Editors Fayetts County Herald
Having occasion recently to pass
through Fsystte County, | was
struck with the broad extent Of rich
alluvial farming land; the farms
mostly large and well improved
with good fencing, large and con
venient harms, and dwellings built
after the most improved style, many
of them rich and tasty in THEREON
struction, perhaps unsurpassed in
any Of the adjoining counties es.
pecially in the vicinity of Washing
ton and Bloomington, and in the
direction of Midway. These exten-
sive farming districts appear in a
fine state Of Cultivation, and judg-
ing from the large and fine looking
herds Of cattle and sheep that are
to be seen on many farms, indicate
large amount of agricultural
wealth, rarely surpassed any where,
and tell in language not to be mis-
understood, that industry, econo-
my, and good taste, are character
istic Of the inhabitants. The recol-
lection of the writer runs back to a
time when Fayette did not hold its
present pnviable position; but on
the contrary, the larger proportion
of its now valuable lands were con
sidered almost worthless, and many
men Of good judgment in other
things, would have thought 1t a
hard bargain to have had them by
paying the taxes. But even then,
there were a considerable number
of excellent men that had located
and made their homes upon those
lands, thereby showing good judg-
ment far in advance Of many 9th
ers, as the sequel has provep. Yet
at that early day there were a diff
ferent class Of men in some places
in the county; set of "Freeboot-
ers' or kind of Banditti, that caus-
ed much annoyance to the good
settlers by their thieving proelivi-
lies, especially of seasons when the
sturdy buroak and stately whiteoak
yielded their fruit in bountiful pro:
