who have erected their household gods
in them can testify that life is quite en-
durable under proper circumstances. 1t
is altogether a question of the ''circum-
stances, - however, and those which were
in use in the State of Ohio when the ''log
houses" were the fashion were not calcu-
lated to arouse any considerable amount
of hankering after them. The above cut
is correct copy of one re-erected in the
grand park of the Centennial EXPOSE
ton, and which has history particu-
larry interesting at this time 1t was
built during the early part of the CEN
tury In Indiana and was occupied by
Gen. William Henry Harrison during
the campaign in which occurred the IA
nous battle of Tippecanoe. 1t was used
in the famous 'log- cabin and hard-cider
campaign of 1910, when the General
was elected President of the United
States, and is in an excellent state Of pre-
servation. This is typical log cabin Of
the primitive variety. Another is erected
on the opposite side of the park, which
indicates the influence of esthetics, and
that Indians were not quite so numerous
or officious in their attentions as in the
neighborhood where the other was built.
The logs of which it was built were
hewn square, and some attempt at SYM
metry was made. The chimneys of both
cabins are faithful reproduction Of one
of the forms in vogue in pioneer times,
when the quarrying of stone for the pur-
pose was considered ''too much work for
a shilling" These rude structures mark
one limit of the time which has elapsed
since the settlement of the Ohio Valley
and Central States, while the magnif-
cent buildings of the Centennial EXPOSE
ton mark the other; or, to express 1t
figuratively, 1888 TO 1888.

MRS. CALEB WORLEY,
The First White Woman Born In Cinoin.
natl, Still Living.


Mrs. Caleb Morley was born In Fort
Washington, located at the corner OF
Third and Ludlow streets, Cincinnati, of
which true reproduction may be seen
in the Pioneer Department Of the Gen.
tennial Exhibition, on May II, 1895. Her
father, George Adams, was cousin Of
Daniel Boone. He was New Englander,
and soldier in the war of the Revolu-
ton, and was mustered out at its close,
either in Virginia or North Carolina, the
records being uncertain on this point.
When Daniel Boone made his second visit
to Kentucky Mr.. Adams accompanied
him and chose it for his home, remaining
there until number of settlements were
started. He was married about this
time. Being commissioned a Major in
the army, he was detailed for Fort Wash
ington, and, with his wife and two boys,
came to what is now Cincinnati During
his stay here Mrs Morley was born.
Subquently Major Adams left the SER
vice, and entered a tract of land six miles
below Dayton, near the present site of
the town of Carlton
Upon the breaking out of the war Of
1919 he again resumed service as SOL
der, and was badly wounded during the
defeat of Gen. Harmar, receiving seven
bullets through the body At tho close
Of the war he moved to what is now
known as Darke County. While there
his daughter married Caleb Worley, in
the year 1916 Mr.. Worley aud his wife
remained there for d time, but in 1928
they removed to Covington, in Miami
County, at which place she still resides.
Although over ninety years of age, Mrs.
Worley enjoys tolerably good health,
although troubled with nervousness,
which has prevented her attendance at
the Pioneer meetings in Cincinnati. Not
only is Mrs Morley the first female child
born in this city, but she is said to be the
oldest living native of the State, and the
oldest member of the Christian Church,
at whose services she is as regular an at
tendant as is possible FOR one of her adj
