PIONEERS uF MONROE COUNTY.
BRIER SKETCHES OF THEIR LIVES,

A correspondent in Adams township
has furnished us the following particu-
lars in the lives of three of the pioneers
of that section:
HON. ELIEL HEADLEY.
Hon. Eliel Headley was born in Bel
mont county. Ohio, Dec 1st, 1910, came
to Monroe county at tue age of II, and
settled with his father in Malaga town.
ship. There were bat few farmers in
that neighborhood when Headley first
penetrated its wilds. A tent was their
dwelling while they cleared land TO build
u cabin and place for well. No man
ever lived in Monroe who could relish
joke or give one better than Headley.
While digging their we'll in Malaga
Headley and his brother waited on their
father while he walled the we'll; and in
letting down the stone in an old tub sus
pended by rope, none the safest, the
old gentleman cautioned the boys about
putting too many in the tuh at once,
threatening the boys with whipping if
they did not obey; but, instead of les
sening the weight in the tu@ young
Headley made it greater; the old man
issued his orders to at once haul him
up so be could administer the promised
whipping; young Headley failed to see
the point and left him alone, not in "his
glory" but in the we'll
His early education Wds received
along with many fogging in an old
log school house, with rail benches and
paper windows After leaving the farm,
he taught school in Malaga, from which
place he moved to Cameron in 1912,
and engaged in the merchantile business,
studied law in 1S4S under John Sinclair
and was admitted to the bar in 1850.
During his. residence in Cameron he
served 9 years as P. NJ, and 9 years as
Justice Of the Peace In 1865 he was
elected to the Legislature and served
two terms. Perhaps, he gave more shape
to Legislation than any member, at that
time, of that body. No fewer than IL
different acts offered by Headiey are
now found in our Revised Statutes. He
was an active, energetic member, a
staunch Democrat, and a warm friend
Of C. L vallandigham, for whom, In
caucus, he voted for U S Senator -
Mr.. Headley still continues the practice
of law, his usual visor still clings to
him, and yet, at the age Of II his aim
with the rifle is as accurate as our boy
,of 20.

The Town of CamerOn--LiquOr.-
Drunkenness.

In Adams township, on the banks of
one of the pleasantest streams Of south.
eastern Ohio. is located the village of
Cameron; perhaps no village Of Ohio
of equal siz, can boast of more inteli-
gence than Cameron, or of citizens more
disposed to right. The God fearing
portion of this community have endeav.
ored to suppress the illegal traffic in ar
dent spirits, but without avail. Nearly
every day of the week witnesses drunk
eness on our street; night is made hid
eous by the jeers and oaths of inebri-
ates; the language of Billingsgate is
continually salu,iug the ears of our chill
dren, and Fish Market is made to blush
AT the ohscenity Of the drunken revcl.
- not by our citizens-but by those who
come here from distance 10 engage in
their drunken brawls and Bachanalian
orgies.
Our ministers have preached against
it from their pulpits-mothers, wives
and daughters have wept over tour
citizens have denounced it, and have set
the minions of the law on the track OF
it,--but what has it availed nothing =
1t seems like everything is powerless TO
snatch our sinking youths from the hell
ish manlel the rum sellers of this beau
tiful village are thro wing around them.
Youth is 5lighted, age corrupted, man
hood dishonored, intelligence sunk to
brute level, all to fill the TIL of man
whom society will not honor and whom
the God of Heaven will not own. Rum
seller, disturber Of the peace, beware {:
our statutes will be put in motion, the
strong arm of the law will be thrown
around you dragging you from the sink
of iniquity, the rum hole, the destroyer

Your internal traffic has stimulated the
cowardly hand Of the assassin, given
boldness to the midnight thief-you

and the author of all woes. We've
warned you, let your hellish sale of that
liquid Of iniqrity stop in our quiet will

you. We again give you notice to STOP
while all is we'll with you.

Summerfield, Carlisle and Noodsfeld to
Clarington, thus building up Darlington
to its present dimensions, making it the
metropolis Of Monroe.
There was no road, at that time, lead
