Gx/1UE1 northern Ohio, when set
VIVA tiers were few and far
E/1HA between, Frank Corwin,
E/1kLA. Welsh lad of sixteen
I/AT years, found his way
~ thither and began his
~ career as laborer, re-
ceiving at first but two
dollars month, in addition to his
board and homemade clothing. He
possessed an intelligent, energetic
mind in sound and vigorous body,
and had acquired in his native parish
the elements Of an education in both
Welsh and English. The story of his
life, outlined In curious old diary
containing tho records of sixty-two
years. and an entry for more than
twenty-five thousand days, would con-
stitute history of the region, and
some of its passages would read like
hiEh-wrought romance.
His first term of service was with a
border farmer on the banks of a stream
called Grand river, in Ashtabula coun-
ty. II was rather crude farming, how
ever, consisting mostly of telling trees,
cutting wood and sawlogs, burning
brush and digging out stumps, the AK
and piclsax finding more use than or
binary farm implements. Seven miles
down the river, and on the opposite
bank, lived the nearest neighbors,
among them blacksmith, who, in his
trade, served the whole country for
twenty miles around. One especial
part of his business was the repairing
of axes, called in that day Jumping"
or ''upsetting."
In midwinter Franks employer left
q couple of axes with the blacksmith
for repairs, the job to be done within q
week. At this time the weather Is
what is termed Settled" with deep
snow and good slipping" along the
few wildwood roads. But three or
four days later there came January
thaw." Rain and warmer tempera-
ture melted away much of the snow,
the little river was swelled to a great
torrent, breaking up the ice and carry
ing it down stream, and the roads be-
came almost impossible. When the
week was up the farmer wanted the
axes; it was not possible for the horse
to travel, and, after waiting vainly a
day or two for turn in the weather,
Frank was posted off on foot to obtain
the needed implements Delighting in
the change and excitement of such
trip, the boy started before noon, ex-
pecting to reach home again ere dark,
as it was not considered quite safe to
journey far by night on account of the
wolves.
Three miles below, at a narrow place
in the river, was the bridge, consisting
of three very long tree trunks reaching
