin and St. Marys. After the establishment of these leading lines, other roads diverging in all directions usually took the roads first established as a starting-point, from which they traced to another main road, or to some township line or natural stream. The pike system, now so complete, was undreamed of by the viewers and surveyors, who, from 1816 forward, trailed their way through the forest in search of a practicable route by which to connect two given points, or afford access to a new settlement or a prospective town. But many things have developed since those routes were traced, equally unknown to the dreams of the men of 1815 and '20. A few references to some of the early roads will show the foundation of the system of public highways in this county. TROY, OHIO, May 26, 1817. It is ordered by the Board of Commissioners of Miami County that William Marrs, George Chiles, and William Robinson, viewers, together with James Cregan, surveyor, taking with him two chainmen and one blazer, proceed on Monday, the ninth day of June next, to view and survey a road beginning on the east line of Miami County, between section 31, township 3, and section 1, township 2, range 13 ; thence to the northwest corner of section 21 of said township 2 ; thence the best way to Dingmansburg ; and make a return to the Board of Commissioners on the first Monday of September next. HENRY GARRARD, ALEX. TELFORD. Attest: CORNELIUS WESTFALL, Clerk. TROY, OHIO, October 13, 1817. Ordered that William Berry, Gardner Bobe, and David Henry, viewers, together with James Cregan, surveyor, taking with him two chainmen and one marker, proceed on the third day of November next, to view and survey a road beginning on the State road, on the east bank of Miami River, section 31, range 1 ; thence the best way to the top of the high bank, where the road from John Francis to the sawmill turns down said bank ; thence with said road to the river ; thence up the river bank to Dingmansburg, through the main street, continued on up to D. V. Dingman's ford across the river ; thence up the west side of the river to James Dingman's, Jr., section 20, township 1, range 7 ; thence to the township line at any point that will embrace the best way to Waughpaughquannatta ; and make a return to the Board of Commissioners on the first Monday of December next. HENRY GARRARD, JAMES FURGUS, ALEX. TELFORD. Attest: CORNELIUS WESTFALL, Clerk At a session of the Commissioners of Shelby County, held at Hardin on the 13th day of December, 1819, it was "Ordered that Abraham Cannon, John Lenox, and Daniel Dingman, together with Benjamin S. Cox, taking to their assistance two chainmen and one blazer, proceed on the 22d inst. to view and lay out a road, as follows: Beginning on the State road from Piqua to Wapakoneta where it crosses Mill Creek in Turtle Creek Township, running northwesterly to Abraham Cannon's, and make report of their proceedings to the next Board of Commissioners." December 14, 1819, a road was ordered to be viewed from the Five Mile Tree on the Musquito Creek road "to the county line on the east side of section 5, town. 2, range 13, at the most proper point for a road to the seat of justice of Logan County." On March 6, 1820, a road was ordered to be viewed and laid out from Dingmansburg, through Sidney and Hardin, to Cynthiana. It was further ordered that a road be laid out from the State road at or near Wm. Morrow's, by Steinberger's mill, to an intersection with the Mill Creek and Sidney road. Also a road from Hardin to the State road at or near the Nine Mile Creek in Loramie Township. Also a part of the road leading from Honey Creek to Musquito Creek. On April 24, 1820, it was ordered that a road be viewed and laid out from Cynthiana to the Darke County line, there to intersect the Greenville road. September 5, 1820, a road was ordered to be laid out from at or near the southwest corner of section 2, town. 2, range 13, to the east line of the county. Also a road from the north end of Main Street, Sidney, up the river to the Dingmansburg and Wapakoneta road near Rodham Talbott's ; thence to the hill near Elisha Kirkland's; thence by Wm. Hathaway's to the Miami ford above George Morrison's; thence by nearest and best way to Logan County line to intersect the Bellefontaine road. Also a road from the south end of Ohio Street, Sidney, to Muddy Run, and down the run to Ruckman's mill. Such was the infancy of the road system, which has become such a credit to the county. EDUCATION. It has been well said that "ignorance and neglect are the mainsprings of misrule," and it is the pride of Ohio that her civilization never outran her schools. Had it been otherwise, civilization must have suffered too greatly to attain the heights it has reached to-day. The school system, with its added strength of years, may still be imperfect, but with all its imperfections who will measure its potency for good! Education was recognized by the constitution itself as the very strength and hope of the State, and it is even more than these. It is the very corner-stone, the chief support, as well as the main defence of civilization. The schoolhouse, like the home of the United States, must be a temple of that divine trinity, liberty, justice, and equality. The man or woman who teaches "the young idea how to shoot," must move in sympathy and harmony with that " hand which rocks the cradle," and is the mover of the world. It is to the mothers and teachers of America that a whole race looks with mingled pride and hope. There is undoubtedly room for improvement in the school system, for progress invites enlargement of the school idea, because that idea is to give character to education. The schools must become more and more the guardians of liberty as they are now its foundation, for it is to be their peculiar province to teach political as well as social economy, and so produce intelligent electors as well as moral citizens. In a government like our own, where each individual is a king, the schools must rise to their highest level, and educate that sovereign power of the individual, so that it will be directed toward the security of the public welfare. In a free land of free schools the day must come when no apology dare be offered for ignorance of governmental affairs, and in that day the ballot will be guided by intelligence and not by prejudice. Political vagaries, heresies, and passions must then vanish before the consuming light which is to radiate from the schools of the future. Posterity will not march up to the cannon's mouth to learn in death that slavery is a crime; neither will any future generation rush upon the bayonet to learn that an " indissoluble union of indestructible states" was formed when " we, the people, in order to form a more perfect union" HISTORY OF SHELBY COUNTY, OHIO - 127 of already confederated States, did "establish and ordain" a constitution. The schools of the future will produce voters who will resent all appeals to prejudice. They will teach that the panacea for a panic consists more in honesty and economy than in the unlimited issue of promises to pay. They will produce voters who will know that money must be earned through an equivalent, and not secured by a government printing and distributing machine. They will teach the difference between promise and payment—between metallic and paper currencies. In those schools it will be learned that a promise is not payment, and that paper has never yet been money. They will teach that in the matter of liberty and happiness the greatest extravagance is the greatest economy, for the more you give of these the more you still retain. They will teach the difference between liberty and license and between happiness and selfishness. They will teach that liberty is the freedom to do good, and that to do good is the highest form of happiness. So much for the system of to-day and to-morrow ; and now glance for a moment at the system of yesterday. The advent of the pioneer in this county antedates the school system of the State, but schools of some class have ever been contemporaneous with settlement throughout the whole Northwest. The settlers came from the older communities, and carried with them a reverence for education which was only strengthened by their contact with the wildness and rudeness of nature. Whenever we find a little band of settlers, such as came here, we find "the school master is abroad." The plan adopted, that of subscription, was the only available one, and each settler voluntarily contributed of his means to provide something of an education for his children. These pioneers were in earnest about the settlement of this country, and well knew where to lay the foundation of that society they were about to rear. True, the schools were rude and feeble, but it was a rude and feeble period, and as proud a tribute as these pioneers wonld have asked was won. That tribute is the declaration that they gave up their very homes for school purposes before they could afford to erect even a log school-house, and actually engaged teachers when all their little means was necessary to provide the physical comforts of life. The first buildings they erected for school purposes were rude and rudely furnished, while the curriculum was simple; but perhaps after all the schools of that day sustained abont the same relation to those of today as these latter will to the schools of the next half centnry. The terms were short and wages low; everything was incomplete; but after all they represented a distinctively physical era, and so must not be measured too closely by the standard of this more clearly intellectual era. They served as a solid foundation for these, and if they had served no other purpose, this alone would entitle them to our grateful consideration. Aside from this they served the immediate needs of their day, and so directly fulfilled their mission. Education was then a luxury as it is now a necessity, and it mattered little if the teacher did " board around," or if the seats were made of "slabs." The range of that education was limited, it is true, and it will ever be so, for the capacity of the human mind under favorable conditions neither has been nor can be measured. That it consisted largely in memorizing need not be denied, for even to-day it is too largely the same. Education should be the stimulation of thought, and not the parrot act of imitation. Too long the mind has been compared to such inanimate objects as the vessel, the marble, and the clay. It is now time to recognize it as a living, acting being, acted upon by its own activities, and not a dead passive object which, like the vessel, the marble, or the clay, may be filled, or chiselled, or moulded at will. It is thought which constitutes the man, and this is the force by which the world is moved. Education, however comprehensive, can only aspire to two objects. Its first object is to arouse the activities of the mind; and the second is the stimulation of these activities after they are once aroused. This constitutes the all in all of education, and that process which attempts to develop the mind without recognizing its inherent forces, must not only fail, but will also do incalculable harm. Original effort is the crying demand of the times, and this presupposes mental activity. This better and completer education is developing year by year. The pioneer schools could not overreach the rudiments, for neither time nor money was at command. Still a broad and firm foundation was laid, and the structure is rearing in greater strength and beauty as time fulfils its purposes. The log school-house gave way to the rude frame buildings, and these in turn yielded to the neatness of the modern buildings of frame and brick. The teacher no longer " boards around," the wages are better, the terms longer, and the curriculum more comprehensive. The buildings are neatly constructed and comfortably furnished. The school is becoming an adjunct to the home, and sometimes provides a more wholesome moral and social atmosphere. The old idea that the teacher is the enemy of the pupil has died away, and confidence and sympathy are supplanting physical force. From this time forward the school will be the object of deepest solicitude to parent, teacher, and pupil alike, and under this condition all will be found laboring shoulder to shoulder in the great cause of education. With such an interest manifested the influence of the schools of to-day will extend from generation to generation as the recognized force of progress, development, and happiness. Travel the highways throughout the county to-day, and the schoolhouse is constantly in view. Go away from the village, and just as the graded school building is losing itself behind the timber or buildings, you find yourself confronted by the rural school-house. You cannot escape them if you would, and if you are a man or woman the fact will cause you joy. Neither can you elude their influence. It is about you, and you feel it, wherever you go in the county. Those little brick or frame buildings are the mileposts along the avenues of education. The villages have independent schools, generally based on the graded system, and divided into separate and distinct departments, but all united under one superintendent. So it is that each child within the county has the privileges of the school furnished almost at the door of the home, until the most valuable of all acquisitions is rendered the very cheapest. RELIGIOUS INSTITUTIONS. It is needless to enter into details at this point relating to the history of religious societies, as they are separately treated under the several townships or towns to which they properly belong. These organizations are here to-day with their " houses of worship" brought within reach of every member of the community. The Catholic church and the various Protestant denominations are represented throughout the county, so that generally an individual may find a church in which he may " worship according to the dictates of his own conscience." The oldest and newest communities in the county are almost uniformly. Protestant; at least this is the case if weighed by majorities, while intermediate settlements were more strongly Catholic. In the old portion of the count or the southern part, Protestantism was contemporaneous with settlement, and the early missionary, probably of the Methodist denomination, visited this section, and held religious services in the homes of the settlers before the era of houses dedicated especially to the worship of God. These missionaries came through the wilderness from the older and distant settlements, generally travelling by horse and saddle as they took their way toward the homes of the pioneers. When it was known one of them was to visit the settlement, messengers were dispatched to give notice to all the settlers within a radius of several miles, and from these distances they repaired to the designated house, many at times being compelled to remain over night. Sometimes in favorable weather it was necessary to hold outdoor services, as the cabin of the settler would not accommodate the motley congregations. Under these circumstances it will be readily perceived that some of the 44 pomp and splendor" of modern religion was wanting, for these were not encouraged by the times or circumstances. Yet, after all, the simpler truths constitute the essence of religion, and the pioneer looked exclusively to these. It was not so much a question of Presbyterianism or Methodism; not so much a question of open or close communion; not so much a question of immersing or sprinkling, as it was a guide to a higher life. The missionary dealt less, perhaps, with incomprehensible doctrines, and enunciated fewer dogmas, but he was zealous even to self-abnegation, and sought to better the condition of men's lives, and strengthen them against adversity. While their doctrines were fewer, perhaps some appeared harsher than may generally be 128 - HISTORY OF SHELBY COUNTY, OHIO. heard declared to-day, but this does not lessen the credit given the early teachers and hearers. The Church, like all things else, has been a growth, and its very teaching is a development. Doctrines taught a half century since have been thrown aside as repugnant to the higher humanity of the people, and derogatory of the justice of God. Perhaps the church, in moving away from some incomprehensible theories and unjustifiable dogmas, has even too far forgotten the simpler truths which underlie religion. It may be that in wandering away for a season in idle speculation touching non-essentials, it came back to toy for a season with gewgaws and ornaments only for recreation. Perhaps this is why, to some extent, the dissensions of the choir, and, for that matter, of the church, hold such a prominent place. We hear of the splendid choir, the costly organ, the stained glass, the brass candelabra, and sometimes of the fashionable preacher, but, we had almost said, the principle of religion is ignored. Sometimes it looks as if it were merely a habit into which people have fallen, and the object of that habit, if any, was to determine which church can build the grandest house, support the most fashionable preacher, and deserve the name of the richest congregation. Perhaps this is all to mark the interval which is to precede that day in which religion is to be a thing of life and conduct, and not a thing of belief and creed. Perhaps religion, the best emotion of the human heart, will yet assert itself in simple charity and good-will, leaving forms and ceremonies to take care of themselves. Perhaps out of. all this will come man's superiority to blind faith, and his contempt for the creed which circumscribes his field of usefulness. It may be that religion will yet be embraced more, because it is intelligible than because it is a mystery; more for its own sake than out of reverence for a cruel past. Clearness is seeking in theology, as elsewhere, and it must yet adjust itself to the demands of the age, and meet the requirements of humane thought. The religion demanded is one of utility, one which will teach men a justice tempered with mercy, one which will deal with life rather than death, and with conduct rather than belief. It is a question of conduct and not of election, a question of deeds, not of predestination, a question of better lives, not of baptism, a question of love, not of fear, as it is viewed by the world to-day. This refers to all denominations, Protestant as well as Catholic, for the semper ides of the latter is not alone sufficient to satisfy the craving of a united mind and heart. Looking then at the distribution of faiths in this county, it will be found that while Protestantism largely prevails and predominates, Catholicism occupies a stronghold in the northwest quarter of the county, and has also strong congregations at Sidney and elsewhere in those portions not wholly Catholic. Of the Protestant portion it may be said that about all the leading denominations are strongly represented, and everywhere buildings of comfort, if not of elegance, may be seen testifying of the wealth of the church. The finest Protestant churches are found in Sidney, while the finest Catholic edifice is found at Berlin, this being probably the costliest church in the county. STATISTICS OF WEALTH AND SETTLEMENT. It is interesting to recall the small beginnings of the infant community which has assumed such great proportions. Take, for instance, the first financial exhibit in which the amount represented by both credits and debits was only a little more than $1100, and then note the deficit of $708. It looks like a small and hopeless beginning. This state of finances exhibited for the period extending from April 1, 1819, to the first Monday in June, 1820. Note next the Treasurer's settlement for 1822, and find the sum of $769 on either side of the account. Still this was a better showing than that of the preceding year for, if it left no surplus, neither did it leave a deficiency. In 1823 a balance of $5.91 accrued to the county. The showing was yet small but hopeful. In 1825, with credits amounting to more than $1300, the exhibit shows a balance of $128 in favor of the county. From these statements hereto annexed a clear idea will be obtained of the financial condition of the county from its organization to the year 1825. Exhibit of Receipts and Expenditures of the County from the first day of April, 1819, to the first Monday in June, 1820, inclusive.

JONATHAN BEATTY, Treasurer. EXPENSES. It is common enough to-day to hear complaints on account of the expenses of the county. Salaries are sometimes said to be too high, and then it is hinted these salaried officers are reckless of their trusts, and prodigal of the people's money. Consequently we hear of "high taxes," until each semi-annual payment of taxes marks a period wherein protests and complaints will abound "thick as autumnal leaves in Valambrosa." It is true county officers, like others, may he reckless or injudicious, and incur unreasonable expense, and it is also true this expense must be met by taxation. Still, it is also true that chronic grumblers and constitutional protesters abound, who can no more help this course than the leper can help his disease. Disease is the right word, and we like it in this sense and connection. Still as it is something of a duty, or, at least, a courtesy to pander to the tastes and desires of the sick, we herewith present a statement of the expenses of the county for 1822, and hope the grumbler at high taxes and that other reader who is pining for "the good old times" will be able to extract a wealth of comfort from its perusal. Exhibit of the orders drawn for county expenses from the 4th day of June, 1821, to the 4th day of June, 1822, to which is added a summary statement of the finances of the county.

As much remains to be said of the actual settlers and localities of settlements, it appears well to introduce this subject at this point, by a presentation of the settlers' names, and the description of the lands entered. Among these names will be found those which appear here and there throughout these pages, until they become familiar to every reader, and it is well to thus identify them. It shows too they were never adventurers, but came with bona fide intentions of permanent citizenship, made their mark upon the community in its every department, and transmitted their names to the citizenship of to-day. In the accompanying statement, it may be proper to observe the significance of the abbreviations. The rule headings " Sec.," " T.," " R.," " Fr.," " Sit.," and "A.," signify Section, Town, Range, Fraction, Situation, and Acres. Abbreviations within the rules indicate cardinal or semi-cardinal points, except M. R., sometimes written elsewhere M. R. S., which refers to the Miami River Survey.
