The accident o f two weeks ago, con­ trary to the expectations of all, ter­ minated-fatally last Monday morning, and we are again forcibly reminded of the uncertainty of life.

Gal- breath was born in Clermont county in 1K0~ and.emigrated-to this vicinity iu company with his half brother, Mr. Ewing, now of Xenia, in .1820, and has lived in this vicinity ever since. -They •made the trip hem from Batavia on loot stayjng__all night in Xfnia with a Mrs Collier who kept a lud^l where Corey’s drugstore now .stands, on the north-west corner of Main and Detroit streets, and the next morning coming to Cedarville which at that time was no town.- There was only three cab­ ins, one where Mr. Gray’s grocery now stands, and one being tlie bouse where Robt. Pigg now(Hives. There was a grist mill where Mr. Mart Bar­ ber’s saw mill now stauds which was used to crack corn and grind rye. The country was a veritable forest with tiie exception of a field here and there that the early settlers had suc­ ceeded in^learing, and the neighbors would be called seven or eight miles to help raise a cabin. There was quite a number of Indians here at that time, their camping grounds lieing near the spring on Mrs. McMillan's farm just north of town. "This place” continued Mr. Gal- breath, “was at tlia^ time known as Milford, but about this time the pike was built from Xenia, here A post- office waf secured anil was c«He<i Cedarville, it, taking its name from the dense growth o f cedars growing along Massie's:creek. . The first post­ master was John Parris and he had his office in a building just back of the IT, ,P. church, presumably the same where Lew Hen»el now has a shoe shop.” About the same time the post-office was secutfcd they also had this made a voting precinct, the voters having before been obliged to go to Xenia.” Mr. Galbreath says there is only one man living here who was- here when he came—Capt, Small. Mr. Galbreath enjoys recall­ ing reminiscences ofhis boyhood days, and as what he has to say is interest­ ing the H erald will try in the near future to have him give a description o f his school days which we know will interest the children, ALL S IZES , STYLES 0 PR ICE S , | -------FOR -------- , PEOPLE OF ANY ,AGE!
