The Pioneer Picnic

The Picnic of the Franklin County
Pioneer Association was, according to APP
pointment, held at the County Fair Grouds
on Saturday last, Oct. 20. There was a large
attendance of the old pioneers, their fami-
lies and friends. 1t was a most pleasant
and delightful social gathering of the old
and young, and many were the interesting
"reminiscences related of the olden times in
the early settlement of our county.
Well furnished tables were spread in the
Fruit Hall, and all partook of the abundant
repast in the enjoyment of much social
chat and gaiety. After the collation., the
company repaired to the Agricultural Inn
plement Hall, where they were addressed
by Hon. S. Galloway, of this city, who r, ad
extracts from Esq. Martins Histor of
Franklin county. The reading OF. these
extracts led to various comments nd rela-
tions by the old pioneers, and General in
terchange of narrative and fInecdote en-
sued.
We give specimen or wo: A squirrel
hunt In lSlSwas mention ed, which was got
tenup by residents ofC Jlumbus and vicini-
ty. OF those who par Cicipated in that hunt
four were present at the pienic-Col. Cook
now OF Sharon to wnship, A. Mooberry, Geo
Whlte' Nelsor4 Foos, Christian Heyl, and
Jesse Baugb man. After the hunt, all who
took part an it, met at Mr.. Mooberry's, and
partook Of dinner prepared by Mrs
Moope cry, who was present at the. picnic
A discussion arose as to who, among the
Oh / residents now living, was the first one
oorn within the present limits of Columbus
1t was generally agreed among the old
pioneers that the person entitled to that
distinction was Miss Keziah Hamlin, now
Mrs. Keziah Brooks, mother of d. w
Brooks, of the firm of Brooks & Merton
She was said to have been born near South
Public lane, on what was then known us
McGowsn's Hill. "-'@'t
In such recollections and memorials Of
the good old times long past bYs the after
noon was passed to the mutual satisfaction
and pleasure of all present. After an agree
ment to hold another picnic on the Fair
Grounds, some time in June next, the day
to be fixed upon hereafter, the old pioneers
and their friends separated with general
exchange of good wishes. "di frl

Freaks of a Runaway Horse.

About four o'clock yesterday afternoon
horse attached to an empty buggy, came
running south down North High street at
pretty rapid rate, Persons on the side
walks attempted to stop him, but as he had
no bride on, probably having slipped It off
when he took itinto his head to run away,
there was no chance to seize him by the
head. On he ran till at the crossing of
State street, he turned, or was turned, east
down that street to Third; thence south on
Third street to Town thence west on Town
street to, High; thence north on High
street to the alley between State and Town.
Turning west into that alley, he entered a
livery stable and passed through it to the
back yard, where he finally halted or was
brought to a full stop. In his wild, mean
dering career he had broken the buggy,
but had himself escaped .uninjured. ;HF

The Fire ON saturday Evening.

Our citizens were startled at about six
o'clock on Saturday evening by an alarm
Of fire. The fire was found to be in frame
building on an alley between Sixth and
Seventh streets and South Public lane and
Franklin street, owned and occupied by A.
Schaup as broom factory. 1t originated
in the upper part of the building, where
broom corn was stored, and was caused, it
is supposed, by anincendiary.
The Fire Department were speedily on
the ground with the three steam engines,
and worked with their usual despatch and
energy. Bypouring constant and copious
streams of water on the burning building
and on the surrounding ones, the former
was partially saved, and the latter entirely
protected. Buildings almost adjoining were
not even scorched. The upper part Of Mr..
Schaup's shop was destroyed, and part of
the lower portion. He lost q quantity Of
broom corn and a lot of brooms. We are
unable TO give any reliable estimate Of the
amount of his loss. O'''H'4' taa' 1

SArdRDAY, Oct. 20.

SATURDAY, Oct. 20.
N The trial in the case OF Whhehurst &
Carly against Joseph Rodenfels was con-
tinusd, The examlnatlon Of Witnesses on
the part OF Rodehfols was not concluded
when the Court adjourned at noon till nine
o'clock Monday morning.
DISCHARGE OF PRISONERS.
No indictments having been returned
by the Grand Jury against the following
persons, the Court, on motion, entered an
order dlscharging them from imprisonment
in the county jail: Eliza Murphy, Heze-
kiah Douglas, John Hearse, Asa Reese and
Z John Wagner. rryvrr -
The above-named Asa Reese, twill DO
recollected, is the person who, not long
since, was arrested at Chillicothe, brought
to this city and lodged in our county jail,
on charges involving two burglaries, horse
stealing and grand larceny, in this-that
on q certain nightshe broke into the stable
Of James III. Neil, there stole . valuable
mare and q set of harness, then proceeded
to the stable of Peter Rhodes, on Eighth
street. south of Broad, took there new
buggy and another set of harness, hitched
Mr.. Neil's mare to Mr.. Rhodes buggy, and
drove the same night toward. Chlllicothe
with suchrapidity that the mare fell dead
In the road short distance on this side of
that city.
Such are in brief the facts as spread be-
fore the public by Mr.. Neil andth officer
who accompanied him to Chillicothe, where
the arrest was made. There is In thepublic
mind some little curiosity to know why
the accused has not been indicted, and how
it has happened that he is now at large. 1t
is common supposition that the witnesses
against him did not appear in Court, as
they were bound to do by their recogniz-
ances, in order that they might be sent t.,
the Grand Jury, We are not officially yad-
'vised whether this was so or not, but ap-
prehend that it was. Is there no. way in
such case of compelling the attendance of
defaulting witnesses before the Grand Jury?
If there is, why was not sIch attendance
enforced in SO fragrant case as the public
were told this, was? sr
We put these questions for obvious rea-
sons. In the case ofthis prisoner, as in
other cases, the county, we understand, is
charged with a heavy bill. of costs, by the
officer making the arrest; the county has
to pay the Sheriff's bill for boarding the ac-
cused, andother incidental expenses grow
ing out rof, his arrest and Imprisonment,
And after all, there is apparently an, entire
failure ofjustice.
We do not impute blame to any one, but
We do say, that in this, as insother cases OF
discharge from imprisonment under SINH
lar circumstances, the people of the county,
and especially the taxpayers, are entitled
to demand, and should have, some explana-
tion from some sourceI n'rEUTgVr

WiIbcrfOrce University.

This institution is located three and a
half miles northeast of Xenia, Greene
county, Ohio. 1t was sold to the colored
people in 1868. They have succeeded In
,liquidating most of the debt. 1t is now
managed and controlled entirely by them
selves. In April, 1866, the main building
of this institution was destroyed by fire.
They are now making an effort to rebuild
have laid the foundation, which includes
the basement story, and are putting up the
western wing Of the main building, which
they desire to complete during, the present
fall. 1t is highly proper that the colored
people should be encouraged In rebuild
ing Wilberforce, University, and in, edu-
eating themselves. j. G.. Mitchell, one of
the Professors of the Institution, is now In.
the city, soliciting aid. We cheerfully
commend this enterprise to the notice of
our moneyed men, and trust they will con-
eliberally. Itisespecially desirable
that those who make such loud professions
of love for the colored men, ana who have
abundant,means, will give with unsparing
liberality they have now the opportunity
of really and substantially benefting their
African brother. Let him have good lift
in Columbus. ---------
