HISTORY OF DERBY.

After the meeting of the proprletors
of the town Jan. l., 1891, we find no
record of any other meeting until Jan.
IA, 1895, at which time meeting was
called to be held at Timothy SANKEY'S,
Greensboro, on the 18th of the next
June, for the purpose of appointing a
committee to take bonds of those who
had settled in town, that they would
conform to the rules previously made
for first settlers to make draft of the
town, and to see if anything should be
done by the proprietors toward building
mill or mills.
The proprietors had a meeting on the
day appointed, and chose Eben. Strong,
Timothy Human and Ephraim Strong
! committee to transact business for the
proprietors. 1t was also voted at that
meeting that the following original pro-
prietors who had made pitches in the
town have right to hold the lots on which
they had settled: H. Bardsley. Robert
Brown, William Carter, Eben.. Smith,
BENZ. Williams, Benz Davis, Eben. and
Eph. Strong, Increase Mosley, Samuel
Drakely, Abijah Hyde, Aaron Hinman,
Gordon Curtis, Eli. Booth, Daniel
Smith, Shadrach Osborne and Thomas
Drakely. It was voted at this meeting
that each proprietor have right to draw
one lot of 2l8 acres, of the first division
of lots, reservation being MADE of the
lots in which the persons named above
had settled, and the five public lots. It
was voted further, that as much land as
should be necessary for highways, should
be reserved on each lot of this division.
If any proprietor could make it appear
that he had drawn a poor or worthless
lot in the first drawing. he was to have
the right to draw another lot in the I'd
division of lots. 1t was voted that each
proprietor should be required to give
bonds, that he would clear four acres of
land on his lot each year for five years.
A tax of one penny an acre on all the
lands in town was laid for the building
of roads. This tax amounted to about
$3.50. 1t was further voted at this
meeting that Ebenezer Strong have right
to an extra lot of land if he would erect
mills. The meeting adjourned to meet
at the house of Isaac Hinman in Derby,
on the 29th of June, inst.
On the 18th Of June, 1895, Ebenezer
Strong of Hartford, Conn.,, decided lot
40 acres square to the proprietors of the
town, to be used as public square for
the town; this was to be taken from the
original right numbered SO.
For few weeks, while we are crowd
ed with advertising, we shall be COM
PEELED to make the chapters of this
history short; We hope soon to make
each weeks installments much longer.

Although the national government has
been unduly liberal in the disposal of
public land to railroad corporations in
the West, it still has in its possession
the not Insignificant area of 100000
600 acres, or enough to supply about
eight million settlers with homestead
grant of 16O acres each. Of course, a
large part of this territory is unsuitable
for agricultural purposes, or, indeed, for
any known use, but if portion is nomi-
nally valueless, great deal of it has an
extraordinary value. The land commits
sions, appointed by order of Congress
last spring, report that wooded tracts in
California are worth not less than one
thousand dollars per acre. while miner
al lands in some of the territories have
an inherent value which outstrips pru-
dent calculation. To show how much
public land there now is, compared with
what has been given away, it is asserted
that, in the past century. only S00,000,-
900 acres have been surveyed and sold +;
that is, We have only parted with two
ifths of our public domain.

Q. Cook has moved his goods from
Johnson's to Odd Fellows block.-The
store, meat-market and Bakery on R. r.
street are nearly finished and will be
occupied New Years.
A house and barn on Portland Street,
Summerville, were burned last Tuesday
afternoon. from cause unknown. They
were owned by E. S. Hovey, who had
recently purchased of Charles H. OWN
nell, and were occupied by George Will
loughby, workman in Ely Balch &
Co.'S hoe factory, and lately from Penn
sylvania. A painful circumstance was
the fact that two of the children were
down with the canker rash, and third
had been borne into the family the day
before. As the fire originated in the
barn, sufficient time was given the fami-
ly to be moved to a neighbors, and all
their goods saved. One of the children
died the next day, and Mrs. W., though
PROSTATE, was thought. at last accounts,
likely to recover. The fire companies
were on hand but powerless for want Of
water, that city being suburb" and
! not taker of Flanders water.
