An Incident of Life in the Village Named
After Gen. Grant.

IN lnclCenC OF Lie IN Ine village Name q
After Gen. Grant.
II. Zebulon Hawkins memory is re-
vered in the hamlet of Grant, n. Y, as
that of man of phenomenal foresight.
Zebulon rode into the military post at
Sackett's Harbor, n. Y, one October
day back in the fifties, with fat buck
across his saddles pommeL He sold
the venison for double its value to A
lieutenant of infantry there stationed,
who, in addition to the big price paid,
housed the huntsman over night. Zeb
was bit troubled in conscience over
the big price he had put on the deer,
particularly so because of the lieuten-
ants show of hospitality. So he evened
things up year later by naming a set
tlement that he founded Grant in honor
of his host Years afterward, when the
lieutenant became lieutenant general,
Zeb told people that he had foreseen
Grants greatness.
Grant had one hundred and fifty peo-
pie within its limits when l was born
there thirty years ago, and the census
to-day will show but little change It
lies in the very heart of the great
North woods" of New York Grant
people to this day tell the city tourists
who stop there on their way to the
Joe's lake fishing the story of Squire
Harden's Internal machine.
1t was in the spring of 1879. and the
first newspaper that came to Grant
after the snow went out of the road con-
tanned an account of the receipt of an
Internal machine by New York judge.
Internal machines were new to Grant
people, and the story was talked over
nightly at Deodatus Wells general
store. The machine as described was
about the size of cigar-box and was
wrapped in brown paper.
Squire Harden, of Grant. was holding
justice court over in Bethune. a mite
Of a village in our township. when the
account of the machine reached Us.
Bethune people had rounded up some
timber thieves and the justice had given
them the limit of the law in fines and
Imprisonment. He got back to Grant
Saturday night Monday noon a
stranger rode into Grant from the di-
rection of Bethune. and. going straight
to the Harden house, left with Sally
Beecraft, the guides daughter, who
was hired help" a. the Souire's, a
package done up in brown paper. The
stranger then struck out over the rail-
road trail l was a boy Of ten years Of
age at the time, and had listened
open-eared and open-eyed TO the tale OF
the internal machine I saw the
stranger deliver the package 70 Sally;
the New York story with its attendant
horrors rushed over me and !
bolted for the squires sitting
room, reaching it before he had
united the string Of the package !
